Very british the way he says things like....... "its not.... desperately unpleasant." Im saving that one the next time need some doublespeak for, " like, not as bad as carpet boiled in say, sulfer, it appears edible, but, its bad." Love this guys videos.
I quite like pennywort tea, but I can totally see how others may not. I'm a big fan of leafy greens such as chard, endives, kale, and spinach, as well as teas and herbal teas. Pennywort, to me, tastes like a blend of nettle, yerba mate, and a hint of spinach.
I feel like everything you say about the taste, here, is code for "it's like a really bad salad with sugar on it." Also: I think I'll take the phrase "let's have a sniff" for a run and see how that goes. It wouldn't be entirely unexpected by my peers to say something of the sort.
Many years ago I used to collect all the cans, separate aluminium and steel and take them down the scrap yard. I asked one a few years ago and they weren't interested. Needed paperwork etc to prove where it came from.
Yeah, most of that is to prevent people scrapping manhole covers, bronze war memorials and the lead off church roofs, but I imagine there have been cases of people stealing another scrapper's scrap, so regulation will be pretty tight. Reverse vending machines for empty cans were a thing a while back. I hoped that would take off, but I've never actually found one
Legitimate scrapyards will no longer pay for scrap in cash. Generally, you will have to have an account with the scrapyard, or, if it's a one-off trip, you will need to have photo i.d. with you, and your bank details - the money is paid straight into your account. This all stems from about 20 years ago, when certain pond life were stealing the brass and lead used on tombs and memorials in cemeteries and churchyards, including the rails that went around tombs, and weighing it in with unscrupulous scrap dealers. Some people took some cemetery items to a scrapyard a few miles away from my home, several years ago. To say the proprietors of the yard were unamused would be a gross underestimation. The Police were called. Eventually.
I just realized you pronounce the work khaki as car key, lol. Interesting. Also, when I shampoo my carpets and it comes time to dump the dirty water collection bin, it looks EXACTLY like that drink.
I love drinking pennywort but it's better made fresh than from a can I imagine. If there's too much sugar in it then you've ruined it lol. A few asian restaurants sell them but only a few actually make it fresh.
I drank this and oh god it is not my thing, almost like watered down sugar syrup. But I finished it because I hope i did something for my skin here drinking this much pennywort :D
@@AtomicShrimp As is any heavily sugared tea (Arizona, for example). Another common name for Pennywort is Gotu Kola. It's a favorite herb of mine, but I wouldn't make tea with it. Would rather include it in a tinctured formula for improving sleep, mood and mental acuity. Sugar just cancels out those benefits.

Came for the say ok to scammers video subscribed for the wierd stuff in cans
I actually tried this myself, I remember it as quite a pleasant thirst quencher.
That looked like you'd scooped a glass of water from a muddy ditch in the woods!

Yes. Nothing like having a large collection of herbs to mix and infuse for a pleasant drink.
You sir are a braver man than me

It's just how we say it in England.
that is probably the most unappetizingly colored drink you've ever done. "here, have some dirty pond water in a can"

As far as I can tell, asiatic pennywort is a basically unrelated plant to the European plant called pennywort
I thought that might be the case - it does look pretty different
It's called Gotu Kola. Scientific name is Centella Asiatica. Indian Pennywort is another name.
“Forest floor kind of thing.” Hilariously understated.

Forest floor. YUM DECAY
Penny for your warts?
Oh. Dear.
As awful as I know this was for you, I could not stop laughing throughout this video

Cool how just 30 videos ago people barely watched his videos and they were still awesome quality vids as they are nowadays
"Not particularly palatable" - while pouring more into the glass...
Gotu Kola / Centella Asiatica / Indian Pennywort
Hero.
So pretty much tea
I drank this and oh god it is not my thing, almost like watered down sugar syrup. But I finished it because I hope i did something for my skin here drinking this much pennywort :D
"Tastes like cold tea" because it IS cold tea. Not any weirder than any other green tea.
As far as I can tell, this is more like juice than tea

I honestly dont understand how you can bring yourself to eat / drink all this weird stuff lol
Um....ok....interesting
I was expecting a salad drink. Just as advertised :D
looks like mud water.
Health wise. It's good for you. Prevents Alzheimer's , helps grow your hair, improves your sleep,
allegedly.
