Heyyyyy! As you can see, we had a sponsor today! We will be occasionally taking on sponsorships so that we can afford to buy all this really important stuff for our videos. Like tuna and spaghetti hoops….and Roberts breast plate. But what we will never do….is pay Marcus…maybe Ashton. We’ll see. They do it for fun and experience
@thewelshtwins with all the amazing behind the scenes things Ashton and yes, even Marcus do, they deserve a raise! Keep the sponsorships coming gentlemen!
We didn’t want to tell you this way but Roberts breast plate deflated. So until we buy a new one, Robert may not be appearing in a dress 🥲 until further notice
@@thewelshtwinsI am here to pay my respects to the Breast Plate the First. It will be sadly missed 😢 and your next will have large….shoes?bras? dresses?….to fill, but will will give it all of our support.
@@sclub6414I feel like this was the second one. How these boys get through them so quickly I don’t know. I think some serious questions need to be asked.
@@katie9735 this entire menu is like my food nightmare. I was canned tuna and mayonnaise and jelly texture. You’re so brave to actually taste all of these things. The last frame is what sold this whole video.
Right, Marcus’s mind set is “I can’t listen to this, no one else wants to hear this…” but we’re all like “um, but Marcus, can we get those clips please???”
The interesting thing about these recipes is the context in which they were made. Non-exhaustively: Gelatin was something people did before the 1950s to help preserve food but it took a lot of work in the kitchen. Powdered gelatin in the 1950s was game changing because it completely removed all of the extra steps needed to make gelatin foods. One could also say there was this unconscious sense that this was “futuristic food”. It’s an old technique but now it’s widely available and easy to do thanks to a “breakthrough” in cooking science. It was neat, it was almost futuristic in a sense. There’s also the fact that fridges became widely produced and purchased, so that doubled the shelf life of perishable foods. Something that was once so difficult to do was now easy as pie, cheap, and convenient, and every housewife showed off gelatin in their dinner parties (though the average recipe was far more palatable than spaghetti-o’s). The reason for the weird recipes is the result of what happens when any new thing hits the market: People want to push the boundaries of taste (both flavor and fashion) to see what can be done. No one liked the super freaky recipes.
To be fair if I was a housewife in the 50s I’d have given everyone the worst jello food out there on purpose 😭 It does not sound like it was a good (or even tolerable given what they were being prescribed) time for most of them! Edit for spelling
James' look of disgust, eye roll & walk off screen as Robert continually says "Gravestone queen, onion queen, slice queen" had me laughing so hard!! 😂🖤💜🤣
Robert is such a supportive Sous Chef to Head Chef 'Onion Fingers' James ... "Do that onion Queen, yas Queen, grate that onion Queen, watch your fingers onion Queen" and we love it 🖤💜
Ashtonnnnnnn, please please pleaseeeee start doing the subtitles again 🙏🏻🙏🏻😫PLEASEEEE 🙏🏻 you were so funny In them and they added so much of an added layer of comedy to the videos. It’s not the same without your captions 😭 I’m beggin youuuuuu ❤
I guess orginal post never had this experience but it does happen in some places in America especially here in California so in replacement of fries you can order cottage cheese if the place has it available and or you can do a tiny bowl of fruits or else yogurt @@jlaw651
My great grandma had sooooo many of these jello recipe books I could hardly look at them 🤮 I actually live about half an hour drive from where Jello was invented, they have a Jello museum!
This makes me so glad I was raised in the south on soul food. The only time I had to see the gelatin monstrosities was at church events, where there was usually a dozen different kinds of ambrosia 🤮 or those weird canned pears filled with mayo and cheese with a cherry on top.
I thought for sure you guys would do the ubiquitous Ambrosia salad. The monstrosity that every grandma and great aunt would make for every family get together in the US.
so for a while i thought that the memories i had of a weird salad dessert concoction from my childhood must be fake. later in life i realized ambrosia salad is real and was kind of shocked
When everything was ready, it reminded my of my gradma's dishes. Clearly she kept the 50s cooking in her. My mother never used to cook this kind of stuff, thankfully. During my childhood, during the 80s, I saw lots of cold gellatineous stuff like that. I didn't realize I until now that it's something we don't see around anymore
As someone who doesn’t like jelly in the first place, these all look horrific, BUT the aesthetics are there. The shot of all the dishes on the pink tablecloth look like something from a Women’s Weekly magazine from the 50s and I love it.
i tried hello fresh before they started sponsoring people online. i legitimately really enjoy it. there are a few recipes that my mother has kept for years and reuses all the time because they are so good.
Definitely a thing in the Midwestern US in the 50s, 60s and 70s. Jello combined w/fruit, cottage cheese, cream cheese, veggies etc... All sorts of odd church cookbook "salads", molded and otherwise.
I’ve learned so much today. Most importantly, the proper way to say “Worcestershire sauce.” I remember growing up and going to church functions where jello with fruit or vegetables in it was served all the time. I am still traumatized. Not my thing.
I remember in the late 80's or early 90's there was a song written by a guy from Utah about the infamous "Mormon Green Jell-O" 🤣😂 It was HILARIOUS!!! I grew up in Idaho & who didn't have a relative that made Jell-O salad for every get together! 🤠
O this brings back memories. My gma loved to make green lime jello concoctions from the 50s. She was still doing this when i was growing up in the 90s. Most were actually kinda good. Lol.
Onion or any strong scent on the hands tip: Use a stainless steel spoon and rub it against your skin under cold water. They make soap shaped stainless steel bars for the kitchen, too. I've had the same one I got on Amazon for 10+ years.
4:42 I loved how he was playing with the jelly mold hole🎉 and the '50s was about 74 years ago 22:13 and Vienna sausages are actually amazing, tasty right out the can❤
American baker here to help with stupid measurments: Get a measureing cup SET! measureing cups come in sizes 1/4 1/3, 1/2 cups and 1 cup (there can be more but those are the required ones). You get them in a set similar to measuring spoons and then can easily measure smaller volumws without having to guestimate a half full cup.
As an American, it is so fun to watch two people who 1) have no idea about American measurement and 2) have no idea how to even cook using British measurements ARGUE about measurements, complain about “the cup” (I quote “oh no, not cups!” -Robert) and continually say JELLO (in the strongest American James can muster) This was the highlight of my day. ❤
Welsh twins are looking SO HEALTHY thesse days!!! Its very noticable. Are you guys working out or eating greener or something?? Skin glowing and looking fit!! Love it!! Well done babes! Love this channel! Sending xoxox from FL 😍❤
Good evening lads. Congrats on your cooking adventure and your success! 😂🥳 There were two persons behind you so I hope they were friendly. Have a lovely evening. 🥸😝🥰
Can you imagine these 2 on Hell’s Kitchen? 😂. Would make my day. As long as Gordon doesn’t make them cry. I think we need to petition for a comedy version of Hell’s Kitchen. I’m sure Ashton has chef’s whites & a suitable Gordon wig in her large dress-up box.
Oh that was hilarious as well as being nostalgic. What household from the 70s did not have a tuna fish mold. I respect you guys for trying all of them, because we could clearly see that at least one was going to be shite 😅

This was a missed opportunity for Robert to dress up as a 1950’s and housewife and wear his ✨Bosom✨
We didn’t want to tell you this way but Roberts breast plate deflated. So until we buy a new one, Robert may not be appearing in a dress 🥲 until further notice

Marcus sorely underestimates how much we can bear listening to the twins talking over themselves.😅
😂😂😂 it makes him so angry
i feel like im interrupting something
Pleasee im sorry i misread the twins as the twinks and i was likeee i beg your finest pardon!?!! 😭💀💀
@@Greeeenmoss Rightfully so and I would never! 🥰
Right, Marcus’s mind set is “I can’t listen to this, no one else wants to hear this…” but we’re all like “um, but Marcus, can we get those clips please???”
Please do a Christmas cooking special 💜🖤
I think we have one planned 🤔
@thewelshtwins yay! I really hope so~~~

every time one of yalls say "skibidi toilet rizz" as a non-sequitor its the funniest thing idk why

Edit for spelling
I am 1000% sure Mrs Crocombe shrew shade at powdered gelatin in a video not too long ago, so it must've been available in the late 1800s.
Great analysis
Realised the spaghetti cervix thing was reminding me of those “Hey! We set this stuff into a block of acrylic because… we can” videos
James' look of disgust, eye roll & walk off screen as Robert continually says "Gravestone queen, onion queen, slice queen" had me laughing so hard!! 😂🖤💜🤣
I love watching Ashton in the background reflection. She’s the best director! ❤
Eew.. that sounds so creepy🤣
@@MNK90-m1z awww it’s not meant to be creepy! I just thought it was cute how you could see her the whole time in the reflection
James' face while Robert reads the recipe is gold 22:40
😂😂😂 " Let it bloom" reminds me of schitts creek "fold it in"
I kept thinking of Schitt’s Creek every time they said “let it bloom”!
Omg absolutely accurate hahaah
Robert is such a supportive Sous Chef to Head Chef 'Onion Fingers' James ... "Do that onion Queen, yas Queen, grate that onion Queen, watch your fingers onion Queen" and we love it 🖤💜
That ending deserves an award😂

There might’ve been a good reason for the change that I don’t know but yes! They were great!!!
I second this, we need your subtitles, Ashton!
@@EmL-kg5gn I'm guessing the amount of work. It takes soo much time to do them. And especially now that she's got her own channel to work on.
@@SlothDaan Oh I didn’t realise that! That’s so exciting for her!!!
As an American I'd like to refute the "cottage cheese in place of fries" claim, Robert. Our country's in enough turmoil without these allegations!
lol. Ain’t that the truth
LOL. You arent' wrong about the turmoil.
I have a vague childhood memory of my mom doing this in restaurants in the 80s. I would never have remembered this if not for Robert.
I guess orginal post never had this experience but it does happen in some places in America especially here in California so in replacement of fries you can order cottage cheese if the place has it available and or you can do a tiny bowl of fruits or else yogurt @@jlaw651

please let ashton out of the dungeon to do the captions again 😭💕
That was definitely the best ending to put on this video 😂 no commentary or outro, just faces
You are my favourite trad-wives ❤❤❤
Ofcourse Robert found a MooDeng shirt before anyone.😅
Jello!!??
The Holidays came early for us this year!🧡❤️💚🧡❤️💚🧡❤️💚🧡💚❤️🧡💚❤️
The American accent when you say Jell-o is perfection.
I thought for sure you guys would do the ubiquitous Ambrosia salad. The monstrosity that every grandma and great aunt would make for every family get together in the US.

@@thewelshtwinswell... I do it too... 😅😊
Lemon juice helps get rid of the smell 😂😂
Welsh Twin cooking videos are my thunder blanket
Hello Fresh is a union buster ✨️
They also don't pay for guaranteed one day delivery, so your (now not fresh at all) delivery often arrives several days late.
OMG!!! The spaghetti hoops one!!! James' face!!! 😒😒😒 I am dying!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 xxxxxxx
It tastes exactly how you’d expect 🥲
It looked spookily like a Halloween prop!
The only creators that can make me belly laugh is The Welsh Twins. 😭😂 like literally lol
they make me snort
Very impressive jelly skills. I think I'll be hiring The Welsh Twins to cater my next birthday party 😂
We’ll bring our jello recipe book
@@thewelshtwins good idea then we can all be jello/jelly masters.

You two are such a Hoot together. I love seeing more of your personalities coming out when you are both together.
It’s giving that scene in the Grinch where they force feed him weird jelly desserts
Honestly the Welsh twins cooking show is my happy place ❤
The ending shot of their faces had me rolling. 😂
Not knowing whose memory you are remembering is a new thing I just witnessed. Is this a twin thing I'm unaware of? 😂
I love watching y’all do weird shit! And happy to watch with sponsors. I wouldn’t manage to feed myself without hello fresh.
Aw I always tell my dogs their doing good for hydrating when they drink. Glad I'm not the only weirdo

A1 is actually made of oranges and raisins. Think that, THEN eat it and it’s impossible to miss the taste.
Next stop; Masterchef for James & Robert 😂👌
Great British bake off me thinks
I adore Robert’s moo deng shirt! MOO DENGGGGGGG
These sound absolutely disgusting, and I'm here for it! Love you all!!!❤❤❤

You guys going through the whole hello fresh recipe is actually so adorable
never thought i’d see the day we got a welsh twins x hello fresh ad :,) this might be the one that convinces me lolol
Haha for real this time! Honestly try it. We hate cooking but this was super easy and no stressy
I’ve tried it and it’s very good. I can’t be doing with all the subscription guff but I would recommend them. The food was delicious 🤤
ugh you all have convinced me. my partner and i ordered our first box. the deal was too good to pass up
I’m still not convinced Ashton didn’t help cook
i tried hello fresh before they started sponsoring people online. i legitimately really enjoy it. there are a few recipes that my mother has kept for years and reuses all the time because they are so good.
You and your team did such a good job on this one! Your dishes turned out beautiful!
Oh how I look forward to Sunday night Welsh twins video
I love incidental moments of Ashton. 👍😊
that ending screamed without uttering a sound 😂
The constant singing of random lines from Jade's 'Angel of My Dreams' was a mood
Oh my god - the look on your faces with the spaghetti-o jello! Made me laugh out loud! Thank you for brightening my Sunday!!😊
I effing adore Robert's shirt, of course he loves Moo Deng 😆💜
The Welsh Twins - A Thanksgiving Miracle! 💜🖤
Definitely a thing in the Midwestern US in the 50s, 60s and 70s.
