I'm affraid that a varistor alone will not actually get rid
of "blender noise" coming through the power line.
A 60hz low pass (LC) filter will help a lot but is not as
easily slapped together.  A compromise can be made by putting
a set of .047 to .1uf 300v non-polarized caps across the power
line and to earth ground (very solid earth ground).
