I wandered through a "home show" today, looking at a myriad of vendors who had just about everything you never knew you wanted or needed for your home: microwave drawers (a mere $850), acid etched windows or shower doors, miracle brooms and cleaners, gutter helmets, garage "systems" and more. My favorites were the demonstrators wearing headsets that amplifed their already loud voices to insure they could be heard across the hall over the other amplifed voices. It didn't matter if they had an audience of 20 .. or 2.
This guy boomed out information about the absolute, best cookware you'll EVER purchase in your LIFETIME!!! Watch how the edges of the egg CURL UP!!! THAT'S TRUE NO STICK COOKING. And, it's NOT TEFLON!!!!!!!!!
He competed against "GET NO STICK COOKING WITHOUT DANGEROUS CHEMICAL SEALANTS" .. and the miracle broom and miracle cleaner people. An interesting duel in itself since miracle cleaner woman claimed you needed nothing but her product (SAFE ENOUGH TO EAT, BUT I WON'T BECAUSE IT TASTES BAD!!!!) and miracle broom guy claimed you only needed plain water - WATCH ME DRINK IT!!!!! - and his "lasts two years not like a two time Swiffer" miracle broom.
He held this couple totally rapt:
I preferred VitaMix man. He gave out free soup.
