Default Butterball turkey fryer informmercial

Seen the informmercial for this deep fryer yet?
Note the size of the so-called turkey in this
infommercial. At first I thought it was just
nuts to be marketing a device for deep frying
a turkey, especially indoors. You'd be inviting
lawsuits from all the people whose houses you
burned down.

But the so-called turkey is about the size of
an average chicken. This isn't really a dangerous
machine, because it's so small.

I'm surprised Butterball would lend their name
to this ridiculous device. It's like Nikon
allowing their name to be used on a disposable
cardboard-and-plastic camera.
