Brandon Cowan Many people confuse the words WARM and HOT with each other. If you put food in a microwave for example you also "warm it up". You don't make it hotter with a microwave! :)
I don't know how it is in England, but in America the last step is always to let the food sit for about 2 minutes before removing from the microwave and then let it cool for a bit afterwards. Might help with your "That's bloody hot" complaints.
Kefkaesque13 Yeah, but no British read or follow directions. And certainly don’t let their food sit, after cooking. Don’t ask me why. Haven’t got an answer.
I subscribed a few days ago... I must say your content is quite interesting as well as your sense of humor... keep up the good work I hope to see more videos soon.
All things considered, he probably could have eaten that other breakfast pastry. After all, he's been way under this entire time and another 470 calories would probably do him much more good.
According to the Greggs website their sausage and bean melt has 1.9g of salt. I don't know why they wouldn't put that on the packaging though since I thought it was a legal requirement over here that they provide the info. Maybe they got away with it because they have nutritional information on their website though, who knows? Also I think I'll be looking for some of those hoops next time I'm in Iceland, they look tasty!
I'm not surprised about the Greggs slice being alright. about 95% of the food they sell in their stores are made in their factories and just reheated in stores. They had a documentary series on Sky a few months ago, "More than meets the pie". Also, why do you never have a pudding anymore? :(
lol I have one thats inside and is both..but a lot of people keep a large freezer in a garage or basement for long storage....I guess space in the UK is sparse
You probably feel like shit because you are not meeting the recommended calorie intake... Being under that is not good. Its like putting less gas in your car and trying to make it last just as long. It just doesn't work well like that.
That is absolutely not true. Calories have nothing to do with it. You can intake about half the recommend calories as long as you get a proper mixture of carbs, fat, protein (50%, 25% and 25% respectively).
I absolutely love these! ...but it does annoy me how you keep commenting how things are hot. Well, yes. They just came out of the oven/microwave! Of course they're going to be hot, haha. Other than that, these are brilliant. :-D
What I don't understand... is why is all of his breakfast foods have baked beans? In the UK do you guys eat that in the morning cuz over here it's something you have with bbq'd foods.
Baked beans... we in the UK are a weird bunch like that.. we can have them for breakfast (full english) lunch (beans on toast) and tea (gammon, mash, beans) for example :)
It's mainly a British Isles and Commonwealth thing deriving from the traditional fry-up. Also, here in the US beans being just part of barbeque dining, or even being part of barbeque for that matter, really depends on what part of the US you live in.
I find the sauce really sugary and kind of 'fake' tasting. Call me unusual but I prefer tinned red kidney beans or butter beans with a tin of tomatoes and some dried mixed herbs, that is actually one of my favourite meals.
When i get a frozen burger like that (Which isnt that often to be honest) Instead of microvaving it i put it on my George foreman grill. It makes the burger taste nicer and i do the bread seperate, still on the grill but it stops the bread from getting hard, or soggy. Try that next time, it's better, trust me!
Day 5, and when the wild Jeavons wakes up from his slumber, the side-effects of the food are beginning to occur; he is beginning to shamble as he walks, his speech is slurred and it's as though he has a constant hangover, and he is beginning to desire anything that isn't Iceland food...starting with the brains of his fellow men.
2 of those weren't proper meals Mike a slice i suppose is ok for brekky but 1 burger for dinner? you should have had both or something with it lol, those crisp type potato things are all aweful though I bet you have the mccoys in these last two days, still loving this series
joshua powell its nothing to do with small kitchen. i have a big kitchen but dont use freezer food much so have a big freezer that i stock up with stuff i get on offers or left over food. but he has his whole fridge outside
By day 5 here I've noticed one thing above all else: Apparently they eat a lot of baked beans across the pond. In the States baked beans are typically more sugary and almost exclusively eaten with barbequed meat. Also...It isn't the salt most likely. Unless you were drinking almost no water it is harder than you think to dehydrate by excess salt consumption.
Watching this 2 years later and was amazed again by the amount of beans for breakfast - and had forgotten I made this comment. Also to add about the salt, not all sodium listed in food is from table salt.
Any time I have a frozen burger like those, I heat the bun in either the oven or toaster whenever possible to avoid it either being soggy or rock hard.
It looks like you've actually gotten a nice bit of hit series on your hands here Mike :P. Check dem views! Who'd have thought an iceland diet would be such and interesting thing to watch :P.
Anarchist86ed If you haven't already, I'd suggest getting beans NOT in the weird tomato sauce. They're better on their own, or refried, or as a component of a casserole or something.
I would, again, like to point out that the reason you keep getting hangovers is most likely due to not getting enough calories and NOT from the salt content. You are getting half the calorie intake you are supposed to get. I wouldn't be surprised if your blood sugar was running dangerously low.
"I bet you never thought you'd want to see a man eat a burger on the internet, did you?" I saw Andy Warhol eat a whopper from Burger King. He pours ketchup on the wrapper & dips the burger in it.
Yikess... this stuff isn't doing very well for your energy, Mike. Devote day 8 to plenty of healthy and nutritious food, preferably with a lot of vegetables.
I don't think it has as much to do with "healthy and nutritious" food as it does with him ending up with significantly fewer calories every day than what he should be eating.
You can eat a lot fewer calories and still end up better than this if you eat the right stuff. The fact that what he's eating is this junk is the cause, not fewer calories.
PrehistoricBiiirds? No, it's fewer calories. Minor nutritional deficiencies aren't going to affect you nearly that much on this time scale. Eating significantly less than you should be for several days in a row? That can seriously impact how you feel, and simply isn't good for you in general. Caloric needs are not a suggestion that can be ignored, and they will start impacting you far faster than pretty much anything else dietary.
He never said he was trying to lose weight. He said he was trying a week of cheap also he said, "I'm clearly an idiot." Not true about the idiot part but funny just the same.
How do you still not know how to use a microwave properly? You have to wait a minute after the microwave goes off or you will have atomic burns in your mouth and the center may not be fully cooked.
How come you dont look at saturated fat? That's the one to catch people out as we can only have under 20grams I believe. Also show the ingredients maybe? I don't have a degree in chemistry but I want to see all those crazy ingredients! Good luck, I hope you survive.
1349 Was the year Black Death or The Plague hit Norway, a band also in Norway named themselves 1349 after it, being that they play Black Metal a genre as tied to Satanic imagery as The Bible itself, it makes it all the funnier when paired with the 66,6 grams of fat.
