Pretty much the best infomercial ever

(click to biggie size)

Better than the Thunderstick Pro, better than the Jack LaLane Powerjuicer, better than any ol' stupid Ronco shit:

THE AEROGARDEN.

Look at this thing.

The hosts are so completely excited about the prospect of growing tiny tomatoes and lettuce and take a look at this time-lapse footage and all you need is water and nutrient pills administered when prompted by the digital readout and don't forget the pre-planted seedling pod that you just plunk down into a hole in the plastic base of THE AEROGARDEN and if you're patient some totally awesome greenery will sprout and in a month you can feed your entire family healthy delicious dinners grown from tiny plastic cups on your counter.

Except all the shots of food show things like steaks and pies and pasta, each dish with the tiniest sprig of greenery decorating it.

Who would want a bug-infested heat lamp and rotting greens sitting on the counter just so you could put occasionally put some parsley beside your grilled chicken breast?

AEROGARDEN, I love you.
