    The original iMac being the device that kicked off the colored, translucent plastic craze of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

    There was a translucent George Foreman grill!

      Translucent products had been around for a decade prior to those iMacs. If anything, they marked the beginning of the end for the trend.

      Translucent George Foreman grill? For real?

      Did it even have a power switch? Mine isn’t translucent, but my OG George Foreman grill does not even have a power switch, you literally gotta unplug that mofo if you don’t want your house to burn down.
