You missed the ball on the rating.
"The table chef, fon-do or fon-dont?"

[tracelii]

"I love my favorite cooking youtube channel"
"Oh yea? what have they made recently?"
"Oh, hot dogs and crushed ice- listen, its a long story"

[mareks]

Ebbers: "Maths and physics says yes"
Me (electrical engineer): Math and physics says that by doubling the voltage You also double the current, which effectivly quadriples the power / heat. Therefore there were two options: Hot Doggers wireing melts (not this case) or hot dog is done four times faster (15 seconds).

Ebbers: "Maths and physics says yes"
pause
"Health and Safety risk assessment says, really?"
His facial expression just made it all the funnier!
😂

The hotdogger works great. In the late 70's I used one in a concession stand. We didn't have large crowds, so you could cook the hotdogs as needed and the rest could stay in the cooler. The switch is the lid, close the lid it on, open the lid it's off.

Mike & Jamie saying danger danger should be a GIF. 😂

[MEMOAN]

You guys need to wear vintage clothes when reviewing vintage gadgets.

Number one rule. 😃

**Plugs Hot Dogger into a car battery and runs**

I've been getting ads for an old school "electricity can kill you" sticker where a humanized bolt of electricity is holding a switchblade and is about to stab a child. It seemed very relevant.

That vegematic brings back so many memories! My mom had one and that's how I had french fries as a kid. We didn't have the money to go out to a fast food restaurant, so we made our own. That thing lasted for about 30 years before she had to get rid of it.

[konata]

mesmerized and disturbed at how ebbers said "it shot up me arm" 😅

[WonderWaageRadio]

Callback to Big Night In... That was a great series.

[anufoalan]

Kinda sad James wasn’t here for the Hot Dogger, I can only imagine what he’d say about it

[thearchivemermaid]

Why is Jamie looking into the camera, smiling and saying "ebay" so funny to me?

[emptyemptiness]

Ah yes, I remember in the 1970s when everyone had a fondue set as a centre piece on the dining table. The adults got together for a cheese fondue (once) then us kids got a chocolate fondue with mum and dad (once) then they were never used again.

[Shrrrg]

Fun fact: Westmark still exists and still does produce the ice crusher

[CrazySharp]

When I was around 6 or 7 (40 years ago) my mom bought one of the ice crushers at a yard sale… we used it for years. Growing up in the country it was always nice just to have crushed ice to eat on a hot summer day when I was little and we had no AC

[Anna_TravelsByRail]

The underwear joke within the first 30 seconds. This must be a record. 😂

[kitnoki]

I absolutely love how they still talk you through recipes even when they’re ancillary to the main part of the video. No other channel I watch does this and it really makes you feel like they love educating the masses about food
