PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a food cutter capable of making respective cutting surfaces of food uniform by making respective tensions uniform at portions where steel wires are parallelized.SOLUTION: A wire unit 15 is rotatably attached to a base 11 including a pedestal 13 where food 100 is placed. The wire unit 15 includes: one steel wire 21 having one end supported pivotally on the base 11 by bearing parts 14a and 14b to be rotatable, and disposed to meander so as to form a plurality of folded parts; and tension adjusting members 23a and 23b for adjusting tension of the steel wire 21. The wire unit 15 separates and cuts the food 100 on the pedestal 13 into a plurality of sliced pieces by each part of the steel wire 21 according to its rotation.
