Food processor
You can help The Sims Wiki by adding it.
A food processor is a small appliance found in The Sims, The Sims 2, and The Sims 3. In the former two games, it costs §220, and will speed preparation and add hunger value to food when used.
The Sims
In The Sims, it's known as the XLR8R Food Processor, and is considered to be the best food preparation surface. It is always used for single and group meals, unless the Sim preparing the meal cannot get to it.

The Sims 2
In The Sims 2, it's been upgraded to the XLR8R2. FreeTime added the Frugal Fruitlover's Friend, which appears similar to the XLR8R2, but sells for less (§180 instead of §220). Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff added the Carrot Chopper Deluxe, which is slightly more expensive (§260 instead of §220).
A food processor will be used whenever food needs to be chopped, but will not be used at other times. There are food preparation surfaces that are slightly better than a food processor, but food processors still have advantages. They speed preparation of food that needs to be chopped, especially for Sims with lower Cooking skill. Using a food processor keeps the counter it sits on clean, even when used by a sloppy Sim. Also, it appears that food processors don't need to be cleaned.

Even if you can't manage crackers and cheese, the XLR8R2 Food Processor gives your kitchen some class. It's got chrome, interchangeable blades, finger-inlay, dance-digit, speed-sensitive buttons, and the LOOK that says, "Back off! I'm Expensive!" Guaranteed to improve your dining pleasure.

Frugal Fruitlover's Friend
| ||||||||||||||
Blazing blades blink blithely, blasting blushing blackberry blobs. Frigid fruit fragments frolic freely. Blunt bland blocks blow blustering blizzards, frail frozen freight frequently fracturing from frantic friction. Fragrant frosty fray friskily frothing, blissful blue blur blankets blender.

Carrot Chopper Deluxe
| ||||||||||||||
Small, stealthy, and superb at its job - what your boss may never say about you, you can at least say about the Carrot Chopper Deluxe. With multiple blades of fury and one speed setting - Chop - this diminuitve-looking processor can dish out pain to most fruits and vegetables, but especially to carrots. It really hates carrots.

The Sims 3
In The Sims 3, the food processor is called the Ingredient Eviscerator 235X, and it costs §280. It can be used to make baby food out of leftovers. Sims can get one free through the Culinary career. The Sims 3: Generations added another food processor, the Repeti-Chopper, that differs only in appearance.
However, unlike in The Sims 2, the counter on which the food processor is placed needs to be cleaned after several uses of the food processor. The player does not need to use Buy mode to move the food processor when the countertop needs cleaning; the Sim will make it temporarily disappear while cleaning the countertop.
