explore your creativity hey greens welcome to another debunking 5-minute craft hacks for those of you who don't know 5-minute crafts they make the most click-baity thumbnails that are like i wonder if this is real and then by the end of the video you're like wow nothing in that video was related to the thumbnail and so my job is to watch these videos and find out what are they click baiting and do they actually do it and does it actually work in the previous video we tested out whether we can use eggs and resin together if you're curious about that i will leave the link down below it was quite the emotional rhyme [Music] however this week i wanted to test out some food hacks by five minute crafts more specifically the video we're going to be looking at is called cool food hacks and funny tricks 27 foods you can waffle iron i have a waffle iron and a burning burning burning curiosity to know what else can i put as a ridiculous item in there have i put dumb things in there absolutely do i want to know more dumb things heck yeah and immediately what caught my attention is the thumbnail we can see that they're putting skittles in the waffle iron and the end result is a really adorable multi-colored lollipop so that is going to be our piece de resistance among many other experiments we're going to be making let me know in the comment section below have you ever tried any five minute craft hacks and if you have how did it go and which one is it but also for those of you new to this channel don't forget to subscribe i post twice a week and when you do subscribe you become part of the salt shaker family in which each of us is a grain of salt click on all notifications while you're there all right so let's start watching to get an idea why are you using a lighter i wow that was quite okay there were just way too many things going on at the same time i didn't even have a chance to comment on the first part let's just go back real quick generally speaking similarly to trim trim five minute crafts loves to have these stories going on before they you know give you the hack and our main character is starting by wanting to light a fire on her marshmallow with a lighter generally speaking i think it's okay to do that if you have a stove top with flames but i'm not quite sure this is the smart thing to do alright now she gets frustrated throws it into the waffle skillet closes it up and we get an absolute mess what the heck is this it doesn't look appealing it doesn't even look like it looks like a nightmare to clean up so at least this is pretty much setting the tone for what we're about to see oh i am so excited now this video is gonna be delicious in many ways you know what let's give our characters names so i think the main character is the same girl that we saw at the beginning of the video so let's call her alex in this next scene alex is bringing pizza and all her friends are jerks okay and i can see that brad has two pieces chad also has two pieces and amanda has two pieces let's not even talk about what pink hair girl is doing she looks like she is having just a little too much fun with the pizza so at this point everyone has two pieces whoa brad why do you look surprised well okay why am i pausing at these moments pink hair girl is obviously having a moment brad looks so surprised and anthony just looks guilty everyone else is doing it why can't i and brad look at his eyes he just went note to self alex do not invite these people over again so i'm guessing alex is going to be making pizza that is interesting okay so we're going to be using dough by putting it in there making a waffle adding tomato paste mozzarella cheese and tomatoes really the only thing we're doing at this point is just cooking the dough as a waffle and all the toppings on top are just absolutely raw they're not really closing it this is slightly disappointing but you know what i am curious so we're going to be trying this let's see what alex thinks okay i was sitting down eating it what the heck no no brad no get your own darn gosh darn gnabbit pizza you had two slices look at his little beady eyes get get your hand out of the way that's it alex you tell him you push that hand out of your way all right let's make a pizza so here is my lovely waffle maker it is just a normal waffle maker nothing special about it not sponsored not affiliated by this company i'm gonna put it to a medium heat because we don't want things to burn either so our first one is pizza dough now i technically could have made my own pizza dough you know and there's the whole adventure of it but i'm sure your grains are probably better than i am when it comes to making pizza and when it comes to baking i'm not exactly good at following instructions so we're gonna go with pre-made dough that way none of you can say jake you're doing it wrong it's supposed to be this way or that way stop we're gonna do it this way store-bought end of story when we look at the video it is obvious that they're not using any kind of oil no butter nothing they're just laying that pizza dough straight onto the waffle maker so we're gonna take a take a piece too small don't ask what that sound effect is it just it just is yeah okay i could use a rolling pin but i think this way works just this way i make pizza i love pizza let me know what are your favorite toppings many of you actually said pineapple last time all right so we don't want it too thin again we don't want it to burn so i think this thickness should be just about right by the way for those of you who do make pizza and are familiar with dough how long does it take for dough to go bad i bought flour this summer and uh let's just say i had some nasty surprises in there i didn't think it would go bad this quickly all right here we go and it goes and let's just wait for this light over here to turn green that's a lot of sizzle listen so our light turned green and this is extremely poofy let's take a quick peek and see if it's cooked that does not look cool it was really thin too holy carp let's wait a little longer i'm raising the level to four hopefully we'll get a more cooked type dough all right green again check oh no that does not i don't know i really doubt the inside is gonna be cooked but there's only one way to try let's put it one more level level five and wait for it to cook so at level five this is what it looks like now when we look at their video the actual pizza dough did not rise one bit that is not typical of pizza dough because it does have to go up and there is a little bit of shrinking going on so this would be the typical look but let's find out if the dough on the inside is actually cooked so we won't move oh oh that is that's like cardboard i'm also pretty convinced that the batter they used is most likely than not pancake batter so this is extremely stiff the inside does look cooked and yes it's definitely cooked on the inside however the biggest downside of this hack is that you can only have raw toppings you can't even have your tomato sauce warm you can't melt any cheese you can't put onions unless you want them raw or cook them on the side i think if you maybe put this and then sandwiched it with cheese it would actually be pretty good but as a pizza that's really dry i would say that this hat goes in the trash let's see what we're up to next and alex is having popcorn with bread brad brad is going to escalate bread what the heck was that let's see that grabby hand thing again holy carp he went in with both hands if i had a friend like that correction i wouldn't have a friend like that talk about inconsiderate in every situation bread again with the medias i feel like if this were a movie brad would definitely be the villain at least people didn't notice he was the villain until the end like it was me the whole time it's like oh no do tell i guess it was you totally the whole time wow i guess i'm pretty biased against so the premise of the story is bread is eating all the popcorn alex has absolutely nothing left and he's just so uninvolved in everything it's almost like brad lives on a completely different planet so we're back to the no is this actually gonna work can we actually make popcorn in a waffle maker this is interesting this has got to be tested they don't close it holy cow that's a lot of popcorn and he's still going with two hens i don't like selfish people this is the epitome of selfishness it's just still going in with two hands alex you're just way too nice don't let them grabby hands grab your hard work i don't like you brad not one bit eating with two hands there was no oil nothing used whatsoever so let's give this one a try as well all right so we don't get a sense on the amount of heat that we need all we know oh that is hot neither is there any kind of butter so all we're gonna do is just place some of these kernels and hope that it actually pops i am scared i am really scared there was no butter nothing let's see what let's see what happens i'm not quite sure what scenario we would use this instead of an actual skillet with butter but let's see don't pop in my face so it's been about 45 seconds this is the waiting dance you know what let's wait three minutes maybe if i move them around hey yo just to be sure yeah they definitely did not close the cover so it's been two minutes this one kind of burnt i don't know if you greens can see it right here but let's keep going oh wow did you guys see that so one of them popped it flew right into my chest let's keep a closer eye so it has been three minutes this is probably the most inefficient way to pop popcorn oh but it does work holy cow so it's been now four minutes let's do one more minute and see if anything else pops oh how does it taste come here you oh that's hot i'm gonna wait oh oh i am genuinely surprised every time it pops that was a little one it does work but very inefficiently if i may add just for efficiency's sake this hack is also in the trash alex wakes up late and okay so now i'm guessing we're going to end up making breakfast but we only have bacon and one egg i mean this is not uncommon i've actually put bacon and i put eggs in the waffle maker and it does work really well you can even do that in an english toaster muffin top why can't i talk this is not uncommon you can definitely make eggs and bacon and toast in a waffle maker and they do turn out pretty good now we have an absolutely ruined and smushed cake are we throwing it into the waffle maker now are we are we no okay what biscuit dough biscuit dough is there such a thing as biscuit though cause all i know is cookie dough but this is very look at this this is extremely liquidy in comparison to cookie dough so it feels like this is more colored pancake batter and yeah it just kind of looks like pancake batter i know this is supposed to be a last minute cake but it kind of does look really cute whose birthday is it it's brad's birthday it's that son of a biscuit's birthday that's why we use biscuit dough for the son of a biscuit this cake is too good now it's too good for bread i don't want him to no watch him go in with both hands brad with your beady eyes and your grabby hands i have goosebumps i'm gross why did i gross myself out now and now we have a donut scenario where they're just kind of left outside and okay alex is having a hard time get it a hard time because the donut it's too hard shouldn't it have crumbled though it does look yummy but we're not going to try that we don't want to reheat things i want to know what are the things that are ridiculous speaking of ridiculous i want to know what's ridiculous or absolutely absurd that we're going to be putting in the waffle maker cue this next scene we can see that alex is trying to eat i'm guessing ramen or noodles but they look like dry noodles and she's dropping them in the waffle maker i want to try this no there is no way by the way five minute craft is very much so known for like speedy content but let's just go back two seconds there's no way noodles are just going to turn into this right i mean it must have been mixed with eggs at some point because otherwise just dry noodles so my guess is that it's ramen drained and then put in there so this is what it looks like but again no eggs nothing else it's almost like the noodles merged with each other and became super mushy and became a waffle noodle very malleable and it looks edible i definitely like to eat my noodles like a sandwich who needs a sandwich if you can have a noodle waffle i want to try this i do have ramen so let's get doing i have a dry noodle kit from japan so it kind of has that similar look to the one that alex is using so i'm gonna just go and make it now let's taste it before we shove it into the waffle maker pretty decent all right so let's go ahead and put a nice amount oh that is sizzle it wasn't even put that flat it was just kind of spread like so what am i even doing you know what let's just trust the process i will put it at medium and off you go alright so our light is green what the heck that does not look anything like the actual waffle noodle that she made i mean let's look at it again i am convinced that they either put it in a blender with eggs or something because this look how hard it's become so i mean it's obviously burnt in some sections but it hasn't turned mushy or flowery doughy like like in the picture so you said nothing all right let's bring you on the plate and i'm going to have to say that this food hack definitely goes in the trash but my parents taught me not to throw food so i'm going to try it anyways you know what it's actually pretty yummy i really like it but it doesn't look like the way that they had it to eat it like a waffle you can hold it the heck is trash the flavor is actually really good i do recommend you try it i love that alex is a huge member of society has hobbies has a social life goes to work but they're having cheetos and that cheetos is going just like that cheetos straight into the waffle maker there's nothing else that's it jalapeno but again the moisture from that shouldn't really make a difference we have cheese interesting no come on will it actually adhere will it will it make them i am not putting mustard and again we're eating it like a waffle i thought it would turn into a kind of nacho thing but it really is just bite-sized everything all right let's make us some cheetos hello flavor i haven't had cheetos in a long time is it me or is it dull hello flavor this tastes salty which i can do perfectly fine on myself now i still have my doubts that it's going to turn out exactly the way that it ended up for alex because it really is waffle form and it's super melty and because i don't like waste i'm not gonna put too much just enough to see whether it's actually going to melt there we go and of course let's not forget some cheese oh sizzle and off you go oh that was crunchy i did not like the sound of that do i squeeze it down let's look at the video real quick the cheetos themselves don't look squished they just look like they're the actual pieces but again i'm going to say that they probably mixed the cheetos in maybe with some egg or batter or something like that because i have my doubts oh it's already green let's see what that looks like oh gross it even burnt and this is exactly what i thought it would look like i didn't think it would be pancakey or waffly either yeah this one goes straight in the trash i'm not even gonna try it because it doesn't look appealing at all look at that it's burnt and when we look at the video not a single bit of it is burnt my guess is because the actual plate is removable from the waffle is that they keep exchanging it for another project so that's gonna be my guess i'm just gonna get rid of this look at that it's just burnt and gross in this scenario we go straight to a waffle maker and we're putting eggs again i said i've already done this nothing weird now it's an egg with holes interesting and is it me or does that egg look extremely stiff like if you bite into it you know you might lose a filling or even crack your teeth that is really sick let's look at it again okay no it's not as stiff as i thought it would be look it's it goes flat okay ketchup i love ketchup don't get me wrong ketchup is my favorite condiment but i just don't know if i want that much ketchup like six dollops of ketchup per bite i feel like sika would probably be okay with putting mayo in every single little square i mean it could be delicious don't get me wrong it does look pretty though brad brad is an uber driver i'm not sure i trust brad let's get on with the story so brad is delivering something to alex and my guess is that it's going to be probably fully eaten or something's going to be messed up of course a broken burger we shouldn't have any expectations for bread at this point okay so we're putting the onions so we're basically making an entirely new burger i would give him a zero star if it's possible and i would write as a comment brad sucks did not bring my burger in one piece probably licked it also on the way would not recommend i would tip him zero nothing for bread bread's jerk again i'm not interested in these kinds of hacks are you going to eat it though alex yes okay but alex are you eating okay let's take a look at how alex is eating so here's the first bite and there's nothing in that bite let's see the mouth open probably like one grain there you go one grain of bread but that's it i don't see any piece of meat or at least if you ate a piece of meat there would be more chewing going on and then with that bite alex just pulled out a pepper is that burger that gross just another pepper again and they're like no i don't want it but we're not gonna cook meat in there because i've already made weird things these are just i just want the weirder things speaking of weirder things here's a scenario where we have brad and alex again what did you not learn this guy is selfish this guy doesn't want anything to do with friendships so what are you doing now don't tell me they're in a relationship obviously he's ignoring her that's smug face and that shirt that looks like a cheese melted cheese right i'm just being mean at this point what are we gonna do what's the solution to getting his attention are we making him a sandwich with a heart no he doesn't deserve it eggs in the other one with shrimp okay and veggies and no seasoning like no salt no onion powder nothing you know what this would be my type of revenge make food that has no seasoning so that the other person can just leave oh and now he wants attention look at his face oh wow right see like he says oh wow look at that oh wow that got your attention food got your attention but the fact that alex wanted to hang out with you you son of a biscuit i don't like him why did i make this sky my enemy today's video is brought to you by bashing brad when you don't know who to bash you bring over a breath sometimes this bread can be selfish a glutton clumsy and just downright a jerk what do we do to brags we get them off screen bye-bye brad what's really interesting about this video is you're going to see now we stop getting people trying these things we have a lemon and okay hang up i just saw the lemon but then i realized what the lemon's going on we have a slice of watermelon in a waffle maker in what universe is that waffle maker going to clo i mean it just this so i have no idea how this is going to end up closing but what did they put lemon juice italian herbs and then they closed it and then they reopened it what okay i would love nothing more than to try this but watermelon is not in season right now so it's nowhere to be found unless you really want some gross ones so in that case i wouldn't know if it's the recipe that's gross or the actual watermelon itself but for those of you who do season your watermelon let me know what it's like because as you can see they take it out and we go to the next scene nobody's eating this i'm so frustrated you got me doing this look you got me doing this what you got for us a hot dog and a paper clip do we not have knives anymore is it really it huh i think the paper clip was just there to flex on us like look i can cut a hot dog with a paper clip i don't know if i have paper clips but i'm very tempted to try it you know that means weiner time there we go now forgive me mariah elizabeth because the only paper clip i could find is this one let's just get on to it and let's not dwell on on what i'm gonna do okay so they started at one end and just moved across okay so they basically started here all the way wow okay interesting you can skin a hot dog with a paper clip i don't see why you would want to but yeah sure you you could do it it's so weird oddly satisfying i am i don't like this but it is all these sides yeah you could you can do it i'm gonna throw this to the raccoons i really think that's something we could have just done normally but i'm gonna stop this part here because i think they're just gonna probably end up making an omelette let's fast forward three okay so nobody we don't need more information on that but that flex though why did they need to use a paper the rest of this video we're gonna be doing this huh what did you do did you smash that like button because if you didn't this is gonna keep happening all right now we're gonna go with oil i think this is one of the first times they put oil mashed potatoes oh that sounds delicious that looks really creamy and i love the fact that they have herbs in there it looks very buttery we're going to try this because i love mashed potatoes i'm curious and cheese and bacon and more mashed potatoes so it's kind of like a mashed potato sandwich what does it look like that looks pretty good the outside is crispy and the inside is mushy that would be like i'm salivating i really want that we're gonna try that one is anyone gonna eat it no all right so let's make us some mashed potato waffles and i made a delicious mashed potatoes with chives butter cream and i have no idea if theirs has eggs but let's just do it and here we go with our little oil a layer of potato cheese and another layer for you know what i'm just gonna go in manually off we go while this is cooking the actual finished product does look really yellow so i'm going to go out on a limb and say that they definitely used egg because let's see ours okay yeah it definitely needs eggs because oh no still mushy can this come out come on gentle gentle it's been in there for five minutes gentle gentle not happy about this here's what it looks like i think that's their biggest issue is they don't give any instructions whatsoever if they gave us a little bit of guidance maybe some of the things that they do actually would work i mean i'm sure it's going to taste fine because i liked it even before so it's the same thing i made well if you want to try this definitely put an egg because their instructions are absolute poop so despite the fact that it didn't work for me knowingly if i had put an egg it would have worked so i'm going to say that this hack is not trash so it's not debunked because they just don't give us instructions and the yellowness of it tells me it's eggy so i'm just gonna call it disappointing at best the next thing that we have now also uses oil so this is exciting corn dough okay i know what corn dough is i have that hot dogs are we making pogos those of you don't know this is what a pogo is okay it seems like we are pogo waffles i have all of this material i don't know if i have a stick though we need to try this because if this works that would be the no puff pastry right now hang on because if this genuinely works that would be one of the easiest ways to actually make a homemade pogo here we have our super mega thick batter and i don't have these long sticks so i poke toothpicks right at the end of half hot dogs just so that they can be a little more slim and for those of you who want to say but jakey is way too thick that's why it didn't close stop we've prepared okay okay and did they put oil yes let's slather that thing here goes my oil and this time i'm gonna put it a little bit of everywhere so we don't get any kind of stickiness i might not even make a hole too let's just make focus on one put you here nice and thick look at you holy carp our little hot oak and another smothered this feels wrong i feel like this is going to just get much thicker can we just do this i feel like this is just going to be way too much dough let's just see where this goes we're on this adventure together and closing time let's wait and see all right so it looks just about done and yeah it looks looks waffly we don't want it to be too hard so let's see if the hot dog on the inside actually did cook a little bit because the tricky part is going to get the outside cooked and not too leathery and the inside not raw the hot dog is actually really hot all right let's take a bite i know it's way too thick but the dough is definitely cooked and the hot dog is also pretty cooked that is really hot bottoms up i would technically cook the hot dog more so maybe a lower setting would work i would say that this hack is definitely a good one just don't do as much dough as i did but yeah i would eat this especially with ketchup it works now we're on to the last element of this video which is the fiesta resistance the we don't have a story line for this they go straight into dropping skittles as you can see here into the waffle maker that's the only thing we know cute they're putting popsicle sticks and now it looks like a hardened piece of cheese it doesn't look anything like the thumbnail let's look at the thumbnail again yeah that's cute looks like an actual lollipop this just looks like cheese don't get me wrong i love cheese cheese definitely looks smexy but that's not the expectation they put out there all right so let's see it being eaten oh wait that is a sandwich what happened to my skittles lollipop and nobody want to try alex no okay you know what it's up to us now let's make us some skittle lollipops and a waffle make for the skittles i'm going to do the exact same thing but this time i'm curious is it actually going to ruin my waffle maker is it going to stick everywhere because they really don't put any oil whatsoever again the skittles are directly on the griddle i think it's called a griddle and let's have fun with the colors let's do multi-color so we're just going to focus on this little triangle in the same way that they did their piece we're just going to kind of that is very surface level don't know how i feel about this they covered every bit so we're just gonna go we're gonna go with that i am so nervous we're obviously going to be missing colors so i'll just put an assortment of colors at the bottom is that even a waffle maker yeah but there's our like little pyramids look at that mine are squares oh boy it's sizzling already cover every inch and then down here we're just going to put an assortment of random colors oh my god that is sizzling that is sizzling now we're going to put our little stick and we're going to close it that's how they did it they didn't put an extra layer when they put the popsicle stick they just close it as it is on top all right cover down and we wait i don't know why i do the things i do for science from what i can tell is that after it's done melting again this is my speculation because it looks hardens we're going to leave it aside let it get cold and then remove the top so i think now is the time to unplug now let's wait oh that's a lot of smoke not my camera not my carrot let's just take a quick peek in there oh my god oh wow they sit on the throne of life i'm just curious let's see oh my god oh no what the heck oh no i really hope it didn't ruin my waffle maker no so i'm going to say that this hack is absolutely debunked absolute garbage false lies breaking heart type of debunking i knew it would melt i didn't think it would start spreading everywhere again i'm thinking they're using colored dough and maybe sprinkling a couple of skittles there five minute crafts you're full of salt let me know which one of these food waffle making hacks was your favorite and if there's any of them that you're going to try my favorite is
