Abstract

A slicing/shaving method includes the steps providing a slicing/shaving edge of a generally arcuate configuration, rotating the slicing/shaving edge along a circular path of travel with the slicing/shaving edge disposed at an angle other than parallel thereto, and guiding a food product along a food product feed path disposed generally transversely to the slicing/shaving edge whereby continuous rotation of the slicing/shaving edge along the circular path effects continuous slicing/shaving of the fed food product.
