Abstract

A shredding assembly includes a shredder having a plurality of interspersed, rotational, shredding blades. A shredder block supports the shredder and shredding blades, and further includes a first set of a plurality of vertical counter plates which are intercalated between the blades. Each counter plate has a top surface, and the top surfaces of the counter plates forms a platform. The platform serves to support pieces of a food product during shredding, and helps in the shredding process by providing a pinching action to the pieces of the product when the blades engage the pieces of the product on the platform.
