Here in all his glory is Ron Popeil, the undisputed king of 90s infomercials in a completely intact, and not too blurry, ad spot for the Ronco Food Dehydrator and Veg-O-Matic. Framing the paid commercial as a showcase of “Incredible Inventions” and introduced by Ron’s 11-year-old daughter Lauren Popeil, I quickly realized how beautiful it is that this was preserved for posterity.
It’s worth noting that Ronco reportedly sold $80 million worth of food dehydrators by 1993!
