- Hey everyone, it's Barry here.
Welcome to My Virgin Kitchen.
The show that puts the ki-chin in kitchen.
Just came up with that.
Probably won't do it again.
Hope you're well.
Today is a special gadget we do.
I have been bombarded literally in the last,
oh seven to 10 days, about this butter spreading gadget.
And it butter be good!
It better not offend anyone.
I don't know why it's called it, but ladies and gentleman,
(box thuds)
this is the Offundo, yup that is not my home address,
but that is the Offundo in there, I hope.
Because I've ordered it and it does say
Offundo on the sticker, British made, this
is effectively a tool to help you spread butter
on your bread,
and other dough based products.
So it does baguettes, and rolls and wraps, and
I've also got bagels, trying a bagel.
Designed for sandwich makers, so you guys who have
been tagging me in this video where this guy
is literally just going, pwu, pwu, pwu, like that.
And spreading a whole loaf of bread, in a matter of seconds.
- [Announcer] Five times faster than a knife.
Fast, easy. (tinkling music)
- Five times faster than a knife.
Yeah, so it's basically I think really designed
for someone that is a hardcore sandwich maker,
so if you've got a sandwich business,
or you just really like eating sandwiches.
I like eating sandwiches, I'm pretty sure this guy
would like eating sandwiches if he could.
Well that's it, it's in this box here.
It's called the Offundo and I have never had
so many requests (chuckles)
to review a gadget, in such a short space of time.
So here we go.
It's literally just arrived the other day.
And we'll give it a go!
(plastic rustling)
(plastic ripping and crinkling)
Yeah, it's got like a number on it.
Oh.
That was my door, hang on.
Nope, that was just the sound of Boston
leaning against the door, right.
Thanks mate.
So it's got a number (plastic crinkles)
it says, 19158 on it, could that be my personal
branding for it?
Offundo Butter Spreader, patent pending GB,
designed and manufactured in Britain.
Feels like Christmas Day.
(box rustling)
Here we go.
Butter spreader, designed for sandwich makers,
enables a rapid, consistent, hygienic application
of spread to bread.
Spread to bread, baby.
Easy to achieve a spread rate of 21 slices in 30 seconds.
Wow.
Hm.
All right I'm not gonna go into this too much,
but it's basically requires no power,
and you can spread a lot of butter on stuff.
There's lot of information.
Handmade and hand finished.
All right, it actually tells me how to get one,
but I think I've actually already got one,
so I'll bypass that.
(paper crinkles)
And another poster.
Ah, please tell me this is a postcard
or a sticker or something.
Oh no, this is a calling card, what?!
Thank you for your interest in our funder,
we are sorry we did not have time to speak with you.
Please complete this card and either post it to us
or hand it to us and we will be in touch
with you very soon.
That's from Kevin and Dooley Whitehead
who I think are the actual owners,
creators of this.
I did actually once review a butter gadget.
I've had a few problems with butter gadgets
where it actually cut, like an even square
of butter out of like a stick of butter,
which is more American.
And that was just horrible.
So I've really got high hopes for this.
(plastic crinkles) Woo!
Oh and there we go.
Not we got a business card.
Eh, I basically work for their marketing department now.
(laughs) Amongst all of this the only thing I don't have
is actual instructions.
So that would be good right now.
Oh, okay, all right we're all good,
we're all good. (metal thuds)
To avoid personal injury (slaps skin)
damage to the product, please be aware that if you
turn the Offundo upside down the plunger will fall out.
Please remove plunger before cleaning, all right.
In the interest of hygiene we recommend Offundo
is washed before first use.
I always do that to all my gadgets.
And incidentally if you're not already having
a Barry-thon please check out the full gadget
testing playlists, before departing.
There'll be a link up here or down below.
How to use Offundo, please view before.
It's a USB stick!
(plastic crinkles)
And this actually was quite expensive.
So I'm starting to feel why I've got,
(plastic thuds) Whoop, I think I broke
the USB stick.
We'll just wing it.
This is why I've already got my own bag.
Is this a bag?
I got a bag for life, look at this!
It's like my birthday!
(fabric rustles)
(laughs) I don't know what's going on!
(whistling a tune)
(water rushing)
(metal clinks)
So it really is just like two compartments.
There's this sort of thing that sits in it,
puts the weight on there,
and there's this thing which is basically
what stores the butter.
(metal scrapes)
Viola.
Thinking about it, it's not every day you get sent
a USB stick, so we'll have a little look shall we?
Let's see what it says.
That's a colour wheel, that's my screensaver
for my computer, all right?
(bell dings) - Easy use on sliced.
- Ah these are all the ones on the website, anyway.
Oh, does and don'ts.
This is, this is really good.
Spread must be over soft and smooth consistently.
Similar to that needed if using a piping bag.
The soft consistency is critical
as it enables an even and smooth application of spread
and avoids bread tearing or bread clumping.
Mix thoroughly by hand or with an electric mixer.
Do not overfill the hopper, the amount of spread expelled
through the aperture is controlled by the thumb pressure
on the plunger.
Oh!
I thought it was gravity, it's not.
It's not.
You actually have to push the plunger.
All right I think I'm all clued up now.
So I've got myself a loaf of bread.
(metal clinks)
Oh, we'll do that at the end for a time trial.
Some spreadable butter.
(box thuds)
So I'm gonna have to get that to room temperature,
it's already been in room temperature,
but I'm gonna spread it because it needs to be smooth.
I really wanted to do it with ice cream.
I've got a roll.
(box thuds)
I'm on a roll.
I got some bagels, 'cause I just wanted to see
what it would do to that, if it would actually
go around the circle.
I don't know.
I'm really gutted, 'cause you can use cream cheese
as it says in the video.
So I got some soft cheese spread.
Bizarrely I can actually be okay with this.
I don't know why, I don't like cheese unless
it's melted as you know.
But they used to do a chocolate capri one of these.
Ah!
They don't do it anymore, gutted.
So caramelised onion spread as well.
We should have some mayo in the fridge.
Yes we do, and we also have some jam,
so maybe we'll have some fun with that.
We also have salad cream, eh, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
All right, mixing bowl.
We're gonna stick the butter in that
to get it nice and smooth.
(laughs)
Mm, anyone hungry?
(butter splats)
I'm glad I read those instructions actually.
(butter sploshes)
(butter sploshing)
(sighs) I think will do.
(door scrapes)
Okay.
Here is have one sheet of bread.
Not from the pack that I bought,
we're gonna do that whole loaf
as a time trial.
So just see if it works on one.
(metal rings)
Take that out.
(metal clinking)
(metal thud)
Put
the butter.
(metal clicks)
Yeah, in there.
And I'm trying to sort of level it out a little bit.
Oh, some is coming out anyway.
All right, so that's a good amount of butter in there.
Put down our plunger.
(metal clinks)
And then push it forward, see.
So it's like that.
(laughs) Oh.
Can you see, it's coming out the sides.
And what we do is this.
My thumb is on here.
I'm gonna push down
and go, (groans).
(laughs)
Yes!
Look at that!
I want to do it to my face now.
No, I'm not gonna do it to my face now.
Did you ever see that thing where the guy
does it with sun lotion?
Nah.
Ew. (wood thuds)
Don't put it down like that.
Look.
Oh it's amazing!
Let's try it with a roll.
All right.
That did kind of work, I just didn't cut
the roll very straight.
(laughs)
Look at that!
Oh!
Oh, that's so cool!
Honestly this is really good.
You don't need it for a general household,
but like for a business like that.
It's insane!
All right Boston you can independent adjudicator.
We are now gonna time
how long it takes to do bread.
I got a whole loaf of bread, let's do it.
(plastic crinkles) Eh!
That is a loaf of bread, it's 16 slices.
I feel like I should flour my hands,
like I'm going in the Olympics or something.
We're gonna see how long it takes to butter all 16.
(clicking noises)
(laughs)
(clicking noises)
Oh yeah, do up there, that's easier.
(clicking noises)
(laughs) Look, come on!
Stop the clock.
(metal thuds)
Can you see that?
29 seconds, and I was a bit
unorthodox with it as you can see.
So pretty much a slice of bread every two seconds.
Amazing!
As I've said I've already prepped
Mrs. Barry and the kids that there's a lot of bread
tonight for sandwiches.
Also gonna make a bread and butter pudding.
And I have some friends coming over
to watch the football later, so.
Luckily that isn't gonna go to waste.
My last thing I'm gonna do.
Is try out some other fillings with it.
I'm gonna wash it as I go.
So we have four more pieces of bread.
I'm very impressed with this.
Yeah there's still more butter in it like that.
So I'm gonna take it out, put it back in the fridge,
'cause I can reuse that.
And I'll wash this.
Caramelised onion spread.
Amazing.
Mayonnaise.
(knife clicking)
I am absolutely in love with this thing.
I have no need for it.
But I love it!
There's jam in this one.
(laughs)
My last one, I was gonna do ice cream,
but then I thought well you need to get it
spreadable consistency and by the time you've done that
it would be kind of like melted anyway.
And nobody really wants ice cream on a piece of bread.
So,
I'll try some Nutella.
But as long as it's wet, like say tomato puree
for like a pizza party, you've got loads
of people coming over.
That's something that could really, really work.
Or you could use ketchup or brown sauce,
you're having a bake, you know sausage sandwich.
Now, Nutella, unless you warm it in a microwave,
(knife scraping and clicking)
is notoriously butch.
But I've given it a little stir up and,
if we give it a little push,
make sure it's near the front.
Uh.
(groans)
There wasn't much in there I had to really push it down.
(groaning)
I need more, but that did work.
Well, that'd make a good sandwich, wouldn't it?
No.
Part of me thinks it's gonna go through the hole
and just drop through it.
It doesn't promote the fact that it works on bagels.
Ah, I mean it kind of does.
But then at the same time you just get a massive
pool of butter falling out through the middle of it.
Yeah.
Don't use it on bagels.
So there we go folks, the Offundo.
And remember, it doesn't need butter ease.
As I say this would perfect if you have a sandwich store,
if you have a cake business with buttercream icing.
That could also work pretty darn good indeed.
But that is it, you guys were begging me to try this out,
so I've done it as quick as I can for you.
