    Hi, everyone! There were a couple questions about cucumber nutrition. There's a bit of potassium and vitamin C, some soluble fiber and phytonutrients. But cucumbers are really a great source of hydration!

    Hi Nicole, I'm a Chinese boy working holiday in Australia, undertaking farm jobs on various farms most of the time. I'm now working on an avocado and blueberry farm. Born into a farming place in central China and working on the farm, I know most of the knowledges about farming, plants and insects. But still I find it really relaxing to watch your episodes. I'm doing jobs like the workers in the fields in your videos, but when you walking, running, smiling and picking, it feels like you're working with me. Thanks for the great videos.

      Maybe if these companies would provide those employees with better working conditions and fair wages, or an actual hourly wage we would see more Americans working in jobs like this. Americans are unappreciative but they are also ignorant especially leftists when it comes to immigration. Illegal migrants devalue what ever jobs they take. In the 1950s working as a butcher used to be a very good job. Now it’s not. Landscapers used to charge all jobs fairly. Now all the illegal migrants severely under charge their jobs and property owners only care about the lowest price rather than quality of work or years experience. That’s the issue with minimum wage. Too many illegal migrants came and took all the minimum wage jobs, the job devalues because of the excess supply and not enough demand lowers the wages. Too many minimum wage job seekers, not enough demand for job positions. Imagine there is a shortage of janitors. There isn’t enough applicants to take the janitor jobs. What employers would do then is make the job more attractive. Employers would increase the wage and provide benefits so someone could do the job. That’s how they job market goes. Less illegal migrants taking jobs, more benefits and increase wages for those job positions to a degree. So yes illegals are taking jobs. Illegals are making those jobs unattractive and worthless. I am saying this as someone who lives with and know lots of illegal migrants. I myself am a landscaper. I have a license in CA I also have degrees and certificates in agriculture, horticulture, landscape design, and business. It’s very difficult to compete with the mow and blow guy charging $10-$30 bucks for monthly service. Landscaping prices are all severely low. I am only in business because I adopted both quality of work and mow and blow strategies. I took a best of both worlds approach and that’s what keeps me in business. But I know other landscapers that only want to do quality work but are out of business because the can’t compete with the low prices. That is why we need strong immigration control. To control the inflow of unskilled workers so that the supply of unskilled workers meets the demand and wages can catch up.

      @@biggus6633 It could of been worded differently, but that person got the point across. Yes there is North America and Latin America, but it is all America.This division is indeed due to Europeans coming to colonize America. Latin America is Latin America because those countries speak Romance languages and those languages are spoken because of the European countries that colonized and brought their language. All Americans are descendants of indigenous people native of this land (North and South).

      If you want to pay them more, why don't you buy a farm, grow cucumbers and hire all these illegals and pay them $50 dollars an hour. Hell, why don't you pay them $100 an hour, it's your farm, you can pay them whatever you want.
      For anyone who love to virtue-signal, as if you're such a good kind person, why don't you walk your talk and do something about it. Take action, instead of just empty talk. Full of complaints.
      Are you just a virtue signaler?

    I am going to join their channel and support this couple who I think are doing an outstanding job doing what they seem to love and educating us on all things food.
    Is it possible to have an Alton Brown and/ or Lan Lam on a cooking science episode too? These two food enthusiasts bring such an awesome science vibe to cooking and foods in general.
