Is a BREAD SLICER worth the space?!

[@elenaschel1312]

Hi👋🏼 I‘m one of those 20 germans who messaged you😂those „Brotschneidemaschinen“ are TOTALLY worth the space😄

[@Thevietvegan]

XD Y'all know your bread!! It's been such an awesome appliance!

[@itsactuallyrandom]

German has a lot of cool words like that don't you? Words that are a smushing of things? Forgive my ignorance lol

[@CarinaCoffee]

@@itsactuallyrandom yeah we do! I think they're called compound words in English. Basically you take words and add them in a row and they make sense. Kinda how bread knife is also to words that describe a specific thing, but in German you can almost describe anything with a compound word. One of the longest is "Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher" it is one of those kitchen gadgets that help you take off the head of a soft boiled egg.

[@itsactuallyrandom]

@@CarinaCoffee that is so friggin cool. What a cool language!

[@TheTamago]

When it comes to bread, the answer is always *yes*

[@itsactuallyrandom]

Would you could you eat some bread? Would you could you on your head?

[@Thevietvegan]

@@itsactuallyrandom LMAO dude you are so weird you're my fave

[@britishteaparty]

I have one of these, I bought it years ago so that I could make healthier deli meat for my SO without all of the added junk, but only used it for that a couple of times and it has since lived in the closet. You've inspired me to pull it out for bread, which never crossed my mind!

[@janett8111]

I used to work at a deli (pre being veggie)... occasionally someone would come in and ask for super thick slices of baloney/bologna. I was so confused, but frying it up like a bologna steak is apparently a thing. So the wide slice setting could have been for that.

[@naturallyeclectic6191]

Why did I click on this video, now searching for a bread slicer 😂?!?!? 😍🥰 such a sucker for kitchen gadgets and I flipping love bread (can’t wait to try out some of your recipes)

[@Thevietvegan]

Ahahaha it is a very handy kitchen gadget, can confirm XD

[@naturallyeclectic6191]

@@Thevietvegan you are awesome, thank you for helping me keep some kind of sanity through your wonderful videos

[@BeingReal1]

Same! A fetish for kitchen gadgets😅

[@nancyneyedly4587]

We use an electric kitchen knife to cut bread, it stores away small. Can use it for cutting many things. The electric knife doesn't squish the soft loaves and still cuts through the crusty ones. We also have a collapsible bread cutting guide, folds away into the size of like 3x30x20cm.

[@earnestherbivore1826]

I love kitchen appliances as well. My immersion blender has been my go to lately.

[@Thevietvegan]

OOF yes the immersion blender is a BAMF of an appliance!

[@itsactuallyrandom]

*opens closet* Juicer of Shame: Lisa!!!!! Hey!!! It's been so lo- *Slams closet door*

[@lorengaff2782]

Can we just appreciate how long and beautiful Lisa’s hair is right now?! 👏🏼

[@itsactuallyrandom]

Omg... When you say it loud it just inflates her massive ego lol! /s

[@hr6128]

i actually dont mind the audio, you sound like an old timey radio announcer and its very fun

[@f.k.5548]

Lots of love from Germany! Well, maybe I´m the only german without a "Brotschneidemaschine" (but with a rice cooker XD). Everyone I know have one, seriously... sometimes they are very extra with a marble pedestal, etc.

[@Veleanoria]

Another German here and this is sooo worth the space! haha We do not mess with our bread y'all!

[@checkard90]

Thank you so much for making this video! I loved watching it and it made me really consider getting one! Please continue with this series. 💜

[@SMsneakyninja]

I hope you give your juicer another go. Great video, thanks Lisa!

[@anwiel]

Not only Germany, we use it in Czech Republic too :) and I love it, I suck in cutting bread :D

[@lindsaytoussaint]

“That was not a fun time digestively” 🤣

[@LaurenVacula]

i'm kind of fascinated by this thing!

[@betsysmith9176]

I haven't even watched the video yet, but I moved to a country where they have a bread slicer, and I want to say YES. Not for slicing bread. If you intend on just slicing bread, absolutely not. ...But I love making oven baked tomatoes. There is no other device that can slice tomatoes so thinly and quickly. Also, zucchini lasagna? Yes. Vegan cheez? Much better than a cheez slicer. (I am a German living in Sweden, and that word literally means bread slicing machine, also pretty sure my machine is exactly the same one.)

[@joelouellet7229]

I bought a version of this that is almost like a carbon copy of yours. Everything except the name and the add-in of a mechanism that allowed you to adjust the slice thickness. I bought mine from walmart here in Canada.

[@jolienwinters2610]

I thought it was so funny when I saw this on your Instagram because I also got a bread slicer from my grandmother and been loving it for my breads! Though it's on loan, and she'll want it back, so in some way good thing Covid-19 is keeping us apart at the moment, more easy cutting for me.

[@Thevietvegan]

Hahaha Germans and Grandmas know WHATS UP with the bread slicer XD

[@user-qx1om2wj1h]

Yes keep it, it doesn't take up much space and you use it often enough that's it's worth it. - The juicer on the other hand doesn't seem worth it ,they are usually hard to clean,take up a lot of space ,you lose a lot of nutrients that are in the pulp and have a hard time figuring out what to do with the left over pulp.

[@Thevietvegan]

Also I'm super sorry about the audio quality, all the other videos I filmed that day are fine with the mic under my shirt but for some reason, being by my neck and in the open air means that I sound like I shoved the mic in a toilet bowl. THAT SURE MAKES SENSE. I did the best I could with editing ^^; better audio quality in the next videos!

[@pauliniemeanie]

I'm just excited that you said "all other videos you filmed"..which means more videos :)

[@Thevietvegan]

Hahah those videos are already live ;) The sourdough bread and the discard cookies were all filmed on the same day!

[@pauliniemeanie]

@@Thevietvegan hahaha no worries! I enjoy rewatching your videos/listening to your videos while I work.

[@KW-up2ox]

I pretty much only buy unsliced bread but I just like a good serrated knife so I can cut to my desired thickness depending on the day. I’m not picky about even slices but it makes sense for folks that are particular about such things!

[@kerrieleigh]

Your channel is so fun! What a great video idea 😁

[@rosygallaway]

Cool! I just use an IKEA bread knife for sourdough and it’s pretty good. I cut up a whole loaf to freeze the other day and it was pretty satisfying

[@nicolefaith9972]

Ah man! My grandparents had one of these but I don't know where it ended up. I bake sometimes but also buy sourdough locally where they don't slice the loaves so this would be perfect.

[@careTWOdance]

Every loaf I bake I feel like I'm getting better at cutting uniform slices, but then I cut a slice and the bottom is super thin -_- Haha. I would totally buy a bread/food slicer, but I have the same issue of wanting all the kitchen appliances and my bf is not about it with the amount of space we have to store them all. Just bought a Challenger Bread Pan most recently and I love it!

[@ThePotThickens]

Haha. That is a creative use for a meat slicer! I love it.

[@summerjoy1352]

I also love food appliances.

[@marielomaniac]

This video made me real happy for some reason xd All your bread looks so amazing 🤤🤤

[@Julia-gn6yl]

your NAILS 😍😍😍😍

[@cindym6138]

Got one 42 years ago from my German Mother in law when I got married. Mine was not electric. It's for meats and bread. I never used mine.... she used hers daily.

[@Kx____]

do you have a plant milk machine? if so, do you enjoy it? is it worth the space?

[@Thevietvegan]

I do not! I imagine if people like homemade plant milks it would be worth it, but since I'm allergic to most nuts and fresh soy milk, I tend to stick to storebought. I like the fortifications anyway haha.

[@SamElle]

you see, the besssst part of a bread knife is you can cut your bread as THICK as ya want and it and you best believe yo girl loves a thick slice of toast HAHAHA

[@Thevietvegan]

Hahahaah I like me a thick toast but I prefer even slices XD

[@itsactuallyrandom]

I love cutting it by hand as well! But to be fair, I've never tried the slicer so I think that might be biased...

[@SamElle]

@@itsactuallyrandom hmmm, yea ive never tried a slicer either!! But there's also something so so satisfying about manually slicing!

[@itsactuallyrandom]

@@SamElle so true... My wife always just smashes the bread when she uses the bread knife... But it really does feel good to let the knife do the work and have a nice, unevenly cut slice of bread XD

[@ArtandAudacity]

It folds!?! Now I definitely need to keep an eye out for one.

[@emilysanders5385]

I looked these up just because I was curious and lows has some really nice looking ones for between 70-90 dollars which is significantly less then I thought it would be

[@Thevietvegan]

That's not bad at all! I've seen some between $100-200, I haven't really found anything as simple or foldable as this one o_O

[@MrNioMoon]

I feel the same wat about kitchen appliances. They spark joy ^_^

[@JustSheilz]

I wish I would have kept the slicer I used to have but we didnt have any extra room.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Great video and I wouldn't buy a bread slicer because it's not worth taking up space in my kitchen because I never cut bread because I haven't made homemade bread yet and usually just buy store bought bread which is always sliced.

[@cloverbrease]

Your new toaster/airfryer!!1

[@CarinaCoffee]

As a German this sure is a blast from the past! My grandma used to have one too and it was always out on the counter next to the fridge. Funny you mentioned it being a deli slicer, I'm pretty sure my grandma also mentioned you can slice stuff like that with it too, but yeah, us Germans we usually use it for bread. I wouldn't buy one unless I baked my own bread, because you can have the bakery slice the bread for you, free of charge and supermarket breads also either come pre-sliced or if it's a supermarket where they freshly bake frozen bread and bread buns each day, a few of them also have a bread slicing station there where you put it into the machine and it slices it for you.

[@charlenestraw.]

Great video! I low key want this slicer. But also just wanted to let you know that there’s no link for the air fryer review in your description.

[@Thevietvegan]

Oops! Fixed it :)

[@claratiefengraber]

Didn't realize it wasn't normal to have one of those hahah.

[@Hebbybya]

I feel like bread maker machines were super popular in the 90's as well so I'm not surprised this might be from the 90's? I don't see anyone mention using a bread maker anymore, though.

[@Thevietvegan]

Eddie's parents have one! I think he kind of wants one but I think I can make sandwich loaves without it XD I just like sourdough bread better ehe

[@windsorlewis3344]

Yes, worth the space when you bake your own bread. ❤🍞

[@andreaudorsey6959]

lisa! you are soso pretty!

[@domy6827]

now I want one ... even though I barely eat any bread

[@Thevietvegan]

XD BUT ALL THE BREAD YOU COULD CUT

[@CK-yl9ep]

The reason I don't bake more bread is because I am just so terrible at cutting it! I really have no space but if I did I would definitely get one of these

[@Thevietvegan]

Yeah I will admit that the even slices makes for a significantly more enjoyable bread experience XD Grilled cheese and sandwiches are a lot more manageable!

[@rockinstrawberries]

first? Here with "no views" :O

[@amberlyn1492]

What lipstick do you use? So pretty

[@Thevietvegan]

It's NYX liquid matte lip in Budapest (although upon further investigation, I think that the matte lip has beeswax but the metallic lip, which I normally get, is vegan friendly, but I think recently they might have changed it so they're both vegan? I'm unsure. I'm pretty sure the stand said VEGAN on it when I bought it)

[@kendallstone5819]

do you have to sharpen the blade...ever?

[@Thevietvegan]

Probably eventually? It could probably use a sharpening now but it's alright haha. I might take it to a local knife shop to see if they can do it

[@JPMasonDun]

The German name literally means-bread cutting machine.
