Random Stuff - Tasting Christmas

[@KicksPregnantWomen]

You obviously stole from this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/moLaZapvjMyLmbM

[@AtomicShrimp]

You know the rules, and so do I

[@monteb6276]

The sad thing is I reconize that link and know not to click it

[@AtomicShrimp]

Inside, we both know what's been going on

[@stephenlamoreaux9101]

Classic.

[@soniashapiro4827]

After a difficult Christmas, with financial worries, health problems, and family far away and recent family deaths your Christmas present videos are so soothing and encouraging. Cups of tea and flavoured chocolates. Simple pleasures and a warm hearted person's is feeling like the right thing this New Year's Eve. Thank you.

[@adalex_4290]

This is an old video so I'm not sure if you'll see my comment, but I really really love your random stuff videos. They're so relaxing and they've inspired me to perhaps do something a little more interesting with my life rather than sit around and do nothing. :) I hope you do more once it's safe to do so.

[@sophiestone3745]

You're such a wonderful human being , your videos are really inspiring me to try new things , thank you for being you

[@hgrace0]

I love the enjoyment of food that you have. It makes these videos so fun to enjoy with you even if I don’t get to participate in the eating

[@jamesledger4572]

The music and the amazing video are all jolly good, cheers mate keep up the good work.

[@GrandadsOtherChannel]

Some tasty items there. Not sure about the tea's 😜

[@millenntan12]

wholesome and interesting vid as always! lets me learn about different food!

[@serioushex3893]

i'm glad you liked the halvah, that stuff is delicious. its definitely a weird treat, but i love it so much.

[@PeeJay7290]

Wow. Seeing the cheese made me realise how quickly this year has gone! Thanks for sharing those treats with us :)

[@simonhopkins3867]

I'm wondering if the tea's should have been added to some gravy or stock. Might have added another dimension of flavor. Like from the twilight zone. 😂

[@howellheather6969]

In terms of the mushrooms going with chocolate, for oyster mushroom steaks I usually add cocoa powder to make it taste more like meat, and the flavour combo works together really well

[@mirkoninhopsalot]

Thank you for linking the episodes together. I really wanted to know the end result of the unripe blackberries. Cheers

[@ZestyLimeStudios]

Great Video, few things to discuss 1 - Tea is vile anyway but Brussel Sprout tea?!? It reminds me of the Walkers Brussel Sprout flavour crisps, they are horrible. 2 - Mushroom chocolate, ooo i dunno 3 - You use to live in Cyprus, no way how cool, which part? I use to go to Paphos couple times a year for holidays when my parents had a house / villa out there, sold it a few years ago now, do miss having it as you just get cheap flights out there & then do supermarket shopping. Besides probably best it was sold then rather than now in this current CoronaVirus era.

[@AtomicShrimp]

I lived in Limassol - this was a long time ago when I was a young child - for about 3 years before the Turkish invasion (we came home to England when that started)

[@ZestyLimeStudios]

Atomic Shrimp - Ahh at least you got back safe here from everything then.

[@AtomicShrimp]

Yeah, although looking back, the evacuation should have been pretty scary - my 7 year old mind found it exciting, but it was: A week or two of sleeping on the kitchen floor, listening to gunfire (there were no windows in the kitchen - my parents were concerned about stray bullets) Being woken up one night and quickly bundled into a jeep in my pyamas, driven to Akrotiri and flown out in the back of a Hercules - to Beirut (as it was a safer place than Cyprus at that time!)

[@ZestyLimeStudios]

@@AtomicShrimp - Oh wow what a story, sleeping on the floor while hearing bullets go past, jesus.

[@AtomicShrimp]

Yeah, it's sort of cool. As a kid though, I was completely oblivious to the danger - during the daytime, I was still out and about catching lizards and hoping I would find one of the bullets on the ground that I had heard during the night!

[@yetanothersubscriber5070]

I hope you've had a nice Christmas! Thank you for the videos this year and have a great 2019!

[@NOWThatsRichy]

Some intresting flavours there, that cheese would probably last for ages as it sealed airtight in wax. PS, I like your latest 'duvet' shirt the one in the first part of vid. Hoping you had a good Christmas.

[@pkarukin]

That shirt is so bad ass! I love it!

[@jerb5965]

I hope you had a great holiday my friend.

[@IAmMike2K]

This video has made me obscenely hungry

[@rbrown6476]

Those pickled blackberries sound lovely. I’m going to give that a try when it’s the blackberry season - just off to trawl through and find your recipe for pickled walnuts, which sound lovely too but very messy! I wonder if the pickled walnuts are significantly nicer than store bought ones?

[@martinajohnson]

I've had that porcini chocolate too! The same maker also has a kefir-based milk chocolate this year that's really excellent. Highly recommend.

[@thundy8363]

I love the music in these random stuff videos

[@Careful3890]

This is totally honest. I do love the elevator music in this video. It’s soo relaxing.🛌🛌🛌🛌

[@urmokvagenhaughven1714]

Wonderful, thanks for the video.

[@tiff2106]

I just had amazing chanterelle chocolate last year. It was so special, it’s a shame I don’t drink whiskey because i think it would pair very well with it.

[@jazzpear8877]

I've had that Japanese beer! It's good. There's different flavors that are worth trying.

[@QwinnieLu56]

I'm late to the Shrimp party and have been bingeing your vids over the past month. Have i missed an Atomic pumkin jam video in the past 4 years?

[@AtomicShrimp]

I've reviewed a pumpkin jam from Portugal I think, but not made my own

[@QwinnieLu56]

@@AtomicShrimp - yes, you reviewed some in this video but KZbin says it was posted 4 years ago so I didn't know if you'd had a bash at making some in the intervening period. 1) I guess I could have just searched "Atomic Shrimp pumpkin jam" 2) Thank you for reading and responding to my comment - very timely as I'd just watched another of your older videos yesterday where you said you did read all the comments ❤️ 3) Could volunteer squash jam be a possible project if you get a good harvest this year? Thank you for all your random content. I have been recommending your channel to friends and colleagues who think I'm bonkers; banging on about Blob Opera, hot dog wobbles, budget challenges, righteous indignation, etc. I've also recommended you to a few patients suffering with insomnia because so many people have commented on how calming your voice and videos are; I figured if they don't fall asleep, they will at least learn something interesting! 😉🤣 I could carry on but you have thousands of other comments to read through and stuff to make, scammers to bait. I'm off to search out your blackberry pickling video... ☺️

[@AtomicShrimp]

Oops. Sorry, I didn't realise this was the video in which that happened. I might try making some.

[@2.7petabytes]

Some of that sounds quite good! Not so much the teas. Though I love tea, I’m a bit of a purest in that sense. Give me a green jade or honey orchid oolong.

[@steammachine3061]

Assam all day long in this household. It sounds posh but its a great everyday tea.

[@2.7petabytes]

SteamMachine Assam is good as well 👍

[@domb4694]

Nice video! Really random but I live 2 minutes away from St Catherine’s hill ha

[@AtomicShrimp]

You'll probably recognise the location of the big walnut tree in the video where I picked these (if you don't know it already) about 2 minutes into this vid: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpaYYY2ZpreBr6c

[@dionlindsay2]

Sometimes, depending on how much a mission you've been on, I watch the video with commentary first, then watch it again at 0.75 or 0.5 speed. That way like now I get the dulcet tones AND then the inconsequential visual details you sometimes rush through.

[@deco2757]

Atomic I’m curious if you keep a pallet cleanser near you? Not everyone likes their palette cleansed I’m just wondering.

[@justynh1321]

It's genuinely weird watching something solid (like a walnut) getting cut like it's nothing

[@Dpkde]

Less than 6k views , I feel like I’ve found a hidden gem

[@canablis1984]

This is going to be a long, long, long shot but do you have ANY links to buy the same carob halva you show here??? Preferably with available shipping to the US

[@BreakDanceFight]

Old video but I wonder if that porcini chocolate would make a good Mole sauce? Would seem to hit those sweet/savory notes in the right way.

[@Matt_matt1]

I assume your usual go-to tea is the Sprouts now hehe

[@nancydavidson2295]

As not to waste the tea did you make it into a soup base?

[@steammachine3061]

The only japanese beer iv ever tried was asahi. It was a pretty good thirst quencher had a dry note to it. The thought of having abundance at xmas sends my tight arsery into panic as i try my best to eat in such a way as make sure the most perrishable gets consumed first to avoid waste lol. So its cold meats tonight and anything left will head for the freezer and be used in soups and chilli at a later date (turkey chilli is pretty dam good) so i can get cracking on the pate and then hopefully the cheese will still be in date. Although to be fair the best tasting cheese iv ever had would have been considered out of date by even the sturdyest of stomaches lol. And of course im sure that jack daniels is near its use by date so that needs to be downed sharpish lol.......ps i bet thay cheddar is kick arse in flavour

[@istiompaxindica9676]

I know it's late, But Merry Christmas!
