Snackmaster infomercial with Cathy 1990 Pt. 1

Sorry missed the first part. I bought one of these and there was no temperature control. Just plug it in and it's on... unplug it and it's off. Food burned on the edges and cold on the inside. Yep... I fell for it.

[@tomace1748]

Cathy Mitchell will absolutely not endorse any product that cannot make canned cinnamon rolls.

[@juventino8181]

Tom Ace 😂

[@Luna.3.3.3]

lmao! good one @Tom Ace

[@jimwalsh295]

The😈's in the details LoL but it may just be that the TV exects don't care if its canned or not but emeril lagasse she isn't so it doesn't really matter .after all its only an infomercial.

[@patford8488]

Oh, didn’t you know? She owns Pillsbury stock so buy, buy, buy more pre-made dough products! 😁

[@mnicolemortensen7]

"Chef" Cathy vs Chef Ramsey using infomercial equipment only!! Anyone else curious?

[@DizzyedUpGirl]

She still to this day, keeps a tray of pizza fixings in the fridge.

[@apachette07]

🤣🤣🤣

[@labrea5399]

Girl what’s up wit u ? I see a couple these Cathy Mitchell vidyas and your name all up in these comments.

[@DizzyedUpGirl]

@@labrea5399 I love infomercials! I don't know why. But especially food infomercials. I watched them so much as a kid/teen. I rag on Cathy but at the end of the day, I love her.

Here I am.. thirty years old. My knees hurt. My back hurts. Clinging to the nostalgia of my childhood in the form of an electronic sandwich maker.

[@MetalheadAndNerd]

With 30 years? What happened?

[@Lucas-ht7cf]

For me my X GAMES career never took off

[@susiepittman601]

Is this a joke?

[@teridecaprio]

As a child, I was fascinated by 1) her "tray of pizza fixings" that she kept ready in the fridge and 2) her long fingernails that she used to get that stuff off the hotplate. This is high society. VERY high.

[@michellewright99]

lol

[@emmawilliams8253]

Maurice Rivers LOL 😀

[@patford8488]

Did she REALLY leave that huge fixings tray that takes up a whole fridge shelf...and uncovered so all the fixings dry out?

[@GETINLOSER]

HAHAHA I mean I wasn't born yet I was born in 1993 so I saw the Redi set Go machine and the other shit around the early 2000s she made.. but she is honestly a marketing genius. I swear. If I watched this and it was 1990 and I wanted this maker I would've probably bought it

[@theclaybor4352]

I was also so obsessed with #2! I watched the Express Redi Set Go infomercial yesterday and thought, "I remember her nails being so much more red and long and ... prevalent." She'd use them to avoid directly touching the super hot stuff she'd just cut open. I must've been remembering other Cathy infomercials. 😂

[@DizzyedUpGirl]

3:53 "We'll make some cinnamon rolls" Well of course we will, Cathy.

[@RetroManVideos]

Cathy Mitchell “In ’89, the FCC released the half-hour infomercial format where you could buy a half an hour of time. Everyone was kind of scrambling,” she said. “I think Ron Popeil probably did the first one, but I was one of the first three. The guy who owned the Snackmaster said, ‘Hey, these TV commercial things are kind of interesting, why don’t we try one?’ We went down to a little studio in San Diego, rented it for five hours. By today’s standards it was like, hey, let’s put on a show in the garage. No food stylist, no makeup lady. You know, I had to borrow a lipstick from the secretary in the outside office’s purse. But funny story, because afterward, the guy who owned the company said, ‘You know, we never talked about paying you. I’ll give you a thousand dollars for your time here today or I’ll give you fifty cents for every machine we sell. But bear in mind we might not sell any.’ So I took the 50 cents and we sold a million machines.”

[@5roundsrapid263]

Wow. It sounds like the deal Alec Guinness made for Star Wars.

[@josephpeel9232]

❤❤ Cathy your what got me interested in cooking ! We still have ours ! Love you !

[@johnnyballenatl]

I thought it was 1984 when the FCC relaxed those commercial rules, as cable TV was already growing rapidly.

[@JG-op4de]

Imagine being invited to dinner and realizing the meal was "pizza" made with white bread. That you had to prepare and cook while Cathy downs her 5th cocktail.

I've had one of these gadgets for probably 15 years or more, and maybe used it twice. I came across it when cleaning out a cabinet and figured it was time to either use it or get rid of it. So here I am, watching Cathy, just like in the good old days. LOL

[@goodoldbubba6620]

Hope it was good.

[@aveuch]

In the height of Martha Stewart's popularity, Kathy was making millions selling white bread pizza. Two parallel worlds.

[@lapiubella79]

Cathy always made the exact same foods on whatever infomercial she was starring in!

[@orangesandlemons40]

As funny as it is, it's a clever way to be successful! Make different products and cook the same things, and make a lot of money!

LOL.. right? Because in those situations any comfort food made of real food let alone hot and the fact you can stay on floor and not have to run 5000 miles to the cafeteria, is perfect.

I got one for my first-year college dorm. It put out industrial numbers of sandwiches on late Friday nights... dug it our plugged it in and it still works at 30 years old! Its a simple grill. When simple is all you need.

I used to have something very similar to this. I hardly used it. Watching this makes me wish I still had it. I want to make a ghetto pizza on white bread :(

[@wayofthecass]

I had a toastie maker. What they don't tell you is about the bit when you bite into your 'nicely browned' toasted sandwich and a liquid hot lava composed of what ever you had filled in between the bread would come flooding out at temperatures of 1000℃ resulting in your mouth being burned to hell and an involuntary Wilhelm scream emanating from your vocal cords. Yeah, they conveniently leave that bit out!

[@wsstevenson]
