Cuisinart recalls 8 million food processors

Cuisinart has recalled about 8 million food processors because the blade can crack over time and small, metal pieces of the blade can break off into the processed food.

The recall involves the riveted blades in food processors with model numbers that begin with: CFP-9, CFP-11, DFP-7, DFP-11, DFP-14,  DLC-5, DLC-7, DLC-8, DLC-10, DLC-XP, DLC-2007, DLC-2009, DLC-2011, DLC-2014, DLC-3011, DLC-3014, EV-7, EV-10, EV-11, EV-14, KFP-7 and MP-14.

You can find the model number on the bottom of the food processor.

The recall only involves food processors with four rivets on the blades.
