It’s not. I worked in an assembly line and when it’s properly staffed, it doesn’t hurt the soul at all. You do your time, leave, and live your life. It doesn’t define you. What is soup crushing is when shit goes wrong and you have a stupid manager. I was accused of stealing. I did not steal. I left the line because that accusation was soul crushing. Being frisked in front of my friends when nothing was taken (and nothing was found on me) hurt. And here is the kicker - I was accused of stealing an apple. One apple. Not money or parts. One apple in a food processing facility.
Whenever I hate my job I watch How it's Made on RU-vid. Then I feel better about the fact Im not forced to stand there and squirt sauce in a tub or arrange noodles in a tub or shovel burnt pizza crusts in a hopper.
The quick freezing process ensures that the ice crystals that form in the food are as small as possible, so that they don't destroy the structure of the food on thawing. Slower freezing allows the formation of larger ice crystals.

Amy’s closed the manufacturing facility where I live rather than allow the employees to unionize. They don’t care about their workers’ quality of life.
Wow I just looked up the laws on this and it’s completely legal for them to close for any reason including anti-unionization! That’s terrible and immoral - can’t say I’m in shock though because America doesn’t care about the workers that make up these huge corporations. Absolutely horrific! I send prayer to anyone going through hardship due to a corporations lack of empathy and morals!
And then going home knowing you make disgusting sludge not fit for a dog. That's your contribution to the world and then you die alone in an old folks storage facility.
Same!!!!! I grew up eating my mom’s recipe and I think it’s worth the effort to make from scratch, because every component has flavor. I love putting so much cheese as the “crust”
I kind of wish my dad would let us go a step or more up on the Cox lineup but maybe better if I don't need to add extra of my own funds though I miss some extra channels such as premium types and even a DVR. I can't recall which other few shows I'd try out on Sci besides "How It's Made" (I think there's also a "How'd They Do That?" but I could be wrong on the title of it and wish I saw more. I only remembered how got to see for the first time how the heck katsuobushi got created and is made😶)
It's obviously because machines need things to be standardised and predictable to work well - the sheets of lasagna would be difficult to work with (slippery and uneven - you can see some sheets are broken). Here, there would be no point in having a specialised machine, since you'd still need people to put things in the tray slowing the process down.
why in the world would you not automate virtually the entire process? You cannot tell me that fitting noodle sheets into a box or spreading crumbs on something is beyond simple engineering
if you watch the ladies putting in the pasta strips - you can see that they are only about 50% of the time full, the rest of the time - theyre having to play puzzle games and put in 2 strips or whatever matches the size of the hole. Plus - picking up wet sheets of pasta requires a very delicate touch. The cost - right now - to visually automate how to piece together broken pasta, and then grip it successfully, lay it down right, all without breaking it, in under 2 seconds, is a HUGE ask of an automation process. But like the person below says - if costs of labor keep rising, someone will figure it out.
@@JasminUwU Wrong. Companies are always trying to make MORE money. They're not stopping investment in automation out of the kindness of their hearts, all companies want to decrease labor costs and increase profits. It has never been the opposite. Increasing minimum wage is a very good stopgap measure to make sure that workers are better compensated in the meantime.
The picture on the box is different than the reality, but Amy's lasagna is actually very good albeit too expensive for what you get. Reading the packaging, one might think this was made by hand in a small village in Tuscany using no machinery whatsoever.
I don’t understand why Americans call pasta “noodles”. Even the term noodle surely invokes an image of a curly spiral. Noodles are thin long and curly and ASIAN. Lasagne sheets are NOT NOODLES
3:36 first of all. 4 people using 4 hands in total. Very efficient. And the second issue is Dont call them sous chef for sprinkling dry pizza onto something
Yeah and I wanna know who then is pumping the tomato sauce at the beginning of the line because they showed that was her job earlier. Are a bunch of them just not getting sauced now because she decided she wanted to switch to sous chef mid-filming?
This made me think of the time I found a 2-foot long black hair in a frozen meal by Saffron Road. I nearly threw up and it was years before I could buy that brand again. Sometimes more automation is better.
I used to buy these all the time until there was a product recall due to metal particles having got into the batches... Wonder what happened to cause that
Calling that thing Lasagna is an insult to Italian cuisine! :D They could have been a little more careful knowing that there was a camera filming, using full pieces of pasta, putting more filling, or showing at least a minimum of enthusiasm.
Calling that thing lasagna is an insult in all front. They make bechamel with rice flour and add cheese, they use mozzarella and not Parmigiano or Grana padano. If you are a factory you can even use parmesan... Even adding pizza crumbs on top is not what we make, thats have another name: pasta gratinata. As an Italian, watching this, I'm in the middle of wanting to puke and sue this company for using "lasagna" as name their products
i liked the part where a machine unloaded boxes but a lady had to push the lasagna into them like she was a machine, probably making machine noises as she does it
@@alifabiansyah7217 since it’s not in an oven it’ll be a bit softer vs being baked whereas in the oven it’ll toughen the tops and bottom. Still good either way
Amy’s recipe - throw random ingredients in a pile, cover in a pound of salt. I’ve never had anything from this company that isn’t disgustingly salty. Stauffers has a delicious veggie lasagna.
I can`t have lasagna now without thinking of Peter Capaldi`s line "Don`t be lasagna" in Doctor Who. Referring to microwave lasagnas and their exploding when heated without being pricked! I know no one asked but I love that line!!
@tzn, hello, these people HAVE jobs and probably benefits! Automation takes the jobs and reduces the benefits and puts the payment of those reduced benefits on the rest of us, you nitwit!!
They would have automated those jobs a long time ago if it would save costs. I can understand that some recipes are harder to automate, but automating a packaging line is very common...
How is this sad? These people chose this job. Automation would literally take their jobs away. Good for this company for keeping jobs open. Haven't you seen Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?
Any frozen microwaveable meal that has more than 3 ingredients always looks pretty nasty. I've tried this actual lasagna though and it's not as bad as it looks.
I work for a company that processes and packages mushrooms. What's disgusting is the lack of face masks on their packing line workers before it's sealed.
Your comment makes no sense. You don't know the batch size of the sauces, and therefore don't know the sodium percentage. For the uninitiated, sodium is not the preservative in this case, it it for flavour. Sodium + oil + carbs equals flavour. Sodium content is mostly consumer driven, ie. low sodium = poor sales. If you want control over these factors, make it yourself; home-made is far superior anyhow.
soon we'll just make it once and upload it to the replicator database, then you just say 'computer, lasagna, veggie, hot' and it comes out of the machine for you
