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 debunking viral Tik Tok and facebook videos that have been sent in to me. Fake food videos seem to be on the rise because they re being rewarded by the platforms with views. In this episode lets look at does Pepsi make worm parasites come out of pork? Can you dice strawberry with razor blades? Can you make pear jelly using lemonade? Does storing strawberries in a jar make them last longer? Can you cook steak in a toaster? Join me for food science, creative cakes, chocolate & desserts, new video every second Friday.

As someone who's worked in retail for years: the def doesn't pay for that, and some 16-year-old making min wage was forced to clean it up.

Update: After watching this, I started storing my strawberries in glass jars, and it really does keep them fresher longer. It’s fantastic.

[@geneivemary4234]

If I get lots of very ripe strawberries from the market I cut and simmer them with sugar... cool down and put in the fridge. Lasts for weeks. Great with yoghurt and smoothies. I've been keeping all my fruit and vegetables in glass jars for years. Much better than plastic. I'm no scientist but I believe the glass gets and stays colder. Keeping stuff fresher for longer. No plastic!

[@yayalucia7997]

@@geneivemary4234 I think it's cus glass is so solid. It has no give, no bend, so once it is closed and sealed, it's airtight. Plastic has give. And it honestly doesn't matter how much give plastic has or not if you keep your fruits in the containers they come in, with all the holes. They have those holes to keep them fresh and misted in the grocery store, but they immediately work in the opposite way when you take them home cus now those holes no longer keep your fruit fresh but they make them age super quick in the fridge. Glass jars are the best way to go

​@@letsdoodlesomethinghome3404Strawberries are acidic. Not a great idea to store them in metal long term. Aluminum will probably stain the container and leech aluminum into your berries. Stainless steel is even worse, because it will have nickel and Chromium in it. You really don't want to eat those. So if you store berries in metal, eat them quickly.

As I was searching about for things I might be interested in here on 'You Tube', I saw THIS video I am now commenting on. Well, as soon as I saw the info regarding your 'new' cookbook, PLUS THE CONTEST, I went to Amazon to get the book. I just LOVE getting cookbooks from folks I truly admire and trust regarding the info shared by them, and YOU are one of THE BEST! Sadly for yours truly here, I found the contest WAY over already (CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS - YEA YOU! 😁). But honestly, as much as I can use a nice set of knives in the kitchen (I wore mine out a while back and just can't aford the money for a GOOD set; heck, not even ONE of the better Chef's Knives out there. sigh But I truly mostly just care that I FOUND your wonderful cookbook. YEA ME! Any who, I can just keep sharpenning my trusty 'RADA' knives my mama gave me about thirty years ago... lol. I have the bread, paring and what I think is a boneing knife. WOW! All three have been sharpenned SO much that about HALF of what was there in front of the handles is gone!!! 🤣 Well, the bread knife is almost all there still. This channel is like a bright light shining the way to truthfulness for me. THANK YOU SO MUCH for what you bring to my video absorbing brain!!! You and your hubby are THE BEST. Wishing you all the best from across 'the pond', from here in Adams, MA. Oh, I have gotten SEVEN others to follow the channel - had to threaten two of 'em. ;-)

@@EmilyLennoxchannel I’d like to think that they brought the oranges in after paying for them, but that’s wishful. As for doing it in a store, it’s to fool people and make it seem more legitimate. Filming in store means there’s people in the background that aren’t a part of your script. People are getting wise to these stupid fake videos, and if you film at home in a ‘studio esque’ setting, it’s easier to cut the footage to look legit, and we’re all getting more sceptical about that now.

Once I told him about it we tried it out, and now the berries last much longer, he can enjoy them longer and doesn't have to buy as many as often. No matter what we keep them in sealable, glass containers. So thank you Ann Reardon. Your channel is really helping people, unlike the ones you debunk every day.

The time it took her to put the razor blades into the strawberries, she could have just cut them. I can't believe that these people are allowed to get away with spreading misinformation without giving notice that it's false or not real.

[@ThatFoxxoLeo]

Also not only that, but shaking it around in a container is more likely to just smash the strawberry rather than miraculously and perfectly pushing a razor blade in that somehow got in between the wall and the strawberry at an angle around 90 degrees. It'd be so much better to actually intentionally cut strawberries in a way you KNOW will look nice rather than shaking a container and leaving it up to chance.

Also, this just keeps bugging me. That toaster hack is a full blown fire hazard. Toasters are not made to deal with fat and grease.

[@darthplagueis13]

It really isn't. Toasters aren't made for it, sure, but they are made to prevent crumbs and other things from catching fire. And fat and grease don't catch fire that easily. Sure, you can burn them, but outright igniting them is near impossible (that's one of the main reasons why candles have a wick, just turning a bunch of fat on fire really doesn't work well). Like, it's gonna be a pain in the arse to clean up a toaster after using it like that, but honestly, normal bread probably has a higher chance of causing a fire than a steak would, just because it's relatively dry and not very dense and it contains a lot of air.

But its really hot here rn, so i thought i'd clean them, cut them up and put them in clean jars, just to test it. They don't lose much moisture at all and stay nice and fresh longer, also they are very refreshing when served cold rn. I doubt you can keep them in there for 2 weeks without them getting moldy, but they don't usually survive a few days in my household anyway, so this is definitely an improvement.

Yeah! Doesn't need to be glass, any airtight container will work as long as you don't wash the strawberries.

[@kamui004]

Most modern countries with industrialized farming and meat industry it's pretty rare for you to get parasites in meat. In fact where I live we eat plenty of pork and years back some veterinaries working for pig farms and abattoirs were interviewed about the subject and told a funny story that in school in the parasite studies they had a hard time studying them and all were preserved samples. Any field studies and attempts to get fresh ones yielded none, all thanks to improved environment, diet, hygiene and medication for these farms.

I thought the same thing like isn't that chick lucky as hell that she didn't electrocute herself??

[@lauriechan1426]

@@Oswald_Thatendswald i think it was super fake. She probably cooked it in a pan, then put it in the toaster for like a couple seconds just to record, then edited the whole thing

[@chemariaagbassah943]

I’m pretty sure u can start an electric fire too

[@jgf4224]

And a little side of burning down the house, maybe.

As a physics major in university, I found it impressive how well you were able to explain centrifugal force.

[@beardiemom]

Ann might be a food scientist, but she is still an actual scientist.

[@TheEmeraldLady]

She's a food scientist and food science also entails chemistry and physics

[@blueangela87]

I misread your major as psychic at first and was for a second like 🤨😟😰🤬 lol

[@petalchild]

Sort of. She demonstrated circular motion while the "hack" had more to do with rotational motion.

[@13Wolfie13]

As a person with two university degrees, a BA and BS, I find it adorable that a physics student doesn’t understand that a degree in food science involves having a working knowledge of many disciplines, including physics. (Do you see how condescending that sounds?)

Apparently, centrifugal force is real. Really, it just apparent.

Those steak and 'instant grilled cheese' in a toaster videos are a good way to start a fire

[@crowdemon_archives]

Ho boi, grease fire.

[@moistorphan]

Who wouldve guessed that we shouldn’t use items for things that are not their intended purposes!

[@The153289]

They probably just watched the GMM episode where they did it, and thought they could make it a "hack" video

[@merrowley]

Toasters are already the leading cause of house fire idk why people feel the need to make it worse

[@Alteusgirl]

i dont understand those grilled cheese one because nowadays you can litteraly buy things to make grill cheese in the microwave (like the Mico one, i have it it's amazing). why would you even bother with a toaster. most student i've seen have a microwave and no toaster XD

[@tarren452]

None of these idiotic 'entertainment' tiktok videos are nearly as impressive as your lad swinging that bucket without getting a drop of water on himself!! 👏

[@Taolan8472]

I was waiting for dave to come up behind him and stop the bucket

[@Bmonkeygurl]

I do that with my students. It is always fun to suprise them every year.

[@becky3983]

I remember when James was this little kid

[@ashlinero]

I do it all kinds of materials and it is so much fun especially when a deck of cards falls on your head (not really pls do not fail at this it hurts) 😂

[@gaymerjerry]

@@Bmonkeygurl My physics teacher did the same thing but he also was made sure tonever call it centrifugal force it was inertia and he hated calling it centrifugal force because its technically not an external force its an inertial force and he didnt want to confuse high school physics students when talking about circular motion and saying the force needed to accelerate an object in a circle is centripital

we have strawberry strawberry switchblade at home- the strawberry switchblade at home: the strawberry jar is a fabulous idea though. And think im gonna make the pear jelly because I’ve got some Agar that i need to use.
