A food press having an upper handle rotatably connected to a lower handle. A press chamber and a slicer chamber are formed in the lower handle, and a press foot and a slicer foot are pivotally connected to said upper chamber and positioned to engage the press chamber and slicer chamber when the upper and lower handles are rotated together. At least part of the slicer chamber is a separately formed unit that has a plurality of blades, and that is inserted into the lower handle. The slicer foot has a plurality of ribs that are sized and shaped to be inserted between the blades such that the ribs extend beyond the blades when the upper and lower handles are rotated together. A cleaning piece is removably attached to the upper handle for cleaning the press chamber, slicer chamber and slicer foot.

What is claimed is: 1. A food press, comprising: an upper handle rotatably connected to a lower handle; a first chamber in said lower handle, said first chamber having a bottom with a plurality of holes forming a pattern; a second chamber in said lower handle, said second chamber having a plurality of blades; a first foot pivotally connected to said upper handle, said first foot having a flat surface; a second foot pivotally connected to said upper handle independently of said first foot, said second foot having a plurality of ribs sized and shaped to be inserted between said blades in said second chamber; and a stop on said upper handle between said first foot and said second foot, wherein said second foot is aligned to engage said second chamber when said second foot rests against said stop; wherein said first and second feet respectively engage said first and second chambers when said upper and lower handles are rotated together. 2. The food press of claim 1, wherein said ribs extend beyond said blades when said second foot is engaged in said second chamber. 3. The food press of claim 1, further comprising: a post positioned on said upper handle; a cleaning piece for cleaning at least one of said first and second chambers; an opening in said cleaning piece, said opening sized and shaped to receive said post for removably attaching said cleaning piece to said upper handle. 4. The food press of claim 3, wherein said post is friction fit within said opening in said cleaning piece. 5. The food press of claim 3, wherein said cleaning piece has a plurality of nubs forming a pattern corresponding to said pattern of said holes in said first chamber, said nubs sized and shaped to fit within said holes. 6. The food press of claim 3, wherein said cleaning piece has an edge, said edge sized and shaped to be inserted between said blades in said second chamber. 7. The food press of claim 6, wherein said edge is sized and shaped to be inserted between said ribs in said second foot. 8. The food press of claim 3, wherein said upper handle has first and second ends, said first and second feet pivotally connected to said upper handle at said first end and said post positioned on said upper handle at said second end. 9. The food press of claim 1, wherein at least part of said second chamber is a separately formed unit. 10. The food press of claim 9, wherein said blades are positioned in said separately formed unit. 11. A food press, comprising: an upper handle rotatably connected to a lower handle; first and second chambers in said lower handle; first and second feet independently pivotally connected to said upper handle; and a stop adjacent to said second foot, wherein said stop aligns said second foot to engage said second chamber; wherein, said first and second feet respectively engage said first and second chambers when said upper and lower handles are rotated together. 12. The food press of claim 11, further comprising: a post extending from said upper handle; a cleaning piece for cleaning at least one of said first and second chambers; an opening in said cleaning piece, said opening sized and shaped to receive said post for removably attaching said cleaning piece to said upper handle. 13. The food press of claim 12, wherein said upper handle has first and second ends, said first and second feet pivotally connected to said upper handle at said first end and said post positioned on said upper handle at said second end. 14. The food press of claim 11, further comprising: a pin rotatably connecting said upper and lower handles, said first foot connected to said upper handle adjacent said pin; and a stop positioned on said upper handle; wherein said second foot is aligned to engage said second chamber when said second foot rests against said stop. 15. The food press of claim 11, wherein at least part of said second chamber is a separately formed unit. 16. The food press of claim 15, further comprising at least one blade positioned in said separately formed unit. 17. A food press, comprising: an upper handle rotatably connected to a lower handle; a first chamber in said lower handle, said first chamber having a bottom with a plurality of holes forming a pattern; a second chamber in said lower handle, said second chamber having a plurality of blades; a first foot pivotally connected to said upper handle, said first foot having a flat surface; a second foot pivotally connected to said upper handle independently of said first foot, said second foot having a plurality of ribs sized and shaped to be inserted between said blades in said second chamber; a stop on said upper handle between said first foot and said second foot, wherein said second foot is aligned to engage said second chamber when said second foot rests against said stop; a post extending from said upper handle; a cleaning piece for cleaning said holes of said first chamber, said blades of said second chamber and said ribs of said second foot; and an opening in said cleaning piece, said opening sized and shaped to receive said post for removably attaching said cleaning piece to said upper handle; wherein said first and second feet respectively engage said first and second chambers when said upper and lower handles are rotated together. 18. The food press of claim 17, wherein said cleaning piece has a plurality of nubs forming a pattern corresponding to said pattern of said holes in said first chamber, said nubs sized and shaped to fit within said holes. 19. The food press of claim 17, wherein said cleaning piece has an edge, said edge sized and shaped to be inserted between said blades in said second chamber and between said ribs in said second foot. 20. The food press of claim 17, further comprising a stop on said upper handle, wherein said second foot is aligned to engage said second chamber when said second foot rests against said stop. 21. The food press of claim 17, wherein at least part of said second chamber is a separately formed unit and said blades are positioned in said separately formed unit.
