oh my god. I can't believe I've watched 100% of your series. Please continue this and maybe collab with other vegan channels ♥️ Congrats on 100K! Finally!!!
The chicken tenders made with grapefruit peels are actually a “periodo especial” recipe from Cuba, not intentionally vegan but invented to get through very very hard times there! My grandma made it for me once, I can confirm it wasn’t good 😂 but it really has a cool history
This is such a great commemorative video for your venture on viral vegan food videos!!!! It gave nostalgia!!! I love when rie told you she wished she didnt see the carrot marinade🤣🤣
I actually made the banana peel one. It tasted really good, but you need at least three peels to make a substantial sandwich, which isn't realistic. Also, I could still taste the banana a little bit, which was weird. I also made carrot hot dogs. I don't think it's the same recipe in the Goodful video, but it tasted amazing... and I also got made fun of for it.
Your videos are always a sure thing, as far as enjoyment goes. It was useful to remember the best ones. Always like how you acknowledge your sources of inspiration. One thing I'd like to see on a cooking show is someone making flavoured tofu, by flavoring the soy milk and then making tofu from it. Does it then give you a tofu that's flavoured all the way through? Just a thought. Nice one, Merle, congratulations.
Thank you for all of your hard work!! I've enjoyed learning about different vegan options. I'm allergic to mushrooms, so learning about meat/mushrooms alternatives are awesome! Thank you for trying so I don't have too. Congratulations on you 100k 🎉
I just wanna say a BIG congrats to you Merle!! You so deserve it! You are my and I would guess most of ours ultimate vegan queen and I so appreciate all the content you provide. It is so much needed and it is sooo appreciated. I love you, hope to see you soon with whatever you put out next, send my love to Aria as well please, hope to see him back too at some point as y'all are just too cute together. But yeah. Love you, thank you, keep at it, and let's get you another plaque because you do so deserve it!! 💖💖💖💖
oh yeah and I have tried the grapefruit peel "chikun" but I've played with it a bit cos its a traditional Cuban thing so I felt the need to try and get it right :)
Congrats on 100k 🌞 I'd love to see a video more about what you cook with yuba! ...what recipes you add it to, different ways to use it, etc. Also, carrot dogs get hate, but I think they are yummy! Obviously not a hot dog but a nice meal in it's own right
Hibiscus is for tea or sorrel in my culture. When u said u had bags left over I said out loud “ Give them to meeee!” Lol it’s def a drink we make for holidays coming up
@@kelsey2333 Jamaican & British but I recently found out a lot of other cultures make sorrel and call it something else like Mexicans call it Jamaica pronounced (Ha- mic- a) 🤷🏾♀️
Congrats! I've been following you since day 1! Fun fact, I actually set something on fire in the microwave during the tofu skins video and needed to evacuate my house, but nevertheless, still love you and your videos!!
I bet the shawarma one would be good with sliced tofu. Especially if you marinated it and froze it. The texture changes and becomes much meatier. I wanna try that now.
I have the fried celery root for my Christmas dinner every year (since the traditional Christmas meal in Czech Republic is fried carp). So I cut it in the shape of a fish a deep fry it and have a vegan potato salad with it (also Czech tradition, but not vegen of course). :)
I think you should redo some of the recipes that you did in this video and give it a new twist. I love watching your videos. In a way, it makes me feel relax your aura is insane. Your fan from the Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Love you Merle 💖❣️You and your videos, not only your vegan ones are so lovely and cheered me up through the pandemic 💖Keep being you❤Honorable mention to you and Aria’s relationship ❤
It could be a different avocado brownie, but Alvin (yep, that Alvin) made the avocado brownie and we (Tasty Brasil) tried too… and it was a no for me. It tasted like fish hahahahah
Man I tried those "baby back ribs" recipe annnd it didn't turn out good for me. They were... they were gross. But I also was at the very beginning of my plant based journey and probably didn't do it right!
Congrats, Merle! I'm always here watching your videos. Do not comment as much because, for some reason, tons of vegan haters come to your comment section just to bully vegans. The times I have commented here, I regretted... 🤣 But always watching and liking your videos. And now to 1MM!
I have been watching your videos for quite some time now, and I was shocked I wasn't even subscribed. Just hit the Subdcribe button. And I rarely follow people, but I am such a big fan of you. 😊
I have used the hibiscus mix quite regularly. Tortillas first, then I switched to a mix with mashed potatoes, as a gratin or individual turnovers. It works beautifully !
What I don't get is it sounds like you don't make these recipes for yourself anymore. Are there any that remain in your normal rotation? What are the dishes that are worth exploring as a vegan outside of weird gimmicks?
CONGRATuLATIONS on 100k!!!!! You deserve it 10 times over!
Thank you so very much, Mark
Sauce Stache the legend himself!!
Totally!
Sauce stache when are going to crossover with merle I Neal for video on your TH-cam channel please do it🎉❤it would be nice and awesome 💯😎💖
The famous banana peel pull pork video is definitely on a tier of its own 😆
Hahahaaha it was my first child so it holds a special place
Thank you for all the fun content you have been giving us. More power to you Merle!
Thank you so much for the support!!!

Merle, thank you for all your hard work and engagement towards your passion. So cheers to this celebration! 🎉🎊🥂♥️👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is such a great commemorative video for your venture on viral vegan food videos!!!! It gave nostalgia!!! I love when rie told you she wished she didnt see the carrot marinade🤣🤣
LMAO I know it was so so so fun for me to look back on all of these videos- what a journey it's been
I just have to tell you Merle, every time you say Bill Merle the science girl, I laugh hysterically and it makes me so happy. 🤣😻
It's here to stay!
I actually made the banana peel one. It tasted really good, but you need at least three peels to make a substantial sandwich, which isn't realistic. Also, I could still taste the banana a little bit, which was weird.

The seitan vegan chicken *does* have nutritional value! Seitan has lots of protein
Great job Merle (:
fr seitan is SO worth it in nutrition and value.
This video was so funn to watch cause ive seen this series multiple times, and it brought back lots of old memories for me. Lots of love Merle
I still feel the same way when cooking with hot oil, Merle! 😂 meanwhile my dad is in the background telling me IT’S JUST OIL, SON!
And congrats on your button! 💙
Glad I'm not alone!
I think a ranking video on your own cooking is exactly what I needed, it's like the final boss of rankings
Congratulations on the milestone! Can't wait to see the channel continue to grow!
Thank you!!
I'm a long time follower and I love your vegan videos! Keep up the great work myrtle! We need more vegan food reviews!

Hibiscus is for tea or sorrel in my culture. When u said u had bags left over I said out loud “ Give them to meeee!” Lol it’s def a drink we make for holidays coming up
What is your culture? I enjoy learning about diverse cultures!
@@kelsey2333 Jamaican & British but I recently found out a lot of other cultures make sorrel and call it something else like Mexicans call it Jamaica pronounced (Ha- mic- a) 🤷🏾♀️
I actually have started using them for tea!
@@MerleONeal Good! It’s very good for u 💪🏾
Congrats on 100K!!!!!!!!
Congrats! I've been following you since day 1! Fun fact, I actually set something on fire in the microwave during the tofu skins video and needed to evacuate my house, but nevertheless, still love you and your videos!!
Thank you so much!!! hahah oh god glad you got out safe and sound who knew the Yuba could be so dangerous👻
I bet the shawarma one would be good with sliced tofu. Especially if you marinated it and froze it. The texture changes and becomes much meatier. I wanna try that now.
Do it!!!
The runny egg yolk out of tomatoes was the first video of yours I ever watched
Wow comin in HOT - that one holds a special place in my heart
"She's crispy and she's fatty" that is ME to a T! 😌
MERLE OMG i’ve been watching your content for a few weeks and i KNEW i recognised you from somewhere omgg
IT ALL CONNECTS
@@MerleONeal I WAS LIKE WHERE THE HELL- AND NOW I KNOWWWW what the hell i feel like i just found out one of my parents had a second family
I have the fried celery root for my Christmas dinner every year (since the traditional Christmas meal in Czech Republic is fried carp). So I cut it in the shape of a fish a deep fry it and have a vegan potato salad with it (also Czech tradition, but not vegen of course). :)
i made the popcorn chicken, and I agree, it's really good.
Bill Merle, the science gurl. That was funny. And I agree, it was pretty cool.
I think you should redo some of the recipes that you did in this video and give it a new twist. I love watching your videos. In a way, it makes me feel relax your aura is insane. Your fan from the Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
congratulations Merle!!!!
Love you Merle 💖❣️You and your videos, not only your vegan ones are so lovely and cheered me up through the pandemic 💖Keep being you❤Honorable mention to you and Aria’s relationship ❤
I'm so glad you could find some comfort in them
@@MerleONeal 🥺🥺🥺Love you lots🥺🥺🥺
Merle! Can you recreate some of those recipes and adjusting what you didn’t like about them ?? I would love to see what you would change
Great idea!!
You are the best Merle, congratulations ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations on the milestone
I've yet to try the rice paper bacon. It's on my to do list but I keep forgetting about it lol. Great ranking though. And congrats on the now 126k😀
Rice paper bacon? Which gulag have you voluntarily entered?
100% think it's worth trying (even try some with the tofu marinade from Gordon's recipe)
Can you rank vegan ranches next???
ok im catching up... i would be willing to face the kitchen to make those avocado brownies cause those look BOMB
Why am I just now realizing Merle has her own channel 😢 I guess now I just have more videos to get through 😂 also, CONGRATS ON 100K 🎉🎉🎉
THANKS JOSEPH happy you found us here :)
congratulatiooons you're one of my favorite youtubers EVER
Aw thank you so much!!
It could be a different avocado brownie, but Alvin (yep, that Alvin) made the avocado brownie and we (Tasty Brasil) tried too… and it was a no for me. It tasted like fish hahahahah
Let’s get you to one million subscribers! 🎉
Congratulation Merle!!
Thank you!!
Congratulations! Great video.
I've discovered you from the tomato egg yolk ! So glad I did !
Me too!!

🥺
Man I tried those "baby back ribs" recipe annnd it didn't turn out good for me. They were... they were gross. But I also was at the very beginning of my plant based journey and probably didn't do it right!
I'd love to see a video on retrying/improving the foods you rated badly
This is a great idea
Congrats, Merle!

Ooh, the seafood reminds me how much I miss smoked oysters. Are there any good recipes to try? 👀
I have been watching your videos for quite some time now, and I was shocked I wasn't even subscribed. Just hit the Subdcribe button. And I rarely follow people, but I am such a big fan of you. 😊
Thank you so much for the love and support
If you make hibiscus tea and then soak and rinse the hibiscus, it loses the tart taste.
Now i gotta try making a few of these
but which ones 👀
@@MerleONeal obviously the S & A‘s 😜
How does one rank perfection?
Ya mean steak & eggs? Difficult.. ice cream arriving tomorrow! Merle has a great sense of humour.
I actually really miss those videos but nonetheless love your content!
I have used the hibiscus mix quite regularly. Tortillas first, then I switched to a mix with mashed potatoes, as a gratin or individual turnovers. It works beautifully !
There goes Merl-tha Stewart! 😅
Enjoyable, although I’m triggered by the watermelon recipes. What happed to your eye though? Hope you’re okay.
What I don't get is it sounds like you don't make these recipes for yourself anymore. Are there any that remain in your normal rotation? What are the dishes that are worth exploring as a vegan outside of weird gimmicks?
are you and aria still together?
F should have been "this vegan has gone too far" to keep with the wording of the other videos. But so fun!!

HEHEHE WHERE IT BEGAN!
Bill Merle the Science Girl 💀💀
hehehe
Yass girl!
Can you rank vegan Cookies please?
The way i’ve seen all of these videos long ago💀
How come she doesn’t review the way Aria was flirting with her in these videos?! Especially in the egg yolk video
Merle I think you should open your own vegan restaurant
Aw thank you
Bill Merle The Science Girl 🧪🤩
You know it, bb!x
With all the love in my heart, those are trumpet mushrooms-not oyster my mushrooms
They actually go by the same name! King Oyster Mushroom and Trumpet mushrooms - I just didn't say the "king" part haha
Would you do a collab with Tabitha Brown again? I would love to see you in a video with her again
I would LOVE to
So, I realize I have watched all of those videos HHHHHH
A real one!!
That was a decent Cher
i dont recognise those backgrounds, are you an ex BuzzFeed personality?
Still work for BuzzFeed! These videos aired on Goodful (their wellness youtube brand)
@@MerleONeal ah, not heard of that, is that a new one or a rebrand of one of their older channels?
Honestly I don't even like grapefruit when it's the part your supposed to eat lol
😂
Yuba rocks!
