There never seems to be the right mixer for thicker, viscous foods like vinaigrettes, marinades, powdered mixes, and baby food. Food processors blend ingredients too finely, but mixing by hand is a pain. But with the Mainstays Ratchet-Style Multi-Mixer, making these moldable food additions is easy. Simply fill the container to the desired level (the container itself measures contents in ml, cups, or ounces) and pull the trigger on the lid for easy, smooth mixing. No more hand strain; just well-blended food.
