Now you've got me confused as well as curious! I'd never heard of
the "George Foreman Grill" as such; then you go and mention "brands"
of the device! So that "GFG" is generic like "biro", is it?

I did a bit of a google before getting down as far as your article in
the thread, and surprised myself by turning up a page of one of our
large variety retailers (Target -- which is at the lower end of the
Coles-Myer product lines) which actually sells genuine GFGs! See:
http://www.target.com.au/html/foreman/foreman.htm

Do the things illustrated on that page look like the things you are
talking about? I see they come in the usual three sizes: Regular,
Family, and Jumbo. :-) You say you would prefer a larger size -- so
what's the problem with the small ones? Just capacity, or some more
fundamental issue with cooking quality and or convenience? [Note that
the prices on that page are Oz dollars. Currently AUD1.00 buys about
USD0.76. So how do our prices compare with yours?]

Cheers, Phred.
