Claim 9:
10. A manual food shredding device comprising:
a base configured for positioning on a horizontal surface;
a plurality of pads attached to a lower face of the base, the pads comprising textured rubber, textured silicone, or textured elastomer, wherein the pads are configured for frictionally engaging the horizontal surface, the base being ovoid;
an upright bowl attached to an upper face of the base proximate to a first end of the base, wherein the upright bowl is configured for positioning of a food item;
a plurality of first spikes attached to and extending from a bottom of the upright bowl toward a top of the upright bowl, the first spikes being multifaceted pyramid shaped, such that each first spike comprises a plurality of first cutting edges, the plurality of first spikes comprising one first spike extending axially from the bottom and first spikes extending circumferentially around a circumference of the bottom, such that the plurality of first spikes defines a channel;
a disc attached to the bottom of the upright bowl, a perimeter of the disc being externally threaded;
a ring attached to the upper face of the base, the ring being internally threaded, such that the ring is complementary to the disc and such that the disc is selectively threadedly insertable into the ring for removably attaching the upright bowl to the base;
an inverted bowl circumferentially larger than the upright bowl, such that the upright bowl is selectively insertable into the inverted bowl, the inverted bowl being sized such that an upper end of the inverted bowl rests upon the top of the upright bowl and such that a sidewall of the inverted bowl is adjacent to a sidewall of the upright bowl;
a plurality of second spikes attached to and extending from the upper end of the inverted bowl toward a lower end of the inverted bowl, wherein the inverted bowl is configured for grasping in a hand of a user, positioning the user for rotating the inverted bowl relative to the upright bowl, such that the first spikes and the second spikes shred the food item, the second spikes being multifaceted pyramid shaped, such that each second spike comprises a plurality of second cutting edges, the plurality of second spikes being circularly arrayed around a center of the inverted bowl, such that the second spikes extend into the channel upon positioning of the inverted bowl on the upright bowl;
a first handle fixedly attached to the base proximate to a second end of the base; and
a second handle rotationally attached to the upper end proximate to an outer circumference of the inverted bowl, wherein the first handle and the second handle are configured for grasping in first and second hands of a user, respectively, positioning the user for stabilizing the base and for rotating the inverted bowl relative to the upright bowl for shredding the food item.
