refrigerator gnome, why u no lady of refrigerator!?

[TheRekcabOfTheD]

right after alton mentioned to isolate the meat and mentioned "cross contamination" @ 4:03 a woman put raw meat into the top of the cart with other foods.

[trudoll]

can i really ask for a floor diagram ?

[guywithakatana]

@trudoll

I was really wondering that myself.

[livetolovesome182]

soap is soap

[livetolovesome182]

my fave way to eat hens are rub of oil/papricka/salt and bake for a while

[ChromaAurora]

Could anyone please tell me where Cornish hens are from? I mean, Cornwall is in England, but Cornish hens are unheard of there, at least the name is.

refrigerator gnome?



[26marmar]

Everybody type "gift" before youtube then press enter

[gamemeister27]

I realized I had some smoked oysters opened in the fridge and that they could go bad soon! Needless to say I finished this part eating them.

[Goldenrod636]

I wonder if the Gnome is related to the Travelocity Gnome.

[booksaregreat24]

"Cheerio moron"

Damn I love that gnome.

[lazymuthafukka]

"Cross contamination:" "AHHHHHHHHH"!!!!!!!

damn i love this show

[astrangeone]

Lol. Ow! I was wearing my headphones cranked up high when that happened. I wonder who the screamers are?  (Probably the behind-the-scenes people dressed in normal clothing...)

[ChickenFriedHuman]

i'm sure that if i asked my store manager for a floor diagram so that i could plan my route through the store, he would just look at me and ask me to leave.

and when did the roaming gnome become part of this show?

[loschain]

alton im sure all ur food comes out good eats. i wonder, do u cook for your wife?

[m0941752]

Actually, he might not. Most tv chefs don't often cook at home somewhat because they spend all day cooking and eating on the set(s) of their show(s).

[RainOnTheWindow]

My dad is a chef and he cooks at home.

[deraifu]

@loschain I always imagine his kids asking for breakfast or lunch then alton breaks into some tirade explaining the history of fried eggs...lol

[artdeco20]

Spatchcock FTW

[VoteNixon2008]

That thing about bacteria developing resistence is bullshit.

Exposing a population to tricholsan antiseptic will not propagate genes for resistance to say penicillin.

Anti-septics and antibiotics are distinct chemicals that act on different systems.

There's some remote chance that a total work-around of some common pathway could evolve but that discovery would probably win you a noble prize

[VoteNixon2008]

The cooling really doesn't matter. If you cook it you'll be fine. You just can't count on cooling all the way. The cooling itself only kills a little anyway. Things like trichonella worms are inactivated by a few days of refrigeration so if you go from fridge to cooking directly you'll be fine

[EtherealZephyr]

Haha, look closely at the blackboard.

Bacteria, viruses, parasites, and toxins (oh my!).

[jerrik96]

my favorite show ever

[CursedEyes24]

XD i just noticed this..... he had a fork that extents like a pointer or a car antenna would. Thats almost as cool as his like flippy cup for salt.

Ahh Alton and his gadgets.

[landmonarch]

:D They're for sale at borders or novelty stores- they're advertised as forks so you can steal other people's foods! :D

[arc2417]

Border's the book store? , ive been wondering where to get one of those....lol

[x3islove]

even if he puts his poultry on the bottom rack, the thousands of other people who shop every day most likely don't, so won't his food have a chance of being contaminated anyways?? i agree with the other person; bring your own cooler if you really want to be safe

[cursedchaos13]

Love the fed playing with the laser (Infrared Thermometer perhaps?

[DinoMartini]

Instead of counting to thirty, I sing happy birthday in my head.

[aljazeeeeera]

i dispatched the coq last night, hurhurhur.

[RhythmOfLogic]

Hahahaha! I love the Refrigerator Gnome!!! :)

[mrmorganmusic]

That whole thing about putting all meat on the bottom of your shopping cart seems absurdly anal retentive. I don't think I'll EVER do that.

[MoyraAngel]

The reason for that is a matter of cross contamination. You do not want your food covered in blood don't you??? Do not trust the package not to leak all over.

[FallenMeowBob]

Don't you mean protein laden liquid?

[Isolder74]

When it comes to spreading contamination does it really matter?

[gcuber]

Cross Contamination? AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[pedicabdr1ver]

i usually just bring a small cooler and put my meat/fish in that and then put the cooler wherever it'll fit in the cart.
