Would you have bought a George Forman Grill if it had been called something else?

[zinfamous]

No, not even if it was called "Honestly! This grill will not dry your meat out into a hulking crust of tasteless mung!" Because I know it would still do that.

They work pretty well for things like hotdogs, hamburger patties, thin meat cuts, etc.

Dude, you don't GRILL macaque, you've got to smoke it.

Could have had Ron Popeil's name on it and would have bought it.

What if it were the Alex Trebek Grill?

I still haven't bought one and do not really plan on it, as it doesn't seem like I would have much use for it.

Nah, but I would get an Alex Trebek Penis Mightier.

Yes...easy to cook, cuts the fat.

No...it cuts the fat and flavor right out.

Originally it was going to be endorsed by Hulk Hogan (if he accepted), but apparently he took too long to get back to them so they went elsewhere.

 

[nageov3t]

I just wanted a fast and cheap way to cook meat in college... the george forman name had nothing to do with it.

Cusinart here. What difference does the endorsement name make? It's all made in China.

Would you buy a OJ Simpson knife set?

Just don't let your children near it.

I think that you're thinking of the Michael Jackson Grill

When he said "naturally" at 0:10 it sounded EXACTLY like a StarCraft marine saying it.

Actually that's the firebat, and it didn't sound anything alike to me. Do I win my nerd trophy now?

 

[Jeff7]

I have one, but only because the previous tenant in this apartment left one here. I've never used it though.

I don't remember where I saw George Foreman first, on his grill commercials or Meineke commercials. I didn't find out about his real claim to fame until several years afterward.

Does it come with a glove?

 

[Amused]

I think if it had been called the George Forman Penis Exploder I would have passed.

 

[yhelothar]

Nope, I love my cast iron press

 

[Drakkon]

DON'T GET A Foreman 360
I got one for Xmas and have ended up with a piece of junk. Amazon wont let you return broken items. Foreman is of no help.

(my personal review - first day i was impressed with it...from there on been nothing but disappointing)

Thinking about it, I'd probably be pretty intrigued.

 

[Tim]

OP, the real question here is would you still have blown that corporate whistle if you knew what you now knew.

 

[KeithTalent]

I have a small one. I only use it to make grilled cheese sammiches and tuna melts. Works very well for that.

It doesn't matter, it's how I use it that counts.
