[@SolisSlays]

I mean I think it’s because it’s 1. An easily eaten food (its liquid and mush with chicken) 2. Fairly easy to make (broth, chicken, veggies, seasoning, done) 3. Full of nutrients (chicken is protein, mixed vegetables are vegetables) 4. It has a light flavor (saltines with stomach issues anyone?). Note: this is just my hypothesis, not fact in the slightest and is based on personal experience

[@cloverpepsi]

This video really highlights what I like most about this channel, the fact we get to see Mat and other members of Team Theorist just goofing around with food stuffs. Obviously their getting actual findings and doing actual experiments, but the energy given off in these videos is much more relaxed and feels like Team Theorist is bringing you into their home to talk about foods. Unlike the other channels (which i still absolutely adore so dont get the wrong idea) which both have much more of a presenter feeling where the fact cold hard facts are being given to you is really pushed to the forfront. Don't get me wrong, I love all 3 theory channels regardless, but I have to be in a specific "learning" mood for the other channels, whereas it doesn't matter what mood im in im always happy to watch food theory.

It doesn't only "melt," there's another problem... imagine running a ball of bread dough under running water... you're going to wash a lot of the flour out of the dough. In fact, that's a method of isolating the gluten from flour, run a ball of dough under water until the starches are all washed away, leaving the gluten behind

[@Jurgler]

Was looking for this. Thank you

[@GremlinSciences]

It's actually not melting at all. The bits of cookie dough do remain solid at room temperature, but are very soft and the combination of water and sifting serves to break them apart. They could have gotten all the dough a lot easier by simply emptying the tub onto a sieve to melt, maybe use a heat gun or blow drier if that's too slow.

Actually, for anyone who wants to know, it's actually really easy to make edible cookie dough that has no risk of getting you sick. The main two things you really have to worry about with the dough is salmonella from the eggs which can be removed entirely from the recipe (Remember back to the cake ingredients recipe, eggs are really only a binding agent to hold it together while it cooks, something you don't have to worry about if it's raw), and E. Coli from the flour. That is a bit harder to deal with, but all you do is put the flour you need on a cookie sheet and cook it in the oven at 350 degrees for about 5 minutes. After that you just combine all of the ingredients except eggs and voila, safe edible cookie dough.

@@HistoricalOlive i also don't know, but, they probably eat raw eggs or something, or the germs can't reproduce, since the country is basically an natural freezer.

@@HistoricalOlive yes, there are no worries eating neither raw eggs or flour here. Extreme fitness people drink raw eggs to gain some extra protein.

To anyone who's still confused by the joke here, the joke was that there's two tubs of Edy's Slow Churned Cookie Dough that Mat accidentally compared in the intro

[@Kevmoens]

go to culvers and get a soda cup full of just cookie dough here's what you say when you pull up "hi can I pls have a soda cup filled all the way with just the cookie dough?" and when you get home it will be softer, and you just have to mix it with egg to see how it turns out or you could also do it without the egg but I'm little bit skeptical about it without the egg or you could try BOTH! :) Sincerely a fan of 3 the channel's you have

2:15 Matt Patt man-splains everything Steph just said 😂😂

[@DreadKyller]

It's worth noting that not all edible cookie dough has the egg removed. The temperature required to pasteurize an egg is lower than the point where it becomes solid, so some brands still use egg, just pasteurized egg, similarly to the flour. The resulting dough ends up having a different texture (a bit more grainy and less smooth usually) and will tend to spread out more in the oven.

[@silverdragonslair]

Also, in other countries, raw eggs are considered salmonella safe and fine to consume.

[@ChaosTherum]

@@silverdragonslair In the US they are completely safe as well, we actually pasteurize most store bought eggs. There is basically zero risk of eating eggs raw.

[@thecosplaycrafter8017]

I'd like to take a moment to appreciate Matt's immense self-control not to eat the food he analyses prematurely.

[@moonandstars9529]

You can if you add some ingredients, such as baking powder and ap or cake flour plus any eggs as a binder.
