A tool and in particular a kitchen tool to facilitate the removal of the pit of an avocado after the avocado has been split open. The tool is in the form an avocado pit plier comprising a pair of handles each of having a hand squeezing first end and a second end distal from the first end, the second end in the form of a jaw member having an arcuate wedge-shaped portion terminating into a grip point, the pair of handles being pivotally connected with a hinge-like element which joins the pair of handles and enables the handles to be adjusted from a closed position to an opened position. The pivotally connected pair of handles can be adjustable opened such that the grip points engage the pit from both flanks of the avocado and the avocado pit is captured between the jaw members and released from an avocado.

An olive pitter that uses a manually operated drive shaft assembly to pit an olive. The drive shaft assembly is connected to a needle that is positioned above an olive holder. A control arm that is connected to the drive shaft assembly is operated by the user to drive the needle downward and through the olive, pushing the pit out of the olive.

A snap-fit fruit scoop set includes a first, second, and third fruit scoop, each of the first, second, and third fruit scoops having a corresponding cutting hoop and a handle secured to the cutting hoop. Each of the first, second, and third fruit scoops also includes a locking feature formed on the applicable cutting hoop to enable the first, second, and third fruit scoops to be attached to one another via the locking features.

The invention relates to a food comminution device having a base part, which bears a cutting part, and having an actuation part, which actuation part is articulatedly fixed to the base part and can be pivoted from a loading position toward the cutting part into a closed position in order to push food items for comminution through the cutting part and can subsequently be pivoted from the closed position into the loading position again. The food comminution device is characterized in that the base part has the outer contour of a cuboid as its outer contour, and in that the food comminution device has a collecting container, and in that, on one face surface of the base part, there is provided an opening for the sliding-in of the collecting container into the base part, and in that the cutting part is arranged on a first side surface of the base part, which side surface is adjacent to the face surface, and in that the cutting part and the actuation part are constituent parts of a first comminution tool, and in that the base part is a constituent part of a further comminution tool, and/or at least one further comminution tool is fixed to the base part, wherein the further comminution tool is arranged on a further side surface of the base part, which further side surface is adjacent to the face surface, and in that the collecting container can be arranged in the base part selectively in a first position, in which said collecting container collects food items comminuted by way of the first comminution tool, or in a second position, which differs from the first position and in which said collecting container collects the food items comminuted by way of the second comminution tool.

A fruit pit removal device for removing a pit from a fruit having a peripheral surface can include a shaft to eject the pit from the fruit; opposing top and bottom parts, of which each comprise top and bottom surfaces and a peripheral surface extending therebetween. The peripheral surfaces can comprise front and rear surfaces and at least two opposing side surfaces extending therebetween. The fruit pit removal device can be in an open or closed position; and when the fruit pit removal device is in a closed position, the bottom surface and the side surfaces of the top part and the top surface and the side surfaces of the bottom part cover
