Canada
Taken from acquisition worksheet: "According to Statistics Canada, in 2011 Canadians spent $3.8 billion on Toys, Games, and Hobbies. The vast majority of these toys are imported products from countries that make up the Global South. For example, in 2015, 5.33% of Canadian imports from China came from the Toy, Game, and Sports Equipment classification/category. (ref.2) These capitalist importing practices are part of a globalized system of consumption amongst and between Global North countries and Global South countries. Hasbro has been scrutinized for the treatment of its laborers in China. In a 2015 report by China Labor Watch, Hasbro was accused of “instances of hiring discrimination, mandatory and excessive overtime work, unpaid work, broken labour contracts, poor safety measures and few paths for laborers to seek recourse. Many of these issues also break Chinese labor law.” (ref.3)
Function
For a child to play with and bake small cakes, cookies, brownies, pizza, and pretzels.
Technical
Taken from acquisition worksheet: “On the eve of the Easy-Bake Oven’s 50th anniversary, its primary power source, the 100-Watt incandescent light bulb was becoming extinct. The 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act required that the incandescent to be phased out by 2012. Rather than kill the toy, Hasbro opted instead to reboot it. The light bulb was once again replaced with a heating element. The boxy design of the Easy-Bake Oven & Snack Center was radically retooled and modernized. Dubbed the Easy-Bake Ultimate Oven, the new model was equipped with a larger baking chamber, an updated set of pans and utensils, an on/off switch, and a storage chamber. Options for aspiring bakers now included cakes, cookies, brownies, pizza, and pretzels.” (ref.1) “Even before the EISA, Hasbro twice flirted with Easy-Bake Oven models that were light bulb-free. In 2003, the company introduced the Easy-Bake Real-Meal Oven, which was powered by a heating element and remained on the market for four years. Soon after that, Hasbro officially retired the light bulb from the Easy-Bake Oven line with the release of the Easy-Bake Classic Oven in 2006. Unfortunately, this model was recalled for safety reasons, forcing Hasbro to pivot back to incandescent bulbs in 2008, with the release of the Easy-Bake Oven and Snack Center.” (ref.1)
