    Might have gone a bit overboard with that one, really curious what you guys think of the video. Do you care more for stories or for recipes? Or both? Also, what is the best color of froot loops? I think they need to bring back blue

      As a fellow german, I have to ask, aren't the mid eighteenhundreds actually around the year 1750? I'm not really sure though. In germany the 18th century would be from 1701 to 1800.
      Just to make sure, you don't get me wrong. I really love the content. Great videos, great host, in deep coverage. Maybe this one isn't the right one for me, as you mentioned in your final words. Cereals are just no part of my usual morning routine. So many other videos of yours opened up a whole new perspective of cuisine to me though. Thank you very much. If you don't sub over here, where else would you? Lovin' it, keep goin' on.

  • @freundlichermensch7540
    @freundlichermensch7540 4 года назад +40

    I studied food science and back in the days we made erdnussflips (peanut butter version of Cheetos(really popular in Germany)) in the university but now i am curious since the same type of machine is used for those and fruit loops, how "fruity" fruit loops would turn out. The machine used is called an extruder, which works with pressure difference, inside the machine you have high pressure and heat (125°C+) and when the food comes out the water inside the food will vaporize, which expanded the mixture and everything becomes puffy. All sorts of puffy cereals, snacks or even bread is made with those type of machines. That said, for most applications the seasoning is after this step, such as Cheetos or Erdnussflips, because the flavor also often vaporize. You will often see those type of foods are quite dull, its more about the texture rather than the actual flavor.
    So my educated guess would be that "real" fruit loops would be quite blend, and that you won't really feel the fruit taste and at the same time, the cost would be pretty high. Fruits are obviously way more expensive than corn flour. Which is I guess one of the reasons we don't really see such stuff. And out of Marketing perspective you want to have visible whole fruits, rather than fruit puree, when you embrace the healthy aspect. A combination of those aspects will be the reason why we don't see "real" fruit loops.
    That said I could ask a friend of mine, who might or might not work in a cereal factory, why we don't see fruity fruit loops.

    • @freundlichermensch7540
      @freundlichermensch7540 4 года назад +4

      @stockart whiteman They use a combination of a solution with some powder, so that you don't get sticky/fatty fingers, obviously you will still have some residue, but same goes for other snacks. Generally speaking, you don't want to use fatty powders, because they will cause oxidation of the fat, which leads to an unpleasant flavor.
      The Peanut butter flavor is the dominant one here in germany, you can also find other flavors, Barbecue, Curry or cheese, however we still refer them as Erdnussflip (Peanut thingy).
      I never thought that those peanut butter Cheetos would be specific for Germany, until I had an American roommate. For a party I got some snacks, and he saw those peanut things, he thought those are off colored Cheetos, he tried them and disliked them. Just because he was expecting different, he tried them later again and liked them.
      In Eastern Europe, slightly salty cheetos are popular, so no other flavor, just some salt. I had a Ukrainian girlfriend who really loved them.

    Thanks for this, very well researched history segment. One addition to the semi-recent marketing: When I was a child the absolute most important thing about a box of cereal was the toy hidden in the box. It seems to have gone away about 20 or so years ago. I'm guessing it was outlawed as a choking hazard.

    • @umcaraqualquer3640

      It, indeed, was outlawed due to that. In cartoons nowadays, it's not hard to find character's choking on the toys inside the cereal box.

    Great history on cereal. You forgot to mention C.W. Post. He worked for the Kellogg brother and stole their idea (calling it Grape Nuts due to its fruity aroma) since John Harvey only wanted his cereal to be used as a health remedy for upset stomachs and not for profit. William wanted to go public but couldn't get his brother's permission so C.W. Post took the idea and founded Postum Cereal Co.

Mostly bought Cheerios, which seem more healthy. I know adults to this day are "addicts" to their sugary cereal. Used to get an ad for "Keto Sugary cereal". No idea what was in it, beans and monkfruit sweeterner maybe? I can't believe you did all that.
