1,000 Subscriber Special Celebration - Let’s Have A Party

[@Bob_Chimpman]

It is a good day when Rob posts. 👍 Jack doesn't have trolls. Just people who tell him the truth.

[@RobMilanowski]

In the words of another Jack…Jack Nicholson, from “A Few Good Men”, “You can’t handle the truth.”

[@skeNGk]

OK MOM

[@Bob_Chimpman]

Fud gud to you sir

[@godhimself9396]

Perfect dish for that after-stroke party

[@RobMilanowski]

😕

[@Vishkander]

Congratulations on 1k subscribers Rob! It's a shame how many people who like to 'talk the talk' when it comes to being kind and helping others, fail to 'walk the walk' when it comes to something as simple as saying good job. Very un-Christlike. Loved seeing you make one of Jack's most infamous recipes, and I look forward to the 10k subscriber video soon! -Al.

[@RobMilanowski]

Thank you for the kind words. It’s sad, but I have actually gotten to the point in my life that I usually expect people to not do what they said they were going to do. Time after time I have become frustrated/upset with folks for basically lying to me. In this case, I never asked for help, so I don’t expect any. A “nice job” would have been nice, but oh well. Making the Party Cheese Salad was something I wanted to do one day. I’m happy I was able to share that with so many! The response has been great.

[@pitshoster401]

Sorry to hear that Jack didn't congratulate you at all on reaching 1000 subs Rob. I wonder why he didn't?

[@RobMilanowski]

Well, I don’t really know. I do know at one time he had made a statement that unless you have 2000 subscribers you really weren’t that serious and he wouldn’t do a collaboration video with him. The original requirement for the Jack Pack was that you had 2000 subscribers. I believe he changed that requirement after nobody joined.. The other reason he may not have congratulated me is because he thought I was going to do a video that made fun of him and this dish. I told him I was not going to bash him, but possibly he didn’t believe me. Whatever the reason… I don’t care, the great vibes I’m getting from all of these comments are congratulations enough for me.

[@pitshoster401]

@@RobMilanowski Well take it from me you deserve every sub you get!

[@JaySherman_]

Congrats! I'm a foodjack and a self-admitted non-fan of the party salad. Don't take Jack's discomfort with your recreation of the recipe as a dig towards you - many malcontents have used it as a derisive tool to lambast Jack's cooking ability, and profiteer from gawking at the recipe. I wasn't born in the 60's or 70's but I've had relatives who were cooking in that era, and trust me, Jello concoctions that were even weirder than Aunt Myrna's were extremely common. Anyway, love the video's and sending positive vibes towards you, Patty and the channel!

[@RobMilanowski]

Well, I was born in the 60s and I do remember some pretty strange Jell-O/fluff concoctions. Usually at family, gatherings or weddings. This one was a bit offputting because of the crunchiness and the flavor of the green pepper and celery. I don’t know if I tasted any of the pimento, but the texture of that wasn’t so bad. In my refrigerator at this moment is a version of the salad that doesn’t have any of the vegetables. I also tried to take all the sugar out. Unfortunately, the crushed pineapple has quite a bit of natural sugar in it. Going to try it tomorrow, and who knows, if it’s good, you might be seeing Uncle Rob‘s party cheese salad.

[@george89047]

Great recipe! For anyone on a diet you can make a carnivore version by substituting shredded chicken for vegetables and bone broth for jello

[@RobMilanowski]

I suppose that would be a possibility. Please, if anybody decides to make a carnivore version of this, please send me a link to it. I would love to see that. I wonder if using fish instead of chicken would be an acceptable substitute.

[@paintedhen]

Congratulations on the four digit mark, Rob. Keep up the good work

[@RobMilanowski]

Thank you. Yes, as I said in video, it’s not that many in the grand scheme of things, but it is a start. Thanks for the support.

[@TweeterMan287]

Jack sure is an "inspiration" but Rob deserves all the clout. Your channel is a great community and you produce genuine wholesome content. Bravo on the 1k!

[@RobMilanowski]

I guess I never thought of it that way before, but, Jack does provide a lot of inspiration for a lot of different people. Dozens and dozens of videos have been created that have generated millions of views because of Jack. Unfortunately for Jack, many of those videos are not looking at Jack’s original videos, very favorably. But I would imagine, Jack has obtained thousands of extra subscribers, and many thousands of views because of those reaction videos. Thank you for the congratulations on 1K. I very very much appreciate it.

Recipe - not gud Kiwi on the wall - rully gud

[@RobMilanowski]

When I saw that kiwi in a gift store in Auckland, New Zealand, I knew I was gonna have it on my wall one day. It’s sort of artsy and has a deeper meaning. Also, I agree with your first statement. If it would’ve stopped after the first three ingredients, I’m pretty sure it would’ve been a totally different experience.

[@DamonVerial]

Congrats! I've subbed to you since the beginning (remember me?) and knew you'd hit 1000 subs quickly. You've come a long way.

[@RobMilanowski]

Thank you so much for the longtime support. I remember looking back then and seeing I had 12 subscribers. I was amazed. But today with over 1000 I feel overjoyed. I’m glad so many people have liked these videos enough to subscribe. Hopefully I can keep putting out some decent stuff and keep new folks coming in and taking a look.

[@Spooky_32]

Bless you Rob & Patti ❤ Once again, congrats on the 1k subscriber milestone - I can't wait to see what else you guys get up to this year.

[@RobMilanowski]

Yeah, I can’t wait either. We are both feeling good about life and trying to get the most out of it. We don’t have any future travel plans yet except for a trip in May that we’re gonna be taking in the car. I’m hoping to connect with some of my Jack related friends during that trip. I’d like to make a video of our adventures, but would definitely need permission from all concerned before making that public. As always, thank you for your continued support. I very much appreciate it.

[@Yumifreak3]

It is indeed a great day! Holy cow, this particular party cheese salad recipe is a strange one but hey, you (and Patti) took one for the team, Rob! Congratulations on the 1K subscribers! Certainly well earned!

[@RobMilanowski]

Thank you very much. Yes that party cheese salad was a bit strange. It really was two different dishes trying to be one. In some cases it works, but in this case, not so much. I was excited to try it as I was making it. When I asked Patti if she wanted to give it a try, she didn’t say no, but she really didn’t say yes, either. We both survived, and we have good stories to tell. Thank you again for everything.

[@Whiptail]

The madman actually did it.

[@RobMilanowski]

Well, somebody had to. Actually, now that I think of that statement, I just made, I’m not the first. As I said in the video, there’s been dozens of other attempts. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Whiptail]

@@RobMilanowski Congrats on the 1000 too :)

[@KennySmith-es4mk]

Oh man, you are a brave soul for not only making but actually trying one of the most infamous recipes out there....and Patti for trying it! I think it's safe to say that you might have enjoyed it just a liiiiittle bit more than Patti did 😂Congrats on 1k subs and hopefully many, many more are to come for the nicest guy on KZbin! A shame Jack couldn't bother congratulating you on your success, but I can't say I'm surprised.....

[@RobMilanowski]

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed with that. I wasn’t asking for congratulations, but I’m pretty sure if the tables were turned, the first thing I would say is congratulations. For a while there, he seemed to be very interested in helping others out. I never asked for help, so maybe because of that he didn’t feel obligated to spread some love my way. Yes, you are right. I did like it more than Patti did. I think that’s because I was trying to find some thing in it that was appealing. I think I said the tanginess and the creaminess were pretty good.. I think if we would’ve stopped right there and maybe put a gram cracker crust under it, it would’ve been OK. But the addition of those crunchy vegetables and those pimentos, wow, that took it in the wrong direction.

[@boscopit]

[@Peaceful_Romancer]

God Bless America and the vibrant flavors that dance on the taste buds, thanks to the innovative culinary trailblazers.

[@RobMilanowski]

Yes, those flavors definitely did dance. I’m not sure if it was a polka or a waltz or a tango. This is definitely a recipe I wouldn’t have come up with on my own. Glad I tried it.

[@frankgrimes591]

Love it Rob!!! So excited to visit Wisconsin this summer and be in the presence of brilliant minds like yours. May you get the next 99,000 with ease. Honestly, you are ao genuine on your videos I cannot imagine anyone hating you or Patti. Good people get good results! And you deserve it!!!

Thanks. What part of Wisconsin are you visiting this summer? Lots of tours do things around Wisconsin Dells. Beautiful scenery up in door county.

I’d like comments that require me to look something up. Yes, I would imagine this could’ve been found in the Necronomicon. But, I can’t say for sure, because I’ve never looked into it.

[@jasonsaunders01]

Congratulations Rob. 🎉 With the videos you’re creating, I have no doubt that you’ll be at 100k before you know it.

[@RobMilanowski]

Well, thank you for saying that. 100,000 is a long ways away, but I suppose if the stars align correctly it could happen. I definitely need to work on my editing and video content quality. Unfortunately, to do some of the things I’d like to be able to do I need to acquire and learn some different editing software. But, maybe that’s a good thing to do.

[@skeNGk]

Oh no why would you do this to yourself, Rob?? Are you OK? Do you need to talk? Well done and well deserved on 1k! I've been here since 100 subscribers, will be here when you hit 100k. Can we please get a Rob and Patti Friday Fish Fry video soon?

[@RobMilanowski]

, Interesting… A fish fry. It has been a few years since I’ve gone out for a fish fry. I will ask around and see what local establishments offer decent fish on Fridays. Thank you for being a longtime subscriber. I very much appreciate it. And yes, Patti and I are both doing OK after sampling the party cheese salad. I haven’t told Patti this yet, but I think there might be a do over video coming up. I might get to taste it or a version of it one more time.

[@rcteg]

Congratulations, Rob! Was looking forward to this one and it didn't disappoint.

[@RobMilanowski]

Thank you for saying that. I know some people were hoping I would’ve had a reaction like many of the other videos related to this dish have had. But, it didn’t hit me that bad. Patti and I each only had the two bites that we recorded. Unfortunately, the rest of it got dumped. I’m thinking the reason it wasn’t revolting to me was that I was familiar with the flavor of each individual item. The thing that was most off pudding (pun intended) was the texture of this thing. These things should not be put together in a single dish. As a heads up… I’m currently working on an Uncle Rob‘s version of this. Spoiler alert, there will be no vegetables in the version I’m putting together.

Thank you for creating content that you care about, and for taking the time out of your day to engage and interact with your audience.

I’ve watched that video a few times and I just don’t get how some of that wasn’t edited out and a re-do was done to make sure viewers don’t get put in a dangerous situation.

Hopefully, your subscriber count will snowball and continue making great, wholesome content. Fan from Thailand

[@RobMilanowski]

Well, thank you so very much. I’ve never been to Thailand, I’d like to visit one day. Yes, I think several of those recreation videos were made just to try to make fun. It is a strange recipe, combining both desserts and vegetables. As I was telling Patti before she tasted this, these are all ingredients we have had before. Just not in this combination. It definitely was strange, but at no time did either of us feel we had to spit it out. I don’t like wasting food, but I have to tell you in this case we didn’t eat more than what you saw on the video. As Patti said, it wasn’t our cup of tea. Thank you so much for your support and your congratulations. We appreciate it.

There have been a lot of them that have tried. Most of the videos did not end well. There have been some pretty high-power KZbinrs that either tried to make this or have reacted to the original video. I tried to be very careful when putting this video together to not give anybody any reason to copyright strike it. I guess that has happened several times in the past. Did you by chance try to make this at one time? I looked back in your history and didn’t see it.

[@noflimflamfilmphan]

@@RobMilanowski No, I try to keep my food videos limited to things related to film or television in some way. Also this one seemed like it would just end up being a lot of food waste. I wasn't aware of the copyright strike problem with this silly thing. That just seems kinda sad to me.

[@Scar231]

Cozy little video. Your positivity is infectious. Happy to do my part in kickstarting your journey to 100k. I wonder: if you replaced the peppers, celery and pimento with caramelized onions, mushrooms, and spinach, could this dish be salvaged? maybe bake it in the oven as well so it doesn't such a slimy consistency. having all those raw vegetables with completely contradictory flavor profiles strikes me as the critical mistake that moves this from an odd dish to a culinary biohazard.

[@RobMilanowski]

Yeah, the raw vegetables… That really was the weak link in this. At first I was thinking, well, maybe the crunch will be a nice counterpoint to the creaminess of the lemon cream cheese. I was wrong. Those crunchy vegetables really gave you a feeling that you were eating, as Patti said, a potato salad. Combining that with the overall tangy sweetness really caused this dish to miss the target. I can’t tell from Jack’s video, whether or not, he truly liked it. I do know from many other videos I have watched, not many people have had positive things to say. oh well, we gave it a try and we survived. Thank you for commenting on this video.

[@RobMilanowski]

Yes, I suppose you are right. Folks would put whatever they had together to try to make something edible.

[@FrancoisTremblay]

Your sound on this video was kinda low, you should nudge it up a bit. I've been told that the reason why people tend to react badly to the Party Cheese Salad is that they use fresh bell pepper, which is much more sharp than the canned one he used. I also never see the point of adding celery to any dish. It's pretty useless except adding excess water.

[@RobMilanowski]

I agree with you on the sound. I’ve had that problem on several of my videos. I am using iMovie on my iPad and iPhone to edit these videos. There doesn’t seem to be an easy way of bumping up the volume of the entire video. I have to select each clip individually and increase the volume. That takes awhile and I end up missing a couple. Frustrating! Yeah, green pepper would’ve been better if it was softer. And I agree 100% on the celery comment. I just made a version of this without any of the vegetables in it. It’s actually pretty good.
