It therefore would be an improvement in the art to provide a utensil that not only quickly slices the food product to reduce choking hazards, but also forms a shape attractive to young children. It is also well recognized that children may be finicky eaters. The AAP therefore recommends that these types of foods be cut or chopped to reduce the bite size, and, that they be consumed by infants and young children under adult supervision. Oftentimes infants or young children simply do not grind or chew their food well and they may attempt to swallow it whole. Additionally, it is estimated that 78% of choking injuries occur in children under four years old, according to studies completed at the Dupont Hospital for Children in Wilmington, Del. The August 1999 issue of Child Magazine indicates that hot dogs are among the top ten foods most likely to cause choking in children. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recognizes that hot dogs or other round firm foods present common choking hazards. One of the concerns related to hot dogs or other cylindrical food products is the diameter and/or size of a normal bite-size piece. Often characterized as an “American tradition”, the hot dog is a staple food product at picnics, sporting events, and campouts. It is one of the main food offerings in many entertainment activities such as baseball, for example. The hot dog is eaten in almost every household and in many public events. The present invention generally relates to a device for slicing wieners thereby enhancing the appearance of the hot dog and reducing the size of the bite-size portions. An appliance comprising: an elongated hollow body for supporting an elongated food product, said elongated hollow body having an inner wall and an outer wall forming an interior, a diameter, and a length greater than said diameter a plurality of blades fixed within said interior and extending across said interior thereby preventing movement of said plurality of blades and a receptacle for holding an item to be sliced, that upon appliance operation is slidably engaged along said outer wall thereby forcing said item against said blades for slicing thereof and at least one hole extending through said food receptacle and at least one corresponding prong extending through said at least one hole for holding said food product. A method of slicing a food item comprising: providing a fixed plurality of blades within an elongated hollow body and across a diameter thereof thereby preventing movement of said plurality of blades, the elongated hollow body having a length greater than the diameter inserting an elongated food item to be sliced in a receptacle, said elongated food item supported by said elongated hollow body and slidably engaging the receptacle along an outer circumference of the hollow body to bias the item against and at least partially through the blades thereby slicing the item.Ģ.

That way, the people in your company won't be asking questions about the weird green table with the unfamiliar column names. You could show the data as it is originally, but when choosing Close & Load To from the Power Query Editor, just select "Pivot Table Only" and put the pivot table next to the blue source data table. Of course, you don't have to show the query output. You can then use your slicer to slice in the same way, but your query result will be more intuitive to outsiders. For your pivot table, put in the Columns area and in the values area. I think you can just stop after the 'unpivot other columns' step. This will be good for them, for your company and ultimately, for you as the Power Query Guy! As people become familiar with it, they will learn to trust it and exploit it. I also think you should continue to persevere with PQ. So my question is, is there some neat and nice way to write this in functions or else? But simplified. I mananaged to do that using Power Query, but it is hard to explain to someone PQ when they are lack of knowledge, at least in my Company.they wanna have it simple as a day.Īnd this is what I did with PQ and actually how it should look like: I wanna have "Y's" on one slicer so I can click corresponding attribute to compare it. What I wanted to achieve is to get Unique values list (Y1,Y2,Y3,Y4) in one column (same as on picture 2) so that I can have it for Slice and Dice when using Pivot Tables/Charts.
