Hamburger Helper (yes, that Hamburger Helper) is here to help with its very own Watch the Stove mixtape, which dropped Friday in honor of April Fools' Day. Yes, there are Auto-Tune hooks about how "Hamburger Helper is all that I eat / If you don't serve it please take a seat." Yes, there's a smooth R&B number called "In Love with the Glove."
