About this product
This vintage ACME Gold Hand Food Nut Chopper Processor features a 12-ounce glass measuring jar and a gold-toned lid. Made in the USA during the 1960s, this original piece is a manual nut chopper with a straight blade. The clear glass jar allows you to see the contents and has measurement marks. It is a single-item set, including the jar and lid. The yellow-tinted glass adds a retro aesthetic. Ideal for chopping nuts, garlic, or herbs, it operates by pressing down a lever or plunger. This simple, reliable tool requires no electricity and is easy to clean.
Our take
This ACME nut chopper from the 1960s is a straightforward manual tool that gets the job done. The 12-ounce glass jar is a nice size for small jobs, and the measurement marks are a handy feature. I appreciate that it's made in the USA and feels solid. However, the manual action can be a bit inconsistent—some pieces end up larger than others. The gold lid looks nice but may discolor over time. At $9.00, it's an affordable vintage find, but don't count on it for large quantities or fine chopping. It's best for occasional use.
