I find it interesting, not just how something is made but, how much goes into making the machines to make something. I mean, the engineering to come up with a machine to do all this is something I find just as fascinating.
That's why I love this series. Every episode is either an ordinary product produced by fantastic machines, or a fabulous product produced by ordinary people. Sometimes the product, and the machinery, are both mind-boggling. Now if they would just stop misidentifying machines, and mispronouncing common words, the series would be near-perfect.
Yeah, but there are some episodes that are hillarious too. The two that comes to my mind is the shuttlecocks episode with the most braindead work of all time kinda and I think it was the matches episodes where they use a clothes iron just taped to a pole to level out the wood or something.
I love how we see thousands of dollars in machinery, but the last shot at 4:50 is of what is obviously a uneven piece of cardboard someone just stuck there so the candy doesn't fall off the belt.
It was early 90s... I was a stupid teenager in his holidays. Not knowing, what my life would be. A head full of bullshit. It was 3 A.M. one hot summer night, i was watching TV. On one Channel this video started... this melody started, with these pictures, these lines, these words i never heard before. I still don't know, what it did to me. I started crying like a child, it gave me kind of a feeling that my youth will be over soon and a new chapter of life will start. I still remember so many years later, like it was yesterday. Now, today, when I go back to this moment nearly 30 years ago, all the words in this video make more sense then ever. Thank you for being with me all those years on my way from a child to a father...
I still remember when we were young my brother used to bite off the mint part and give me the chocolate part. We only get to eat candy back then when my aunt visits home from abroad, so we share candyin equal parts in order to taste each of it. We surely were very poor. Now that I'm older, I'll make sure my chilldren get to taste every kind of candy they want (in moderation, of course).
For a true inspiration, go to a major Krispy Kreme bakery. From flour to mouth, you can watch the whole process. - If you don't have too many doughnuts and too much coffee. I had the chance to sit in the one in atlanta in 1976.. Fascinating.
I like how they keep putting the white stuff through multiple machines for no discernible reason, forming it into a slightly different shape, only to smush it back together.
I actually clicked on this knowing it was the legit version, but still did a double take in the first 30 seconds because I was subconsciously waiting for the suddenly-too-loud *_"SWEETEST"_* delivery.
I'm subscribed to this channel for god knows how long, i'm always looking for something interesting to watch, yet i still wish youtube would recommend me this more often. As in, anywhere above 0.
I worked in a place like this for a couple months as a teenager, it smelled awful. There was a constant strong, almost chemical mint scent that permeated absolutely everything, got sick of smelling it within a couple days and I love mint.
Was just going to mention that. Looks like a hair or smudge of oil.... I'm sure there will be all sorts of crap that ends up in our food as theres no way that entire production run is kept spotlessly clean. At the very least there must be a lot of dust that ends up in the sweets. Hopefully the factory roof isn't made of asbestos like a lot are.
I couldn’t care less about most of the products that end up in this series but I can’t resist not watching them. Like why do I feel the urge to know how old people lollies are made!
Making hard candy has quite a long history of mechanization, when steam power became a thing someone quickly used it to wrangle some sugar. Before that handcranked presses were used to make candy drops. Even when hot that stuff is tough, really hard to mix, knead and form, it's pretty natural to reach for some sort of mechanical leverage when trying to do it.
One of the last things I brought out of Woolworths UK before they shut down, was my favourite pick and mix item, a bag of their chocolate mints, from the pick and mix counter.🍫😍😋😔
God...I worked at a pill bottling place and even keeping those machines up and running well sucked. This show makes it sound so easy to make these objects...I wish they would show everything necessary but I know they don’t have time

I highly agree, hows its made is the only reason why i have a degree in engineering lol
Yes! Learn the why as well as the how. The machines are the important thing here.
Facts
I love how we see thousands of dollars in machinery, but the last shot at 4:50 is of what is obviously a uneven piece of cardboard someone just stuck there so the candy doesn't fall off the belt.
we have cardboard in our tomra machine, this is fine
If it works why waste money just for the sake of vanity?
That's what happens in space engineers lol, id make this massive insane ship and end up having to tack on repairs and simplify parts
I work for a billion dollar engine plant. We hold a lot of stuff together with zipties and a dream. If it works it works.
Yep that's industry for you
i want an episode that follows the film and production teams putting a segment of this show together so we can have How It's Made: How It's made
Yes, please!
And then, How It's Actually Made: How It's Made
That's the kind of paradox that would cause a tear in the space time continuum.
Lol❤️
1:19 I legit thought the arms were gonna high five! lol
Hahaha.. Yep, there was no other reason why they had to go that high up again.
Lol i thought they were gonna high five too
I was hoping they were going to high five but they didn’t, I’m sad now it has ruined the rest of the video for me
SIKE
lol same here
Every time I find the original videos in my recommendations, I forget that these are the actual narrators playing it straight.
same
I was curious about all the weird steps, so I decided to see how it's actually made.
I almost skipped this video and then was like ...wait a minute just how in the hell are mint chocolates made?!!
👍
Same
that's how it happens, y'see
Yes
Same here lol
I literally LOVE this show SOO MUCH!
Me and my dad a few years ago would just bing watch these LOL🧍🏻♀️
👍

This was so heart warming 💕
Can’t wait for Huggbees to tackle this one
I’m gonna touch the chocolate powder
Wait? Have he made a parody of it already?
Congratulations he just did
Wait until you learn what's in the 'Jizzm bucket.'
Lol I saw his before this one

3:55 look how the mints line up perfectly
I really wish they would talk about some of the automation and machine infrastructure used to accomplish this. That would be truly educational.

They did, at one point. It was just a bit, though, not the entire episode
They have to be careful because for most manufacturers at least part of their process is a trade secret.
@@michaelnorris6365 I can agree. To this day at krispy kreme in wisconsin you can see all the different machines that make donuts
Big mint candy tube!
BIG MINT CANDY TUBE!
I like how they keep putting the white stuff through multiple machines for no discernible reason, forming it into a slightly different shape, only to smush it back together.
They really failed to explain that the candy pulling is necessary to add thousands of tiny air bubbles to improve the texture
It’s to add air to it, like making taffy
Its because its fun for the machines
It's originally clear but the more you pull the clear candy The whiter it will get
@@albinalteborn 😂
"chocolate filled mint tube" is my favorite sentence this week. they could have stopped there and sliced bars of that for me
There's a whole factory dedicated to making candy for old people. I love that.
You young whippersnappers! Get off my lawn!
"Big Mint Candy Tube". If that isn't a name for a band, then I don't know what is.
For a moment I tought this was How it's actually made and I've been here, waiting for a pun that didn't come
Same
I actually clicked on this knowing it was the legit version, but still did a double take in the first 30 seconds because I was subconsciously waiting for the suddenly-too-loud *_"SWEETEST"_* delivery.
These candies might taste great, but they are not beautiful to look at like say an Andes mint choco sandwich. Still a nice vid on how it's made
If you watch hercules candy videos you can appreciate the process even more.

Very amazing that making candy now a days is basically machines. Wonders never end.. Love a good chocolate mint..
Pls watch making candy canes..
But is it chocolate or mint or both? I wish there was an email address I could send pictures of Filling machines to in order to get an answer!
Probably smells amazing in there
I worked in a place like this for a couple months as a teenager, it smelled awful. There was a constant strong, almost chemical mint scent that permeated absolutely everything, got sick of smelling it within a couple days and I love mint.
@@hussbilbs mmmm, chemicals
Chemicals
Maybe on opposite day.
I am always so amaze of how these machines does 🖤
So relaxing to watch these
The technology used to make these mints is truly amazing. But after seeing this video, I’d rather have the handmade Hercules Candies any day.
The machines that make them are amazing
3:05 Anyone else see the eyelash going into the candy?
Was just going to mention that. Looks like a hair or smudge of oil.... I'm sure there will be all sorts of crap that ends up in our food as theres no way that entire production run is kept spotlessly clean.

I love chocolate mint stuff, and I've never seen these lol
Here in Philippines we have "Dynamite" and its my favorite mint chocolate candy❤️
must be exploding in flavor
is it a chocolate, a mint, a chocolate mint, or neither? is it made with rinsing AND filling machines?
No, are you insigne or what?
Of course is a toy
1:17
Anyone else see it and groan because it’s so satisfying? 😂😂
3:50 I'm surprised no one has made a joke yet for "me in the bathroom" lol
How it's made is best of all 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😇😇😇🎆🎆🎆🎆🌄🌄🌄🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧🌠🌠🌠🌠
but who makes the machines that make all this stuff? honest question. like at 4:07, how in the world did someone design that thing?
The spreader was my favorite part, shooting out something that didn't resemble candy/food in the least bit.
👍👍
I couldn’t care less about most of the products that end up in this series but I can’t resist not watching them. Like why do I feel the urge to know how old people lollies are made!
Thanks for helping me do my project =)
Thanks for filling up our world with more plastic
What if you saw one of those workers just take a huge bite out of the candy as it was rolling around the tube? CHOMP!😂
I bet it smells amazing in that factory.
Love how it’s made
oh my days me and my brother use to watch this years ago in the morning before school lmao
The engineering is really impressive. For a chocolate mint.
Making hard candy has quite a long history of mechanization, when steam power became a thing someone quickly used it to wrangle some sugar. Before that handcranked presses were used to make candy drops. Even when hot that stuff is tough, really hard to mix, knead and form, it's pretty natural to reach for some sort of mechanical leverage when trying to do it.

this candy is locked away for hate crimes
This was very interesting. Thank you for sharing it ♥♥♥
This show seems like it's made by aliens for other aliens.
Are these machines custom made specifically for making these? Especially the ones in the beginning stages?
2:59 wouldn't mind one of these big slabs
My grandma used to give us these. Nice.
Makes you wonder just how clean all that machinery is....
Likely extremely clean.
Yeah always someone neg
Yum 🙌 my fav kinda candy 😎👍
Big mint candy tube
Love these machines.
Yes it tastes good together I know that it's really good to 😊
my trust issues are so bad that i thought this was made by huggbees
Today on how it’s made quarantine edition facemask,sanitizer and toilet paper and sanitizing wipes
namjoon would have a conniption fit watching this.
Omg his hate for mint chocolate is so funny lol
“And that’s how you make a plumbus.”
One of the last things I brought out of Woolworths UK before they shut down, was my favourite pick and mix item, a bag of their chocolate mints, from the pick and mix counter.🍫😍😋😔
I like the ones they give at Olive Garden!
I even don't like the flavor of mint but I feel I want some of these candy 😁
It’s so satisfying
imagine how much candy they'll need in a huge market with huge population similar to China or India, fascinating manufacturing process 👍
How many times are they going to roll out that candy?
wow no idea so much goes into such a small piece of candy.
Eagerly waiting for episode that
How it's made: babies
What?! Are you okay? :)
@@spencercrook1373 fine
@@ramarajan9226 lol you replied to me at like 3 pm xD
Wat do u mean?
That episode is .. 90% of the world wide web.
that must be the best smelling factory in all the land 😍🤤
That weight machine is almost every snack company uses same one.
At 1:40, the worker is called an employee, and at 2:58, the employee is called a worker.
I like watching the show it interesting of things are made
God...I worked at a pill bottling place and even keeping those machines up and running well sucked. This show makes it sound so easy to make these objects...I wish they would show everything necessary but I know they don’t have time
finally some good image quality
Pl make video on how they make multicolored toothpaste
Where were the rinsing and filling machines?
After Eight is my guilty pleasure!
You’ll never know how this comment got so many likes
That you never heard of in the us fo me at least
Right
Nice name
It's probably its one of those "barely" companies that paid the show for the advertising.
@James Rogers I'm right there with you, used to can our own fruit and vegetables when I was kid. You can still get Kerr canning jars, but they're used more for crafting anymore.
For a second I thought i was watching Hugbees video cause I've watched like all of his videos but i guess youtubes algorithm thought I'd like this
If you haven’t seen it already, he’s just done this one.
Is this a filling machine?
I watch one of these every time I think MY job is boring.
Great job 👌
This is ant heaven.
this video induced labor in me and now i'm dadi
(Looking at an After Eight, confused) yes... Is very nice. But do you plan at any point to show the making of an actual chocolate mint?
How It's Made : the OG ASMR.
Very interesting
Do More videos on Food products 😉
This is an Ellie Spectacular waiting to happen. R-r-r-r-rope. And now you know the Pope.
I just realized I haven't seen a chocolate mint like this in a store in an eternity. Anyone know any brands I can look for
on amazon try marianne
Completely random fact:
Carrots were originally purple.
oh :0
Why are you everywhere?
So what, we selectively bred them to be orange?
Give the reason too wtf
Maybe orange carrots had more nutrition?
Nowhere does it explain if it’s chocolate or mint or both. How It’s Made needs to provide me an email to elaborate for us.
is this in the uk or something ?
Pretty much the same process for candy canes.
I love chocolate mints.
WOOHOOO BIG MINT CANDY TUBE
Mint and chocolate is the best combination of flavor
change my mind
Nookie and Kahlua
@@michaelnorris6365 what?
I'm not clear on if this is chocolate, mint, mint chocolate, or chocolate mint, can anyone help clear this up for me?
It's a filling machine :)
I used to eat these i wonder y they stopped making them
