Hi everyone! I'm an American from the Northeast (New England). I want to create a watering hole for people who want to discuss, learn and teach about history through RUclips videos which you guys recommend to me through the comment section or over on Discord. Let's be respectful but, just as importantly, not be afraid to question any and everything about historical records in order to give us the most accurate representation of the history of our species and of our planet!
Having a diverse perspective is crucial to what I want to achieve here so please don't hold back! I want to learn about all I can! Keep recommending and PLEAESE join my Discord :) ( / discord )

Connor, chickens have been regulary innoculated against salmonella for many years in the UK and Europe so Salmonella is much less prevalent now. Also our chickens are housed in far better conditions. The conditions caged birds are housed in in the US are considered shocking to most in the UK. The pate is a reference to the forced feeding of geese to make fois gras by making the livers grow unaturally large. This, together with veal, is considered by many to be a "cruel" food.
But both veal and foie gras are so tasty...
, fun fact, veal crates are banned in the UK and EU, not so in the USA.
And the production of foi gras is banned in the UK and 22 other EU countries.
Wiener Schnitzel is veal (original)
@@arnodobler1096 yes, but the veal is not from calves kept in veal crates. It's just young cows - like lamb is young sheep, and chickens are young hens.
@@arnodobler1096
In Germany and Austria you can get "Wiener Schnitzel vom Kalb" (the original one, veal) and "Wiener Scnitzel vom Schwein" (pork).
1:29 I always find it funny when Americans get upset with the concept of eating haggis or black pudding but then go out and happily and blindly eat weenies and turkey twizzlers, etc.
The UK and Europe stop chickens from getting sick in the first place.
Regulations surrounding chicken husbandry in the EU are different. You can't wash your eggs so you want the sanitary conditions to be as good as possible because selling dirty eggs are almost impossible. Also chickens in EU have to be vaccinated for Salmonella. All this makes clorinated baths not needed.
That's not why the chlorine baths are used in USA
Never heard of Little Debbie in the UK. We have Cadburys mini rolls, they're unlikely to kill you or cause ADHD.
Hasn't she got a famous big sister (big Debbie) that lives in Dallas?
@@Dave.Thatcher1 Didn't she make a film?
Did Debbie Do Dallas?
@@bycromwellshelmet2369 probably not all of it.
Sincere apols in advance for my possibly heavy-handed response; public reaction to any mention of ADHD can be rather dismaying. No food _causes_ ADHD, obvs as it's a genetically-driven, neurodivergent condition.😬 The name's misleading as many of us with ADHD aren't hyperactive _at all,_ nor are we unable to pay attention - just unable to *_regulate_* it - we're either sluggishly unengaged or hyper-focused for hours when a new topic sparks neural activity. Attention is the least of our daily challenges, tbh - it's our hidden symptoms which are effing hard, but rarely get any public attention. Apols again - your comment is clearly lighthearted - nerve hit. 🥴
For the record, we do have most of these foods and drinks shown in the video in the EU, but the banned chemicals are removed, hence why some foods can taste different in Europe than in the US.
It's not how sausage is made that puts people off eating it - it's how HOTDOGS are made, and more specifically that they consist of pink slime.
Ear'oles, eye'oles and arse'oles.
Well, Mountain Dew isn't actually banned in Norway, same with Skittles.
I guess they are just imported from the UK or something, instead of the US.
We also have that "m" chocolate that Sweden has, but you can still find m&m's here as well, so I don't know what that's all about.
It's the same here in Sweden. I saw all 3 items on my last grocery shopping but the logo for m&m's is different with capital Ms instead, M&M.
@@LottisCorner Interesting, I don’t remember how the logo looked, I’ll have to check tomorrow!
Same in Finland.
There is more to the chlorine thing. Both US and UK agree birds have to be chilled quickly after killing. Because the US do it in cold water baths, they have to put stuff in the water to prevent contamination spreading from a bad bird to the rest, yup chlorine. The other way is to cold air chill them, which prevents bird to bird contamination, but is a lot more expensive.
Chickens, Europe including UK farmers put more focus on keeping chickens in a cleaner environment when rearing and handling. That's the theory. Plus chickens are vaccinated against salmonella I believe.
See what’s ingredients are in US Big Mac and fries compared to the uk version. What is added to the US offering is totally unnecessary.
Mostly for hygiene reasons, I think that pork often goes off very quickly in the desert so if you were to eat pork you would probably get lots of parasites and stuff in your system because the hygiene back then was very very poor so it became taboo.
And pigs are omnivores
According to recent studies, tap water in New England contains huge amounts of Dihydrogen Monoxide, Hydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide and Hydric Acid. Yikes! :)
Pate, I believe they're referring to 'foie gras', forced feeding goose's to the point where suffer in pain
Geese 🤦🤷
@@steddie4514 I know. I just couldn't be @rsed to edit my comment 😄 My best friend is a Gosling (surname) so I should know better
Just a quick search on Wikipedia what might be the problem with azodicarbonamid
"In a 1999 report, the World Health Organization has linked exposure to azodicarbonamide at workplaces where it is manufactured or handled in raw form to "respiratory issues, allergies and asthma". "
There’s a RUclips channel that does American and British food comparisons (Dominoes, McDonald’s, Burger King etc) they compare portion sizes and availability as well as ingredients. Turns out our fast food is bit healthier than America in some aspects such as our pizza base at Dominoes contains just flour, water, yeast, salt and oil. American Dominoes has a whole load of other stuff. Even bread sold at Walmart or Trader Joe’s etc has more ingredients than our Warburton’s bread, store brand and other iconic bread manufacturers. I can’t comment on In ‘n’ out, Wendy’s, Chik-fil-A and Taco Bell as we’re only just getting them nationwide. (They’ve been relegated to places near the London area before they are rolled out nationally.) we have Five guys near where I live and I believe Popeyes are now open South England wide if not UK wide.
I may be wrong but I think I was told at school, many years ago now, that it was not possible to keep pork fresh in hot climates, such as Israel and countries where Islam is practiced, back in the day and was therefore regarded as 'unclean'. Pork in particular can contain a lot of parasites .
Marabou Ms are amazing and they have no coloring, i think, they are brown as chocolate is. Marabou is a swedish company, it was formed in Sweden by a norwegian. In Norway the same norwegian had already set up their own candy company.
Doing another supply chain thing here, but a lot of food additives in the US are added to workaround the way US food supply chains are designed. The US, since Ford, has almost religiously followed the ‘scientific management’ style of industrial production. That style emphasises economies of scale at individual plants: a few big plants that are highly specialised. The trouble with that for food is that the US is big and so products need to move long distances from those plants to consumers. This requires more preservatives, emulsifiers, texture treatments, and colorants to make the product be ‘consumer ready’ once it gets on the shelves. This has been exacerbated by the ‘omnibus bill’/pork barrel style of legislation the US has and the frequent election cycles (politicians are incentivised to create policies that encourage big, specialised employers in their constituencies). This has frustrated efforts to move away from hub and spoke supply chains.
Especially since the Flixborough disaster in the UK in the 1970s, much of the rest of the world has shifted to decentralised, just-in-time supply chain models that mean shorter lead times. This has been a big driver behind the development of the EU single market.
A quick check on the diffetent food agencies in the US will shock and annoy anyone , its an obviously flawed inadequate system , but hey you wanted less regulation and trump gave you it .... i couldnt resist that last bit apologies lol
It's bad enough putting toxic chemical additives into products like Skittles just to enhance the way it looks, but at least Skittles are multi-coloured, so the additives will have _some_ visible effect (by increasing colour intensity). However, putting the same chemicals into a brown chocolate swiss roll is just sheer stupidity. Chocolate is ALREADY brown FFS! What are they trying to do? Get the chocolate to glow in the dark or something? Those Little Debbie rolls looked the same as any other chocolate roll, so the entire colour additive exercise was a harmful and pointless waste of time.
I completely agree with those Swiss Rolls. Even if the color would be slightly different, I don't think many would even notice. It's just not worth the risk.
Most of these foods aren't banned in Europe - just the American versions of them.
Most Kellogs products are sold here, but they don't contain the same GMOs as in the states.
Same can be said for most American foodstuffs ( they just change the ingredients to comply with our food regulations.
I loved your face everytime they mentioned another type of food from the US banned overseas lol
10:02 The pork consumption section might also refer to things like pork gelatin or other pork products like rendered fat that have been added to _other_ processed foods - even things you wouldn't necessarily suspect, like desserts, tinned soups, baked goods, this list goes on.
I don't think it necessarily means just things like sausages and bacon! 😁🐷
Raw pork can contain Trichinella bacteria which is harmful to humans but not pigs, so that could be a reason it's banned.
Ironically Skittles were originally British! I presume as usual, ours are now produced differently, at least these days compared to back in the seventies? Perhaps Hershey's chocolate substitute and Mountain Dew engine coolant are similar, both are available here but much changed and not particularly popular. And yes, I have tried original US versions.
There are natural coloring that can be used to dye those products. But I guess the artificial ones are a few Cents cheaper, so as long as they are allowed, companies will use them instead.
Think the UK stamped out artificial colourings in the late 90's, maybe early 2000's. I remember a big fuss about 'E' numbers when I was a youngster. I also vaguely remember blue Smarties getting a bad rap as the 'E' number used for that was one of the worst. Ribena took a bit of the brunt as well.
I remember as a kid eating too many skittles (in UK during the 80s) and made myself ill. Never ate them since.
In the UK pretty much all our chickens are free range, and i mean proper free range, also we have high standards in farming and animal husbandry, we even give salmonella inoculations to chickens. No chlorine bath for eggs and chicken, ever wondered why USA eggs in grocery stores require refrigeration? Its because of the chlorine bath, which over cleans the natural bacterial barrier that can allow eggs no need for refiguration. It doesn't mean we don't clean them once out of the chicken, but we make sure we don't destroy that natural barrier.
How many Brits still know or have been told about the BSE/Mad Cow disease? It changed many people's thoughts and habits about food supply from farm to fork. Trouble is it's pricey.
The food rules in Leviticus were written in days without cold storage. Food couldn't be kept long without salting or drying.
Which foods are famously known for causing illness in hot weather? Pork, shrimp and crustaceans.
Fish was not caught on the sabbath, so if you were eating fish at the weekend, it was Friday's fish.
These rules, like most laws back in the day, were just common sense wrapped up in mumbo jumbo.
As with The Ten Commandments, great advice masquerading as 'The Voice of God'.
Great advice all the same.
Pork spoils quickly. In contrast to game and beef, which first has to hang out before it is processed.
You can eat organic meat too.
I buy and eat less meat but healthy one, because of price. And most of time, better quality and taste...
Would be my suggestion as well for Americans who are concerned with Ractopamine (and probably other crap) in pork. Organic pork should be free of it.
Mountain Dew, made from water straight from the cooling plant of the local nuclear power station..😆
😅😅😅😅😅
6:56 yeah, reverse it. Yoga mat ingredients should not be in your bread lad. Flour, yeast, water and salt.... That's bread. No yoga mat needed
A lot of these are also banned here in Canada or they have different ingredients here.
From what I understand muslims don’t eat pork because it’s considered a dirty animal because it lays around in its own waste.
It still astounds me that Americans still eat rare hamburgers after a bunch of people died from ecoli poisoning. You can’t get rare burgers here in Canada after that happened.
Hi Connor, 03:38, I'm not sure you have understood about taste, the colour something is will (in most people) affect how the perceive its taste, and I'm not sure if it matters if its perceived or actual as taste is only how you 'observe' it.
Pork and Beef have a Growth Hormone added to speed Growth to get to a saleable size
I agree with you on the sausage front.
Bloody hell, those workers in the chlorine bath factories aren't wearing breathing equipment?! 13:47 🥴
Quite like steak tartare, providing it's been properly tested, if a bit pricey. The German version using pork (Mett) is also pretty good along with a few pints.
You can buy Coca-Cola in Cuba, my dad and stepfamily live in Camagüey and they always mix their rum with it.
The standards in Germany are high enough that no one worries about eating tartar or mett (raw minced pork).
Just be yourself, i love your curious mind. 💟 from scotland
A lot of countries and cultures dont eat pork because pigs are known to be scavengers and can carry diseases. In westernised countries with (mostly) regulated farming butchering and marketing practices this is no longer the cases but the religious/cultural restriction still remains.
You can get tapeworms from undercooked pork.
Pork goes off very quickly in hot weather. So safer not to eat in hot countries if you want to avoid being ill. What better way to stop getting ill than to include it as a religious edict….
67 pounds (30.5kg) / year = 1.3 pounds (590 grams) / week.
This Kiwi eats that weekly amount over the space of six weeks. I barely eat the stuff. Steak or venison or chicken for me, thanks.
Simple commonsense should keep the average person free of Mountain Dew.
Connor. Totally with you on Chemophobia. Sometime hearing the full name for any chemical makes a layman uncomfortable.
God does not prohibit the eating of pork. This is done by people who misunderstand his words.
From what I heard it was because pork was difficult to preserve!
Salmonella is not a thing here. I asked my 11 year old (12 in 2 days) what salmonella was.... He has never heard of it😂
Also sausages over here are a completely different thing from yours
Cause you asked; Dunno if they’re banned (wouldn’t be surprised tho) but I‘ve never seen little Debby swiss rolls here in Switzerland XD
In a nutshell...
> European Food Standards: Prove it is safe
> US Food Standards: Prove that it isn't
Marabou Chocolate is amazing...... pick some up next time you are in Ikea...
Maybe when people said you'd be grossed out by how sausage is made, they meant blood sausage? Or something similar.
Just the disgusting muck sold in supermarkets. Especially in US where all meat products are disgustingly reared.
Britain has the highest standards of livestock welfare in the world. The U.S has some of the worst.
We got Pepe Le Pew in the UK xoxox
I like Polish sausages the most.
Americans are accustomed to “colorful,” bright foods from an early age. I (and most Europeans) know the natural colors, and the unnatural scares us off because it just looks "poisonous"!
I'm a patriotic American. I take a broad-spectrum General Additive supplement every morning.
Toast?
Reason Muslims dont eat pork is because it is written.😂. It actually made sense centuries ago because pork went bad pretty quick in their climate and was linked to disease. Same goes for other foods like certain seafoods etc. Circumcision was a matter of hygiene, these days useles for those with basic hygiene, back then it was not a bad idea. The washing before praying is also a matter of hygiene and benificial in general back then. A lot of these things made perfect sense and actually have nothing to do with religion but common sense of people recogninsing a patern, identifying a possible cause and take precautions... ....... yet now ofcourse it is written, and they gotta keep it up.
7:25 in the time when the rules for following religions in the middle east were put into writing, they didn't have access to refrigirators (obviously). Since pork is genetically pretty close to humans, it is for this meat more easy to have serious negative consequences for humans if consumed. It is therefor not a bad idea to not eat pork if you don't have a way to store it properly. In the 21st century it obviously has no basis in a modern society.
Only Throwback Mountain Dew is the real thing. Sugar not artificial sweetener.
Pigs would have at one time foraged over middens - where they probably ate human faeces.
You should watch how black pudding and haggis is mate
honestly is there a good video because they dont actually use the traditional methods anymore and most videos show the kinda gross traditional versions of these foods. Also americans get put off if you show them whats in food haha when if they just ate it theyd realise that it just taste like a type of sausage. The usa has black pudding too in asian and spanish supermarkets/resturants. In spanish areas theres morcilla which is just black pudding really and the korean name for it is sundae. they use different spices etc but its the same shit.
@@WookieWarriorz are u wanting a good haggis or BP video il get the one I seem and put a link in
@@WookieWarriorz ruclips.net/video/eBpBP7NT0rs/видео.htmlsi=vYSnGMB4_-UqG9Tl haggis
You might not consume that much pork in a year mate, but have you seen the size of some Americans? There are millions of people picking up the slack.
Skittles are not at all banned in Sweden. Saw some at the store yesterday.
Those "product xyz is banned in ..." headlines are often misleading. Most of the times just some ingredients are banned, but the product can be sold with an adapted recipe.
They're probably the British ones as they originated here in the seventies. We just make them without the crap in that the Americans have?
Muslims dont eat pig/pork because they say its dirty... Well not more dirty as the sect itself or the fact that this bs comes from 100's of years ago (and by then a true statement).
Those days a town had one main"street" and it was used as sink, shithouse etc... And pigs ate from it, though today pigs are feed like cows, chickens etc. and thats still their "reason".
Love you Connor
Sthlm Swe
It makes the yoga mat soft and bouncy and so too the bread so it stay softer and bouncy longer on the shelf. Pork was dangerous to eat in the old days as it keeps badly and easier brought sickness but they also considered pigs dirtier animals due to the way they live and both Muslims and Hebrews are religions that takes cleanliness very serious as a religious practice. You can just use safe dyes why take the chance
Transporting meat and eggs over such long distances makes zero sense.🤷♂️
British pork is infinitely better than US pork. You would love our bacon.
Dry cured smoked back bacon is the best. Or better still, the really long strips of bacon with both back and the long streaky tail that doubles back round on itself.
All our meat is far superior due to our stricter livestock welfare laws.
American cuisine 🤔🙄😲
The video isn't scientific and countries don't always take rational decisions concerning food regulation. The best example is the GMO ban in Europe, which isn't based on Science but ideology. You are right to be critical.
And bans work in both ways. In the USA Kinder surprises are banned because some kids died but in the EU it is fine to sell it.
American bread would be classed as a CAKE in the UK because of the amount of sugar it contains. (3 times the amount) !!
Pork is seen as UNCLEAN because pigs have cloven hooves and do not ruminate.
In Europe farmers have to look after their livestock . They are inoculated, fed better and kept in better conditions than in the USA.
SOUNDS LIKE YOUR " CONDITION" MAY BE LNKED TO THE AMOUT OF THE STUFF IN THIS VIDEO THAT YOU CONSUME ON A DAILY BASIS !!
pepe le pew, how do i put this ???............French.......
Amore amore ❤️
I know you say sorry a lot, but why would you apoligize for your "Americaness"? You're from a country that brought the world a lot and despite it's black pages throughout history, it's a country to be very proud of.
😮 Connor ... How did you get to 30 and not know about pork ?! Back in the day, ovens were not as reliable for heating and cooking meats suffuciently to always destroy the tape worm larvae which can be found within pork meats. Therefore the larvae could be ingested and grow inside the bodies of anyone who ate the pork. If cooked thoroughly at sufficiently high cooking temperatures, the tapeworm larvae is destroyed thus preventing it from infesting people.
Hence the pork / pig ban by the ancient Jews who still, in this present day, continue the once _much-needed_ tradition, (even though modern cooking methods and high, 'standardised' temperatures much reduce the chances of tapeworm infestation).
I don't actually like pork (though I do like back bacon!) so, though I'm not Jewish,
I don't eat pork 🐷either.
But then, I really only like beef🐮 and chicken🐔, (lamb's okay🐑, but I like it the least😟!!). 🏴❤🖖
You can look it up so otters do
Pork goes off quick in the heat, it rots to fast to be safely eaten.
We need to invent some kind of device that can keep food cool.
Google mrm
Too many stops.Gave up on it.

Don't worry, we ALL know that now you know it's literally killing Americans slowly, you will STILL eat that crap regardless. Your American, you can't help it it's just the lifetime indoctrination regarding food, consume consume consume.
Of course, you're not going to use the knowledge in the video to make changes to your diet and be more mindful what you eat but that's OK we still love you.
We have American candy shops in my country, and I tried what you call soda and nearly boked at how disgusting it was. I wouldn't touch any American food even organic because of the gmo's, you can't trust a single food product and that's quite scary.
At this point America is the test laboratory of the world, you are the case study, your food is killing you slowly and you all still lap it up, that's just terrifying to think about literal 300million+ lab rats.
Still love you though.
The pig was thought to be dirty . That's why religions do not have it .
The people pushing the ‘big scary word’ = bad thing annoy me. Everything is chemicals, and the formal names of even common natural cooking ingredients would terrify most people. Not to mention, as the saying goes, ‘the dose is the poison’. Even water has a lethal dose. That said, some things have no safe dose, or no practical one for consumer foods.
Disney ruined Star Wars.
