That it’s currently individually boxed leads me to think that they are not yet rugged enough for general purpose, but they could just be promotional items that the boys had gotten, so starting with oil is a good idea. I think the most viable option for present use might be meal kits. Those ones that deliver portioned ingredients for cook at home.

Can't see restaurants or airlines using the oil packets. Buy oil in bulk with washable bottles at restaurants. And how are you cutting the oil pouches in the air with no sharp objects allowed, if they didn't already explode from the pressure change at altitude.

Seaweed pipette/container is genius! Would absolutely welcome these for oil/sauce in cup noodles and the like instead of those annoying sachets! Great for a set of different oils for home use as well, but maybe not the olive oil you use a lot of. The cases you mention are great. And salad bars in supermarkets as well.

[@Gauron.]

The problem is always their ability to resist the outside world and whats inside them and how much of "true plastic" they are. Being non-plastic doesnt mean universal biodegradibility, some need chemical compostations others need industrial heated compostation process and worst is if they somehow end up among regular plastics they seriously degrade the ability to recycle those.

[@jpbaley2016]

For the olive oil, When you mention airline catering, being compostable is not a plus or minus since it going into a plastic bag into the landfill. At a restaurant it’s more hygienic as you don’t know how well anyone washed their hands, who have handled the cruets before you. Unfortunately, it can’t be used for vinegars as the seaweed ampule wouldn’t survive the acid.

The edible plate/spoon idea is interesting, just wish they weren't wheat based.

Plates protect your food from whatever you set it on. I don’t think I’d wanna eat it after I set it on a table in certain instances.

[@SortedFood]

True - although in a street food setting where you're given the food and stand to eat it. Might have a place there. Still... more about it being compostable than edible.

[@JohannLudwigEdel]

@SortedFood edible plates etc are just a marketing gag at best and overall they are nothing but wasted resources. We had this stuff already in the 90s and presumably way earlier since it's not complicated to produce. But there are plenty of reasons why it never cought on. 1 price, its at least double of cartonage 2 no one wants to eat something that came in contact with the table no matter how clean the table is 3 it's pig food is an often heard argument when absolutely no one would feed this to their livestock because of contamination risks. 4 and if it ends up in the composter then cartonage will do just as fine if not better. Seriously this is just re inventing the wheel as a triangle. Food trucks have been serving their stuff in breads and even ceramic bowls for ages. So stick with the old tech engineer saying, never touch a running system.

[@Bee0613]

@@JohannLudwigEdel 4. not great for people with food allergies, in this instance gluten.

[@redholm]

Yea. Was thinking the same. Even for Street Food. Plates help as a "shield" for hygiene. The plates could still be a good choice for being compostable. But thinking of eating all those germs from either the street vendor(Since most use tools to deal with the food itself) to your own hands as you have been out walking a bit.

JohannLudwigEdel Mt Everest, outdoor activities in general. Just a word specifying Mt. Everest...that place is loaded with paper wrappers plates, paper napkins. Very little metal compared to paper residue is left and not cleared. [i am made aware through news and documentaries... as i have never been there]... places such as Alaska, Grand Canyon, and other somewhat remote places could benefit from disposable. If you've got $$$ to hike everest you've got money to switch from paper plates 🍽 to disposable.

The olive oil pipette could be a great thing if you take your lunch to work or for a picnic. Would be better if they had them for vinegars too.

I'm curious about where the "shining tiger in the forest" translation came from. According to the Sukhee Haesoo website, "Suk means 'fast', Hee means 'corporation', Hae means 'relieve', Soo means 'water'" and "SUKHEE HAESOO is a name created by combining the above Chinese characters and means 'water that quickly dissolves alcohol and food'".

[@Andy175a]

I love the idea of the olive oil container that it is biodegradable, if it is priced in a way to compete with and replace things like carry out food containers and to go cups it sounds amazing.

I really love how Sorted is educating me and others presumable about seaweed and alternatives to paper and plastic. Innovation is a remarkable thing.

[@serenetiv]

I just talked with my dad about eatable plates and bowles, because we were on a christmas market and had some mushrooms with garlic sauce but in a paper bowl. Those bowles were the more expensive ones that don't get soggy and disintegrate easily and I was kinda glad about it. We have eatable bowles here in Germany. They're a type of hot water waffle that's supposed to hold up but they always get wobbly and sometimes even develop holes if you take too long to eat. So if the plates here hold up, I'm fine with it.

[@ChilledRedPanda]

I get the need for biodegradable plates and utensils, but making them out of wheat bran and excess flour means that anyone with a gluten allergy, or an allergy to any of the random flours that go into the spoons can't use them. If this type of thing it going to become more popular it would need to be usable by everyone and not cause allergic reactions in millions of people.

Those edible plates!! I love this idea! Spot on with the idea of those being a street food solution. American here, and the one thing I always see is whenever there’s a food truck or a street fair with multiple vendors, the trash receptacles absolutely cannot keep up with the amount of trash produced. Food festivals, night markets, etc can all benefit from a concept as simple as those edible plates and flatware. It wouldn’t eliminate all trash, but I can definitely see it making a significant impact.

Man, I'd LOVE for the canned cocktail companies - whether they're like this as mixes or plain open-and-drink - to make more NA drinks. I don't drink much and rarely want "drinks" but something like this that's fancy feeling but without alcohol would be AMAZING. Regardless, this looks awesome, as someone who can't hold or use a full size shaker AND only occasionally wants a cocktail. Shelf stable means I don't have to worry about them going off (as quickly) before I drink them, and they're small enough for me to manage on my own.

I like them because I haven’t tried many cocktails and would like to. I don’t want to spend a lot of money buying all the ingredients and I’m not a bar person. I think they would be a neat gift for someone who just reached drinking age or wants to experiment.

[@lifewithtash978]

I don't know about that. I think it would be nice to have on hand if you enjoy a cocktail but potentially don't have the space for lots of liquor bottles. Plus the fact that they don't have to be stored in the fridge like most cocktails in a can are a selling point for me.

[@RobBulmahn]

Also, why not just keep the can in the fridge? Seems so much easier and straightforward than having to have the can AND some ice AND the shaker lid, when you could just start with a cold can.

[@ChilledRedPanda]

A camping trip, where you don’t want to be bringing a whole variety of bottles and ingredients or simply for people who want to try a cocktail without forking out for everything to make it.

[@victorcalvert9543]

1/3 of the can is (fancy) air. That takes money to ship, costs the bottler more, etc., and for what? A fancy experience that is probably better _with_ a cocktail shaker (at maybe 4x the price for a good one?): no plastic parts to break, and if you *do* want to take it somewhere, the space savings begins with the third drink. There are 8oz soda cans anyway, just use those for packaging, and maybe market a high-quality branded cocktail shaker.

[@LaniTayvl]

I love the idea of the plates and spoons, BUT for those with food allergies and Celiac, they are not safe. Which puts us in a more awkward position than we already are, considering a LOT of places are already not safe for us to get a meal on the go...

[@tsnap4]

A quick note on the Shaka Can: I don't know where you're getting that 4.25 quid (~ $5.41 for us across the pond) is a good price for canned cocktails. You may see that price where you live, but most canned cocktails around here are about half that (at or just above $2.50 or ~2 quid). I'd confirm whether that price is accurate or if you're paying extra for the novelty (and the inert gasses, since it's missing water).

[@araunah-jovitagerber2739]

So lucky! Across across across the pond in down under - our cheapest cocktail cans are about $7.50-$10 per can. (3.7 pound - 5 pound)

[@Asgath]

London prices for premium products, I'd guess.

[@avarcl3625]

So I think the difference is alcohol in the UK is taxed aggressively and is hit in two ways, you have your standard sales tax at 20% in the form of VAT which is determined based on the price of the product but you also have alcohol duty which is dependent on the type of drink and the alcohol content within so impacts all products equally ( in Scotland you then have the addition on minimum alcohol pricing but doesn't impact sorted as they are London based) for example the grape fruit cocktail is a spirit based drink at an abv of 20% and a volume of 110 ML the current duty on this is £28.50 per liter of pure alcohol that means. 0.11x0. 2x 28.50 = 0.63 (rounded up) in duty and then 20% Vat. To be sold at £2 the product would need to be priced at £1.6 removing the duty that means the company would need to be making a profit off of the remaining 0.97 . Is that possible and do places sell things like that yes, do the taste good and be considered a premium product which is what the sorted guys were comparing it against no. I tried to look at the USA equivalent (I assumed US apologise if you are Canadian) to see how taxation compared and knew I was going to have difficulty with state and federal differences going in but damn they really make it hard to find out how much tax you owe so gave up apologise if taxation broadly lines up in per gallon and sales tax in whatever area you are based. 😅 For premium canned cocktails though they are fair with the £4.25 and I would put that style could go up to £7 especially when they are marketed to those that are likley willing to pay £12-18 for a cocktail in a bar.

[@nicolad8822]

Plenty of cheaper ones in the UK, maybe depends on the actual alcohol content and the quality. For example Tesco has a mojito by Served, a supposed premium brand under Ellie Goulding the singer’s name. 250ml can, 8% £2.75. With their loyalty card you can get 4 for the price of 3.

[@jarzz3601]

my one concern with the shakacan would be the inefficiency that seems like a lot of empty room which means more metal, which let's be honest a lot of won't be recycled even if it should be, and decreased transportation efficiency cause they are using more space per mill of liquid some of that will theoretically be offset by the inert gas helping to increase shelf life but we are still shipping empty shape for the convivence of not buying a shaker which aren't that expensive and if you want to bodge it you can get a protein shaker for the same price as the shakkacan shaker

Edible plates can totally kick off, I mean we already sort of do that with ice cream cones/bowls. If it's not just novelty but also adds to the eating experience (like the added sweetness of the sugar cone, or the texture of the crunch complementing the softness of the ice cream), customers will be willing to pay a little more and therefore businesses will be incentivized to offer them as an option.

I need a Baz in my life.... I laugh just because he's laughing... even if I didn't hear the cause of his mirth. You guys are great! Keep up the excellent work!

[@pelagia1538]

So much more enjoyable without an audience. Feels more genuine and not played up. Different camera angle is a great idea too

[@zerin25]

Oof, the plate and spoon one is tough for me. I love that we're seeing better alternatives to single use plastic, but I don't love that I'm starting to see some of these alternatives being rolled out with no allergen warnings.

[@drinkbooks]

If nothing else, watching Barry just lose himself to the giggles made my night. Ben just watched them eat the plate for a little longer than necessary before telling them that it was, in fact, edible. 🤣

You guys should make a video of just cast iron gadgets. There's a bunch out there. You may need to give a few extra coats of seasoning to the pre seasoned stuff. That's why the food stuck on the cast iron skillet you guys looked at before. Here's just a few possible items you could cover: - Wonderffle cast iron stuffed waffle maker. - Lodge Pro Sportsman Grill. - Barebones All in One Skillet - Stargazer (modern, ergonomic cast iron cookware) - Presses, meat grinders, ice shavers and more.

Ill just put out there that a casual cocktail drinker can just get a regular shaker for 5 bucks without the need to buy half empty cans for 5 pounds to fit it.

[@ProjectGeekPL]

Note to production: maybe an episode with only alcohol related trends? XD that would be funny 🤣

[@itsmikehayden]

"Let's leave room for ice!" 'Shall we make the can larger to compensate?' "Feck no, give them less of what they're paying for!"

[@finian2]

Normally canned cocktails like that are sold in those smaller 250ml cans (kinda like red bull) and come pre-diluted. So it's pretty much the same amount of product after it's prepared.

I think the unpredictability of allergens with various different flours making up the edible spoons would be a no-go for me. Chickpea flour is definitely working its way into the mainstream, sometimes insidiously when it is not an advertised ingredient replacing things that are not normally containing it.

[@SummitCoyote]

edible plates for street food would be awesome especially if they get sorts flavored with whatever is on it. then you don't gotta worry about finding a trash can or cleaning it out of your car etc. especially smaller bowls and such of food. that would be awesome. it's like a bread bowl but more sturdy.

[@KungKokkos]

The olivoil things clearly say "Nip. Twist. Pour.", doesn't mention snipping it with a pair of scissors :p

[@2001benraze]

Terrific episode and the final product was so much fun! Thanks Sorted Team!

[@audreylongstaff5575]

The olive oil pipettes would be great for picnics/out doors events 💚

[@MooYum]

Love all the ideas here but wondering in particular about the plates/spoons - would they be safe for someone with celiac to eat from (definitely not to eat...) or do they leech grain content into the food they hold?

[@idontknow4350]

Venn Diagram has common part Ben. It's used precisely to show that it's possible to have two/three properties at the same time, not the opposite

[@TheSeatedView]

The edible plates and cutlery are amazing. As an option. I have friends who have legume allergies and that plate could trigger a reaction. I think anyone using them should display a sign with the possible contents to keep their customers safe. Of course, I dream of all restaurants and streetfood vendors doing this (I have food allergies myself), but have hope for the future.

[@markcorderoy632]

Oodles and oodles, of joy... I love watching these episode's, ( i especially like Barry, and Jamie ) these guy's are 'Hilarious' with a capital 'H' !😂

[@morganalori]

Thank you for this joyous video. So much giggling to be had as the drinks hit and then they started eating the cutlery. Ben not a peep out of you you were laughing so quietly when they were figuring out the plate/spoon. That was funny. maybe start with a food, then drink, then more food, then second drink. This one was fun, and totally silly

[@Erdnussbuttertoast]

guys, edible plates have been around for a while! I can't count how many times I've eaten food off of edible plates/bowls at Christmas markets over the last decade

[@MelissiaBlackheart]

The edible spoon and plate are the only one that interested me. My mother often uses paper plates because she is tired a lot due to medical treatment, and this would be a much better solution than that, as far as sustainability goes.

[@lauriepenner350]

Single use plastics were banned in my city a few years back, so it's great to see more alternatives to wooden utensils, which are what most places use now.

[@estherreeves6445]

I love the idea behind the edable spoons and plates because we need more uses for waste but in this country street food is very much bread based as it is if the plate and cutlery also has gluten in there will be nothing I can eat safely as a celiac.

[@runawayfaeIX]

I considered that, as well.

[@MajorMel]

I hadn't thought of it but that is a very good point!

[@ForestsGuardian]

I'm wondering if the plates and spoons are safe for those who have Crohn's or Celiac issues

[@stewartlee8858]

He was going to throw a bottle, he was gonna chucka can, chucka can. Stutter rap lol.

[@Friend2FriendnMA]

GREAT video!!! The products tested and reviewed…A+++++ And Mike's Guinea pig hutch comment slayed! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@je9172]

😂😂 Ah guys.... That olive oil thing on a plane would be carnage!!! It's too full and would either pop or squirt vigorously on snippage!!! 😂😂😂😂
