We bought this to help us chop fresh herbs for making sausage. When we first used it  "what a surprise" it chopped the Spinach, Italian Parsley, Cilantro, and Garlic like it was nothing and even just the right size for stuffing in sausages. All this only took seconds compared to the time we spent chopping by hand. We love this handy dandy little helper in our kitchen. We recommend this for anyone that enjoys adding fresh herbs to pasta, sausage or any dish for any occasion. Our next attempt was puree for pasta noodles, "superb"!
