‘Vegan Christmas’ FAIL?! | Pass It On S3 E5

[@Nevrem]

They need to do a pass it on where every person is told a different theme, but they all think they're doing the same one. The chaos would be amazing

[@triciakendell3346]

This is a stellar idea!

[@rayden54]

It'd be interesting, but it really just means whoever goes last has to try to make everything fit their theme.

[@SeraphimCramer]

Just to give them some chance of passing, the themes would have to all be at least somewhat similar. If one person's told the theme is date night dinner, & the next is told that it's carnival food, they're basically gonna' end up each scrapping everything the previous person did. Done right, it could be a good idea, though.

[@leonhardeuler675]

An April fool's pass it on. I recommended it a while back.

[@alisaishere]

I've given variations of this idea so many times. Like each person given a different country to influence their dish. Or each person is given a secret ingredient (that's not a typical basic item they use often) that needs to be incorporated well enough that it makes it to the table. I also have the idea of each person is given information to steer the dish, like a note pulled from a hat, but there's zero communication allowed aside from hints. For example, the first person could be told Christmas dinner, the next person is told it has to be gluten free, the next person finds out it should be French, and the final person is told that it needs to fit into a small container for somebody who works on Christmas day to bring as their meal.

Lol. I love that every normal came in and finished half a dish in ten minutes and then Ben swoops in and makes two completely new dishes and finishes off everyone else's in the same amount of time. Well done!

[@NekoBazu]

I think this really sums up the difference between "normals" and chef - I know the community agrees that the guys aren't reeeeeally normals any more, given how long they've been doing it and everything they've learned and are very clearly capable of, but at the same time there is still that very definite gulf when it really comes to it. They're more like "Normal 2.0"

[@rebel4466]

A lot of being a chef is knowledge. He knows what works together, he knows how long things take and probably has plenty ideas what fits into the Christmas theme. Also he's able to chop while thinking. Ben is also one of those people who live their job. Always interested in learning and improving. That's far ahead from the normals, who already have more knowledge than a normal person

[@Al-zp2tx]

Ben is FUCKING amazing!!! The way he whizzes around the kitchen doing 10 things at once never ceases to amaze me. Anyone else would freak out at 2 mins, but his vibe is "oh yeah, loads of time" 🤣 HATS OFF 👏👏👏

New favorite thing: Barry accidentally stumbling into massive controversies. Is honey vegan, he asks, with such an innocent look on his face, thinking that there's a yes-or-no answer, completely unaware of the heated arguments over that very question.

[@kinagrill]

That's why Veganism is stupid. what counts is if it's an ethically sourced food item or not. I mean, it's shown that plants have an actual response to what we as human beings could see as an analogue to pain response. But because 99.99% of people dun see plants the same way they do a cow, sheep, animal-provided produce like milk and eggs, etc. Then that's just a totally ignored thing.

@@adde9506 Vegan rules aren’t really crazy. Sugar in the U.K. doesn’t use bone char so can be pretty much guaranteed to be safe (Americans on the other hand). Wine is because they use non vegan filtration, but a large number of wines are already vegan (think all of co-ops own brand, most of Tescos own brand etc). No idea where you’ve got apples from? Unless they use beeswax or shellac for shine? Veggie burgers, well yeah if they’re for vegetarians they might include egg or milk etc which aren’t suitable but most veggie burgers are moving to vegan to be more accessible to all.

To be fair, honey is one of those things where some people consider it to be vegan, and some don’t 😅

[@tamcon72]

Honey is an animal product, so, no, it isn't vegan. Vegan means nothing of animal origin.

[@samtremblaybelzile]

I was going to say it's a big debate in the vegan community. On the one hand it's made by animals, but on the other it involves no killing, no captivity, and no major change in what bees would do in the wild, so there's no harm to animals.

[@ebo2049]

for me the main reason i wouldn’t consider it vegan is because of the negative impacts that honey bee farming causes to other native pollinators (mainly due to competition) but if someone is vegan apart from honey i don’t think it suddenly makes them not a vegan if that makes sense lol

Thing about bees, which separates them from other livestock, if the hive feels the beekeeper isn't doing a good enough job looking after them they'll just fly away and find somewhere else to make their hive. It's like a very basic contract between the beekeeper and the colony, where the colony gets protection in exchange for some honey. No other livestock can do that; mammals and fish are penned in, and birds raised for meat have their flight feathers clipped (if they haven't already been selectively bred over centuries to neuter their flight entirely)

Whether or not honey is vegan is a rather contested subject. Some vegans consider it vegan, some don't.

[@TheTorbjoern]

I guess it depends on what your view of veganism is. If you see it as a way to stand against harmful things done to animals, well, bees aren't harmed at all in the production of honey, and in fact enjoy a lot of safety and medical help through the production of it. And beekeeping helps pollination. But if you see veganism as "no animal products at all allowed" then yeah, it's obviously not vegan.

[@a.r.1611]

It's a product produced by animals, so by any sane measurement it cannot be considered vegan.

Hahahahaha the Intro was FANTASTIC and of course the "fake" version being that the theme is vegan is completely on-brand for you lot 😄 😆 🤣

[@rif9576]

The level of scoring from Baz and Jamie is astounding 😂

[@Pichu0123]

Ben has the best puns😂😂😂 poor Barry, he meant well😂

[@SortedFood]

Thank you! He really did..... also it seems like the Vegan community are totally divided over honey being vegan or not.

[@Alzeiden]

@@SortedFood After this many years of him doing the same things again and again, he is doing it on purpose. you cant do it over years and still claim ignorance

[@b_uppy]

@@Alzeiden False. It can stem from other things, like 'fibro fog.' That's not presuming Barry has that med condition, or any med condtion. Health and well being can affect thinking or recall, etc.

@@b_uppy or just a basic "I need to think fast" going wrong, it happens all the time! Like accidentally using salt instead of sugar (thinking of the cinnamon salt)

[@b_uppy]

@@mirouyo9785 That can be true as well.

i love ben being last. the amount of work he did in those few minutes was ridiculous

[@MsSneaky0815]

Mike's been comparatively calm and collected, and had started them off in a good direction. 👏👏👏

[@Missmethinksalot1]

1:57 the artist nailed Mike's eye expressions

[@AJSZodiac]

Also can we have a reaction video to this. I NEED to see how the guys reaction to Jamie's inferno and Barry's honey incident.

[@janalock6267]

Mike is my spirit animal. 'I have no friends, nevermind vegan ones.'

[@chanandler_bong]

Jamie’s squeal is all of us the last few years.
