@GyroCannon Do you find that in some KZbin videos that the people are talking faster than they used to ? Is it just me ?

[@wheelsndealz]

I think if it's a gadget meant to "help" someone perform something, like the first one, you should each have a go at it. Because Ann presumably has more skill than the average person, so if a device could be used by someone less skill to accomplish the goal then it would be good. Can Dave chop the onions as well as Ann or better than the device? Having both people are different levels testing a device will give a better representation of whether it is good or not. Also, there may be some trial and error involved, how long did it take to learn how to chop onions that well vs how long would it take to learn the device and achieve the best results from it?

[@Star1412s]

Yeah, I think that's a good point. Ann might have liked it better if she'd tried it. It looks like the garlic car was fun to use even if it took a little more effort. I could also see it being helpful for people with disabilities. Or maybe children who can't handle a knife yet with supervision.

I've used the garlic cutter before and it's actually very useful! You just have to do it differently than they did in the video. Rather than one bulb at a time with slow jerky pushes, you'd put all 3 in and give it fast smooth back and forth pushes with your full reach. The reason there were different sized chunks in the video was because they put them in at different times. One bulb got chopped 10 seconds, one for 5 seconds, and one for 2 seconds. Of course they're going to look different!

It's really interesting how there are completely different campfire-bread recipe in the world. In our group I'm always in charge of the German damper version "Stockbrot", which is also out of a simple dough but with yeast and without butter or milk. The literal translation would be stickbread and as the name says you take the risen dough and wrap it around a stick, which you hold over the flames (or even better only the ember) until its done. It's actually not that easy to get a evenly cooked piece, but everyone can make their own and it's a nice midnight activity and snack :) And for health concerns because of the sticks: We take of the bark where the dough goes and also hold it in the flames for a bit to clean it.

[@shauxuhrwilsongrim]

We have a similar thing but a bun :D it's called tikkupulla (stickbun). Just a simple bun recipe wrapped around a stick.

@@letsdoodlesomethinghome3404 As Aisha_Luv! said, it sounds like this is an issue with your oven/environment. I live in an apartment and our oven is incredibly, uh, overzealous? We have to take everything (I mean EVERYTHING) down 25-50 degrees and usually it's still done before whatever the printed time was. I would try dropping your oven temp and setting the timer for ~75% of the stated baking time and then add time as necessary. I'm betting the temp is your issue based on what you're describing and my own (seemingly nuclear) oven...

Love watching your videos. Those ant things were creepy though, lol. In the UK sausages are BANGERS, and barbecue is BBQ *Bangers was a wartime rationing name because they had to add fillers to bulk up the meat, and they would break out of the casings with a bang whilst cooking. The name stuck! I've never heard of SNAGGER before 😁

I’m with Dave on the first one. That garlic chopper might not be practical, but it does look FUN! I don’t think I’d use the damper bag though. Not down for crashing my truck on the way to a damper convention and fighting with a kangaroo before I melt my silicone bag of bread and lose my steak to a bird lol Also thank you Dave for the captions! I use subtitles all the time to help me pick up on words I miss because I didn’t hear it right or it was just too noisy in the room. Very much appreciate youtubers who write their own captions.

Ahaha, the raven stealing the steak. Those birds are too clever for their own good, but they also don't waste time getting into fights, so smaller birds often see them off. I loved the swirly garnishes and the ant party picks! There's a thriving entomologist community on Twitter - I ended up in contact with them because I've done some art with bees and spiders and other insects and entomologists are always *desperate* for more insect themed things. Reckon the adult entomologists would love having an insect themed party with those worker ants

[@dominiquehebert4903]

Those were so cute. Since it looks like the ants are carrying the food around you could totally have a line of them down a table and an anthill/ant nest cake at the end

[@CowWithACape]

As an adult entomologist/plant scientist, I can confirm!

[@nienke7713]

I honestly think that might be one of the few good uses for them, as I imagine your average non-entomologist won't get particularly excited about an ant/bug themed party, and with kids they might bee too much of a choking hazard.

[@luminoustarisma]

As soon as that raven appeared I knew it was after the meat. Same happened to my dad once when he was grilling meat, and a seagull swooped down and stole one of our cuts from the hot grill... birds do that if they are brave enough, and the human has stepped away.

Silicone is heat safe up to 220 C/428 F. Wood, on the other hand, burns between 300-600 C; and charcoal can reach over 1000 degrees (hot enough to melt aluminum foil, if touched directly)! Also keep in mind that many silicone-type products include plastic fillers that can reduce their heat tolerance and make them less suitable for food/cooking. Make sure you use products as directed 😊

[@DariusBaktash]

A lot of folks forget this in backcountry cooking, as well as misunderstanding heat tolerance of other materials. Non-stick pans can't be used over open flame fires for the same reason, and even titanium can warp a bit over hotter fire. Aluminum can be used for wrapping, but doesn't stay structurally sound at campfire temps. The best materials to date are still classic stainless steel, although titanium for some applications is fine.
