The George Foreman Grill became so popular simply because of perfect timing. The grill was manufactured in 1994, the same year that George made a spectacular comeback to boxing at the age of 45. George was living and eating healthy to prepare for his return to the ring and the manufacturer of the grill needed a spokesperson.
