Remember when it was called “warming”? Ya know, for centuries prior? Yeah… right up there with “prepurchase”. In that vein, if buying isn’t owning, why would “food” be lawfully required to be, I dunno, edible? 💁🏼♂️
How is “preheat” a marketing word? Every time I’m preheat the oven, I won’t go “suddenly I feel an overwhelming urge to go buy a new oven.”
If I’m shopping for an oven for whatever reason, I don’t go “Oooh, this one has a preheat function!”
It’s literally the word that I’ve used my entire life to describe the stage between turning on the oven and it reaching the set temperature. Language evolves, deal with it.
I’ve never heard of “prepurchase,” what does that even mean? Like a free demo or something?
Expiration dates are approximate at best and occasionally only there to avoid liability, but I wouldn’t say it’s a “marketing thing.” More like a “regulatory thing.”
What’s claro is that you seem to be bent out of shape over nothing, for the love of being miserable.
Warm ≠ Preheating. Warm is an extremely low setting that is intended to warm what is in the oven without significantly cooking it. Preheating is the cooking step of letting the oven get up to the target temperature before you put the food in. Most recipes are designed to be cooked at the listed temperature, not cooked at a temperature that varies from room temp to the listed temperature at whatever rate your oven heats at.
Yes, my youth of three decades. “Pre-heat” has been a word for a long time, you old grump.
I’ve literally never heard “prepurchase.” So you just give them money for nothing in return? Is that like pre-ordering with no promise that they’ll ever deliver an item? Where the hell do you see that?
“Pre-heat” is literally “warm” in a flashy new dress. Don’t be dumb.
It’s literally the word for it, you’re the one being dumb. There can be multiple ways to describe the same thing.
I’d add more, but you seem reflexively combative, to say the least, and you have decades of real life to get through on your own before these few words’d ever find meaningful purchase in your mind.
You’re the one being reflexively combative. You literally flew off the handle cause I said “preheating.”
Your words will never find purchase in my mind, no matter how strongly you flaunt your senior citizen status. Age ≠ wisdom. Get over yourself.
p.s. “¿Claro?” is “Clear?” in English. Read a fuckin’ book. Travel outside your hometown. Fuck.
I know what the fuck claro means, I said what’s claro is that you’re intent on getting bent out of shape over nothing. I didn’t ask you what claro means.
I’ve read plenty of books and I’ve traveled to more countries than I can count on my fingers and toes. That’s not gonna change anything about your smugness though, so I don’t see what it has to do with this conversation.
I think an air fryer has distorted my perception of cooking times, heh.
And preheating!

What?
“Preheat” is a bullshit marketing word we’ve all blithely swallowed and memed. Much like “prepurchase”, “expiration date”, etc. ¿Claro?
