I love how the flour companies used to put cute prints on their cloth flour sacks during the depression. They found out people were using the sacks to make kids clothes and quilts so they put cute prints on the sacks. We don't get that kind of caring from corporate America anymore.
because how can mom and pop corporate America pander to a nation with so many anti-white, anti-black, anti this anti that rhetoric anymore? Keep things sterile because society doesn't deserve sympathy or personable transactions.
as much as we’ve lived a lie and Betty doesn’t exist, the advice does sound pretty wholesome, the fact they were even telling them advice to save money and being there for people is nice, companies don’t do like this anymore!
Bailey, I am a Home Ec teacher. You can't imagine how underrated this class is! So sad. The people that make decisions about Education think life skills won't help students 😕 Wow! Thank you all! I really enjoyed your comments!
The fact that the “people who make decisions about education” no longer believe life skills are important, says all we ever need to know about the quality of “their” decisions. Especially at a time when most kids have no way to learn from their parents if they even have any. Think generations have now graduated without home ec, and those parent(s) have to work ~3 jobs just to keep a roof over the kids’ head. Society is in a very sad place. 😭😭😭
I made both of my kids take home ec and both started off with exasperated dramatic everyone will laugh at me sighs and both ended up with is being their favorite teachers and favorite memories. Especially the “ that class is for girls” and losers” son who immediately learned that the girls were smitten with the soccer star who happily ate any and everything they wanted to bake with him. He’s a remarkable father and husband and I credit much of that to his life skills, humaning skills, sewing and kitchen skills all learned in home ec. So thank you
I used to work in an office and I made cakes for each person’s birthday. I used Betty Crocker cake mixes and decorated the cakes to match each person’s personality and likes. This took me quite a while. I did this for six years. One day I accidentally heard people complaining that I used cake mixes instead of making the cakes from scratch. They didn’t know I was within hearing range. I never made another cake for coworkers again and moved to a different job. Needless to say, I don’t make cakes at my present job.
Dude if you enjoyed doing it then just do it 🖤 just a staff room surprise , most people will be grateful. The people who shook that confidence of yours are total bell ends, most people aren't. So what you going to bake next ?
There is a tombstone near my grandparents that on the back has “Mabel’s Potato Salad” followed by the recipe. I imagine she was asked for it many times but didn’t want to share until it was engraved in stone it was hers🙂
I hated to hear that schools were discontinuing Home Economics classes because they really helped me learn more about cooking. Fortunately I also had a mom, stepmom & Granny to teach me at home, but not everyone has that. When I was 12, I was cooking family dinners. Not everyone gets to learn, & I feel bad for them.
Although Betty Crocker was not actually one woman, what I took away from this episode is that she was a collaboration of many. During that time I'm happy to think that Samuel was smart enough to hand the riegns to Marjorie. Behind the scenes this was a woman driven business that became extremely sucessful. I would imagine they were not paid what they deserved but groundbreaking at the same time. Thank you Bailey and staff for this story.....PS I had home Economics in school and also a business class that tought us checkbook balancing, taxes and following the stock market.....I date myself, but agree we should all know how to maneuver in this life as best we can.
In high school I signed myself out of calculus, and trigonometry and signed myself up for accounting classes, because I knew I needed to know how to properly balance a check book more than imaginary shapes in the sky and advanced mathematics I would never use. I also took all three levels of home ec classes because I knew I needed the basic home skills not algebra. This was in 1986 g 1987. I got a college degree in a arts line of study so...I didn't needed those advanced maths, I needed to balance my budget to pay for bills plus college expenses. I just wish schools today would realize that most students are not even wanting to go to college .. they want to learn woodworking so they could open and run their own cabinetry making companies Imo we need to recognize, as a society that while we do need doctors . We also need trained car mechanics and educated skilled appliance repair persons
@@tonietteh2015 You're correct. We need mechanics & plumbers & anyone who works in the trades you mentioned. I have a great deal of respect for these people who can do any type of trade.
At work the other day I complimented a customers hoodie that said suspish and she said “Aw you watch bailey ? Of course you do look at your makeup” I didn’t even realize it was her merch but omfg she really called me out like that 😂
I was so against Dark history because I loved your true crime and makeup series so much. Plus, Change is hard. After a while I caved and started listing to Dark history and now I'm in love with it. I get to have all the hilarious Bailey content with out the anxiety inducing hangover I get from watching too much true crime. Plus it's super interesting. Win win!
We still have my moms Betty Crocker cookbooks from the 50s 60s 70s and 80s. It’s interesting to see how the recipes have changed over the years. Like Jello deserts we all the rage in the 60s lol. When I look at those books with their vanilla extract stains still there it brings back great memories of her.
I always gave them as wedding gifts. In the old days...lol the had a binder form that adored and it always had a spot of this or that I was making. I really did adore that cookbook...from how long to boil eggs to fancy dinners.
I understand completely. The flower in the pages, crusty sugar and vanilla stains...and all the written recipes or magazine recipes put in the pages. Lol...I lived baking with my mom. We were poor so...alot if bread products and all sweets were homemade.
Being a Minnesota native, I've known who the "real" Betty is since I was a kid. Even so, growing up with Betty was great. In the 60s and 70s, the Betty Crocker Cookbook was still the holy book of cooking. That, and just about anything in the grocery store with the Betty Crocker name on it automatically meant quality to a lot of people.
Here's a fun fact about Betty crocker. The cake mixes started out being just add water but people complained that it seemed like they weren't "really baking" so that's why they made it to add eggs, oil and water lol
@@labhrais6957 actually Mattpat did a video on this! I **think** I remember it ending up being that you can just add water and you don't need the egg or the oil. Double check his channel but I'm pretty sure that's what it ended with! So you may still be in luck!
Great story! I had home ec in high school, and really grateful I did. My 18 y/o daughter just told me the other day she wish they would offer not only home ec, but classes on taxes, voting, budgeting, basic car care and home repairs (basically early adult classes) in high school, make it mandatory. I agree, would be so helpful! My daughter and I love listening to you Bailey!!
Here’s a quote for you: “Aunt Jemima was based on a caricature that a real Black woman, Nancy Green, was hired to portray.” So basically Aunt Jemima wasn’t real. But a real Black woman had taken a job portraying the racist caricature on which the Aunt Jemima fictitious character was modeled.
It’s true. A representative from Quaker Oats saw Anna Cooking and making pancakes at a country fair, and drew her picture and used her likeness to to make a “caricature “ of her and named the caricature “Aunt Jamima” And I’m sure if all of the “do gooders” of the world were to ask any POC … they wouldn’t want the pictures or images of Aunt Jamima, Uncle Ben, Famous Amos … etc… taken away. There is very little in the way that POC are represented… ok, modernize them, but leave them there.
I've been watching Bailey for years and I have to say it's wildly impressive how she's able to present information. I was watching this one like huh you can never tell if these are fully scripted or not. What a skill.
You look healthy and well rested Bailey. Wish I could say the same LOL. It's arthritis season so I'm laying on my bed with my heating pad watching your show. Joan is looking very spiffy in her apron, I MUST say!!
@@BaileySarian First hour: 2k upthumbin' viewerz. Second hour: 4k upthumbin' viewerz. A Cutefyed Miss who don't miss, knowz something about bakin' Dark History video productionz. On WHO'z tombstone shall we find that recipe?
Bailey! You probably won't see this but thank you for posting! You make going through the day to day more tolerable and being able to listen to you while I'm busy makes things go by so much smoother. Thank you for all you do!
You know whats funny? In middle school during summer school our “computer” teacher actually taught us how to fill out a w2, i9 and how to start a business entity. Mind you that was early 90’s. Thank you Bailey for all you do for us on the channel! 💋
My senior year history teacher taught the entire how to fill out a w2. Including assigned a budget project where I'm the scenario, the student is "married" with two "kids". Including they have been working 10 years in a chosen career so we made a budget based on all that
@@rosa3299 thats amazing. We really do need this taught in schools. Many youths who go out into the world dont have any idea taxes/medicare/ss is taken from their checks. Or how to fill out any types of federal paperwork
@@Cloudy_SkieZ1 I was lucky. We did one in 8th grade for a career prep class that was mandatory for all 8th graders. Then in my senior my history teacher assigned all seniors the budget project that I explained. I also had a personal finance class that taught the basics of finance. I was lucky to have teacher that willing taught budgeting and that my school had a class all about finance. If I hadn't has the opportunities in senior I don't think I would even remember how to fill out a w2 form. Because that mandatory class was so long ago
These skills are so underrated! When I was a resident assistant I had so many freshman knocking on my door to ask how to do laundry, how to cash a check and even a couple asking how to fill out a check.
Does everyone see the 'universe is unlicensed' thing on the video? I'm sure it was just a small mistake. They will probably take it down and reupload when they find out. Anyways thank you so much Bailey for this amazing video as always. ♥♥
There's a video called Everything You Know is a Lie by Lloyd Pye. If you like that you may also enjoy The Unscrambled Channel and JonLevi. The world is full of mysterious things. Also try Mudfossil University for some Bible truth.
Another cool thing is that I'm pretty sure this is the same company that printed patterns on their flour sacks bc some families were making dresses out of them
My grandmother had two daughters and would remove stitches and remake their dresses for school from the flour sacks. She said that during the struggle of the dust bowl people assumed they were still wealthy ranchers because the girls had so many nice dresses. They had two, one for Sunday one for school, both made from sewing and redesigning the same flour sacks. I can’t imagine, my sewing skills are hysterically comical.
First hour 2k upthumbin' viewerz. Hour 2, 4k upthumbin' viewerz. Somebody knowz somethin' 'bout bakin' Dark History video productionz. On WHO'z tombstone shall we find THAT recipe?
At the risk of dating myself, I had home economics in high school. There was actually an exra caricular organization called FHA (future homemakers of America). They gave out an award each year for Future Homemaker of the year. How do I know? Because I actually won this award my senior year.
I had home economics but never did we have an award thing. If we passed...that was an award lol 😆. It was literally my favorite class and I made all A's
I was double catfished because the no-bake cookie recipe that I thought was my moms original recipe my entire childhood was just from a betty crocker cookbook
The chocolate oatmeal ones? We called them raggedy Robins. I only found out they're called no bake cookies when my best friend brought me some of "her moms special no bake cookies"... lol
Funny thing about the cake mixes: it's true that when they first came out, they only required you to add water. But housewives at the time complained that they were actually too easy to make and felt guilty that it was so low effort, so they changed it so that now it requires an egg as well. Lol
In Sweden we have hemkunskap (home knowledge) and everyone has it during a few years where you learn about everything from laundry to cooking food and how to be climate smart. It was most people's favorite class from what I remember haha, ly bailey:)
🌹🌹🌹Did males take the class, as well as, females? I think that would be great. I think everyone ought to take a home economics class! I think it's great it included laundry too. I don't think I've known any people who could do laundry very well. All I did was use LOGIC, and it worked. Many of the people I've known could completely ruin clothes and linens FAST! Haha!🌹🌹🌹
@@roseannes6761 hahah yeah i get that, but yes there was both guys and girls and everything in between. And it was obligatory and you got grade for it. Btw there was also more in the class, like how to do the dishes and how to structure your economy :))
Thanks to Betty crocker and other brands that have easily available cake mixes, I was able to grow up with having a handmade birthday cake every year by my mother, she would make the frosting by scratch and then use the cake mix box for the cake. And this inspired me to learn how to bake from scratch and continue cake decorating like my mom did and now I've made a career out of it. So this was a very interesting video to listen to because I wouldn't be who I am today had I not have cakes handmade for my birthday. I'm very interested to know about Marjorie and what she did after she left Betty crocker, I'm on a car trip so I may have misunderstood but I believe you said she made her own business after leaving Betty crocker. What business was this how well did it go. I would love any kind of feedback you can give me about this!💜
Bailey you look amazing! You prob won’t see this but I named my daughter bailey after you! In the Uk bailey is more of a boy name but when I watched the first video of you I was like ‘ when I have a girl, she’s soooo being called bailey monroe!’ Two of the most iconic queens 😍
I was zoned out while house cleaning & I had this video playing all zoned out & suddenly Bailey says LIIIINNNDUH! Lol that's my name I snapped out of the zone real quick 🤣
Love the dark history series!! Also I really like when you sometimes do episodes that are a little less dark like this one :) super easy to listen to & doesn’t put me in a bad headspace, but still with the subtle undertone of “fight the power” 👌
My mom's main cookbook was the Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook from the early 60's (she got when she was married in '63). It was a great recipe book and she still has it!
I have my Grandma's Betty Crocker Cookbook. It's my go to cookbook to this day. Grandma was married in the early 1920's. Not sure when she got the cookbook.
I took Home Ec and I still do all the things I learned. I even sewed all my kids Halloween costumes. I even started a boutique of girls dresses and traveled my state for a while. Working from home is so underrated.
I have been on a Bailey benge since last night! 👏STOP EXPLAINING YOURSELF TO PEOPLE 👏👏 You are beautiful and amazing and don't need to justify yourself to no body! Keep doing you unapologetically!!! 💚💙
The Depression Cake is also known as a Wacky Cake. When making the Wacky Cake if you remove 2 Tblsps of flour and add an additional 2 Tblsps of Cocoa (I use Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa) your cake will come out super moist and very dark chocolatey. My family has been making this cake recipe since the Great Depression. There was also a white cake recipe known as a lightening cake that has no flavoring in it yet comes out tasting fabulous. Both of these cakes can be made into layers , or Bundt cake.
I'm not sure if this is correct but it's what I found when searching: Ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 1 cup white sugar 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 1 teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon salt 6 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 tablespoon cider vinegar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup water Directions: 1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2) Sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into an 8x8-inch ungreased cake pan. Make 3 depressions in the flour mixture. Pour oil into one well, vinegar into second, and vanilla into third well. Pour water over all, then stir with a fork until well blended. 3) Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
Yes that's the recipe. When you sift your flour remove 2 Tablespoons. Then for your Cocoa I use Hershey Special Dark add 1 additional Tbls if making an 8x8 or 2 if you double to make a 13x9. I have made this cake even in the Backcountry wilderness in cast iron pans on a campfire but you need to adjust the recipe for altitude. It's a great recipe and my family has been making it for generations.
I remember when I found out that “making a cake from scratch” didn’t mean making it at home using Betty Crocker…it wasn’t that long ago either. Like when people asked me if I made my Betty Crocker cake from scratch I’d say “yeah, can’t buy this” bc I thought they were talking about the cake being already made when I bought it! Listen, I added egg, milk and butter or whatever, dirtied pans and mixed things together so that ish felt like real “baking from scratch” to me 😭
honey, it was your cake! you made from scratch: you added the ingredients & did the mixing and place it in the oven to bake+ it's your cake from scratch!
The depression cakes aren't bad. You don't really taste the vinegar it's like a Red Velvet cake, which also has vinegar in it. The vinegar gives it a slight tangy flavor that you wouldn't expect to work but it does.
I was a adverting/marketing major in college & that’s where I learned the truth about Betty Crocker. My whole world was turned upside down 😂 the tactics used to market to ppl are incredible.
Who has time to wait for a cake to bake when we're NEEDING to stress eat? Lick the spoon and bowl! Thank you for sharing that, Bailey! Now I don't feel guilty for doing the same thing.
Lol, as some one that took Money Management in 7th Grade I’m angry for you and my daughter. Im 32 and remember taking a course on stocks and how to save/mange your money. I also took woodshop, home economics and pottery! I really wish every state taught the same!!
I love how the crow in the back is wearing an apron. Love your videos Bailey, been watching you for years and it always makes me happy when you post. Happy Birthday!!
Had this playing in the car (maybe a little too loud) at that part and busted out laughing. The super cute southern granny next to me didn't think it was very hilarious 😂😂😂
I always thought it was weird that no one noticed she didn’t age. She actually got younger overall. Lol She was there for grandparents to grandchildren and never aged a day!
I love baking and really appreciate my Home-Ec classes. I also feel like this story could be a Netflix series that could also help with practical things like the Depression Cake ( my Mom and I still uses a similar recipe for when we run out of eggs and milk) . It gives me Mad Men vibes and I am here for it😊
Love that I'm always early on your YT video. ❤️ As a person whose not from the US, these kinds of videos are very interesting for me and I really find it so informative. US history is freaking wild!!
I'm not from the US either. I do however live on the same northern continent as America. America's history is wild, and America's, right this minute, is wild too.
Bailey! Again, YOU are an incredible storyteller. From Killers to Betty all in the same original style. Your timing, dramatics, gestures, language - all of it - have all of the best elements of compelling storytelling -and you can capture the details that fascinate in your narrative. We appreciate it.
I took three years of Home Ec in High School mainly to get out of taking other stuff. I actually learned a lot. I graduated in the dark ages (1968) so it was just girls. I too have eaten frosting out of the can 😂Thanks for being so honest! I learn a lot from your videos!
You're def my escape from the troubles in my life.. Even if it's only momentarily lol Thanks for the constant uploads! We appreciate you and all your hard work!
I have a vintage Betty Crocker cookbook that used to belong to my mother. She gifted it to me in the 80s and it's one of my few sentimental treasures from her. I feel like by the time I was born, everyone understood Betty Crocker was a concept rather than a person, but I didn't know it was initially a man's idea! I love this - lots of women writers used a masculine (or genderless) pen name to brand themselves, but this is the first time I learned of a man doing that!
I hate to hear they aren’t doing home ec classes anymore. It’s been almost 20 yrs since I was in high school and I will always remember my “life skills” class.
In 2004 I took, home economics, sewing 101, cooking 101, and I would have taken more but not enough kids signed up. It's how I discovered designers like Jeremy Scott and delicious cardamom cookies! Also learned to make a backpack!
That’s impressive. I took home ec, it was a requirement back in my time, and all I sewed was a really awful pair of stirrup pants… I do not see well. Straight line? Nope… My husband though.. he can sew lol
I sometimes let my daughter watch dark history if it's a subject like this to keep her interested in history. But when Bailey started talking about her Santa Claus moment I had flour all over my hands so I just had to loudly burst into song to distract her. 😬😬😬😄
I had no idea that the Betty Crocker legacy was so interesting and lengthy. And with such humble beginnings. The little flour sack recipes was such a cute idea tbh
Funny, I saved a recipe two days ago on how to make green bean casserole for Thanksgiving from Betty Crocker, and then Bailey makes a Dark History episode on this brand! Talk about perfect timing!🙌🖤
i absolutely love your videos you make my Mondays and Thursdays so much better. I grew up with a learning disorder and it was hard to remember what i had learned and you make it so immersive I cant stop listening. So i guess what i'm saying is Thank you Bailey.
I LOVE YOUR HAIR! And yes, as a teacher, school isn’t fun anymore. I can’t teach how I want to teach. We need to bring back vocational classes, because yeah, still don’t use Pi to the tenth power! Love your videos!!
You eating cake batter and half a thing of frosting makes me love you even more! The number of times I've had to berate myself into not doing that, is astounding.
Joan C in that apron is everything!!! I had home economics, but it was forced on us girls so that makes it a different vibe than cool. The brownie-cookie combo mix is awesome, even though I usually bake from scratch. Always love your vids girl.
You’re the only RUclipsr that can keep me entertained throughout the whole video. My attention span is so bad but I could listen to you tell me history all day and not get bored lol
@@labhrais6957 yass me too lately but i know lol. hope i get cred if she do 😆 patent pending. Its catchy n fun My kids get u guys are wild all the time. It has a ring to it n Bailey is the perfect voice for it
Recently made a cake with vinegar as you described. Eggs are like $4 a dozen now! It was yummy, but i prefer unsweetened applesauce as a substitute for eggs.
I love how the flour companies used to put cute prints on their cloth flour sacks during the depression. They found out people were using the sacks to make kids clothes and quilts so they put cute prints on the sacks. We don't get that kind of caring from corporate America anymore.
That's because America was much different then...we had actual community, that's been gone since the 60s lol
The way our economy is going it would be a boon right now
I remember hearing about that from my mom's family from the south
Wow!
because how can mom and pop corporate America pander to a nation with so many anti-white, anti-black, anti this anti that rhetoric anymore? Keep things sterile because society doesn't deserve sympathy or personable transactions.
My mother was Miss Betty Crocker 1953. It remains the highlight of her life.
Your mom sounds like a badass ^__^
Wow that's amazing
That is sooooo cool!!!!
She must have been so happy
Adelaide Hawley?
as much as we’ve lived a lie and Betty doesn’t exist, the advice does sound pretty wholesome, the fact they were even telling them advice to save money and being there for people is nice, companies don’t do like this anymore!
well it actually was a real woman behind those advices, so its more like an artist name
Bailey, I am a Home Ec teacher. You can't imagine how underrated this class is! So sad. The people that make decisions about Education think life skills won't help students 😕

It’s no wonder we have ADULTS now that grew up on Fruity pebbles, Pizza rolls, Hawaiian Punch, and Skittles. 🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
I made both of my kids take home ec and both started off with exasperated dramatic everyone will laugh at me sighs and both ended up with is being their favorite teachers and favorite memories.
Especially the “ that class is for girls” and losers” son who immediately learned that the girls were smitten with the soccer star who happily ate any and everything they wanted to bake with him. He’s a remarkable father and husband and I credit much of that to his life skills, humaning skills, sewing and kitchen skills all learned in home ec.
So thank you
Life skills should come from PARENTS
It would be my Uber smart kiddos favorite class 🥰🥰🥰
I used to work in an office and I made cakes for each person’s birthday. I used Betty Crocker cake mixes and decorated the cakes to match each person’s personality and likes.

That was so mean of them.

Those people sound lame and entitled and I'm glad you're at a new place now. ❤
Those people are so ungrateful. The fact you went out of your way to do something nice for people is awesome and should be appreciated!!
What losers. I love cakes, I don't care if it's from a box. Maybe now they're missing your delicious cakes now that they're gone.
I had no idea Betty Crocker wasn't a real person, but the fact that you can write to her in Minnesota seems on point
Yeah, I'm a Minnesotan and I didn't know you can write "her" today. Guess my crazy state loves indulging a century-old fantasy...haha.
There is a tombstone near my grandparents that on the back has “Mabel’s Potato Salad” followed by the recipe. I imagine she was asked for it many times but didn’t want to share until it was engraved in stone it was hers🙂
aww that is so sweet!
That's sweet 🧁
that idea is in reverberation now.
thanks bailey

In hurst Texas school still have Home Economic
So does Mansfield ISD in Texas and springtown both areas I went to
Here in IL (idk about all schools but my kids school at least) still has home ec.! My daughter is in it next semester.
I agree, the things I had to eat made by myself when I first moved out…. Yuck.
The school I work at still has it in NJ. The kids make things like omelets, cookies, pizza, tacos, Buffalo chicken dip
Okay but can we do a Dark History on Frida Kahlo because the way Mexico views her and the United States views her is wildly different!
Really?! How so?? I'm so curious 🧐
Do explain
YES!!!!!
Please do this!!
Yessss I’m also super curious now
Although Betty Crocker was not actually one woman, what I took away from this episode is that she was a collaboration of many. During that time I'm happy to think that Samuel was smart enough to hand the riegns to Marjorie. Behind the scenes this was a woman driven business that became extremely sucessful. I would imagine they were not paid what they deserved but groundbreaking at the same time. Thank you Bailey and staff for this story.....PS I had home Economics in school and also a business class that tought us checkbook balancing, taxes and following the stock market.....I date myself, but agree we should all know how to maneuver in this life as best we can.
In high school I signed myself out of calculus, and trigonometry and signed myself up for accounting classes, because I knew I needed to know how to properly balance a check book more than imaginary shapes in the sky and advanced mathematics I would never use.
I also took all three levels of home ec classes because I knew I needed the basic home skills not algebra.
This was in 1986 g 1987.
I got a college degree in a arts line of study so...I didn't needed those advanced maths, I needed to balance my budget to pay for bills plus college expenses.
I just wish schools today would realize that most students are not even wanting to go to college .. they want to learn woodworking so they could open and run their own cabinetry making companies
Imo we need to recognize, as a society that while we do need doctors . We also need trained car mechanics and educated skilled appliance repair persons
I graduated in 99 and we had to learn all of that. I went to one high school that taught how to invest in stocks.
I graduated in 2017 and I also had these classes! Just took them in middle school instead of high school
@@tonietteh2015 You're correct. We need mechanics & plumbers & anyone who works in the trades you mentioned. I have a great deal of respect for these people who can do any type of trade.
Bailey you always look beautiful but today you look exceptionally beautiful. The hair and the make up is just so classy.
💯
I agree 💯 She absolutely glows.. SSSHHH!! that makes her angry. But that Bailey is definitely looking soooo, Hot... SHAADAAA SHAAA!! 😁
Agree
Your hair, your makeup, your clothing and your story telling it is all so perfect
At work the other day I complimented a customers hoodie that said suspish and she said “Aw you watch bailey ? Of course you do look at your makeup” I didn’t even realize it was her merch but omfg she really called me out like that 😂

I get compliments on my suspish hoodie all the time!

We still have my moms Betty Crocker cookbooks from the 50s 60s 70s and 80s. It’s interesting to see how the recipes have changed over the years. Like Jello deserts we all the rage in the 60s lol. When I look at those books with their vanilla extract stains still there it brings back great memories of her.
I always gave them as wedding gifts. In the old days...lol the had a binder form that adored and it always had a spot of this or that I was making. I really did adore that cookbook...from how long to boil eggs to fancy dinners.
So true. I still have my mom’s from when she married in 1948. I prefer those recipes to the revised edition I received as a teenager. Big difference.
I understand completely. The flower in the pages, crusty sugar and vanilla stains...and all the written recipes or magazine recipes put in the pages. Lol...I lived baking with my mom. We were poor so...alot if bread products and all sweets were homemade.
its the hooves?
You should definitely do dark history on lullabies, muffin man, Ring around the Rosie, etc!! That would be 🧛♀️🕯
YES!!! "Ring Around The Rosie" and Mother Goose are definitely steeped in Dark History.
Yes! I would love to see that. I wrote a paper once on The Black Plague & how Ring Around the Rosie came about. Super interesting
Yes, please do!!!!!
🙌
I just heard the muffin man one recently! I messaged her about it !
Being a Minnesota native, I've known who the "real" Betty is since I was a kid. Even so, growing up with Betty was great. In the 60s and 70s, the Betty Crocker Cookbook was still the holy book of cooking. That, and just about anything in the grocery store with the Betty Crocker name on it automatically meant quality to a lot of people.
Here's a fun fact about Betty crocker. The cake mixes started out being just add water but people complained that it seemed like they weren't "really baking" so that's why they made it to add eggs, oil and water lol
Those jerks lol
Ruining it for us lazy people
@@labhrais6957 actually Mattpat did a video on this! I **think** I remember it ending up being that you can just add water and you don't need the egg or the oil. Double check his channel but I'm pretty sure that's what it ended with! So you may still be in luck!
i usually use sparkling water because it makes it lower in calories and because i'm vegan and don't eat eggs, and it works great
@@sabrinasgandurra4818 their still water only, you don't need the egg and oil. Matpat did prove that
Great story! I had home ec in high school, and really grateful I did. My 18 y/o daughter just told me the other day she wish they would offer not only home ec, but classes on taxes, voting, budgeting, basic car care and home repairs (basically early adult classes) in high school, make it mandatory. I agree, would be so helpful! My daughter and I love listening to you Bailey!!
I've been saying this for years!
Aunt Jemima was actually real! How do I know? She was based off of my Great Great Aunt. I would love for you to do a dark history episode on her! 🙃
Where is the evidence on this? Because the exact opposite is all that’s ever been reported- that she was a mammy stereotype
Here’s a quote for you:
“Aunt Jemima was based on a caricature that a real Black woman, Nancy Green, was hired to portray.”
So basically Aunt Jemima wasn’t real. But a real Black woman had taken a job portraying the racist caricature on which the Aunt Jemima fictitious character was modeled.
Anna Short Harrington is her name.
Interested!!!!
It’s true. A representative from Quaker Oats saw Anna Cooking and making pancakes at a country fair, and drew her picture and used her likeness to to make a “caricature “ of her and named the caricature “Aunt Jamima”
And I’m sure if all of the “do gooders” of the world were to ask any POC … they wouldn’t want the pictures or images of Aunt Jamima, Uncle Ben, Famous Amos … etc… taken away. There is very little in the way that POC are represented… ok, modernize them, but leave them there.
I've been watching Bailey for years and I have to say it's wildly impressive how she's able to present information. I was watching this one like huh you can never tell if these are fully scripted or not. What a skill.
Best storyteller ever.
Watch the credits. It's fully scripted and she reads a telle prompter
I couldn’t figure out why this video felt weird after I finished listening to it. NO ONE DIED 😅

Hey Bailey, the first kitchen bible was really the Fannie Farmer cookbook - first published in 1896, I have had a copy my entire adult life. Cheers!
I have one of those. Real person?
But did it sell 75 million copies? If not, I don’t think you can call it the Kitchen Bible lol
You look healthy and well rested Bailey. Wish I could say the same LOL. It's arthritis season so I'm laying on my bed with my heating pad watching your show. Joan is looking very spiffy in her apron, I MUST say!!

Yes!!! I was just going to comment on this. She is always beautiful but today she is literally glowing . Ahh to be this stunning ❤
The amount of respect I have for my foremothers and those women who came before us who kept the home fires burning is not able to be measured.
Bailey! You probably won't see this but thank you for posting! You make going through the day to day more tolerable and being able to listen to you while I'm busy makes things go by so much smoother. Thank you for all you do!

If enough of us comment on this comment she will see it
I’m loving the consistency . Bailey never ceases to amaze me ❤
You know whats funny? In middle school during summer school our “computer” teacher actually taught us how to fill out a w2, i9 and how to start a business entity.
Mind you that was early 90’s.
Thank you Bailey for all you do for us on the channel! 💋
My senior year history teacher taught the entire how to fill out a w2. Including assigned a budget project where I'm the scenario, the student is "married" with two "kids". Including they have been working 10 years in a chosen career so we made a budget based on all that
@@rosa3299 thats amazing. We really do need this taught in schools. Many youths who go out into the world dont have any idea taxes/medicare/ss is taken from their checks. Or how to fill out any types of federal paperwork
@@Cloudy_SkieZ1 I was lucky. We did one in 8th grade for a career prep class that was mandatory for all 8th graders. Then in my senior my history teacher assigned all seniors the budget project that I explained. I also had a personal finance class that taught the basics of finance.
I was lucky to have teacher that willing taught budgeting and that my school had a class all about finance.
If I hadn't has the opportunities in senior I don't think I would even remember how to fill out a w2 form. Because that mandatory class was so long ago
Class of 1991 here
These skills are so underrated! When I was a resident assistant I had so many freshman knocking on my door to ask how to do laundry, how to cash a check and even a couple asking how to fill out a check.
Does everyone see the 'universe is unlicensed' thing on the video? I'm sure it was just a small mistake. They will probably take it down and reupload when they find out. Anyways thank you so much Bailey for this amazing video as always. ♥♥
yeah i see it too
I thought I was going crazy :o glad ya'll saw it too

I literally came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed this XD

I am shocked 😳 I am in my late 40’s all this time I really thought it was a real woman an person thank you for the story.
Another cool thing is that I'm pretty sure this is the same company that printed patterns on their flour sacks bc some families were making dresses out of them
My grandmother had two daughters and would remove stitches and remake their dresses for school from the flour sacks. She said that during the struggle of the dust bowl people assumed they were still wealthy ranchers because the girls had so many nice dresses. They had two, one for Sunday one for school, both made from sewing and redesigning the same flour sacks.
I can’t imagine, my sewing skills are hysterically comical.

At the risk of dating myself, I had home economics in high school. There was actually an exra caricular organization called FHA (future homemakers of America). They gave out an award each year for Future Homemaker of the year. How do I know? Because I actually won this award my senior year.
Haha!! I also had home ec. I failed. I hated that class
I had home economics but never did we have an award thing. If we passed...that was an award lol 😆. It was literally my favorite class and I made all A's
They need to bring it back. So glad I had Home Ec in high school
You must be 50 to 60. I know because I'm older than that. I had home ec. classes. I made a pair of pants.
Yes!!! I loved home ec and the FHA! Such fun times with fun people back then. Thank you for reminding me of all that.
I was double catfished because the no-bake cookie recipe that I thought was my moms original recipe my entire childhood was just from a betty crocker cookbook
The chocolate oatmeal ones? We called them raggedy Robins. I only found out they're called no bake cookies when my best friend brought me some of "her moms special no bake cookies"... lol
Okay but I have to say this, Bailey looks especially beautiful in this video, I can’t stop looking 😩💜
I’ve been watching her for a couple years and I feel like every video she looks even more pretty and I hate her for it
GORGEOUS!!! Although to be fair, with that laid back swagger, I think she'd probably look great in literally anything ha
Right?! I love her hair!
@@emilyeholley truth!
It’s so Stepford Wife and Dita Von Teese, she looks gorgeous
Funny thing about the cake mixes: it's true that when they first came out, they only required you to add water. But housewives at the time complained that they were actually too easy to make and felt guilty that it was so low effort, so they changed it so that now it requires an egg as well. Lol
Valid complaints if you ask me!!
Wow. As someone who doesn't bake well, I wish they'd kept the old cake mix!

In Sweden we have hemkunskap (home knowledge) and everyone has it during a few years where you learn about everything from laundry to cooking food and how to be climate smart. It was most people's favorite class from what I remember haha, ly bailey:)
🌹🌹🌹Did males take the class, as well as, females? I think that would be great. I think everyone ought to take a home economics class! I think it's great it included laundry too. I don't think I've known any people who could do laundry very well. All I did was use LOGIC, and it worked. Many of the people I've known could completely ruin clothes and linens FAST! Haha!🌹🌹🌹
@@roseannes6761 hahah yeah i get that, but yes there was both guys and girls and everything in between. And it was obligatory and you got grade for it. Btw there was also more in the class, like how to do the dishes and how to structure your economy :))

Thanks to Betty crocker and other brands that have easily available cake mixes, I was able to grow up with having a handmade birthday cake every year by my mother, she would make the frosting by scratch and then use the cake mix box for the cake. And this inspired me to learn how to bake from scratch and continue cake decorating like my mom did and now I've made a career out of it. So this was a very interesting video to listen to because I wouldn't be who I am today had I not have cakes handmade for my birthday. I'm very interested to know about Marjorie and what she did after she left Betty crocker, I'm on a car trip so I may have misunderstood but I believe you said she made her own business after leaving Betty crocker. What business was this how well did it go. I would love any kind of feedback you can give me about this!💜
Me too so much better the store bought cakes -My girls always wanted me to make their birthday cakes and so I did with pleasure 🎉
My dad just passed away and your stories make me feel snuggled. Thanks as always Bailey ❤
awe... hang in there. It gets better over time. 💔
Awe Gabriella, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you warm hugs! ❤️ hope you take time to do something that will bring a smile to your face.

Love the dark history series!! Also I really like when you sometimes do episodes that are a little less dark like this one :) super easy to listen to & doesn’t put me in a bad headspace, but still with the subtle undertone of “fight the power” 👌
My mom's main cookbook was the Betty Crocker Picture Cookbook from the early 60's (she got when she was married in '63). It was a great recipe book and she still has it!
I have my Grandma's Betty Crocker Cookbook. It's my go to cookbook to this day. Grandma was married in the early 1920's. Not sure when she got the cookbook.
I have my mom’s old one and the newer on com like the ‘80s😜
New one from 1980s
I got my Betty Crocker cookbook from my mom. The red checkered plaid.
I LOVE how you made your hair and makeup to match the vibe of Betty Crocker. I love you and your videos 💕💕💕
I took Home Ec and I still do all the things I learned. I even sewed all my kids Halloween costumes. I even started a boutique of girls dresses and traveled my state for a while. Working from home is so underrated.

The Depression Cake is also known as a Wacky Cake. When making the Wacky Cake if you remove 2 Tblsps of flour and add an additional 2 Tblsps of Cocoa (I use Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa) your cake will come out super moist and very dark chocolatey. My family has been making this cake recipe since the Great Depression. There was also a white cake recipe known as a lightening cake that has no flavoring in it yet comes out tasting fabulous. Both of these cakes can be made into layers , or Bundt cake.
I, too, would love these recipes.
Recipe please, You know we ❤ to try new to us things n it sounds so 😋 yummy😍❗
Following for update
I'm not sure if this is correct but it's what I found when searching:
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup water
Directions:
1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2) Sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt into an 8x8-inch ungreased cake pan. Make 3 depressions in the flour mixture. Pour oil into one well, vinegar into second, and vanilla into third well. Pour water over all, then stir with a fork until well blended.
3) Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
Yes that's the recipe. When you sift your flour remove 2 Tablespoons. Then for your Cocoa I use Hershey Special Dark add 1 additional Tbls if making an 8x8 or 2 if you double to make a 13x9. I have made this cake even in the Backcountry wilderness in cast iron pans on a campfire but you need to adjust the recipe for altitude. It's a great recipe and my family has been making it for generations.
I remember when I found out that “making a cake from scratch” didn’t mean making it at home using Betty Crocker…it wasn’t that long ago either. Like when people asked me if I made my Betty Crocker cake from scratch I’d say “yeah, can’t buy this” bc I thought they were talking about the cake being already made when I bought it! Listen, I added egg, milk and butter or whatever, dirtied pans and mixed things together so that ish felt like real “baking from scratch” to me 😭
You know you CAN buy ready-to-eat cakes that already are baked and iced from the grocery store 😂
If there are dishes! It's from scratch!
@@amandavhb1630 that’s what I’m saying! You’re 100% right, Amanda 🥲🫶🏻
Girl, so did I! Same with pumpkin pie!! Lol
Yeah, we made it at home so...
honey, it was your cake! you made from scratch: you added the ingredients & did the mixing and place it in the oven to bake+ it's your cake from scratch!
The depression cakes aren't bad. You don't really taste the vinegar it's like a Red Velvet cake, which also has vinegar in it. The vinegar gives it a slight tangy flavor that you wouldn't expect to work but it does.
yes I have a friend that serves red velvet cake ( his great g mothers recipe) in his sandwich shop. People love it!
I put vinegar in my pie crust. You don’t taste it, the crust is very flaky.
I was a adverting/marketing major in college & that’s where I learned the truth about Betty Crocker. My whole world was turned upside down 😂 the tactics used to market to ppl are incredible.
Who has time to wait for a cake to bake when we're NEEDING to stress eat? Lick the spoon and bowl! Thank you for sharing that, Bailey! Now I don't feel guilty for doing the same thing.
Me neither 🤣😭
That depression cake is legit the BEST chocolate cake ever!! My mom makes it and it is everyone's favorite! Should definitely try it its worth it!
I have to admit, _this_ look, after so many years of loving your videos, was the one that made me go 'oooooooohh' a little longer 😂💖

Yep. Same. There's just something about that classic, vintage hair and makeup. It's *chef's kiss*

I always thought it was weird that no one noticed she didn’t age. She actually got younger overall. Lol She was there for grandparents to grandchildren and never aged a day!
I love baking and really appreciate my Home-Ec classes. I also feel like this story could be a Netflix series that could also help with practical things like the Depression Cake ( my Mom and I still uses a similar recipe for when we run out of eggs and milk) . It gives me Mad Men vibes and I am here for it😊
Love that I'm always early on your YT video. ❤️ As a person whose not from the US, these kinds of videos are very interesting for me and I really find it so informative. US history is freaking wild!!
I'm not from the US either. I do however live on the same northern continent as America. America's history is wild, and America's, right this minute, is wild too.
Bailey! Again, YOU are an incredible storyteller. From Killers to Betty all in the same original style. Your timing, dramatics, gestures, language - all of it - have all of the best elements of compelling storytelling -and you can capture the details that fascinate in your narrative. We appreciate it.
I took three years of Home Ec in High School mainly to get out of taking other stuff. I actually learned a lot. I graduated in the dark ages (1968) so it was just girls. I too have eaten frosting out of the can 😂Thanks for being so honest! I learn a lot from your videos!
You're def my escape from the troubles in my life.. Even if it's only momentarily lol Thanks for the constant uploads! We appreciate you and all your hard work!
The vinegar works really well and is used in vegan cakes and such. Vinegar and baking soda are used for raising the cake like eggs do in baked goods.
I made a yummy vegan chocolate cake.
I have a vintage Betty Crocker cookbook that used to belong to my mother. She gifted it to me in the 80s and it's one of my few sentimental treasures from her. I feel like by the time I was born, everyone understood Betty Crocker was a concept rather than a person, but I didn't know it was initially a man's idea! I love this - lots of women writers used a masculine (or genderless) pen name to brand themselves, but this is the first time I learned of a man doing that!
I have never identified with Bailey more than when she talked about eating all that cake mix.
😂 same
I hate to hear they aren’t doing home ec classes anymore. It’s been almost 20 yrs since I was in high school and I will always remember my “life skills” class.
Same. I loved that class!
They still have the class..they just added ALOT more then cooking to it.
Class of 23 here, we do have it! 😊
I took it in 2012. It was cooking and sewing.
In 2004 I took, home economics, sewing 101, cooking 101, and I would have taken more but not enough kids signed up. It's how I discovered designers like Jeremy Scott and delicious cardamom cookies! Also learned to make a backpack!
Same 04 was my sophomore year.
That’s impressive. I took home ec, it was a requirement back in my time, and all I sewed was a really awful pair of stirrup pants…
I do not see well. Straight line? Nope…
My husband though.. he can sew lol
In 2004, I was birthed 😂

"It was the 20s an everything was frowned upon" 🙁 🤣🤣
I LOVE YOUR HAIR! And yes, as a teacher, school isn’t fun anymore. I can’t teach how I want to teach. We need to bring back vocational classes, because yeah, still don’t use Pi to the tenth power! Love your videos!!
You eating cake batter and half a thing of frosting makes me love you even more! The number of times I've had to berate myself into not doing that, is astounding.
Joan C in that apron is everything!!! I had home economics, but it was forced on us girls so that makes it a different vibe than cool. The brownie-cookie combo mix is awesome, even though I usually bake from scratch. Always love your vids girl.
