How To Acquire The Munchies In Just 25 Minutes

[@justrosy5]

Not if you understood what it is you're putting in your mouth, and I don't mean the actual food ingredients. See my comment on the OP to understand what I'm getting at here. Summary: cancer causing chemicals, heart attack causing saturated fats, drain cleaner, and products procured using child slavery.

[@NexusKirin]

Agreed, I’m itching for sour cream and onion chips.

[@justrosy5]

Marie Antoinette is not anymore believed to have said, "Let them eat cake." That's an old historical misnomer based off of an empty assumption that earlier historians had made about a letter that was written by a merchant who had referred to someone "of noble birth" saying that. Anyway, that one's been debunked. No one actually knows who it was who said that, but it's not likely to have been Marie Antoinette. She would still have been a child at the time, and was blessedly unaware of what was going on outside her new home (after having been married at the age of 15 to the King of France, a much older man, King Louis XVI).

[@kaiajackson8538]

A lot of people know she didn't actually say that, it's just associated with her because people once thought she said it. Also king Louis was a child as well when he married her, get your facts straight. not every marriage back then was with a "much older man", in fact I think he was only like 2 years older than her. A quick Google search would have shown that🙄. Your just spreading misinformation.

[@MickyFarm]

If Marie Antoinette didn't say 'Let them eat cake,' then who really did?

[@marsbar999]

​@@MickyFarm probably nobody I think, the people just really, REALLY hated her at the time and honestly would've done anything to talk shit about her. I mean, just look at all the rumors about her that still persist to this day. They said all sorts of horrible things about her and mocked her for *everything* she did. It wouldn't surprise me if folks literally just made that up to make her sound ignorant, or misconstrued something she *really* said very poorly. Sort of purposefully misunderstanding her words, I suppose. There's a lot of really interesting videos about Marie, especially later in her life regarding her children. I honestly suggest you watch at least one because it's genuinely fascinating just how much they hated this girl, *wild* stuff.

[@nikkiewhite476]

I once worked in a restaurant that got similar frozen cookie pucks. We would smash 2 together to get large sized cookies. We also got buckets of muffin dough. We would just scoop out the dough with an icecream scoop. "Fresh baked" cookies and muffins... They came frozen, we would bake them, refreeze the products and finally thaw them as they sold. For all that the cookies and muffins were delicious... Even if "fresh"

[@Raevynwing]

I did the same, working at a homeless shelter. Buckets of carrot muffin dough and boxes of plain and oatmeal muffin base. Just add water and eggs..lol

[@Fearlessdove]

[@shadowfox3rd]

sometimes they mention "Trade Secrets". thats when..

[@justrosy5]

And then there's the PFAS... See my comment on the OP!

[@justjunkmale]

These are Canadian products. They use more cane sugar and vegetable oils where as the US tends to use corn syrup and other highly processed ingredients.

[@Shedrack-tt9rv]

Good question. When is the "redflag" stuff added. Or rather the "skull and bones" stuff. And I'm not trying to be funny, everyone should be aware that those additives you listed are very harmful to us.

This was the best ad that cookie company could have ever bought. Most factory made cookies are pretty gross, but the ingredients and process in this video look perfect. The manufacturer is still in business (they're the supplier for Doubletree!) and you can still buy those tins they were packing. They cost $42 though! Oof.

[@RobertoMoralesO]

How it’s made food series are the best 🤟🏻

[@thuyninhle7888]

What a fascinating video! I really love how detailed the process is explained. however, I can't help but wonder if the preservatives used in these snacks are really worth it. I mean, they taste great, but shouldn't we be more cautious about what we’re actually consuming? just a thought!

[@karensuemiller4917]

Those pretzels are delicious

[@MyDarkWorldX]

great video! really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at how these snacks are made. but honestly, i think potato chips have way more potential flavor-wise than pretzels. it's like chips can go sweet or savory, while pretzels are kinda stuck in their salty zone. what do u think?

[@Graceology101]

I Love how it's made !!!!

[@hangbui4245]

what a fascinating look into the production process! i really enjoyed how detailed the video was. but honestly, isn’t it kind of surprising how much sugar and salt are used in these snacks? sometimes i wonder if the process sacrifices health for flavor.

[@truclydothi732]

[@rhonda1891]

Wow this is so interesting thanks for sharing

[@ericferrell3775]

Why are we adding corn syrup to a savory snack like pretzels?

[@bdbear10]

Soft pretzels do have a slight sweetness to them, maybe that's why.

[@mynameisworld]

For texture.

[@Toad-In-A-Puddle]

A little sugar in dough gives the yeast something to "eat" so it can activate and grow.

[@histoiresdevoir]

great video! really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at how snacks are made. but honestly, i have to say that the health implications of these snacks aren’t really touched on. i know they’re delicious, but it's kinda concerning how much processed food we consume without thinking twice. just my two cents!

[@Marie-ur3qh]

[@douro20]

This style of pretzel twisting machine was originally developed by AMF. I wonder if any of those original machines still exist?
