Based off the explanation you just gave, I’d more so say that Jamie and Barry deserve the teamwork badge and Mike deserves a leadership badge. As you said Mike took control of the situation and ordered the rest around. But, I would say Baz and Jay were discussing and bouncing ideas/criticism off each other a lot more than Mike.

check out the James Townsend & Son channel, when they're using cookbooks from the 18th century.. they're all written like that..

[@pacjentPS]

There's a good reason for that - electrical or gas ovens ddidn't exist and you were cooking on the wooden stoves/oven combo. Each of them were different and they had varying temperatures. It literally depended on skills of a cook and their knowledge of an particular oven behaviour to determine for how long you needed to cook things.

[@infernoCBR]

[@christopherkarr1872]

I vote Mike for leadership; he was able to make tough decisions and was crucial in assembly decisions. He also became frustrated with the other guys' mistakes and - when even remotely appropriate - took accountability for it. Barry starting out with only one boiled egg when it was clear that more were needed means he ought LOSE a multi-tasking badge, if he has one.

[@illmnts]

I vote Mike too, but also if Barry loses a badge for the egg then Jamie loses the same badge for not using either a bigger or multiple pans to cook the mushrooms

[@numbereightyseven]

Disagree. It's a teamwork badge, not a leadership badge. Jamie for the teamwork badge, because he let the leader lead, and just followed. THAT'S a perfect team player. There's far too many egos in most teams.

[@illmnts]

@@numbereightyseven That's the opposite of being a perfect team player though. A perfect team player doesn't expect the rest of the team to make all the decisions, delegate all the jobs and just does them without trying to contribute to the process. Teamwork is about working together, communicating with each other, knowing personal strengths and weaknesses and not just doing as you're told. Besides I think Jamie did a lot more than just 'follow' in this task, he was constantly asking the right questions to make sure everyone was on the same page and is my close 2nd choice for a team work badge.

[@christopherkarr1872]

@@illmnts Jamie certainly deserves a teamwork badge, and Mike does for taking fault that wasn't his.

Here's a fun food fact for you guys: Did you know that pasta salad was invented by the Italian Jewish population due to not being able to cook pasta on certain days of the week, and as of such they needed to reuse cold pasta for meals on certain days Edit: also I vote for Mike, not only because he helped bind the team together, but also because he has had a LOT less opportunities for badges lately

@@hah3456 We can literally trace the origin for Fish and Chips to Sephardic Jewish immigrants from Spain and Portugal, who had been making it since the 16th century. In fact, the most famous cook in Victorian England, Alexis Soyer, had written in 1845 a recipe for "fried fish, Jewish Fashion" which had the fish coated in a batter before frying. IE modern day fish and chips. I don't even know why it's surprising. Jewish people have been serving fritters for Hanukah for ages

It is nice to see a cooking video after several products review video. I love the extra pastry the way they did. Good job team Normal 👍😁💙

This is my number one favorite way 2 prepare salmon. Looks great, easy 2 prepare and tastes out of this world. Mike has my vote.

Hello Tammy

[@Zorial57]

Firstly, LOVE the return of this cookbook! Secondly, Mike has to win badge for organization and leadership, and Jamie can have a teamwork one too. Barry made weird decisions and didn't play along as well haha

[@richardhardy3868]

I would love to see a pass it on with this cookbook

[@CPower2012]

That has to be the endgame. Everyone interpreting the instructions completely differently.

Barry: "Milfway" Me, a francophone, who loves Millefeuilles: *twitchtwitch* ... WHERE IS THE W SOUND COMING FROM????

[@timhyatt9185]

same place the Y sound comes from paella, it's in the LL

[@CeeJayLerod]

@@timhyatt9185 But in this case, the y sound should be more like the Y in "Yes" or "Yellow". Not a W or an AY sound.

[@ozzem]

Where do half the sounds in the french language come from? Also I think it's coming from the "eu", which, followed by the i, makes a "wey" sound. And of course, since it's french, the last 4 letters are completely silent. That's my uneducated read on how an uneducated man would read that word.

[@helenswan705]

Mee yuh fur yuh

[@CeeJayLerod]

@@ozzem As a francophone... I also have no idea as to where half the sounds come from. I've learned not to question it too much and just go with the flow. The "eu" would make more of a "uh" sound, like saying the letter "E" in French. The "ille" as the end of it is not silent either, it's more of a "Yuh" sound really.
