I used to watch the Flavourstone infomercial almost every night just for relaxation. Cathy Mitchell is super friendly, the products are always genuinely pretty good, and everything just feels warm and fuzzy. Great way to drift off to sleep.
This commercial must have aired on Canadian TV (or close to the border) because the info slide with payment information is to a Canadian address, and 26:38 is the telltale Canadian pronunciation of "out".
I remember being a kid, constantly eating these microwavable "fast fries" in the 90s. it was a box of straight french fries, each fry had its own slot with probably this same material cooking them. That being said, I can not fathom being an adult and making the kinds of things she's suggesting in here. A lot of the food doesn't even look appealing, though maybe its that wonderful VHS aesthetic we got going on here.
I remember it was sold at Sam’s Club for a while. It was a kit that included the tools and two rolls of the paper. My mother realized the paper would run out after about two weeks of cooking and pronounced it a ripoff.
My microwave cooks better than that. It's because I have a Sharp Carousel Convection Microwave Oven and it's the best. First one I had I gave away after 25 years of regular use and got a new one but it was the same. I'm now at 10 years with this one
Cathy Mitchell is amazing. She should have her own cooking show- complete with 'dippity dogs'.
LOL!
YES!!!!
Hot dippity dog!
Gotta stock up with crescent rolls!
Don’t mess with her crescent rolls!
I remember watching this at 2am during the summer of '94. Summer break was great. Go to sleep at 3am and wake up at noon.
I still do that!
🤣🤣🤣☝I sometimes still do that!🤣
You deserve it!
This is definitely up there with the most comforting infomercials of all time. Thanks for posting this, I can't wait to fall asleep to it
Good night! Don't forget to turn your pager off!
How can you sleep when people are microwaving Scotch Tape on high for 20 minutes???
Organic scotch tape?

...especially when you've had too much to drink that night!
Absolutely correct! Good comfy stuff.
Good to fall asleep to!
@@codedrop3339 you ain't neva lying
I say it like it is!
Cathy is the Grandma I always wish I had.
Who is Grandpa? Ron Popeil?
6:23 "the fat drains away, very healthy cooking"
6:46 nevermind i'm going to pour it all back
LOL!!!
The nostalgia is pouring out of this commercial. Love the decor, colors, and way of speaking.
"Whisper Quiet"
Thanks for this. There’s something about it I just love. I watched it over and over again back in the day ♥️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for uploading! I loved these infomercials as a kid.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I know this is an infomercial but I'm completely obsessed by the bank of microwaves behind her
It's all about the microwaves!
It’s your girl Kathy!
Go Girl!
She is still making that potatoe recipe and dippity dogs lol 😂
And Cinnamon Rolls
lol
So if any of Cathy’s children touches her kitchen scissors she’ll kill them that’s a scary thought
lol

I think Cathy says "eh" a few times as well.
@@codedrop3339 did microcrisp make an oven ?
Not sure.
She has wow and flutter in her voice.
Food will do that to you!
This is filmed in 19 BAF (before air fryer). We currently live in the year 13 AAF.
I like the BAF era better!
@@codedrop3339 Couldn't agree more!
I’m BAF 4 Life!!!
I'll respect your opinion even if it's BSO ;)
@@codedrop3339 Sadly we didn't know what we had until it was gone. "By 2030 you'll own nothing and you'll be happy" - The World Economic Forum.
I always loved her nails! Lol
Her nails made the food taste better!
If you want to watch the instructional video it’s right here
ruclips.net/video/7brZwjGx9z4/видео.html
I knew it was going to be the jfrey video.
Classic.
classic indeed
U can put tape in the microwave ?
Good point! No idea!?!
BAHAHAHAHA YESSSSSS I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
We didn’t care about that in the 90s!
" Hey! it's yo girl Cathy"
Go Cathy Go!
I ended up snowed in with her in vermont...got a Dutch rudder and a rusty mallard that night.
Was she “whisper quiet”?
@@codedrop3339 the dippity dog had her pretty loud
Something tells me we are now off topic ;)
11:30 "They cook much evener"
Grammar wasn't the focus here...only good food.
@@codedrop3339 Then it was a fail on both counts!
@@rah62lol
But it tastes so good!
Legend!
You are right
Sounds like the Hot pocket invention. Thoughts? Who came first.
Does it have plastic tape included?
6:52, 16:57 he probably went and threw that food away 😂😂
Definitely!!!
Probably so
Indeed
Not sure why but videos like this feel very homely
The world was a much simpler time back then.
I need that apron/cover cause I get a bit sloppy in the kitchen
LOL.
A 7 minute omelet? Might as well gnaw on a tire lol!! Great infomercial to fall asleep to 😴
...when you wake up, make yourself a 7 min omelet!!!
BREAKFAST AND LUNCH WITH KATHY 17:05
Good times
Young Cathy reminds me of cereza from bayonetta 3 (I've not actually played that game just watched the trailers)
I do see some resemblance.
SNACK TIME WITH KATHY 7:01
APPLE PIE AND DIPPITY DOGS
Fun!!!
Omg…nostalgia 101….but god…Cathy…20min ribs would shut down a local transformer. Also, SCOTCH tape in the microwave?.?
Sticky situation!
This was the famed infomercial where she smoked rock before.😊
Or did she MicroCrisp the rock before?
3:54 that's my girl!
Cathy is a good girl!

Carb free!
I'm surprised this stuff didn't end up in grocery stores.
True

You are exactly right.
@@nealwhaley63 but did it crisp stuff. i see it 31 bucks on ebAy. im tempted
Buy it and post a picture!
Is this basically what you cook a hot pocket in?
Minus the scotch tape
Am I the only one thats grossed out by microwaving tape? Surely some of that is getting in the food.
Extra taste?
hour in the oven? 20 min for those chops. putting tape on paper?
She knows what she is doing.
Chef Mike
Yes chef!
If she microwaved a lamb shank in Microcrisp I would have lost it.
That part was edited out!

Great tip!
can it defrost ?
@@robinsss of course it can
Don’t forget the scotch tape!
HEY IT’S YA GIRL CATHY
…and she’s cookin’ !!!
That chicken breast at around 11 minutes looks positively heinous.
Don't judge a chicken breast by it's cover! LOL
Crazy to think Cathy is in her 30s in this!
I would have thought 40s
She's 77 as of August 25, 2024.
Good healthy eating
A “disposable oven” being a selling point seems so weird from 2024
How so?
Those cinnamon buns still look raw haha
I agree! LOL
I wonder if she knows she has a parody video on RUclips with Jaboody dubs...its hilarious.
Link?
Kitchen scissors just ain't that serious, Cathy.
It's only serious when you are running with kitchen scissors!
@@codedrop3339😂
Lol
I thought she said in another video to not overlap the microcrisp too much to avoid it cooking itself?
That's what the plastic tape if for!
Mmm, plastic tape in the microwave. 😅
Plastic tape lowers cholesterol!
I don't think that dude got the job on charisma alone...
Is it something he ate?
My parents laughed at this
Your parents have a great sense of humor!
This product has three patents from a major company. Which one? None of your business. 🤣
Lol
1990
A good year!
No i think this was either 1993 or 1994
It was definitely 1994 when I first saw it.
I like 1994 as well
1994 her cookin’ with cathy microcrisp book came out in 93
She has teenagers but she doesn't want them using the oven? Ridiculous
Ovens are tricky!
Who is the announcer
Not sure
not sure it's a good idea to eat food that had microwaved scotch tape glue right over it
I think the scotch tape was organic!
Damn 6 minutes for chicken. People weren’t worried about salmonella or what?
Medium rare chicken?
This guy muttering random nothings every few minutes kills me
lol
She looks so young here
That's because she eats very healthy with the MicroCrisp!
They must not pay Kathy very well for her 1,000's of infomercials she can't afford frozen pizza
Or she just likes eating frozen pizza 🤷♂️
😂 RUclips videos today are produced better than this infomercial.
But are those RUclips videos “whisper quiet”?
People really purchased this trash 🤣😂🤣😊😂😊
They still do…on eBay!
