      Those are not seaweed snacks. Those are sheets of roasted seaweed with sesame seed oil and salt to be eaten with rice. You put them on top of the rice and then press it down with your chopsticks open and then you pick it up and you have a little rice and seaweed roll. The americans screwed it up. People in asia do just eat them but that isn't their main use.

    • @sarahs.7211
      @sarahs.7211 День тому +26

      Drew couldn't pick an abacus out of a lineup with a floppy diskette, a darning loom, an orange peeler, and a protractor.
      To be fair, I couldn't isolate video games by their cover art sans titles, so no judgement. I just doubt he knows what an abacus is.

    • @Tamajyn
      @Tamajyn День тому +10

      @sarahs.7211 that's the beauty of it. Because Drew likely doesn't know what an abacus looks like, the chances of him assuming something he sees is one increases, any one of those items you named could be the elusive abacus, thus making my assertion even more accurate 😎

    I cracked up laughing when Trevor mixed the “seasoning” into the corn starch on the sheet tray with a spoon. We’re about the same age, I have 10000% done that when seasoning things on a tray instead of a bowl
