I actually don't think this is a terrible marketing idea. Papa Murphy's, the take-n-bake pizza place, offers up cookie dough as a side order with its pizzas...they figure you have your oven on anyway, so...
Been there, done that. It's a great deal and an excellent example of impluse shopping as they have the little buckets of dough in the cooler right by the register.
Although, I must admit that the oven never came into use when preparing the cookie dough. All I needed was a spoon!
I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog,Facebook, and Twitter.
