That first one tho. 🤦🏽‍♀️ As a person who had to battle with food insecurity in my youth, these wasteful and deliberately disgusting recipes drive me absolutely crazy. That literally could’ve been either a perfectly good tuna casserole or a nice baked mac and cheese that could’ve fed an entire family, but instead she decided to combine the two and create a monstrosity that fed literally no one. Just. Ughh. I can’t.

Any recipes that include just tossing a full block of cheese in cannot be trusted

When you were spooning up the tuna casserole I got an ad for cat food that looked shockingly similar

Tiktok needs to learn how to just make a roux and cook in a Dutch oven

My stomach actually groaned when you ate the tuna casserole. Not even kidding.

i literally got chills when you lifted that scoop of “casserole” out the pan 💀

Like some of the others have said, there's nothing wrong with a cheesy tuna-noodle casserole, if well made. It was quite a while ago that I learned how to make bechamel and derivatives, so no more need to dump in gloppy canned soup. A white sauce with the cheese melted in, mixed with tuna (I like peas too). Nothing wrong there.

Would love to you see pick some of the worst recipes you've tried & attempt to make them better. That casserole can be one you try to make edible :)

I think the burger and/or shredded chicken pastry rolls would be fantastic as appetizer-sized morsels. Micro Burger Wellingtons. It can't not work.

The ratio of cheese to tuna is kind of hilarious.

the more tiktok recipes I see David make (i dont use tiktok) the more it just seems like they're going through early 2010's youtube era with stuff like epicmealtime

I get so excited when you post, really helped right now. My brother just passed and when I saw your video, it’s been one of the only happy moments I had in the last week. Appreciate and love you♥️

The burger and chicken roll up kind of reminds me of this super old fashioned recipe called roly-poly pudding. Essentially dough with things like bacon and mushrooms in it, rolled into a log, boiled and then cut up to fry.

Dear sweet cheesus cheese. What did the goldfish do to you? 🤣🤣 Tuna casserole in itself isn't awful lol

David testing TikTok recipes that might kill him: *A small price to pay, for salvation* Cheeseburger and chicken rollup...yeah uh, I'm gonna stick to my childhood Fruit Rollups, thank you very much

RIP to your camera. You do amazing videos. Don’t let a bad streak bother you. Without bad streaks you’ll never recognize the good ones.

I don't know. There's something just gross to me about putting raw meat on puff pastry. It just seems wrong, but I've never tried it.

Shaba kitchen, heh I tried one of the recipes on there since it legit looked decent (was some egg bites basically) and as I was making it I noticed mine didn't hold form like hers for whatever reason, that leads me to believe a lot of these recipes not only suck but are edited in ways to omit things.

Without watching the story I can already tell the moral of the story: TikTok sucks and I'm happy not watching it and doing actual cooking instead.

The first one should be ILLEGAL

The second recipe did totally look a lot tastier when Seymour made it than it did in the tiktok xD it was much less flat and mushy looking.

When I saw the first recipe, I was thinking I would swap out the tuna for chicken and cook the onions a bit to at least make it somewhat edible. Not that I would ever make that recipe haha.

My mom would use canned sweet peas in that, the sweet pea fish cheese is so rough. I can never untaste that.

The original helix ad footage: the gift that keep on giving

The tuna noodle casserole my mom makes is like that but without any Velveeta or goldfish and you mix everything with the noodles uncooked and the soup cooks the noodles but they aren't mushy It is super cheesy tho

That first one made me shudder and I make bizarre foods just to push my own boundaries.

Hope you feel better soon David, I did enjoy the video very much so good job!

The tuna casserole is very similar to the ones I grew up eating...only we had way less cheese & would only sprinkle some on the top. Then I would load it up with white vinegar when eating it. Also eating it with a buttered saltine....tastes like home. So good!

Omg … I ❤️ the sarcastic chef who reacts. I think he has only hated one recipe-a savory one-that I’ve watched, and is partial to baked goods. I am so glad he showed up in my feed, like SF author Patrick F Johnson, who takes dry to a new level. If he writes like his TikToks, he should be an entertaining read.

I’m obsessed with your content, never will miss a video 🙌🏻🙌🏻

I’m having really bad anxiety and your fun videos always make me feel better so thank u

I have a recipie I make often that is mixing a can of mushroom soup, tuna, pasta, sweetcorn and half a block of grated cheese. I mix it and cook for 20 mins, it's amazing and I make it like once a month.

Ive never commented on one of your videos but I love your videos so much im now a college senior and I’ve been watching you since I was around a sophomore in hs. Thanks for making some of my favorite video and just bring endless joy

It makes my absolute day when I see you post 😁 sending you love and well wishes from London 🇬🇧

I admire your commitment to trying these abominations. Cheers from the country of Poland :D

I've definitely made a variation of the cheeseburger roll before! It was a staple at family friends parties, although ours was more ham and cheese rolls

I’m sorry you’re struggling, it seems to be in the air lately. You make great videos that many look forward to. Keep your head up ❤️

Bless your heart for trying all of these

I would definetly try the second one. the burger roll looks good. It reminds me of a big mac. so I would leave of the mustard and add some shredded iceberg lettuce! yeah I might just make this.

My family's tuna casserole is the bomb. No weird mushroom can be needed. Ingredients: -2 cups Pasta -1 Onion, diced -3 Garlic cloves, minced - 1/2 tablespoon Paprika - Salt and Pepper to taste - 2 tablespoons Tomato Paste -Calda de Pimenta (as much or as little as you want, it is for spice. I add a full tablespoon) -Olive oil for sauteing. -1 cup veggie stock -2 tuna can (Or even better, fresh Tuna or Bonito that has been grilled previously) Step 1: Cook pasta according to instructions Step 2: Put olive oil in a pan and saute the onions until golden. Heat should be on medium. Step 3: Add minced Garlic. Cook for 3 minutes. Step 4: Put tomato paste, paprika, salt, pepper, and veggie stock, but most importantly the Calda de Pimenta. If you can't find one at your local market, check a South European or South American market. Once all mixed, add the tunas. Step 5: Let the mixture start simmering, once it does simmer for around 15 minutes or until the sauce is at medium thick consistency take it off the heat and mix it with your pasta. Step 6: Put it in a casserole dish evenly, and distribute a layer of shredded mozzarella or cheddar or Havarti cheese on top. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes. Step 7: Eat.

My gf actually made a bbq chicken pizza version of the last one a couple times. Was really good!

You know, I was exactly the person you talked about before the tuna one. I have a tuna noodle casserole that's great. Has peas, cheese, no cream of mushroom though, I like the more pure flavor. I also do mac and cheese with tuna and peas. But that thing was a waste of food, it's obscene and not in a good way.

We made a tuna noodle casserole when I was growing up. No velveta or goldfish and a lot less cheese but otherwise the same. Blanched pasta, tossed in cream of mushroom, tuna and top with cheese.

the preparation destroyed the puff on the "savory cinnamon rolls" but i've made homemade puff before and put in pesto, bacon bits, and parmagiano reggiano and baked it all off and holy shit was it incredible. you REALLY need to chill it in tube form before cutting. that, and honestly the recipe i used had the ingredients for croissant dough with the butter lamination being the full puff method, so there was yeast. left to rise, you really get that fluffy gorgeous bake in the middle with a strong crispy flaky exterior. seriously, worth every second of prep. i've made it multiple times

Hi David, New subscriber, love the vids! Even though this one was put up almost a year ago, I just wanted to share a quick tip with tuna casserole. Try using albacore tuna next time you make it, rather than the usual, cheaper skipjack tuna on the grocery shelves. When I first started making tuna casserole about 10 years ago I'd get so frustrated at how strong the fish flavour was. I tried everything I could think of to lesson the blow but it never worked. Finally I gave up. However, I recently decided to try it again and asked for advice about the flavour on one of my Facebook cooking groups. The advice across the board was to use albacore tuna as it has a MUCH milder flavour to it. So I gave it a shot and OH MY GOD! I had no idea how delicious tuna casserole can be! It's a total game changer 😊

Another amazing video, love ya david

This was cute! (Requisite old people post) Back in the 90's when my sister was shilling Pampered Chef goodies we used to prep sandwich rings with puff pastry and biscuit dough that were hella tasty. Your second test reminded me of those. I would have cooked the beef first tho. Old ppl shizz.) Sorry about your camera.

always wondered why make such large portions of stuff you know will be ass lol

Okay we need more of these please

As a Belgian: does no one over there learn how to make a simple bechamel

The first one looked like they were making a cheese dip for a party, and then told it needed to be a casserole and found leftover stuff in the cupboard

the way i was just binging ur videos last night while high lmao thank you for the upload 💕💗

Hope you feel better soon David!!!

Same about being the Trenches. It's been rough 😞

Yeah, my family has a tetrazzini recipe w/ cream of mushroom soup and plenty of cheese, but that tuna thing was a plate of congealed cheese. Ugh. You are a braver man than me.

Sorry about the camera, but props to you for finishing the video. Honestly, even though you mentioned the cameratastrophe I couldn't see a difference, as your production value is always top notch 💯

sorry youve been down in the dumps lately David. Sending you nothing by love and positive vibes. Hope for your next video you can do something that brings you joy❤❤❤

I have sadly not heard of chef reactions till now but I agree wholeheartedly that his style is right up my alley, kinda reminds me of steven wrights very deadpan delivery that just adds to the comedy

The burger rolls- can be made as buns, too… like a dumpling wrapped in bread dough. It’s a lot easier to cook, to eat. They’re even sort of portable.

Ah, so I'm not the only one having a terrible week lol great video, the sandwich looks like something I'll try!

LOL @ the sponsor transition. Oh David...😄

Thank god you got the healthy request cream of mushroom. That extra sodium woulda put you over the edge.

That first 'recipe' genuinely activated my fight or flight response. Actually cursed recipe.

Sorry you have been having a rough time. I will pray for you. Take care of yourself.

"I would still try both of them because I'm a piece of shit" is such a fuckin mood

The cheeseburger rolls reminds me of that Big Mac Wellington video, both the OG and the video you did about it. Chaotic, a bit much, sure... but like, it all just sounds really good ngl

We use Cream of Mushroom soup for making No-Peek chicken. Simple casserole.

The first recipe is GOLD! I like soft noodles lots of cheese and not much veggies. I’ve never eaten something and said “that tastes fatty”. I can’t comprehend the dislike of the cheese. If you eat for health I feel bad for you son.

That second recipe is a variation of something I make all the time. I do it with deli meat or with pizza filling

I've been watching your videos for years now and as expected, this one has been great too!! I was wondering though if you're open to using half of the recipe in future videos? Especially the ones where you try these horrendous tiktok ones since most of the food is inedible and it can be really triggering to see that much food waste!! I hope you have a great day ahead of you! 🌟

Well I just finished that amazing video I did kind of expect it to end with David having heart failure but he keeps fighting

Really good video, new sub!

I grew up rarely getting the opportunity to eat cheeseburger rollups. They're so freaking good Tho for ours, you take Pillsbury crescent rolls dough from the can, unfold it and top it with cooked gounfd beef, diced onions, bacon, and cheese, then bake.

When I saw the mushrooms, it was done for me. 😄 I cannot even smell cooked or fried mushrooms without feeling sick, since around two years. I don't know why. But the rools look interesting. Like something you do for fun with your child at their birthday or when they finish a year in school. 🙃

I'd precook the beef for the rollup but I'd try it too. Doesn't look terrible

for the second recipe, I think I will just wrap the filling in a tortilla and makes everything easy. Also avoid mushy pastry and excessive calories

Aunt Myrna's Party Cheese Salad now has a competition.

Me and my partner like to watch your videos together, and we both agree: That first one is VILE

Here in Australia they sell more or less the same thing as the 2nd recipe at butchers you just have to cook them.

In the Midwest, we call that “hot dish” and eat it on Sunday after church

The second recipe - They are just larger versions of pinwheels. Lol

omg i havent seen your videos on my feed in EONS. nice to hear your cadence again.

the second recipe reminds me of an Epic Meal Time throwback

Sorry you're struggling, sending internet love and support. Hang in there!!!

That first one sounds quite nice, might compare to my pbj on top of a cheese pizza

My mom just makes a box of Mac n cheese mixes in a can of cream of mushroom, peas, and tuna 😋

The 2nd one looked good af

This channel deserves much more subscribers 😭 Fcking great 🎯 Cheers from San Diego California

The pain in your voice describing the camera situation I feel so bad lmaoo 😩😩😩

I want to try to and make the second recipe, but only the chicken and bacon one.

The segue to that sponsorship was beautiful

Oh, it ended so quickly. We want more David! 😁❤️

Thank you for putting your bank, body, time and mind through all this lmao

The cheeseburger rolls remind me of something we have in Australia called pinwheels with meat and cheese rolled into puff pastry. A lot of butchers sell them. My fav is chicken and spinach with brie.

By watching this video I won't be able to go to the toilet for a week, thank you very much

I'm soso sorry about your camera :/ happened to me once with my super expensive DSLR, and my heart dropped when it happened.

As a half Swede half Turk, that valveeta concoction looks like satan on a sheet

I grew up on tuna casserole. So I was a little offended when you said get rid of the tuna 😆
