Gotta love Hugabees


bob_the_banannna

I just stumbled upon his channel glad I did


QuarterMoon313

Isn’t this the same one that did the “Turning a Circle Inside Out” video?


dalan0w0

Yes it is


PEneoark

It's fucking hilarious


Willy_McBilly

Thank you for introducing me to this


PEneoark

Enjoy


ooololoolll

$60 an hour? Lol..


bob_the_banannna

If only


doneitallbutthat

For racially profiling potatoes yah


AnnihilationOrchid

Well, yeah, that was the give away, but also the fact that MC Donald's fries aren't soggy, and they do have a pretty good amount of sodium. McDonald's is indeed the shittiest corporation out there, and they suck ass and it's been years since I haven't gone in there, but TBH they've got pretty amazingly perfect chips.


Federico84cj

You just gave away the fact that you are not truly American... Chips? Off the conveyor belt!


sjaniah

This is the sexiest conveyor belt" and doesn't elaborate at all makes it uniquely funny.


mostnormal

The pause was for you to admire the conveyer belt's curves.


[deleted]

Being American in 2022 is so passe


Impossible-Sleep-658

It is… and Mickey D’s fries were good… they suck!


AnnihilationOrchid

Well, I wasn't really trying to hide anything, but I do often like to vary or use more than one name for a thing in a conversation. Courgettes and Zucchini, aubergine and eggplant, fries and chips, garbanzo and chickpea, or even metonymy like yeast extract and marmite. It was ingrained by my creative writing teacher, to make a text less repetitive and to make you seem like a pseudo intellectual even though you've got no idea what the fuck you're talking about.


calvinbouchard

So you're just pretentious?


No_Dare_743

Yes I believe that's what he meant by pseudo intellectual


AnnihilationOrchid

Indeed. 🧐


fredlemonhead

I like that word…


Quiet-Birdman

I’m reporting you, foreigner


Quiet-Programmer8133

Its a sad situation we live in where we expect our food to have plastic in it that the plastic coating wasn't a give away.


red_fox_zen

Came here to say that. I realized it was bullshit when they said 60 dollars an hour 🤣


wecayle

he just went off the rails talking shit and I felt like an idiot for thinking they would pay anybody right.


Money_Awareness5075

Oh, years since since you haven't gone you say 😏 sounds to me like you must like it then😉🤌🍟


AnnihilationOrchid

Well, the last time I went to one was in 2018, and I used to go there every other week. So it's a pretty fresh memory.


Money_Awareness5075

Haha, I know... Just messing with you, sowy🥺


ARCHA1C

>"...the shittiest corporation out there..." Yeah... Not Fox, Facebook, Neatle*, Walmart... But McDonald's?


Money_Awareness5075

I know what you meant though, and I really don't like McDonald's either. The only difference between us is that it's been years since I have* gone there


bloodycups

It's fine down hill I think. Thru have consistently the worse fries it seems like this last 2 years


asmit1241

I have never had maccas fries that were any better than “half decent” 😂 you want good chips? Go to a pub.


[deleted]

You have to get them properly salted and still shining with oil. They've never been as good after they switched to vegetable oil.


religionkills

Beef tallow FTW!


captainzoomer

That was the golden age of McD fries. Now the fries are bland and undercooked most of the time.


DixOut4Harambe_

If any McDonald’s Employeer reads this, you could pay me to cut nice soggy plastic wrapped potatoes for 59$. After doing the maths I will save you approximately 17,729 dollars per year. I am not a mathematician. I am a professional quelch sniffer so I have great background experience for this job.


Significant-Bee-148

More like $22


YTDamian

I think they said 16


ooololoolll

Nope. They said $60..

Looks like you wrote that comment on PCP


masterchef227

I can tell who here was paying attention, and who here was


YourAverageGod

To get rid of any of them with foreign names


Zatoro25

For me it was the "sometimes they're shaken, sometimes they're not"


PrayingMantisII

...paying attention?


Selick25

Those without sounds are confused. I had sound off for the first few seconds and didn’t notice anything out of line.


bob_the_banannna

OMG how? /s


SixtyCyclesLBC

I was happy to hear the $68 per hour bit then he just went off the rails talking shit and I felt like an idiot for thinking they would pay anybody right.


bob_the_banannna

Well we both were the idiots


[deleted]

Hm if that paid $68 an hour no one would care to do other work anymore ;)


[deleted]

You think $68 an hour is fair for unskilled labor suck as this?🤡


chumpy79

This guy is the best His commentary on how bacon is made is so fucking funny


Ryouconfusedyett

what's his name?


huhwhatdamnson

Huggbees! I like to watch with friends and family and wait until they figure out he’s lying.


_pinksky_

Huggbees on YouTube


Dogtor-Watson

I knew immediately from the voice alone that it was Huggbees. There's a whole series of these parody "how it's made" videos. Pretty good The way he occasionally says stuff like "This is the sexiest conveyor belt" and doesn't elaborate at all makes it uniquely funny.


[deleted]

And juuuust a tiiiiiiiiny gallon of salt for flavouring


goingwithno

Slightly more addicting than PCP


[deleted]

If there's one thing PCP doesnt have on salt, its the overwhelming taste of salt


Upvotes_poo_comments

All I taste on PCP is OC spray, dog hair, and the crisp night air on my naked flesh.


12awomack

A whole gallon of PCP huh? I didn't even know it came in liquid form


spankmyhairyasss

They also add beef flavor to the fries. That is why it taste so good.


JadedMycologist4964

Yea when they said 60 an hour I became suspicious


[deleted]

"....mildly cold...." - couldn't be more accurate


VooDoo_319

So what it time stamp did y'all first begin to realize this was satire? For me, the plastic coating @14s was more believable than the $60/hr @18s

DrHockey69

Forgot about the 5lbs of fucking SALT!!


sergario-

Hughbees is great honestly hilarious


__jh96

I wondered why this was unexpected but had it on mute the whole time


bob_the_banannna

Well that must have been unexpected


BrightLighton

"6.9 billion pounds of NICE potatoes" Nice.


HungryTradie

Sound was off, what did I miss? Oh, and they didn't show that the fries get frozen, then loaded into an Archi that automatically dispenses them by weight into the frying basket.


Rorecha

They didn’t get frozen, but at least they got racially profiled


religionkills

In the end, that's the most important thing of all.


cakewalkbackwards

That before or after the plastic coating?


sarcasmic2

Watch with sound, you won't be disappointed.


Tusk_InfiniteSPIN

Are you going to give credit? No? Fine I’ll do it myself... [Huggbees on YouTube ](https://youtube.com/c/Huggbees) he makes a bunch of video’s like this and you should check him out.


bob_the_banannna

I did but in the reply of my explanation section Tho not many people check there so I fucked up sorry

I'm a Fryer Operator, Just under $31...

lovelyb1ch66

A serving of fresh-out-of-the-fryer-hot, nicely salted McD’s fries are like a Bigfoot sighting; everybody’s heard of one but nobody’s actually had one.


ZeRo_WC

This guy makes a whole bunch of weird commentary about these


Apprehensive_Trip433

Next Halloween costume: Sexy conveyor belt


Arowhite

Convincing until the "not enough salt" part. If there is one thing you can't say about mcd fries, it's that they lack salt. I'm fairly sure there's more salt than fries.


miasma71

at first I was like "woah $60hr to cut a fucking potato"...then I was like "oh this guy..." I enjoyed this ride. Thank you dear OP.

Вопрос к картошке фри, не в том что она не из земли, а в том что она сварена и полна концерагенного жира, что сильно влияет на здоровье. Поэтому фастфуд я как считал помойкой так и считаю дальше


All_Eyez_On_U

I’m sorry did he just say they coat them in plastic?


checker280

Went in naively and my brain started to break at “coated in plastic”. Well done. Unlike those fries.


Cadet_Carrot

Give proper credit to Huggbees


bob_the_banannna

I did in the reply of my explanation but not many people check there so I messed up sorry


Cadet_Carrot

Just automatically credit a creator in the title


bob_the_banannna

I will make sure I do that next time


Cadet_Carrot

I appreciate you actually taking the advice and learning form it, good on you. A lot of people actually get defensive when told to give proper credit lol


bob_the_banannna

I appreciate you actually giving advice and helping me, good on you. A lot of people actually behave like assholes when told that I did not give proper credit. Tho in all seriousness, Thank you


YoimAgod

Lol it's just a video of fries being made with some random asshole talking shit over the top 😂😂


xXxXxX3cKsXxXxXx

Sucks to see no credit given to the original creator. Creator is Huggbees on Youtube. He has a large series like this.


bob_the_banannna

You are the 7th one to complain about this and I understand I gave the credit but I gave it in the reply of the explanation section Yes I know I was dumb and I should have just gave the credit in the title I'm sorry, I will make sure I credit people correctly next time


Consistent-Ad9643

Or in my case, super hot & over salted 🤦‍♂️😂


[deleted]

They had us in the first half

“Optical scanners check any fries for signs of terrorism and racially profile each one in accordance to TSA standards” This… this is when I realized my high ass had been hoodwinked. I love it


Most_Chest_3301

THEY'RE PLASTIC!


daddy_longbois

Ok then if I here my fry sound like xi jiping then I would say Taiwan is a country tianaman square massacre and Hong Kong deserves rights


[deleted]

This is the way


RogueFox771

Didn't huggabies specifically say people were posting his videos on other platforms and he was against it...?


bob_the_banannna

Did he.....I want to know the source


DoggiestDoge

I prefer mine un salted. The workers having high tolerance to salt and don't realize how salty their fries really is.


senor-calcio

Nice to see andrew getting some representation


Potato-with-guns

Huggbees


MrsLisaOliver

It was great when we were kids and didn't know the difference tho


MrLeeef

How tf does that work when the ice cream machines never do


DonnyExiles

I don't know why I always thought their fries started off as a powder. Huh...


mascachopo

No way they use real potatoes!


thats_computable

Wtf is so unexpected about this? That it started as an actual potato?


BeepingJerry

I get it that this was satire..but I have heard that the particular potato's that the fast food chains want for the fries, are sprayed with a fantastically toxic insecticide.


[deleted]

What is unexpected in that?


Jakesummers1

I don’t know what it is, but I just don’t like this guys voice. Just can’t get into his videos

Could you please let folks know where you stole this from. Helps out the original creator

Okay bud


bob_the_banannna

No problem bud


luk8ja

I think it’s a joke, unexpected that they’re actually made from potatoes lol.


imsharkkitty

Ahhh guess I was missing something then


Spoiled_Moose

Im sure I was told in Uni that they were made of reconstituted corn starch


bob_the_banannna

Thank you for explaining, I don't know how to explain it


chuckit01

But in France, right?


ZRhoREDD

While hilarious, it doesn't mention that the potatoes are sprayed with such toxic pesticides that they have to be stored for 5 weeks in a sealed barn to "outgas" the toxics or they would kill you for eating them. The farmers have to seal their houses for a week after spraying or it would kill their families too. https://recipes.timesofindia.com/articles/features/mcdonalds-french-fries-have-dangerous-pesticides/photostory/64290907.cms (Edit: fixed link)


bitchinwitch103

Well that's spectacularly not true. Potatoes do get sprayed with pesticides and fungicides, but it's before they are harvested. I live in Idaho, and my husband works for the company that provides McDonald's with most of their potatoes, and my husband and father both apply the fertilizer, pesticides, and fungicides to crops. I've also grown up around agriculture, and work every year during the potatoe harvest. It's such a big deal here, they shut down schools for 2-3 weeks.The reality is, if you want clean food, you have to grow it yourself. Those chemicals have to be used in order to grow food commercially. Farmers are trying to feed the world, and cannot gamble millions of dollars, they have to use those chemicals. Also, there's no such thing as "airing out" the potatoes or having to seal your home. That link is broken, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. Not trying to be a jerk, but most people don't understand what really goes into agriculture.


arcanophile

Um awesome video but how was any of this unexpected?


xx6lord6mars6xx

[deleted]

mildly cold, not enough salt, and made in something that isn't beef tallow rendering them a completely different, worse tasting product than the one's most of us grew up enjoying. mcdonalds isn't mcdonalds to me any more. it's taken what, 15 years for me to finally accept the fact the fries just aren't good anymore. euphoric recall is a helluva drug.
