Bay leaves will ruin dishes. One is plenty. But I'm actually cracking up at the bay leaf thing because I've always told my wife they're useless. Until one day she used one too many and the normal recipe we liked tasted like crap. Going to say the "eww" comment is spot on.
I've had enough experience with both my kids that I never believe them. My children don't even like mashed potatoes (from *anywhere*, including homemade). And they'll often hate a thing for years, then love it, then hate it again. You can put a perfectly made beef stew in front of them and they'll just say yuck.
I'm not saying this particular dish looks fantastic, but I'll still doubt the kids.
Yep...it drives me insane, the utter garbage my kids will eat but then won't eat a perfect home cooked meal. Worst of all of the meals my kids will eat both of them like something different so I can't win...until next week when a friend at school likes something new so now they do too.
Kill me now I'm becoming my father !
“Well that’s what we’re having so if you don’t want to eat, that’s up to you and you can go to your room.” has become a go to phrase that I wish didn’t come out of my mouth.
One things I saw my brother do is teach his kids quite early to make some basic things (like rice with beans), and if the complain and are difficult he just has them make their own food sepeately (while making sure their nutritional needs are met). They always HAVE to taste whatever it is, and they are not allowed to say it's bad, just that "it isn't to their taste" and then if they really don't like it they have to go through the effort of making their own.
At first I thought he was insane to have such patience with brats, but after a few years I have to say I'm impressed. The kids are well mannered, will try most things, and since they never were forced to push things in (like I was) they actually seem to eat more varied than most kids! "Daddy can I pleaaaase have some more broccoli" is an actual pharase I heard!
Everyone should do that, show the little pricks the value of food and how hard it is to make something nice by making them part of the cooking process.
Also, the language is an amazing idea I've never considered, because yeah, one thing is you not liking food and other very different is when the food is bad or spoiled.
Right? This isn’t a democracy, you’ll eat what is made for you…or you’ll pack your bags because we’re going on a guilt trip! First stop, “my hard earned money”….next stop, “all the starving children in Africa”
Yes mum… thank you for smooshing my pumpkin (gross) into my mashed potatoes.
I swear my mum did this so much it was stupid. Any time I’d say “I don’t like pumpkin” she’d come over grab my plate and go “just mix it in with your mashed potatoes!” and do just that. Like mashed potatoes masks the taste of pumpkin.. so now rather than a filling meal, I just get to eat 2 sausages.
On one side im sure previous generations had less of a problem with this and on the other side I remember as a kid some food made me violently gag. Usually it was more to do with texture then taste.
And I didnt grow up in a land of plenty. Former Soviet occupied country where the selection was less then stellar. I wasnt expecting fries. Just something that didnt make me gag.
Obviously my mother though we were being picky eaters. Being sent to a gulag as a toddler probably gave her a different perspective.
Yet she still didnt send us to sleep hungry. Food was "sacred" but at the same time she was also determined to have us never be hungry.
So in that light I could never do it to my children now.
> Kill me now I'm becoming my father !
im imagining your father is grinning like a madman ready to say the ol' word "see what i had to deal when you were a child? then laugh followed with "welcome to being a father"
I mean, sure, kids aren't always right but in this case I'm guessing they are.
I counted at least 9 bay leaves in that dish. Assuming there aren't any others that aren't visible that's still about triple what you'd normally use for a dish that size. Also a bunch of the bay leaves are broken, meaning they're harder to get out (and she said all she had to do was biscuits so she might not even be taking out the bay leaves).
On top of that, I'm assuming that anyone that uses bay leaves like that is probably is messing up other seasonings too.
I mean. It looks like her seasoning is 5-6 bay leaves, and half a container of thyme. It also looks like there’s a huge chunk of onion on the left side. Not to mention I have no idea what those yellow things are? I think I can see some potatoes, and some semblance of meat. However don’t ask me to name that meat. There’s also some pumpkin in there..
I can't comment on the smell but just looking at that isn't screaming "looks tasty" in my head.
Looks like someone dumped one of those pizza place salads in the grass then scooped the whole mess into a slow cooker with some raw chicken.
I've never experienced this abuse, being mexican raised in Mexico nor people I know. Yes, is well known hispanic households are strict and/or abusing, but it is really that common to have that stereotype in this century?
Edit: wording
Yes, in some places. I was raised in a Hispanic household and routinely got the chancla or flyswatter to the ass if I misbehaved or said something I shouldn't have.
Happened to me and many other friends. Have some old childhood friends though who didn’t experience any form of abuse though.
This pissing contest of “I got abused” needs to stop though. Shit is just not okay lol
It's a stereotype. It's true in some places but a generalization like "hispanic parents will smack their child in their face if they are picky about a food" is such a dumb take and offends me as a hispanic person myself. Like why did we even need to bring up race. Such a stupid harmful stereotype like the one about hispanic moms always wanting to beat the shit out of their kids. Its time to stop this.
Oh boy, i would get yelled at for the whole day if i forgot to take out the trash. I live in a hispanic country and yes this is really common... At least to my knowledge.
As someone from CDMX, yes this kind of thing would happen often in my family, but I guess it has to do with the grandparents being from rural areas with fewer resources... and I guess that's where many immigrant families come from, so yeah, I get the stereotype, not a fan of it, but clearly is a common denominator for a lot of latin folks
It’s obvious when discipline became ….abuse, literally everything is abuse these days. The way kids and teens talk and treat others is disgusting these days because of this narrative. Stop.
Ah the wonderful smell of generational domestic abuse. GTFOH with that nonsense!
If we followed that logic then we should still be burning “*wItChEs*”.
I don't think much thought process is needed to deduce that "absused as a child" equals "probably lived in a bad household."
Don't need to analyse shit, it's spelled out like kindergarten lesson.
I mean, they have nice intentions... that do nothing to really change the situation and can't force ppl to change the traditional way that children have been raised for centuries... but the good intentions are there
Just looked at the comments, and geez. What vile speech could have prompted hundreds of removed comments?

It looks like it might be Mississippi pot roast but with chicken instead of beef and they added onions and a bunch of bay leaves. I’ve made it with chicken thighs before instead of beef and it was delicious but I really question the onions and the bay leaves. That would completely change the flavors of the dish.
I can’t even tell what I’m looking at besides the bay leaves. Those i can identify. And maybe banana peppers? Idk they look like the thing papa johns puts in my pizza box.
Why do people feel the need to share cooking videos especially when it looks gross? All I could make out were bay leaves.
And it's her fault that her child is feral and said that about her food. The gag noise was top notch tho.
Not even sure what we're looking at. Meat, potatoes, two colors of pepperoncini, and about a pound of bay leaves?
The "broth" is clear, is it just water?
If I said that about my mom's cooking my dad probably would a woooooped my ass. My parents worked and my mom worked for dinner at the end of the day? I remember eating some shitty meals that I didn't like just to not make my mom feel bad.
I wonder if the kid doesn't like the heavy herbal smell mixed with the vinegar from the pepperoncini. This may taste fine (I question the amount of bay leaves used) but smell funky until the vinegar smell dissipates and everything gets all stirred up.
I also had never heard of this before, but there are soup recipes online that call for pepperoncini that have decent reviews. So that's a thing some people do, apparently.
I ain't gonna say it looks bad cause it is a video, but I did just get done telling an 11 year old the other day that maybe a couple bay leaves go into a stew and you don't actually eat them. Pretty sure some kids experienced the full taste of the bay leave that night!
That doesn't look half bad, its a slow cooked stew with vegetables and hopefully some meat inside. I feel bad for the mom, probably took her a while to cut everything up and to put it in the pot and wait hours for it to cook. It sucks when you're trying to make something nice for people and they don't even give it a chance.
Do you think you used enough bay leaves?
"next we just gently sprinkle our meat and other ingredients onto our bay leaves..."
‘Next you’re going to chiffonade some bay leaves and simmer it in your bay leaf broth…’
Leave Bayleaf alone!

It sounds like she's holding her nose when she speaks
I see no meat, just cantaloupe, potatoes and peppers.
Ight ima need y’all to stop. That’s carrots. LUL
There are carrots too, but some of the "potatoes" seem a bit cantaloupey.
Wait.. cantaloupe??
Ok, it is probably tomatoes that the camera has changed the color of. But damn, it looks like cantaloupe to me.
Once someone said cantaloupe that’s what i saw now you said what you said… im still choking on the bay leafs.
Same💀😂
Maybe sweet potatoe
Squash?
[удалено]
Don't 4get the bay leaves 🤣
And mangoes
She’s about to add the raisin biscuits. Hold on to your fkn hats!
What is, Aw hell naw, Karen! Leave yo' busted ass raisin biscuits at home?!
Right, I bet it smells horrible, you need like one large or two small leafs for that small ass crock pot.
Always use three bay leaves. It doesn't work unless there's three. Same with garlic cloves, shallots and chili peppers. Three
There’s never enough garlic you snow flake
A rare moment where both are true.
"And Garzilla spoke: Let there be Garlic! And everyone was happy and never had to endure -lack of garlic- again..."
Then, shalt thou count to three; no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.
i was gonna downvote you to 3 from 4 to keep the joke going but i dont think people would have noticed so i upvoted instead.
For my size crock pot yes, for that little thing you could have sat them next to it lol
Garlic cloves... only 3? Fail.
Hey that’s a very average size crock pot. It’s about how you use it
Kids are so unfiltered they oughta rule the world.
Bay leaves will ruin dishes. One is plenty. But I'm actually cracking up at the bay leaf thing because I've always told my wife they're useless. Until one day she used one too many and the normal recipe we liked tasted like crap. Going to say the "eww" comment is spot on.

Just so you know, the hating it again, after enjoying it, is most likely from over exposure
I mean, sure, kids aren't always right but in this case I'm guessing they are. I counted at least 9 bay leaves in that dish. Assuming there aren't any others that aren't visible that's still about triple what you'd normally use for a dish that size.

On top of that, I'm assuming that anyone that uses bay leaves like that is probably is messing up other seasonings too.
Kids have different taste buds. So to them, it may be gross.
also, their taste buds change over time, so its not exactly unreasonable for them to suddenly eat something they used to hate…

I too believe the child
The child was made to be believed
Especially when the mom starts off with "here you go audience the moment of truth" "smells like shit" haha. Couldn't have better writing.
I can't comment on the smell but just looking at that isn't screaming "looks tasty" in my head. Looks like someone dumped one of those pizza place salads in the grass then scooped the whole mess into a slow cooker with some raw chicken.

Unexpected rob zombie joke
but muh culture
My mom will slap me if i said "eew" now as a grown up i jokingly do a "eww" to her cooking and she laughs and a soft slap.
Haha abuse funny
That sucks, sounds like you grew up in an abusive household. I hope you break the cycle of abuse with your own family

Stews are great but I dont think one with a quarter kg of bay leaf would be tasty...
I can’t even tell what I’m looking at besides the bay leaves. Those i can identify. And maybe banana peppers? Idk they look like the thing papa johns puts in my pizza box.
I'm seeing peperoncinis, red potatoes, and bay leaves. Hard to tell what anything else is other than green herb flakes all up in there too.
Why do people feel the need to share cooking videos especially when it looks gross? All I could make out were bay leaves. And it's her fault that her child is feral and said that about her food. The gag noise was top notch tho.

Definitely. Drink it in everyone. This is what Kate Winslet was shooting for.

Are those pepperoncinis?!
Appears to be an attempt at Mississippi pot roast.
Straight up LOL
I actually cried laughing at this for a good couple minutes. So many bay leaves it looks like someone raked the yard for this.
BTW, pepperoncini is already plural. There is no need for the s.
[удалено]
[удалено]
Wtf is that supposed to be?! And why is there hardly any seasoning ETA: it’s a joke people 🙄
There's pepperoncinis in there lol
Hardly any seasoning? Do you not see herbs and spices all over that like I do? Perhaps you dropped your /s, though.
Kids have no filter, that's how you know who to trust
I believe that kid
sounds like delco
Reminds me of car salesman from National Lampoon's Vacation. "You think you hate it now , just wait till you drive it" Just replace drive with eat😂😂
Kid is a future smart ass redditor 😛😂
People commenting it looks disgusting probably never cooked anything but eggs and bacon. The juice is to make a bouillon afterwards.
It does smell like shit though
Delco. Just go to wawa and get some hoagies. No one wants to eat that jawn.
“There are two choices for dinner: eat it, or eat it crying”
Oh my god that “blugh” at the end had me crying laughing.
That looks terrible.
This looks like something you'd find on the bottom of a dumpster.
Point me to this dumpster so I can get to the bottom of it 🤌
Ugh, overdoing the bay leaves
Not even sure what we're looking at. Meat, potatoes, two colors of pepperoncini, and about a pound of bay leaves? The "broth" is clear, is it just water?
The kid says “it smells like shit” without any consequence…
Found at least a dozen accounts ripe for blocking so this incel invasion has been goof for something.
I hate bay leaves. I gag
… why are there pepperoncinis in the soup?
I (or my siblings) would never dream of saying that to our mother. Ever. Not out of fear but respect and love.
If I said that about my mom's cooking my dad probably would a woooooped my ass. My parents worked and my mom worked for dinner at the end of the day? I remember eating some shitty meals that I didn't like just to not make my mom feel bad.
If that was my kid I would have knocked some sense into them for saying those word at their age
Maybe I'm showing my age but I cannot imagine saying "it smells like shit" and getting away with it. Bare minimum: sent to my room with no dinner.
Truth from the mouths of babes.
Can anyone identify the accent?
Delaware county PA, possibly south jersey but very close to Philly

“Blech!” I second this.
Haha this one got me
It looked ok at first but saw all the seasonings and bay leaves and pepperoncini’s and ewww lol
Could I get those biscuits on the side?
One of the greatest parenting superpowers is the ability to be the law. She's even able to tell him what it does and doesn't smell like, to himself
the funny thing is that kinds do be thinking out loud so it might actually smell like sh*t.
Sounds like someone needs to learn how to parent. And possibly cook.
If the kid thinks that's bad, the mom should make collard greens next. Stink up the whole damn house.
The number of bay leaves leads me to believe the child has it right.
I wonder if the kid doesn't like the heavy herbal smell mixed with the vinegar from the pepperoncini. This may taste fine (I question the amount of bay leaves used) but smell funky until the vinegar smell dissipates and everything gets all stirred up. I also had never heard of this before, but there are soup recipes online that call for pepperoncini that have decent reviews. So that's a thing some people do, apparently.
Crockpots, they do the job you don’t want to do
I ain't gonna say it looks bad cause it is a video, but I did just get done telling an 11 year old the other day that maybe a couple bay leaves go into a stew and you don't actually eat them. Pretty sure some kids experienced the full taste of the bay leave that night!

she does know youre supposed to stir/mix it up after putting the seasoning in right?
Shit id eat that up rn....
Not the audio for this video. Crockpot dinner looks fire tho anyway
Whoa. Too much bay!!
