• and
• varying a direction of rotation of the stirring member so that the stirring member adopts a different configuration depending on a type of the food product prepared in the container,
• the stirring member comprising a main stirring member and one or more rotating stirring bodies rotatable with respect to the main stirring member, the stirring member adopting a configuration selected from the group consisting of (i) a spoon where the one or more rotating stirring bodies are not deployed, and the spoon configured for consuming the prepared food product;
• and (ii) a whisk where the stirring member is deployed, the main stirring member and the one or more rotating stirring bodies being rotated with respect to each other, wherein the main stirring member has an axis of rotation, wherein each of the one or more rotating bodies is connected to the main stirring member by an upper connection and to each other at a lower connection point that are both on the axis of rotation of the main stirring member,
• the one or more rotating stirring bodies comprise a first rotating stirring body and a second rotating stirring body;
• movement between the first rotating stirring body and the main stirring member is defined and guided by a primary pin attached to the first rotating stirring body, wherein the primary pin moves inside a primary slot in the main stirring member;
• and movement between the second rotating stirring body and the first rotating stirring body is defined and guided by a secondary pin attached to the second rotating stirring body, wherein the secondary pin moves inside a secondary slot in the first rotating stirring body.
