I work in a lab that gets dry ice shipments once a week, we always have it on hand. I've seen the residue left over after normal dry ice sublimates. Dirt, pieces of cardboard from packing, etc. Definitely make sure you're using food grade dry ice if you're gonna try these.
Same here. How would you know if your dry ice is food safe when getting it from a delivery box? I assume the food doesn't have direct contact with any of it so why would the shippers use anything different/special?
I really love how accessible your ultra specific niche content is. I'll likely never have an opportunity to try this, but you can sure bet I'll remember this video with perfect clarity if I do.
“We are painfully familiar with how the back half of the bell curve operates” Haha good thing he isn’t talking about me. “Don’t eat the dry ice” Goddamn it he’s talking about me.
I think the ice cream is a cool trick, but the constant fear of "oops I made a tiny mistake, now I'm dead" probably cements it in the cool in theory category.
@@Fadeways the plastic wrap will give and not create shrapnel. Worst case scenario you bust your ear drums, unlikely though. Edit: changed crate to create
@@Fadeways That container was far bigger than the volume of all the things in it, I think it would be fine, but yeah pretty funny how that ended up back to back.
I wonder if there's possibly some mild protection due to the Leidenfrost effect. For example like with those 2 viral videos involving the scientist explaining about liquid nitrogen, and the metal worker even slapping a stream of molten metal. There's a very fleeting period of protection due to a layer of water on the skin evaporating from the temparature change, this vapor gives a brief insulating layer of protection. The chef steps videos show very quick brief touches rather than any confident handling, so hopefully less likelihood of anything clinging to skin. Not sure, though.
Hey man. I don't think I fall under the category of "back half of the bell curve" but I do appreciate the disclaimer. I would hope I wouldn't eat dry ice/stick it in a closed bottle, but I didn't know that those were the specific causes + effects of doing those actions. You probably didn't save my life, but you did make me a more informed person. Which I appreciate.
Another safety tip I’ve learned is to keep windows open/ handle dry ice outside as much as possible. It’s a tail risk, but carbon dioxide poisoning (distinct from the much better known carbon monoxide poisoning) can be a thing in extreme cases, and dry ice shouldn’t be handled in small unventilated spaces.
Furthermore, if you notice yourself feeling lightheaded at any point, best to put it away and go outside immediately, call a doctor if it gets very severe or someone faints.
I watched this video yesterday and today after passing out off an edible I dreamed I had eaten dry ice and was about to die. Thank you for giving me a nightmare from a cooking video
this video would’ve been helpful when i worked in a kitchen that frequently received salmon atop dry ice. who knew we could’ve been making frizzy fruit instead of playing hot potato.
Back in new york my high school would host a fruit and veggie market, where we got fresh produce before the local stores even did. They'd sell "fizzy fruit" and it was always amazing and CRAZY fresh.
i think its absolutely insane how you consistently land such interesting sponsors, like i dont even wanna skip the ad even if its at the end of the video
I followed your safety tips and wore gloves. I dropped the dry ice, it broke into small pieces and when I tried to walk away I was stepping on tiny, hard to see, pieces of dry ice. It instantly felt like my feet were on the surface of the sun. (This wasn't actually your fault, it was like two weeks ago. Wear shoes if you plan to accidentally drop your dry ice blocks)
The difference is that a saran-wrap isn't totally airtight, and even if it was, a cling-film blowout is far less severe than one from a hard plastic bottle
Those classic chef steps videos really are amazing. I downloaded them in case they ever get removed from TH-cam for any reason. Haven't found any TH-cam channel similar to their old style of stuff
I've done that carbonated icecream trick a couple times before, its fun stuff! I particularly recommend making it root beer flavored, as you'll have a solid float. Also, the flecks really aren't that dangerous. Just make sure to chew/let it all melt in your mouth so you can catch any bits of dry ice where they can't do any serious damage
Instead of a cooler, how about a pressure cooker? It's sealed and air tight, it has a pressure gauge so you can release pressure if it gets too high, they are built to withstand lots of pressure, they have multiple safety mechanisms to relieve pressure if it gets too high, and it's insulated.
Every year on the fourth of july when I was younger we made ice cream with liquid nitrogen! The guy who stirred the ice cream would scream as if something was wrong every year, and none of the kids could see what happened through the fog. From the saftey tips, to mentioning alton brown, this video is pretty nostalgic :) I'd love to try fizzy fruit some day too!
Stirring in liquid nitrogen is the only way I've ever made ice cream. Recipes with ice cream makers or multiple bowls and salt just seen so much more complicated.
"Don't put it an air-tight container as it is dangerous.... unless of course you're try to carbonate fruit in which case it's the sole way to make that fruit." 😂
We made dry ice soft serve as our 8th grade science fair project! Don't know if "is dry ice cream tasty?" was a strong hypothesis, but the answer was definitely yes. After seeing this video, I'm glad we didn't burn our esophaguses. We broke up our dry ice up by smashing a pillow case full of it with a hammer.
I thought there were different types of dry ice. Ones that are food and and ones that aren't food safe because some dry ice may have impurities that can be toxic.
I’ve always wondered if one could make a low-oxygen environment in a cooler by sticking in dry ice in. There would be no sealing, as you want the original air to vent out, plus it would prevent pressure build up. Theoretically, a mainly CO2 atmosphere would preserve foods from spoiling via oxidation, along with being very cold slowing down biological processes. Could be interesting to try.
@@stocktonsipes5753 Yummy carbonated sandwich! Maybe a cheap cooler would not be very air tight from the factory. So if any pressure builds up it vents it no problem. Although, I actually don't know that much about coolers. Maybe most are fairly airtight and the hypothetical coolers I'm imagining are kinda unrealistic.
Lol, I used to work in a lab, we'd get dry ice all the time. Never thought of trying this. We did used to put it in a sink full of warm water and soap, it made a lot of bubbles.
Came to learn how to carbonate fruit. Left with the knowledge to make an improvised explosive. Thank you so much internet shaquille. On an unrelated note, is your wife able to represent me?

CO2 isn't as dangerous as pure nitrogen, helium or carbon monoxide because you'll actually feel your CO2 levels increase and it will make you panic/leave the room/breath faster rather than peacefully drift into hypoxia and die
Shaqulle: "Never ever touch dry ice with your hands" Shaquille at 2:20: touches dry ice with his hands. Lol, just kidding of course. Like the vids and this one was especially interesting.
So eating dry ice is dangerous, that I know, but I'm not sure I get how powdering up and eating dry ice is safe then? I would be stressed all the way, especially if I made it with a not really top of the line blender, just looking for little pebbles of ice.
a lot of it will evaporate when you toss it in the fridge-temp cream mixture. He's right the best idea is to throw it in the freezer overnight though just to make sure the rest evaporates.

FYI that tang is carbonic acid. Happens when CO2 interacts with water to form H2CO3
Reminded me of the tumblr story where OP combined instant milk powder and carbonated water and figured out the alchemy of instantly spoiled milk.
I think the ice cream is a cool trick, but the constant fear of "oops I made a tiny mistake, now I'm dead" probably cements it in the cool in theory category.
By blending it and waiting an extra hour with the ice cream in the freezer, I think you eliminate the chance of eating dry ice
true
it's really not that big of a deal. you'll be fine. it will sublimate even in the freezer
He is exaggerating, TKOR ate some and didn't die, worst case scenario you eat a small bit and get a bit of frostburn
Loved the clip of chefs steps touching the dry ice with his skin just after the safety warning 🤣

Another safety tip - use your dry ice in well ventilated room to avoid suffocation by CO2
CO2 isn't as dangerous as pure nitrogen, helium or carbon monoxide because you'll actually feel your CO2 levels increase and it will make you panic/leave the room/breath faster rather than peacefully drift into hypoxia and die

When the dry ice sublimates, it spurts out visible clouds of gas. When the gas subsides, you can tell that there probably aren't any solids left.
a lot of it will evaporate when you toss it in the fridge-temp cream mixture. He's right the best idea is to throw it in the freezer overnight though just to make sure the rest evaporates.
