Apparatus and method for cracking and/or deshelling nuts or seeds by feeding them between adjacent runs of clockwise and counterclockwise driven belts which carry them against and between vertically spaced pairs of rollers to effectively posture and then to apply cracking pressure to the nuts and seeds along their largest dimension. Similar operating apparatus also has utility for cracking naturally occuring clusters of garlic or shallot bulbs and the like into the individual bulbs.
