First one I ever saw was about 30 years ago... An Amana "Radar Range"... HUGE thing...
It was at a friends house and another friend an I walked in just as they were plugging this stainless steel box in... I asked the very proud mom "UUUuuuHHHhhh,,, what is that???" She smiles,,, puts a cup of coffee in it,,, turns it on,,, and a few seconds later out comes a steaming cup... She tells us to try it out and leaves the room...
(((Big Mistake on her part)))
My friend asked,,, "UUUuuuMMMmmm,,, what should we heat up???" Not being a coffee drinker the only thing I saw that was out on the counter was a very green banana... I threw it in,,, spun the dial to 4 minutes,,, and we put our head down and peeked into the window... After I am guessing 1 minute it didn't really look hot,,, but about 8 seconds later blew up as if it was a bomb!!! Made,,, one HUGE,,, frigg'n mess...
We never got to be in the kitchen again,,, and to this day she reminds me of the mess I made...
