Cooking has never been so easy!

While visiting my family in Spain, I came across this wonder
of technology for the kitchen. It has 12 different functions and
therefore allows you to get rid of of 12 different kitchen artefacts,
it can cook 3 different meals at the same time and I witnessed how
a 3 course meal could be cooked in about 25 minutes. Ah, it also
costs and arm and a leg (approx 1000 Euro or about $AUD 2000+).

I took the photos with my point and shoot instant camera and
made this composition, which I believe tells the story, but I leave
this to your own judgement.

Hi Zafra - you can get the Thermomix here in Australia (one of my friends is one of the resellers or whatever you call them). There are also a couple "copies" which aren't as good apparently but are much cheaper (the Bellini Intelli Kitchen Master and ThermoChef Natura).

A somewhat useful but outrageously overpriced gadget that is sold by door to door demo, like the Kirby vacuum cleaner.

Visit their website, you won't find a price, but if you enquire you will be signed up for a demo which will turn into a high pressure sales interview. Not saying the product isn't good, just that I question their sales methods. The rest of the world has moved on from 1950.

If the product is good, then it will succeed on it's merits.

That was exactly my thoughts.

Sales by consultant demonstration? Tell 'em they're dreamin'.
