This lady created an actual bio-weapon, handled the backlash about as well as I handled my parents’ divorce, gaslit a genuinely nice woman who provided actual constructive criticism on live TV, and somehow still managed a likely lucrative deal to have the sauce sold in walmart. We really do live in a society.
Creates disgusting and rotten sauce, publicly attacks someone who wanted to inform her of the dangers, then gets rewarded by having her sauce put on shelves. The world is truly unjust.
This lady was such an arrogant douchebag to say the least, she's lucky she didn't get herself backhanded with that whole stunt she pulled on that lady taking her hand all condescendingly. I'm glad that crap isn't selling. Fuck her. Thanks for the info my guy 👍👍
The pink sauce lady is one of the most unlikable people. She's arrogant and fought hard against taking accountability with something that is essentially poison. She deserves to have this fail.
This kinda reminds me of the gorilla glue girl situation, right down to the people on Twitter defending her extremely dumb actions and her getting less than no consequences. The gorilla glue girl got clout and a free hair treatment and the pink sauce girl gets a brand deal. Parents tell their children that “in the real world your actions have real consequences”, but lessons like that don’t even ring true anymore. These women don’t deserve to suffer, but they need to be held accountable before we have more and more cases like these popping up. Edit: After reading some comments, I have to agree with the notion that the gorilla glue girl simply made a stupid mistake while the pink sauce lady was a self centered narcissist who got rich off of publicly poisoning customers. Plus having your hair glued to one position for a month would probably count as a consequence of the gorilla glue girl’s bad decision. Just clearing the waters.
It's because people always have something to say about some of these women, which in turn, helps them with engagement. All of this engagement gets them these awesome deals everyone hates them for. They don't care about what people say, just the benefits of it. I don't like them either, but they're just operating by unorthodox methods in social media marketing....that works unfortunately.
I'm pretty sure the gorilla glue girl didn't get any benefits from that. She had to have a surgeon try to remove the glue from her scalp for like, 9 hours and she looked like a complete idiot to everyone. This is someone actively making a bad product and refusing any criticism or feedback that isn't kissing her ass
Pink Sauce looks good as a mf and the Gorilla Glue lady that was an honest mistake and it turned out horrible a tragedy that she shared with the public
Maybe because people make dumb mistakes all the time. They just recorded theirs. I'm sure if we rewind your life there's a few things that people in your life just let you learn from and moved on.
The fact that I spent 5 years of my life and a ton of money at university learning the specific laws, regulations, and proper practices to become a food scientist while she gets away with and is basically rewarded for selling poison to people makes me want to curl up in a ball and die.
The fact that she was able to sell that shit without proper bromatological permits, with a fake label, and wasn't sued to death while thousands of brands have to go through the due process to put a product on the market is unbelievable and a slap on the face for all the people that do things the right way.
But the people who could do something about it wouldn’t because the public backlash would label them a racist+sexist and they’d be ousted from society.
Because there is no actual proof that she actually has endangered anyone's health. Edit: This case has been heavily overblown. Watch Ann Reardon's How To Cook That video to watch an actual chef look at the Pink Sauce with an actual culinary background.
Nobody is in danger though. Really don't like how Charlie and all the other youtubers made it seem like people were dropping like flies from pink sauce when literally nothing happened 💀
3:56 swear to god every time i see a picture of these bottles, they have a different color. sometimes it’s beige, sometimes it’s flesh pink, or sometimes it’s just an indescribable shade of awful.
After the way Chef Pii “handled” her criticism that came her way, no one should be buying it. This is the same TikToker that didn't even know what FDA means.
Here's the thing, her fame can be attributed to 3 things: 1. Novelty - Making a good-sounding sauce (supposedly... sounded trash to me) with a strange and unique color gave her product instant marketability. 2. Tech Savviness - Using Shorts and TikToks to spread viral awareness of her product made it easier for her to accrue a large following and many people interested in giving it a try. 3. Balancing Outrage Culture and Victim Culture - To be clear, I am not referring to victim culture in the sense that chuds refer to it, but rather in the same way that they themselves profit off of it. By giving a toxic, dangerous product, Chef Pii could sell her Pink Sauce in a way that it would spoil before getting to anyone, they'd be able to tell it was bad and not use it, then they'd post about their issues online directing their complaints to the person who sold them literal poison. This generates buzz and outrage meaning people will talk about it more causing it to spread like wildfire across the internet with nobody (or few people) harmed. Worst case scenario, she does a couple refunds and maybe has to shell out a little for victims who were properly harmed due to somehow being unable to tell the sauce went rancid. Then, as all of these major figures and even countless "little people" rage at how horrible what she did is, she can then turn around and claim that she's a victim of horrid online abuse because she made a revolutionary product and had a couple of minor issues with packaging and shipping due to being an independent creator who didn't know better and was thrust in over her head suddenly. "Oh, woe is me! I'm being cancelled for making a couple of mistakes that didn't actually harm anyone (but could have killed people if anything went wrong). Sure I made mistakes, but I don't deserve the abuse and harassment (that I am receiving in very low supply but will pump up those numbers by labelling all fair criticism under this umbrella). I'm going to try to do better on this in the future, I just need you to be patient since it's hard to start this from nothing." With that, she gets people angry at her for lying and making herself to be the victim. She gets people ignorant to what is happening to have sympathy for her since people tend to believe the first thing they hear even when presented evidence to the contrary (no matter how much some of us like to believe we will change our stance on things). Finally, she galvanized some of her marks to become avid defenders of her creating a loyal group to market her for her. All this buzz then inspires companies to be interested in the product hoping to profit off the character and her fans and hoping that the appeal that made the product popular in the first place will work even without the need for active marketing. They cut her a check mostly to be the face while they make their own version that won't kill people, she gets her money and fame, and she's free to repeat this again in a couple years now with the added credibility that the purchase of her brand gives her even though her product has nothing to do with the version that finally hit shelves. Honestly, I hate what she did, but at the end of the day, it's obvious this was a gift from the start for TikTok fame. I don't think she expected the brand deal, but I do think she intended for it to be so controversial because she has a history of being a worthless clout-chasing scrub who was searching for ANYTHING to pick up for her. This is a pretty easy Hail Mary play anyone who is desperate enough for attention could do... and many have done.
When she held her hand to try to gas light her after she said she wasn't special was sickening. The consumer was such a strong person to not punch her in the face.
it probably won’t sell well. Most of the publicity it got was due to sauce not being shelf stable. I assume the sauce they sell at walmart replaces a lot of the perishable ingredients.
It sucks how the media shows her off as some kind of a hero. While she has actually shown to be a rude and unlikable person. I feel really bad for the people that got painted as the villain in this whole mess. Especially the lady that was sending a sample of the pink sauce to a lab to see if it's actually safe to consume.
She: shrugged off concerned consumers as 'haters', rudely responded to critics and food scientists, served ingredients that aren't shelf stable, treated people generally with attitude, didn't even know what the FDA was, and pocketed people's money while giving them a toxic and unconsumable product. Yet she gets rewarded with a brand deal, I'm so f'ing done.
As someone who works at a Walmart, seeing this while unloading the truck recently, I was blown away that anyone was willing to work with her and get this to be an actual product. It’s embarrassing.
Idk, it's probably safe to eat now and will certainly sell early on, it makes sense why they would carry it. Her being an awful person is beside the point.
The wild thing about this to me is that there is a pizza chain in my city that has a pink garlic salad dressing called “The Pink Stuff.” It has a lot of the same ingredients too, very tasty, and NOT rancid. It’s also been around since the 60’s so it’s entirely possible Chef Pii didn’t even come up with this sauce idea.
Just ate a salad with a pink sauce called Thousand Islands dressing. I believe this kind of thing has already been around for a long time, she just stole the idea
@@seonsunnysunshine Thousand Island is a little more complicated than the Pink Stuff since it has more ingredients. I think the main difference is Thousand Island is mayonnaise-based while Pink Stuff is garlic and vinegar based. Both are very good!
there's a restaurant in virginia with legit "pink sauce" that's been there for at least a few years. it's just creamy tomato sauce, but it's super good!
She selected all of the worst story choices and somehow got the best ending. Like I'm losing my mind, how can she make a dangerous product that could seriously hurt people. Then go on live TV and blatantly lie about it aswell as belittling someone who has genuine concern and is completely in the right. For doing all this bad shit she is being rewarded it's ridiculous and calling her a chef is a sad embarrassment to the profession.
Because this world is so unfair. Off topic a little, but I used to be SUPER religious, and then I got to a point where I realized me praying and doing everything perfect gave me no advance in life. I realized this world is just unfair, and sometimes we can’t do shit about it. I HATE this thought, but it’s true sadly. Like I always think, yes bad people will get what’s coming for them, but then again I’ve seen horrible people get everything they want in life while genuinely good people have sometimes gotten nothing but the joy they bring to others.
@@aleigha_mm You seem genuinely dumb. Maybe we should push you back into the church since "super religious" is what all the idiots tend to be. Looks like you learned nothing being "super non religious". She literally benefited from racism towards the white woman. "You're just jealous im trying to poison and scam the world and you're standing in the way of my black girl boss narcissism by not giving me money!". That's literally what happened. But thanks for your useless perspective. Maybe you should have spent your comment nothing how political correctness makes black women extremely toxic, violent and what they want the most isnt to be mature, good people but violently hateful, infantile people whom we're never supposed to hold accountable BUT we're all supposed to buy their cheap products or....else?
the ingredients DO NOT go together. the ingredients interact in a way where they OXIDIZE creating the shade differences and making it slowly but surely turn brown. its so rancid!!!
They allowed a grown adult to learn nothing from her mistakes. In fact, they rewarded her. She will never take accountability or responsibility for any wrong.
fr, and then someone in stream had the audacity to say that people can change, she's not gonna change because she doesn't think she did anything wrong lmao
This is how the mindset of a petty criminal is formed. Eventually she'll end up running someone over and thinking the police will let her go scott free declared as a hero for letting that man with a record of attempted suicide die. But in reality she'll be charged with vehicular manslaughter as she pretends to not even know what the definition of that crime is.
"You're not special" and then everyone clapping made my blood boil the first time I saw it, seeing it result in a million dollar deal shows how little thought went through at the company
Is it just me or does that chick look like there's only one neuron firing in her brain and it's like the windows screensaver logo bouncing from opposite sides of her skull?
I love how she says it as if she was special beforehand.....to me and probably others' SHES not even that special either. she sold literal waste in the mail, thought the F in FDA meant Pharmacy and not Food......so she can't even spell, got everything wrong, and normally those who do what she did would've been sued bet you anything because of the whole Poeple of color movement that's the ONLY DAMN REASON she's getting away with it. she choose a good time to do it when people of color are treated better these days and not equal to white people since I bet the audiance only saw a white on black hate crime people in that audiance probably don't even know her or how she treats people and they all deserved to be slapped
@@savageratentertainment we live in a society where minoritys reign supreme. ppl who are native to thier own country are the minority now. Plus it's racist to talk about anyone badly of different color. But if ur not a person of color then u don't mean very much. It's the scoiety we live in 2023
The way she behaved towards that sweet lady on the talk show tells you all you need to know about her. She's egotistical, condescending and refuses to take any sort of accountability for the literal poison in a bottle she created. The fact that any brand was willing to work with her is just embarrassing, I hope people don't actually buy that garbage even if It did taste decent now, she doesn't deserve that.
The worst part is that this isn’t even a demonstration of growth like “Hey, I massively fucked up, I let my ego get in the way of just making a product I’m passionate about”. I feel like there’s still zero exercises of accountability on her part, but she somehow comes out on top 🥴
My many decades on Earth have shown me that maybe 0.000001% of people exercise accountability, the rest try to avoid accountability because accountability equals loss of money.
can we js point out how she didnt even know what the FDA was, she went live and said “im not selling any medicine or drugs i dont know what that is but i dont need it” like… thats already my biggest concern..
I still cant get over the way she treated that "hater on that talk show." They pinned it on a REVIEWER. If she felt like hurt, she should've NOT MADE POISON AND SHIPPED IT TO PEOPLE.
not to mention she blamed so called "doxxing and life threats" and "her having to move everyday" on THAT ONE person! she is so dilusional and insane that I sincerally hope she loses all the money she scammed out of people and finally get held accountable for her actions
I couldn't believe it when the host actually backed her up and told the other woman that she has more of a lesson to learn. The delusion, gaslighting, and arrogance was absolutely insane. I hope she goes broke sooner than later. Prob one of the worst tiktokers I've had the displeasure of coming across (which granted isn't saying much since I stay tf away from it).
It's quite obvious, everyone involved with that show is racist. Notice the whole thing about a community that is heavily comprised of colored people bringing on a white person just to berate them when they brought factual, scientific work and Pii bringing up false allegations: They marginalized the odd person out, which is literal racism. And you know these same people would be the type to claim that they can't be racist towards white people, when marginalization within isolated communities does in fact exist, it's just taboo to talk about because nobody ever looks at individual and group behavior but instead only talks about the much broader issue. The fact that the audience applauded Pii's berating is more than enough evidence to support this, as is the host not telling Pii to cut their bullshit, they're all just as bad as Pii is, and Pii definitely is racist. I also wouldn't be surprised if Pii is the specific type of person that believes they deserve the world just because they're a person of color, how they act is pretty evident of this, which this is a pretty common mentality anyways, which is an issue itself. I hope the company supporting Pii gets irreparable backlash from this stunt. I also hope they screwed Pii over with little to no royalties, we all know she's the type to blow off the money she got within a year or two.
that was such a painfully annoying job! every table and every class and office and trashcans and every bit of a giant highschool, we had to get the gum off from, only for the kids to stick gum back in those spots again.
@@stanclark8824 Yoo, I actually was friends with the janitor of my high school back in the day. He said that scraping gum was the worst because teens would always stick gum back in the same spots.
It’s the lack of accountability that is the worst part of this person. She hasn’t learned her lesson after the first bit of criticism and couldn’t admit she marketed and sold a bad product
My god-- "you're not special as far as someone trying to hurt me..." she sounds so full of herself. I imagine that once this company fixes her "sauce", she'll go right to social media to brag about how she "fought against the haters" and "persevered".
We live in an anti-science and anti-facts age. You have people like this woman only talking about how facts make her feel bad and use surface-level semantics to "shut" her critics down without providing an ounce of data or approval. Im truly sick and tired of people having this "L + ratio + didnt read + you lame + you a hater + u jealous + clout" personality in REAL LIFE and use it to essentialy drown out every criticism with screaming and playing into internet culture tropes.
@@brianjones9780 It is in fact very similar. The way the internet accelerates the process, aswell as encourages acting like this through immediate validation (Success) is...something though. While acting like a miracle healer in the old days to shut down criticism and acting like "a bad bih girlboss clout goblin" now is essentialy the same, the new version is particulary annoying. Not sure if this "You just jealous cuz I made it" flex angle was a thing back then aswell, but it is infuriating either way.
Where's the justice here? That concerned consumer got humiliated by Pii and now Pii has a full fledged business deal with her pink sauce. That consumer needs justice for Pii's wrongdoings toward her
The thing that pissed me off the most about the interview is when Chef Pi claimed she reached out to every affected customer to make things right. Then immediately follows up asking why should she have had to reach out to the girl for. The girl who was an affected customer.
Fr, that interview felt as self defeating as logan Paul's first lie-filled response to Coffeezilla that he later deleted. That the audience just kept clapping mindlessly, even after the contradictions, the entirely unrequested hand holding, and even the show host joining in on being holier-than-thou and horribly mischaracterizing that *extremely* patient lady, it was beyond frustrating.
@@january3rd293 the host bothered me just as much as "Chef" Pi did. I was in awe when they actually said that the woman who saved ppl from a literal toxic product had more of a lesson to learn in the situation. That whole thing was just cringe city. The gaslighting, belittling, twisting of the truth, refusal to take responsibility and accountability, arrogance, entitlement...it's unreal to me that she still has any support whatsoever.
After how she reacted to criticism and that girl on the talk show (I couldn't believe she actually said "you aren't special" while holding her hand) she fly out didn't deserve this. Some of the least deserving people get this kind of success and it's so gross.
Her behavior on that talk show will keep me from ever buying a bottle of that garbage, I don’t care if it gets rave reviews as the best tasting sauce ever created.
@@momiji_number1daughterwife The woman quite literally shipped milk based products unrefridgerated... to the point that the containers were SWOLLEN with harmful bacteria.
I appreciate that. He is a very good balance of someone who sees the world the way it is, but isn’t overly depressing about it. And I respect him for that.
My theory is that Dave's picked up the pink sauce purely for the marketing alone and they just completely reworked the entire recipe so that it's actually safe.
They did. They completely changed it so much that the sauce is no longer pink. So the name is a lie. Now, I don't even know why they would want the brand. It's so tarnished. . So now they have a source called pink sauce that isn't pink. And the only memories people have of it are that it possibly could have made people sick. Not a very wise move. And I hope they suffer a bit from it because these companies need to learn to stop investing and do stupid tick-tockers and stupid ideas rewarding them. Doing this kind of stuff. It's absolutely dumbfounding. I hope people don't go, oh, I'm gonna try a bottle of it now, 'cause That's only supporting it. It's not even pink sauce anymore.
his chat (not all of them) really does have the average intelligence of a stupid 5 year old. prime example was the person that uttered the point "people change"
I'm not one to support vandalism or theft, but if some vigilante hero decides to raid all the walmarts covering east to west of their pink sauce, I wouldn't mind at all
@@adyny8598 In all honesty, it probably always was mediocre at best and the only reason it got any attention at all besides its color is because of all the scandal surrounding it
Her attitude is really what turned me away from ever trying her products. The gaslighting that she did on that one talk show really was the tip of the iceberg. Even if her product got better, her personality didn’t ..
I just like how she didn't get arrested yet after breaking so much safety protocols and didn't pasteurised her sauces. Yet she manages to keep selling them is just horrifying.
@@housemouseshorts to say this is to literally ignore statistics. Feelings over facts, right? The actual problem is the lack of any real accountability for skirting regulations in a capitalist economy. This behavior is incentivized, and rewarded.
It wouldn't be bad if she showed some remorse or even that she understood what went wrong. It could have been a wholesome success story. But with how she handled the criticism and the "haters", she really doesn't deserve to be rewarded for her stupidity and arrogance.
Even if she had a shred of remorse and didn't act how she acts toward concern, she still broke the law in the first place by improperly preparing and packaging her product and lying on the labels. She still put people at risk for her own benefit. If she tried to show remorse for that, it would mean nothing. The damage would still be done, and the money would still have been made
I went to my local Walmart to pick up a few groceries a couple of days ago and I was checking out. They have a clearance cart by the self checkout with products they put up on clearance and the pink sauce was just sitting there. It must have been put on clearance the moment it hit the shelves
ANNNNND you nailed it!!! The fact she got rewarded for almost killing people with some bs rancid novelty sauce is MIND blowing!!! Even more so, is the person that bought it and helped appropriately (we hope) mass produce it.😒 I hate the world we live in.
It's people like these that really make me realize that most influencers who have been called out for their shenanigans simply just don't learn. How do these people still get support?
How she acts like the victim, or been acting like the victim through the whole thing is actually insane. Also if you want a pink sauce just buy Brianna’s Blush Wine vinaigrette.
Or literally just mayo with a drop or 2 of food coloring. I don't understand how the color of a sauce is such a big deal in a world where food coloring exists and is safe to consume lol.
@@Seebeejeebees People just don't use it as much. Folks who do a lot of cooking make great use of it, but the average joe who likely uses doordash a few times a month? Probably doesn't even have a box. And then it's the Tiktok hype. If it's popular, folks will throw money at it.
