Ever see Matty's merch? It's crazy expensive too. Literally most internet content is shifting focus onto Merch - obviously it's the best ROI. Gaming, Food, Tech, everyone has a merch shop and somehow everyone's buying USD 36$ t shirts - it's insane.

Slotducks posted:Ever see Matty's merch? It's crazy expensive too. A lot of it is print-on-demand, and the stuff that isn't is usually handled by merch companies now, instead of like, a website guy with a spare room filled with boxes of last year's XS t-shirts. So it's super easy and super low risk.

According to Molly’s IG all of the aprons sold out. So something‘s working. And Claire posting a long-rear end story tutorial thing about her pie crust. Trying to follow an IG story for a recipe seems like a total nightmare.

James May from Top Gear/The Grand Tour has a new cooking show on Amazon. He can't cook, so it is pretty endearing to watch a 50-something guy try to learn with the help of someone who knows what they're doing

I feel like avoiding making a mother sauce because of the politics of its creator might be a smidge too far for me. Whatever dead rear end in a top hat invented it isn't getting any benefit from you making it, and you're locking yourself out of a LOT of sauces if you refuse to make a béchamel. In all honesty I'm sure someone figured out to combine a roux and milk before him, he just happened to write it down in a book.

Claire is good and some of you are being hella weird about how she comes from a money-rear end family. I get that it could be bad, but she's never done that in front of a camera. That being said, Rick said he would have videos every 2 weeks and that has not happened. I love the banter between him and his... partner???

I think the disconnect comes from that BA presented these folks super casually, which masks that most of these folks came from situations that allowed them to go to ivy schools, move to Europe and work at fancy-rear end restaurants. It's like when you learn Anthony Bourdain's parents were an executive for Columbia records and an editor for the New York Times. It doesn't diminish their accomplishments or change the fact that they are good/great at what they do – but it does tinge a bit when so much of the brands are about being 'relatable'. Gourmet Makes was still grade A stuff, and Bourdain was still a great writer. Tho I can see how it could feel like a slight betrayal given the Brand.

I will *not* be making that sauce again. Do you mean Louis de Bechamel? Because the way these things usually work, it wasn't him personally who invented it; he was a politician not a professional chef. His hired dude would have come up with it. Same way Mornay sauce wasn't personally cooked up in the kitchen by the Duke of Mornay putting on some chef's whites on his day off.

Yeah it all makes sense but I still remember being a little shocked in the "best pizza" series where they go to Carla's family home in Connecticut or something and it's a huge loving mansion and of course they have a wood burning pizza oven there that probably cost like $20,000.

Goddamn goons are remarkably precious about the stupidest things. I don't even see how some youtuber's personal life is at all your business or in fact something you care about. They're making grilled cheese sandwiches and you're worried that because their Daddy is a landlord they might not be authentically...a person that makes grilled cheese for cameras. The hell is wrong with you guys?
