dont know what "getting into" means -- it's a necessary kitchen appliance. there's nothing to get into. there's some things that can only be made with a food processor, like pesto, hummus or nut butters.

No you can't.
The way blades are on a blender mean you have to have quite a bit of stuff for it to work. I used a food processor for a like a handful of herbs yesterday. That wouldnt work in a blender.
Then you've got the issue of how finely chopped you want it. Lets say you want to dice one onion. In a food processor I can pulse it to get there. In a blender half of it would be mush and the other half would be whole. Doesn't work.
Pesto is the best use I've gotten out of mine, but you end up using a ton of basil. It's taken two of those big living basil plats you pick up at the grocery store. Absolute decadence.
you have to go to ethnic stores to get shit like this for non-exorbitant prices, white ppl grocery stores rip you the fuck off for some tiny pink dick packet of fresh herbs.
ethnics actually use fresh herbs in big quantities

i dont use it that much tbh. if you wanna make a bunch of homemade hash browns every once in a while its fun. dough i do in a stand mixer. food processor is really only necessary if youre cooking for 10 people which obviously no one does anymore.

I poasted ITT about wife not running it if it’s not full. Tbf it’s gotten better. Sometimes she even runs it on her own.
Still struggling with ttt hard water. Once in a while we need to soak and scrub all of our daily drinking glasses in vinegar water to make them not look disgusting.

For its own sake, sure; however, when there’s room for the half sink of dishes that’s otherwise going to turn into concrete that for some reason I am going to be the one to hand wash at 1am or try to get in tomorrow’s load (which then just back us up further or—if I run it in the morning with a fresh load—risks a significant chance of her forcing dirty stuff into the clean load in the afternoon because she can’t be bothered to keep track), it’s worth it. Women also can’t seem to understand the water pattern and how to minimize the chance of items either not getting clean or ending up with an upturned cup or bowl full of filthy rinse water at the end of the cycle. There’s some female spatial reasoning issue as to why they can’t do this as well as peer-IQ men.

>which then just back us up further or....
yes, women dont understand the WORKFLOW of kitchen cleanup.
we hand wash a lot of stuff -- not dishwasher safe, or any dairy equipment bc we dont have a dairy dishwasher. wife doesnt understand that the drying rack should be emptied before doing the next set of washing dishes so that you dont put newly washed and wet shit mixed in with the already dry stuff so now that you have a overfull drying rack with everything now wet from the new water from the newly washed stuff.

Cr. When I cook, first thing I do is clean up the kitchen, empty dishwasher and sink, prep foods, set up table or at least have plates ready to go, make sure condiments are ready, etc. so the flow makes sense and we don’t get in a pinch and aren’t eating cold food because I didn’t have it together.
Wife will often run into chaos with no plates ready, table not set, no pitcher or glasses of water, etc. when food is ready. It doesn’t take any extra time (or if you’re disciplined you can do it while stuff is cooking / roasting, but that’s level 2). Also cannot clean as she goes. There will be piles of dishes, stuff for compost, oven mitts, etc. scattered around the kitchen. It’s chaotic. We didn’t cook together for about 15 years because we were too stressed by the other’s style.
You and I both have smart wives but there’s something about their brains that make them poor at executing this.
for us, we've figured out that what works is for me to be the sous chef / ongoing cleanup help. she's smart and on one hand there's something wrong with her brain on this, but on the other hand, she has a point that it sometimes makes sense to just get started chopping and get going on a dish that may take 20 minutes to sit in an oven/pot or even 5-10 minutes and then use that downtime to clean up as you go. but it never works out that way -- unless i'm involved doing ongoing cleanup.

Cq. This and kneading dough is how ours gets used. Maybe every 2 months.
The thing we never use is this GIANT wood cutting board my wife asked for and received as a gift. It’s so heavy and impossible to wash without getting water everywhere. It takes up most of two cabinets. I want to throw it away.

You need to have a big enough kitchen to where you put it out on display. It's to give the illusion that you're always making fresh cookies with your beautiful, color matched stand mixer.
(but really you just use a hand mixer because its 100x easier to wash)
