Sis forShredded

Something is shredded if it has been cut into small pieces. Usually the pieces are strips that are longer than they are wide. People shred vegetables to make salads, and they shred paper so that noone can read what was written on it. The person who took the picture does not have a very good shredder, as some of his paper shreddings are very readable.
