In a community post they said they are republishing after dropping the shady sponsorship from cafe casino
❤
❤
wait, what happened?
Happy they did that. Love them getting sponsorships, but this was just too shady.
Thanks for the heads up, I never think to check community posts myself.
Can we appreciate what Alvin has accomplished here for a min? I get that we're all happy they heard us and removed the ads, but everything about this is FIRE! From the custom dough and original spreads to the incredible final assembly and the half-and-half look. This is the kind of thing I just dream of...
Big respect for owning up to a mistake and making it right so quick. Awesome to see!
Yeah, it's always nice when channels listen to viewer feedback!
Yeah, it's always nice when channels accept garbage sponsors and only react when the community speaks out!
@@Hawk7886 We're all human, we all make mistakes. But if we can't forgive, what's the point of saying sorry? They owned up to it. I appreciate and respect it. Let's move on as people.
@@Hawk7886when he won't do anything you guys will cry, if he does something for it, you guys still cry
@@jaydoggy9043 nah owning up to it would've been a community post and nuking the video outright, not reposting it with the sponsor cut. A full Chad move would've been adding in a short segment to _this_ video fully explaining the situation to their entire audience since the only ones who know are the people who read the comments or saw the original post.
Appreciate you responding to feedback and re-uploading this. ❤
I never comment on videos, but it's worth it this time to thank the babish team for removing that shady sponsor. That was the right thing to do, so we'll done!
Let's hope they also drop the Better Help sponsor.
@@JasoTheRed48F2 is it okay if I ask what happened with BetterHelp?
@@klai2005 they shared customer's personal data
@@klai2005 they've been sharing customer's data, and lying about the service in general for years. They don't guarantee the therapist you get is actually licensed, and take enormous cuts. It's just a terrible service
@@klai2005 Not to be that person, but theres plenty of videos on it you can find readily, since youre already here on youtube.
Biggest issue is HIPAA violations (that they say that they can legally do, but idk ive seen arguments for either side) of them selling private health data. They've hired unlicensed therapists, used/stolen info from unrelated therapists as if they were with better help, force any therapists they work with into very bad unfair contracts, paired very unfitting therapist to patient needs/concerns and makes it tough for the patients to do anything about it, makes it very tough for patients to quit - in a very manipulative way taking advantage of the situation, etc.
All very scummy stuff from a company that wants to "help" people with mental health problems.
Glad to see you guys drop that sponsorship
Watched this yesterday but re-watching it again today to show respect for Andrew removing the sketch sponser.
What a hero.
Love Alvin's videos, but I rarely comment on them. Just had to remark how endlessly refreshing it is to see the channel continuously addressing community concerns. It is honestly so rare to see that nowadays and one of the top reasons why I have been a subscriber for all of these years, since the very, very early days, when Andrew was evaluating different types of grilled cheeses pre-Tampano days. Keep up the amazing work, everybody!
The same way I complained about the sponsorship, I'm gonna give you props for the fast reaction and doing the right thing here.
italian here, when you made the pistachio pesto i though "that's not what we mean by that but i think alvin's version might be better!" Glad everyone in the studio agrees.
I thought the original famous sandwich was bread called schiacciata, not focaccia ???
@@JRyan-dz4fd Some Italian bread aficionado will be along to argue with me shortly, but they're the same thing. I've lived in Italy, I've tried both from a typical baker, they are indistinguishable to your average human being.
@@Bazzamatazz87if by "shortly" you mean in 2 months, here I am. I'm italian, here I've heard some people, obviously especially in Tuscany, that get kinda worked up when they hear stuff like this. The main difference (I think) is that focaccia has a lot of different styles, the most famous one being from Genoa, tall and fluffy. Schiacciata, on the other hand, looks like a pressed down focaccia, very crunchy and not that tall, hence the name (="flattened").
I made these for dinner last night! I wrote the recipe down before it got taken down. I appreciate you taking it down and reuploading without that sponsor. You guys should make this, it was awesome!
A "pesto" is basically anything that is made with a mortar and pestle, it doesn't need to have basil in it. So, yeah, theirs was indeed a pistachio pesto, and that's how it's usually made, with no basil at all.
i think the ingredients should be raw or at least the preparation should require no cooking 🤓
@@putruccu not necessarily, you can make pesto with roasted bellpeppers or sundried/ovendried tomatoes
@@GeekyEleanor does sundrying count as cooking? :-D but anyway we agree that the last preparation must happen without heat (excluding the one generated by mortar and pestle to be pedantic)
I’ve been to the original All’antico vinaio in Florence and they definitely stack more compared to NYC from what I can see here. Also, I believe the veggies used in the Inferno sandwich are usually eggplant, but I did add zucchini on mine; happy to see Alvin did the same :)
The fact that is super popular with tourists only should tell them the "real" Italia food is somewhere else. I mean, our panino are simpler than the ones they make 😅
Excellent response to an advertiser that doesn't sit well with the audience! I already respect y'all for listening to the community, I'm very glad that that respect isn't misplaced when money is involved.
I didn't watch this yesterday, but I am watching it today.
well🤔 you're not wrong in that I watch it yesterday so must be a reason for them to repost it again
@@mattt0149 The reason was a trash sponsorship with one of those predatory online gambling sites. They removed the sponsorship now and reposted it without it.
@@mattt0149their sponsor was a gambling app. The community was rightly disappointed in them for supporting that type of business.
@@mattt0149 they cut a sponsor segment for a gambling app
@@mattt0149in the original video, they had an advertisement for a gambling company that was sponsoring them. However they removed it and then re uploaded this video
I love how Alvin always makes enough for everyone to take home.
huge huge respect for dropping the sponsor. Didn't watch it yesterday, now am watching it!
How am I supposed to enjoy this without my gambling sponsorship?!?!
True! I need to know that the golden rush era is Alvin's favorite!
bro's going to re-re-upload the video if this got top comment 💀💀
@@victortheimposter7888 they'll upload both versions at that point
that's not what a mentally sound person would say, you need Better Help
I'm waiting for the next wine or coffee ad...
BCU: *features a shady gambling sponsorship*
*viewers don’t like the sponsor*
BCU: *admits mistake and removed the sponsorship like the Gigachad they are*
yup
If only they had the integrity to remove the Better Help sponsorships as well.
@@Talkimas what happened with betterhelp
@@TheVincenzoGaming it's a scam
@@TheVincenzoGaming U can look it up it's just another capitalist company trying to profit off people
Unfortunately I think the contract might extend until a certain amount of time but I hope they can drop it
Anything With Alvin "Go Ahead" Count:
12 "go ahead"s (1.2 "go ahead"s per minute)
I had a chuckle at the comment "You can't hear everyone but they are nodding"
That explains why I couldn’t find the video after seeing the thumbnail yesterday. Well done BCU.
i truly love seeing what happens to all the leftovers whether it be make something new and or sharing it a lot of cooking shows have so much waste
Alvin is so nice in watching this twice!
If you do any summer themed videos for Alvin, I would recommend you try the ice cream from Cow's on Prince Edward Island in Canada
They would have to go do it there or get milk over the border, but it would be pretty cool they have the best ice creams.
Very Happy to see it back! Thanks ❤❤❤
Really proud of the Babish team to take down the video and reupload without the shady sponsorship. Thank you! The sandwich that was made looks absolutely incredible and I may even attempt to make that bread myself!
Rarely do I post comments, but I'm so glad you dropped the sponsor and reuploaded! Thank you guys!
Then why comment?
This video was better today... Maybe a dish best served cold!
For reference: to make elastic or more elastic is to elasticize
TIL People actually watch the sponsor segments in videos.
I doubt its a case of watching them and moreso seeing it for two seconds/reading the description and coming to their own conclusions. Most people skip, but considering this was a gambling company it makes sense theres a lot of outcry (just like there is for hello fresh/factor, and betterhelp, etc.)
@@lychenthrope there was outcry for factor/hello fresh?
@@ricismokes6154 Apparently some people are like "we're too broke to afford this!" or "they still use plastic sometimes!" so they spend just as much money at the grocery store and throw away twice as much plastic. Lol.
Thing is, Hello Fresh is NOT A REQUIRED THING TO LIVE and is ENTIRELY A CHOICE TO BUY if it's something you can afford and want to buy. Factor is basically just a fancier version of TV dinners, which I'm not seeing any of these Factor haters boycott. And let me tell you, the TV dinners we have right now are MUCH worse for multiple reasons!
So yeah, there was outcry. But the same kind of misplaced outcry that really has no basis other than it's... entirely optional for people to consume. You know, these same people who spend more time tweeting about problems rather than doing anything to solve them. That's what the outcry is.
Sandwich looks amazing and even more props for the integrity that you guys demonstrated!
I appreciate Alvin's chef brain becoming more and more macro-pilled as his tenure with the BCU goes on.
Similar to Andrews "We might as well make _____ from scratch" arc, I hope we see Alvin find more and more justifications to make gigantic food in videos that don't call for it.
Owning up to mistakes is why I love this channel.
BTW, made my own version of this sandwich, and it was amazing!
I appreciate that yall read the room.
I try not to give creators flak for taking money when its there, but there's gotta be boundaries sometimes.
Online gambling is a thing I'm really hard against.
Appreciate y'all dropping the casino app!!
Thank you for listening to us.
If Alvin decides to recreate Guilmon Bread, Babish should invite Steve Blum.
cafe casino is seething rn
3:23 the right porchetta had closed eyes and a mouth that looks like he was tired and wants to sleep 😂😂
What a nice never before seen video! 🥰
Wish y'all would drop Better Help too
THANK YOU!!!
Thank you for listening to your people. We love you.
you have owned my respect by not supporting gambling .
I don't know the specifics of the sponsor they booted, but how is supporting a gambling platform any different than advertising liquor or wine clubs? Alcoholism is arguably more harmful and addictive than gambling (at least physiologically) but no one bats an eye when he mixes a cocktail during a sponsored bit.
@@mj.ray0898 Likely because gambling apps don't have age restrictions on mobile platforms and things like alcohol have age restrictions to keep children from consuming it. Also, gambling is more short-term harmful than alcohol, as the dopamine fixes can cause you to waste all of your money - that could also be part of the outcry. At least with alcohol, there's an expectation to drink responsibly and he presents it in terms of a "once in a while" fancy pairing for the food he makes - which is different than promoting gambling, especially if it's an app you can plug and play at any time that's available to everyone of all ages.
Thank you for listening to us, I’ll comment and watch through this whole video this time to show support in your decision!
Does more views/ the times the video is watched till the end contribute to how well the channel does?
I am also glad the sponsorship in the original uploaded was taken out, but is there anyway else viewers could help positively? (other than the comment, like, share & sub)
You could support their other sponsors. But if you're frugal, then yes, viewer retention is very important (that's why most videos are over 10 minutes long). That means watching the full thing through! Sharing does also help.
Thanks for being someone who, instead of latching onto a bad attitude for dear life, wanted to focus on the core issue of whether or not the team just needs money. Your heart (and your head) is in the right place.
They are making tons of money with or without you dude. Don't worry about it.
Watched it yesterday, watching it again today.
Honestly looks nice, considering making maybe a smaller version of this. I don't think I have the upper body strength to make a sandwich slab 😅
I have never seen a youtube page so out of touch to the common man. This page would make Ramsay blush.
I missed the old sponsor on this, but it's nice to see the team taking feedback about bad sponsors to heart. Now we just need to keep on them about dropping Better Help...
AwA is always amazing to watch on BwB! Keep up the great content guys!!
Thank you all for dropping the prior sponsor! It was absolutely the responsible thing to do!
Which sponsor
@@JaxdoesArt look up the community posts.
@@JaxdoesArt gambling sponsor. some casino phone app.
Mate, they never would've done it if people hadn't said anything. It's 100% a financial decision. If they were responsible, they would've never taken the deal in the first place.
Love this, Im dying to see a " Day in the Life of: a coworker in BWB", the real question, do they ever have to bring their own lunch? my guess is now. or do they have lunch WARS and compete to see who has the tastiest lunch???
I wish people gave actual temperatures. Luke warm is not on my thermometer...
"Lukewarm" is the same as "room temperature," i.e. the temperature in which you feel neither hot nor cold. If you were to put your hand into/onto it and the temperature was about the same as your hand, then it is lukewarm. Usually this ranges from the high 60s(F) through the 70s(F), depending on your preferred temperature.
Gonna try to make this and bring Florence to our house! Thanks for posting Babish team!
You did this yesterday!!!!! I was in town watching this waiting on my lunch @Domino's!!!!
Dominos*
I am still waiting for the Noodle Burger from Big Hero 6.
Maybe I will do it myself
This is my favorite stop before going home from work related things. I usually have two in my bag, lol.
Thanks for the great video! The sandwiches looked so delicious!
Mars-capone, not to be confused with his cousin, Al
Hopefully no more better help ads as well.
This might be the most beautiful sandwich I've ever seen. Ever.
I've made thousands of trays of focaccia in the restaurant and none of them was that wet and hard to handle. I'd just go all ingredients into the mixer, perhaps with a larger portion of instant yeast to avoid that whole first stage, mix it until barely combined, turn out and divide into tray sized portions, hand kneed just to form a ball, rest to rise and then poke it out into the pan. Savory or sweet, it was just lovely and the perfect balance of fluffy inside and crispy outside. For the sweet, I'd do sliced fruit and turbinado sugar on top before baking for brunch and the farmers market. And I'd shoot for slightly thinner than that.
Big respect to Babish and the team for re-upping this without the sponsor.
if this were a different platform, I'd post the Thinking Guy meme with the caption: "you can't notice the shady sponsor if you always skip past them in the first place!".
Because you used a wet rub for your porchetta, the skin didn´t puff up as wanted.... it´s important that the skin puffs up for better texture and so it´s easier to cut it with a serated knife
Happy to see they dropped the sponsor, thanks for listening BCU team
Thanks guys for the reupload, I'm going to rewatch it even though I watched it yesterday. I do wish you guys took a look at recipes from Yuru Camp though, the latest season has done really interesting recipes. There are cool recipes in the other seasons too.
Favorite from when I was in Florence was the Dante. Don't know how to make the truffle cream so when I was making it at home I used a truffle infused burrata for the stracciatella.
I love Alvin but he made a totally different sandwich!
Kinda makes me want to make some of that bread
Eyyy No gambling huh
Is it just me, or is Alvin getting a way lot screen time than Babish? I don't know if its because Babish is more busy, or Alvins more popular, but i would prefer to see more Babish centered videos tbh
If there is an Inferno sandwich and a Paradiso sandwich, what would a Purgatorio sandwich be like?
I was wondering where this video went; glad to hear the sponsor issue was owned up to and resolved.
I've got to stop watching these right before lunch 😭
so true 😭
I'm watching this while I'm eating lunch and I'm very sad that I'm not eating this....
Yeah, I'll rewatch it. 🫵🏼👴🏼👌🏼
Day 201 of petitioning Babish to make the Triple Fried Egg Sandwich with Chilli Sauce and Chutney from Red Dwarf
Born and raised in Italy and I never heard of this sandwich. Must be only famous in Florence.
Alvin’s content is really taking over this channel. I kind of wish these were two separate channels, or at least that Babish would go back to making more content.
Me too. I miss Babby
So... n'duja (or however it's spelled) is the Italian version of/answer to Cajun andouille, which I _have_ tried? Thanks, Alvin! This clarifies an issue one of the other channels I subscribe to is having lately.
remember to watch, upvote, comment etc since they re-uploaded this due to community feedback
Great video, Alvin! Your Bread looks awesome! I like that you went and checked out the sandwiches from the store as well.
Day one of asking for the Oppenheimer cereal bomb from the new South Park special 'The end of obesity'
I can confidently say I never had a true authentic Italian sandwich
“Elasticize” was the word you were looking for, sir.
So happy there's one in midtown. I go there once a week at least
Thanks gang, I’m really hungry for a sandwich now tho
Antico Vinaio is the mc donalds of Italian street food spots
I thought of a segment you guys can do, "make it fancy" where you take tv and box dinners and make it into a fancy style
LETS GOOO!!! WE'RE SO BAAAACK!!!!
Remember fam, they'd have taken the money and left the sponsor in if you didn't say anything. The video got made without enough internal pushback to make anyone reconsider promoting gambling, so we had to. The sandwich looks fine or whatever.
I need more Anime with Alvin!! This looked delicious though!
Maybe not portable sandwiches but the birds and squirrels will love y’all if y’all walk and eat them outside
Bro that was not a teaspoon of red pepper flakes but i appreciate the spice commitment
Thank you for listening to everyone who spoke up; it means a lot
Now that the gambling ad is gone, everyone join the new mob against saying pestle as "pestil". Who's comin with me!.... oh nobody...
The power of the people!!
My partner and I were like "guess they just wanted a big bag o cash" yesterday. Glad to see the course correction!
How to tell Alvin is in the kitchen by only using the script:
"Instead of making individual sandwiches, I decided to make one GIANT..."
thank you for dropping the gambling sponsor. Its nice to know you listen to the fans when something is wrong ❤
