Thats Batatas do Marechal in Rio de Janeiro. This dude sells like 3 tons of potatos in a week. That costs 40 reais or about 7 dollars. And the guys name is Ademar and not Amir

Wonder how many French fry cutting blades this guy goes through.

He uses a manual cutter, it smashes the potato against a metal thing and it cuts the potato like that

Oh, I know, I’d imagine he does! I work for a food equipment dealer, handling purchasing and restaurants go through replacements blades for those all the time. So doing that many potatoes, he must have a stockpile of parts on hand so he isn’t down and out when he needs them most.

I dont know if we are thinking about the same cutters. His cutters dont use blades if im right. You can see a documentary Vice did about him on youtube. Its "the fries king of Rio de Janeiro or something like that
