I thought this was Buzzfeed until I saw barely any dislikes
+Jess Bazile LMAO
Not enough subscribers to get dislikes
+Jess Bazile These guys are better than Buzzfeed.
They aren't as SJW as Buzzfeed. That channel is a cesspool of garbage and nonsense sprinkled with actually funny/entertaining videos.
+John Baker You know, I love when people use the term SJW non-ironically. It means I know for sure that they have nothing significant to say.
i'd be better if they were given just "food" to review and then at the end they're told it's microwaved food. Them knowing already gives them like 10x more bias
it'd
Agreed.
I was thinking the same thing.
Your hired
You don't need much talent to realise its microwaved food. It will come out to the oven hot throughout unlike in normal cooking where different parts have different temperatures. Also the textures are quite different from normal food.
If this was buzzfeed, they would represent the chef's as 2 gay men and 5 women.
and all of them would be of diffrent race and maybe 1 or 2 trans people
No white gay guys
Yup! The only white people would be the two gay guys and a woman with blue/green hair. Straight white men aren't allowed.
Dont forget the Muslim and a black female that feels empowered to be confident
and Kieth
Now Gordon Ramsey judge the chefs food

RAWWWWWWWW
Gordon Ramsay reviews microwave dinners
lmao
+aj weiss precisely
+aj weiss 😂😂
Just search "Gordon Throws Chef Mike Out of a Window" on KZhead. There's your answer.
+57Royston yep I saw that 😂
i thought this was a buzzfeed video
PokeBoii lol same
fuck buzzfeed
true
Buzzfeed is shit
why
Imagine if Gordon Ramsay did this... oh Lord..
it's.....RAWWWWW YOU DONKEYH !
Leo Tayeb kok
FUCKING BLAND, NEEDS MORE OLIVE OIL, YOU FUCKING DONKEY IT'S RAAAAAAAAAWW, BLAND BLAND BLAND!!!
Jokes aside, he'd know better and would drastically lower his standards.
Michael Kawamura i read ur comment in my head with gordon's voice lmao
When you've worked an 8 hour day your tired as all fuck you don't want to be fucking around with kale and steaming salmon, that is why microwave meals exist. Its 2am, you've had several beers and a joint or two and you have the munchies so bad, a Rustlers burger tastes like a steak from the Savoy hotel.
thats why you can spare an hour or two on a weekend to cook a few meals, put it in the fridge, heat it up later, its not expensive but definitely healthy, its all doable, I do it and work 8 hrs a day, no excuses
+sootherbs Try 12 to 14 hour days in a real restaraunt. Your microwave will become a beloved friend. No matter how talented you are, re-heated food will always taste and feel like shit. Why not go the cheap easy route and instead of cooking at home as well, spend some time with friends and family or pursuing a hobby on your off day/hours?
EraseMeWhole not saying i manage it every time but lots of times yes and it all counts towards my health which i value, and i don't want to count on cheap food because that's what i put in my body and that's how i will feel, you will not feel energized or healthy and probably will end up with an illness and then you'll have plenty of time to think if it was worth it...anything that takes any effort isn't easy in life so i guess we all chose what we prefer.
+sootherbs Hey man, you said it yourself. No excuses.
Exactly, microwave meals are great I love them
Imagine if Gordon Ramsay was taste testing that food.
WHY DID CHICKEN GO OVER THE ROAD? BECAUSE YOU DID NOT COOK IT.
+Munakoor I read that in his voice
THIS SQUID IS SO UNDERCOOKED I CAN STILL HEAR IT TELLING SPONGEBOB TO FUCK OFF
+JoJo The Dragon WHAT THA FOK IS THAT!
THE FOODS SO BLACK, IT STOLE MY BIKE
I knew this wasn't a buzz feed video because I used a tool called reading.
Lol.
I'd rather call reading an ability or a skill.
+Galiant the Paladin it's also a learning tool
+ItsPrettierInPink it's a shame more people don't use that tool/skill/ability (added all 3 words for the picky feckers who just have to moan about something lol)
I'm done.
"Terribly shame a cow died for that" 😂😂😂

Don't tell them they made it in a microwave next time. Or give them something homemade and tell them it's microwaved
you can tell the difference
If anyone eats those burgers, don't put the bun in the microwave. Put it in the toaster instead for a few seconds to just heat it up. Doesn't go soggy.
I do that I actually like them.
+Nikon005 I'm glad I'm not the only one that does this!
+Connie Brendel It is indeed
I would grill the burger and the bun, then add extra condiments to make it slightly better
I just put everything into a hot oven. The meat slightly longer than the buns
This is like high end fashion designers trying on Chinese reseller clothes from eBay you can get for a couple of bucks.
Really? Even I eschew a microwave for everything save reheating and I'm the laziest cook at home.
+Alastair Ward That doesn't have anything to do with what he said?
Sink Hole the question mark you added to the end of that sentence leaves me as unsure as Mystyckhan's simile. I meant that you can cook lazily (or poorly, I accept criticism) and still make something nice that doesn't involve a microwave. One pot recipes really are my go to.
+Alastair Ward but what does that have to do with his comment??
Sink Hole the double question marks are equally confusing, is that still a question? The stuff I make without a microwave is still pretty cheap too, I don't use any supermarket's finest stuff, just bog standard.
Please don't say stupid shit like "Microwaves denature food". All heat denatures the proteins in food. Don't quote something you read in a pseudo-science chain email.
fuck you are such a pathetic waste of life
Milkshake541 damn
he is right you know all proteins denature when exposed to extreme temperature changes
Although kinda correct, Enzymes are the proteins that denature, as their active site is warped by the heat, meaning it will not match the substrate meaning it cannot catalyse reactions.
Chefs should learn some basic biochemistry so they don't say shit like "microwave denatures food and it's ultra bad".
Gordon Ramsey would have a had a better reaction
I was just thinking that then scrolled down to see it as top comment xD

hahha
read that is aggressive gordon accent. satisfied
Anyone who says "I'd rather starve" has never starved. (Edited for the stupid people who comment without watching the video)
Truth.
+R.A. Bobby B Ever heard of the word 'hyerpbole' ?
Sept 0 Of course I have, silly. Like, 300 years ago, I learned that. Duuuuh.
+Annabel Rhia Turner He actually used the word starve
so fucking true
Shouldn't have told them it was microwaved and see how they thought it tasted.
yeah, I bet the reaction would be very different
+FatalFishing99 Oh, exactly what I was thinking. Some were there to taste it and one or two to simply dump on it before they touched it - *if* they touched it at all. Granted, that burger looked awful, but there's nothing wrong with reheating any number of dishes in the nuker.
for real...misleading title IMO thats what I thought I was clicking on.
+FatalFishing99 if you're a real chef you should taste the difference if it's microwaved or not.
wrong. thats a bold faced lie. in fact according to science microwaves cook food far more efficiently than an oven. A microwave oven uses “dielectric heating” to cook food. This is accomplished by using microwave radiation to heat polarized molecules within the food. This excitation is fairly uniform, leading to food being more evenly heated throughout (except in dense objects) than generally occurs in other cooking techniques,In other words, molecules that are electric dipoles, of which water is the most efficient, rotate back and forth; the friction between them creates heat. This process is “dielectric heating.” The literature reveals that microwave heating occurs by two mechanisms, which are dipolar polarization, and ionic conduction (Kingston and Jassie, 1998, Mingos and Baghurst, 1991 and Taylor et al., 2005). Dipolar polarization is by which heat is produced in polar molecules like water. Dipoles align themselves by rotating with the electric field associated with waves… In conduction, dissolved charged particles (ions) in a sample oscillate back and forth under the influencing electric force of microwaves creating an electric current. This current faces internal resistance because of collisions of charged species with neighboring molecules or atoms, which cause materials to heat up (Metaxas, 1996 and Ponne, 1996). The conduction principal has much stronger effect in comparison to dipolar polarization for heat producing capacity (Keiko, 2003).
Oh I thought this was buzzfeed lol
Same
Rhain Piquette But better
ME TOO WTF
titles are way to buzzfeed tho
it cant be buzzfeed. they didnt blame the bad food on the patriarchy.
It's not supposed to be good, it's supposed to be cheap.
And, quick.
Darryl Rose True that dude, true fucking that.
Cheap can be good, unless you are a lauzy cook.
anomaly.dab S your saying that true is fucking that?
The sad part is, they're neither.
I actually thought this was Buzzfeed for about 3 mins
I thought it was buzzfeed until I read this comment
+alexis9198 this isn't buzzfeed?!
+alexis9198 same
Andrew98 I thought your profile picture was a piece of hair.
RikGaming L same
this is why i keep my pets and myself on a strict vegan diet. we only eat the best vegans.
I thought you were going in one direction and you went the other.
L
L
+Ben Dover thats kinda hurtful
you eat vegans
"It tastes like a science experiment" LOL
Glad I wasn't invited
if you would put a 5 star dish infront of them they will still flame it.
+Delta TR Yeah agreed. Plus microwave meals are tasty! One tiny bite (If any at all) and they rip into the meals as if they had tasted the entire thing.
+ZeliardFTW are you 12?
s21411 No I am way older. These guys just act as if microwaved meals are meant to taste like upper class restaurant food. Of course it wont. The thing is that they taste better than what is implied. BTW, what does being younger imply? I wish I was 12, more years for me!
ZeliardFTW Nigga microwaved food tastes like shit.
ZeliardFTW They gave two of the items between a 7 & 9 out of 10--I don't know how much more you expect of them. Microwave food tends to taste like shit. I've had one of those microwave burgers before and they're basically inedible.
you're buying it in a box and sticking it in a bing bong
L
+TheRsVidzz Bing Bong
Who's your friend who likes to play? Bing Bong, Bing Bong
IM STILL SENSITIVE
DONT MAKE ME CRY! D':
Would have preferred to see them test the food and give their opinions BEFORE you told them it was microwaved. They've already decided their bias well in advance.
This channel is like, the new buzzfeed but without the cancerous stuff
+Alfred Alfred mate that is not what I meant, I would definitely watch any content male or female, but with the buzzfeed content trying to stuff our throats with cancerous content, not just the feminism stuff but there is more cancerous content besides that, like where they just ask some people to get high and do random stuff
Niles River lol this channel did the same
Oh relax. They are all just fun videos. It's KZhead. Don't take it so serious, regardless of channel.
"Maybe if you're poor." Or maybe if you're a middle class working person who doesn't have the pallet of a fancy chef
+Nik Weinfurter The selling point on microwaved dinners is the convenience not the taste. I think it's for the people that is too lazy to cook or doesn't have time to cook a proper meal.
+Christian Nugraha I beg to differ, there are A LOT of easy meals one can cook/order that would be way better. Cut it short, this is for LAZY people.
M-T Fair enough.
Hot pockets... Only thing to come out of a microwave to get a 10/10
This should have been SO much longer! I was crying watching these guys. :-)
Omg I've been waiting for this for a long time so entertaining keep these videos up
Sike
"A shame a cow died for this" Wow thats actually so true
+CheerUp2 Ya, that is going to stick with me now
watch earthlings on youtube
+CheerUp2 the cow was already dead and put into the package before they even planned to make this video.
why do all chefs look like serial killers
IKR!!!
+Atlas because we're all fucking crazy
That makes sense. They kill animals on a daily basis
+Yusen Zhang what a stupid comment
lmao chill
"Terrible shame a cow died for that"
"I'm not converted, and I'm a little concerned." 😂
Thanks for watching! Don't forget to subscribe for 6 new videos each week if you're new to our channel.
You should do a blind French fry taste test from every restaurant possible
You guys should try carolina reapers, ghost peppers, calorie-mate, dum dum vodka and black black gum.
I love this it's like Irish Buzzfeed. The accents are lovely❤️❤️❤️
Facts. Just a question if you had to marry any food what would it be????mine would be hmmmm lemmi think I GOT IT PIZZA
Olivia O Brien why would you marry bread sauce and cheese
This is like, poverty Buzzfeed.
+Thomas Fox WOAH... too true...
Hell yes.
+Thomas Fox It's Irish Buzzfeed essentially
+Thomas Fox btec buzzfeed
+Ben Murphy This is cancer-free Buzzfeed. Buzzfeed is garbage and spews toxic nonsense all the time.
I love your videos, hooked even. But could you make them a bit longer please? :) keep up the good work!
"i'd rather starve" 😂
Did that man just call a microwave a Bing Bong??? If so, that's absolutely magical. My new name for a microwave now.
+Sarah Territt In Welsh a microwave can be called a Popty Ping. Its a great phrase.
I was thinking the same!
+ailish086 How am I supposed to choose between Bing Bong and Popty Ping??? What have you done to me???
Jumper and shirt guy should become a regular :)
Why are these videos so interesting... never thought i could spend an hour watching other people eat food
"WHERE'S THE LAMB SAUCE?!?!" -Gordon Ramsay...
I thought this was Buzzfeed but then I realised I haven't contracted ass-cancer from watching.
Gotta love a chef who doesn't understand the science of microwaves but takes a stand against them anyway. Next he'll be saying they cause cancer.
they do
+Nick Vrakas Do you even physics,bro?
+Nick Vrakas Learn your radiation bro
Of course he understands. "They denature food." It's conventional cooking that he doesn't understand...
There are foods that just shouldn't be microwaved. It has nothing to do with health. Potatoes for instance, I would never microwave. They don't have the same consistency compared to an oven cooked potato with the crispy skin and other layer.
Welcome to poor. You get used to it.
ikr! People work with what they can or have...its not like people have bad taste on purpose all the time or care...its a matter of priorities and if people are willing to sacrifice food for mediocre ones, then so be it, because they have other things to worry bout then top quality foods. Plus sometimes people are raised and like microwave food(it has its good reasons of being a thing and common).
Nice job getting offended over a completely un-offensive video.
Yeah they're chefs lol they make good tasting food for a living
Flazz who u talking to? It better not be me..cuz i wasnt offended at all...i was just talking on the subject related to his comment. :\
It's cheaper to make the non microwavable version of these meals, all microwaves do is save time, not money
I can say that after 75-80 hour weeks in a high volume steak house, I can settle for a microwave cheesburger/pizza at the end of the day. I'd rather spend the little free time I have sleeping and spending time with my son than being the stereotypical cocky chef who won't even breath air from the same room that contains a microwave.
Yay Mike the chef! Who's Mike? You know Mike, Mike the Microwave.
OMG lol I remember that
+Aleisha yea when I saw that episode I laughed.
I wish you said at first these were made by famous chefs and after reveal they were microwaved
Why tf would you tell them its microwaved?
MajesticBadger why not ??
because the purpose of the video is making chefs taste microwave food perhaps?
I doubt you would be able to hide all those except the salad being from a microwave, my only issue is that an idiot could've been the one to make them in a microwave.
just like wine tasters, if you hide the lable, they may not know what to taste
Khoi Pham exactly
the deep voice guy is my spirit animal. so funny lol
"Terrible shame that cow died for that"
oh my god, I thought this was buzzfeed!
+Kyle Gallagher Same!!
same!it's so similar!
Facts is the shitty rip-off of buzzfeed.
+Cry6ix implying that BuzzFeed isn't shit to begin with.
+Rachel than I looked at the subscriber count
Pretty awesome vid and channel just subbed
Can't wait for the subtitles to roll out for this video
"It's respectable for what it is... you buy it in a box and you stick it in the bing-bong" I'm going to call the microwave "the bing-bong" for the rest of my life after watching this video.
Should have given them something that they cooked/their chef friends cooked or a meal from the restaurant they work at see what say and see if they slate it
As a chef myself, your taste buds have my deepest sympathy.
Can't speak for the Lean Cuisine meals in other countries but their microwave "steamed" range is pretty nice in Australia. They have a "cheese and cracked pepper chicken and pasta", a "slow cooked beef pasta" and a "sundried tomato chicken and pasta" meals that I'm very happy with as microwaved instant meals.
I only eat pasta frozen dinners because they're always the best. Anything with microwaved meat is gonna be gross lol
+Tokin Taylor The nature of how a microwave works means that you can't cook pasta without overcooking it. Microwaves cook from the inside out and pasta is supposed to have a chewier inside than outside, you literally cannot do that in a microwave.
Pasta dinners are the absolute worst.
+Tokin Taylor i only microwave soups or leftovers. never use a microwave to actually cook a meal unless ive already made it. lately i only use a microwave at work because i just pack my own lunch and its usually soup or pasta
Because it's rotten flesh.
Children in Africa could have eaten those chefs.
+Naime L Thank you, for making my day :3
+Naime L Dude I was about to write the same thing. You wrote it a minute later.
+Sanju Wayne "It doesn't matter if you win by a second or a mile, winning is winning." - Dominic Toretto (Fast and Furious)
PonchikTV That was pretty legit
PonchikTV Blasphemy. Seconds and miles are different units of measurement.
Now I can see why they're chefs, their roasting skills are off the charts.
i just realized😂 this is not buzzfeed but still fun to watch😂
The one chef didn't know you could cook pasta in the microwave? As I don't have a stove I do it all the time. It's extremely simple and tastes exactly the same.
It may taste the same but the process ruins the nutrients.
+Dead men tell no tales 1914 That seems unproven, as a quick search will find. Also though, if you're eating processed food, it's not really that nutritious to begin with.
+Dead men tell no tales 1914 burn.
+Adam Porter they have microwave as seen on tv gadget for that!
In my attempts it rarely doesn't feel as good as stove cooked. But you gotta do what you gotta do
There are good microwave food brands, most are bad, but there are some good ones. Beside when you are busy and don't have any time to cook it's a good option. I know of a brand that has a really good Manicotti in sauce and Blintzes in gravy, and another that has a good meatballs with rice and another that has vegan "meat" balls in sweet sauce and a Turkey with Mash and Gravy. You just have to know what is good.
"I wouldn't serve this to an enemy." Best ever!
ferociously overcooked. best line of the bit.
Microwaves have their uses outside of gross microwavable preassembled entrées. Need to melt butter quickly? Microwave. Want to reheat leftovers from what you cooked last night? Microwave. Forgot to defrost something? Microwave. Want halfway decent popcorn? Microwave.
+Kikyo4815 Hungry and don't give a fuck? Microwave. Just eat it you picky bitches lol
+Kikyo4815 You're so wrong about popcorn.
+Kikyo4815 Boyfriend is cheating on you? Microwave. No wait..
you have a bomb about to go off in 3 seconds?Microwave.Wait a seco-
need to heat up metal? Microwa...... never mind
Wtf I thought this was buzzfeed lol
Same
Buzzfeed is shite!
It is its one of there many linked channels to buzzfeed
This is the better version of Buzzfeed. Less hipsters.
A SLICE OF HEART
"I would, in the long and lonely nights of desperation, eat this." My new motto for every junk food ever
watching this as a university student that basically survives on microwavable dishes...
+Addicted6omakeup I'm an univerity student too and I cook for myself. No excuses ;)
i never learned how to cook maybe this summer once i finish my coursework...
Addicted6omakeup It's easy, you'll see ;)
when you realize this isn't buzzfeed
omg when he said if this isnt dessert it can only be a heart i died haha thats so funny
3:08 "I would, in the desperate hours of the long and lonely nights, eat this" Golden Corral's new slogan
Blonde guy must be the Gordon Ramsay of Ireland. "F*cking zero!"
Ramsay is from Ireland....No?
+MrAstrothousand98 Yeah totally bro
+MrAstrothousand98 No. He's a born Scot who lives in Britain. And the Irish would maim you for getting the accents confused.
+Kris Jai Eh so many people in the States call Hispanics Mexican even though all our accents are completely different. I get it's annoying, but not worth maiming.
MrAstrothousand98 Nah, a lot of Irish people get seriously pissed off. Worth maiming to them.
You just cook the burger meat in the microwave and toast the bun in the toaster (this way the bun doesn't get soggy!)
+Wise Man he was giving a suggestion based off the video you idiot
I usually hate prefabricated foods, but I actually love Saritas tikka masala from Norway. It comes in two boxes, one with yellow basmati rice, and one with the chickensauce. They also sell their own frozen nan bread which is decent. Add a tablespoon with full fat creme fraiche and it tastes delicious.
Kudos to the chef that throws out the microwave in restaurants he's in. True chef.
New form of torture? Cruel and unusual punishment? Microwave cheeseburgers are just terrible. Pasta seems to be one of the few tolerable entrees.
ive never been so early love this channel💚🍀
I love his comment at 1:05 "terrible shame that cow died for that."
that stuff may look bad to professional chefs but when you're on a budget it's like heaven
Lets be honest, microwavable food is only ever good if you're drunk or on drugs.
Or a student
or a vegetarian who looooves Amy's Kitchen meals! I have been so surprised at how amazi g they are for microwave meals.
+RandomCrap amys kitchen meals are so good!!
+Nadia Mohamed The only thing I found that I didn't like was the mushroom rizotto. I eat mainly Amy's meals now and supplement with fresh fruits/veggies for snacks because I use them for portion control so I can easily count my calories without spending ages adding up every single individual ingredient i ate that day. They are all organic, non-GMO and preservative free, as well as offering many low sodium and vegan options, so it's probably the healthiest stuff on earth you could ever eat. lol $3.75 for a fully cooked, hassle free meal is well worth the money to me, as I have 3 jobs and am constantly running from one place or another. And when counting for all the crap food that I no longer buy, it actually ended up not costing me any more money in the long haul, and it has helped me lose 40 lbs as well. Amy's for the win!
+PyromaniaFreebird Yes! I try every single new thing they offer that I can find. Things I would normally never even DREAM of trying have turned out to be some of my favorites. (Like the quinoa, black bean, butternut squash, and kale bowl. It seriously looks like a pile of dog barf but it is delicious! haha)
thought ramsay would be here
i thought he looked like him too
ITS RAWWWWWWW
1:42 "I'd rather starve" 😂😂😂😂
dude with the red Polo logo is hilarious!
The bing bong! I love him
These guys are great make them test more !!
Lol I love their honesty
congratulations. you have 1 million subcribers
I like the guy who was all 'what you put into the microwave isn't that different to what you get out of the microwave', like if it's crap it doesn't matter how you cook it it's still going to be crap when it's hot.
I'm calling my microwave a bing bong from now on.
People won’t understand when you only got $2 and your hungry but don’t have anything these are the best
buzzfeed is this you?
The jumper Chef is gorgeous just saying xD
I was hoping they wouldn't know it was Microwaveable dinners. Tell them it's from a high class restaurant or made by other successful chefs and I bet their reactions would change.
materiauser Even visually it'd be impossible to convince anyone this was made by successful chefs. You don't even need to be chef to recognise processed food.
Get workers from McDonalds and they'll be like "I don't see a difference between this food and ours"
I like these three guys. You should add them to the regular rotation of "Irish try ----"
