Let's Debunk some weird and wonderful viral videos ... and of course Dave's our taste-tester 😍PS. want your own DEBUNK definition mug? ua-cam.com/users/howtocookthatstore
I feel clickbaited... the thumbnail wasn't a thing you covered in the video! You pulled a "5-minute crafts" on us! lol
I made the Ramin cake 🎂 😂 and my mum was like 😝😐 when she sees it 😂😂😂😂😂 love u❤️❤️
Send dave our great fulness for being our fellow taste tester 🙂
@@johnjon4688 the chilli banana thing is actually in my kitchen right now being filmed in time-lapse for my next debunking vid :)
Are you aware of this video about these viral video pages? The pages like 5 minute crafts and troom troom may just be producing nonsense, based on an algorithm...it's all very very odd but I recommend a watch. ua-cam.com/video/tQq53-g25d4/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/wO5p3Fy8yKo/v-deo.html
The poorest beings in Ann's home:
1. The microwave oven plate
2. Dave
The microwave has been through a lot. Dave gets lots of good food too. 😂
His 'Oh no..' after taking a mouthful of the 'cheesy pasta' was soul-crushing, hahaha.
Ann, looking for more things to debunk: hmmm, i can feed that to dave
Dave: *frantically searching for divorce lawyers*
Haha... poor dave :(
This is real true 🤣🤣
I feel like the 5 minute craft employees were actually surprised when the iron cheese thing actually worked.
I imagine they were like were actually proud of this? what is this feeling Ive never felt it before, Oh my god its having integrity
@@informationyes that's what it feels like. Well, time to throw it away. How to sneak food into an aeroplane
I was surprised the iron thing worked, I expected it to burn or damage the iron
Honestly as a college student I've done that several times lmao waay before they turned it into a hack. It truly works
Congratulations, you made me do the nose exhale
ann: "honey, i'm making another debunking video today!"
dave: *sweats profusely*
Your name is inconvenient

At least it was just bad pasta/noodles instead of something inedible.
@@adventureslife2460 DO NOT PROMOTE YOUR VIDEOS IN THE COMMENT SECTION IDIOT
I know its covid but dave needs to be on holiday during these. Save yourself dave!
Ann: this looks disgusting
Also ann: hey dave
dave in the other room hearing her: guess ill die
Very thankful for Dave 😂
I absolutely hate it when "how-to" videos are actually more complicated because they don't specify the amounts.
Definitely
I think content farms don't care about informing their viewers, just getting their views. Stick to channels like Ann's for that :)
I think they don’t specify the amounts because they know it doesn’t work and they don’t want people to try it. Or maybe when people try it, they will blame it on not knowing the exact measurements and not the channel themselves.
Yeah like how are we going to do it? Like if your gonna make something fake PUT SOME EFFORT IN IT
Or sometimes they’ll pour in some totally random liquid that’s like neon orange and don’t say what it is
Dave: "I'm a big fan of pasta!"
Dave's eyes: "I WAS a big fan of pasta."
OMG lmao, you can tell tho lol
I hope he got a really amazing pasta and cheese dish
"Pre-al dente" is such a polite way to say uncooked haha
woah this got hearted by ann :o
@Vault-Man 101 raw
Its pre-ardente in italian
OMG THANK YOU, I tried the first mac and cheese in a mug hack before, and it turned out like yours, but at the time I thought the problem was with me and I literally thought I would never be able to cook well in my life because I cant even do the simple recipes... BUT now I know these were just fake recipes!! THANK YOU
Ann addressed this in an earlier episode of debunking 5MC cooking vids. She said kids and young people would try these "easy" recipes and hacks only for them not to work, and then think they did something wrong and have it impact their self-esteem. I'm glad Ann was able to help you with this discovery. Good luck in your future cooking adventures! Stay strong!
@@FashionMajor2012 Yess, Idk what is wrong with 5MC lol, anyways Thank you!! Good luck for you as well😊
The worst thing is you can make noodles in the microwave like those, I've done it before. You just need it in longer.
Maybe if the pasta was fresh and not the dry kind, 2 minutes may work? Idk, I don't make my own pasta. I buy it from the store.
Ok not to brag or make anyone feel bad but I'm 11 and can bake and cook
"Pre-al dente" is a really nice way of saying "freaking raw"
He’s a kind soul
Anyone else read that in Gordon Ramsey's voice?
@@cumincalamity9867 me (☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞
For someone who doesn't know, Al dente is when your spaghetti is soft outside but hard in the middle. It's a type of pasta only achievable by dried pastas
Oh my gosh yes
"Being married to a world class cook must be amazing!"
Dave (having flashbacks of eating a ramen and chocolate cake): "Well, about that..."
This reminds me do much of Food Wars, the cooking anime.
@potterhead let’s not make that a thing. Please. For some couples on UA-cam, it’s funny.
Ex. Ethan an Hila Klein.
But not for Ann and Dave.
However, if you truly believed they were siblings then... no dear. They are genuinely a married couple. They got children of school age who don’t need to be mocked for that sort of thing.

Not physically, at least. Dave is one tough guy and has some serious mental fortitude to keep on eating these disasters.

"It's like they took two good foods, mixed them together, and ruined both of them
"
🤣Dave with the absolute pearls of wisdom is killing me!
She knows that they're not gonna work but still does them anyway, the commitment
And the Husband is still trying the food thats good content thank you very much for all the likes the most i had
Well the grilled cheese actually worked
She does it to show us what would happen so we don't have to try it.
And sometimes, she probably even enjoys it - if she doesn't have to clean the microwave afterwards 😉🧡
Partition for a compilation of Dave trying food that is disgusting.
Am I the only one who thinks 5 Minute Crafts is now ripping off Anne's content (that was originally calling them out, lol) by making these debunking videos now? They seem desperate enough to debunk their own content and steal someone else's idea whilst doing it
I thought the same. It makes them despicable, but at least she doesn't care as long as they stop fooling people.
Debunking videos are just the latest craze
Kinda. She's not the only one who's doing debunking videos. Lots of youtubers do that too, because they makes much more views than regular content. Views and money are the only things 5 minute crafts/blossom/etc. cares about, so it isn't a big surprise tbh
There are LOTS of people who are started debunking 5 minute crafts WAY before Anne. Robby for instance (I don't think he does it anymore though).
@@MusumeNeko Yeah, that's how I came across Jarvis Johnson (someone check out his channel, he even has two of them where he talks about these kinds of videos, although his content expanded to fake animation stories etc. as well) and there are many more UA-camrs who make videos calling out content farms. (Also some try out the fake hacks and of course they fail!)
The worst thing about these content farms is how the recipes make Dave suffer
Ikr
Stop Dave abuse!
No that’s the best bit 😂
That man deserves a medal or such for all the torture he has gone through.
I hope he at least got to eat the "ironed cheese" sandwich.
The sass when Ann talks about Five Minute Crafts debunking themselves is incredible
It’s not progress to debunk themselves. They’re just hopping on the trend of debunking, since that type of video gets views. They still come out with new videos with lots of false claims.
Yes and to cover their own arses if anyone does these 'hacks' and something goes terribly wrong
I disagree. Even if it's still clickbait such videos have at least some relation to the truth. Now THAT is massive progress.
And the fact that they make debunking videos might even give people the idea that they're more credible and therefore think the false claims are also true
@ You seem to think I am defending 5MC. I am not. I hate 5MC more than words could ever describe. But, the bitter fact is, its braindead clickbait is here to stay. With these debunking videos, the hacks at least have some relation to the truth.
I have written letters about content farms to newspaper editors, Google, and pretty much everyone you can imagine. If there is one thing I know it is that youtube LIKES content farms and they are here to stay. These content farms keep people on UA-cam far longer than conventional content and youtube wants that. SO given that they are a fact of life on UA-cam, I'd rather see them do something mildly related to the truth like debunking their own content than complete fiction.
Wonder if they will eventually debunk stuff that actually works? 😂😂😂
Imagine being her teenager. Your day sucked. Your girlfriend/boyfriend dumped you, your teacher was an absolute nightmare, it rains on your way back... The only nice thing is that your mom is a tremendous pastry chef. You enter your house with a heavy heart, and you can smell the divine aroma of freshly baked brownies. Sure enough, there's a full tray of them on the kitchen counter. You let your worries wash away and bite into a nice portion. Then it hits you. Rammen Brownies.
I spent a good 15mins laughing at this, thank you
If shes a pastry chef worth her salt then she can make even ramen brownies taste amazing lol
Oh no ooo XD
Okay but like you have absolutely amazing writing how-
this was a trip
I love how the clickbait banana chilli watermelon monstrosity is never actually referred back to. Anne's using those content-farms own strategies against them 😆
I was waiting for that one!
Fight them with their own weapons!

This strange photo of Johnny Depp making sandwiches is actually a scene from a movie called "Benny & Joon" about mentally ill people.
One of my favorite movies.
I had to watch it and write a paper on it for a class in college. It’s actually a surprisingly good under the radar movie. Johnny Depp does a classic Buster Keaton routine flawlessly
Yes! I love this movie!
I was yelling this 🤣 😭
Google isn’t “getting” greedy. They ARE greedy
I've often imagined the near incontinent hilarity in the room when someone came up with 'Don't be Evil' as their motto.

I don’t know whether to feel sorry for, or be jealous of, Dave. I mean sure he has to suffer Ann’s debunking recipes, but he also gets to enjoy her actual cooking, and I’m positive Ann makes a point of cooking his favourites the day she makes her videos! She seems like the kind of person who would do that 😊
I’m starting to wonder how many microwaves Ann has ruined.
Smiley the duck not enough
😂😂 the things she does for us 😭
How many Daves she sacrificed for taste-test
I was totally thinking the same thing
My estimate is around 56
Shout out to Ann for casually slipping in an explainer for important happenings into the middle of her debunking video! Great explanation too!
One of the best breakdowns i have seen too.
I’m really glad she did. I hadn’t heard about this stuff going on until today and this video was from months ago. More people need to know this issue is terrible for people who’re being taken advantage of by google
Right?! She always has some knowledge for us, and she explains it in a way that everyone can understand. They say true intelligence is being able to explain even the most confusing topics to a five year old.
And thats why I like her channel. Also, Dave is an ex Investigative journalist too which is awesome.
Sorry. Having trouble understating you. Don't talk with your mouth full of some if these fake recipes
"Would you serve this to people at a party?"
"Depends on whether I like them or not."
Such a good burn, lol. Dave brought his A game for that one!
yup
Living in Ann’s house must be like going through Reddit 50/50, you’re never sure if you’re gonna get delicious brownies or disgusting ramen brownies

Furthermore, "grilled cheese" is retired, the amazing cheesy delicacy will now and forever be called, "cheese toasties." That is all.
It is way cuter sounding
Isn't that what they've always been called? Or is that just Australia.
@@rebeccaedkins9987 Just there I think, I'm not sure. As an American, I have never heard that term.
@Poppy Lidbetter-Smith maybe where you're from, not so for some of us.
@@candacethomas1262 It's the usual British term as well. "Grilled Cheese" can be confusing to a Brit when they hear it for the first time, because a) it's not immediately obvious that it means a sandwich, and b) we wouldn't usually refer to something cooked in a frying pan as "grilled".
I'm not sure how popular they still are, but at least into the 90s many British kitchens would have had a "toastie machine" - basically like a waffle iron, but the plates are designed to seal the bread into little triangle sandwiches. These machines would inevitably produce toasties with filings that are lava-hot, so caution was required! These days, people are maybe more likely to make their toasties in a pan, or using a panini press, or perhaps that's just me.

Poor Dave, but by god it’s worth it
Im rewatching this, remembering how important this video was when it came out (the later half of it). Thanks Ann Reardon for using your platform so responsibly
Ann didn’t mention anything about the thumbnail of the banana with the chilli. She Five Minute Craft-ed us! And I’m here for it. Love Ann and her debunking ways!
And Ann is being smart about it by how intentionally ironic it is
She has a video all about click-bait techniques, and she still gotcha-ed us
“5 Minute Crafts is now debunking themselves.”
I consider this less “progress” and more “gaslighting”.
Give them time, soon they'll start debunking things that actually do work, but make it seem crazy by showing they don't.

As an American overwhelmed with the over saturation of US politics, I very much appreciate you taking the time to explain the current dispute between google and Australian news sources. I enjoy learning about what’s going on in other countries
It's happening in all countries, America too (plus sites like weather.com are American)! I'm glad she talked about it because I wouldn't have ever thought of that.
It’s happening in the us too, it’s just that we’re in the middle of an election so it’s not news right now.
But it’s also important to see their doing to everyone. Right now their trying to effect our election and in the Oz their trying to destroy their news organizations. We need to be done with big tech.
An issue with Australian is that it's all owned by the same guy. All of Queensland's news is owned by a single company. This company favours the conservative party, and so they are extremely biased towards our progressive party to the point that they blatantly lie about each party to favour themselves.

@@darkmiseryTC A decision against google would set a precedent.Then smaller content makers wouldn't have to pay so much on legal fees and they could swarm Alphabet's legal team.

@@darkmiseryTC yes but that's just in Australia. Google is used world wide and I imagine that's got an impact. There are tons of smaller businesses who for sure are getting gutted by google.

Yeah, I just assumed watching the snippets was the same as watching the video on the site. Google's definitely being shady.
Very honorable of Ann to put this in her video and educate us. I was also unaware of this. And probably more than 90% of the time I don’t click onto the website because the little information I need can be found in the snippets or the link description.
Yea, I just assumed the stuff was just google itself, I didn’t even notice there was a source either because the text was so small. Wow google is scamming people...
As someone who has taught my kids how to make a microwave cheese bechamel sauce, they didn't add flour or cream, both of which need to be cooked out before you add milk and finally cheese at the end. Adding all that into a cup and pressing start will burn everything to a crisp and scald/separate the dairy before the pasta ever cooks.
Hi! Would you mind sharing your method?
@@magdao.9612 not OP but cheese sauce in the microwave is really easy.
Grate some cheese and add in a dash of milk. Microwave it for ten seconds, take it out, give it a whisk and repeat till the cheese and the milk create a smooth sauce. Add in your spices (I usually add in some salt, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, oregano and chili flakes) and microwave it again for 20 seconds.
Sorry I'm late. Method is to go by your cup size ratio. (A bigger cup makes more sauce and a smaller one less.
Fill half of cup with cheese of choice. Any cheese of your preference will do.
Leave it out of the cup to add in later.
Put one tablespoon flour or cornstarch to 4 Tbsp milk. Mix until their are no lumps. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well. Keep microwaving in increments till milk begins to thicken, indicating the starch is properly cooked out. If you have a different microwave it may take 4 or more 30 second bursts to start the cooking out but usually it's under 7 minutes to cook out such a small amount of sauce. If things start to bubble up, add a splash more milk but don't add any salt as it will increase how rapidly the sauce comes to a boil. If the milk goes brown or lumps are separating out, you need to start over.
Once thickened, add cheese in pinches, letting the residual heat melt it a bit before putting it in for more 30 second intervals. At this stage, if it's too thick add milk, too thin, you will have to boil off more of the water inside the cup. By the time you add cheese things are very prone to boiling over. Watch the cup carefully, slowly add cheese until sauce is at desired cheesiness and consistency. Some people prefer their sauce runny with more or with less cheese flavor. Add a tsp to tbsp of butter and one tbsp of cream to finish for an extra rich sauce. Finishing cooktime should be a minute maybe 2. Any more and you risk burning your sauce. If the butter separates out, remove from microwave and whip rapidly in a larger bowl. (warmed is best, I add pasta water from the stove and then return the water to the pot just to warm the vessel). The key to getting things to emulsify is how much you can balance the oil to protien to liquid to emulsifying agent ratio. In this case it's your starch. If you overdo the fats your sauce may never come together and you have to work out whether to add starch,milk, or, rarely, more cheese (the last being a double edged sword, it contains both high fat and high protein content.) Season to taste with salt pepper and herbs/garlic. Apply to your choice of bread or pasta.
Dave takes such big bites when he's given something to test, like at this point you know there's a huge potential for it to be bad, where's your self-preservation, man?! It makes my soul wince.
That's commitment
Same here
I've noticed Dave tends to hold back with eggy concoctions. When he tried the "milk carton flan" and the "homemade noodles" he took the smallest bite and spat it right after.
He does it for us. A true hero
U gotta love Dave
The fact that she clickbaited us into thinking that she was going to grow a pepper inside a banana is next level
I came back to this video a second time JUST because of this thumbnail, and was like "Wait a sec... she never did anything with that one...! I've been had!!" lol
I think she was trying to prove a point.
It's a Chill-nana.
I wanted to see what that was about too. Like, is this a water-level detector like those ceramic worms? Does this keep the pepper fresh? I really wanted to see how it wasn't going to work.
I came here to say this.
I swear they don't even try to make the hacks believable: the 'pencil graphite to diamond' hack produced an ALREADY CUT DIAMOND...what a clever hack it is bigger than the pencil lead AND already cut...plus it is a great hack for lighting a fire on an island because 5 min crafts would probably expect you to have a microwave in your bag the way they are going...smh

What Google is doing, is absolutely an issue. They are so powerful though, as you said, to care. They are going to keep trying to get away with it until til someone starts a fuss. Im glad Australia is putting up a fight/taking a stand.
Agree too. It's very disturbing how much they get away with it. It's very convenient, yes but it's so greedy and unethical that it makes me uncomfortable
The problem is a lot of Australian news is owned by Rupert Murdoch/News Corp. They have a history of influencing the government and Australia's perception of it's government and leaders, in ways that benefit themselves. For example having a role in sabotaging the govt's attempt at upgrading our internet infrastructure, pushing climate change denial, and minimal reporting on liberal party (conservative) scandals, while constantly slamming the labor and greens party members (moderate and progressive parties).
@@izzy4559 I was just going to say this- both the sides are corrupt in their own way, and the actual who get affected people don't win in most scenarios... While it would be amazing to have unbiased, fact-based news, I doubt any country on this planet has that
I agree it is a huge issue. (And to antholns, people don't choose to publish on Google. Google is a search engine that crawls and indexes content). But there is some legal nuance that is important to understand. In the US and EU (I don't know about Australia), copywrite does not apply to facts. If I measure the temperature and publish it, that fact is free for anyone to use. Creative content (accompanying text, pictures, etc.) is different, but I don't think anyone will be able to stop Google from harvesting data (weather, stock market numbers, birthdays, and so on) and presenting it however they want.
I will add that it is a good thing that facts belong to everyone. Imagine if I was able to, say, measure the height of the statue of liberty and publish it, and then no one else could ever do the same. That would be bad for everyone.

Also you can make a sweet pasta but do it with vermicelli, it will taste much better
yesss I was thinking of sweet vermicelli noodles when I saw the ramen recipe, but I would put sweetened condensed milk instead of cream cheese.
Yup, desserts made with vermicelli are very common traditional sweets in the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent
@@raerohan4241 yeah in my culture we call it "show"

@@yamyampurin I think I still wouldn't put those in brownie batter, that was just nonsensical. If I wanted chocolate-flavoured sheer khorma (which is my region's name for a sweet vermicelli dessert), I'd just add cocoa powder (maybe Dutch-processed?) to the original recipe, and add a little more liquid to keep the consistency. Or just directly add chocolate chips/chopped chocolate to the hot dessert, and go the way of a ganache. Or I'd make a thin chocolate custard/pudding base and add milk-softened vermicelli to that. There are lots of ways (which actually work!) that don't involve baking it into brownie batter

I’ve tried making that last drink called Brazilian Limeade and it’s pretty good when you first make it fresh but when you let it sit overnight, the flavor from the lime rinds makes the drink really bitter. You have to cut the rinds off before putting it in the mixture and blending it.
Oh I love Dave: "maybe if people needed a healthy drink option..." Ann: "it's not healthy!" Dave: "Then no."
They DEADASS basically told people "hey remember that thing in Minecraft where you can make sand in a furnace? ITS REAL GUYS!!!!"
It's like they rediscovered ancient tech lmao
At least in minecraft you actually put it in a furnace, Their method is more like using flint and steal on sand and expecting glass, it's like licking a tree and expecting to get maple syrup
Idk who needs to hear this: Ann may share a general goal as the content farms she debunks, but she takes time, does research, and implements expertise and heart. So if you ever felt a disconnect watching these, she makes videos for people, not for views.
I feel grateful for Ann for creating these debunking videos, but at the same time I feel sad for her too.
If you notice, you will see that she has already beginning to lose views since she started the debunking trend. From then on, only her debunking videos got the most views, whereas all her other works got much less, instead of them all sharing great views like before.
In other words, UA-cam's algorithm is seeing that Ann's debunking videos are what are selling, and only boost them, while neglecting all of her other great works and crafts, thus making them much less harder to come across to viewers.
I hope that people will still come to see Ann as a great baker and food expert, not as just a debunker.
@@caoduynguyenvuong3016 Somehow I only get notifications for the debunking videos so now I check back on Ann's channel to see if she uploaded anything
This woman is an angel. She makes the video from her heart, while she does have money intent she 100% deserve every penny because of her hard work. She does thorough research, explains WHY something works or doesn't work in an easy-to-understand way, and if possible she explains how to actually do the real thing. This woman is an angel what did I do to get blessed with such amazing content.
I love this comment section. Ann is and will always be a literal angel. I love her passion for all things food; she's so creative and endearing.
Her goal isn't to wring as much money as she can out of people while doing as little work as possible.
That sad look in his eyes right at 1:45 is just, heartbreaking

True
@Mycel Except they really aren't
Anne: This looks disgusting. Let's try it out!
Me: YOU LEAVE DAVE ALONE.
It didn't occur to me that Google was essentially stealing other people's content with the featured snippets. They're so convenient but it's true! If Google continues to use them, they should work out a system where they compensate the content creators or websites.
What they dont tell you is they do still get paid for those snippets. Much of the media in AU is owned by Murdoch who is mega greedy and lies through his teeth about everything.
We should all just stop using google tbh. I'd like to stop youtube too because of their shitty policies but honestly that would mean you can't support creators on youtube anymore. Google however is just a search engine so nothing is lost by switching to a different one. i've heard good things about duckduckgo since it has much better privacy policies than google.
But let's be honest that is why many people use Google as the search engine. It is convenience than the other search engines.

What madlad in history looked at a beach and thought “you know what, I’m gonna heat that sand up until it’s hotter than lava and see what happens”. Like how on earth did we discover how to make glass
No one knows.
Maybe they had a fire, and decided to throw in a bucket of sand to keep the fire going. After the fire died, there were clear shiny things in it. Then they decided the sand did it, and continued to do it since then. The end
@@emu_vee I don’t think a casual fire like that would be able to reach the molten temperatures needed to make glass. We probably just stumbled upon glass near a volcano or summit and tried to replicate it from there
Lighting strikes can in rare cases cause massive chunks of glass so maybe we discovered it that way
The Roman historian Pliny reported that the first man-made glass was accidentally produced by Phoenician merchants in 5,000 BCE, when, while resting on a beach, they placed cooking pots on sodium-rich rocks near a fire. The heat from the fire melted the rocks and mixed them with the sand, forming molten glass.
An important point to be noted: Archeologists have not been able to confirm Pliny’s recount.

That type of lemonade is really tasty, actually... without the condensed milk, what the hell. Just blend water, sliced lemons, and sugar, then rinse it on its own with no added water. Unless you taste it and it does need more of any ingredient, of course. That bitter, sour, and sweet mix of flavor is actually very refreshing.
I might have to try that sometime! :)
I believe they were trying to make Brazilian limeade, which is a drink made with limes, sugar, water, and yes, sweetened condensed milk. It's actually quite tasty, if you dont use the bitter lime rinds. You can look up a recipe online.

Thank you - loved this. Interesting thing about Google (which I hadn't thought about but is very true). Regarding the dyed napkin: wool *can* be dyed with food colouring (the artificial stuff like tartrazine and sunset yellow) with a small amount of acid (like vinegar or citric acid). If it's done correctly the water does go clear (just like ordinary dying). It does need to be heated though. So if the soft drink has artificial colour in it then wool can probably be dyed with it. (There is a whole thing of doing "Kool aid dyeing" - but I've not tried that - only food colours).
