Not necessarily because the mini games translated that well to cooking skills, but because it introduced me to a lot of new dishes my parents didn’t cook, which inspired me to learn to cook them my self.
I've got a really simalar story to that. As a kid I had a Tamagotchi DS game that had you run all these different shops and each shop was a minigame. My favourite one was the takoyaki shop where you'd make the amount of takoyaki requested by the customer. A few years ago something reminded me of that game and it caused me to look up a recipe for it. It ended up making me really interested in japanese cuisine as a whole, especially their street food and there's tons of recipies I wanna try. I still haven't made takoyaki yet because you need a special pan for it and I haven't got one yet but one day I will.

the fear of failure or being seen as incompetent being a barrier to learning to cook is so real. i live with my parents and theyre always in my business so 💀
aw that’s such a shame, i hope one day you can overcome your fear and learn to cook, i personally prefer baking over cooking as i can find it relaxing, i would recommend some very simple cookies if you ever want to start, even if your parents are all over your business i hope they would at least enjoy the cookies!
@@cookiesandpudding8485 well, i know that, and i have no problem with not being good at something at first, that's not really the problem. the problem is i don't want my parents to know im trying to cook because they'll make a big deal about it because they always do when i do anything different than what i usually do and it's suffocating and stressful.
Hmm that sounds horrible :( I learned to cook from my grandma and mom. The easiest recipes in my eyes are the ones that go: Meat- Onions- Rest of vegetables- sauce- pasta or rice. (Like pasta or fried rice) Or just throw potatoes vegetables and meat with some oil and seasonings in the oven for half an hour, very easy and very delicious (you can look up online if cooking times differ). Also don’t be afraid to experiment :)
Honestly, I'm really glad that they emphasize not shaking the baby even if its super memeable. At least its memorable, might be the first exposure kids have to shaken baby syndrome.
when I had this game on the wii as a kid and I used to throw the baby because it was funny. So that was probably the main effect but at least it reminds you of the real life risks
It's a lot like how assassin's creed isn't really about teaching you actual history, it's more about just building an interest and appreciation for the subject that then encourages you to dive deeper into the real thing
@spudrina I've been learning to cook and adding veggies to my meals (I was raised vegetable-less so I need to learn how to prepare them in a way I like) and I've had no issue slicing and dicing stuff like peppers and onions solely because Cooking Mama taught me, and I immediately knew I'd probably like stir fried veggies because of it, too - and I was right.
@@purelysmetalnightcore if you have an oven (especially with a broiler drawer) it's a game changer. The basic prep for most veg people know is to boil it, but on a sheet pan with a couple shakes of olive oil and salt, then in the oven until it starts to turn a little black in places. Most people don't like broccoli because it gets gross when over-boiled, but it absolutely smacks if you roast it until it chars a bit. Also some things like snap or snow peas you put in the pot and as soon as the water hits a full rolling boil immediately take them off and rinse them in cold water or prep an icewater bath to dump them in (this is called blanching) and it results in nice crunchy and really vibrant green vegetables.
@@CircusFoxxo Thank you! My oven doesn't have a broiler drawer by my toaster oven/air fryer has a broiler setting so I will need to try that. I actually really like broccoli and have some veggies and salmon fillets ready to bake with olive oil and seasoning in a few days here on my next day off - I work really long shifts so I make super simple dinners on my work days.
@@purelysmetalnightcore Toaster oven will be the same thing in practice (high heat + relatively close to the heating element) it stays almost as crunchy as when it's raw but steams a little on the inside You can also use blackened seasoning or a mix like tony sacherie You can also move the rack in an oven and do "sheet pan fajitas", it would probably work out in a toaster oven / air fryer unit (AF being just a convection oven p much)
Ok but the paper airplane you can make with the Crafting Mama instructions is the GOAT. Crafting Mama helped me vicariously live out some of my crafty dreams without having to buy hundreds of dollars worth of sewing supplies, candle making supplies, or basic woodworking stuff.
The "burned" look on the pizza at 16:20 is likely due to using pre-shredded mozz. It has an anti-caking agent in it which prevents clumping in the bag. It'll taste fine, but it leads to weird, mostly aesthetic "defects" like that.
I'd argue it tastes less flavorful too since it has that added starch, and it messes with the texture as it prevents it from melting together as well. but it is serviceable if you don't want to grate your own cheese
As someone who grew up playing Cooking Mama I can confidently say it helped me learn to cook without me noticing. It also made me want to be around the kitchen when my mom cooks so I learned from watching over the years and now that I’m 20 I can confidently try to cook anything as long as there’s a video or recipe.
I had to google science papa bc this is the first im hearing of it as someone who grew up on cooking mama and I gotta say, science papa looks lit af. I wish I had that one as well, as a kid
Science Papa wasnt made by Majesco, but Activision. Apparently the developers of CM made a blog post or something like that in the voice of Mama saying this: "So you want some dirt on "Science Papa" to splash on your site? I'll shovel it. We dated briefly (when he had much better hair). And now he clearly wants a piece of the best-selling pie by associating himself with an incredibly successful, and I'll emphasize, happily married, woman. Frankly, he never appreciated my cooking and I grew weary of his tedious "experiments." You want real mind-bending science, go figure out how to make Toulouse Cassoulet for your next dinner party of 20 and let me know how it goes, Papa."
i loved these games as a kid and yet i was terrified of the fire eyes for some reason lmao. if anything it put the fear of god into me to do better, so i guess it worked. i respect her strategy.
Cooking Mama 2 was my introduction to the games, even though my sister and I had asked for the "3rd one". Our mom got us the second one and even still, it was great. Just wish you could skip the bonuses, they're so loud and I don't want them lmao
@@ninakatz7916 I started with the Wii version as a 10 year old and would kick my older and little brothers butts at it allll of the time! It was such a fun game. Cooking Mama 2 Dinner With Friends for my DS was such a blast also. I had such fear but so much fun.
Honestly the fire eyes didn't scare me much, just made me confused like "Why does she have fire in her eyes? Doesn't that hurt?". If anything I was more scared of the Mama dragon that pops up if you get a perfect on any step in Cooking Mama Cookoff lol
Seeing gardening mama sent me into absolute nostalgic shock, I remembered playing some kind of mama game as a kid but seeing those seeds blow away unlocked a core memory or something
The issue with the eggs was that eggs still cook after you take them out of the skillet, which means the trick isn't to take them out when you know they're done, but when you think they're *ABOUT* to be done.
Lol, i worked on cooking mama cookstar. You got the story pretty much right - except it was the publishers, not the developers that released it. The developers (the team i was on) had zero say and were basically just told "ship it now." It was wild. Im very sorry about the motion controls.
@@doritostrawberries Ya, im being real. Im in the credits under Nick. I dont really have many juicy details though. Working on that game helped me get out of a terrible apartment and into a better gig.
@DrUSB I think it's pretty funny. We obv had little time to optimize, + it was Unity3d game engine. Using nintendo switches to mine bitcoin is a hilarious concept. I'm kinda glad a mystery like that got attached to this game, because the real story is always less interesting.
@@nbarber20 even though it wasn’t true for this game, what are the chances that a well known Nintendo game like cooking mama could have cryptocurrency mining snuck into it, if at all possible? Are there any precautions that go into preventing that sorta thing? I assume it’d be the same as however devs make sure no one snuck a virus into the code or smth.
I learned to cook simple dishes from a young age by binge playing cooking mama on my pink DS. It even gave me some advice that stuck with me until today! I love cooking and Mama was a great inspiration lol
Anything that gets you cooking makes you a much better cook! It’s a really rewarding skill to work on, and there’s always more to learn even for experts
i never realized i had motherly instinct until eddy failed to use a can opener. my desire to teach these grown men how to feed themselves properly is so overwhelming

@BronzedBeast I have severe social anxiety and am only now able to get my driver's license in my mid-20s. You never know what people are going through.
And I thought I was bad with cooking... Though in all fairness I never had crab meat. That being said, it's Saturday I should cook something instead of getting take out
He was actually using it correctly you can’t reclose a can so with an automatic can opener (most modern ones) they are basically designed to chop the entire top off to prevent you from having to risk cutting your hands the other way from prying it open But I understand if it’s an uno “thanks for the cards we’ll take it from here” i think I learned it from hank green or generally the internet
I was the demographic for this and I played all the OG games. Do I love cooking now? YES 😌 I also love gardening and crafting so I think they succeeded in making me a well rounded adult lol
I loved the crafting one! I actually used to play that or Cooking Mama 2 whenever I had a mental breakdown doing schoolwork in the middle of the night for years after lol. It probably did help me gain my masters of science tbh. Thanks, Mama
The ad for this video was for the mobile game Cooking mama: let’s cook and I sat through it way longer than I should have thinking it was part of the main video
in cooking mama 3's defense, my shopping experiences also generally consist of avoiding eye contact with people, so in that regard it's not too unrealistic.
When I was a kid, my first (and only) interaction with Cooking Mama was the PETA parody horror game. I spent my whole childhood thinking that was actually how all the games were
Yes! I thought I was going crazy when people were obsessing over Cooking Mama and called it wholesome when the horror version was the only one I’ve tried 😅
The worst part is I liked the horror version so much. It didn't scare me like Peta assumed. Cause I knew the difference between actual food preparation and silly cartoon gore.
I played SO MUCH Cooking Mama on DS it's like...insane. I wanted to have all the coins, all the clothes, all the recipes, and honestly, it's part of what drove me to take a cooking course. I intended to make it my career but working in a commercial kitchen is an absolute nightmare. BUT taking the class and graduating was never lost, I cook a lot at home and my partner also does and we have a great time making amazing food. Cooking Mama truly was an awakening to the world of food and I love it for doing that.
Holy guacamole I was not ready for the actual lack of cooking skills they had lol. You guys should ask an IRL cooking mama to coach you. That would be funny to watch
this made me want to cook with my sister when i go visit her these holidays, thank you for genuinely talking about the barrier of fear that makes it so hard to pick up a skill like cooking, seeing you both improve and then cook together was very nice :)
Cooking Mama did make me better at cooking personally! Bc even tho there’s no like traditional recipes, getting to understand what went into a meal at a young age was pretty cool
Congrats on learning how to cook. It can be embarrassing to start cooking at an old age, but it's really nice to see your dishes and build up your cooking book.
I remember when I was like 9 or 10 yrs old I played "cooking mama kills animals". A cooking mama game made by PETA I think? I stumbled on that game on a website called Y8, and I think the intent with this game is to disgust you of eating turkey (and any other animals I guess). Turns out it only made me fascinated with horror movie and anything gore in fiction
I can't remember where I played it. I think it was on FRIV if yall ever played that. It was the only game site at my school that wasn't blocked and we played the games on there all the time. There was this cursed game that was a Sakura dating simulator and if you failed to get any of the boys attention a freaking cutscene played here she gave Shikamaru a BJ and literally nothing was censored. This happened at school and the worst is he shot a lil bit out onto her cheek and she gave a smile. 😭 Like bruh those are kids in that game and we were kids. We didn't need to be seeing that!
okay but like. as a lover of cooking mama and also a teacher (tutor). from an educational standpoint it's such a good way of teaching kids how to follow instructions and some fine motor skills?! like that went completely over my head as a kid
@@KaiLucasZachary I more meant in the case of the different chopping and stirring bits, and the game is aimed at fairly young kids who probably are learning from it. Just because it's a game doesn't mean it can't be other things.
I genuinely didn't think anyone could fuck up scrambled eggs. Like they're what I make when I fuck up more than one dish in a row to remind myself how easy cooking is
As someone else who's trying to learn how to cook after years of my only "recipes" being burritos, omelettes, fried rice, and "order doordash", it's heartening to see 2 other dudes also trying to learn. Though granted, a little odder of a teacher.
I've long said that I legitimately learned some cooking skills from completing Cooking Mama 1-3 as a teen. It's nice to see someone backing me up that you can actually learn practical skills from playing these games.
Opening the can the wrong way is so relatable. My parents had one of those electric can openers for years. I was one of the few ppl in the house that could get the old thing to work. When I moved out I immediately did this my first time using a manual can opener after years, so embarrassing
It’s so not stupid that this helped you want to cook more or better, and it’s awesome to see you make the recipes in real life! Goes to show, it’s sometimes easier than we think to make something at home, and if there’s something you had once that you miss and want again, you can prolly find a copycat recipe online to try! Now I wanna play Cooking Mama!
Damn - cooking, baking, pastry-making, gardening, crafting, camping, babysitting... Is there anything Mama CAN'T do? Truly a girlboss (Papa, on the other hand, is a boy... What's the reverse of boss here? Boyunemployed?)
i cut my onions just like cooking mama taught me in 2006 :') it worked for 18 years but having my first line cooking job taught me a new fun way i love! learning is so fun every step of the way, this video made me happy and nostalgic, im excited to send it to me sister
for the scrambled eggs, the rule of thumb is the have the oil in the pan be hot enough so the egg instantly cook when it makes contact into the oil! With a layer of cooked egg at the bottom you can then twist it, stir it, whatever, so the liquid spills out over the cooked layer and gets cooked as well! You'd get some really fluffy eggs from it
If you salted your egg mix that explains why it became wet. The salt draws the moisture out of the eggs. The more you cook it, the more liquid comes out. Season at the end instead to avoid this. Theres a chance that the crab meat may be salted, eg if its preserved in brine. That salt may have done this. Cooking Mama likely used fresh crab meat in her recipe.
Might wanna strain the juice from the crab meat next time, fellas. Most canned meat you'll wanna do that. Good on you for developing a new skill though.
i always thought the shopping mini game was so odd and bizarre until i developed social anxiety and realized that the whole game is basically a social anxiety simulator

For this i dont recommend non stick pans because you cant get hot enough without disrupting the coating, if you have a stainless steel pan youre good to go
You heat up a pan really well
You can check if your pan is hot enough by throwing droplets of water on it
If the droplets form little beads, its hot enough
If the water form bubbly puddles, it needs to heat up more
When its hot enough, you can put in your neutral high smoke point oil and then your egg
Cover it because it splatters a lot and its gonna cook the top of the egg more so you wont get the snotty uncooked white
It cooks really fast so dont look away

It ended up making me really interested in japanese cuisine as a whole, especially their street food and there's tons of recipies I wanna try. I still haven't made takoyaki yet because you need a special pan for it and I haven't got one yet but one day I will.
she named her kids apple and strawberry? shes really dedicated to her craft
i mean, she DOES have a crafting mama game-
Apple is strange but “strawberry” is common name in Japanese (Ichigo)
@@Nakuke3 yes! "strawberry" is common but i still think their names are a cute reference to the cooking theme! 🍓🍎

It's hilarious that mama named her kids "Apple" and "Strawberry". Also, the heavy japanese accent just makes the experience better
I now understand why a decent size of creators are sponsored by Factor

@@KirbyCom apparently, HelloFresh is worse
@@danmakes2497idk how it is on the creator side but for consumers hf wasn’t too bad. I just did the trial like a few years ago. However, I don’t think it specified how much of each thing u used either
@@danmakes2497 I've used Hello Fresh, honestly don't have any issues with it. You're honestly better off getting the recipes that you like after a while and just buy the ingredients and make it yourself. Saves money since you can get a bigger portion for a fraction of the price
@@danmakes2497 they use monkey labor, sounds better in my book
the fear of failure or being seen as incompetent being a barrier to learning to cook is so real. i live with my parents and theyre always in my business so 💀
I hope you and whoever else is in this situation gets out of it as early as possible, with a healthy set of boundaries 👍
aw that’s such a shame, i hope one day you can overcome your fear and learn to cook, i personally prefer baking over cooking as i can find it relaxing, i would recommend some very simple cookies if you ever want to start, even if your parents are all over your business i hope they would at least enjoy the cookies!
The barrier of entry to being good at anything is being shit at first
@@cookiesandpudding8485 well, i know that, and i have no problem with not being good at something at first, that's not really the problem. the problem is i don't want my parents to know im trying to cook because they'll make a big deal about it because they always do when i do anything different than what i usually do and it's suffocating and stressful.
Hmm that sounds horrible :( I learned to cook from my grandma and mom. The easiest recipes in my eyes are the ones that go: Meat- Onions- Rest of vegetables- sauce- pasta or rice. (Like pasta or fried rice) Or just throw potatoes vegetables and meat with some oil and seasonings in the oven for half an hour, very easy and very delicious (you can look up online if cooking times differ). Also don’t be afraid to experiment :)
Honestly, I'm really glad that they emphasize not shaking the baby even if its super memeable. At least its memorable, might be the first exposure kids have to shaken baby syndrome.
when I had this game on the wii as a kid and I used to throw the baby because it was funny. So that was probably the main effect but at least it reminds you of the real life risks
it’s also one of the more likely situations with a child and their infant sibling
It's a lot like how assassin's creed isn't really about teaching you actual history, it's more about just building an interest and appreciation for the subject that then encourages you to dive deeper into the real thing
9:49 “you’re the directions” reminds me of when a doctor from a walk in clinic wrote “due to medical reasons”on my referral
no joke these games taught me how to stir fry really well lol. I am like 80% sure cooking mama had a major influence on my ability to cook decently
honestly the slicing and dicing really stuck with me since i was a kid lol
@spudrina I've been learning to cook and adding veggies to my meals (I was raised vegetable-less so I need to learn how to prepare them in a way I like) and I've had no issue slicing and dicing stuff like peppers and onions solely because Cooking Mama taught me, and I immediately knew I'd probably like stir fried veggies because of it, too - and I was right.
@@purelysmetalnightcore if you have an oven (especially with a broiler drawer) it's a game changer. The basic prep for most veg people know is to boil it, but on a sheet pan with a couple shakes of olive oil and salt, then in the oven until it starts to turn a little black in places. Most people don't like broccoli because it gets gross when over-boiled, but it absolutely smacks if you roast it until it chars a bit.
Also some things like snap or snow peas you put in the pot and as soon as the water hits a full rolling boil immediately take them off and rinse them in cold water or prep an icewater bath to dump them in (this is called blanching) and it results in nice crunchy and really vibrant green vegetables.
@@CircusFoxxo Thank you! My oven doesn't have a broiler drawer by my toaster oven/air fryer has a broiler setting so I will need to try that. I actually really like broccoli and have some veggies and salmon fillets ready to bake with olive oil and seasoning in a few days here on my next day off - I work really long shifts so I make super simple dinners on my work days.
@@purelysmetalnightcore Toaster oven will be the same thing in practice (high heat + relatively close to the heating element) it stays almost as crunchy as when it's raw but steams a little on the inside
You can also use blackened seasoning or a mix like tony sacherie
You can also move the rack in an oven and do "sheet pan fajitas", it would probably work out in a toaster oven / air fryer unit (AF being just a convection oven p much)
Ok but the paper airplane you can make with the Crafting Mama instructions is the GOAT. Crafting Mama helped me vicariously live out some of my crafty dreams without having to buy hundreds of dollars worth of sewing supplies, candle making supplies, or basic woodworking stuff.
HMMMM 👀 That sounds.... Worth a look.
The theme song for crafting mama is also a banger
The "burned" look on the pizza at 16:20 is likely due to using pre-shredded mozz. It has an anti-caking agent in it which prevents clumping in the bag. It'll taste fine, but it leads to weird, mostly aesthetic "defects" like that.
yea, it's better if you put it around the last minutes of baking
I'd argue it tastes less flavorful too since it has that added starch, and it messes with the texture as it prevents it from melting together as well. but it is serviceable if you don't want to grate your own cheese
He also used the wrong type of flour, pls use 00
Probably cause it was 480 degrees
@@anniemoss1402yeah i was gunna say, typical pizza cooking temp is like 425
as a kid I had a crush on cooking mama and to learn she is married has just broken my heart. Don't think I'll ever recover
As someone who grew up playing Cooking Mama I can confidently say it helped me learn to cook without me noticing. It also made me want to be around the kitchen when my mom cooks so I learned from watching over the years and now that I’m 20 I can confidently try to cook anything as long as there’s a video or recipe.
all the mama games but not a single mention of Science Papa. Truly this is my 1984
Science Papa was so good
I had to google science papa bc this is the first im hearing of it as someone who grew up on cooking mama and I gotta say, science papa looks lit af. I wish I had that one as well, as a kid
they are trying to silence science papa
Science Papa wasnt made by Majesco, but Activision. Apparently the developers of CM made a blog post or something like that in the voice of Mama saying this:
"So you want some dirt on "Science Papa" to splash on your site? I'll shovel it. We dated briefly (when he had much better hair). And now he clearly wants a piece of the best-selling pie by associating himself with an incredibly successful, and I'll emphasize, happily married, woman. Frankly, he never appreciated my cooking and I grew weary of his tedious "experiments." You want real mind-bending science, go figure out how to make Toulouse Cassoulet for your next dinner party of 20 and let me know how it goes, Papa."

Cooking Mama 2 was my introduction to the games, even though my sister and I had asked for the "3rd one". Our mom got us the second one and even still, it was great. Just wish you could skip the bonuses, they're so loud and I don't want them lmao
@@ninakatz7916 I started with the Wii version as a 10 year old and would kick my older and little brothers butts at it allll of the time! It was such a fun game. Cooking Mama 2 Dinner With Friends for my DS was such a blast also. I had such fear but so much fun.
Honestly the fire eyes didn't scare me much, just made me confused like "Why does she have fire in her eyes? Doesn't that hurt?". If anything I was more scared of the Mama dragon that pops up if you get a perfect on any step in Cooking Mama Cookoff lol
NGL the Fact that you guys actually dont know allot about cooking makes this even better and a more realistic experiment!!!

The issue with the eggs was that eggs still cook after you take them out of the skillet, which means the trick isn't to take them out when you know they're done, but when you think they're *ABOUT* to be done.
They also apparently didn't drain the crab meat

I loved the Cooking Mama games a lot! Even did a cosplay of her for a local anime con this summer. Long live Mama.
As a manager of a kitchen, I greatly appreciate the ending. It’s hard to succeed in a kitchen environment if you are afraid of failure.
Mama getting mad at you in the kitchen really adds a layer of realism to the game. You can get sad over your fake mom yelling at you in the kitchen
tbh, cooking mama was nicer then my real mom in the kitchen lol
Lol I am not usually to get mad, but mama getting mad, would make me mad. 😅
Lol, i worked on cooking mama cookstar. You got the story pretty much right - except it was the publishers, not the developers that released it. The developers (the team i was on) had zero say and were basically just told "ship it now."
It was wild. Im very sorry about the motion controls.
Deadass?
@@doritostrawberries Ya, im being real. Im in the credits under Nick.
I dont really have many juicy details though. Working on that game helped me get out of a terrible apartment and into a better gig.
What are your thoughts on the fact that the game was so poorly optimized that people thought it was mining bitcoin?
@DrUSB I think it's pretty funny. We obv had little time to optimize, + it was Unity3d game engine. Using nintendo switches to mine bitcoin is a hilarious concept. I'm kinda glad a mystery like that got attached to this game, because the real story is always less interesting.
@@nbarber20 even though it wasn’t true for this game, what are the chances that a well known Nintendo game like cooking mama could have cryptocurrency mining snuck into it, if at all possible? Are there any precautions that go into preventing that sorta thing? I assume it’d be the same as however devs make sure no one snuck a virus into the code or smth.
I learned to cook simple dishes from a young age by binge playing cooking mama on my pink DS. It even gave me some advice that stuck with me until today! I love cooking and Mama was a great inspiration lol
Anything that gets you cooking makes you a much better cook! It’s a really rewarding skill to work on, and there’s always more to learn even for experts
i never realized i had motherly instinct until eddy failed to use a can opener. my desire to teach these grown men how to feed themselves properly is so overwhelming

@@annaxin2104 upper middle class shit
He was actually using it correctly you can’t reclose a can so with an automatic can opener (most modern ones) they are basically designed to
chop the entire top off to prevent you from having to risk cutting your hands the other way from prying it open
But I understand if it’s an uno “thanks for the cards we’ll take it from here” i think I learned it from hank green or generally the internet
I was the demographic for this and I played all the OG games. Do I love cooking now? YES 😌 I also love gardening and crafting so I think they succeeded in making me a well rounded adult lol
so you're saying cooking mama carried society? very correct
I loved the crafting one! I actually used to play that or Cooking Mama 2 whenever I had a mental breakdown doing schoolwork in the middle of the night for years after lol. It probably did help me gain my masters of science tbh. Thanks, Mama
thank you cooking mama for creating a generation of master chefs
i still want that squid ink spaghetti
So true I have crafting mama gardening mama and most of the cooking mamas 😂🤣
Those are all my loves too. I’m sad I missed these games!
The ad for this video was for the mobile game Cooking mama: let’s cook and I sat through it way longer than I should have thinking it was part of the main video
learning how to cook together as brothers is so wholesome wtf, so happy for u both to learn how to cook different things together
in cooking mama 3's defense, my shopping experiences also generally consist of avoiding eye contact with people, so in that regard it's not too unrealistic.
"dont shake the baby" has been a joke in my house for so many years i was obsessed with babysitting mama when i was little
When I was a kid, my first (and only) interaction with Cooking Mama was the PETA parody horror game. I spent my whole childhood thinking that was actually how all the games were
Yes! I thought I was going crazy when people were obsessing over Cooking Mama and called it wholesome when the horror version was the only one I’ve tried 😅
im so glad this is a shared experience
The worst part is I liked the horror version so much. It didn't scare me like Peta assumed. Cause I knew the difference between actual food preparation and silly cartoon gore.
same! LMAO
Is this how I find out the horror version wasn't official 😭
I played SO MUCH Cooking Mama on DS it's like...insane. I wanted to have all the coins, all the clothes, all the recipes, and honestly, it's part of what drove me to take a cooking course. I intended to make it my career but working in a commercial kitchen is an absolute nightmare. BUT taking the class and graduating was never lost, I cook a lot at home and my partner also does and we have a great time making amazing food. Cooking Mama truly was an awakening to the world of food and I love it for doing that.
10:30 THAT'S PAPA ?????? NOOOOOOOOO 😭😭 i had a huge crush on him as a kid, mama, i swear i'm not a homewrecker
god it's so great to be the same age as another creator so that every niche video they make is something I have also been interested in my whole life
Holy guacamole I was not ready for the actual lack of cooking skills they had lol.

Congrats on learning how to cook. It can be embarrassing to start cooking at an old age, but it's really nice to see your dishes and build up your cooking book.
I remember when I was like 9 or 10 yrs old I played "cooking mama kills animals". A cooking mama game made by PETA I think? I stumbled on that game on a website called Y8, and I think the intent with this game is to disgust you of eating turkey (and any other animals I guess). Turns out it only made me fascinated with horror movie and anything gore in fiction
oh my god you just unlocked a memory I forgot about that
same my fixation on horror started young
I remember that and Y8. Rip flash games...
@@sleepyoteYou can still play them on Flashpoint and websites use emulators so those also work.
I can't remember where I played it. I think it was on FRIV if yall ever played that. It was the only game site at my school that wasn't blocked and we played the games on there all the time. There was this cursed game that was a Sakura dating simulator and if you failed to get any of the boys attention a freaking cutscene played here she gave Shikamaru a BJ and literally nothing was censored. This happened at school and the worst is he shot a lil bit out onto her cheek and she gave a smile. 😭 Like bruh those are kids in that game and we were kids. We didn't need to be seeing that!
okay but like. as a lover of cooking mama and also a teacher (tutor). from an educational standpoint it's such a good way of teaching kids how to follow instructions and some fine motor skills?! like that went completely over my head as a kid
You're not learning "fine motor skills" from tapping a screen any more than any other DS game teaches you fine motor skills.
@@KaiLucasZachary I more meant in the case of the different chopping and stirring bits, and the game is aimed at fairly young kids who probably are learning from it. Just because it's a game doesn't mean it can't be other things.

it's actually really sweet to see them cooking together at the end of the video
As someone else who's trying to learn how to cook after years of my only "recipes" being burritos, omelettes, fried rice, and "order doordash", it's heartening to see 2 other dudes also trying to learn. Though granted, a little odder of a teacher.
I've long said that I legitimately learned some cooking skills from completing Cooking Mama 1-3 as a teen. It's nice to see someone backing me up that you can actually learn practical skills from playing these games.
Opening the can the wrong way is so relatable. My parents had one of those electric can openers for years. I was one of the few ppl in the house that could get the old thing to work. When I moved out I immediately did this my first time using a manual can opener after years, so embarrassing
7:29 i gasped with glee when I saw tiny Eddy with the snail. That was super cool
eddy physically embodying the game sound effects at 18:49, mama truly had his soul there
The eggs were extra wet in the pan BECAUSE they were over cooked! I sat here watching in horror as he said he KEPT COOKING THEM LMAO
It’s so not stupid that this helped you want to cook more or better, and it’s awesome to see you make the recipes in real life! Goes to show, it’s sometimes easier than we think to make something at home, and if there’s something you had once that you miss and want again, you can prolly find a copycat recipe online to try! Now I wanna play Cooking Mama!

The way I was hoping you would review all the mama games when I learned about babysitting mama a few months ago. I love that you guys bought the baby
i cut my onions just like cooking mama taught me in 2006 :') it worked for 18 years but having my first line cooking job taught me a new fun way i love! learning is so fun every step of the way, this video made me happy and nostalgic, im excited to send it to me sister
for the scrambled eggs, the rule of thumb is the have the oil in the pan be hot enough so the egg instantly cook when it makes contact into the oil!
With a layer of cooked egg at the bottom you can then twist it, stir it, whatever, so the liquid spills out over the cooked layer and gets cooked as well! You'd get some really fluffy eggs from it
If you salted your egg mix that explains why it became wet. The salt draws the moisture out of the eggs. The more you cook it, the more liquid comes out. Season at the end instead to avoid this.
Theres a chance that the crab meat may be salted, eg if its preserved in brine. That salt may have done this. Cooking Mama likely used fresh crab meat in her recipe.
They didnt drain the crab it was all the crab juice 😭 they're killing me over here
Might wanna strain the juice from the crab meat next time, fellas. Most canned meat you'll wanna do that.
Good on you for developing a new skill though.
Cooking Mama was so popular in Asia that my cellphone in Korea in 2010 came with a bootleg version.
