Just once, post something useful - a recipe, cooking technique,
ingredient, anything!

Well, you need some Drano to wash down the grease, so coke is a
perfect substitute for that.

I just re-spiffed a review on Amazon.com on a breadmachine I've had the
last 3 years. I've been using ABMs since the early 90's so this is
just a current machine.

http://www.amazon.com/West-Bend-2-Lb.../dp/B003O9YUVY

I just had to fix my review, got math stupid. I'm at over 600 runs on
this machine now in the past 3 years. I estimate 460$ a year saved over
grocery store bread costs.

Wait...weren't you just dogging ME for going with rotisserie oven
reviews on Amazon?

The hypocrisy is delicious!

I'm saying you have to use common sense. There's another machine on
there (same brand) with a bunch of low reviews because the *blades* are
screwy. Pictures too! Problem, it's a one blade machine. I even
pulled the PDF manual on it because I wanted to check the specs. So
the reviews are for a different machine...

Non sequitur.

The reviews on vertical rotisseries were numerous, and trends did emerge.

You're just internalizing things because you have a vertical unit that
you like.

How over-sensitive is THAT!
