“Mars Rover and Mr. Yeast” is going to be the title of our upcoming buddy cop movie.

“Because it’s not dangerous to eat, it’s safe to eat.” *This is going to be my high school quote.*

"How much sawdust can you put in a rice crispy" 19th century english breadmakers: ". . . "

My uncle used to make maple sawdust candies using maple syrup vanilla and pine tree sawdust. Usually right after Christmas, he'd cut up the tree, and save the sawdust to make the candy, it was actually like a 50/50 of sawdust to maple syrup, and they were good.

"at 100% its not even a Rice Crispy anymore' took me a couple of months but the math checks out there.

"It's not edible, it's eatable" That's how I describe my cooking

"Did you wash your hands?" "Hehe no" This severely dates the video

Adding sawdust to make flour etc go further was apparently pretty common in days of old in famine times. Victorian England they used to add chalk to bread to make it heavier and whiter which was the two indicators of 'quality' back in those days. And some added so much chalk that you could starve to death while feeling full cause there was so much chalk in it. This brought about the first food adulteration laws which banned adding of chalk (and no doubt other stuff) into bread.

Watching this at work, I asked my friend, who happens to work here, how much sawdust he thought you could put in. He asked if the question is how much saw dust before they notice something is wrong, or how much for them to know that it's sawdust.

Any rice crispy company: „Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN“

*100% Sawdust is just a wood block.*

I want to see double blind taste testing with 5% and 10% sawdust.

Whenever you see "cellulose" in the ingredients list of a food item, this is more or less what it is. Of course, food manufacturers generally don't put more than maybe ~10% cellulose in a product and generally much less than that in most things. More than that can really mess with taste and texture. It's basically used to give some structure/texture to packaged foods so they don't simply just fall apart or become a clumped mass by the time you go to eat them. A primary example is that powdered parmesan cheese you get at the grocery. Cellulose is added to keep it from clumping up into a hard mass that won't shake out and also helps keep moisture levels down inside of the can. It doesn't hurt you, it just goes right through your body. Of course, eating too much of it can act as a laxative, so maybe stay away from the 100% sawdust rice crispy treats.

When's that Japanese dude going to make a knife out of 100% sawdust crispy treats?

this video is such a classic, i come back to watch it from time to time. thank you William make more videos like this one maybe

Dude I got a rice krispy from halloween and it tasted like wood... Now im concerned

“You could probably build a house out of sawdust” Well yes frames are made out of wood

My takeaway from this is that you could probably sell the 100% sawdust as some type of high-fiber nutrition bar and people would probably buy it

4:53 I can't help but think that these *leading scientists* basically just recreated a piece of wood using sawdust.

4:32 bro I can't remember which one it is but some protein powder/preworkout definitely does that

"hey eat this rice crispy on camera" "ok" "ok now eat this piece of wood."

U guys remember the turtle from “Over the hedge” who straight up eats bark??? That’s this guy lmao

Im very glad people do this type pf stuff. Thank you

I want to see an experiment where the goal is to make "liquid wood" where you can pour the liquid into a mold and have it solidify into wood.

If a random man in a lab coat comes up to you and says, “Please consume this,” do not consume it.

"100% sawdust rice krispie" "Sir, that is a 2x4..."

Always nice to see Jesse and Walter cooking up some new recipes.

"its not edible its eatable" are words to live by

Ian: "can we add human hair?" *Human cake flashbacks*

"What if we eat the trees?" - the caveman who discovered fruit

This was very informative. Thank you

I’ve had this video in my suggested for like almost two years and I’m finally gonna watch it.

ian: “egg?” william: “yea, i think that’s what marshmallows are.” ian: “i think they’re animal”

Set these out at an office with a sign saying “free homemade rice crispies” and up the saw dust percentage by one every day until someone notices

Day: 1 of tricking my girlfriend into loving the taste of trees.

I’d love to see how this would go as a double-blind experiment.

"Has anyone ever tried to _eat_ a tree?" Vegans: **heavy sweating**

"Can we put human hair in it" Ian still yearns for the good 'ol days

i swear on my life that EVERY time you ask ian if he has washed his hands for whatever video you're making, the answer is always no 😭😭 love him

this has been in and out of my recommended for 3 years today is the day i will watch it

Tries the 100% one: "it's like chocolate cake, but without the chocolate and the cake and with wood"

"please consume this" 10/10 marketing

You had me in stitches the whole way through

you guys should have used wet sawdust, like wetting it with water BEFORE u used it in the "recipe". because especially the different look come from the dry sawdust soaking in the moist from the other ingredients. they wouldnt be as hard AND look more like the 0% version, and both have bigger impact on the "taste" as you might think.

"You could probably build a house out of marshmallows and sawdust." yeah well you see, I think you're just talking about wood

"Not EXPECTED to be toxic for ingestion" it's not expected because they never thought anyone would actually eat it lol These 2 may be the reason we'll probably be seeing "warning contains wood" on containers of sawdust soon lol

i have experienced this firsthand today, we got some rice crispy treats today and they quite literally taste and smell like wood i'm positive whoever made them saw this video and thought it was a great idea

"Did you wash your hands?" Says the guy who is putting sawdust in the Rice Krispey.

“You can kill someone with this” He feeds it to his friends

“it’s like a werthers original but it’s just all wood” yes that’s called wood

dude the ad bar qat the bottom of the video is amazing i would love other youtuber(s) to do that

I've seen this video floating around for two years and only now am I watching it.

9:29 "Please consume this-" **Pops it into mouth with zero hesitation**

When Ian said human hair, I immediately had flashbacks

"How Much Sawdust Can You Put In A Rice Crispy?" Nestle: "Hold my beer"

I thought this was the sequel to the sawdust bread...turns out it was the prequel

“I once snorted sawdust and since then everything smells like Home Depot” -someome applying to enter Loish’s facebook group

"Has anyone tried eating trees?" Yes Broccolis, actually

i wasn't expecting Simone to pop up as i worked my way through his older videos but it honestly checks out

This video is so good I came back two years later and remembered to like the video.

"do one of those mommy finger tricks" "That's gross never say that again"

"Has anyone tried to eat a tree?" Termites: *Bruh.mp3*

That you actually made and ate the 100% sawdust one had me laughing so hard

"Mom I want a Rice Krispy" "We have Rice Krispy at home" *Rice Krispy at home:*

MrBeast: lets plant trees William: lets take em’ down

Arbor Day foundation: plants 20 million trees “Starts to eat trees”

Idubbz is the most qualified here for chaotic cooking judging from his history with filthy frank

Ah, Valle Lindo! I played there a lot as a kid in the 90's. Nice to see it hasn't changed :)

Next do the reverse: how many Rice Krispies can we add to wood before a carpenter realises? 😄

In conclusion: William likes wood in his mouth, but not too much

Still one of the best videos on this platform.

Possibly the best video I've ever watched

“May cause physical discomfort to the respiratory system” That literally the only thing I figured was dangerous about saw dust.

Team Trees: *Plants 20 million trees* William Osman: "let's eat them all"

thanks for the tutorial is tastes delicious.

This changed my life, thank you

"Has anyone ever tried to eat a tree?" Me:...cinnamon...

"We have too many trees" *sad burning australia noises*

Thanks for the info bro

William and ian looking like jesse pinkman and mr white YEAH MR. WHITE! YEAH SCIENCE!

Alternate title: “Literally Just Tricking People Into Eating Flavoured Wood”

“What if we could... Eat... the trees?” Cue vsauce music

This video is frightening and hilarious at the same time

Little did he know I plan on trying this this winter 😋

Ian: let's put some dog hair on it Me: *I felt like I've seen this before*

I love that he’s using Nile Red beakers, makes this experiment even more scientific.

Dude. This is so trippy. I'm watching this video for like 5 seconds and then the tree your sitting in I think "that looks like the tree my friendfell out ofand broke his arm 25 years ago but of course this is a random video on the internet so of course it's not the same park with the same tree"...and as I'm thinking this the camera switches to a different angle and I all of a sudden see other memorable landmarks hit me all at once like a flood. The school in the background, the tennis courts, the wierd half circle steps with grass on them. It is.. this is valley Lindo park in Camarillo. Wow crazy.... even crazier there's a guy in my town spiking rice Krispy treats with sawdust.

0:18 “Thanks to Mars Rover and Mr. Yeast 😌”

Ian: “What about human hair” Oh iddupes those days are over, the trilogy is done. No more hair cake

“Subject please consume this-“ *immediately puts entire thing into his mouth*

the intro is giving me so much Americanised science documentary exposition and i love it

"Has anybody ever tried to eat a tree?" every badger ever: *looks away*

"I've enlisted the help of fellow youtube scientist- *shows idubbbz*

“has anyone tried to eat a tree” -William Osman CEO of veganism

"Oh this is great, what did you put in it?" "Sawdust." **falls over**

Well, technically when Germany invaded Leningrad in WW2, Russians would take the wheat based paste that held up their wallpaper and make wheat, then bread from it, and since the sawdust had no preservatives then, in was okay. Wood is digestible, just not well. So who wants wallpaper bread and sawdust!

“Are either of your parents a cow?” “They’re beavers actually. You’re pretty close.”

“Has anyone ever tried to eat a tree?” Here in Finland we have this bread called Pettu. Basically, bread made partially from pine tree's bark. It was eaten during the famine.

William Osman: "Trees everywhere! there are so many trees. One! Two! Three! Four! Five! We can conclude that there are at least five trees." Meanwhile, the sixth tree, sitting alone in the corner.
