    I love this video because you think it's going to be some grand recipe but they literally just stick an onion into the oven like it's a potato and it looks fucking amazing

      Exactly, I always liked onions, but I'd never tried them like this. I couldn't believe how ridiculously simple this "recipe" was, I tried it, and was blown away. I could literally have this as my whole meal, and I'd be satisfied, it's incredibly simple and good.

      I made one, tasted pretty good but your shit/farts will smell like onions all day

    Love that they made a video on the orange fool (a kind of old-timey drink), and got ass tons of hatemail cause everyone thought it was about the dang cheeto

    Roasted garlic is also good. Gets soft and you can spread it on crackers. The smell will come out your pours for hours tho

    I really liked the mushroom ketchup video. If I wasn't so lazy I'd prob try half of these recipes though this onion looks simple enough.

    Oh yeah, I'm doing a Colonial dinner tonight! Looking forward to bark salad, boiled bone chips, and a nice soot pie.

      That's a really condescending attitude. Poor people the world over have managed to make very little go very far. In fact that's how you get some of the best food.

        Uhh, I was specifically making fun of colonists from the 1800's? The video is about a recipe from land grabbing white people.
