I can only imagine how bad that fondue must have tasted…

I had an easy bake oven in the
1980's. It wasn't as fin as the similar toy my brothr had where we could make rubberized bugs and reptiles….I think it was called Creepy Crawlies or something like that.

That kiddie fondue set is da bomb!! Could any toy possibly be more 70's?? It's what candy cigarette vending machine was to the 50's.

I might have tried some Elmers glue or ate pennies a time or two myself…

How funny, My wife was just telling me about her Easy Bake oven adventures just the other morning. I missed out on any of the goodness that came from these ovens, but I did, on occasion, enjoy a helping of Play-Doh

I had a friend who made me a chocolate brownie in one of those things. She said "Here you go." So I popped the whole thing in my mouth and oh was it good. Then she proceeded to tell me that I was supposed to share. She even went and whined to her mom. Sheesh. Thanks….

As tasty as those little cakes were, my sister wouldn't share the fruits of her 40-watt labor. Instead, she would feed her cakes to her Baby Alive. Needless to say that raised several other issues a few months later.

I like to think of it as the Easy Bake food poisoning kit... which is to say, that it's important for parents to continuously buy their children something to bake in that "oven," or like my sister and I, they may in fact try to experiment by "cooking" things that shouldn't be cooked by a common light bulb.

True story: as kids, my sister and I cooked an egg in the Easy Bake oven, and then ate it. (Yum!) Think Betty Crocker ever had the b***s to cook an egg with a light bulb and then eat it? I seriously doubt it.
