It must be too expensive to put circuitry in them to be "off." I have a Walmart special cheap rice cooker that has no on/off switch either. You plug it in, it's on.
Think about it? If you buy a digital clock, a microwave oven, a television, a stereo system, DVD player, .... actually ... any new, modern electronic device, is there a switch to "truly" turn them off? There is always a power drain on them; LED lights, remote control access, power-saver modes... but no true "off" on anything any more. The only way to be, somewhat" sure is to unplug it, and then it may have a built in battery back-up ... like every cell phone and computer does. Nothing is truly "shut off" anymore.
