Electric Food Processors

I am making a lemon meringue pie and need a food processor, what can I use insted on that, a blender? or electric whisks?

I saw a blender type apparatus called the Caribbean Chiller Frozen drink maker and was wondering if it was any different than an ordinary blender. Do blenders shave the ice into a frozen drink? I’ve never owed one.

Also, if you have a good quality food processors will this perform the function of a blender?

Are all blenders "loud"? This one takes 7-10 minutes to blend a frozen drink. Sounds long.

Trying to decide between this, a regular blender or the magic bullet.

Is the magic bullet any different than a blender?

I have 2 jars of crunchy. I’m not sure why neither my husband nor I like crunchy. Can I make it creamy in the food processor or blender?

I tried a cold cucumber soup in a food processor and it just turned out really gritty. You can feel small particle of cucumber and yellow pepper in it. Should I strain it using cheese cloth or get a better food processor or blender?

I’m doing a wedding registry, and I’m not sure what would be better for me – a food processor, a chopper, or a blender? i thought a food processor since it can do what a blender can do except a blender does liquids. If there’s one that can do everything then that’ll be better…costs less and less appliances.
if i do a food processor – do i need a 7 cup or a 12 cup?
if i do a blender – how many speeds do i need?
my mom used a chopper – wonderful little thing, but we also had a blender

if a blender does the same thing as a food processor then why not a chopper & blender? i could do all 3, but i already have a kitchenaid mixer on the registry haha

I am looking for a good food processor that can gently knead dough (more like a stand mixer). around or below 10 cup capacity prefered. apart from dough,i want to use it for shredding. I can use blendtec blender for pureee etc;.
I did consider bread machine, but I am looking for something to chop and shred too. Does bread machine make good dough for cookies/pies?

so when i make p. sugar in blender it really works! but the only thing is it takes time like 2 mins and only small batches are allowed. i tried it about 1 cups at a time and 3 mins later it still has the grit texture. and food processor is not that effective. any suggestions? maybe i can use blender again or anything. just give me tips THANKS!
