Ads have made the channel unwatchable.

I haven't watched a full binging with babish video in over a year due to the ads. A little background I watch on my TV which I know has longer ads but it's become unwatchable. I'll attempt to watch a video with my wife and there will be a minute long unskippable ad every 2 minutes. Not to mention there will be 2-3 ad reads in the video and a self promotion of his own line. I know he needs to make money and has a staff to pay, but it's ridiculous how pervasive the ads have become. I have been watching him for almost 10 years now and discovered him with my wife and we used to watch every single video of his. Now even the food ranking videos are just bloated with ads. It makes me sad to think about it but I just can't enjoy his content anymore.

EDIT: I see a lot of comments saying this a YouTube issue not a babish issue but I disagree, while I can't claim to know what goes on behind the scenes with posting a video and how the ads work I can say I watch plenty of other channels of similar subscriber count and video length that don't have remotely close to the same amount of ads.

I ordered all the Babish meals off cookunity. I tried his great American pot roast with buttermilk mashed potatoes.

Well friends, this is the last meal of the set. I prepared it according to the chef instructions.

The meat is tender and with the gravy has really great flavor. The diced veggies are not mushy and have a nice texture to them.

The mashed potatoes are fantastic. A very smooth texture and no salt or anything needed.

This may be the best of the meals. It’s hard to compare it to the others since they are so different. I do like the convenience of these meals and maybe if the price point was less I would consider ordering them again. If he does different meals I’d definitely try them.

Edit: forgot to include how I prepared it

I ordered all the Babish meals off of cookunity. I tried his spicy chili-garlic noodles.

I prepared it according to the chef instructions.

The noodles are cooked well and not mushy. The sauce has a ton of flavor including the chili crisp oil that you mix in at the end. The pork is well seasoned and when it’s all mixed together It’s a very tasty meal.

I personally don’t like peanuts in savory dishes, but other than that I would definitely order it again.

I ordered all the Babish meals off of cookunity, I tried his fried chicken with Calabrian chili honey with smoky collard green mac & cheese.

I prepared the meal according to the chef instructions.

The chicken is tender and somewhat juicy. I think preparing this according to the instructions wasn’t exactly the best advice. If the chicken was prepared in an air fryer, the breading would be much better. Also the chicken could have a bit more flavor/maybe some more salt.

The smoky collard green mac & cheese is very good imo. Love the taste and the texture of all the ingredients combined together.

I might add some hot sauce to the chicken to finish it but so far it’s not my favorite.

Question about level 10 chocolate chip cookie

Hi! So you’re supposed to toast the bread and all purpose flour and then add in untoasted spelt flour later. I stupidly toasted all of the flour including the spelt flour. Should I start over or do you think it’ll be alright?
