Chef vs Normals HONEST Kitchen Gadgets Review! | Sorted Food 

Kush is the opposite of Ben. Ben is a 50 year old in a 30 year old body and Kush is an impish 10 year old troublemaker in the best way

Kush is trying to be serious like Ebbers, but we love his chaotic energy 😁

The speed at which Kush can weaponize the lock box is both awe inspiring and spooky

I love Kush saying he's gonna be really strict and serious, and then stealing Barry's airpods and locking them in a box

It would be fun to do a challenge with those lock boxes and throughout the challenge certain ingredients get unlocked so they have to be smart what they make and how they make it based on what's available yet during the time

I've had the large Kitchen Safe for 7 years, and love it. I actually bought the smaller one later - the large one is for biscuits or cakes, and the smaller one for nuts, crisps and similar. My problem: I can have a sealed packet of biscuits in the cupboard and not be bothered. But once I open them, I will go through the whole packet. I first got around it by not buying biscuits, chocolate and snacks, but that is miserable, especially when friends visit. The really interesting revelation was when I discovered that I didn't have to set it to 5 or 12 hours, or a day, for it to be effective. If I just set it to one or two hours, when it unlocked, I could know that biscuits were there, but they wouldn't bother me. I realised that it was the first biscuit I ate that caused me to want the second, and so on, bingeing through the pack. If I took one, locked the safe, and then ate it, I could enjoy that biscuit, and by the time the safe opened again, the urge to binge had gone. I then found I could use this practically - having a cuppa and a biscuit/cake break, then *immediately* going out into the garden to do a job or something similar. By the time I came in, I no longer wanted another biscuit. A wonderful gadget for anyone with this problem.

Kush and Barry giving off the older brother/younger brother competing vibes (especially when Kush locked Barry’s AirPods away). I love it

The big question is will Ben be able to take home the cheese curler before Baz adds it to his collection of gadgets that found their way to his house?

I have to imagine that pun-crafting ability is stated as a requirement on the Sorted job application form

I love that Kush is getting more screentime. He is quickly becoming my favorite to watch. I'd love to see him do a Chef Low Budget vs. Normal Unlimited budget battle

Kush having worked in a Michelin star restaurant is becoming like Ben having had an allotment. As in: he never mentions it. 😜

Ebbers looks COMPLETELY different with a beard. Holy cow 🐄! He went from a tiny little baby to a full grown mountain man.

Man, I still remember when Kush got onto this channel, he was all awkward and shy. Now that he's gotten used to the camera, he's an absolute chaos gremlin - it's great! Love the energy.

These puns Kush is getting into the reviews are absolute bangers 😂

8 Things I did not expect to see in this video (but did): 1. Ben Ebbrell with a beard 2. Kush reminding Barry that everything between them is a competition 3. Barry Taylor ranting about the word 'ergonomical' being overused 4. Barry Taylor washing dishes at the studio 5. Barry and Kush role-playing as mummy and baby 6. Kush locking away Barry's earphones for HOURS 7. Barry and Kush having an almost extreme reaction to the glass chopping board

God, I absolutely winced when they started chopping on that last gadget; I absolutely HATE that noise and I can absolutely see why Kush got rid of all of the glass chopping boards.

If you want to give the Girolle a special twist: They sell chocolate wheels specifically for this purpose so you have fresh chocolate shaving at the table if you want to be fancy during dessert 🍫

I love how Mike is now just casually tasting and enjoying cheese. A few years ago he would of had green colored face just by smelling some 😂

An episode on knife sharpening gadgets would be fun - there's a lot out there, and a lot of entertaining tat too. The Precision Adjust system comes to mind as a good start (for an actually decent gadget)!

Mike and cheese have reached an epiphany, he eats it without a flinch now and is actively trying it!

Those scales look perfect for weighing my cats. Big enough for them to sit on, go up to 15kg, not just 2kg like most kitchen scales I've had...

The scouring pad glove would be excellent for those who have difficulty grasping items. This enables independence in doing tasks that others take for granted by doing with ease.

Love seeing Kush getting more screen time🎉🎉🎉. Hopefully there's more to come🤞

The big scales would be useful for dough weighing and splitting, mainly when using a plastic dough scraper to split the dough. But I'm with Kush, steel knives on glass or stone is horrifying.

Love Kushs reaction to the glass cutting board. Couldnt agree more. Just the thought of cutting on that sends shivers down my spine... and im by no means a chef or even cook. Just, metal and glass, ugh

I knew what that first one was right away, I recognized it because I saw it a few months ago! I was at the local deli in my little town on the west coast of Canada, where I like to get their recommendations of what cheeses to try. They were trying to describe this gadget, when another customer heard them, got very excited, ran out to his car where he for some reason had this cheese and this gadget (I guess he carries it around with him wherever he goes?) and he brought it in and made some cheese curls for us all to try right there! It was such a random experience, seeing it again here made me smile.

Kush, once again, talks sense, while simultaneously being the funniest in the kitchen.

That cookie safe would make a fun sabotage during a cooking competition. Lock up an ingredient, their utensils, or whatever for a period of time.

I like the Kush and Barry duo. We need more of them together.

Barry petting Kush like he is a scary pet of some sort 😂😂 10s in and I'm already guffawing 😂

As a Swiss I recognized the first item immediately and I used to have one but I don't usually consume that cheese enough to keep it so I gave it back to my parents xD That said, in supermarkets here you can find shaved rosettes of the cheese prepackaged and they're super delish so there's really no need to get one :D As for the glass chopping board/scale I'm so so so glad other people find the glass surface horrible to chop on too - my mom loves those for some reason and it's always so uncomfortable using those at her place xD

Kush is a great addition to the on-screen team. And while we're at it, kudos to the off-screen teams as well. This channel produces great content.

Hold up, Kush has worked in a Michelin star restaurant? Definitely wanna hear more about that. Maybe go over some of the things they'd do there that you would never do at home

When the Ebbers away, the Normals and Food Team will play 😂

I'm really loving the fact Kush is in more of the videos lately! ❤

Just in case anyone has the problem Barry mentioned of not being able to see the weight on a samll scale when weighing with a largeish container. Get a bowl, turn it upside down and set the large container on top to weigh. It provides the space you need to see the weight.

I love seeing Mike eat cheese. Not in a weird way.

The BOSKA Cheese Curler Amigo can also be used for curling cold butter, though I use a special curved knife (bigoudi à beurre) for doing it presentation wise. But then I'm not doing huge amounts at a time. The Duramitt can also be used for for prepping large amounts of veg with papery skins like new potatoes, carrots...etc. Salter should know better. I'm with Kush on glass chopping boards, knife killers. I have some very nice knives & enjoy sharpening them well. Would never go near these scales with them. A relative gave me a glass chopping board when they first came out. I was going to toss it, but I have found a use for it. As its so shiny, anything that needs suction to stay in place, like some graters, blenders or mandolins are rock solid on it. So if the person that gifted it ever visits I still have the gift. I don't even like plastic chopping boards. As they age & get used bacteria can build up in the micro knife groves & they can be hard to clean. Certain wooden boards actually kill bacteria naturally, but it's still a good idea to clean them properly. As well as washing I regularly scrub them with course salt & lemon juice & go over with a scraper regularly.

Kush is such a great addition. Has all the knowledge you could want but he’s got that dry humour

Love the interaction between Barry and Kush! 🙂

Love seeing Kush in more videos! Will always love Ben as the Sorted chef but I feel like the dynamic with two chefs and three normals balances it out more

I love that Kush brings the pessimism that is absolutely needed

In the spirit of the late great Bob Barker, I'm loving the $25.01 from Baz!

Cant get enough of these kitchen gadgets videos

I made one of those mits about 15 years ago in University but it was more like glove and each finger and a different sponge/surface for different uses.

I just did the oatmeal “pancakes” someone suggested way back during black friday livestream. Add agg to your leftover oatmeal and fry and they were absolutelly amazing 🍽

You guys should review the Scrub Mommy from Scrub Daddy. I know it just seems like a gimmicky sponge, but I've been thoroughly impressed with both how much better it cleans AND how much longer it lasts than a normal dual sided sponge. It also seems to scratch less than a normal scouring pad.

Im with Kush on the glass chopping boards. That sounded so terrible with headphones on

The Kitchen Safe could be a good aid in giving an older child some independence in a task like taking medicine daily. It would allow for it to be kept in a more accessible location, but still be (reasonably) safe outside of a specific period. When they first showed it I thought it was a silly product, but as a tool beyond the kitchen, it actually has some useful applications.

The Kush/Baz/Mike dynamic in this video is great. A fun trio!

I was hoping for a shot in which Barry would get his pods back in a studio with the lights off and everyone have already left the building.

I just had a fantastic idea come to me about that timed lock box for a cooking challenge! Choose ingredients that have to be used but are not accessible for a certain period of time, I'm not 100% certain how it would work but it could be sort of a 'chopped' style thing where all the normals are given a chance to make a dish but they have to include the 'mystery' ingredient that unlocks after X time. Creativity badge maybe? I wanted to say this before I forgot!

You guys are the best! My days are always better with your videos lifting my spirits! Longtime fan! Your team dynamic is such a joy to watch! Your joliness always puts a smile on my face! Always look forward to more of your amazing content! I’m so proud to be a member of this community! You're all Truly awesome!

some alternate uses for a couple gadgets: The Timer tub could be used for like marinades as you can put how long on the tub rather than having to remember or set an alarm on your phone. The scales would be useful for anyone weighing a large amount for instance any kind of batch cooking, home cooking/baking business etc that requires hefty weights which a smaller one cant handle easily, totally agree its a useless chopping board but its a great scale for specific circumstances like barry shows with the cast iron pan.

hahaha the look on Kush's face when that sponge flip landed in a bowl was priceless hahahaha

Would like to see you review the "Microplane Spice Mill Black for Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Tonka beans". Its a rotary hand grinder for large spices like nutmeg & so on. It has storage inside to keep spices fresh. You can adjust the coarseness manually. I like it as I use a lot of nutmeg, but hate grating my fingertips off. This is much faster & does a better job.

My husband has the K-Safe! He uses it for his phone (and also computer mouse occasionally). Has been somewhat life changing for him. Probably should use it myself, too tbh😂

seriously loving Kushs' appearances in the videos...and his rather on point feedback

In southern germany (and switzerland, i guess) you can buy that monks-head-cheese in every supermarket and a lot of people have that shaving-tool at home, but you can also buy the cheese pre-cut at a lot of supermarkets

You gotta appreciate the raw spite it took for Kush to chop the onion and gralic on that thing. You could see him visibly cringing, but he HAD to prove his point.

You can hear Mike cracking up as he reads about the Duramitt 😆

You two are great together! Love this duo.

Kush comment on glass chopping boards made me think of a local Dutch chef who always said the only good thing you could do with them was build a little aquarium 😂

16:23 The handshake along with them just looking into each other's eye is hilarious!

A better way of solving the scale problem is to have a scale where the display is on an arm or cord that can be pulled out and placed where it remains visible. Or, like hook it up to an app, but I'd prefer a more analog solution.

We've always had one of those cheese curlers at home growing up! Tête de moine is my absolute favourite cheese ever 😍😍 but they do also sell pre-curled packages to the cheese in the supermarket in case you don't own a curler!

as soon as I saw Kush I knew this episode would be brilliant, Kush is crazy and I love it!

The glass chopping board scale thing gives me the willies. The idea of it being space saving is maximum irony.

3:41 I literally just choked on my drink laughing at that photo. High 5 to whomever photoshopped that masterpiece 😂

Great seeing Kush on camera, brings a fun but chaotic energy on screen! 😂

The stare when cutting the garlic , perfect --> 14:40

We definitely need Kush in more review videos, imagine Kush and Ben together, and even James when he's back!

Test the bay leaf theory , bc I've personally tested it and there's a huge difference between using bay leaves and not. It's def not the main flavor, but you really notice when it's not there.

You can also use it for chocolate shavings. Great video once again lads thank you

Kush is Ebber's knowledge with the Normal's general disposition. It's incredibly fun when your accomplice can back up his bullshit with technique and knowledge... Kush is the kindergarten teacher that is playing poker in the back with the kids while Ebbers is trying to corral them out front.

Boska cheese curler amigo is giving "Mojo dojo casa house" energy 😂

Love Kush’s energy. He’s such a great addition to the onscreen team. 😊

I love seeing Kush in these videos. Hopefully we can see him a bit more often!

3:40 Mountain Man Ebbers would be a hoot emerging from a cave in Scotland. 😂

I am absolutely in love with Kush! No reason, just his vibe is amazing

Either someone on the team is great with Photoshop or Ben grew a beard without any of us noticing. 👀

Kush is such a good dynamic in the boys. Have loved seeing him in more and more!

Having used glass cutting board for more than 20 years and i don't want anything else, i love them

Ebbers could play Grizzly Adams in the remake 😂

Kid: Can I have a cookie? Parent: In 30 minutes. 30 minutes later: pops open and kid empties it out. That's what I would have done. Very dumb invention.

This episode was the Gadget Discourse we were waiting for. MORE BARRY-CHEF KUSH CHAOS PLZ

Kush was such a good addition to the team. Just the right spice to balance the dish. I love all of the original boys including James, and Kush kinda feels like he has always been there.

Tete de Moine is a fairly normal cheese to eat here in Switzerland :) You can buy the florets packaged or some people have the tool you got at home and buy the whole cheese to do it themselves (I have one too, so it's not that unique if you're a cheese lover :)). Also that cheese is not that expensive here in Switzerland ;) the florets packaged up are fairly expensive in comparison but it's just more convenient for most people than having this giant thing in your fridge unless it's like for a brunch or something :)

It's so funny to me that the girolle is in a gadgets video. as a swiss person, growing up it was just normal to have a girolle in the house. Like having a wine opener, a peeler or a garlic press. I also had to smile when Baz said "cause it's sold in the posh shops" - you can get it in every supermarket/groccery store here

Not gonna lie, Kush locking away Barry’s AirPods is the most I’ve laughed at a sorted vid in ages. Some quality shenanigans there.

I laughed outloud at these chopping scales. That clinking - omg, thank you, Kush. I recently bought a glass chopping board (a set of three was the cheapest), but it's not for cooking, it's for some crafts where at times I need and acrylic glass board because my glue doesn't stick to it, and other times glass board for a precise sliding cut.

Barry's love 2 hate journey with the washing mitt is great.

I wish *my* AirPods had been locked away for 5 hours before Kush started going to town on that onion. 😂😂 Point taken chef!

Kush is just so much crazy fun, love the crazy madman! Good to see more of him.

The cheese curler is also regularly found at Dutch secondhand stores for cheap since it was in a lot of company Christmas gift boxes a couple of years ago 😂

Mike doing his best Rod Roddy ("The Price Is Right") impression. "This cheese shaver could be yours... if the price is right!"

For the lockable cookie jar... "This is the lockpicking lawyer...."

I would absolutely love to hear about Kush's time in the restaurant!

I'm giving you ALL the likes! What a new dynamic duo 🎉

Kush's little flick of the sponge into the bowl at 00:08:04 is too underrated for me!
