It looks like creamy yogurt but I have to remind myself this is actually glue
If you've ever watched a food commercial for McDonald's for example
And you look at the burgers on the TV
commercial and it looks so big and like delicious and then you go into the restaurant and you order the exact same burger and you
Looks nothing like it
it looks like his sad less photoshopped version of it and it's not just McDonald's this happens like
Practically in every fast-food chain. So there's this video going around right now
They're basically shows all the food hacks and tricks that the food industry
uses for TV commercials for magazines for newspapers
for example, if you've ever watched a pancake commercial
Isn't it weird there? When they pour the syrup on top of the pancakes the pancakes look dry
They don't look so here at all. It's like weirdly perfect. This video claims that that's not actually pancake syrup
That is motor oil like literally something that you use to fix your car essentially for this video
What I thought we should do is expose the food industry and actually give these food hacks a try
I want to make two different versions of the food items one of them following the food hacks
And another one that is just the simple way of making the food that I would make it home
Let's expose the food industry. This is why I don't get sponsorships on my channel, but I would rather be poor that
Actually, no, I wouldn't for our very first hack this actually involves some beer and also some washing-up liquid
I know this is going to get weird. I don't drink alcohol
So this is actually alcohol free beer know that that's important. But with YouTube D monetization these days I am a good Christian boy
I love Jesus
Have you ever noticed that when you're watching a beer commercial?
The way they poured the beer it creates so much foam on top like way more
than than if you ever saw it in real life and this hack basically claims that the
Explanation for it is they actually add some washing-up liquid?
Mix with the beer. So when you're watching it on TV, you're actually watching some soap and not just beer
So we're gonna pour both of them one of them normal and the other one following the food hack and let's see what happened
So for our first experience, we are going to pour the beer just normally like anyone boy
That's a lot of foam
I set up a timer and this is what he looks like five minutes after so this time we're on we're gonna add
The soap. Oh, that's gonna be weird. Maybe a little bit more. Let's see what happens. I
Used the same amount of beer as well. So like we're being very scientific here. So, let's see what happens in five minutes
It's been around five minutes
And as you can see this foam lasts a lot longer, it looks a little more like fluffier
But he also doesn't look real like in real life. It doesn't look like it. I'm gonna be honest with you guys
I'm not entirely sure if the first food hack actually made any sense
I mean it was different, but it really wasn't that different
I feel like the dish soap didn't really add that much to the look of it. But this next one
This is probably one of my favorite ones because we're gonna use some maple syrup and also motor oil
This is to use in your home in your bicycle in your car according to the hack
This is what they use for
Pancake syrup so that it doesn't absorb
Into the actual pancakes and also and then we're gonna use some cardboard as well because I guess this is what they use to make
pancakes look fuller and bigger on TV
So I'm gonna do the presentation as if I was doing this at home, and these are all the same type of pancakes
I'm gonna save the two nicest ones to put on top. That's a nice stack of pancakes
So then I would probably just add some butter on top
There we go with a little bit of butter
And then last but not least I would add the maple syrup. And this is the way we would present it. Oh
Shoot
See that was a lot of syrup
It's not even been 30 seconds as you can see this syrup is just completely absorbed into the pancakes
Like there's nothing like on top
So this time around we're gonna put the same exact pancakes
But then we're also gonna add the cardboard on top and keep in mind. This is the exact same camera angle and everything. So
If these works it works, it looks a lot taller and fuller. It kind of does look better
So we're gonna add the butter on top and this time around we're gonna use some motor oil instead of syrup
Let's see if it's any different. Oh
That dripping does look beautiful if we put the pancakes side-by-side
I guess the cardboard really does work
Like it looks a lot better but the syrup absorbed kind of similarly, which was the whole point to used motor oil
It's because it's supposed to not absorb into the pancakes balm besides
I actually prefer the color on those ones and I'm gonna eat them right now. So let's move onto the next one
Let me just tell you that
he only gets weirder with this video because for this next one we're gonna use some chocolate chip cookies some whipped cream and
Also some shaving foam for this first one
we're actually going to be using some whipped cream and we're gonna do like a little
swirly effect on top and basically the hack claims that if you use shaving foam
This is a lot easier and it doesn't melt so we're gonna do the normal one first
That was actually pretty good I mean, I'm sure this will melt in like I would say three minutes let's give this a try
Oops even is this let's try again, but this is very difficult guys. I promise it doesn't look difficult, but it is
He almost looks like cartoon like and he literally actually doesn't move
Look at this like you can turn it upside down and he stays exactly the same
Well, the other one is just melting away. So this one is 100% approved
I'm 99% sure that I'm about to blow you guys its mind because what if I told you that
Every time you watch a cereal advert, you're actually not seeing milk
They actually use glue according to the video
They use PVA glue
instead of milk so that the cereal doesn't actually sink down so I'm gonna prepare a normal bowl of cereal and then one
Using the method from the video and let's see if it looks any different. We're gonna start with the milk first and I know
No one agrees in me that the milk should go first
But I feel like if you're making a TV commercial you don't want to add too much cereal
So it makes sense to do the milk first
And then I'm going to strategically add the cereal. Oh, that's so annoying he goes
Straight to the bottom of the bowl. Let's try to add more and then a few
blueberries on top
And there you go
Before the commercial version. They actually use some jelly
this is some jello that I just made being the bottom and then did that we're gonna add some glue and like
wow, that does actually
Kind of look like milk. Let me add a little bit more
To cover all the jello
There we go. I just looked on camera and he looks exactly like milk. They 100 percent useful
So like we did before we're gonna add the cereal
And last but not least the fruit
We could still add more cereal but I think this is good enough to show you like the difference between the two
This is 100% Will they actually use when they make these commercials because I mean that's just British
It was like the difference between the two I can't make this stuff up because for this next one
We're gonna use some baked potatoes and wait for it. We're also gonna use some tampons
I would also like for you guys to keep in mind that I had to go to the supermarket and ask for tampons and I
Really wanted large ones because I think that's how it's gonna work best
So I asked the lady for jumbo tampons and she looked at me and said do you mean large?
There's no such thing as jumbo tampons. I probably saw that in a movie
This is I am so sorry girls watching this. I need to be educated on this
I can't have created this black backdrop
For this one because I think this will make it easier to see whether this works or not
This would had claims that if you soak a tampon in some hot water that it's gonna be very steamy and if you hide it
Behind the food item. It makes you look like the food item is so hot. It creates more steam
so we're gonna make one regular baked potato and then we're gonna hide some tampons behind it and see if he actually
Does create more steam so here comes our first potato straight from the microwave
And
This is the amount of steam that comes from our first one you can barely see it on camera
There's literally no much steam. So here we go the tampons
I feel like we she's too or even maybe more just to make sure this actually works. There's like a little stringy thing to pull
Why is he not coming out?
Wow, that really I don't know how girls do end. Oh
Oh it turns out it was pretty simple
I have a feeling that this one is gonna work because what kind of person would come up with this unless he actually
Worked let me hold them by that little string so they don't get submerged. So we're gonna add
The hot water. Oh my god. What happened to them?
I'm no expert here, but I'm pretty sure this is not supposed to happen. So we're supposed to add this
behind
It's quite steamy pop
Hey just it's very
Difficult to hide that in my work if you have like a big shake and it's like enough to cover the tampons
Otherwise, you're just gonna be making the weirdest commercial in the world
What if I told you guys that every time you see ice cream in a commercial? You're not actually seeing ice cream
So according to this food hack because ice cream melts so quickly
They actually have to come up with this make sure that it's supposed to replace ice cream and it's made of shortening
Syrup and food coloring and it's supposed to look exactly like ice cream and I saw the video and it did look very similar
I don't know if this is gonna actually work but let's scoop out a
Normal scoop of ice cream and then compare it to the fake commercial ice cream
we all know what a scoop of ice cream looks like but I'm just gonna do it for the video so we can see the
actual difference
We may need to do more than one
So here's what a scoop of ice cream looks like I mean this will be melted in literally like 30 seconds
I don't even need to film it because we know that's just what ice cream does
According to the video to make the fake ice cream. We need some shortening then we need some syrup. I
Don't know how much so I'm gonna play it safe and last but not least food colouring so I'm gonna make blue ice cream
It doesn't look a lot like ice cream no gonna lie. All right guys here goes nothing
It doesn't even wanna oh
shit
That's right to scoop it I mean I'm not gonna eat this so
It looks like ice cream like about to melt
Side-by-side. It's kind of ridiculous that we went through all our work to come up with that
And so I'm gonna say that if you keep your ice cream, really really cold
It's kind of realistic that they use real ice cream for adverts not to even mention the fact that getting this caller would be
Practically impossible with a lot of things that you see online
I think sometimes we take everything is in this is a fact, this is true when you watch a
Commercial a lot of the times the stuff that you're seeing is not the real product and I think this is definitely something that is
Important for everyone to know but I do also have to say that
Not every single one of these hacks actually works at least not for me
Maybe I didn't follow it correctly, which is a very likely scenario
but I felt like an
Investigator today like find these things out and see if this is like this secret for things to look amazing
So hopefully you guys enjoyed this video as well. There's a lot more hack specially for savory foods
So if you want to watch that
Next time don't forget to give this video a like it would mean a lot to me
And also, please don't forget to subscribe and switch my notifications on it's Christmas if you're thinking of getting me anything for Christmas
I don't have a pure box. So just stop that Bell. I will count that as a present
I'm joking, but I love you guys. Hopefully you guys enjoyed this video, and I will see you guys on my next one. Bye
Bye if nothing else comes out of this video. At least I got myself some ice cream
