Julia in VR might cause some discomfort for people with motion sickness issues, it shouldn't be a problem but I prefer to give you a heads up Secret Sleepover Society is every Sunday & Wednesday at 9 pm Eastern time www.twitch.tv/secretsleepoversociety
I love how yall pronounced "Kartoffel Klöße" and "Dunkles Märzenbier" As a german, I can tell you that it's basically just "Potato balls"... or as google translate suggests: "Potato dumplings".. which is a bit away from the regular definition of dumplings.. and the other one is simply.. some kind of _dark beer_.. probably named that way because of the color
Vaguely related PSA: a falling knife has no handle. If you drop (...or try to juggle...) a knife, don’t try to catch it. Let it drop, try to avoid it while it’s falling, and pick it up immediately when it lands. A falling knife has no handle!
Learned this lesson the hard way,,,,, its hard to train yourself out of the habit of "quick, catch it!" But your non-bleeding hands will thank you for the effort
Salt actually isn’t a spice! Herbs are the leaves of plants, spices come from other parts like stems and roots and flowers. Salt is, just like Julia said, salt. It’s a seasoning yeah, but a mineral rather than an herb or spice!
yup. Julia's right about salt, but her reasoning makes no sense. I mean, spicy means that it's hot. not all spices are that. Like, curry for example is certainly a spice, but it it isn't spicy on its own. but if you got a lot of curry in a meal, it's heavily spiced. things like chili peppers aren't spices either but they're still spicy. Or are they just hot, and spicy is just when spices are hot? either way, you need spices to have something spicy (mab), but spice =/= spicy. salt isn't a spice because it's just a whole different thing (mineral) that does a whole different thing to the food (change salt levels, rather than actively altering the taste, not that you don't taste salt, but I hope is clear what I mean)
@Nana the Brave (ネナ・ザ・ブレイブ) it’s just commenting on how beautiful they both look and that this ammt of beauty is overwhelming, not trying to break up a couple or to creep, just a compliment
I don’t like mint Ice Cream too much but I don’t think that it tastes like toothpaste. I generally don’t like mint candy or mint flavored food but I do like the chocolate York candies and Andes Chocolate Mints.
Idk what gender envy is but they are both very beautiful and I wish I was like them on the inside and outside because they look cool and have cool personalities.
@@Mystery-Wolf gender envy is you see someone and you're like "the way this person expresses their gender identity is how i want to" but in a "i'm totally not trans or anything" way. like it's always the closeted trans people who use that term and they're generally like 14 year old
@@solarprogeny6736, you just mad me rethink the whole "lol, I like facial hair even if it's not the conventionally pretty kind, that's still pretty cool" narrative I have had for a long time, damn...
I made a stew of sorts a few days ago. I don't have money for food right now and all I have is produce, so I threw together stuff in the crock pot: a carrot, a few old potatoes, unfresh parsley (I was actually a little worried I'd get food poisoning from it), cilantro, cabbage, old broccoli, chicken broth, and a wrinkled pepper that turned out to be really spicy and made the whole meal nearly inedible. The only way I've been forcing it down is with lots of sour cream and cheese and some coconut milk to try to drown out the spice. It's very much a Julia Cooking Sim meal.
@@adinsilverstein2788 I've only ever known stew to be a watery broth with chunks (veg, beans, pasta, grains etc. or meat if you're that way inclined). The defining factor is that it's not blended. Maybe it's a regional difference? also @CheshireKat I hope you've got something more palatable to eat now!
@@shockofthenew I haven’t had many stews and wouldn’t say I’m very attached to any regional culture. I just think there should be some differentiator between soups and stews. I’ve had more thin/brothy foods that were called soups than were called stews, so I thought stew should be reserved for thicker foods. Maybe that’s just me, but I feel that people shouldn’t use soup and stew interchangeably.
@@adinsilverstein2788 ok! Well I've never heard thick-but-smooth soup referred to as stew, but I *have* always heard watery- broth-with-big-chunks referred to as stew, and I grew up eating a lot of stew. Maybe if there are a lot of beans/chunks/ruffage in your thick soup it would tip over into stew territory (for me)? Sounds like we have kind of opposite definitions of soup/stew though... Luckily this is probably the most harmless topic there ever was to disagree on!!! Hopefully we can co-exist in peace with our different definitions ;)
I suffer from Pure OCD (I can’t explain it in simple terms so look it up lol) These cooking simulator videos are some of the most comforting videos I have came across and they help distract my mind because I get excited to se what Julia and Jacob will cook up next! ( I get super excited also because I dream of becoming a chef when I’m older :) )
Dude just start cookin and stuff if you wanna be a chef because it might be fun. I dunno I just hope you pursue that dream cuz being a chef sounds fun kinda, although I already have the job I want picked out.
Julia smashing the dishes after eating chat's meal made me cry. Between that and her throwing literally anything when shes done with it made this stream a 10/10
I placed top ten in marbles for the first time in this stream only for Jacob to mispronounce my username which feels very on brand for him and gave me so much joy
@@saxrendell It's actually exactly that. Both menthol and capsaicin affect our system of sensory receptors that monitor things such as touch, temperature and pain, just in opposite* ways. Menthol makes you feel, and become sensitive to, cold, while capsaicin does the same for hot. *note: they are not truly opposite as they do not cancel each other out. Do not try to use one against the other. Your mouth will simply be burning both hot and cold at the same time.
I find toothpaste reasonably easy since cinnamon and also unflavored became more popular, but it seems like 99% of the floss on this earth is waxed with mint flavoring.
I need extra sensitive bristles on my toothbrushes. Most toothbrushes by the major brands that are said to be "sensitive" are not nearly sensitive enough. It's hard for me to find toothbrushes.
@@ACDBunnie try toddler toothbrushes. They wear out somewhat quicker and have shorter handles, but I’ve had pretty good luck with them sensory/softness wise. My dentist also recommended Pro-sys extra soft but I have yet to try that brand. Good luck!
Good point! Although it varies by brand, and I've had some ice creams with chocolate bits that weren't like normal chocolate. It dissolved really fast and so it actually was melty and flavorful!
Or as an adult if your so inclined. Because sometimes just mixing a bunch of complimenting ingredients and seeing what happens. (Tho sometimes it can in fact end in dubious food)
I love horror, I love queer subtext, and cooking shows make me hungry, but I get nauseous pretty easily when it comes to gore, so the Hannibal telly series was a problem. Until I started eating mint chocolate chip ice cream at the same time. Settled my stomach, satisfied my munchies, and doesn't look like it could possibly be made from people? The perfect trifecta Plus now when I have mint ice cream I get nostalgic for the Hannibal days
I'm with Jacob, in some dialects of English spice is a synonym for "seasoning," and the origin of the seasoning isn't significant to which term you use: edit: having thought about it, it's actually "spices," plural, that can be interchanged with seasonings, saying salt isn't a spice feels valid, but including it in the general term "spices" is also valid, at least in my experiences with my dialect *casual reminder that meanings of words are determined by widespread usage amongst populations, not people who write dictionaries, who usually try to simply record those widespread usages*
that's really interesting. ive heard spice used as a synonym for seasoning before, but only as a verb. never realised people also used it to refer to all seasonings as a noun too. also yes fuck prescriptivism lol
Kartoffel Klöße is german and the "ß" isn't a B. It's like a "S". or example the german word for street "Straße". The "a" before the "ß" is long (like the "a" in army). Would you write it "Strasse" (what doesn't make sense), the "a" is short (like the "a" in apple). I hope that is (kinda) understandable. :) And "Kartoffel Klöße" are like mashed potatoes formed to potato-balls and than cooked in water.
@@dolly606Yes and no. So…. Sure, in the big picture they’re similar to gnocchi but in reality they are wayyy bigger and softer and they taste way more like actual potato. And gnocchi are often associated with Italian cuisine and therefore often served with Italian sauces. But the traditional German sauces taste so different that these two as complete meals served in a proper way taste super different from each other
Idk why but 4:02 is such a cute moment to me Jacob just like "i put in all this effort for the set up Julia plz" I love these vods so much, thank you for all the effort you put into not only putting these up but also adding chapters and content warnings!
It is pretty normal to serve potatoes just boiled in salty water as a side dish in Europe. And yes, it is something you can get even in fancy restaurants. Baked potatoes with seasoning are called 'american potatoes' and they are not common. In my country (Czech rep.), we put some cummin to the boiling potatoes too, but Czechs are said to put cummin to everything. Which is not true, we just put it to the potatoes. And to bread dough, of cource. And on meat. And mushrooms (we eat a lots of mushrooms). And on crackers and to some breadspreads... ok.
@@delicateghoul His is pretty subtle, but my brain is awful and will go "IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!!!" every single time after I first notice something like that, so.
counter point: rum raisin. people either love rum raisin to the point that they would you kill for it, or they think it's horrific. it's rare to find someone without a strong opinion on rum raisin.
As a recently out Trans guy, the part where the chat started screaming trans rights and Julia and Jacob acknowledged it makes me so happy. Thanks guys!
Awesome fun stream! You always make my life less lonely. If you plan on doing VR often, maybe a lavalier microfone would come in handy. They are little clip on mics and like 20 buck on amazon. A wireless setup for them is more expensive though. But maybe worth looking into for you two.
this is a weird coincidence I keep seeing peoples opinions on mint chocolate chip ice cream some saying it tastes like toothpaste... which like have they actually tried the ice cream??? or is this like a genetics thing, like how cilantro tastes terrible to me and is just kinda spicy or something to most people?
Back in my really bad anxiety days I would chew gum as a coping mechanism and I’d usually drink chicken soup because it was a comfort food. It was a comfort food because I could chew mint gum and drink soup broth at the same time. :-)
