Global Sun Oven "Villager" Demonstration by Paul Munsen

On April 9, 2009, after being a distributor for their company for 10 years now, I was able to meet with and interview Paul Munsen, CEO and inventor of the Global Sun Oven. We met in the parking lot of Costco in Lehi/American Fork, Utah.

The Villager, which is priced in the range of $10,000 in the U.S. market, is designed to cook enough food to feed hundreds of people -- a small village -- and sells best in the developing world. The company also has a "family" version, which is much smaller and affordable. We sell it at around $250 -- a little cheaper than most.

The company takes the proceeds from sales in the Western world to make the ovens more affordable in the developing world.

I've been selling about one of the smaller sun ovens a week in the last few months as people are concerned about emergency preparedness and having a means to cook if the infrastructure becomes disrupted.

Happy solar cooking.

That's a good design job there. He thought of everything to make it functional and easy to use.

I wish I were a shaman in the rain forest cooking beans and rice for a tribe of 1000 liberty loving villagers!

This is an awesome invention to bring good healthy meals. But it must be run by the shaman.
