Food Theory: Can You ACTUALLY Cook an Egg on the Sidewalk?

Theorists, you've probably heard the expression "it's so hot you can cook an egg on the sidewalk!" But today we're here in sunny California to find out... can we actually do it? And not just eggs, but what about a whole breakfast with bacon and toast? Let's hit the sidewalk and find out!

0:58 as I've said before, the team is a family, and matpat has left the kids alone, so now we get to see the sibling dynamics

On the surface, it looks like Santi got kicked out of the office but still had to make a video.

[aemidaniels]

the fact that you could touch the sidewalk without wincing told me immediately that the pavement wasnt hot enough lol

[AngelinaHickman-ph]

It is not nearly hot enough out if your able to touch your bare skin to the concrete for that long. Trust me it is quite easy to fry an egg on an average summer day is Phoenix.

So a Food Theory resturant will cook with a clothes drying machine and a hot sidewalk.

[GoofyAhhChriss]

“can skin melt in this heat???
that’s a food theory for another time”
WHAT DO YOU MEAN FOOD?!?!

[ThatZenithDude]

13:50 It may not be Diner worthy, but at least it’s school worthy.

[NiceBearWantsIceCream]

If you can lay your bare skin on a driveway, its not really going to cook the food, bacon is meat, you are meat. Second, the eggs on that little sidewalk was initially in dappled shade, meaning that the concrete wasnt even the highest it could have been. I love food theory, but this was a terrible attempt, even though it ended with what could be called some success.

person driving in the driveway: this inflation problem has gotten so bad that homless man be cooking on asphalt

- Walking Casually
- "Why is there an egg on the sidewalk?"

[bobhope]

You tried to cook on the side walk, but you chose a cold day?
Come out to Palm Springs, It's 10º-15º hotter than that for 3 months straight.
Doing it on a 122º day at 4pm, will improve your result.
Also, that was some gray looking asphalt, choosing some fresher, blacker asphalt will get that egg cookin' in no time.

[facktart]

It's not hot enough outside if you have the courage to lay down on the concrete

[rafterscott]

It's over 100 degrees and he's lying down on pavement.

Thank you for your sacrifice.

[sofiamorales]

What a way to start a video; "I'm locked out of Jason's house 😀"

[marenjones]

The fact that you can sit on the sidewalk tells me it's not hot enough.

[ScottMaday]

I love how the critically of the cement temperature is stressed meanwhile he’s cooking an egg on the sidewalk *in the shade*

[ilsottopagato]

Imagine being the neighbours, seeing a random guy casually making breakfast on the sidewalk for two hours

[jamez]

I'm just imagining Jason coming back home to see that his coworker has smeared egg, bacon and bread on your driveway and having to clean it off.

[JuneReed-zi]

Santi, you forgot the power of manholes. Manholes are made of metal so they can get to much higher temperatures than the ground. I've fried an egg on a manhole before and it properly fried. I got my picture in the local news for that.
