I want to thank all of you guys, and James as well. My wife and I watched cooking videos while we ate lunch or dinner. I lost my wife on Sunday Feb 26, and this is the first video I've even attempted to watch without her. I'll have to come back to actually watch it, because I couldn't see it through tears, and couldn't pay enough attention to know what all happened. But I want to thank you, and a few other content creators for the memories I have of sharing meals, laughs, and learning with my wife while watching your videos. Thank you all.

I would love to see Ben and Kush each create a dish from the same ingredients not necessarily in competition, but without consultation.

[nikwalters]

Just the fact that Ben can talk through his process in a 15 minute battle and not get sidetracked is amazing to me.

[NordicTXPK]

For short cooking times, I'd LOVE to see an edit that actually shows the full open the box all the way to meal done for Ben. I think that would be a fun thing to watch

[Mirala]

Not Barry forgetting that aquafaba can be used as an egg replacement when the chickpeas are sitting right there😂

[tagm]

OH! The child holding the tea towel with the James & Janice line was

[Annor-TM]

I love it how Kush is helping normals from time to time

[elizabethheyn]

I love how the box was very Asian (i thought: maybe some kind of curry) and they both made dishes that I very much associate with the British. 😆

The green sauces were very intriguing - makes me want to give it a go.

Is it bad that when I first heard Vegan challenge, I already thought Ben had this one locked just based off of Barry's previous records with vegan challenges...

[valliarlette]

Clever of Barry to play to Mike’s palate. Ben’s cheffiness really did shine.

[AmicusFire]

Best way to get home from work is to see a newly released episode. Thank you lads!

[ericahazra]

Really thought Barry had this one! The mango shallots sound so good.

[LordBunnyBone]

This video really showed two different views on vegan food in my opinion. Barry right from the beginning thought about meat substitudes and what he could use as "chicken", compared to Ben who thought about a meal that is vegan.

IMO it is way easier if you don't think about how to replace meat and instead just think about how to use vegan ingredients.

Let's get a Chef vs Chef with Kush vs Ben.

Gotta love Baz asking J for an alternative to egg for pane, when he has a can of aquafaba which is very commonly used as an egg alternative in things like cakes

[kalliste]

Given Ben mentioned mostly eating vegetarian at home, it would be great to see more vegetarian recipes on the channel.

[manug]

i can't imagine turning out a proper meal in 15 minutes, the lunch I made to sit down and watch this video took 20 and it's the simplest wrap you could imagine haha. awesome!

[deanc]

As much as I love Ben’s dish and I respect him for doing so much in 15 minutes, he did make beans on toast and ensured all sauce was green. Barry’s was a mess balance-wise but it was creative and for that I applaud him

[xXIxidorXx]

Loved watching this as someone who struggles with dairy. I've been experimenting with silken tofu in a few ways and loving it, though the idea of blending it with spinach never occurred to me. I'll definitely be trying it.

The mango chutney in a quick pickle was downright inspired. Loved it.

Great episode as always guys

[jaredbissenden]

I would love to see the unedited 15m/30m as well as seeing a version where Ben's side doesn't start until the "normal" has had their 15 minutes for a contrast as to what they use the extra time for...
