Hi I am Ann Reardon, How to Cook That is my youtube channel it is filled with crazy sweet creations made just for you. This week we are discussing an important topic - who is responsible if someone follows a how-to cooking video that is dangerous and gets hurt? Both so yummy and 5-minute crafts have uploaded videos presented as fact that are actually fake, inaccurate or dangerous. Join the discussion, does that matter? If so who should be responsible for this? The creator, the platform that leaves them up even if flagged or the viewer? Join me for creative cakes, chocolate & desserts, new video every Friday.

Thank you for doing the video and creating awareness. I’m going to be sharing this with other parents. 🌹

[@BestOnThursdays]

I'm a little torn between the two... It feels very situational... Skateboard videos are everywhere and everyone can go out and try to do it after watching a couple videos... No harm.... Just the viewer trying or practicing what they saw... Those bleached strawberries... High harm risk as some kid would think it's okay to just eat them... I mean people were eating Tide pods and are currently going around licking shelfed ice cream... Back to the skating the risk comes when they do Daredevil stunts and the viewer trys doing some super cool trick off thier roof... Learning how to bake new and inventive snakes in the microwave no harm... Other then making it wrong and having to clean up... I don't know it just feel like they both should have a part to play... DIY/how to's Rules in place for KZbin to help sway the impressionable minds and worried parents... maybe some mandatory warnings on videos so The viewer knows not to attempt without parental guidance or proper materials and safety gear... I don't know just feels like they equally need to take blame

[@user-pd2zv7bo1i]

How To Cook That I think it’s both the platform that allows the videos and the creator who makes them. Both have responsibilities to keep dangerous videos off the platform and if the creator doesn’t care the platform needs to step in and do something and if they don’t they are responsible as well I know the can’t monitor everyone but the need to monitor bigger creators because they are more likely to be seen.

The burn treatment was scary. Just before Christmas last year I was cooking and a pan of boiling oil exploded all over my hands and splashed my face. I did the running water (shower) but went to hospital with an ice pack and a bag of frozen peas. Got myself a freezing icy water bath for my hands and some gel stuff for the few splotches on my face. It was awful but saved my life since I was also told to get my blood pressure checked. 9 months later, only one small scar on my chest which got no treatment because I didn’t know I’d been hit there too. You can’t tell I’d been burnt. And my blood pressure is now controlled. But damn! The idea of toothpaste? Nooooo!

That's exactly what these content farms rely on.

I think KZbin should start taking requests to review a channel manually and show labels as “may be dangerous or contain pranks” when any of its videos are being viewed.

[@heidiiiM]

True and sadly this will only happen if they are held responsible for there dangerous videos.😢

[@kaelin_cherise]

The only good thing twitter did was its community notes feature, and while I think it might just lead to people spoiling say story-based gameplay videos, it would be helpful for videos with illegal pranks or "hacks" Like imagine a blurb under the description like: "Viewers added context you might like to know: Ann Reardon is a food scientist and dietician. In this video, she breaks down 'X hack' from 5-minute crafts and shows not only how it doesn’t work but how to make 'X' properly."

[@angryavocado__]

KZbin rules are trash honestly. In my country, there was a guy confroting a youtuber adopting cats and then starving them almost to death just so he can fake multiple videos of him "helping a kitten he found on the street starving". Multiple people made aware of him and telling the viewers to report him. He didn't get removed tho... Instead, the people who called him out got a strike for "bullying".

I really appreciate that even tho the video as exactly laid out wasn't directly what harmed the girls, she still took some responsibility and tried to fix things.

The thing about kids like yourself, is that they tend to like doing things on their own, especially when they know parents might not approve. These KZbinrs put out videos for kids without any concern for safety. They and KZbin has to hold accountable for harms their videos. Tvs and movies do that. Why won't they.

[@Karajorma]

I like that when she made a video that was popular enough with her fans that even though they did it wrong, she feels that she has to take responsibility for not thinking hard enough about how people might try to copy her and get it wrong (especially kids). Now contrast that with 5 minute crafts and the rest of those content farms who do stuff that is dangerous when done exactly as shown, which has also maimed people and for which they take no responsibility whatsoever.

the problem is that these channels ARE targeted at children with no warning or parental guidance, children are the ones who click on these things.

[@martygrimsley7389]

I think it is important for parents to educate their children about the authenticity of youtube videos. We know that this is a public platform and has videos that may or may not contain legitimate content. By giving them the information to make informed decisions that keep them safe.

YES. I am a nanny for two little girls, six and nine. They can already tell me whether or not a photo or video has a filter on it and if a hack is just fun and silly or if it actually does something. Raise your kids to outsmart the clickbait and it will decline in value to creators.

[@Theansilgregoryshow]

I just have to tell you after working with hot caramel and fudge and a lot of deserts with 30 years in the food industry, You have given the best answer and shown people without just telling them oh no this will burn you. I Have seen the video you are talking about where they spin the caramel like that. I took one look at it and new that it would burn the crap out of you, As I am sure you did as well. Kudos to you though for taking the ultra high professional road and being such a great teacher knowing that people would not believe it just if you told them it would burn. Just the temperatures that you show before you do the experiment. And for any body who has never been burnt by caramel you do not want it. I repeat you do not want it. It is terrible it scars quickly and skin sloughs off quickly. I love your channel. God-bless you and keep cranking out the videos. You are an amazing talent

[@emmasilver2332]

@@BeDangerousSomeMore I don't stand over her shoulder, but her accounts are linked to mine and I do check them. I also talk to my daughter about safety including safety regarding things she shouldn't be involved with like guns, alcohol, fire, sex, and drugs. Teens do incredibly stupid things every single day and basically every teenager has done something dangerous at some point. Riding in cars without seat belts, riding bicycles without a helmet, drinking excessively, using fireworks without water and fire extinguishers, using the phone while driving, jaywalking, and a million other things are dangerous and cause serious bodily injuries and deaths every year to lots of people across all ages. Everyone makes stupid decisions all the time and that's a reality of life. All I can do as a parent is do my best to minimize risk and hope for the best.

[@MaskedDeath_]

The worst thing is that some adults are stupid enough to not see any problem with things like this as well. My mother was once helping me with a project for my biology class, and she actually had some ethanol that we used as a heat source. She actually tried to pour (slow pour from just above the bowl, may I add) more into the bowl of burning alcohol. I somehow managed to react instead of freezing up (which I do most times in situations like that) and push her hand away, but I was just stammered at how an adult could do something so stupid. She chose alcohol precisely because it's very flammable, and still almost burned herself with it. It's very chilling in retrospect after I heard that a girl actually died because of the burns she gave herself this way.

[@rn2787]

The final thing that nobody has mentioned for blame in the girl's death is the school system/teaching of fire safety. I can still remember talks from the fire service about *never* pouring flammable liquids onto an open flame. Of course they might have known and just had a temporary lapse in judgement, but if I was the authorities in that case I'd definitely be looking into whether kids are getting the incredibly important lessons on fire safety that could actually save their lives. And the information should (and hopefully has) be updated to cover these types of online videos.

[@leeyan9946]

What i love most about ann reardon’s debunking videos is that she actually TRIES and EXPERIMENTS for us and shows us WHILE EXPLAINING the rationale behind everything.

[@graeplant4880]

If KZbin has decided “Yes, this video is acceptable/ doesn’t break our guidelines” and someone gets hurt because of said video, I do believe KZbin should be held accountable.

[@steelpump100]

i would say youtube and the content creator

[@lordramuel1082]

That's stupid. What if I saw a video on KZbin of a cliff diver and went to dive off a cliff without training and died? That is not the video's fault it's my own dumbass's fault. It's the same with those two girls.

[@steelpump100]

Lord Ramuel yes but in this instance it's not common sense. These tutorials are made for kids, and when they see no warning labels or anything, they think something is safe, and they try it, and since the creator made a tutorial for kids, they intend the kids to do the very dangerous act, so no, it's still the content creators fault. If you advertise something as safe and easy to do (said by the titles of 5 minute crafts), then kids will do them, and if you lie about the safety of the dangerous act, you should be held accountable. Driving off a cliff is not the safe as spinning "harmless" caramel over a beater to make a cool dessert topping. It seems safe, easy, and delicious, so who wouldn't try the caramel? But unlike the cliff driver, it actually LIES about how dangerous it is, and doesn't show a person getting burned, or a label saying "do this with parent, or under parent supervision". Driving off a cliff and expecting to die is common sense, but seeing hot caramel almost solidify instantly and thinking that's real and safe is also common sense. However, it is not common sense to think the caramel is dangerous at first glance, and that the cliff is safe. So no, pretty different.

[@chaosmagican]

I'm against that. If I'm right in the pretense we will see shortly in the realm of copyright but if you make the platform accountable for things like this they will not want to take that responsibility and overblock heavily (aka anything that could be slightly dangerous would be blocked or disallowed). Also why is it that parents are seemingly never in the equation? Frankly if kids (little kids) have unadministered access to flamables and the means to ignite them in their own homes, sorry that is 99,99% fault of the parent's lack of supervision. My parents never asked or cared where I got a stupid idea from, I did the mess, I had to stand for it. "but xyz did it too" wasn't even an argument

[@steelpump100]

Shinji Matou even if videos are meant for kids, it's not like you'd not put safety labels, plus, 5 minutes crafts is notorious for having kids content and still saying "no it's not made for kids" when it is. They are lying, and Ann readon actually talked about this in another video. They literally have a channel called 5 minutes crafts kids, and they still don't check the "it's made for kids" box. Also, fake videos or dangerous videos without warning shouldn't exist anyway, so it's not the parents fault for watching every single "kid" video with them. Remember, the major demographic of 5 minute crafts is kids, so wether or not it was intended that way, they have a style that kids watch, and it's not the parents' responsibility to expect a video made for kids to have "dangerous" acts with no warnings. Also, side note, 5 minutes craft showed the caramel being safe and you wouldn't burn, all you gotta do is get an egg beater, but Ann reason showed us that's fake. Is it the parents fault for not checking if a video is fake or not? Parents don't know what content farms are. Besides, the entire POINT of a recipe is supposed to be instructions, so if the video isn't real instructions and you have to do research on your own, then what's the fucking point of recipe videos? Same goes with life hacks, if you do a life hack that "works" and it doesn't work, then you shouldn't just not watch every single life hack or recipe. Content farms are outliers to the huge amount of legit and safe life hacks/recipes, so the parents shouldn't have to compensate for scummy businesses trying to gain money

as a new father to a 7 week old boy and already worrying about his future, and I know this is probably not the popular opinion, but I feel the responsibility falls on the parents. As parents we should be teaching our children critical thinking and also being aware of the content they are consuming. As much as we want other people or entities, like KZbin, to protect us from stuff like this, it doesn't change the fact that we will always deal with misinformation, and sometimes that misinformation is intentionally dangerous, and it can come from any source. And in the example given in this video, the events might have been a lot less tragic if the girls had made their parents a part of their project. I would want my son to tell me if he wants to try something like that, and then I can research it and figue out if its safe, and then use that as a nice practical learning experience.

[@Dani-nu4il]

@@macromicro3609 Rather than helicopter parenting I'd say it's a matter of trust and properly parenting your child. Fostering trust so that your child knows they can ask you to do these things with them. So they know if it turns out it's not a good idea or dangerous they won't be mocked or scolded. Instead they know their parent will help them find a safe way to experiment. It also means letting your child know not to believe everything on the internet and that it can be dangerous not only for the child but for others. For example, "I see you want to follow this tutorial. Let's do some research together and if it's safe we'll get the supplies for it." or "Unfortunately this tutorial isn't safe. We can find a similar one that is or an entirely new one, what do you want to do?"

"Imagine that hot caramel stuck to your skin..." I don't have to imagine. I've been making homemade candy for decades, and I have received plenty of nasty burns from hot sugar syrup. It is essentially culinary napalm, and should be handled with care at all times. Thank you Ann for reinforcing this point and calling out the irresponsibility of these other KZbin channels!

[@youdonthavetheprivilegetok5153]

N R have fun telling the hospital you licked burning hot caramel!

[@PhillipRajcany]

I worked in a kitchen that was missing safety equipment and in my haste to keep up with the kitchen, a pot of hot liquid cinnamon sugar syrup spilled onto my left arm, leaving a second degree burn all along the underside of my forearm. Anything hot and sugary really poses more danger than, say, a pot of boiling water, which may scald you but it will not stick to you like melted candy would. I think that content creators need to be very precise and clear about warning of danger and who should or should not perform what is seen in a video, much the same way as a magician on stage will tell their audience that, "what I am doing is dangerous and should not be performed at home, without professional training."

[@serenaalvord3745]

I have nerve damage in my thumb, fore, and middle fingers on my right hand because of sugar burns. My rule is to always double glove so, if some tries to stick to you, you can take it off immediately and it will not have had a chance to melt through.

[@gnuthad]

My mother received quite bad burns when she was a child due to hot caramel. In those days the instructions on tins of condensed milk called for it to be simmered for quite a long time in the unopened can. Mum went to check the water not long before the cooking time had finished and found that it had boiled dry. Unfortunately the movement of the now-dry pan and the overheated can inside caused the can to burst open and spray her with burning caramel.

[@57thorns]

@@jloayvs1869 The difference is that many of the censored channels are (by Googles standard) controversial in a way that may negatively impact ad revenue. They will have a fairly small following, but have a hard time reaching the millions of views that these channels get (and How To Cook That is one of the very very large channels). Many channels grow organically, by slowly adding a few thousand followers now and then, then growing to maybe 50k or 100k by providing high quality content. The dangerous ones roasted here are channels that need massive advertising to get viewers, and keep their viewers hooked by using cheap, fast fakes. They are mostly aimed at children (or at least teenagers and children make up a majority of their viewers) and they create tons of ad revenue, as the people watching are not the kind of person to use an ad blocker. But KZbin are more than happy to send everyone to these fake channels, because even if only a small fraction get stuck, it is enough to create more revenue. If KZbin were to ban channels that spread dangerous material without reasonable warning, or act on improper ad placement in the video in the same vicious way they allow the music industry to claim any video acting jury, executioner and claimant at the same time, these channels would never rebuild their following. These channels depend on brand name recognition and KZbin supplying them with a platform for their message.

I think it should be the responsibility of the channels to ensure that anything they recommend doing is safe for people, especially their target demographic. However, it should also be the responsibility of KZbin to monitor things that do not follow this rule. The lines are blurred in these scenarios because there are things shown that should not be tried at home but should still remain on the platform. A video of a guy falling off the roof in a funny way should not be remade, but it should not be taken down, either. I believe that if they advertise the video as "inspiration" or as a "DIY", they should have to follow more rules that ensure the safety of those performing it.

I mean, I can sort of understand. Strictly speaking, the video itself doesn’t posses any content that violates KZbin’s Term and Services, so there’s really no reason to take it down or demonetize it. However, I DO think that videos that deal with dangerous objects, chemicals, etc, SHOULD have warnings. Like it was stated, there are a TON of kids on KZbin (even though those girls weren’t really supposed to be using KZbin because they weren’t old enough). It’s important to keep that in mind when you use a platform like KZbin. This situation was just an unfortunate event, and I don’t think placing blame on any one person is the way to go. The uploader should’ve used warnings, the kids shouldn’t have tried to make this without adult supervision, and the parents should have been more attentive on what their kids were doing and with what. Everyone in this situation made mistakes.

The video she posted showed a safe way of popping popcorn using a can. If the girls had followed her tutorial that accident wouldn’t have happened. However, you can’t really blame the girls, either. They are very young and at an age where they don’t necessarily understand how the world works and that for certain things you have to follow exact instructions or you will get hurt. There are grown adults who don’t know that flame travels up poured alcohol, so I’m not shocked that they didn’t know. As for the parents, you can’t really blame them either. I doubt they were around when the girls were trying something like this. I’m guessing they used rubbing alcohol or something like that which is a common household item used in first aid and cleaning. It’s not like there would be much reason to keep it locked away because they are past the age of trying to drink unknown substances (and it tastes too nasty to really worry about naughty kids trying to drink it to get buzzed). It’s just a tragic accident all around which shows that creators need to be a bit more on top of giving safety warnings whenever they use substances that could cause harm if mishandled. That won’t necessarily stop all of these kinds of accidents from happening because stuff like this can just happen cause kids will get it in their head that they know how something works when they don’t.

@@hadiakhan6658 The idea that a flame will travel up a liquid and in to the bottle of the flammable liquid isn't actually completely easy to believe at first. The flames jump.

When i have kids I'm going to have a rule: if you hear of a cool experiment online or at school etc, you tell me about it and we do it together. Im all for kids being curious, especially when it comes to science or creativity. I've worked in childcare, if kids dont fear you saying no all the time, they will come to you. If its unsafe or questionable, I'll explain why with research and examples. That said, KZbin's response and attitude towards potentially dangerous videos is deplorable and they are absolutely responsible for removing said videos. It's a shame 5 minute crafs etc have so many views that KZbin doesnt want one of their best earners taken down. Yuck.

[@undeadphaeon]

Exactly people should promote learning for their kids and safety as well it's very beneficial to everyone to have kids learning creative and scientific things and is very important later in life because they don't just blindly follow potentially dangerous activities without talking to the parent(s) first. Because if your child trusts you they will talk to you and generally make better decisions long term.

[@jesusisthetruth4497]

Nicola Hooy oooo

[@julielove370]

That might work... but not past like 10 years old. You can’t be watching them all the time, and they are going to want to be independent sooner or later. Better practice would be teaching them about how to do experiments safely, ie what chemicals are dangerous to use, how to use heat safely, and things like that.

I feel like Ms. Yeahs videos are not supposed to be taken as “tutorials” or “hacks” as she has never marketed them that way so I don’t think that the blame lies 100% on her. But definitely a disclaimer (for children especially) should be used in all videos like this.

melissa Ms yeah actually did have that in English and Chinese. But they ignored it. Ms yeah never claimed to be a life hack channel. But an entertainment channel. She’s a woman turning her work office into a kitchen with lots of love pets and funny antics and a silky guy always flirting with her. That’s nowhere near life hack. The curious creations of Christine McConnell is actually informative with real recipes but you don’t see people trying to live with a real werewolf do you?

Thanks to you description on how to make the candy cake decorations, it has given me the method of how to add the flavouring from a coffee boiled sweet or hard candy to a cake by using the pulverising it into a powder method and adding it with the sugar.
