Video Idea(s) Test what's the hardest fruit/veggie the potato slicer can cut through before getting stuck or breaking Test the stirmate to find its maximum amount of thickness, it can stir through.
@@ron200088 I'd truly be surprised if he didn't. You never know though. 🤷♂️ I mean sweet potato is certainly a country thing. I assume he is country, but you know how assume is spelled. 😂😂
At first I thought you were joking about the sweet potatoes, but then delighted in your discovery. Just to verify, you know that grandma’s secret soup is condensed and need water, right!? Right??!!
You need to eat sweet potatoes before you say anything about them. Fry them, air fry, bake. Add butter, salt, and pepper. You can make a casserole with sweet potatoes smashed with a brown sugar, butter with marshmallows on top. Yummy look up a recipe for sweet potato casserole first. I'm missing something.
@@shanayabarlow hahahaha, nope, I’ll be on the look out. I have noticed there have been a few things where I’m baffled that he didn’t know what it was.
It’s hilarious, he is maybe the worst guy to do reviews. Doesn’t even know sweet potatoes and zucchini 😂 that’s what makes his content so fun, authentic and kind of wholesome.
Either the Sweet Potato thing is the best joke Tyler has EVER made, or this man has been so sheltered he doesn't know what the hell a sweet potato is, and that disturbs me. If that's the case, Ube (purple) potatoes are gonna absolutely blow his mind.
As a guy who grew up in the south. Seeing him be so confused about a sweet potato had me rolling on the floor. Haven’t laughed that hard in a while. Thank you Tyler for making my day.
Yeah like what does he eat at Thanksgiving? And you haven't lived without some good sweet potato fries. Baked sweet potatoes with butter and brown sugar 🤌
Tyler: my years of culinary experience say *this* is the right amount oil for a cake. Also Tyler: what in the world is a *_sweet_* potato?! Orange pOtAtO?!
@@mattterrell4304 not after they sold Campbell soup but kept the recipes it's not nearly as salty or condensed as the original that's also why the soup taste like tin flavored sea water 🤮
I absolutely love sweet potatoes and was amazed that he didn’t know what they were! Sweet potato fries, mashed sweet, potatoes, candied yams (different, but very similar, ) etc. it’s basically a healthier potato. They are much better for you despite being sweeter, are easier to digest and far better calorie wise! Many restaurants will serve baked sweet potato or sweet potato fries, so try them, they are delicious!!
yep. we have a brand here in texas called bruces candied yams which it does say on the label "CUT SWEET POTATOES" yams is what i believe to be a different term to describe and identify a sweet potato from a normal spud
Yeah, I really don't like sweet potato fries, but I vaguely remember having a twice-baked sweet potato at a street fair a bunch of years ago, and, it was good - _so_ good. I really ought to give sweet potatoes another chance and pick some up at the grocery store, albeit only after getting some good recipes for them. 🤤
Tyler’s sheer lack of knowledge on sweet potatoes is EXTREMELY hilarious! 😂😂😂 It’s never dawned on me until now that there are some people out there in the world that actually have NO idea what a sweet potato is. 😂😂
At my work, we offer sweet potatoes as a side option. You can also get them "loaded" with marshmallows and caramel. I personally prefer butter and cinnamon. They are also sometimes referred to as yams.
I laughed so hard, that I couldn't breathe. "Why are they orange? They're all Orange." Just too funny. I grew up eating all kinds of Potatoes and arguing over sweet Potato not being Yam. Yams are yams and labeling sweet potato Yam should be illegal according to my family
Agree with comments below about Sweet Potatoes. I’ve never heard of anyone not knowing what they are, and yes… they are orange! 😂 The stirring contraption is to keep your noodles and other ingredients from sticking to the bottom of your pot, and it looked like it was working properly.
Given that he called Campbell's "grandma's special recipe chicken soup" it's pretty clear that Tyler knows full well what sweet potatoes are - he's just hardcore trolling.
I feel relatively confident in saying that Tyler is playing a joke on us and absolutely knows what a sweet potato is. Sweet potato fries are everywhere now a days, and there’s no way he’s never seen one at the supermarket. Also, we have seen Tyler joking about being clueless before, and he has some pretty obvious tells
This has to be it, it’s literally impossible for a southern boy to be clueless of a sweet potato. If he’s not the state needs to take custody of this man immediately
Seriously, How do you not know what a sweet potato (Yam) is. 1)It is a Thanksgiving staple. 2) Tons of restaurants have sweet potato fries as alternatives to regular fries. Some days I think you were raised in a cave. But your reactions are classic. I have to say. Love all the info in this one.
I’ve never seen or heard of this channel before but this man needs to be protected at all costs because his confusion and lack of understanding of basic every day life is one of the most precious innocent things I’ve ever seen
“I think it’s stuck” after whacking it on the table twice. You think? “I think this is for like French fries or something” when it’s clearly cutting French fries. Never heard of sweet potatoes!!!! What is going on!!!!!
I was impressed that all of these products were performing so well, then I learned they were being reviewed by someone who had never seen a sweet potato before, and now I need to reevaluate this whole video.
That usually how it goes lol. Most of the time he's reviewing products he has no idea how to use or what they're even for. His common knowledge reserves are rather skewed. It's entertaining to watch all the same but can be frustrating at times.
In this episode, Tyler reveals his ignorance regarding root vegetables. Yes, sweet potatoes are called such because they are sweeter than normal potatoes, though not sweet perse. They are orange because... that's what the inside of that plants roots look like. If I'm not mistaken, uncooked, they are harder than normal potatoes, which would explain the machine's struggling. I would advise you to go to a restaurant and order sweet potato fries or sweet potato casserole or sweet potato pie, if you want to experience what it tastes like in a culinary dish
@@jerj4805 Yeah they're called yams. People only call them sweet potatoes because they look like potatoes, but they're really just another root vegetable
Yams are starchy and have a rough, brown exterior. They can grow up to 45 feet long and are eaten in parts of Latin America, West Africa, the Caribbean, and Asia. Sweet potatoes are a New World root vegetable, have a softer, reddish skin, a creamier interior, and often, a darker interior.
Basically anything you can make with regular potatoes you can make with sweet potatoes although the texture is usually different and often less starchy.
@@blossombloomer6652 was slightly concerned when he started talking about putting it on its side to cook a grilled cheese rather than just cooking it normal like it was a pan
If you grow up in the north and nobody in your family makes anything with them, you grow up with them never even mentioned, how in the world are you supposed to know about this root vegetable that a large percentage of America loves during the holidays? I bet there are foods that a lot of people in the US eat you have never heard of. It is all relative. Just bc you grew up with them being prepared on your table and on holidays that does not mean everyone else had that experience. This may come as a shock to you but the whole world DOES NOT EAT SWEET POTATOES!
@@donnalynn2 I think I can retire from looking at youtube comments from here on out- I've seen everything, including someone getting mad over sweet potatoes.
It's been a long time since I've laughed as hard as I did at Tyler's absolute confusion and disgust with sweet potatoes. I genuinely didn't know there were people anywhere in the country that have not at least heard of them.
@EpicM147_NoVa lol what? You aren't even making any sense at all. Let me clarify what I thought was clear in my comment: I very clearly said "in the country" meaning the US which is where I am quite certain Tyler is located. Also, regardless of what you CALL them, he was completely blown away by their very existence. He didn't recognize them. It had nothing to do with the name. Now, I have no idea what the correlation here is with eggs but you do you, boo.
@EpicM147_NoVa Canada isn’t in the US where sweet potatoes are ubiquitous and yams and sweet potatoes aren’t the same thing, though many people incorrectly call sweet potatoes yams (common in the south where I’m from).
@EpicM147_NoVa but the comment you responded to was specifically saying they didn’t realize anyone in THIS country (the US) didn’t know what sweet potatoes where and you responded with “well I’m from Canada didn’t know” like it’s the same thing. So, no shit people in different countries aren’t familiar with the same foods, I didn’t say otherwise, nobody did. I was calling our your disregard for what the og comment actually said… obviously. And why do you assume he grew up in Canada? What is the basis for that assumption?
kumara are better if you can get them, try them, sweet potato are tasteless compared to them, they have a brown purple skin and whitesh yellow flesh, they need peeling because the skin is tough
🤣🤣🤣 I literally only watch Tyler because of his lack of knowledge. Its like watching an adult version of a toddler discovering adulting products and purposes. Every day is a discovery, especially when youre Tyler 🤣🤣🤣 #AwesomeContent
Love the breakfast deal you reviewed! Looks like it cooked the bacon amazingly and saved on using spray on the sides before laying down eggs or pancake batter. Thank you so much for making and posting this content!
Honestly that breakfast maker looks like a really good buy. For a long time, my parents had an electric frying pan sort of thing from like the 1970s that they used so, _so_ often to make excellent pancakes and french toast and grilled-cheese. That breakfast maker is just about exactly the same thing, but with the folding gimmick to make excellent bacon without flipping. I'm honestly kinda sad and mad that as I'm writing this comment, it seems to have been discontinued. 😕
Tyler if you have legitimately never heard of sweet potatoes...just how? They grow in America, they're everywhere, especially around Thanksgiving. I'm so confused and yet amused, because his reactions were amazingly authentic. If it was a joke, then honestly it was amazing
@@gabrielangel1923 sweet potatoes are not called yams. Yams are called yams. They are two totally different foods that don't even look the same. Yams are darker and look more rough. Sweet potatoes look like.... potatoes. They're just a different color and more elongated. Sweet potatoes can be made into French fries and pies. Yams cannot be used the same way.
Tyler how can you not know what a sweet potato is? They are in the US lo. We grow them near the coast of SOUTH CAROLINA. They are sweet and they are orange yes.
The hole time you were cutting the sweet potato I was crying from how hard I was laughing 😅 could be one of my favourite videos I even made my husband watch it when he woke up 😂😂
Sweet potatoes and yams are very similar, often served at Thanksgiving or Christmas (i.e. candied yams). The color varies from light (almost white) to a darker orange, depending on the type of potato you have. Sweet potato fries are quite popular in many areas.
Sweet potatoes are not very similar at all to yams lol. Just some regions of the US happen to call sweet potatoes yams - they bare very little resemblance at all to real yams.
They are fantastic cubed in byte size pieces with brown sugar and white sugar, and a quarter stick of butter, baked for about 20 min or almost tender with a fork, then smothered in mini marsh mellows. My brisket, that, and green bean casserole is what I look most forward to on Thanksgiving... in that order.
@@Lineback3r54 why do people from the states insist on covering savory foods with sugar it baffles the mind. You would put marshmallows on mashed potatoes so why on sweet potatoes?
@@LawfullSpook psychopaths put sweet stuff of mashed potatoes for one, the texture would be gross i assume. Sweet potato casserole is a legit dish that is pretty good invented in the south (of the states). Your arguements make no sense to be frank. I mean i like a nice burger, but I wouldn't blend it up in a milkshake, comparing two different things there. Lastly, most people who are the most vocal about the type of food people cook or eat, likes pineapple on their pizza... glass houses and such.
@@Lineback3r54 your 2nd paragraph is exactly my point Sweet potatoes aren't actually sweet they are a savory food that generally eaten around the world with salt, pepper and garlic etc adding Marshmallows to them is actually no different than adding strawberries to a beef burger.
I ate campbell’s soup my whole life before I, for some reason, decided to read the directions and realized that you are supposed to add water to it, no wonder it was so salty😂😂😂
That bewildered look at the flying insect when he was cutting the cake in half, came absolutely out of nowhere yet was so hilarious! None of this being scripted (besides the ad), that's the secret sauce right there!
I can't believe he never heard of sweet potatoes!!! That is so bazaar!! I thought everyone knows what sweet potatoes are. That is crazy!! Tyler, I hope you read this, just make french fries with them and your taste buds will thank you! Also, look up how to make a sweet potato carceral and your taste buds will give you a standing ovation! I want to know what his thanksgiving dinners look like. One thing I look forward to every Thanksgiving is the sweet potato casserole.
Even here in germany these orange sweet potatoes have been around for some years now. But fries out of them are not nearly as good as usual yellow fries! Too crispy and sweet in my opinion.
Fun fact. My wife's niece is from Columbia, and they have sweet potatoes growing everywhere. In their country the regular potato counts as rare and fancy as the sweet potato in many other countries. Also in Columbia you have to pay more for the regular potatoes as you do for the sweet potatoes in other countries
I can't believe you have never had sweet potatoes. They're from AMERICA!! They are very popular in my country - UK. They are high in beta-carotene which is probably why they are orange. You can cook them just like normal spuds - fries, chips (crisps), baked, stewed. A great, healthier alternative to ordinary potatoes. In fact, you've inspired me - that's what I'm going to make for my tea tonight, sweet potato fries.
This, some of these products like the potato slicer are pretty cool, but how do you actually clean them, specially the ones with a lot of moving part or electronics.
My wife(newlyweds) and I love the videos you post and the smiles you bring from being so honest! Sitting down and watching your videos brings us such smiles (and to Amazon) lol! Keep it up!
Thank you. Just like everyone else, my family and I LOST IT when your encounter with a sweet potato unfolded before our eyes. Everyone's jaw was open in disbelief that quickly turned into tear filled laughter. (not in a bad way) We actually picked some up in your honor today to bake with sone cinnamon and butter.
What country does yams come from? What makes them orange??? Yes, sweet potatoes and yams are a little different, but Tyler didn't even mention that they could possibly be the same thing or similar to yams. He was so confused. He looks and acts like a country boy, but never heard of sweet potatoes or even sweet potato fries. 🤦♂️🤣🤣🤣
Tyler, you can get a manual potato "chipper" for like $40, and it's almost as easy and fast to use. Plus, you don't have to wait for the motor to slowly retract, just flip the handle back and you're ready to go.
but to be fair, the automatic one would be for someone who might not have the arm strength to use a manual one. i know when i was working for Five Guys, my arms got really sore while using their potato cutter. but i then, im a girl that doesnt work out, i got weak nerd arms
@@brony4869 yeah, automatic is definitely the way to go if you're doing it all day every day. Tyler just seemed to balk at the cost, and considering he's not making fries all the time, a manual one sounds like the better deal.
I have a manual one, and it's meant to be bolted to the wall (into studs). If you do that, the long lever handle makes it easy to use. It's really not meant for sweet potatoes or yams which are much woodier in texture until you cook them. I tried them in the manual cutter, and heavy-duty as it is, it was not only borderline impossible to send sweet potatoes through, but it looked dangerously close to bending and ruining the cutting blades. Also, from the sound of the electric version laboring to cut them I suspect that it wouldn't be long till gears stripped and/or the motor burned out if you tried this repeatedly.
Yeah, but sweet potatoes are a bitch to do on manual ones, just sayin'. Of course, Tyler didn'y (apparently) know thus as he seemed really confuzzled that they even exist.
I have one I bought back in the 50's, this thing is a beast, the handle is about 2 feet long and it will handle a 12" long potato and the slicer part is about 8" square, but my favorite part about it is that the squares in the slicer grid are 3/8ths of an Inch which makes nice fat meaty fries, not those skinny tough stringy things you get today! It was bolted down to the wall with a bucket under it to catch the slices in the restaurant ! I don't know how old it is exactly but it was already old when I bought it and has been used at least once a week since then! The old man who sold me the Fry machine told me a thing about fries that I never knew, that is to me a game changer in making big fries or even potato wedges and that is to soak the raw fries or wedges in a bucket of ice water for an hour before frying them. Then the second you take the fries out of the ice water shake the hell out of them to remove as much water as you can and then double fry them.
I love the all-in-one breakfast maker…until you have to spend 2 hrs cleaning it…😂. Same can be said for the potato slicer and the auto-stirrer. I prefer 1 really good knife.
It's not going to take that long the thing was barely dirty when he was done just use a little cooking spray it's not that hard. I'm not even sure you would need that just use a sponge in water and in a few seconds it'll be clean.
I think that stirring thing is meant for making sauces, which have a tendency to stick and burn at the bottom of the pot. That makes that "window wiper" that's going along the pot bottom quite useful.
@@steveweinberg462 I use my blender for hollandaise. Blend the yolks on medium and slowly pour the hot butter (Ghee works too) through the top. Add lemon and cayenne and it's done.
I love the chip cutter (French fries, am Scottish) It reminds me of the hand powered one my granny had. Exactly the same just no motor and a big handle
With Campbell's soup, you have to add 1 can of water for every can of soup, an instruction that's often overlooked. Hence the massive sodium content and soup being thicker than expected. My mom would add 1/2 can water and 1/2 can sodium-free chicken broth, it's pretty damn decent.
My lady friend has a veggie pasta (vasta) maker and you can use apples to make peanut butter and apple rolls. It presses everything out into a sheet and from there you can cut it into whatever noodle you want. We're planning on making zucchini lasagna first. We haven't used it yet.
Most french fry cutters can't handle sweet potatoes well, that's a pretty solid find. Also sweet potatoes are called sweet potatoes because they turn sweet when they are cooked, due to the high presence of amylase in the potato, that converts starches to sugars.
Hey Tyler Tube, I would love to see your reaction to trying a food product called Miracle Berries. They say the berries change the sour taste of food to sweet. Onion=apple and Lemon=orange You could get a preview of the berries on Kids Try Miracle Berries. I have not tried them for myself but I would love to see your reaction..... please ☺️
I don't think I've ever come across a grown man so fascinated by sweet potatoes. Kinda cool to see, woulda been neat to seen him taste a cooked fry or something.
The sweet potatoes thing makes me laugh. As a person with a potatoes allergy I'm all to familiar and love them. Also fun fact. They aren't potatoes. They are in fact more like yams then anything. And not all are orange. Jersey or jewel (I've seen them called both) are size and shaoe of sweet potatoes but are white inside.
Actually no, I THINK Sweet potatoes are actually true Potatoes, but are a long distant cousin to the what WE consider a true potato, real sweet potatoes are actually more closely related to *Morning Glories (a flower) than to "Potatoes"!... *According to what my grandfather told me anyhow. Might want to confer with a true authority though!
Where do you live that you don’t know what yams are. They actually have a Yambilee festival in south Louisiana. You’ve never heard of sweet potato fries? Or sweet potato 🍠 pie?
Cooking oil doesn't exactly go "bad". It does go rancid after a while. But if you filter out any impurities or what not in it it's still technically "edible" They've found sealed jars of used cooking oil in Egypt that was aged at over 5000 years old and it was still edible. It can just get some really funky smells or taste in it.
"Edible" is a questionable term to apply to rancid (oxidized) oil. It's extremely unhealthy to consume and develops increasingly bad flavors as it's level of rancidity increases.
@@simul8rduude I agree. However, the suggestion was made in the video that rancid oil might not be unhealthy, which is not true. I don't know what you mean when you say that oil can be rancid without going "bad", since rancidity is exactly what is meant when people say that oil has gone bad. People are free to choose to eat unhealthy food, but we should all be given the correct information to make that choice.
@@rikwilder8838 "Experts agree that eating rancid food or oils from time to time is probably not harmful, but they do suspect that regular consumption could contribute to the development of inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular illness and even certain cancers." You only "Potentially" start to see negative problems arise from it if you regularly consume it over a long period of time. So every once in a blue moon on accident is absolutely fine.
I have a panini press that I use to do the same thing as that breakfast grill thing, except without hanging the bacon, and I've never wished i had an entire extra appliance just so i could hang my bacon. Also I've made a lot of cakes in the microwave, and my microwave cake recipes all say to use a ring "pan" so it doesn't cook unevenly in the middle, and to put a paper towel in the bottom before you pour in the batter, so that you don't have that weird moistness at the bottom.
Hands down the best cake I've ever had was from my wife's stone Dutch oven type pot from pampered chef, she would make lava cake in it in the microwave and boy howdy, just thinking about that makes my mouth water.
