Jell-O Cake, Nuka Cola & Cram from Fallout | Binging with Babish 

im glad he didnt make Aspic.

It's supposed to be a poke cake, you can see the streaks of jello running through the cake in the show. Molds were super popular in the 50s, but Jell-O made the recipe for the cake in the 1970s.

It's the tip of the iceberg. Popular magazines at the time would publish recipes that involved putting spam in the jello.

Throw some pineapple in there and you got a 50s cookbook cover

@@Manahyde legend has it that some of these recipes are still made and served in some family gatherings to this day

Because its 50's americana and everything was jello back then. Also shelf stable so great for a nuclear bunker.

When your only options are spam and canned things I too would choose jello cake

It's one of those Vault Tech experiments, see how long it takes for people to go insane having half of their meals be jello cake.

Where are they getting all of the gelatin? 🤔

Uranium glass actually isn't that hard to find, and can be bought fairly cheaply. I myself have a couple uranium glass cups!

What's a flex about it? It is cheap and easy to find.

@@freighter1097 well i didnt know it was that easy to find, but still a weird flex lol

There's a company called Fiesta that still exists today, whose first few batches of glassware were pretty much all laced with uranium. If you look up "Old Fiestaware" you can still find these out there.

In my mind when I hear uranium I immediately think radiation poisoning so I’m just like amazed by the concept of putting it in a glass cup to drink out of???? I guess it’s like putting charcoal in foods but still not exactly edible idk

Maybe if you put down a layer of powdered sugar or something first? Something that will stick to the jello and give the frosting something to grip, but that won't change the flavor too much.

Ironically, the one most hazardous to people is going to be that last one.

You can actually glue it with actual (edible) glue made from starch and gelatin

@@sylvirgiomanach1491 His frosting was lard; it won't stick to anything.

A six pack of Quantum would stop an elephant

That sounds like Dr.pepper hahaha

Can't forget the "Safe for human consumption" amount of Strontium-90

It originally had passion fruit, but the Great Passion Fruit Famine of 2044 forced it out of the recipe. People could tell. (at least according to Sierra Petrovita in Fallout 3.)

@@SimuLordyea but it was added back into the formula later.

it folds!

I’d like to see it WIGGLE WIGGLE

I got spurs, that jiggle jiggle jiggle

@@GhostchickieFor sure. Ridin in a Fiat, you really gotta see it.

A Cake, that jiggle-jaggle-jiggles

Like Food Paste! but with less "Pink-Jaundice inducing hard drugs" and more "perfected insulation from microbes".

Then any wastelander who reuses the tin just hastily scratches out "probably" above the "non-human" part.

In an irradiated apocalyptic hellscape, non-human protein is a real luxury.

@@gabbonoo Try 'perfected hostile environment to microbes'

I embrace this future

I dont think Ive seen any accurate recipes for nukacola even the official cookbook recicpe doesnt seem like it would actually make nukacola

@@Frankoman64 The FDA would likely take a dim view on adding radioactive materials to food products, so I doubt you will, either.

@@hrodgathat’s just Quantum. Radithor, anyone?

@@Justanotherconsumer All variants of Nuka Cola give rads though. Sunset Sarsaparilla giving none implies to me that they all have something radioactive as an ingredient, Quantam just has more.

@@NavyPheonix Not all. Just the more common ones. I think most of the ones added in the DLC don't add rads and at least ones reduces them. All the ones made in the mixer are definitely rad free.

Or the Yum Yum Deviled Eggs!

@jason4443 is a synth! Stop em from taking us!

You must be a synth 🤨

I’m more a Dandy Boy Apple boy

There’s so many episodes that could be done about fallout lol, there are all the pre war stuff, the soda’s, all the recipes in 76

caught me off guard

...if you have one

There's an official book

Mmmm iguana on a stick

​his recipe will probably be Alligator on a Stick.

@@JTL1776 or actual iguana. Because you can actually eat them. Though the legality in the states is questionable.

Check out MisoHungrie, he reviews official licensed cookbooks and he's done several Fallout episodes (including his own Jello cake)

To add to this, pomegranate is not in the default nuka cola recipe, but we can start to theorise what probably is. -Lemon -Lime -Orange -Passion fruit This is official we know this. -Kola nut? If we include the kola nut we're up to 5 already, what about the other 12? Well if we take some notes from Dr Pepper we're ending up with -Cherry -Vanilla -Blackberry -Apricot (Substituted with peach maybe, part of the same family with similar flavour profiles). -Plum Now we're at 10, 7 left. Using in game knowledge we can deduce that the other unique flavours are probably also part of the recipe just in higher quantities in those variants. -Cranberry -Grape We need 5 more, we can guess it may include pear as Nuka Orange was developed using pear brandy as a base. -Pear 4 more, now we're left with plenty of options out of the top 20 "tastiest" fruits. -Peach? -Mango? -Kiwi? -Strawberry? -Raspberry? -Grapefruit? -Melon? We can try to guess based on popularity, so your final recipe might be. -Lemon -Lime -Orange -Passion fruit -Mango -Strawberry -Grapefruit -Melon -Cranberry -Grape -Pear -Cherry -Vanilla -Blackberry -Peach -Plum -Kola nut Am I going insane trying to figure out the real Nuka Cola recipe? Yes.

Yeah, and he should recreate Doc Morbid's recipe.

Mystery meat tastes oddly like pork...

Death claw omelete ❤

Yeah, I fear we are getting close to jumping the shark

Two weeks.

Is this episode not normal?

@@tylero354 It is normal. It used to be all this channel was. Just Binging with Babish. Nowadays it's mixed in with a lot of other episodes like Basics or Anything/Anime with Alvin. Not that I am complaining. Just saying it's nice to see an old school type video

"a hotdog made with bacon" sounds amazing

Especially if it's nitrate/trite free!

@@epl803 That reminds me of a small West Coast burger restaurant chain called Slater's 50/50. Burgers are made with half ground beef and half bacon.

@@SeoulMan It's not, its got Prog powder in it. Necessary to get that preserved/processed meat flavor, and adds a little bit of pink color to the meat. Without prog powder, it would be very white.

Yes, this! It's delicious and one of my favorite deserts at potlucks and family dinners here in the midwest

With a Geiger counter in my hand, I'm going out to stake me some government land!

Probably "Gell-O"...

Right? My Grandma was a Wilton trained baker and used to do cakes for people, and she'd put the leftover Crisco based frosting in graham crackers for us to have as a treat every so often. I miss those. Might try to make em sometime.

Bimbish is too scared to say his name.

Bottomless bag of butter powder gang

I’m still waiting for Bimbish to stop being a coward and answer Mr Sausage’s challenge.

Mr. Sausage wouldn't have gotten assaulted in a mental health ward, I can tell you that.

HERE HERE!! 👍

Would have been cooler than fake jello cake at least those are in the games

You know there is an actual fallout cookbook right?

@@camo770 nope I didn't know but I know that jello cake is from the show tho 😂

I have also had the midwest jello cake of which you speak, I was incredibly confused by what he made. Like, that was just a cake with some jello sitting on top.

Yeah same here, it's a staple of almost every family gathering or potluck. It's most certainly not slapping a large molded jello on top of a regular cake. I don't think the babish team actually did any research on this...

I've made Jello cake by baking a cake, poking holes in it, and pouring Jello over it. I thought that's what this was going to be, but it wasn't.

​@@ToaPaul959 Unfortunately that's not a Babish error, it's a Fallout error. That's how they make the cake in the show.

Solidarity, buddy. I haven't even been counting how many days I've been requesting foods from Homestar Runner, but I know it's up there.

This would actually be amazing, I want to see this so bad now!

Gotta get that suudsu

@@How-Do-I-Nezzy There's got to be a recipe for a "stick of butter" that only looks like it instead of being an actual stick of butter. You could hit Homestar Runner and Brooklyn 99 in the same episode.

Was the el burgadito not enough for you animals?!

Too bad he didn't research what actual jello cake is though, could have saved him some hassle...

​@@ToaPaul959 that is mostly an error on the shows part as if you go to the beginning that's what the Jello cake is fallout looks like for some reason
