A childhood belief about adverts

When I was seven years old, I saw a commercial for the doll Baby Born. In the commercial, the girl was pouring the fake baby food packet (which was powder) into the small dish and it immedietly turned into the wet baby food (commercialism can make anything possible). That led me to believe that it was a "magic bowl" and that the powdery stuff would automatically turn moist.

I finally got the doll for Christmas and I tried this bowl thing out for myself. I was disappointed to find out that you had to add water first!
