Troubleshooting My Salad Chopper: Tips for Making Salsa with Ease

[4kids4me]

I used my salad chopper over the weekend to make salsa (recipe from catalog) and the food kept sticking to it, esp the onions. I found it much easier just to chop everything with my food chopper. HELP! My hostess later this month wants me to demo the salsa with the salad chopper, and I think it's a cool product, but now I"m skeptical since it didn't work for me. Help! Could it be defective, or is everyone else having this problem????

TIA!

I haven't used it to make the salsa but I have used it ALOT to make salad and yes, occasionally it does stick but I don't have a problem with it.

what do you put in your salad that it works well with? WHen it sticks, what is sticking? I find mostly that it was sticking with the onions.

I don't eat onions but I find that the lettuce sticks. I put lettuce, carrots(matchstick), tomatoes in the bowl and chop away. We then add cheese and croutons to our bowl.

Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you had trouble with your salad chopper while making salsa. As a fellow consultant, I understand how important it is to have a successful demo for your hostess. I have used the salad chopper for salsa before and have not had any issues with food sticking to it. It could be possible that your chopper is defective, but before assuming that, I would recommend checking the sharpness of the blades and making sure they are properly aligned. You could also try spraying the blades with cooking spray before using it to see if that helps with the sticking. If the issue persists, I would be happy to assist you in finding a solution or possibly exchanging the product for a new one. I hope this helps and I wish you the best of luck with your demo!
