Ben roasting the normals is all I needed on this afternoon.
You can tell he had some genuine fun watching the normals messing about in the kitchen.

Ah I did not expect Jamie to do a sweet recipe. Was expecting baconwrapped...bacon.

Petition to give Barry some kind of badge for good time management, or having an almost clean workspace, or even using hacks .
This was the calmest I've ever seen Barry. Lol

[jenna]

The look on Barry's face. ""Oh. You've actually started it!" Then the pride at an early finish and the shock at being last. All of the emotions.

[PokhrajRoy.]

Ben being fluent in sarcasm with the “Standard movie snack classic, duck fat. What are you making?”. 😂

[jesssssie]

i’m not the biggest fan of hot dogs but i gotta say barry’s sounds great

[mkemp]

Hahahaha, Ebbers not holding back: That looks terrible.
Jamie: What do you mean that looks terrible? mumblefumumble

[devalbhuta]

The fact that Baz made a chilli hot dog before time and Jamie panicked and struggled to get a milkshake amuses me.... 😂

[mugin]

I feel like Mike's is the only one I would want to have during a movie just because it's so simple. The other two were just over engineered to be movie theater food. Barry's is good for casual meetup with friends. Jamie's is good for a party or special event but I'd feel bad for the employee who has make them and do inventory to see how much glassware wasn't returned.

[piranajoe]

I kind of agree but at the same time Barry’s was the most appetizing and the one I’d wanna eat most

[PokhrajRoy.]

Barry’s Scoville Scale has “Woah-aah” and “Ooh dear” as a factor. That’s fascinating 😂

[PokhrajRoy.]

Petition to make “Cheffily” a frequently used technical term.

[texasgal]

A battle!!!

I really enjoy Ebbers giggling!! Too cute!

I would happily eat the waffle nachos and that hotdog. Not sure how I feel about a popcorn milkshake, but I would eat the chocolate and caramel corn on top

[RoboBabe]

This one started so awkwardly and Ben's facial expression most of the time was great and so sassy.

Jamie: popcorn but way messier
Barry: hot dog but way messier
Mike: nachos but quieter

Only one of them actually improved the movie snack as a movie snack! Improving flavor and texture is one thing, but that's not the only thing you have to consider. In the US, on-the-go food is extremely important. We didn't invent sausages but we made them edible while you're walking down the street. We didn't invent burger patties, but we invented taking them with you. We didn't invent ice cream, but we invented the ice cream cone, so you could take ice cream with you without a bowl and spoon to carry - you can eat the "bowl"!

Barry's dog looks like it tastes great, but as Ben says you almost need to eat it with a knife and fork. That goes against the entire point of a hot dog. You can easily lose the bun and replace it with something else if you don't need the portability, and you can't port this so the bun is extraneous.

Jamie's popcorn shake, I mean, I love Jamie, I mostly want him to win, but not today. I was so confused by what he was putting together. Buttered popcorn, or even caramel corn, you can eat and then use a napkin to clean your hand and you're 95% good. Chocolate? FRESH caramel? I can only imagine how sticky your hands are getting. And situated on top of a glass of blended popcorn is a very odd choice. It seems so difficult to properly eat.

Mike's waffle nachos are great. Nachos are great, waffles are great. I don't like ordering nachos in a theater because they tend to be messy and louder than most other things. You get the flavors of American style nachos with the flavored cheese sauce and the flavor of the chips with the waffles. A lot of us make nacho cheese with white American cheese btw, and at home it's really normal to toss in some single slice cheese for the emulsification effect - you can get that without the single cheese by using sodium citrate but most of us have the slices in the fridge already so it's easier. Anyway, I think I would miss the tortilla chip crunch but since this is for movie going, I think it's an all around improvement.

Mike wins!

[leiknudsen]

Ben's giggle at Jamie mixing popcorn into chocolate is just so wholesome. I makes my heart smile

[JAF]

Ben, Ben, Ben there are cinemas where you can order a hamburger and have it brought to you before the movie starts. So the duck dog is not far fetched.

[Ashley-plwr]

Jamie arguably having the most simple recipe yet he's moving about like an absolute nutter had me in stitches lmaooo

[Cirrown]

Ben's facial expressions and his laugh give me so much joy. I can't explain why 🤷🏻‍♀️
