[freitasex]

@haryzlee

Lol, no!

[apmdetroit]

My mom is making it tonight yum

[freitasex]

@apmdetroit

Excellent :)

[orlaskillful]

your recipes look delicious but you should try substitute some ingredients. most of your ingredients are salt, butter cream, and if you try use healthier things you may gain views!

Michael,

I am sorry to tell you that Oreo died this morning just before I went to school. She was really acting weird and doing terrible last night and breathing awfully. When I woke up this morning at 6:30, we tried to wake her, but we could not and she was not breathing. So, we called the vet and he came over and listened to her heart and said that her heart had stopped beating and she was not breathing anymore. Then, we took her to the clinic to double-check and she is dead. We are very sad.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

Oh Grant, I am so sorry and you have my deepest sympathy.

Oreo was family and I will think of you and her often, especially this week.

Michael

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex Thanks. Oreo was always been a sweet cat. When I was 3, one day I found her food, and since I was only 3 years old, I thought it was candy and started eating it. My mom then was calling, "Grant, where are you"? Then she found me and said, "Don't eat cat food, you're not a cat, that'll make you sick". That's what she said to me. And when I was little, I loved the way her fluffy furry tail looked and I called it a Fau-Fau-Fau tail.

[Amtrakify]

I am making this tonight. I just made the chocolate bread pudding and the chocolate bread pudding is baking in the oven right now. It has been baking for 15 minutes and it has 15 more minutes. After it bakes, I'm going to make the sauce. My grandma and aunt Sara are here visiting my mom and I for dinner and dessert. I also made your chicken pot pie for dinner. The pot pie is baking right now with the pudding. I put the pie in 10 minutes after I put the pudding in.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

Wow you were very busy Grant!

I hope you like the choc bread pudding, to me it is just ok.

I really like the chicken pot pie.

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex The dinner and dessert was excellent, Michael. We ate all of it all in one night. What is your main food craving? I am now leaving with my mom to take Oreo into the vet. Oreo has not been having much energy lately and she has been acting funny and is getting old.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

I hope that Oreo is okay!

Hum, my main food craving?

I would say anything Italian with a tomato sauce, would be my #1

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex I hope so to. I love tomato sauce too. But, my main food cravings are chocolate and peanut butter. The vet is going to call at anytime now to tell us the results. He said that it did not look too good. So, If the results are negative, we are going to take her in today for an X-ray. She is getting very very old.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

Oh, Benson and I are hoping for good news from the Doctor!

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex The doctor just called and said that the results are negative so my mom is leaving now to take her in for an X ray and to do a lot of medical tests with her. He said it was going to be something neurological. Her symptoms have been:

1. She has been very lethargic and not running all over the backyard like she always does.

2. She has been showing confusion a lot like she does not know where she is.

3. She has been sleepwalking and chewing on anything she can get her hands on nonstop.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

Oh Grant, that sounds pretty bad, the chewing is bad too.

I just don't know what to say.

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex We just got back from the vet with her and this morning, she got her final examination and results.

The doctor said that she was diagnosed with a brain tumor.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

Oh, I am so sorry.

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex Sadly, She only has two more weeks left to live. The tumor is inoperable.

[freitasex]

@Amtrakify

That is bad news, I am sorry Grant.

[Amtrakify]

@freitasex Thank you for that. When she dies, we are going to be grieving for a few days. Then, we will be looking for a new cat. She is a sweet cat. Before I was born, back when my parents were still married, she would sit in my parents laps every night. She was born 5 months before I was. When I was born, she got very angry because I was getting all the attention. She started making messes in the house and scratched the walls. Then she started to get used to me and was nicer.

[WhatiThinkAboutit]

i really want to try this i am making regular bread pudding for the 1st time now =)

[freitasex]

@WhatiThinkAboutit

Thank you and I love regular bread pudding :)

[fezan84]

mouth watering....omg ;O

thanks for the video

[freitasex]

@fezan84

Aw shucks, thanks!

[wolfydan121]

wait, why did you boil cooked bacon in the milk? is that just an american thing?

[freitasex]

@wolfydan121

I wanted to flavor the sauce, it worked and flavored the sauce.

I did not care for it too much, I had one person that liked it.

It is not an american thing.

[wolfydan121]

@freitasex what did it taste like? next time vanilla, cinnamon or coffee would work well :) (coffee would make it a mocha! yummo!)

[freitasex]

@wolfydan121

The bacon flavor in the sauce was too bacony, I know that is not a word.

[wolfydan121]

@freitasex lol, thats what had me wondering :p why you would try to combine bacon with chocolate :p apparently chilli is nice with chocolate if youre looking for something different to try :)

[lovenacel]

:) thank you so much chief.. i try it using my old breads, very good....

[freitasex]

@lovenacel

Thanks!

[wherethebeef7]

that looks so fantastic!

[freitasex]

@wherethebeef7

Thanks!

[FoxyStoat89]

Salty & Sweet is the best combo! Could you do a recipe for chocolate pretzels? We dont have them pre packaged in the UK anymore :(

[freitasex]

@FoxyStoat89

Thank you for your request, and I will think about it :)

[jOsYiEbOy]

i have a request can you makes jerked anus meat

[freitasex]

@jOsYiEbOy

I don't need to make that, you have plenty, lol.

[TheRajKumary]

That looks amazing but I think my heart just failed while watching that hahaha!

Good job once again Mr.M

With lots of love , R.

[freitasex]

@TheRajKumary

Thank you very much!

[TheBigNegus]

You've lost control of your life

[freitasex]

@TheBigNegus

It is all the drugs!

[treemonisha2006]

OH MY GOD!!! THAT LOOKS SOOOOO GOOD!



[freitasex]

@treemonisha2006

Wow thank you!

[silverscreamgrl]

Holy cap that sounds like it would be super good (rich too, huh?)

[freitasex]

@silverscreamgrl

It is just about too rich to tell you the truth.

[TheInfamousThey]

@freitasex i think therealtalk617 was being sarcastic :) besides who coukd hate your videos? Your tutorials are simply amazing. 

[freitasex]

@TheInfamousThey

Thank you and I agree with you.

[gayle2020]

ALTHOUGH I'M ON WEIGHT WATCHERS RIGHT NOW AND BREAD PUDDING IS MY FAVORITE DESSERT, I STILL LOVE YOU FREITASEX !!!! MUAAAH. I can't trust myself to try this right now because I would eat the whole thing...LOL

[freitasex]

@gayle2020

My sister used to make a Weight Watchers Meatloaf that was really good!

[HALLSYSKITCHEN]

that looked so good dude.  thumbs up!!!

[freitasex]

@HALLSYSKITCHEN

Thank you my friend!

[TheCarltondry]

So unfair, I've just started a diet and Michael posted this the next day :-(

[freitasex]

@TheCarltondry

Sorry and I apologize :(

[TheRealtalk617]

Im starting to really dislike you =)

[freitasex]

@TheRealtalk617

I apologize :(

[paintball130]

Would you recommend adding nuts the pudding perhaps? :D just to make it that much yummier

[freitasex]

@paintball130

Yes, nuts sound great, thank you for the idea!

[mpedward2]

Ausome vid! I'm just alil confused? Why bacon?Just asking ? (You learn something new every day)=}

[freitasex]

@mpedward2

I thought it sounded good, but I was wrong :(

[suelectric]

I love this recipe!!! <3

[freitasex]

@suelectric

Thank you so much Sue!

[angelwings500]

Looks so good!! Chocolate lovers dream!!

[freitasex]

@angelwings500

Thanks!

[rhosteph]

It's an excellent day when I log into youtube, and discover a new video by you!! And one with chocolate? The only way it could be better is if I was there to enjoy that with you! That looks absolutely amazing!!

[freitasex]

@rhosteph

Thank you so much Rhonda :)

[TheJuliorockss]

Coolzzzzzszszzzazz

[freitasex]

@TheJuliorockss

Thanks!

[westislandkev]

I think I'll use the bacon for a bacon lettuce tomato sandwich and then have dessert. looks decadently rich.

[freitasex]

@westislandkev

Your idea is better than mine, thanks!

[westislandkev]

@freitasex well I'm all for trying new things and I commend you on doing so. Just when I saw the crispy bacon, I thought that it would make a wonderful BLT or turkey club sandwich, guess I was hungry. When I was a kid, bread pudding was an inexpensive way to use up old bread and make a sweet dessert so it was interesting to see the pumped up version. thx for the vids.

[azaburley]

i dont get what the bacon was for, im not sure if its an american thing or what =[ please reply

[XanRith09]

@azaburley often times the flavor of bacon (smokey, salty) compliments a sweet dessert, and works very well with chocolate..

[freitasex]

@azaburley

I thought the bacon sauce sounded good, but after a while.... I was wrong, if that makes an sense.

[passionclark]

how does bacon fit into anything sweet

[AphoticOndy]

@passionclark salty and sweet - epic combo.. you should try it

[freitasex]

@passionclark

I thought it would be good, I was wrong.



[passionclark]

@freitasex no i think it would be good it just kind of confused me at first but im gonna try it! =]

[catojoergensen1985]

Hey freitasex, i made the breakfast pizza for me and some guys after a rough night out. I had premade the dough so there was leterally no sweat. Topped it with bacon, onion, ham, jalapenos and fresh mozarella and real parmesan cheese.... You would have been proud...

[freitasex]

@catojoergensen1985

Your pizza sounds way better than what I made, wow, thanks!

[kareemtiheed]

The whipping cream sauce suggestion... use powdered sugar in the mix to give it a wonderful taste. If you like sweet like me try 1/4 cup powder sugar.

[freitasex]

@kareemtiheed

Thank you for your suggestion!

[Fitange]

@freitasex I'll take your word on the sauce. I appreciate you honesty with your replies, I think its great that you give us your opinions on your likes and dislikes. Thank you.

[ShowMeHowNow]

im hungry!!! Over-night-ship some my way!

[freitasex]

@ShowMeHowNow

What is your zip code?

92120?

I will check to see how much it is.

[Pikachupopper444]

[freitasex]

@Pikachupopper444

I have never heard that one before, wow, thanks!

[GCgame]

Thanks so much for watching ? NO ! THANKS TO YOU BECAUSE YOU EXIST AND YOU MADE THE BEST CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE !! GOOD JOB I LOVE YOU (no homo).

[freitasex]

@GCgame

GC, I love you too (no homo).

[renee7aw]

i love bread puddding...so many variations...i have never heard of the bacon flavored sauce and i'm drawn to some pretty unlikely combinations...bacon is always good and of course the salty sweet is always pleasing to my palate...thanks for sharing =)

[freitasex]

@renee7aw

Thank you very much!

[NoLoveAvailable]

BACON?!?!?! WHYY?

[freitasex]

@NoLoveAvailable

I thought bacon sounded good, I was wrong.

[edenbainbridge]

that vanilla bean was being quite obstinate, lol

btw i got me some fiesta wear this week :)

i have never felt so maternal over place settings before

xoexo

[freitasex]

@edenbainbridge

I am very happy for you to get some :)

Remember on Betty Crocker products you could save up those box top "points"?

That is how I bought most of my fiesta ware.

They did away with that program around 4 years ago.

[edenbainbridge]

@freitasex i have been squirreling $ away for some time away for a while now to get some 'grown up' plates. i was ill of using plastic crap that we have had since mike was in college. at first he was mighty ticked at me... but now he loves the fiesta wear. he has chosen the sun flower color as 'his set'. to boot his mom has some old school fiesta wear in her basement and he is after it. i wish i knew about the betty crocker points though. i only remember the s&h stamps, lol

xoexo

[TheCerebralPunk]

Another awesome recipe, sir. Thank you. :-)

[freitasex]

@TheCerebralPunk

Thank you very much!

[TheVittleVlog]

Looks awesome...!!

[freitasex]

@TheVittleVlog

Thank you!

[ChristopherMast]

My Aunt Elouise used to make bread pudding from her depression-era recipes and I hated it... always avoided anything called bread pudding since childhood, but this looks pretty good and having seen how it's made helped. Also helped that it ended up looking like a brownie :) Might have to try this one some time.

[freitasex]

@ChristopherMast

I cannot imagine not like any bread pudding!

[kimloveben]

This recipes uses many egg yolks, do you have a recipe which uses egg whites so that we don't have to waste it?

[ChristopherMast]

@kimloveben Scrambled egg whites for breakfast :)

[freitasex]

@kimloveben

I agree egg whites for breakfast :)

[barstowmama]

I love bread pudding and yet hate chocolate...but I know my family would go gaga over this decadent desert. Definitely 2 thumbs up and if and when I do make it, I will do a video response.

[freitasex]

@barstowmama

You are the first that I know of that hates chocolate, my goodness wow!

[barstowmama]

@freitasex I know right? Most people are drawn to chocolate like flies to honey. I'm drawn by bacon. I'm more of a savory person. I don't really like sweets. I'm going to be making your breakfast pizza soon. Why? Because of the bacon. :-) BTW...we both have the jadeite batter bow. I love it!

[AirrowRocket]

Intense!

[freitasex]

@AirrowRocket

Thanks!

[pinkbuttrfly2004]

Oh my goodness, I think I am gonna fave this so I can make it for Christmas, sans the bacon sauce - I can see where I would love that, but my family.. I dunno.. This looks amazing!

[freitasex]

@pinkbuttrfly2004

Thank you so much!

[meowkie]

Hey! Here's a free invite to my house! Just throwing it out there! (I can't WAIT until I can afford to try this!!!!!!!)

[freitasex]

@meowkie

Where do you live? lol

[lmdelsanto1]

Excellent cooking videos. I am happy I found you. Thank you so much for your expertise..

[freitasex]

@lmdelsanto1

Wow, thanks!

[jcrefasi1]

I am a recovering chocoholic currently in a 12 step program. This bread pudding would be worth falling off the wagon for! I would skip the bacon and have a plain custard sauce to top it. Thanks for the video.

[freitasex]

@jcrefasi1

Plain custard sauce would be perfect!

[ilovstodance]

ohhh yummie that is comfort dessert make it all the time thks for yr video and others who may learn how to make this delicious dessert

[freitasex]

@ilovstodance

You are welcome and thank you!

[Fitange]

mmmm goodness that looks so wonderful. What did it taste like?

[freitasex]

@Fitange

It was really rich and full of chocolate flavor, pretty dense.

The sauce was something new, I would skip that.

[mizugawa]

@freitasex Well, usually you're supposed to cook a sauce like that in a larger pot with hot water rather than directly on a stove, so that it doesn't end up being sweet scrambled eggs with cream (^__~ )

But the pudding looks awesome, I guess I'll be trying that soon.

[spygirl43]

I thought your secret ingredient was going to be a red pepper in the chocolate. I think little bit of spice would taste amazing. I don't think I'd go for the bacon sauce just the whip cream would be good.

[freitasex]

@spygirl43

Actually I agree with you, thanks!

[annasophiabebe]

crazy! but i bet it taste amazing!

[freitasex]

@annasophiabebe

It is very rich, the sauce was new and I ended up not liking the sauce too much.

[MissPonderosa]

Oh that looked soooo moist & good - the colours contrasted beautifully! Even the batter looked good! (haha kinda looked like rocky road!) This is definitely a no-fail recipe :P

[freitasex]

@MissPonderosa

Aw, thank you :)

[Treephoo]

looks nice but that sauce was all scrambled.

[freitasex]

@Treephoo

Very true

[chrissiemoda]

you really are the dessert king;-)

[freitasex]

@chrissiemoda

I don't know about that!

[trollhaim]

PORN :)

I love your show man keep going :)

[freitasex]

@trollhaim

Okay, thanks!

[Barnekkid]

That's really neat, I've never heard of chocolate bread pudding. The bacon was totally unexpected.

[freitasex]

@Barnekkid

Thanks!

[thizizliz]

Oh goodness Michael, no wonder bread pudding is so popular in the south! I have never heard of bacon sauce though - that was really interesting. If I ever want to make bread pudding, I'll look up this recipe - it's a no fail with those ingredients! PS for more certain whipping - pop your beaters and bowl into the freezer for a couple of moments before using.

[freitasex]

@thizizliz

Thank you for the tip Liz!

[thizizliz]

@freitasex You do so many great recipes and of some fascinating foods. I really enjoy your channel a great deal - and sometimes (don't tell anyone; this is just between us you know) I have a little pot envy...

[wc3nExiZi]

[freitasex]

@wc3nExiZi

Thank you!

[baniraxneko]
