I just recently started watching you guys and absolutely did not expect to see something like that come up. I love it though!

My gf and I just died laughing watching the parody. You're all amazing!!!!!! We love your guys show, keep it up!!! ..... Jamie you're a god...!!!

That can't be unseen

That video is hands down my favorite one of yours 😂😂

Haha I rewatched it a few days ago! Still one of my favourites

As well as some of the previous gadgets. But I agree I love that they are finally taking people with some kind of impairment into consideration. Turns these kinds of videos into more educational reviews rather than blokes just ripping into gadgets.

Agreed- my 84 year old Mum with arthritis in both hands would love it.

Yeah there are some gadgets they've reviewed before where it was obviously meant for people with some kind of impairment but they didnt take that into consideration and it was frustrating. Ben finally acknowledged it and I'm so happy for this series again!

I came down here to say the same thing!

I will say them immediately turning it into a joke delegitimized the sentiment to me...

I have dyspraxia, and don't see it with one eye, we had one growing up too so agree.

That is an absolutely brilliant idea! Have the chefs pick a recipe that could use a lot of uni-taskers, and then the normals could use the gadgets to recreate it. Since technically, the gadgets are for 'normals'.

That would be fun..........to watch :)

great idea.

Isn't that Cutthroat kitchen?

I love this idea!!

Bee Strick it could be useful to people with disabilities too. Not useful for able-bodies people, but may be great for the others.

@@lepuslepus1108 thats a great point!

My joints pop out of place due to ehlers-danlos syndrome, I could really use that can opener. I avoid buy things in cans because it hurts and takes a long time to open. Not only elderly or disabled people could use it, what I have is called limited mobility and I'm 29.

some of them, are for people with reduced mobility -- the can opener, the pasta twirling fork, etc.......

So glad they mentioned this! I hate when people call gadgets useless because they don't realize the implications for less able-bodied individuals. Good on you, Sorted!

I came to the comments to say the exact same thing. It grinds my gears to hear something called useless when it isn't for abled people to begin with.

@@MsWicicala I suppose it's fair enough if not advertised as such, in most cases it seems to be coincidental

@@lukemacinnes5124 It feels like a wasted opportunity when the manufacturer praises it as a gimmick instead of a lifesaver for a disabled user. It's right there and you miss it, people! :)

I feel like it’s definitely up to how good the gadget is. Because I had a girl I knew who used a utensil similar to the twirling fork in a previous episode, and while the concept itself is useful, the actual product sucked and was actually useless, it broke down easily, didn’t hold a charge, and would randomly start moving, vibrating and spinning after about three weeks of using for about 80 minutes a day (not continuously, but a total time of each meal for the full day). So, the product is only as good as the thing they test. An automatic stirrer is a great idea for anyone who can’t stand, stir for a long while, etc, but the one they showed only was able to stir in a middle circle, making that specific product from that company useless. The concept can be great, but the execution can be total crap.

even as someone with some forms of issues the items are supposed to help with most of them are still very shit or have their own issues and the companies are really just throwing up its for people with disabilities as a shield to deflect criticism

Ha...maybe....

@@SortedFood Off topic, but can you do a video where you all cook something that specifically uses Pickled Garlic?

I had that egg timer 20 years ago

Well if used in a large sauce pan, aka something at last twice as wide as it, then it could.

Carmenka Sunday dad jokes and Wednesday dad jokes. Weak jokes all week.

I just rub my hands on the inside of my sink after handling garlic, and the smell goes away instantly.

@@livingchaosmatrix Same, I assume they failed it for not using it on the tops of their fingers and in between. I've found it works better without soap for the first pass, then again with soap.

ColdShoulderMedia They must have done something wrong... or maybe they rubbed it too much on their hands?

@@livingchaosmatrix MMhmm we always got told rub the faucet.

@@GameNinja13 It`s all made of the same material I`d assume.

If it had a middle piece it might have been perfect

I was given a similar stirrer many years ago and I've found that it's just useful for heating milk...

I think the problem with the stirrer isn't that it doesn't work, it's that it's supposed to be used in pans, not pots so it can get the middle.

@@dashkataey1740 how would it get the middle in a pan?

@@MrWizardjr9, in a larger vessel, it moves all over and thus the middle is scraped.

Yeah, I miss the pretentious or not videos. Would love to see more of those again as well.

It's a miracle!!

Helen Taylor don't you mean cloche? ;)

TOOTHLESS!! Sorry for the comment. 🤣

I hate that he keeps asking us, it pissed me off and makes me not want to watch these videos with him in it.

I agree 100% I am watching for their personal verdict.

Indeed and it's not like we have any input anyways lmao

Well the idea is that just because he may like it/not like it doesn’t mean you’ll share the same opinion

He’s British! When he says that it he’s really say “This shit is useless.”

i have weak wrist joints which means stirring for more than 5 minutes causes me so much pain so that automatic stirring thing would be perfect!

​@@TheFlrom A lot of those "funny" gadgets are for people with disabilities and the can opener is a good example. Another is the thing to help you put on socks that you see often on youtube. Emily, I'm sorry about your wrist situation but I think that stirring thing (while brilliant in theory) is rubbish.

I could also really use that can opener, my joints pop out of place, opening cans takes forever, also hurts.

@@marisamayer3628 Yeah the stirrer is a great idea, but since it doesn't seem to stir the middle it isn't overly helpful.

Yes, that's actually the case with quite many "useless" (or less useless) gadgets. As a leftie automated ones also solve the problem of doing the things the right-handed way (that I never seem to quite figure out)

Me too. I can't stop replaying in it🤣

I found it works too, but I agree with James, you don't want to have to stare intensely at it the whole time. You want to set an alarm, do other things and then when you hear the buzz come back and have your eggs.

it's been 11 months but I wanted to say I'm sorry. and their videos do the same for me. whenever I feel low or have no energy, they give me the will to be again.

Lol same

How he keeps reminding us all The time.

@@n1s2e that's why he keeps reminding us.!🤣

I found this comment agian now. Completly forgot that i answerd it and was about to write the exact same thing agian

Yeah, I was very hopeful for exactly that reason but...nope, failure to launch.

orange circle it’s a vibrator trying to be a kitchen utensil.

It has a design flaw, a pretty easily fixable.The company making them should attach a rotor like on a ship on a stick to stir the middle.

That stirring gadget actually works. The reason it didn't stir the middle of that pan is because the pan isn't big enough.

You put the stirring gadget to the edge of the pot so it stirs and moves at the same time

Gordon Ramsay hates them especially Ready Steady Cook!

Love cooking shows, the problem is different tastes for different people. So the food good be great, but these particular judges don't like something in it (or like in chopped don't like the secret ingredient) and then the contestants don't get a fair shot.

@@Kraken_Dawn yes, there is a lot of bias. There is one where a judge hated onions. He was pissed and marked down a contestant who then proceeded to use them in every dish. I wanted to scream at the judge - IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU!

@@NyanyiC Scott Connat it however it’s spelled. Episode of Chopped iirc. To be fair the chef gave him a second dish with raw onion knowing Scott didn’t like it.

I second that!!!

PrehistoricVicar I second!!

Yes!

You could do two rounds (everyone goes two times). It would be hilarious to see you trying to come back to your ideas...

jesus wept

@@annaprzesmyk726 ohhhhhh

Exactly, most gadgets that people see as useless or junk were originally meant for disabled people

Lindsay September What top hat? I don't get british jokes and i'm british.

@@paulodepablo3649 lol I never said hat

Lindsay September But i did say hat. What's wrong?

SO frustrating, right??

Yes...its the worst! 😣

Totally agree; couldn't stand to see the middle just sitting there! WHY?!?!?!?! A close second is that stupid hand cleaner. I'm with James, "Just wash your bloody hands!"

@@raymondschneider5217 YES!!! Exactly!

@@raymondschneider5217 agreed on both counts!

Next time they should make chefs test mobility assisting gadgets having their dominant arm tied behind back. Might give them new perspective what some of the "silly" gadgets are designed for. And watching them trying to get even gadget out of package without both hands might be funny.

That’s why it was good of Ben and James to comment about the way these gadgets are more useful for people with mobility issues.

Shame it took them literal *years* to even acknowledge the people telling them disabled people exist (and even then immediately turned it into a joke. or flat out ignored it.)

@@3possumsinatrenchcoat Well, I don't think it was treated as a joke, and this is a "chef's review", so they are really looking at items for how useful they are from that point of view. Without being an expert in assistive technology, I'm not sure anyone could see how something might be useful to every type of disability, and expecting that would be silly. Just seeing how well the items work really is useful information (like the stirrer. I agree with the other commenter that it would be very useful IF IT WORKED!) But the reviews are appreciated and it can only help expand their audience to acknowledge the uses of items beyond those with the same physical capabilities that the chefs possess.

Or with with a brace or something the impedes wrist/hand movement in both hands.

There should be one coming out soon!

How about one where they each make a dish with them.

I think it's partly due to the pan. The rounded corner on the bottom prevented it to stir all over the place

@@vZuijlen If it could move freely, it would just fall over. No matter what you put that thing on, it is garbage.

Besides, come on, automatic *stirrer*? If you can't stir you really can't cook, and if it's something that needs constant stirring then it's probably something you want to keep an eye on at all times anyway

That's precisely WHY an automatic stirrer would be great: so that someone who can't stir for long can cook. @@wloffblizz

I know you are joking, but they probably could make a list of canned ingredients, that a chef would not be ashamed of using.

Real chefs, and any child over the age of 8 should be capable of opening a can

Its perfectly fine to use canned versions of tomatoes, beans etc as a chef. Tomato for example is great to can to preserve the ripeness to use in off-season, or simply when making tomato sauce in a pizzaria. You would have a hard time walking into a restaurant's pantry and not find any canned goods.

@@Whiskypapa Was about to say this as well. If you're cooking them down anyway, Fresh ripe tomatoes > Canned tomatoes > unripe fresh tomatoes.

@@MedievalSolutions They could possibly do a canned food episode, maybe in relation to donating to a foodbank, where it's all just how to make good food only using canned goods.

Wait, I'm behind. What is the Sia video?

It definitely needs a central arm, easily done, two middle arms opposite each other, seemed obvious and have to wonder why the inventors didn't think of it in the first place

That's so funny. My mom has the spoon/spatula/measurer thingy and was SO excited about it. I've tried it and... meh. I'd rather just use a normal silicone spatula or an actual spoon, although the end of it is stiffer than normal spatulas, so maybe it would be better with mashed potatoes or cookie dough.

Too bad they don't sell those...

Yeah and ultimate battles too

Since most of us don't rub smelly ingredients like that, the metal bar (or sink) does work wonders!

Maybe if they used it in a large sauce pan, instead of a medium sized pot.

You can also use stainless steel spoons, it works perfectly for me.

Or you could just have scented soap. It's cheap and a not that big quantity will probably overpower the smell of the garlic you rubbed in your you weirdo.

My partner bought the stirrer to try and honestly it is rubbish. Have tried it in pots of all sizes but if it’s going in anything thicker than tomato soup then it basically grinds to halt. Got the egg timer though, although I got it from the pound shop for a pound surprisingly, so they were rippped off for price and find it works really well.

Ben failing at opening a can with a normal opener, had me laughing. "Because obviously, a Chef can open a can." XD
