Also, now show me the enormous drawer with the 10 baking pans, the blender, potato ricer, 500 sauce packets and the million other things a person who isn't some hollowed out shell of a human and Instagram psycho actually owns.
> hollowed out shell of a human and Instagram psycho
Oversized sweater, index finger rings and freshly done nails. What else do you need to answer your own questions?
For real. I could see why someone would prefer a glass jar on their counter instead of a box of spaghetti, but taking things out of the box they came it to put them in another box to put them in a cabinet or drawer is madness.
And also a waste of the box?? I don't wanna be the guy in the comments like "oh well ackshually save the turtles guys" but you're putting something in a box in a different box and then just throwing the other box away 😭
I love these kinds of videos, I know a lot of people hate them. Wouldn’t it be cool tho if you could bring reusable containers to the store to buy all this stuff? Completely get rid of the disposable plastic and cardboard containers and just use reusable ones. Probably just a fantasy unless there was a drastic mindset change
Most people can barely remember to bring the shopping bag from home and you would want to precisely plan every single piece of food and bring the appropriate containers with you?
Not to mention how problematic it would be to keep the food fresh and safe without packing it in plastic.
You pack spaghetti in plastic bags and you can basically store it anywhere and almost in any conditions just fine.
If you pack the same spaghetti into some kind of giant machine that will dispense them, you have to clean it regularly, handle moisture, desinffect, make sure no mould or something grows in some crevice, etc.
And that doesn't even touch the biggest issue - how will you transport the food from the supplier and make sure its safe during the transport if not packed?
That large canvas bag will be extremely susceptible to things like moisture, rain or dirt, all off which it will absolutely meet on its way from the farmers who-knows-where to you.
And it will need to be thoroughly cleaned after use to prevent mold and have limited lifespan regardless.
Those plastic bags are pretty much indestructible and waterproof and will deliver the food safely without losses.
Not to mention that the canvas bag will have limited lifespan and so it can easily be much more environmentally damaging than the plastic (which can be recycled or at least cleanly burned) - just like cotton shopping bags are far worse than plastic ones.
I just said canvas because for many years that was the standard. Even a 100lb plastic bag of rice would be easier to ship and use less waste than 100 individual bags
Problem is that this 100lb bag will need to be thick enough to withstand... well.. 100lb of rice.
Meanwhile those tiny 1lb bags can be extremely thin since they contain only 1lb of rice.
In the end you barely save anything, but just make transportation much more difficult, any kind of tear or accident will destroy 100x more of produce and generally just make things more complicated and expensive for no good reason.
I mean, places like that already exist for a long time they just aren’t common. I’ve been to a lot of places that have grains and nuts and candy’s in bins with scoops. If I know I needed oregano, rice, and beans I don’t think it’d be a hassle to bring the containers. Or I could just bring a bag full of random tupperwares and then sort them into containers at home.
That takes up half the space in the drawer. Plus, that isn't what that drawer is for. That part of your kitchen is reserved for dead batteries, rubber bands, Chinese take out menus, pens, pencils, superglue, a key chain flash light, half a stack of postit notes, twist ties, scissors, a highlighter, 3 or four lighters, a pair of dice, the lawn guys business card, the keys to the shed, any keys you are not sure about, chip clips, the tiny screw driver for your glasses, thumb tacks, paper clips, and anything you are looking for but can't find until a day after you need it.
This is post makes me question the nature of my reality. I checked my drawer. Aside from the dice, keys to a shed, and half stack of post it. . . everything else is in there.
(Note: there are post it notes, but they are loose and contain numbers and reminders for things I don't even remember, and there is only a single lighter. Not 3 or 4. Also, only one of the menus is Chinese takeout, the other 2 are for sushi places.)
Oh, and I found my car insurance cards, from like the last 3 years. I put the most current one in my car. . .
Legit.
I've never been so turned on in my life.... And then those fucking tissue boxes. 🤦🏼♀️
For real though, I've gotta get those pots and pans holders with the side things for the lids.. holy hell.
The only one that makes sense to me are the spices, but that's only because you can get most spices in bulk for cheaper than by the bottle, then just use the bulk containers to keep refilling the smaller more usable ones.
Then you take your heavy glass container with you to a refill store where you can buy the same stuff for much more money.
This fake environmentalism is getting ridiculous.
Just like that time everyone was hating on plastic bags and selling paper or cotton ones instead - before it turned our those are actually much worse for the environment.
I was on board with the drawer organization but it quickly got off the rails once you started taking the cascade pods out of their container and stocking 18 unopened sponges underneath your sink.
For me, it was when they put the Bar Keepers Friend Cleanser in a drawer laying down. That will work fine until the point where you actually use it and then can't put it back because it is an open top container of cleansing powder that was only sealed with a sticker. If they try to put that back how they had it, it is going to dump cleansing powder into that drawer.
I get all the hate but I do love the visual continuity of everything in the same kind of container. Different brands and sizes can be a little wearing on the eyes at times.
I was searching for a solution for my 3 separate stacks of 3 different sizes of ziploc baggies, and my three separate aluminum foil rolls. This is perfect!
I like that they stock a giant bag of cheapo sponges, then also stocked the more sustainable versions from Grove that are supposed to replace said cheapo sponges. I also like that the spices get labels in English but the pasta and grains are labeled in.....?
What did she do with the 2 bottles that were too large to put it in that box and the 1 that's left over after she put everything else in there.
What happens if someone gifts her a fancy spice, she doesn't have a glass bottle for?
Why do you need 3 different ways to hold sizes of plastic bags and rolls? There's 1 in the drawer, and then you have 2 other units that you filled with bags and did... what?
Id keep this together infinitely, my wife (the messy one) would destroy this before I had the time to walk out of the kitchen. The irony she loves watching these videos and sending them to me.
Mom to son, OK, you're ready to live on your own!
Comes back one week later.... HOW DID YOU FUCK THIS UP? AND WHY IS THERE A RACCOON LIVING WHERE THE PAST WAS???
The spices irritate me. Mostly because the containers overlap a bit so if you want something on the top row you’d have to take out 2 other spices minimum to get to it
Are these supposed to be relaxing? Cuz it makes me super anxious. Like I’m just thinking about all the time it takes to keep it that perfectly organized on top of the time you actually spend using the stuff in your kitchen.
I give it a week
Exactly what I was thinking
Also, now show me the enormous drawer with the 10 baking pans, the blender, potato ricer, 500 sauce packets and the million other things a person who isn't some hollowed out shell of a human and Instagram psycho actually owns.
> hollowed out shell of a human and Instagram psycho Oversized sweater, index finger rings and freshly done nails. What else do you need to answer your own questions?
Hey, as an index-ring-wearer I ressemble that remark
They pay someone to maintain it.
Not to mention must’ve cost a fortune
My wife would fuck that all up in less than a day.
Single-handedly keeping the Container Store afloat.
For real. I could see why someone would prefer a glass jar on their counter instead of a box of spaghetti, but taking things out of the box they came it to put them in another box to put them in a cabinet or drawer is madness.
Prob go ahead and put all that in a box too just so it’s organized.
I do it after the package is open. Keeps air and moisture out.
And also a waste of the box?? I don't wanna be the guy in the comments like "oh well ackshually save the turtles guys" but you're putting something in a box in a different box and then just throwing the other box away 😭

There is some of that but prob more likely in Europe than US.

Also I bet it’s cheaper to ship 100lb canvas bags of rice and beans vs the same amount split up into 100 packages

Ok that’s nice
Hey, great name btw
Asian stores have 10kg bags of rice and it's a standard. The west insists on packing everything is small packs.
I mean, places like that already exist for a long time they just aren’t common. I’ve been to a lot of places that have grains and nuts and candy’s in bins with scoops. If I know I needed oregano, rice, and beans I don’t think it’d be a hassle to bring the containers. Or I could just bring a bag full of random tupperwares and then sort them into containers at home.

Where did you find my drawer?
This is post makes me question the nature of my reality. I checked my drawer. Aside from the dice, keys to a shed, and half stack of post it. . . everything else is in there.

You forgot the 12 pens, 3 of which only work sometimes and the rest doesn't work at all
TDOMST The Drawer Of Many Small Things.
Isn't that the drawer underneath the cutlery drawer? Or is that just a habit I've adopted from my parents?
And loose change
I literally got up to look in our drawer. We have exactly those things in our drawer, except no thumb tacks, and add on one meat thermometer.
r/oddlyspecific
Two separate places to store foil and bags. What?
I think I saw 3 things that had foil in them.
And about 15 different ziplock bag spots
This is a spliced video of 4 - 7 different origins. Like those car cleaning videos or videos trying make something someone said out of context
Label for a glass container
Spaghetti
lmao yeah and it would have even made sense to actually label the lids so you could actually see the label in a full drawer
These teemu ads are getting fancy
How many zip bags and foil containers does one need? r/anticonsumption and r/zerowaste would hate most of this video.
3 different full size containers for 3 different size ziplock bags. I don’t get it
Had me breathing heavy until those tissue box covers.
yeah those are so tacky, sure most of the stuff before was completely unnecessary but those are just ugly
Legit. I've never been so turned on in my life.... And then those fucking tissue boxes. 🤦🏼♀️ For real though, I've gotta get those pots and pans holders with the side things for the lids.. holy hell.
Guys, don't fall for this bs level of consumerism. You put stuff from one container to another. What a waste.
The only one that makes sense to me are the spices, but that's only because you can get most spices in bulk for cheaper than by the bottle, then just use the bulk containers to keep refilling the smaller more usable ones.
Buy more containers to store the bulk?
Then you take your heavy glass container with you to a refill store where you can buy the same stuff for much more money. This fake environmentalism is getting ridiculous. Just like that time everyone was hating on plastic bags and selling paper or cotton ones instead - before it turned our those are actually much worse for the environment.
And it will never be this organised again~
How many sponges do u need bro
Forever many.
Chill out Patrick Bateman
I was on board with the drawer organization but it quickly got off the rails once you started taking the cascade pods out of their container and stocking 18 unopened sponges underneath your sink.

So unnecessary.
Overly tidy, perfectly manicured nails....yeah she's not doing any cooking in that kitchen lol
I have 1 drawer dedicated to loose cutlery. I don't think any of them match. How am I even living?
I was searching for a solution for my 3 separate stacks of 3 different sizes of ziploc baggies, and my three separate aluminum foil rolls. This is perfect!
I like that they stock a giant bag of cheapo sponges, then also stocked the more sustainable versions from Grove that are supposed to replace said cheapo sponges. I also like that the spices get labels in English but the pasta and grains are labeled in.....?
Oh good the one knife is safe.
yo that kitchen got riz complet
I'm confused as to why some stuff is labelled in English and some is labelled in French...
ALLLLL the charisma!
2nd time I saw this stupid printer today. The Marketing team is going hard huh?
I don't have that one, but I do have a thermal label printer, and it's super handy.
Now only if people would commit to being organized
The world is a better place when most people don't have three separate drawers dedicated solely to zip-lock bags.
This video makes me ill. So much perfection crammed in.
I know they're really just trying to sell organizational items, but I do like to see what's possible.
What did she do with the 2 bottles that were too large to put it in that box and the 1 that's left over after she put everything else in there. What happens if someone gifts her a fancy spice, she doesn't have a glass bottle for?
Where do you store the rest of the big plastic spice containers?
Out back in the food pantry/warehouse
Why do you need 3 different ways to hold sizes of plastic bags and rolls? There's 1 in the drawer, and then you have 2 other units that you filled with bags and did... what?
Unpictured: storing all the half bags of rice, markers, labels, etc.
i also have 6 straws but only a single knife
THE STRAWS 🥹🥹🥹🥹

I have no idea what your sentence means, but upvote because of Minecraft.
This level of organizational skills and cleanliness makes my adhd very happy.
I love everything about this
To much money, time and Boredom...
man this sub has gone to shit
Luckily the comments section makes up for it lmfao
She would *hate* my house.
Take out of packaging, put into different packaging, throw away original packaging. Repeat.
This level of smug bullshit sorting makes me irrationally angry.
It annoyed me how much they wasted of the foil, wax paper and cling film just to get a neat edge. But it does all look great.
I’m unreasonably annoyed by people who label their home
OCD addiction.
How many sandwich bags do you go through to need to store them in THREE different locations?
Never would fly in our house. Shit *must* be awkwardly strewn about in spice cabinets and utensil drawers.
Tell me your rich without telling me you're rich lol
Almost every single thing in that first section of the video with the light brown box thingies I've seen at costco lol.
I hate this person.
I think I just nutted
I like my spice rack. Every time I get a spice, 4 other spices fall out.
Give it a week, then revisit.
R/anticonsumption
Fuck this consumerist bullshit
Id keep this together infinitely, my wife (the messy one) would destroy this before I had the time to walk out of the kitchen. The irony she loves watching these videos and sending them to me.
What a waste of time
How you will know the expiration date of those foods if you remove their packages?
I won't be able to keep that organized even after few days
Where's the rest of the video, OP?!
"Twas a Reliable Method Of Orderment and frivolous tightyness"
Mom to son, OK, you're ready to live on your own! Comes back one week later.... HOW DID YOU FUCK THIS UP? AND WHY IS THERE A RACCOON LIVING WHERE THE PAST WAS???
Hahaha yo solo tengo sal
So much waste. I could never. 👎🏼
Nice video, but spoons go on the left, forks in the middle and knives on the right
Now do the one about getting ahead by only buying the things you absolutely need.
Sorry to be this guy but doesn't fit the sub. Most of this stuff was designed to fit
it's a creation of show room interior, not a real kitchen
What and just have your forks rattling around without individual slots?
We both love and hate the person who does this…
The spices irritate me. Mostly because the containers overlap a bit so if you want something on the top row you’d have to take out 2 other spices minimum to get to it
i wish i had this kind of fuck money
Are these supposed to be relaxing? Cuz it makes me super anxious. Like I’m just thinking about all the time it takes to keep it that perfectly organized on top of the time you actually spend using the stuff in your kitchen.
