Cuisinart? Sounds French
Plimoth Plantation staff members must not only be very knowledgeable of the time period they are "interpreting," the early 17th century, they must also be quick on their toes when visitors attempt to "trick" them out of character. For example, when asked why she didn't just use a Cuisinart to speed her food preparation, this Pilgrim woman simply looked baffled and said, "What is that? It sounds French."
