I am so tired of not being able to use perfectly good words we've used in some cases for hundreds of years. All with perfectly good meanings. I dispise the unalive one. As if anyone isn't aware it's a stupid substitute for a perfectly good word. Or it's used and you think "on purpose, accidently, from old age." We have perfectly good words for all of that. Edit: had to correct because when I hit send unalive became unalike. And...it just did it again.
@@pmc2999 yep i'm tired too. i've been banned once from youtube for 24 hours because i refused to be censored. the worst part is that now there's an AI reading every post and you can't even camouflage words very well because the goddamn AI is very good at catching disguised "no-no words".
I used to watch you all of the time with my ex-girlfriend. We dated for 4 years and were friends for almost a decade. We'd sit down and watch a video or two while we ate. Making jokes like *plays frozen hotsauce as soon as she takes a bite from her bacon* She was in the medical field and I just enjoyed learning, so it was a great time together. I'd ask questions about terminology i didn't fully understand, and she'd explain it in deeper detail to me. I started memorizing terms and even made a game of it. Every time you'd say a medical term we'd press pause and I'd guess the meaning of it. I was actually becoming quite good at it lol. Overall it was just a wholesome good time. After a bad breakup, I just couldn't watch these anymore. I would get flooded with happy memories from the past and then immediately become sad and depressed because I missed her very much. After almost a year, this is the first time that I was able to enjoy your content the way I used to. I really love your content and it continues to bring joy into my life. The very real lessons that are taught here and the empathy for those who are portrayed in the video. Just wanted to say thanks for your contribution to the world, medical field and all of your viewers' lives.
Thanks so much for sharing. I am glad you’re able to enjoy the videos again. I’ve been in similar before and for me it was a time very difficult too and hard to describe in words. Stay strong brother, bright future!
I really hope you see this, I worked at a interactive aquarium and "zoo". The corporation did not take the complaints of the fish room employees about the leaking ozone machine after 9 hours a day for 6 months of breathing in this ozone the girl started coughing up blood and chunks of her lung. I really hope one day you do a piece on the effects of ozone poisoning.
Ooooh, I've never heard of this happening before. How did the parts of her lungs start to come up? I think what your talking about would be a blood clot that looks like a cast of her lung. She couldn't cough up parts of her lung because their wouldn't be pressure to cough with. 🤔

as soon as i saw the all asian casting I immediately know which case it would be. Older chinese generations do this a lot, i remember growing up my grandparents would put leftover out in the open, freeze food for so long, and eat expired food (we even have specific recipe for rotten egg, which i refuse to eat) It's sad cus they got those habit from the poverty they went through.
Oh it's not just the Chinese culture but anybody who went through the depression in the United States was that bad too as a nurse who did private duty and homes Oh my God In the '80s and '90s you would find these people with crap in their refrigerators that they ate that had mold in it. It would just totally freak you out I remember going to this one house and I was trying to clean out her fridge before she would eat any of it and she grabbed this thing of Cool whip that had mold in it and she was trying to eat it saying it's still good and I'm like no it's not She says well it's not your money that got spent on it and I don't want you wasting it I cannot tell you how many of these people who grew up during the depression where people starve to death that is not something they talk about but they did. This is how bad it was in Cincinnati Ohio You slowly went from living in a house or an apartment to where you were maybe renting a room to you ended up in an abandoned car and when you no longer can pay for the space in the car he lives in a cardboard box and when you knew that you were finally at the end of your life you would walk up this hill that was a park and at the top of the hill you would lay down and you would die and then they would come and pick up your body That's how it was in Cincinnati during the Great Depression. So these people had such bad habits because they were living in destitution during the Great Depression rural people didn't suffer like the people who lived in a cities and so many people disappear during the depression who never ever showed up again they just died on the wayside You think the grapes are broth was a made-up story No that crap that's in that book is very true.
i have a philippino friend that will cook a stew-sort of dish, with rice, and leave it on the back of the stove for a whole week. when he wants some, he turns on the burner and heats it all up, eats what he wants, then lets it cool back down. FOR A WEEK. i don't know how he's still alive.
Inuit babies were fed spoiled meat. By the time they were adults, their body had already developed immunity to it. Me thinks our bodies are more adaptable to the environment at a young age.
As a scientist specializing in nutrition, I can tell you that freezing the noodles for a year was not the problem. The process of freezing prevents bacteria and food spoilage, no matter how long the food is frozen. Food in the freezer for a long time can certainly change in taste, colour and texture, but it will not give you food poisoning. This food must have had bacteria before it was put in the freezer, or it was left out to defrost and then bacteria started to grow. If is best to always defrost food in the refrigerator, even if it takes a day or two.
My mom would buy fried chicken and keep it on the counter overnight or sitting in the oven in the box it came in. I'd never eat it the next day but she would finish it all. I don't know how she survived doing that for so many years.
Some of the worst food poisoning I’ve ever had, was from grain-based foods. Like rice or wheat. People usually pay plenty of attention to caring about.meat when thinking of food poisoning. But ANY food can give you food poisoning. Any food can get bacteria or fungus and cause food poisoning. So idiots often leave out grain-based foods for too long-like rice or pasta-and it gets bad bacteria/fungus and gives food poisoning.
This is a good case presentation highlighting that particular condition. Might also be a reason why in the Philippines, there are mortalities after Tuba and Lambanog consumption. These two are liquor made from fermented coconut. Great job for this upload! 🙏🏻
Not even a full 30 seconds in to this video and all I needed to read was "noodles". He's made videos about bad noodles, bad rice, and bad spaghetti/pasta before. Just spared 24 minutes from my life. Ty.
In the chinese reporting the surviving son said his mom took the frozen noodles out of the fridge, leftit outside for a few days before cooking it due to lack of space in the fridge. edit: this was from the news media from an interview with one of the survivors after the incident so it might not be included in the medical report which probably why chubbyemu didn't include it here's the text from the original report: 据张先生介绍,在东北三省,酸汤子是比较常见的食物,餐馆专门有卖。当时聚餐中毒的9个人中,他只认识姑姑姑父以及父母,“但姑姑姑父在当天就去世了”。据他后来了解,当天聚餐的其他人都是远房亲戚,多年未见。 他说,出事后,当时没吃酸汤子的三个年轻人中,有一人曾向他表示,酸汤子是她母亲做的,因为冰箱放不下,其母亲就把冷冻过的酸汤子从冰箱里拿出来,放在阴凉潮湿的地方放了几天
I recently found out that Chinese have space for actual dishwashers and fill the space with a totally useless dish warmer. The woman has to actually wash the dishes in the sink and then for no reason at all put them in the warmer.

The kid, ace, who ate the chips is going to be scarred for the rest of his life😔 At least he is alive, poor dude… But I cant believe he just lost all 4 of his own family members. How Ironic life can be. Chips could be healthier than noodles🍜
Not fully right.. they ate the corn noodle year ago and were fine.. it just the mother did not make new fermented noodle and used last year stock that make them suffered..
@@phaedrapage4217Bro whiskey, unless it contains methanol, is fine. Ethanol is genuinely poison not just for us but also for bacteria. As long as it wasn't distilled by an amateur you have nothing to fear. Alcohol was actually not just consumed in history for its properties as a drug. It was simply safer to consume than water. It was diluted making the water used for the dilution safe to drink. Just remember not anything that's a poison for us is also a poison for bacteria. But it's easy to tell what is. Ethanol dries things up, that's common knowledge which means it basically rips cells open. Other examples of the same effect are sugar and salt which are also disinfectants.
No whiskey, daum. The issue, mom likely had a lump of frozen dough which took ages to unfreeze and largely enough time for malicious bacteria to work and likely it stayed in fridge undecided if cook it or not after first dinner till she decided to hurl it to freezer. Especially due to unfreezing stuff on air makes things humid so extra good for bacterias to work. My guess even that dish would be totally fine frozen even for 50 years if process all dough into noodles before boiling final stage and freeze them like that.
I got SO lucky. In college, i was super poor and realised i left a frozen chimichunga burrito 2 DAYS in my moms car. I couldnt afford to waste it and didnt study food safety. It smelled like old dorritos but i microwaved the meaty burrito. I felt fine but imagine...i couldve ended like this family. God was truly with me!!
It wasn't home made (so it was probably almost bacteria free when you bought it), it wasn't ever intentionally fermented (so no chance of a lot of possible toxins). You could still have died of botulism poisoning, so... glad you aren't going to repeat that trick... but the risk was never as high as leaving a fermented corn dish out on the counter to thaw (some other commenters figured out which case it was and why it happened)
Been there before. Left a plate of ribs in the car from the night before. Remembered them around lunch time the next day during my shift. Knowing what I know know I would just go hungry.
I can't imagine the guilt, fear, anger, and sadness that the eldest son went through to see and experience everyone else in his immediate family die. I hope he's doing okay. Reading the case study, 9 people died in this case. Heartbreaking. Edit: The surviving son is playing himself! That's amazing. So strong.
Yeah and it had happened before. I looked it up too and found a case in Africa where 75 died and over 200 got sick. Scary. and very hard for that young man, especially since he didn't like those noodles to begin with .
I feel so extremely sorry for the single survivour. I cant imagine how long it takes to get over a trauma like this. I wish him all the very best for his future.

For anyone unaware, the freezing itself isn’t a problem, it’s how it is handled. A news article posted elsewhere in the comments explained it was left to thaw on the kitchen counter, then eventually put into the fridge, then days later it was prepared and consumed. Even without this particular fermented corn toxin, the family would have likely suffered from food poisoning at the very least.
Correct, never thaw food on the kitchen counter. Always thaw it in the fridge, where the food will always be lower than 5°c. That way you are sure that no bacteria have contaminated the food. If you are in a hurry, you can thaw it in a microwave oven, but make sure to cook it immediately after.
@@joshmerchant8737 probs true. i would think as long as the item you are thawing isn't massive then it should be fine as the frozen parts will keep the non frozen parts cool. As long as you dont forget about it then i would think it would be fine. Either way thawing in the fridge will give you a better result.
man could you imagine? being all happy and cheery with your family only for a few hours to pass and they're all dead from the 1 food item you hate? would make me hate that dish even more.
Coming from an Asian family, I know for sure that Asian parents likely don't take food safety very seriously. They often leave dishes cooked for lunch out at room temperature to be reheated for dinner 7-8 hours later with only a basket covering the top to keep flies away or leave cooked rice overnight in the rice cooker. When I tell them to put it in the fridge, they come up with excuses like how the food tastes off if it's refrigerated and then reheated or how Asians have been doing this for centuries and never had any problems. I think it might have to do with Eastern medicine having no emphasis on germs and the toxins they produce and most older Asians still trusting Eastern medicine more.
My husband is Chinese and his momma is like this. I just go behind her and refrigerate everything she leaves out lol I just tell her the cats will get it because we have three cats. lol
My former Asian boyfriend's mother would also leave rice out and food in pans for days... It sounds stupid, I know, but although I thought it one day I'm bound to get sick and die, I ate it because I didn't want to be rude...
" doing this for centuries and never had any problems " yeah, of course, the dead ones aren't alive to tell the histories you can't have any problem if you're dead !
Pretty sure that is just the typical "we've doing it this ways for years" that you see literally everywhere for everything. Cars, programming, carpentry, music, trying to get someone to update the menu for a restaurant, how you should be cutting the grass on the lawn, etc. People can have a pretty huge obsession with tradition and "this is how we have always done it"
We are in my wife's West African country, where products made from fermented corn are a staple starch. She is not aware of any "common knowledge" pertaining to food poisoning from these fermented products. Given the relatively unsophisticated* methods food preservation practiced by some people some of the time, it makes me wonder why the problems demonstrated in this video are unknown or at least not common. * e.g. instead of refrigerating leftovers, they are kept on a stove top and reheated periodically.
Well, I don't know for sure since I don't live in such an area, but I reason such incidents do occur, but the cause is not so easily discovered by people with much less access to high level medical information and facilities. In the most developed regions of the world, even very isolated communities can have a body examined professionally if the cause of death is unknown.
You need to freeze food immediately. Notice the video shows Fresh cooked noodles being made and frozen While OP repeats "Frozen Leftover Noodles" again and again. If you going to freeze leftover, heat it to at least 160°F for at least 3 minutes. A full boil or microwave Fermenting noodles is a whole new ball game. Fermenting relies on microorganisms to convert sugars.
Correct, and a news article posted elsewhere in the comments explained it was left to thaw on the kitchen counter, then eventually put into the fridge, then days later it was prepared and consumed. Even without this particular fermented corn toxin, the family would have likely suffered from food poisoning at the very least.
@@MsLemon42 I have tried and tried to make my husband stop doing this. He doesn't want to put hot food directly into the fridge or freezer, for some reason. While I am starting to freak out more and more. We have been fine thus far, but it only takes one time... I'm looking forward to the winter, when he at least leaves the food outside to cool down. Better than leaving it inside the warm house to cool down.
@@Elora445 please don't put hot food in the fridge or freezer. It raises the temperature of the fridge/freezer which in turn might cause the microbes to grow faster and frozen food to thaw (and it consumes more electricity). The best way to prevent microbial growth is to cool the food quickly outside the fridge and then put it in (I use cold/cooling plates meant for catering).
Whoa these last two comments are dangerously misguided. Why do people speak so adamantly about things they don't really know about? Do NOT ever let cooked food get to "room temperature." That is the ideal temperature for food-born pathogens to grow. It is absolutely far safer to put hot food in the fridge than it is to just let it sit out and cool down. Your fridge controls its temperature - if you put something hot in there it will simply work harder to equalize the temperature in a short period of time. It is extremely unlikely that putting hot food in the fridge will lower the temperature of anything in the fridge enough to be of concern unless you put it directly on top of or squeezed next to something else. Best case scenario is to create an ice bath to cool down any leftovers quickly. However, simply putting them in the fridge when still warm will generally be fine.
I dont think its just fermented products. I made corn grits one time from a package bought at an asian supermarket. I felt nauseous every time i ate it like i felt sick, I suspect some kind of bacteria that couldnt be killed. The same happened with coucous another time. Tried different brands after and felt fine so you gotta go by your taste buds.
This is the most horrifying video on this channel yet. A whole family deceased, just like that. Ace gonna be haunted by this for the rest of his life... poor guy.
I honestly can’t imagine putting one foot in front of the other and keeping on after that. I mean. Its bad enough they went from Normal day to gone before the sun set. But to wake up the next day and realize it wasn’t a dream…
The actual case report is even worse than what we are presented with in this video. "On October 4, a total of 12 persons involving 5 families gathered for lunch and dinner. At around 8∶00 am on October 5, the 12 persons had breakfast together and left separately. Among them, 9 persons consumed the sour soup , while 3 did not and all the 12 persons had consumed the other food items. The 9 persons then successively developed gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Finally, all 9 cases died after treatment."
When I was a child, I ate a chicken sandwich that was raw in the middle and got incredibly sick. That was enough to scare me for life. I always check food temps, and always am very aware of cross contamination. I follow a strict rule- if in doubt, throw it out. It's hard, especially when food is so expensive, and my family (whom I cook for) tease me all the time about my paranoia around food poisoning. But tragedies like these are so sad- I will take the teasing over the chance of making anyone I love sick. Great and informative video as always. Everyone, please take care and be safe ❤
I'm picky about food safety too. Last night I threw away a package of meatballs because the color was off. Luckily, I had another that looked normal. People I work with will eat food that's been sitting out for 5 or 6 hours and I'm like, don't call me in if yall get sick. 😅
anyone who has never had REAL food poisoning doesnt know why you dont want to get it. "its just a stomachache!" when in reality even the more mild ones will leave you in agony on the toilet for a week.
@@CynthiaMcCraw 5-6 hours is really still in the acceptable range, or at least on the edge (this is all on the absolute safest side). assuming the food was cooked properly to begin with (most food poisoning cases are a combination of BOTH, not throughly cooking the food as well as not controlling how long it has been "in the danger zone" 40f-140f. once properly cooked food reaches below 140 internally, it has about 6 hours "in the danger zone". the 6 hours ideally being used to get the food below 40f (it ideally is supposed to be below 70 in 4 iirc). as long as you are cooking your food properly and are careful not to cross contaminate, 5-6 hours is not really dangerous. reheating food past 165f is another good way to be careful, but it wont "fix" food that was already dangerous. I would mainly apply this to things you cooked yourself, because you cant trust a random restaurant to not have contaminated it or undercooked it. perfectly normal for meatballs and ground beef to oxidize (ground meat has lots of surface area for this to happen), and turn a little green even. still perfectly safe, by itself. the same will happen to steak at a slower rate. there is a point where it would affect the taste, but you would smell it long before that becomes a problem. though as a note smell has no direct bearing on dangerous bacteria being present in food.
Whoa so I watch documentaries and stuff on yt at 1.25 speed but his voice becomes robotic at 12:00 anyone else notice this? Replaying at normal speed sounds fine.
it would have been great to learn what the growing conditions for the bacterium are... fermented corn is consumed in large quantities in Mexico though. Corn tortillas are produced from corn cooked in an alkaline solution, it is then left overnight to ferment
Unfortunately, the conditions that cause B. gladioli to produce bongkrekic acid aren't well-characterized. Sometimes, the bacteria can grow and not produce toxin. It's also super difficult to detect the toxin and the bacteria (there have only been 3000 known cases), so many people might be poisoned and recover before reporting. There's a source in the description "Bongkrekic Acid and Burkholderia gladioli pathovar cocovenenans: Formidable Foe and Ascending Threat to Food Safety", published in 2023, that summarizes the state of research. There are some factors that seem interesting, like salt content, acidity, and spices, but it's not clear why certain food preparations don't make the toxin.
maybe here, I found out never let your wet "carb-item" sit out all day (bad bacteria), and I even suspect that bit of cooked rice if its over a week old in the fridge now.

@@user-yd3rs2mg4c he changes the facts on everything likely to avoid legal issues for monetizing his stories, it was really a family of 12 and there were 3 survivors. still sad though.
I always keep in mind that cooking kills bacteria but doesn’t remove toxins released by bacteria. I never take chances. I have a list on my fridge of how long foods can be refrigerated. If I don’t get leftovers into the fridge within 2 hours, I throw them out. I’m already disabled due to chronic illness. I don’t need to give myself food poisoning too. I feel really bad for the survivor. The survivor guilt must be unbearable.
Corn is native to the Americas, which means no one in Eurasia had access to it until the 16th century at least. It could have become a traditional food in that time period, but it's not an ancestral food. I agree that it's ironic that the only member of the family that survived was the one who ate western junk food.
Food that is full of nutrients is also delicious for bacteria. Food that is devoid of nutrition -- bacteria would literally rather starve to death than eat it

A young adult, originally from remote Peru, growing up in US, came to stay at our house in UK a few years ago. Meat leftovers from dinner accidentally weren't refrigerated overnight. In the morning, they were happy to eat it for breakfast and I tried to explain they shouldn't. They were used to not wasting food and money was very tight, so they couldn't understand my point. I'm sure I seemed wasteful and careless. In the end, they ate it and didn't get sick, but this story reminds us they sometimes people are lucky and others aren't. Obviously not having enough money/food is a big factor in people eating stuff when they should discard it, but also culture, tradition, how you were raised, also play a big part.
Did that for the past 2 days. Ground beef was in the fridge for ever a week. Started to get moldy. I removed the top viable mold and ate it. I'm unemployed currently. Receiving government assistance, SNAP benefits. I spent too much money to throw away meat that taste and smells normal.

This would be my worst nightmare. Eating a nice meal and getting along with everyone, only to get a phone call later that day in the middle of work from one of your family members in a health crisis and driving back to help. Then to arrive and find everyone else you had enjoyed the morning with are in critical condition too. Your younger siblings, along with your parents, all dying on the same day. With how quickly Ace got to the hospital, and how no one pressured him to eat the special homemade traditional meal that morning makes me feel like they were a very close family of kind people. I hope he got the support he needed to work through such a tragedy. I don't know if I could
We eat tempeh almost everyday. We even have special dishes from left over tempeh. We eat it as traditional dish in some part of our country. It s super delicious and we pass this recipe from one generation to next generation.
One thing to remember is that you should only defrost frozen items in the fridge or while cooking them, never by leaving out on the counter. If you do need to defrost something before cooking it and you don't have to do it in the fridge, then you can defrost by placing the item in a bowl and running COLD water over it until it is thawed. Never use warm or hot water for this purpose. Also, if such a need arises, consider just making something else that day and thawing the item in the fridge overnight.
Never understood how people thaw stuff in the fridge overnight. I put something there to thaw and it’s still frozen solid after 24 hours. Do people specifically set their fridge to higher temperature or something?
Yer, just buy food that you plan eat next three or four days. I have small refrigerate and I do not eat big meal as well. I go there to buy food twice a week. Give priority what I already have as I want shrimp but no one person size, only family or business size. So basically I had to eat shrimp for few days in rows before I can buy different meat. Edited: I do not cook all shrimps at once but divide them. Most of them is on freeze then by one by one it was move to refrigerate to be thawed. I do not want risk thaws it in room temperature as I do forget to cook it sometimes (I do skip meal pretty often, not my intention) so when I am ready to cook, I just take small amounts that already thawed in refrigerator which take longer to complete thawing but more safer.
