- This is the best React video you've ever seen.
- Nothing falls out! It's amazing!
♪ (accordion intro) ♪
- (FBE) So today, we are going to be showing you five foods
that you have been eating wrong. - Oh, come on!
You don't even know how I've been eating these foods.
Don't be presumptuous. - I've seen a lot
of those hack videos of things that you can do more effectively.
And I'm like, "You're right. I do do most things ineffectively."
(laughs) - I love to be told I'm wrong,
I've never said. If you give me a banana,
I'm gonna be offended that you think that I'm eating a banana wrong.
- I feel like there's all these fruit hacks
that I was just not aware of that might make my life easier.
- It was like a kiwi. I didn't know you could peel it.
You're supposed to peel it a certain way.
I was like... just buy it already sliced up, pre-sliced.
- I've produced a lot of content on the internet about food, right?
And I've written a lot of these you're eating things wrong.
And my biggest thing is a hamburger. You should be flipping upside down
before you eat it, because that reverses the flow of the juice.
So, I have a lot of stupid, hard-held food opinions,
and I cannot wait to see what other people think
I'm doing wrong, 'cause I've been on the other end of this so many times.
- "Genius tip for keeping caramel on candy apples."
- A frickin' Halloween apple! (laughs)
- (snorts) Wha? - What? What?!
- She is gonna pierce her hand! If anyone's watching this,
don't do it like that. You'll stab through the apple
and stab your hand!
- "Most apples are sprayed with a wax coating
to keep them shiny and flawless." Like me? Hooo!
'Cause I'm shiny and flawless. Yeah, okay.
- What do you mean that my apples have been coated in wax?
I feel upset. I feel mad. (laughs)
- (FBE) Wait. Did you not know that in general?
- No! Gotta pick my own apples now. I trust no one.
- I would never go, "Yeah, sandpaper,
that's part of a food process. Okay."
Wait. So, are you about to show me a candy apple
that has been sandpapered? - (FBE) No.
I'm gonna give you a candy apple and a piece of sandpaper
and a skewer. - (laughs)
- I'm so excited. All I had today was trail mix.
- Oh, this is everything. Are you kidding me?
Oh my gosh! This is the best thing
that's ever happened to me. I can't believe you're filming
the most positive moment of my actual life.
- Okay, so step one. - Feel the wax and moisture
start to come off. - I feel like I'm being
just messed with. - I feel like I'm in woodshop,
just, "Oh yeah, use the sandpaper to blah, blah, blah."
- If I was gonna be like a PTA mom, yeah, come through.
My apples will be the best.
- I'm gonna do it better than that video. You wanna know why?
Because she did it like this, right? What happens when you do that?
Goes through your hand! Shoots through!
Ah, infection! Boils! - I could see this just--
oh! (chuckles)
- Ah! (laughs) It's crooked. Oh, crap.
- This part, you just give it a classic October Halloween dip.
- Swirling it. The caramel doesn't necessarily seem
to be sticking to it anymore. - Okay. And it exists.
And then you just-- ahhh! Boom. Nailed it.
- ("English" accent) I will name him Herbert, and he's beautiful.
I'm proud of that. That looks like it's staying on.
It's not sliding off too much. It did it.
I forgot a step where you're supposed to dust it off
to make sure that there's no more... of this on there. You know...
- Mmm! Mmm! Mmm. (coughs) Just like Grandma used to make.
- I just got an idea. Oh! Like that. (gasps)
You didn't see that in the video.
This is the best React video you've ever seen.

- Ohh, you put the lettuce in. Okay.
- They need to work on that meat, though.
- I can't agree with this.
- So, they used the tortilla as the backup plan for if it breaks.
You still got something holding the troops together.
- I honestly don't eat tacos like tacos because of that issue.
I just break it and eat it with a fork.
- It's not like the lettuce is a glue that all of a sudden
(laughs) connects these two previously connected pieces of taco.
- When you put the lettuce on the bottom, I don't doubt
that it's gonna create almost even like a slightly water-tight,
semi-permeable membrane that's not only gonna prevent,
you know, breakage and spillage, but also prevent the actual taco shell
from getting soggy. But at that point, what's the fun?
You're just changing up the entire mouthfeel of that taco.
- (FBE) You wanna give it a try? - Yeah, I would love to try.
I love tacos. - Wow! You guys! This is so cool!
- It's got a strong stem. - It's like when people go to Chipotle
and they get a bowl and then they're like,
"Give me tortillas on the side, 'cause I'm being today."
- Let's see. - Taco shell.
And then I lay him down inside. - Use the lettuce as a foundation.
- It looks silly to me, but it's so useful,
so I'm really... I'm torn. - Those rice are like best friends.
They're like, "We stick together!"
- All right. This is cool. And you're seeing me
eat my first vegetable. (laughs) This is great.
I'd be shocked if anything came out of the bottom of this.
- It's not spilling. That's good. This is the spill test.
Nothing falls out! It's amazing!
- I'll test it since the person in the life hacks--
Oh. I just broke it in half. (laughs)
Wowww. (chuckles) - It's the stem.
It's the stem! I'm not gonna crap on this one.
Makes sense. - You know what I can do?
Look at this.
(chuckles) Mmm! - The whole thing's gone.
Boom shakalaka. That's pretty dope.
10 out of 10. I would definitely try it out
the next time I'm making tacos in this configuration.
- I hate how my mind can be changed like from just
the hardest held, stupidest opinion to then immediately going like,
"Oh, it cracked, but nothing's falling out!"
I'm actually gonna do this, and I kind of hate myself,
and I'm worried for my future because of it.

- I've been pouring juice wrong? - Sandora?!
Why'd they have to get juice I've never heard of before? (chuckles)
- What's so complicated? What's the hack?
- (chuckles) Oh, no! How is it working?
- Okay. They did make that look very ineffective.
- That's not gonna-- that's not gonna do anything!
- Is that legit? - That's not a hack!
- Ehhhhhh, that's debatable. - I like that I'm trying to figure out
the math of the situation. I'm like, well...
No. Yes. No. - If you just pour it slow,
there's no problem with pouring ju-- where's the juice at?
Where's the juice? - I've gotta try this.
I don't understand how that happened,
but I'm willing to put my life on the line.
- (FBE) All right. Let's give this a try.
- I'm trying to feel the-- 'cause it's like
a violent pouring motion to go from there.
It almost seems like it hits the lip and bounces up.
But if you're going from this way...
- It's the same thing!
- Okay. I kinda see it. - I mean, it does seem
a little bit easier. You know, if you just kinda--
yeah, it seems smoother. It seems like there's less
of a chance to spill. - I feel like it's that specific,
like, European-style container, you know, that really causes
all the spillage problems, but I believe the video.
I believe that I have been pouring my delicious
Armenian sour buckthorn juice wrong, and I'm open to changing.
- (man) Can I get ketchup? - "How to ketchup your fries."
♪ (lighthearted music) ♪ - (laughs) Who does that?
- I kind of have been there, though. - No, bro! You can't do it like--
Oh. (laughs)
- What are you doing?! (buzzer)
- I've actually done that previous one. (laughs)
The ketchup hack I'm about. I hated all the other ones.
♪ (suspenseful music) ♪
- Okay. Okay. - That was a very light coating.
I need way more ketchup than that to be happy.
- So many times I'm trying to open a ketchup packet
and it either gets the tiniest hole or you're just ripping the whole thing
down, you know, the entire spine of it.
So, I think anything that requires you to have finger dexterity, you know,
more than the average person, I'm already skeptical of.
- That one is interesting, though. You know, you just hold it
and you just dip. Hmm, hmm. But does it work?
- (FBE) Let's find out! - (laughs)
Such an infomercial. - So, the hack is that you just--
where it says "Tear here," you're like, "No, no.
No, wait one second. I'm going double the distance."
- You can't be deliberate about it, 'cause you don't wanna waste time
when you're eating fries in your car, so you're just gonna grab the ketchup,
just gonna kinda tear it open. And that's kind of a perfect
little french fry pocket. - You know, sometimes how it just
goes all the way?
- (snickers) - I kind of-- here.
It's already falling apart a little. - Hopefully, it's big enough. Boom.
(whispers) Here goes.
- Hoping it fits.
I'm excited.
(rumbling) (kaboom!)
Genius. I'll be introducing it into my life for sure.
- Oh, you know what I ran into? Look what happened.
It's not deep enough, so I'm smashing the fry
into the bottom of it. It's kind of working, though.
- I mean, it is a slower process, but it's a cleaner process,
so I would try to use this at some point.
- I'd probably try it, but then I'd probably end up
pour the ketchup on the fries. - Stupid. (chuckles) Stupid.
It's just not necessary!
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- Ooh, this is how I start with a lemon.
- I didn't think friction was involved.
- "Roll horizontally and vertically an equal amount of times."
Yeah, very easy.
- Okay.
- Ooh, okay. Looks pretty easy on this side.
- Do people just open it from the side?
I thought you always did it-- like, the top knob
is where you started. Maybe I've been doing it wrong.
- Huh.
- (snickers)
That's like saying, "Hey, you wanna know an easy way
to dice up an avocado?" and then you start throwing it
against a wall. - (chuckles) I can't with people
trying to make it look like it's really difficult
to do super easy things. - I'm open to it.
Maybe it's helpful. - Let's do it. (chuckles)
- Am I gonna change my mind in 30 seconds when I actually do this?
Of course. I'm sure I will knowing me.
- Four, five, six, seven, eight. This is like exercise.
- I'm giving it a nice massage. You know, that's how you get
your oranges to open up to you is start with a nice massage.
- Okay. Have I done it long enough? - Let's see if it works. Here we go.
Okay. - And just get it started that way.
And then it's a fun little bitter appetizer,
like drinking a Negroni before a nice plate of lasagna.
- I got a paper cut. It stings. - Yeah! Oh! (chuckles)
- I would say that that is a very valid hack.
I mean, this is like butter. This is ridiculous.
- This is just madness. So, that's just a piece of orange.
- I guess in certain parts it's coming off in one piece.
- It's peeling pretty easy, but again, there's no
scientific control in this. - Other people doing this
might be a lot worse than I am at it.
And it could just be 'cause I eat oranges, like, every day.
And I peel 'em really quickly, so I'm a pretty good orange peeler
is what I'm trying to see. - I don't want it to be
this rainmaker hack, where it's like, "So, you do this little dance,
and then you peel the orange, and the dance did it."
I'll put this up as a maybe. It worked for us now.
I'm not fully against it. - I think it works,
but again, as a fancy young Victorian boy
who is his own manservant and cuts up his oranges for him,
this is not particularly helpful to me.
- I'd try it again for sure. I would wanna see
if it worked well later. - (FBE) Of all the five food hacks
that you tried today, which, if any, are you the most curious to try
at home on your own? - I wanna get weird
with that taco hack, man. I wanna get weird with the tacos.
I wanna start lining my tacos-- you don't even need to use lettuce
just anything you can line your taco with.
- I think I'm really excited to try the french fry one at home.
I really wanna be able to eat my fries and have my ketchup too
and not spill it all over myself. - The orange one! Oranges!
Quick, fun, nutritious, breakfast. I love it. They're great.
I think it actually worked. Easily, the orange one.
- Definitely the orange hack. That was pretty mind-blowing.
- The lettuce. The lettuce makes sense.
- I wanna try the taco one. Put the lettuce at the bottom.
All the technology we have, and we're just now finding out
about the lettuce at the bottom of the taco? Mm.
Our priorities aren't in order.
