Okay, I made my decision based on "your" advice and ordered a Vita Mix. I got it today! I haven't tried it yet, but I'm excited about all of the possibilities. Several of you said you use yours to process food for canning; if anyone has any recipes for using it to can with, I'd love to have them, especially tomato juice. I'll let you know how it goes.....

Good for you Sharon. It's always kind of exciting when something you've ordered. I've been thinking about getting a Vita Miz for quite a while. It just isn't in the budget. Oh well, someday. Hope you enjoy it.

I bought one in the 70's and I love it. Flour is easy to make. Even with 4 year old BB soybeans!! Have fun!!!

What all does a Vita Mix do. I am looking at for a good bread kneader (sp) mine just went off to College! I have a Grain Mill for my wheat berries but was wondering about a machine to knead the bread, does a Vita Mix do that, what I was thinking about was a Bostch machine. Have you heard of that?
