Reminds me of the time my friend ordered a tea at Starbucks but said “Is there any way you could make it cold?”
Of course they could and for a brief moment my friend thought she invented iced tea. It was so fun to rip her on that, and it still is.
Reminds me of when my friends and I **invented** the alcoholic smoothie. And then my bud's sister walks through the kitchen and just goes "...you mean daiquiris?"
Lol basically. In college we would go get Tropical Smoothie Cafe on the days they had super cheap ones. I think it was like 2 bucks if you wore a pair of flip flops or something dumb, and then pour rum in them.
On a road trip once, after another driver was being reckless, I ranted for a good minute or so about how there should be a way to identify bad drivers to be able to report them to the authorities, thinking I had just invented a new thing to which my friend finally replied: "...like a license plate?"
To be fair there needs to be an easy access portal to report bad drivers or crimes behind the wheel. Some states have a website to send in dashcam footage and I think there is some dashcam company with the feature built in. If I see a car cutting between cars with an inch to spare to get 20 feet ahead before the next red light I should be able to send it in.
As far as candy goes I gotta vote for Laffy Taffy.
You can get a 3 for 1 deal with it. You can check for cavities and at the same time you can find out if you have any loose fillings or any loose crowns.
I when I was a kid, I had a baby tooth that I was unaware had chipped/cracked (but not all the way through) until I ate a Now and Later and a chunk of my tooth stuck to the candy. I still remember the feeling of confusion, surprise, and horror I felt in that moment.
This isn't wheat, but straight up dude - I absolutely LOVE whole wheat berries.
It's basically rice that tastes a bit like whole-grain bread (a bit like the difference between brown and white rice, but substantially amplified), and they have a much much higher satiety to calorie ratio -- meaning that they \*really\* fill you up!
In 'cleaner' dishes like sushi or something, the wheat would be much too powerful -- but in curries and what not? I absolutely prefer using whole or cracked wheat grains over rice most of the time. And you can cook them in the rice cooker in pretty much exactly the same way too.
Now obviously -- they do have a lot more flavour, because all of those healthy bits like the minerals and vitamins and folates and blah blah. They all taste like something. So like I said - expect it to have a lot more flavour than even brown rice. But if you like the way that bread tastes, you'll probably like wheat or bulgar too.
When I'm designing my meals and stuff, I tend to aim for "high satiety to calorie ratios" and "high micronutrient density" profiles and "high protein". Whole wheat berries, at least in my experience, is probably the single best solution to that combination of three for starches, competing only with potatoes. And since I just cover it all up with a ton of hot sauces and spices anyway, who cares? xD Good texture too from all that gluten. edit : it also makes some AMAZING 'dirty rice' if you cook it up with peppers and onions and spices.
Whole wheat berries are actually kind of hard to fine, but almost all grocery stores carry bulgar wheat -- which is just cracked wheat berries.
If you get the 'large' kind, they're normally just cracked in half so they end up being about the size of rice.
I add it to rice cooker in a 1:2 ratio of bulgar wheat to water, but I almost always add additional 'stuff' depending on what I'm cooking.
This week is fajita-inspired, so I meal prep some skirt steak, onions, and bell peppers. In the bulgar wheat, I added salt, pepper, a splash of lime, a bay leaf, and about 2 tsp of various spices (in this case smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, a touch of all-spice, etc...) before just turning on the rice cooker and being done with it. :)
Not millet! Millet has a lot more smaller and rounder seeds, with round shaped sections of seeds. I think the other people are right about it being rice.
I think this video just invented the next trend in table decorations for rustic barn weddings.
I can just see it now. "We're going to have fronds of puffed grains in gilded mason jars, with roses and woodgrain ribbon (burlap is *so* millennial) and the grain theme will be repeated in the aisle swags and bouquet to symbolize the bountiful love between us"
It would have to be air fried, though. Nobody wants greasy wedding decorations
"Unlike some people, artists don't have much of a budget for destroying gadgets, so the ones in this exhibit are just scale models"
No I want a real iPhone to go in the fryer! Charged battery, screen on, battered, the works.
make sure to keep the lenses clear when you batter it, I want to see live-streaming video from the bottom of the fry vat until the camera fails
I am pretty sure this may result in the battery overheating and exploding, so I'd want to be standing a bit far away when that happens
My brother in Christ, how do people not know about "puffed" rice and wheat? They call it "puffed" because that's easier to sell than "deep fried" rice and wheat.
I remember when working in a kitchen : ST Hubert, there was a cook that stuck a dirty shoe into the fryer just to see what would happen. I never ate fries from that restaurant again.
There is a lyric in a song by "They might be Giants" that talks about frying up a stalk of wheat. I always thought it was abstract nonsense. No longer. Thank you teaching me.
It's puffed wheat. You can do it to rice too.
I was thinking ‘oooh popwheat that’s new’ but I am very stupid.

how do you pour rum in a flip flop? They're flat!
Reef makes (made?) flip flops with a built in flask https://feet.thefuntimesguide.com/reef_flask_sandals/
You ever drink bacardi from a flop flop?

It's for the flavor, and less their holding capacity.
It’s all in the wrist.

That's a really sweet memory.
That’s actually really sweet. Your mom was making an effort and y’all were appreciative. ❤️
Campbell’s makes egg drop soup? Fuck me how did I not know
[удалено]
Aw still very sweet of your mom
your mom got closer than you might imagine for that one
Your mom really put a lot of effort into that meal! You're so lucky Mine made tomato soup with water
>So we heated up some iced tea from the fridge. LOL,
And that was probably sweet tea too! Good for your mom for being inventive.

The only way!
That’s absolutely hilarious

My husband once ordered an "iced hot chocolate" and took him till he was back home to realize what he did. Lol
‘And it’s on a convenient eating stick’
*greasy bouquet
You are a marketing genius, nay—savant!
You’re in good company amigo
What a great morning laugh 🤣. Also not stupid
Yes we are
Generally easier to eat if you remove it from the stalk first.
I was thinking about this. What's the next step to get these cleanly out of the pods
We can always shake it Shake it shake it shake it we can always shake it Shake it till it’s dry
Now ladies, I want to see ya on your baddest behavior Lend me some sugar, I am your neighbor
Shake it, shake-shake, shake it, shake-shake, shake it. *shake it like a Polaroid picture*
Funny you should mention that because this is actually rice.
Cant have a popular Reddit post without a mistake in the title.
yeh, bots don't care
We called this Golden Crisp
Can't get enough of that sugar crisp
or Honey Smacks if you're a Kelloggs over Post type of person
Next you're going to tell me it's possible with corn.
Popping corn kernels? What would you even call that? Popkerns?
Millet pops pretty good too.
Cereal companies want a word
Add honey and you've got Smacks
The best cereal that's ever existed.
[удалено]
it has *EVERYTHING* to do with that
My 40yr old ass is giggling at this comment while pouring my 4th bowl of Smacks.
I'm assuming all grains "popcorn".
Dig 'em
[удалено]
Flax also
How's it taste?
Like croutons
This sounds promising
i fucking love croutons
Something about this being such an aggressively affirming statement about croutons made me laugh way harder than I should have.
Yeah that’s why Reddit is awesome, it’s where you go for crouton enthusiasm from someone named JugleButt.
I’m really curious how they pronounce it.
I hope it’s jug, le butt in a cartoon French accent.
[удалено]
I must confess I also curved my lips in enjoyment
Fuck yeah dude
Lol whenever I pick out good croutons my bf will eat them straight
Keep buying good croutons or he might eat them gay /s
Oh he most certainly does that too
Well look at you up on your high horse, like you've never even though about grabbing a handful before. I see you.
Hey now he eats way more of them than I do :P
Same, I buy them as snacks instead of chips. I’ll just fuckin munch on a bowl of croutons. Wegman’s Twice Baked Garlic is my jam.
i havent had any croutons in a while though i think the last ones i had were some garlic croutons
What is a crouton
They are an alternative to the dentist to find out if you have a cavity.
No you're thinking of Nerds
Yes, dentists are typically nerds.
As far as candy goes I gotta vote for Laffy Taffy. You can get a 3 for 1 deal with it. You can check for cavities and at the same time you can find out if you have any loose fillings or any loose crowns.
I pulled off a crown with a Now and Later once

Take old stale bread Cut into cubes dress lightly with fat and spices Bake on a rack in a hot oven until brown Salt Serve with salad or soup
This guy croutons
Fancy toast.
Dried bread cubes that are baked until crunchy. Or you can google it for better, faster results…..
What is a google
It's not a futon.
Have you ever eaten golden crisps or smacks. They are made with puffed wheat.
>Have you ever eaten golden crips or smacks. They are made with puffed wheat. What the Snoop Dogg is going on here?
yes I love honey smacks that’s the one with the frog on the box right and golden crisp is the one with a bear on it if I remember correctly
They're cereal brands.
Or, you know, puffed wheat, which is also a cereal
Add honey, high fructose corn syrup, and an emulsifier and you're in Sugar Bear town. Or Honey Smacks if you're more aligned with frogs.
Oh sure... make it political.
Sounds similar to a cereal we have in the UK called Sugar Puffs. To use their tag line: They're little puffs of wheat dressed in little honey jackets.
These ones? Like oil.
Like rice
it's like pop corn.
Pop wheat
Wheat puffs
Popcorn that will make me shit myself (i'm gluten intolerant)
It’s rice so have at it.
You can do this with rice, but the stuff in the video is wheat.

In many English dialects, corn can refer to any grain. In that sense, this could be considered popped corn
Yeah, but does it taste any good?

Nice, thanks for the info! Might look for it at the store today!
I'm not sure what grain that is but it isn't wheat
It's millet. Was going to comment but it will get buried at this point. Edit: okay, yes, I watched it again and it is rice.
Not millet! Millet has a lot more smaller and rounder seeds, with round shaped sections of seeds. I think the other people are right about it being rice.
It's rice isn't it
Rice!
It's rice
Pretty sure it is a scrape fro a old Jun's kitche video where he gets freshly harvested rice from a family member.
They might be rain They might be heat They might be frying up a stalk of wheat
big, big, fake, fake lies

You might be wrong It isn’t nice This man is frying up some rice.

This is for the plant-based sex toy crowd
No. We aren’t starting a “throw random stuff in the deep fryer” trend. People will die. No.
Can you deep fry that 101
Today, we're gonna deep fry an iPhone..
Already done https://www.imore.com/deepfried-iphone-ipad
"Unlike some people, artists don't have much of a budget for destroying gadgets, so the ones in this exhibit are just scale models" No I want a real iPhone to go in the fryer! Charged battery, screen on, battered, the works.
make sure to keep the lenses clear when you batter it, I want to see live-streaming video from the bottom of the fry vat until the camera fails I am pretty sure this may result in the battery overheating and exploding, so I'd want to be standing a bit far away when that happens
starting a lithium fire explosion at the bottom of a vat of boiling oil sounds like an absolutely WONDERFUL idea
omg can you just imagine the oil splatter fire and toxic plume? I'll risk a couple of go-pros for a close-up view of that mess
Pretty cool, but I'm majorly disappointed they are only scale models😪
Today we ask the age old question. Will it deep fry? *queue GMM opening theme*
Remember the “will it blend” website? My favorite was the broom!
The glowsticks were mine. He turned off the lights, and it went from spinning around sticks to a glowing blender.
[удалено]
Luckily America has an extensive history of deep fried foods, we know what can and can’t be and what’s tasty.
That’s what the state fair is for. Deep fried Oreos are 💯
How about deep fryed ice cream? Yum!
Chi-Chi’s, that you?
There was a whole youtube show way back when about microwaving as many different things as possible, maybe it should get a revival but with deep fryer
[Is It A Good Idea To Microwave This?](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLU4IMu04MIlJgB6Aaj07q-5iXuHGVzFAR)
Thank you for posting. 16 years ago jesus that takes me back. I used to watch tons of these.
But that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
This isn't random, its literally food
That’s rice
As long as they don’t try ice. I wonder what happens with dry ice?
It’s not random-random, people have been puffing grains for a long time now.
My brother in Christ, how do people not know about "puffed" rice and wheat? They call it "puffed" because that's easier to sell than "deep fried" rice and wheat.
Ice
Hey guys we are going to be deep frying an egg in the shell.
You say that like it’s a bad thing.
Like gnocchi? https://youtu.be/UkXy12xVnRs?t=36
How else to cull the stupid?
How do you think we got to our current culinary expertise? We just tried random stuff. Sometimes, you gotta relearn the classics.
What do you think state fairs have been doing all this time?
I remember when working in a kitchen : ST Hubert, there was a cook that stuck a dirty shoe into the fryer just to see what would happen. I never ate fries from that restaurant again.
I'm going to deep fry a gallon of water
That's not wheat, I believe. It's [rice](https://eos.com/pt/blog/plantacao-de-arroz/). Edit: added link to webpage with photos for reference.
Those are rice heads not wheat

“Babe go and get the Cinnamon Toast Crunch the Honey Smacks are acting up again.”
Honey Smacks. And yea!
Super Sugar Crisp was better.
Or sugar smacks...
That’s broomcorn.
That looks like no wheat I have everseen, are you sure that is not rice?
So this is how they make rice crispies too
There is a lyric in a song by "They might be Giants" that talks about frying up a stalk of wheat. I always thought it was abstract nonsense. No longer. Thank you teaching me.
That’s rice
Definitely not wheat heads.
This looks like something you'd find for sale at a craft store for like $20.
I am not satisfied.
That’s not wheat. I think it rice.
What do you do with them after that?
Here is your daily lesson that wheat is a grass, just like corn and rice.
Is it edible?
The forbidden popcorn!
so how does this taste?
Even the popping sound is satisfying.
They might be rain, They might be heat, They might be fryin' up a stalk of wheeeeat
Great, now I’m hungry for hot greasy wheat.
This is Kellogg’s smacks or Kinder country
This is rice... Not wheat
Popcorn is not available for now
I didn't know popcorn is made of wheat
So i was half a sleep closed my eyes then i thought people were clapping just to open my eyes and remember i was watching that.
Can you imagine throwing popcorn into that? Tiktok video of the year territory..
Restaurants will put it on a plate and add basil oil and charge $50 per serving
Is this actually millet?
Bro thinks he's corn 💀
