I Bought the First 10 Products TIKTOK RECOMMENDED... is ANYTHING worth buying??

[@MelpomenaBovary]

Dibs rant about herbs is so on point. 😂

[@Angelar79]

I love Rachael and Christopher as a couple her excitement to share everything with him makes my soul happy

[@MinMin-uy5pl]

I agree. I can not find enough wood around me to tap on just in case. When people ask what you want in a relationship, i say their type.

[@miaferradas7410]

Right! I need me a Christopher

[@Misspadthai]

I love how all the siblings come over all the time. It must be so nice to have that type of bond ❤

[@bnb0510]

I thought they all lives together. Lol

[@missbumblebee8290]

dibs works for Rachel from my memory

[@sisiwx6154]

I cackled at Christopher's "my faucet has a setting for stilled" 😂

[@csage04]

i feel seen by chris and rachel bc i HEAVILY notice the aftertaste of sucralose, every other artificial sweetener, and even stevia. i believe it’s a gene mutation like how some people hate cilantro, but to actually see someone review something and acknowledge it is really nice. most people just assume everyone can tolerate the taste and pretend it’s comparable to real sugar

[@kelqueen9998]

I agree. I can't deal with artificial sweeteners and it's so hard to find any kind of drink/water enhancer that isn't artificially sweetened.

[@dawnchesbro4189]

Is that why I hate almost all artificial sweeteners?? I get a chemical aftertaste that disgusts me. I can stand aspartame only in diet coke because my mom kept it in the house when we were young.

[@Kogobean]

omg this is me. the best way i can describe it is that it leaves a weird aftertaste that just makes me more thirsty. i can't drink flavoured carbonated water and diet sodas because of it.

[@louisacoote2337]

Yup, all the sugar alternatives have a horrible aftertaste to me!

[@jessicaahhhhh]

Stevia is the absolute worst one I reckon. Such a specific taste it overpowers everything

[@kallienielsen3898]

Rach thought you would like to know that if you keep basil out on the counter in a glass of water it will last 3-4 times longer than in the fridge. Just change the water weekly and you can have your basil last a month!!

[@tiffanytousignant2704]

You don't actually need to refrigerate basil when you put it in water. You can leave it in the counter. The stems will grow roots in the water. Just change the water every couple of days

[@rebel1612]

Can you plant it once it has roots?

[@tabithagonzalez1179]

​@@rebel1612yep! You can grow your own basil from cuttings. I'd recommend let the roots get a few inches long before planting.

[@lydiao4721]

Gotta say, the longer the video the happier I am each Saturday!! I absolutely look forward to each Thursday and Saturday for new videos. Absolutely love you and your family ❤

[@RachhLovesLife]

💗💗💗 thank you!

[@loriegabidel]

I'm a full-grown adult, and the only reason I brush my teeth the proper amount of time is that I have an electric toothbrush that alerts me when 2 minutes are up lol. I think the timer is a great idea.

[@jillsanto397]

Me too lol and my watch tells me when the 20 seconds is up for washing my hands

[@mikkilewis5312]

A nurse told me to use 2 rounds of "Henry the Eighth" as the correct time for hhand washing. Twenty seconds *is* adequate, though 30 is preferable.

[@KatieJ611]

Rachel is on point with the Simple Modern cups!! Way better than Stanley, Yeti, or any other brands that I’ve tried. I run a horse rescue in southwest Louisiana and it’s HOT! My Simple Modern 1/2 gallon water bottle is a lifesaver.

[@Caytierose]

XO Marshmallow has a blue raspberry flavor and I’m shocked Rach didn’t get that one 🤣 side note, love XO Marshmallow!!!

[@jenniferwellman5311]

I just bought one of their variety packs can’t wait to try it, I love marshmallows.

[@babbleingon]

Try their OMG! I love their s'mores flavor 🤤 it's so good frozen

[@annagrzywniak]

I work at sodastream in Europe and i can say that this co2 cylinders are the same :) sodastream cylinders have different types of valves i saw many different ones.

[@mrbroadwaydork]

I have the Thirsti and I am using my remaining soda stream canisters in it. It works perfectly fine!

[@letiziacastiglione2492]

20 secs for hand washing is the normal recommended time. Same time they mentioned during covid and same time Apple Watches count down to when you wash your hands. 😊👌🏻

[@pedanticm]

Christopher, that Oilers cap is perfect. Don't let anyone tell you different.

[@kata108]

Chris is such a nice person 😊 love you two's dynamics

[@rosemarybelore6622]

You make my day Rachel❣️ As a fellow Canuck I appreciate you and your families humour and camaraderie. The fact that your family is always around makes my heart happy ❤ I can’t wait for your videos to drop because there’s always something fun in them or going on around you lol Christopher you keep wearing your Oilers hats. This is our year!! 🙏🏼

[@hiitskaitlyn]

I didn't know that I needed a hat tour, but I'm glad I got one.

[@burky3490]

Absolutely loved the entire hat segment! So funny!!!!

[@stephaniejoobern1001]

Lol the hats and Rachel's "someone help me" 🤣

[@TheNinnyfee]

It was definitely a summer dad hat. And now I want a hat episode with Chris. 😊❤ And another marshmallow episode with less fruity flavours.

[@Supernova94805]

The OILERS!!!! Oh my goodness! LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM! Leon signing that contract! Holy!!!! So awesome! I love your videos so dang much and your energy just makes me smile through the screen ❤❤❤

[@emily4444143]

i don't think she'll see this, but this is my favorite type of girl. she is the BIGGEST girls girl i have ever seen and i feel so safe with her. and i just know she gives the best hugs.

[@jennifermorgan5846]

The flavored marshmallows would be fun in hot chocolate for the kids!

[@CatyDid629]

You should try the Sparkel drink carbonator! I love mine! It uses powdered activators instead of CO2 tanks and you can carbonate basically any liquid except milk...so carbonated water, juice, cocktails...the world is your oyster

[@brandysmith7240]

I would love to see the Sparkel tried as well.

[@keepyourmindopen]

I bought one of those water bottles (in teal) because of you; I absolutely love it! I use it everyday and I am so grateful for your dedication to testing them so I didn't waste my money my one that doesn't work as well. I live in Texas and having cold water in the car after grocery shopping in 100 degree+ weather makes it almost tolerable.

[@ScooterManCR]

I am a simple modern Stan. They off team logos on them which is awesome.

[@jessicadesmarais9256]

I didn't think you were suppose to put Basil in refrigeration at all. When you buy it in a grocery store, at least where I live, it's always stored at room temperature with the tomatoes, and all the other herbs are in refrigeration. Working in food service, I use to put it in refrigeration but it'd go brown/black so fast that I stopped and it kept longer. I'd be curious on the herb experiment with other herbs though.

[@L.a.77]

Where im from alot of herbs still have their roots

[@hg24ever]

Crazy how there are still SO many products recommended! Lol love the series though!

[@singingfan]

The hand washing timer should be able to be activated by motion. Would make it more hygienic like you pointed out as an issue. I wonder if there’s one that exists??

[@paigeversendaal]

I have the same simple modern cup in the light sage green color!!!! I take it everywhere it's amazing. I've had it for a few months now!!!

[@cindye7]

I love Simply Modern!the grippers you can get to put on the bottom are great! Love the cup holder that allows you to put the larger size water SM water bottles in the holder.

[@morganholly8309]

Chris is a Paul Walker doppelganger when he wears a hat. And I am so excited about the Ninja Thirsty. Thank you for testing all the things!

[@courtneystewart5263]

The aggressive “you WOULDNT” after Rachel asked Chris if he could smell the water flavor killed me hahaha

[@Naomi-pq6tv]

Thank you for letting us know that the flavorings are sweetened with sucralose.

[@B-Real-Pshh]

I absolutely adore you and have to say I bought my BF a Simply Modern cup and she's soooooo impressed and can't stop talking about how much she loves it!!!! She's a constant carrier of her drink cup so thank you for your test!!!

[@claudiochoices]

Chris was proud of his hats, I love them , look good on you , as daddy as he is. the black hat is cool as well but not as cool as the other ones. And the most important thing is used hats and shoes looks almost always better.

[@mikaduchna1987]

Whenever I buy fresh herbs (mostly parsley or dill, but basil works too) I wash them and stick almost immediately into the freezer (in a zip lock bag for instance) and later I chop from frozen just the amount I need. 100% recommend.

[@MinMin-uy5pl]

My new purchase for my look alike stanley cup, it the carrier with wallet on it over the shoulder like a purse. Works great.

[@kaylastahlbaum7265]

Gotta agree with you on the simple modern. I got sucked into the Stanley hype and bought a couple but the raspberry vibes simple modern, I needed it. And I love those bottles. More sleek, keeps ice frozen longer and (in Canada) they're half the price and cheaper if on sale. I'm a fully converted simple modern girlie

[@BullDurham12321]

I’m on the simple modern train 🎉 Love it

[@traceypajala6938]

That hot pink sweater looks amazing on you! That is definitely one of your colors!

[@jozi_en_pointe]

Christopher with the hat on looks like Chris Evans😂👏🏼 I just love the interactions with you and Chris and the close connection you have with your whole family❤ I so enjoy watching your videos. Thank you Rachel🫶🏽✨️

[@jenniferhil942]

Love the video! I’m a health expert that teaches kiddos about health and safety. Love the timer! Definitely going to be adding it to my list. And yes 20 seconds to wash your hands is what is recommended. ☺️(also make sure they scrub and create a lather on both sides of the hands and in between the fingers)

[@cathierainwater]

28:32 I'm wondering if the sensors are thin enough to place between the phone and its case.

[@clewless_kitty]

I just bought the pre-order of the xo marshmallow advent calendar for December a few weeks ago and now I’m so excited for them to get here. They always look so good

[@crystaldesjardin4321]

Never thought I'd hear Rachel say 🔥and then say I'm excited 😂❤

[@stephaniem87]

love from one Canadian to another 🥰

[@TheMiikka34]

For those with soda streams or similar devices, check out local businesses that refil fire extinguishers to get your co2 canister filled. Typically, they are called "xyz fire suppression." Im my area they charge 10 bucks to refil, as opposed to 24 to exchange or 40 to buy new.

[@laurapoitra5882]

Totally relatable with the hat situation 😂😅 I get it Rachel I get it. I use Alori collection brush soap to clean the hats works wonders

[@Jennikreads]

XO Marshmallows was started by an alumnae from my university! And they do have blue raspberry marshmallows! You should try them!

[@RachhLovesLife]

Oooo 👀

[@priyacray]

Agree with rachel on the "So handsome". I love Rach but Chris is my new fave ❤

[@jenniherranen1551]

Go Christopher, all Finns love those blueberries! 😊

[@Amberundergroundz]

I stumbled across your channel by accident and I'm so glad I did your now added to my weekly list with Mia and Hope!

[@Emily1672]

Love my Thirsti! I usually mix a Splash with one of the sweetened options. Balances the flavors. Good to know about the canisters. I believe I have a full one left over from my SodaStream (which I am now donating to Goodwill).

[@nitsirkroy]

3 mins in and Rachel has said “Stanley cup” and “offsides” … just in case you weren’t sure she’s Canadian 🇨🇦

[@B-Real-Pshh]

Absolutely love basil, wanna roll in it like a dog!!!! The paper towel trick works fine or it grows fine indoors too so just bring it in! The glass jar trick works best for asparagus, cut the bottom ends and put in a cup with a little water at the bottom, lasts weeks in the fridge

[@dolphinamoon]

Thier is this awesome thing called a hat form, you put your hat in it. And throw it on the top rack in the dish washer. Then lay out still on the form to dry. Perfectly clean hats, and no disfigurement. Amazing product.

[@bobbityjack]

Memory-wise it can be easier to remember where something is when you don't see it as often. Since you see your phone multiple times throughout the day you can remember seeing it several different places so it's harder to recall which is the most recent one.

[@jaimewallace6332]

I always say "if something has a home then even if I don't remember what I did with it, I do remember it's home" so this makes so much sense to me. Thanks. 🙂

[@brookeh5770]

I use the big glass herb container without the lid and inside thing for spring onions, with a plastic bag over the top. Change the water regularly and they stay fresh for a few weeks

[@christinegunzelmanatt1674]

Vineyard vines sells baseball hats made from a performance quick dry fabric that my husband loves! He’s swam in them many times, in lakes even, and you can’t even tell. They wash off so easy!

[@TheBacklistBetty]

I *adore* XO Marshmallow! We were able to visit their cafe in Chicago, and it was wonderful.

[@coreylynnwignall1556]

Are the ninja thirsti flavor bottles single serve or do they make multiple glasses of drink?

[@TruthandJustice_]

I love my Thirsti. It sits in my office! I do add my own lemon or lime juice for no sugar.

[@Laura.r...]

Great video! Ps basil bruises when it gets cold, keep it on your counter!

[@EpcStylz]

3:13 im not a gal but i love that snack holder, plus it looks like a little sombrero which is super cute 😂

[@kalseysmith8140]

I have been eyeing those marshmallows forever!!!!!

[@jessicadavies7181]

The marshmallow co Australia! You won’t be disappointed! SO many flavours, SO yummy and also the squishiest pillows of fun! Please, please try!

[@Shridra]

Chris talking about the Blue Jays hat reminded me of my Grampa, always wearing his foam front Blue Jays hat lol. My grandparents ran the elevators at the skydome after they retired, they were super proud of the Jays lol. I may have to get that hat for my hubby though - he works in a warehouse and sweats horribly, but he wears a ball cap all day. He's got some nice underarmor ones, but they get so dirty and stinky lol

[@helengunn]

I love simple modern i got one years ago on a whim fell in love and haven't got another brand since.

[@RachhLovesLife]

💯

[@lindsayvlogslife]

I wish the Stanley snack holder was a thing when I was in the early postpartum days. So perfect for new moms, especially if breastfeeding because we get absolutely ravenous while feeding our babies!

[@yaowsers77]

lmao when you said stanley cup, i thought you were talking about the trophy for ice hockey! 🤣😂

[@mandapiee1763]

I did the same thing once on twitter 😂😂😂

[@marciwhitman3513]

It's the same design

[@liesbeth9810]

28:24 I’m so happy with my Apple Watch, cause every time I lose my phone I can use my watch to find it. Just sound or with my flashlights flashing as well when I can’t locate it just with sound. It’s been a lifesaver for me lol 😝

[@swfern777]

Black Hat! ! !🎉🎉🎉 He looked great!

[@emilybradley1058]

I love watching both of your channels!

[@ashleyJean6]

I love all your hats Chris! By the way, they don't look dirty.😊 Love your videos Rachel! ❤🥰

[@stephanietakes-desbiens854]

I have found that the freshness of the herbs makes a huge difference in how long they last. I like the Oxo brand green saver line which comes in two sizes. I’m that I had cilantro last about 10 days. But I have also wrapped a bunch in damp towels in a takeout container and kept in the fridge for the same length of time. I would like to know the water bottle brand you have.

[@robdebl2414]

Love these videos!! Also, the simple modern travel mugs are the best!!

[@jessicawhite5666]

I grow basil for my flower farm and for culinary purposes. Basil HATES the cold. When the frost hits the basil patch, it all dies almost overnight. Do not refrigerate if you want to keep it for any length of time. Keep it on the counter.

[@kikichelo7449]

Agree with you about the Android Christopher! I have an Android, too! 😊

[@jessicajessica8690]

I glued one of those finder to my TV remote. Works amazing

[@B-Real-Pshh]

Idk why but Chris reminds me of a 80's/90's sitcom show character....like was he on Family Ties or something???? And you are such a cute couple!!!! It's hard to find your perfect person but you both did!!!

[@_Ki_]

I would use the lemon marshmallow to make a personalized lemon meringue concoction🤤😂!!!

[@jackiek5797]

Love your choice of team hats Chris!

[@Uhohlisa]

25:20 Girl... Happy Birthday is a 10 second song lol.

[@lh5670]

You likely know this - but ballcaps wash beautifully in the top rack of a dishwasher. I put a bit of dawn on the stains (there is a white one) but nothing else. Go Oil.

[@katea78]

Do you have an update on the timer for the hand washing / teeth brushing? How did kids like it? Was this helpful?

[@EmberDrake475]

Ohhh the herb saver, wonder if it could be turned in to a never ending aqua grow terrarium?? Idk what im talking about, it was just an adhd thought. Lol

[@sydneychamness2884]

So true. I lose my phone all the time but could tell you if you need a paper clip there’s one beside my desk on the floor next to the cat tower facing 156° NW

[@LyssaLynn1425]

I swapped the plastic SM straw out for a extra long glass curved one I got in a pack on Amazon and now that water bottle is simply unstoppable.

[@Debi_R]

XO has a sour blue raspberry marshmallow. They also have a latte one that is caffeinated 😮

[@tiffo2022]

A black hat is a wardrobe staple tho!!

[@courtneycaswell9413]

I keep my basil on my counter and change the water. If you can get a planted one for inside and water it from the bottom of the pot.

[@tiffanycarroll3951]

Don’t keep cut basil in the fridge at all! It’s much happier being out on the counter.

[@mahina113]

I think I saw one other person mention, but Basil actually keeps best on the counter! Maybe try the herb saver with rosemary or thyme instead?

[@natashasmith2028]

FYI per the CDC, and as a previous CNA, 20 seconds is the recommended time to wash your hands

[@ginnyfinbow9472]

Use the marshmallows for ultimate rice Krispie squares!!

[@staceynoffke]

I want the marshmallows. I also want to know what you're wearing on your lips when you were checking on the herbs after five days!

[@susannereri9249]

The Dad hat 😂

[@galeem713]

Soda stream has flavours. Root beer, ginger ale, 7up and more. Canadian tire sells them.
