ALL baked goods dilute the flavor of soda so much -- that's why culinary extracts and flavorings (vanilla, almond, orange, etc.) are so potent. If you really want to taste soda, the better approach is to make a syrup or glaze from it and top your pancakes with that. That being said, this was a very entertaining video!
It's curious that soda brands don't do flavoured suyrups concidering how much americans love their soda and pancakes. Would a reduction also decompose some of the citric? If not the suyrup could be quite tart.
The pancake mix has minimal sugar and baking soda in it, but using ACTUAL soda WITH baking soda and sugar would probably be both too sweet, and over aerated from the bubbles which will collapse and actually end up not fluffy enough. So that’s why he did not use pancake mix… But I also might be giving him too much credit for thinking about it that hard.
@leahwilson9152 i guess if you're fully using the soda as water but i know people that make waffles with less than a quarter ish of the required water being sprite and it makes them so fluffy lol
My mom's waffle recipe uses carbonated water to provide the fluffyness. I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one that didn't know that it would work like that.

A similar thing happened to me on FB marketplace. I was talking to a guy about buying a bass guitar for $60 after I said cool I'll take it and asked if he was around today to pick it up the guy goes "umm I am around today but actually I just saw how much they're selling for so im gonna raise the price a little not by a lot" and then he upped the price to $350
Smh. If you're going to look for how much it's worth AFTER listing it and accepting the offered price then you deserve to have a flag on your selling account or something. Hope you ended up with a better bass guitar somewhere else
@@XhanAnimationslol I did this recently on accident but I didn't agree to anyone's low ball way under the already low listing and then decided to look it up because the first lowball came in like 5 mins after being listed and I realized i was around $150 under what others were selling for already, i told them no thanks and then relisted. It's like a $450 product new, lightly used and i originally wanted to just get rid of it and listed for $100, when I realized i relisted for $250 and sold it for that price but only ever got $50 offers when listed at $100.
it was genuinely shocking to me that anything resembling a pancake came out at the end of the first batch, and it had nothing to do with the soda involved

Pancake mixes are so pointless they're almost a waste of time

How is using premade pancake mix the non half assed way to make pancakes lmao
@leahwilson9152 i guess if you're fully using the soda as water but i know people that make waffles with less than a quarter ish of the required water being sprite and it makes them so fluffy lol
"asked the guy for information... waited several weeks... and then lowballed him." a man of culture I see.
I probably would have ended up doing the same thing guy did to Will tbh. Comes with the territory.
My mom's waffle recipe uses carbonated water to provide the fluffyness.

that's just an inefficient way of adding baking soda
