I love how every chef ever interviewed will confirm that Ratatouille is the film that gets the world of restaurants the most accurate

[DaSaintDemon]

I went to culinary school and the first class was theory, the basics, security and organizing. They showed us the clips of Ratatuille were the girl is teaching the guy the basics. My teachers told me "despite being a cartoon, its a great way to show how real kitchen works"

[michaeldorso]

Fun fact: Rats have the complete inability to throw up or gag. So therefore, Linguini's soup was so horrible, it broke the laws of nature.

[Mambo]

The reason Ratatouille is so accurate is in large part because the creators did their due diligence consulting with a real chef, I recommend checking out the bonus features for more details.

I've been cooking professionally for over a decade. Ratatouille is one of the most accurate films I've ever seen. It's one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time.

[seymourbuttz]

I'm so glad Jason Mraz took time out of his busy schedule to teach us about culinary arts

[pitchblackcap]

"It could not be more accurate"
*group of rats cooking*

[NatTalks]

When the movie about rats cooking is the most accurate one on the list lmaoo can we get some appreciation for all the research that goes into animations

[protonjones]

When you've worked in a McDonald's kitchen before:
_You know, I'm something of a chef myself._

[tomngo]

Plot twist: there’s actually a rat under his hat controlling him

[alargepie]

Fun fact: Michelin stars are given out by the same Michelin that makes the tires on your car. In the early 1900s, the founders of Michelin thought people would drive more and therefore use more tires if they put out a guide to the best restaurants around

[JonathanVieker]

This guy elevates smirking to an art form.

[j.bogota]

Now we need a serial killer reacts to scenes of slasher movies

[deafnoisemarine]

Next: Health inspector reviews Ratatouille

[shavashchannel]

When you realise: Ratatuille is the most technically correct cook movie.

[stepankhakimov]

They should’ve included Hannibal cooking

[outsider_in]

Professional Chef: "Now, see, this not actually very realistic because actually rats cannot cook."

Me. **Takes notes.**

[Umualet]

This guy talks about culinary school like a marine talking about boot camp.

[Gingersnaps]

Not sure why he’s getting slammed for referencing culinary school. He was critiquing films scenes set in a culinary school. Seems fairly relevant

[jacquelinecallejas]

I love that the cartoon where a character says to the other "Keep your station clean or I will KILL you!" is the one the professional chef felt was really accurate.
