Lay's has spent hundreds of millions of dollars researching and improving potato chip technology for decades. They've gone as far as inventing their own type of salt which sticks to your mouth better so they can use a lot less of it. They have their own proprietary mix of vegetable oil, and many many more things that make their potato chips worthy of being enjoyed across the entire planet. It's incredible how close Claire got even with a professional kitchen and friends.

But Claire amazingly had little trouble with this challenge. KZbin changed its algorithms to reward creators who make longer videos, because longer videos mean more ad revenue. Which is why BA's videos seem to be getting longer and longer. There's now an hour-long video of Brad and Andy cooking turkeys. Not that I'm complaining - the more BA, the better! But a long video doesn't necessarily mean Claire is going to be tortured by a challenge.

[@averykf3839]

@@teenpope5801 This. When Gourmet Makes first started, the episodes were much shorter, usually 15-20 minutes.

"Radical Confidence Claire" is a great side of Claire. I mean "Everything Is Ruined Claire" is also great. Claire is great.

Little do they know Brad already “leaked” that the next episode is Mentos on its alive

“Mom can I get some ruffles?” “Sure wait an hour while I crinkle cut potatoes”

This reminds me of the old Eddie Murphy standup where he talks about his mom not letting him get McDonald's and instead she made him homemade McDonald's that was *nothing* like the real thing.

Claire: “This is pretty sharp” Also Claire: runs fingers along blade.

[@gwap01]

I love how they're bleeping "mentos" as brad hasn't spoiled it yet on his show

[@user789y]

chris taking pics of claire while she sharpens the blade is my favorite thing ever

[@Inky561314]

[@matthiti4961]

Seeing Chris say "just the tip" and then walk away smirking was the highlight of my day

[@bradyrobbins5446]

Claire in every episode when Chris suggests a Dremel: “What’s a Dremel? I’ve never heard of that!”

I've always said Gourmet Makes has Claire channeling her inner Goth. She's already getting a Widow's Peak.

Claire: Quick idea Everyone: No Claire: Just an idea.. Everyone: No Claire: But what if- Everyone: No

[@heidihoye178]

I love how every person in that kitchen, looks over at Claire using the Dremel and is like "yeah, that's normal" and just carries on!

[@Metalhammer1993]

To me it looked like "wtf is she doing there?"

[@nothayley]

It's Claire.

[@stfu1751]

I love how at the end, Claire sounds all professional just naming all the steps like it was like super super easy to figure out

[@Shelsight]

Nah, she sounds (understandably) like someone reading a phone book listing, articulately but as fast as possible - knowing no-one will ever be stupid enough to want to try to replicate it. The beauty is in watching Claire's journey getting there... :)

Legit though. Making chips is NOT HARD.

[@uggy9719]

Claire after eating 5 chips: "Oh my god..I've eaten too many chips...I feel sick.." Me after eating two whole bags: "MMm crumchy"

[@vivixion]

Lmao those chips were probably her breakfast, she said in an interview that she often rushes to get there for Gourmet Makes episodes and the first thing she eats might be what she has to make

[@JamesCarneval]

Why is this me

[@JamesCarneval]

@@vivixion so what? I eat chips at 4 am with the lights off

[@isapizza7747]

Love how Andy didn’t even have to say anything he just passed by and Claire handed him the chip

[@fakecubed]

Andy always is lurking around looking to get some food.

[@florentineoverko384]

As it is approaching Christmas season, Claire should try and make a terry’s chocolate orange! It’s the sign that Christmas is here when I see them in stores.

[@noodle_fc]

"Get me a laser." YES. Do you realize how powerful Claire would become with access to a laser?!

[@rparker069]

I think in this case powerful and dangerous are interchangeable

[@C_Bat]

She would become Thanos. PS. I don't even know what a Thanos is.
