Abstract
A device for slicing the tip from an elongated food product having an elongated housing with a longitudinally extending channel open at one end and closed at its second end. The channel is dimensioned to receive the food product through the first open end of the housing. A plunger assembly is slidably mounted to the housing adjacent the second end of the housing and in the direction transverse to the channel axis. The plunger assembly includes a blade moveable between a retracted position in which the blade is retracted from the channel and an extended position in which the blade extends across the channel.

A device for slicing a tip from an elongated food product comprising:
- an elongated housing having a longitudinally extending channel open at a first end of said housing and closed at a second end of said housing, said channel dimensioned to receive the food product through said first end of said housing but sufficiently small and sufficiently long to prevent a child from inserting its fingers through the first end and to the second end of the elongated housing, and
- a plunger assembly slidably mounted to said housing in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said channel adjacent said second end of said housing, said plunger assembly having a blade and movable between a retracted position in which said blade is retracted from said channel and an extended position in which said blade extends across said channel.
