Does Waring pulverize raspberry,blackberry,strawberry,tomat... seeds so there is no need to chew them and they can be swallowed directly?

Yes, but i do not recommend black berries because the seeds in them are horrible and very stoney. I stick with blueberries, seedless grapes, strawberries, raspberries, chia seeds, bananas, apples and tomatoes are all fine (even frozen). I enjoy my machine!

I have not had a problem with the squirls chewing thru the feeding ports . I have had a squirl try to get seed from the feeder but he has not chewed or damaged my feeder.

I have not done it myself, but you should be able to. The manual says it is fine. I have no trouble with wheat berries or dent corn, so rice should be no problem.

The dried fruit chunks I've seen are too big and would block the divider that feeds into the individual feeding ports. I once had some song bird mix that had dried fruit pieces in it and that is exactly what happened, those dried fruit pieces eventually got stuck in the divider and blocked seed falling down into the seed cups.

Yes they have pits which remove easily by pulling the fruit apart with your thumbs, but be very sure to always open dates before eating as they can also contain black fungus you do not want to eat. If you see black powder inside the bag, be extra cautious for them. I don't think the sellers can do much about it, this happens in the fields while growing or drying, so just toss them out and use the good fruits, they are wonderful.

You don't need this for raspberry jam. You're thinking of pectin. Clear Jel is used for thickening things like pie filling. The old way was to use corn starch but the results were not great. This is much better for that, but if you just want to make raspberry jam get some Ball Pectin from the grocery store, Walmart, etc.

Raspberries..lol. The taste is fine, not nasty or unbearable. I just didnt see any purpose or results, but good luck to you. Taste wont be your worry.

If you're asking can you leave seeds from fruits in, yes, absolutely. You won't notice whether or not you leave the seeds in except there's less work to do if you leave them in.

Yes - absolutely and it doesn't "smush" them. My wife bought this for here strawberries so she could make jams and jellies and after several large flats she is very happy with the results. She also has used it on mushrooms and eggs with similar results,

Hi, I have not tried that yet, but my first response would be no. When I do try to get the juice out without any seeds at all, without question I would use the food mill first then put the pulp thru my fine mesh sieve (strainer). When I do cactus apples I use my food mill and its great but is you need to be careful not to have any seeds, go with the food mill first then strain the pulp. It also makes it easier to strain once it's been thru the mill. Hope this helps. Food mills are a great addition to any kitchen!

Only if they are CHERRIES. I don't think the flavor of the fruit affects the performance of the pitter at all.

You can juice limes, lemons, clementines and all. The holes are not that big and I have never had a problem with seeds falling through.

It's only supposed to put through a fine product based on what you put through the disc. For example if you put cooked apples through it, it catches the skin and seeds and heavy pulp in the top and pushes through an applesauce type result. I've never put raspberries through although they are very delicate and maybe a strainer would have worked better? It probably separated the seeds and skin but because they are so small ad filled with liquid, it's not the best fruit choice for a mill? Hope this helps.

Do yourself a big favor and get a SQUEEZO strainer. I've had one for 30 years and it is wonderful! This Winco will NOT work for raspberries. The straining holes are too large. I also have a Kitchen Aid electric and it actually crushes the seeds and pushes them through. Awful! My advice is go with the Squeezo.

No, I just eat them right out of the package, but I do grind mine up & put in peanut butter or in cereals, I'm not for sure about soaking them, I guess you could & possibly even drink the liquid from the seeds. I use to eat them right out of the bag like eating nuts, but they got to bitter & you need to eat at least 8 a day (don't have cancer) or up to 16-18 a day (if you have cancer) So it was easier to eat grinding them up & put in peanut butter & spread on bread or even just take a teaspoon of the mixture & eat it throughout the day. I hope this helps.

It depends on the size of the seeds. Using the finest size sieve I don't think it will remove all berry seeds. You would have to put it through a hand held fine sieve after using the food mill.

Tons? If you are feeding sunflower seeds the birds are indeed de-hulling them and spitting out the hulls. You may have better luck with black oil sunflower seeds. If you are feeding a mix birds will often discard the millet in favor of the tastier seeds. I have had squirrels jump on the feeder spilling some seeds but they soon get discouraged. This is one of the hazards of bird feeding. If the discards are edible seeds be careful that this does not attract rodents.
