Porta-Pizza Oven heats pies on the go

Portable Pizza oven

Mmmm... pizza.

Here's something that would be perfect for those long road trips. The Porta-Pizza Oven is a portable pizza-size oven that plugs into your car's 12-volt outlet. The oven features top-mounted heating elements, a high setting for cooking frozen pizzas, and a low setting for warming last night's leftovers or that loose slice you found in your back seat. Nice!

The unit features a fold-out carrying handle, but I'm quite tempted to permanently mod one of these into my glove compartment! I wonder if it features iPod connectivity...

Though it look likes the pizza in the oven in the picture is just a little too big.

Bad marketing.
Don't just sell it as a pizza cooker/warmer. Or is that all it does?

And why are there two switches instead of just one dial that goes from Off to Warm to High?
It just doesn't seem safe to me. Oh, well ... on to the next stupidiotic item.

Wonder what kind of current this thing draws? Can't be too much or it would keep blowing fuses. Probably end up taking your entire road trip just to heat up that frozen pizza!
