Remember the Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine? No? You probably recall it as the George Foreman Grill. You might even have one in your pantry. But if you are under 50, you might not know who George Foreman is, or why his name is on the appliance.
Foreman was not a celebrity chef, nor any kind of chef at all before the grill. The video needs the first five minutes to explain George Foreman, meaning his career as a world champion boxer (in addition to his careers in crime and the ministry) before he was ever connected with an electric grill. The phenomena of the George Foreman grill came about due to the timing of the grill's invention, Foreman's need for cash, and the rising desire for lower fat meals. It was a knockout combination.

George Foreman was that guy from Night at the Museum II.
Hard not to like George... if he's not hitting you.
