The game's question
Let the warm smell of the kitchen come back first, then answer together.
Picture coming home on a cold evening to a house that already smells like dinner. In 1971, Rival showed a new electric pot at the big housewares show in Chicago. You filled it in the morning, turned it on, and left for the day. Slowly, all by itself, the meal cooked while no one was watching. What was this pot called?
- The pressure cooker
- The Radarange
- The Crock-Pot
Need a hint?
The name joins two short words: an old clay jar and a cooking pan, starting with C and P. What went into it at your house, and who came home to the smell?
See the answer
Answer: The Crock-Pot—Rival’s slow cooker, shown in Chicago in 1971.
