dangerous culture
Monday, August 11th, 2008there are a list of 24 bullet points/safety instructions
in the manual for our new Automatic Yogurt Maker
please keep in mind this thing is a plastic bowl
that heats up, and 7 glass jars.
there are no blades, no open flames, no moving parts.
and it is a slow cook situation…. 7-10 hours.
here are some highlights:
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
12. Do not touch the parts that are not intended for manipulation (huh?)
14. Do not use the appliance while barefoot.
18. Plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, remove plug from wall outlet.
23. Do not keep yogurt in the refrigerator for more than 8-10 days.
and finally, my favorite…
11. Do not operate this or any other appliance while under the
influence of alcohol or other substances that affect your reaction time
or perception.
i think it’s cruel to ask someone who is enduring 7-10 hours to make
their own yogurt to not seek solace in a little bit of the drink-y drink…
what are we, super heroes?!
oh, oh…. this is great too!
this is in the section of the manual titled: Choosing the Milk.
for best results do not use:
1. Expired Milk
2. Expired Yogurt (you need to use a little yogurt as a starter)
yes!!
the folks over at EUROcuisine Inc. must have just
gotten their ASSES sued off of them at some point.
