The box of dates looked to me as being aimed at the Ramadan. Traditionally after fasting it would be broken by eating dates and if you're entertaining a group of friends you could bring this out. Not something for just yourself necessarily but a special social occasion.

yeah totally it looks like the higher end box of dates we always got during ramadan to accompany our break of fast one thing is, they slapped a medical mumbo-jumbo onto its advertisement

[@flamingchuucygnet8983]

Yeah if not Ramadhan for birthdays or anniversaries for older people or maybe as a wedding dowry thingy, I can already think of a few older people who would enjoy getting these. It's a good change of pace from chocolates. Then again, some may argue it'll be money much more well spent on Ajwa dates for personal use, but as a gift I'd say there is a place for it.

Also this is just my take and all, but if something has gold in it, it's pretentious, simple as that. Gold serves no nutritional value, no taste, and no visual flair that cannot be achieved otherwise. It's literally there so as to say: "Hey, I'm eating gold, see how rich I am", which is the essence of pretentiousness.

[@AndreJNick]

I've said it before, I'll say it again, and I'll continue to say it. If it's food that has gold it is automatically pretentious. There is no way around it. Gold adds no flavor or texture worth having. It is only used to give things a more expensive appearance which is definitionally pretentious.

[@sdube001]

I was just thinking the same before I saw your comment. Gold flake adds nothing but eye appeal. The item would be the same with or without it. So it screams pretentious for me. Same with overly fancy bottling, which Poppy also seemed to have an issue with.

[@kinsalelou]

Yes same as that Salt Bae guy!

[@slimetank394]

Definitely, the only reason anyone can think of to put gold into your food is just "look at how rich i am! I stuff gold into my body, lol"

Growing up in the Middle East, Bateel dates were the ultimate. Never could afford a box like that myself, but I've had the pleasure of being gifted a small box or two. They are expensive, but they are also quite amazing.

Really happy to see them on a Sorted video, actually.

I LOVED Poppy's take on this! Her viewpoints were on point from both a chef-y AND a normal average person's standpoint. She's way more grounded and down-to-earth, yet still has the experience and knowledge to appreciate the finer things. She's literally the perfect person to do this "Pretentious or not" videos IMO. This probably the first time I agreed with every single outcome. Overall, I really love seeing her in these videos, and I really hope she becomes a more regular guest (or even a part of the team) because she really does add a lot to these videos and is a great addition. It's just great to see someone with completely different but just as compelling and credible take on things than the rest of the team. Plus, I know this might get me some hate but IMO there is something to be said about having a professional female chef on the team consistent fully of men (at least as main hosts are concerned).

Just wanted to say that I'm thankful that you guys are working to get past reading the manufacturer's claims out verbatim. It's a food channel, not a science channel, but it's still appreciated to have some initial scepticism over what they say, as well as making it clear that you're entirely judging on taste, rather than the fancy "bonus health effects" that some of these things can claim. The mushroom beer a few episodes ago was a bit concerning as it was lent a bit too much credence by the guys as it was giving out incredibly bold claims - but this style of explicitly saying your situation out is the right way to go I think.

It's like Jamie finally has someone to play off of and be as inappropriate as possible lol "best kind of date" haha I love it

[@CJXXxxUnknown]

I'm so hoping that Poppy remains a regular on the channel. I absolutely love her energy.

As someone who has a very high sensitivity to the taste of alcohol : the phrases "pure alcohol" and "tastes delicious" do not exist in the same sentence under any circumstances.

[@meganinman1999]

I absolutely love Poppy so much. She is so down to earth and funny, I'm so happy you guys are having her on more videos.

[@jadejohnson9492]

her opinions feel more realistic, which i appreciate, cause she hasn't been overexposed to fancy things like the rest of the crew has from filming so many episodes of this series. Once you've seen a hundred gold vodkas they don't feel pretentious anymore but when you've only seen one you can see the pretentiousness. It's all about perspective haha

[@evilpenguin4536]

I never thought anyone could be as good as Ben, but....Poppy brings a "fun" element to the show, please keep her!!

[@shitlista4283]

I love the chemistry between Jamie and Poppy! Not in a weird way!

[@ashbulldog]

Poppy is genuinely a breath of fresh air. Loved watching both episodes with her in it.

[@spatula0city]

I freaking adore Poppy, holy shit. MORE OF HER PLEASE, maybe trying vintage gadgets alongside Ebbers?

[@emilyroy9133]

I’m so happy you keep bringing Poppy back!!! Sorted is both the reason I know of her and LOVE her 💕

[@emmaw7068]

Poppy brings so much chemistry to the boys, I love seeing her guest in!

[@raeperonneau4941]

Poppy is an awesome, super fun, addition. She can show up in anyway she please. A bit of a feminine influence is something I didn’t know Sorted needed but it’s very welcome! The woman has an amazing sense of humor and is totally relatable. Will look forward to more content with her.

[@liss-7067]

I came across Poppy via you guys...and I'm so grateful. She's a bloody queen!

[@helenarci1847]

Poppy!!!!! Sidenote: Can we meet Kush?

[@krypt0rchid]

Anyone who has watched Deadliest Catch knows about King Crab, the Russian's work one part of the Bering Sea (between North Eastern Russia and Alaska) while the American fisheries work the other.

[@kawaiiikyou]

I absolutely love seeing Poppy around the channel. I think she is a very lovely addition and her personality compliments the boys' quite well. She's like a more excitable James in terms of sass level, as we always love to see sass around here

[@rachellloyd263]

I love your videos with poppy, she’s so fun x with baz and Jamie it’s like a group of teenagers bantering while looking through the kitchen cupboards. More poppy please!

[@user-xw7ui8wv7o]

love it when you have Poppy on! love her energy and vibe. she seamlessly blends in with the rest of the gang

[@Flamaro]

I know I’ve said it before, but Poppy is a delight and she seems to mesh with you boys really really well.

[@blu.dru_]

Jay and Baz manically laughing like little trolls in unison was adorable!

[@tamisanlatherow3103]

King crab is like thicker, sweeter snow crab in regards to texture and taste. Cracking the leg is an exercise in pain unless you wear thick gloves and possibly a hammer due to the sharp spikes and thick shell. The flesh holds it's shape very well and doesn't get as pasty as a blue crab. Fresh (and even frozen) it is absolutely delicious.

[@20thoughts]

Fun fact about the king crab: In the northernmost reaches of Norway they're an invasive species, and they are PLENTIFUL. Local fishers have been making a living just catching the heck out of them, and some companies ship live king crabs from Vardø or Kirkenes to all corners of the world. I'm not a HUGE fan, but barbecued, marinated king crab leg can be really tasty.

[@Brixyycana]

I've been to a King Crab Safari in Honningsvåg! I was part of the whole process from catching to cooking, it was quite an experience. Freshly cooked and with just a bit of lemon juice the crab tastes amazing. I have had it only once but I would not hesitate to have it again.

[@fahimzahir9587]

Haha I like poppy! She is very genuine and herself. I was hesitant of watching a SORTED video with new add on person but I think I'll click instantly now if she's on it! She's funny

[@PrincessTorte]

LOOOOOOVE Poppy ! She should join the team as a chef ! She adds a lot of humor and lightness to everything. Would love to see her in challenges.

[@zirie3332]

It's Sorted, Poppy's forevermore! She's knowledge, wittiness and a spirit that add on to make an even more perfect team.
