hi all,
Think someone asking about blenders and choppers??
Blenders have blades tt are strong enough to cut ice and can hold large amounts of liquid so u can whip up milk shakes, smoothies etc. Those tt have a glass 'jug' ontop of the machine?
While choppers are more for like chopping up nuts, chilli, onions and cannot make milk shakes/smoothies as the bowl area is v small. U can only add small amts of water to make, say, a smooth chilli paste.
For myself, I've been using the Braun handheld as its compact n convenient. But I bgt another when I needed to puree kimi's food as I don want to mix.. v cheap only, I think $40+. But oso my old one had a crack in the plastic bowl so I cld only chop dry stuff. For other uses, I;ve got separate tools/blenders/choppers.
That is y pple sell a set n u only need to change the top to fit what u want to blend/chop, etc.
Frankly, to buy a blender/chopper now jus for bb use, a bit late lah.. cos soon they can chew very well.
Some of the foods i do use a fork or a knife to chop it up. But with meat, I still blend as scared it may be choking hazard and I really have no time to chop/dice till small small. That is why, the chix spagh u see in my blog, the spag i chop it up and mix together with the pureed chix fillet.
AS diff bb like diff texture, best u don wat ur bb likes best and of cos mus be safe too.
Mine is tis model as v easy to wash up n compact. Was thinking if I need to bring along when travelling oso possible as jus the stick and plastic bowl.
