It likely said on the foil Ben peeled off -- regular Sterno only burns at 80*C but I imagine that for a pizza oven it would need to be higher. It does look depressingly like the same blue gel from regular Sterno, though, in which case you don't need the gadget at all.

I actually got my grandmother an electric jar opener. At first, she was annoyed because she said she never ate anything that came in jars and she wouldn’t have any use for it. Turns out she wasn’t able to open jars so she just didn’t buy anything that came in one. Two years later she now uses it on a daily basis!

It's always really nice to see someone review a gadget and understand that it's market is more for people with mobility/dexterity issues and not just say "Who needs this?

@ether4211 2 года назад

I used to own a second hand one of these egg toasters, it takes a couple of goes to adjust the water measurement to suit your taste/conditions but they are brilliant.. i used to make poached eggs on toast with wilted spinach and cheese for breakfast or lunch in 4 minutes. By the time you toast the bread, butter it and put on the cheese the egg and spinach were ready to go. You could make a perfect McDonalds style egg mcmuffin each morning, warm sausages/meats cook mushrooms, berries and cook dumplings as it doubles as a mini steamer :) i got it secondhand, used it for 4 years until it started to have trouble heating the toast and still miss it.

Vacuum sealing reusable bags and containers is a huge improvement on yet more single-use plastic that is the norm with other vacuum sealing sets!

I might look into the jar unscrewer for my mum!

I've got a similar machine and those particular bags don't last forever. Some of the ones I still have lose their seal pretty quickly as it's just a small plastic one way valve in the packet itself.

@templarw20 2 года назад

The jar opener is definitely something that is an accessibility aid that they're trying to market generally...

@GeoFitz4 2 года назад

Had this talk recently with a friend. There's a lot of objects out there that kind of get laughed at and marketed as "are you too lazy to pull your socks on?" kind of gadgets. But those items are really, really important for people that have physical limitations. Because those people are probably not enough to make manufacturing the product profitable, the companies have to do those kind of "are you too lazy" marketing schemes to sell enough.

@kenzierabbit4374 2 года назад

I actually really love to see the guys trying use some of these accessibility aid gadgets in the way that they are intended - what I mean by that is, for example with jar opener, see if they could make that same antipasti dish but without the use of their hands.

@tiacho2893 2 года назад

@@rasmusazu I used to cook for a living and remember being handed a 20 kg bag of onions and told how many prep pans of each dice size and slice thickness to do. And how you HAD to manage your time. That is the big reason for the chaos in "Pass It On". Only something like toasting pine nuts really need ALL your attention because they burn in seconds and your boss yells at you for wasting expensive ingredients. But the lads have done the food stand thing and opened that pop up in Japan. So don't write off your suggestion just yet. It would take some planning and they could do it like larger restaurants have a rotating staff meal. I think they probably do that with the short shelf life pantry stuff in each "Pass It On" (after the doing the beauty shots and B roll) but don't film it.

Watching super-smart Ben learn how to open jars is so adorable. And now that I think about it, I probably often start trying to open jars with my right hand (going the correct direction) and then switch to my left hand if it doesn't open right away (without ever consciously thinking that way gives you more leverage in that direction, but just feeling like it's easier).

I even got an attachment that lets me seal mason jars and I use those instead of the Tupperware style containers because one attachment can seal all the widemouth jars I own

They laughed at Jamie suggesting having that mini pizza oven on his desk just feeding stuff into it and snacking as it comes out but as someone who legit does that with a toaster oven it's honestly great. It forces you to take quick breaks for a minute or two assembling the next batch and take out your current one, which can help your current work from reaching burnout as quick. Does for me at least.
