I worked at panera for a year, and the soups aren’t made at the store they’re shipped to the store frozen and they get heated up, so the two soups really were identical
Nah it's likely that the store soup has more preservatives. Generally in a restaurant situation like that the soup is prepared at a separate facility to assure consistency, but less chemicals are added because it's going to be sold sooner. Same goes for most of these foods. Def TGIF.
As a former panera employee.... the soups are probably identical. We used to drop like 5lb frozen bags of soup into what was basically boiling water and then after they were thawed and heated up we would open the bag put them in a cambro/metal bucket thing and bring them to the front as if we had just made soup. I cant imagine the difference between one frozen soup and another is very much especially from the same company.
Oliver Hinson greens come in bags too. everything else is delivered daily to my location. every other food is like how you’d buy in bulk at a costco and then we prep it.
I like the idea of soup in bread bowls but in practice I'm usually just stressed that a hot liquid is only being contained by an easily torn loaf of bread.
Nope, my brother used to run a pizza shop, I run a store with fresh/frozen, fresh is "fresh", it's not slaughtered right out back, but fresh implies that it has not been frozen and is less then a few days old. there's really a huge difference in taste once you taste "fresh" vs "frozen", then again there's today's catch/slaughter... that's a whole new world, there's very few restaurants or stores that offers "meat of the day". but no you can't cut out "the middle man" and pass it off as "fresh". Only the worst restaurants or stores offer frozen as "fresh", because everybody can tell and you'll get really bad reviews from even the most basic customer... they won't complain and say "it didn't taste fresh" but they will complain about stuff like "it was dry", "mushy", "chewy"... it's obvious.
they were testing fastfood chains "which indeed uses frozen ingredients" not your local pizza shop. also i highly doubt that you "run" anything... you might work at a grocery store though.
I work at Friday’s and man I can tell you those damn potato skins 🤢🤢🤢 just don’t do it my dude. Half the time they’re freezer burnt and they still serve them 🤮
Erik Carl A lot of talk for someone who doesn't know a fast-food is. These are NOT fast food chains. They are restaurants. Fast food are places like McDonalds, Wendy's, Sonic, Arby.. They take about 2-5 minutes to make your food. These places you go in, order, and you may be waiting 15 or so minutes. Unless it's a buffet.
Thank you! Just what I thought. You guys aren't chefs making soups back there. All chains have factory commissaries where the items are mass produced to company specifications and then shipped to the outlets. Otherwise it would taste different at every one.
@@johnnyvisconti2197 All of the drinks were basically a sludge kept in a freezer that you put into a big machine. The machine then blended the sludge with other ingredients to get the final result. edit: Also all of the bread products came frozen and were then defrosted. It is why the Tim Horton's bread tastes so bad.
Same, doing the truck at 5 in the morning and having to lift 20+ boxes of frozen soup will make you hate soup real quick. I won’t lie I miss that Mac n Cheese.
Stinky Pete Really? What a bunch of liars they are, soup is cooked in an industrial kitchen somewhere unknown, it comes cooked and frozen in boxes with 3 bags in each box, we put them in the freezer then is used as needed, Panera has a machine with hot water, you put the bags in there then after 10 minutes they get the bags out, pour the content of the bag in a pot and is ready to eat😂😂
These guys should do something outside of their gmm set like bringing back "the backup plan" or experimenting outside and like the sensory deprivation tank. Boy was that super fun
New recipe: Pizza Skins 4 large baking potatoes 1/2 cup provolone cheese 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese 1 packet of pepperoni 2 cups bought marinara or homemade if preferred Preheat oven to 400 degrees, mix provolone cheese and mozzarella in medium mixing bowl and set aside. Wash the potatoes under cold water thoroughly, once the oven has reached 400 degrees, put the potatoes in and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the size of the potatoes. Once the potatoes have finished baking take them out and let them cool until you can handle them with your bare hands. Take the potatoes and split them in half, after you have split all of the potatoes smash each half into a circle, use a rolling pin to flatten the halves out, after you have flattened them out sprinkle the cheese mixture and the pepperoni on top of the potato skins. After you have prepared them, turn on the broiler and let it get hot, once it has place the skins in until the cheese melts then remove and enjoy.
I should let you guys know. I got my wisdom teeth pulled this morning and I am absolutely miserable. But the only thing that makes me happy is you two right now. Thanks for what you do and keep it up!!
My Kroger's sells the Chili's Cajun Chicken pasta but with the penne noodles and it is phenomenal Also, the should've made this into a blindfolded taste test. Some of them seemed too obvious just by the way they looked
I had a massive Arby’s curly fry, when I say massive, I mean it was from the bottom of my hand (the heal) to the first knuckle of my middle finger in length... when it was coiled. It was very close to an inch in diameter.
shadowmannine he has been constantly rude to link for months now. Many moments like this with Rhett criticizing link for some little thing. It’s getting really annoying.
Do you know what is getting lowkey annoying? People claiming that they are fighting and bad friends and don't like doing the show anymore... Which may all be true but we don't know so don't speculate of claim to know about things like that.
"I'm not gonna guess different just to be different, cause that would be wrong", i see that throwback diss to Link changing his vote to the Rhett's side of Panera Bread Broccoli Cheddar Soup just to 'differentiate myself'.
Is so sad knowing that rhett was depressed during this time and we were not aware by that fact. Him joking about leaving the show and it feeling better hit so hard now
I worked at panera for a year, and the soups aren’t made at the store they’re shipped to the store frozen and they get heated up, so the two soups really were identical
Same I worked there too. I was very interested to find out but then I was like... wait a second they would be exactly the same
Well that’s disappointing
Nah it's likely that the store soup has more preservatives. Generally in a restaurant situation like that the soup is prepared at a separate facility to assure consistency, but less chemicals are added because it's going to be sold sooner. Same goes for most of these foods. Def TGIF.
Also, depending on the different heating proccesses, they could change flavors
I hate when resteraunts do that. They should just buy fresh food and make it fresh

Everardo Calderón their bread is freshly baked right? But the dough comes from somewhere else?
