Got a hankerin' for crinkle-cut watermelons, perfectly wedged apples, or artfully zested lemons? Then call The Pampered Chef, a direct seller of more than 300 gourmet kitchen gadgets, cookware, cookbooks, and foodstuffs. The company has about 60,000 independent sales reps who hawk their wares at in-home kitchen parties (à la Tupperware Brands ) throughout North America, Germany, and the UK. Reps demonstrate product use and care and share recipes. As incentive (à la Mary Kay ), reps can ultimately "earn" jewelry, as well as trips. Founded in 1980 by home economist and educator Doris Christopher, The Pampered Chef was sold to Berkshire Hathaway , the conglomerate controlled by billionaire Warren Buffett, in 2002.
