I dunno, for me it's not as much the sometimes useful tips, it's the "Come closer" that makes it feel like I have a congenial friend who trusts me with all his random secrets.
Almost all his fast food tips are a lie and I tested what he said out and it doesn't work. What he doesn't tell you is that the red stains he has was just put in and didn't have time to be dry or a stain so it would've probably come off with just water. I like the guy he's cool just some of the things he said was mostly tall tails. I worked a lot of fast food so I can easily dispute those with the fact several people came in and tried the tricks just to be turned down. The only real one was how you could fill up a box with nuggets at Wendy's but its literally on the menu as a family box of 50 nuggets
@Grace something You know how many containers lost their lives ((trashed) because they held on to those stains😢. RIP storage buddies. 😢 ...be nice if a disclaimer was on the backaging.
@@minhmeo5010 so smart u are.. many people record in the kitchen there are almost portable mirrors 🪞 I have one that lights up so it wouldn’t be weird to record in the kitchen
@@MrJoedog55 u sound dumb yes I do spend a lot of time in the kitchen since I cook every night of the week u really sound pressed over a simple comment
Butter is fat. Since that lycopen is hydrophobic, but not lipophobic (lipo meaning fat, hydro meaning - and get this... water), the lycopen will mix well with the butter. Now here's the kicker: Dish soap works by having one molecule on one end that can connect with water molecules, and one molecule on another that can grab onto fat molecules. Basically, dish soap can duct tape water and fat together. Add the water to make the dish soap functional, and the paper towel for some added physical agitation. Boom, stains gone.
😢I can’t explain why I feel emotional and played about not having an grandma, Mom, aunt , uncle , coworker ., No One in my Life has told me this ..! I been accustomed to thinking “ the containers 2/$1.25 … just throw them away after ya store red gravy / tomato sauce in them ! Duh ., 😮 # FML
I know what's going to happen. He's going to get hooked on one type of fish and in 2 years it's going to be all fish all the time and his former friends will speak of him wistfully and wish him well.
@@veronicaredeemed Dishwashers are mostly crap in my experience anyhow. You need to wash the dishes afterwards. Especially pots and pans with gunk all over the inside. Coming from the Caribbean (Trinidad) I didn't grow up with a dishwasher. A dishwasher is really only good with mild grease and grime. Anything more you're rolling the dice on how clean they MIGHT get your dishes.
Could be worse. You could have some ascended ancient alien who is hyper intelligent but doesn’t understand how to communicate properly and act human become obsessed with you and have a crush on you….
@@Essashe girl, one? lmfao, don't look deeper. Also tho, daddy long legs are highly encouraged. They're like a spider predator plus cannot bite you, have predictable habits and habitats. They eat any random other bugs as well. They're also not one of the small spiders you think are innocuous until you sit down to pee, look up, and see your entire fucking ceiling covered in literal hundreds of babies. Daddy long legs also help protect you from mosquitos but also black widows and brown recluses. As someone who recently dealt with a fucking colony of black widows and egg sacs, learn your friendly cohabitants before you end up panicking at 3 am and take your cat outside with you and get someone to find Raid somewhere still open, drive from one suburb through the city to the complete other side, and they have to go in for you and take care of shit with chemicals. 10 years later, I'm still not okay. Getcha self some good deterrents that are natural and consider embracing some that make your life easier without you even knowing. ALWAYS CHECK YOUR BUILT-IN BATHROOM FANS. Alarms too, they get creative. random but if sugar ants are an issue regardless of your cleanliness, find the trails. the trails are like a signal, so if the ones outside your windows or whatever are not scrubbed in tandem with ant traps or even a line of coffee grounds (it expands internally... and they're naturally attracted to it. .. point is you're not cursed with them forever. Maintenance after the big purge is super low. It's also something you can likely fix for under 10$ depending on cost of traps & cleaning supplies. lastly, gnats or houseplant bs, even growing your own herbs. It's best to use cinnamon on top of the soil to prevent that. Your plants are not harmed by it generally. It smells delightful as well. Also, water from the bottom if you can. It tends also to keep pests away. I haven't taken my adhd meds lately bc timing has been off so sorry for the rambling- you might find something useful? idk.
I assume he knows to close the lid if he has access to the data from fast food restaurants, and the distance at which contamination can take place due to particulate 'plumes'.
Because the molecule of lycopene is hydrophobic, you need to use a fatty substance (hence the butter). You could use soap, but most soaps are made with a high water content so they dont work. The paper towel just acts like a cloth being rubbed around the tub. Ive used butter to clean my containers for years. Fun fact: lycopene is found in red fruits and vegetables, like tomatoes :)
Most "soaps" these days are actually detergents so they don't have the classic soap structure of oil/butter tail with a hydrophilic head! If you use an actual soap and hot water for very greasy things like that it can work better 😊
I have to freaking use this hack tonight! Husband finished the leftover spaghetti and the container is more orange than the Lorax. Can't wait to see it work!
@@reishad598 It did work surprisingly well! Unfortunately, the husband overcooked the spaghetti, and some of the sauce worked its way into little melted bits of plastic in the middle of some of the sides. Ugh. But the rest of the dish came out almost grease free!
@Shukochan yeah, foods containing even a little oil or fat are best not heated in plastic, because it can overheat the container and cause little melting spots. I keep large mugs or bowls for putting a single serving of those foods for reheating. It protects the plastic containers. Thus is true for items containing sugar as well.
Yep. Just went over the hill myself last year. Funny thing is, a couple of these videos I showed my mom and she was like “oh yeah I knew about that” and I asked her “well why didn’t you teach me?” And she said it was just one of those things you don’t think to specifically teach or pass down, you just do it and typically we do what we see, but sometimes we miss things like context or reasons we do stuff. Which is one reason a lot of people just use a fitted sheet, blanket and no pillow case. I didn’t know that was a thing until when I was in the army as an instructor for a leadership academy, where students stayed for a few weeks, and we issued them bedding, and l of them just kept the top sheet aside and never used it, because they don’t seem to know the pillow case and top sheet are designed to keep the pillow and blanket clean, because you shouldn’t wash them frequently, so they last longer, so you wash the sheet and case instead, let those get dirty the. Wash them and avoid washing blanket and pillow. Same reason we wear socks is to protect the shoe, change your socks to keep the inside cleaner. So many things we did one way, and people stopped doing them the correct way because in their mind they didn’t understand te point of an extra step or to that seemed to have no purpose.
Why use expensive butter? Do you know what also works? 30 seconds with an SOS pad. Infinitely cheaper than using expensive butter. Cleans off the stains and my plastic containers are like new.
take 2tbsp baking soda, a tbsp of dawn dishsoap, and a splash of vinegar. Mix these in the affected tupperware/plastic dish, coat all surface area, let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse with hot water. STAINS ARE GONE.
He's just slowly working his way down some magical list, answering questions and solving problems. I was mildly panicked that I couldn't get my MIL's Tupperware she'd sent us home with. She's not mean; she's kind/understanding. So I extra don't want to mess up her stuff or disappoint her. Thank you for solving a major concern of mine!!! ❤❤🎉🎉
Lycopene is lipophilic meaning it is, in layman's terms, attracted to lipids (oils and fats). It is a lipid soluble molecule and thats what causes this to happen. The lycopene molecules are attracted and basically stick to the butter. -This comment is if anyone wanted the "WHY?" behind this. Lycopene is a hydrophobic (water hating) lipophilic (lipid loving) molecule :) This isn't 100% technical but again, layman's terms :)
But isn't the SOAP supposed to do that? That's why soap is sometimes made outta fat. Isn't modern soap also covalent and not ionic like tap water so that the stain sticks to the soap? Isn't that what the soap is for? WHY THE FUCK DO I BUY SOAP!!!!?? Ok, I'm okay. Breathe. I'm ok. Why the soap?
@@oab68you are correct my friend, soap is supposed to dissolve these things and even make oil and water mixable That's also probably why the video he's replying to worked But I'm guessing like how washing dishes is easier if you soak them in water first to just dissolve and break down the food, adding butter in this case makes it easier to dissolve all the solids at the edges so they are carried in a more fluid substance which can be more easily washed out. The soap is still doing its soapy business by removing the butter that's now dragging the previously dried out solid browning with it Also since soap is used with bare hands and dish soap bars are already much harsher on hands than hand-wash soap, there is a limit to how "good" they can be made
I’m 35… and I have never needed to learn something so badly. I’m ashamed that I never thought to try and figure this problem out. Thank you Jordan for being the real teacher we all needed lol ❤
Genius!!!! Thank you!!! Ive done this by accident(used the stained dish later after washing it - for buttered noodles leftover.... Noticed after washing it after using it for butter noodles the stains were gone! ) 😅it makes sense now! But at the time i didnt put 2 and 2 together!!! 🎉thanks!!
??? Yes kuz most shorts just say "hey do this" and end by the video as fast as possible rather than maximizing watch time by adding a clip from another video at the beginning, telling everyone they're stupid and why, going over the process 2-3 times, then actually showing the process and going over it again in the video while actually showing itz and then trying to loop the video as seamlessly as possible so you watch it again for watch time. They definitely DONT do all that, because they just hate watch time, the damned cowards!!; They would have just said something like "No, just use butter!" And instantly ended the video in 2 seconds. So it's good that Jordan does all these things for watch time kuz if he didn't who would??! Y'know besides the millions of other people that definitely would 100% of the time. But you get what I mean though right?
@@jaydubbzit3551it's a one minute clip which adds validity to the claim (it's the internet, stay skeptical). If an extra 30 seconds in a video is too long to keep your attention, it's going to be difficult to learn anything at more than a surface level understanding. Honestly I wish it was longer, because it seems like the information as presented is still too summarized to be complete. It seems like his example used a freshly stained container, complete with food debris. Would be interested to know if this also works on previously weeks old red stains. Him doing the clip and shortening to 30 seconds would save me entire minutes of experimentation and probably 25 cents worth of butter.
This man is the hero we needed, but don't deserve. Keep up the amazing work man and please let us know if the fast food mafia or the iluminati is coming for you, we got you homie.
What works for me to avoid the stain completely is similar -- I spray a light layer of cooking oil on the inside of the container before I store the food in it. It rinses right back off, and no stain ever happened even if you heated it 😊
@@liviestar365 sure does, I use this trick most when I am doing my frozen meal prep for the freezer. This is just my opinion but I feel like it actually comes out of the container after freezing easier too than it would otherwise.
At this point, I’m sure Jordan’s family doesn’t even bother asking questions when they see him do weird stuff…like take Tupperware and a stick of butter into the bathroom.😂❤
Man, the number of cuts in a process that should ostensibly have only taken seconds was sus enough. Then I remembered I could never get the egg trick to work either
Oh and foil Glass bowls and foil They even have glass Tupperware Or just store it in a pot with a lid.....or a zip lock bag. U can store it in a zip loc bag and freeze it
Cooking spray or any oil will work as well! I learned this after becoming desperate when my KitchenAid shredder attachment was stained with a shockingly even coat of orange after shredding several carrots for banana carrot muffins. It went through the dishwasher and was hand washed with soap and nothing moved. Consulted the internet and covered in cooking spray, waited about a minute, and it just wiped off so easily.

I legit read your comment, and laughed and said out loud "this person just said noble prize! 😂, dumbass can't spell" turns out I was talking about myself lol
To prevent this from even happening, spray the entire tupperware container with cooking spray (Pam etc.. I use coconut spray which works just as well) before putting pasta sauce or anything else that stains. The tupperware won't get stained at all. You have to coat it well though.
@@TheSuspira I'm not listening to either of y'all man id rather do the butter trick instead of buying new containers. Ive had these plastic ones for 10 years and i ain't getting new ones until nessesary.
take 2tbsp baking soda, a tbsp of dawn dishsoap, and a splash of vinegar. Mix these in the affected tupperware/plastic dish, coat all surface area, let sit for 15 minutes. Rinse with hot water. STAINS ARE GONE.
To prevent the stains, don't microwave tomatoe-based dishes in tupperware. You'll also extend the life of your plastic containers if you refrain from microwaving them at all.
We are Indian. We re-use even the thinnest plastic tubs like a minimum of 3 times and a maximum of fifteen times. They will be so stained and sometimes even slightly warped I am questioning my family if it's okay to microwave them. But they don't care! Jordan has taught me what every adult in my family said "it's impossible" to do. Make our giant plastic tub collection CLEAN
Noted and sent to every friend, family member, acquaintance, half my graduating class from the 90s, and half my exes! The other half deserves to live with stained plasticware. 🤣
You have reminded me of the time that my poor kitty got stuck in a fly tape! That was some fun googling. We used olive oil to remove the stickiness, and then blue dawn dish soap to remove the oil. My cat would like it to be known that it was a terrible experience that just kept getting worse 😂
You have saved all my country crock containers I inherited from my grandmother. Thanks! No but seriously this drives me nuts. Thanks for helping my OCD. This will seriously help me sleep better.
Yesss this definitely works, been doing it a long time. Works without the butter too, but if it's older more stuck on stains definitely use the butter too.
