The news is OUT!
Oven cleaning is OUT!
Self-cleaning ovens are IN!
Here’s the opposing lineup: 1. Get yourself some
oven cleaner—takes about 35< worth to do one
thorough job. 2. Get down on your hands and
knees. 3. Scrub and scrape.
Or get a new electric range. One that’s
equipped with a self-cleaning oven.
Then look at the winning lineup: 1. Latch
the oven door. 2. Set controls to "clean.” 3. Set
oven timer for desired length of cleaning cycle.
About a nickel s worth of electricity removes
even baked-on grime. There’s just a bit of fine
ash left to whisk away. Kitchen stays cool.
Let the oven clean itself while you watch
the Braves at the stadium.
That’s the scourless way to score.
