SKINNY DIPPERS ZERO CALORIE DESSERT: Infomercial Review


Did you ever overhear just one part of a conversation, and misunderstand the meaning really badly? It happens to me more often than I'd like to admit. Like last week, I heard two female co-workers talking about skinny dippers. Now I'm a red-blooded American male, so I'm fascinated with the concept of skinny dipping, so I tuned it.

In this conversation, they talked about how much they loved skinny dippers. I concurred. They said that they were about to buy 30 skinny dippers. Buy? Sounds borderline illegal! Then the second person said, "Yes, and you get another 30 skinny dippers for free!" Wow, 60! Sounds like a whole lot of skinny dipping going on! So I walked in and told them, "I'm in! Where's the skinny dipping taking place?"

And of course, if you've seen the commercial, you now know how embarrassed I was. In case you don't know, Skinny Dippers are not just people who swim naked. Skinny Dippers are dessert treats for those who are trying to lose weight. They're advertised as healthy snacks that are both delicious and good for you--since they only have zero calories. When the ladies talked about 30 for $19.99, they meant 30 of the treats. And they meant that they have a special offer, so that you can get another 30 for free.

I did get the privilege of sampling a Skinny Dipper (the edible one, not the swimming one). And it was absolutely scrumptious. Hard to believe there were no calories.

Now if only I could find someone to go swimming with. Although, to be honest, my body won't be cut out for skinny dipping until I eat a whole bunch more Skinny Dippers.

KANGAROO KEEPER: Infomercial Review

I've lived with women all my life. I grew up with three sisters in the house, and my mother. And I'm currently in my second marriage. So I've seen lots of purses. I totally get that purses are important to women.

What I don't get is why. I thought about this when I saw the commercial for the Kangaroo Keeper. Let me state first off that the Kangaroo Keeper is a pretty neat product, which one of my sisters uses. It's this organizer that you can insert into any purse. It instantly creates compartments and holders inside the purse, so that the woman's purse is no longer this junkyard that she keeps with her. With the Kangaroo Keeper, her purse becomes a place where it's easy to find her belongings.

But why is something like the Kangaroo Keeper needed in the first place? You don't see guys carrying around a piece of luggage just so that they can always have a hammer, screwdriver, a few copies of Playboy, and fishing tackle with them. We've learned the helpful art of leaving things at home until we need them. With women, it's a different matter.

But ladies, if you must carry a purse--and I totally understand that you must--then you would do well to investigate the Kangaroo Keeper. Because with it, no longer will you have to empty out the entire contents in the car or onto the bed so that you can find a pen. Or a.......well, what do women keep in there? An extra pair of high heels? Maybe a hair dryer? For all I know, you might keep the pet cat in there. Anytime I get close enough to one of them, my wife or sister or mom orders me away from it. But regardless, whatever you need to carry will find a home in the Kangaroo Keeper.

Perfect Fit Button: Infomercial Review


Alright, we all those jeans or pants that we love so much and bought a few years ago and cant seem to find a replacement for because nothing is as comfortable or just doesn’t fit the same and now we cant wear them because they are just a little too tight in the mid-section. Funny how throughout life all our clothes just seems to keep getting smaller. I don’t really know how to explain it other than the world must be shrinking. But wait; don’t throw your favorite pants out just because they don’t fit anymore. Try the Perfect Little Button before you give up hope or worse yet, go on a diet. This little button instantly adds an inch or so to your pants and doesn’t require any sewing. That’s right, no sewing. All that is required are non- arthritic hands, and slender non-banana like fingers to apply the rather small and unnoticeable new button and presto, your favorite pants fit once more.

Nuwave Oven Infomercial Review



Does anybody out there really like taking more time to cook his or her food and end up with it tasting bland and full of fat? I don’t think so. That is why I feel the Nuwave Oven is so incredible. I do not currently have one, (although I soon will I hope) however, I was at a buddies house and his mom made everything we ate practically in the Nuwave Oven. As we sat down at the table to enjoy the food we had been smelling and salivating over for the last half hour, I was blown away at the spread of options. (It is no secret why college kids like to go home) I asked, “Man, this must have take you forever to cook all this? That’s why I only cook one thing and not a bunch of sides and what not.” She just kinda looked at me funny and said, “It wasn’t that hard.” I was baffled, how could so much deliciousness come from the kitchen?

Watch Video

Well, she showed me and it answered it all. The Nuwave Oven was sitting right there in the middle of the counter and she proceeded to tell me how much healthier the food is because it drips off more fat, and how much quicker it is because of the, and I quote her, “Three methods of cooking,” that she proceeded to explain in depth to me. As I look back at the situation, I kinda laugh a bit because it really was just about as corny as the scenarios you see in the infomercials. But it all made so much sense.

I don’t think that the Nuwave Oven is going to turn me into this master chef with a repertoire of food selections to make, but if it is going to cut my cook time and make the food delicious while all being easier on me, it is sold.
