      i always like Alvin's no-waste approach. Make too much pie dough? Cool, we'll also make some snacks. Make a giant plate of food that no one could hope to eat on their own? Awesome, the crew has been working hard all day, let's feed them!

    The new website supposedly provides a powerful cooking experience though apparently only if you are willing to pay. While I can appreciate that he needs to make a living, the fact that that was not announced and mentioned upfront makes the new website feel really shady and discourages from joining. He should really do an update video explaining what the deal is and his reasoning behind the paywall given the ads and sponsorships that he already has for his channel.

    • @legolasfanboy6712
      @legolasfanboy6712 12 днів тому +4

      Yeah, that's how I feel. He has 10 million subscribers, he has his own line of cookware and kitchen utensils, he has paid for sponsored episodes (like a lot) and he has cookbooks. Why hide all of his recipes behind a paywall?
