That thing genuinely bothered me. Just, why? Even if you want to eat all of that stuff (and you absolutely shouldn't want that), how does sticking it to a jar help? Like, it probably wouldn't even look that bad if it were just served in a normal way (though it wouldn't look like something a single person should attempt to eat), but the jar just makes it somehow horrifying.

If anything, instead of a jar it should have been a cake, and the cake should have been decorative, and they'd take it away and bring out a tasty sheet cake for everyone.

I think I went "Jesus Christ, stop already!" like five times over the course of this clip.

It sure looks nice, but I'd certainly call that excessive. There's just too much chocolate after a point.

Most of the flavour of a potato is in the peel.

Try doing Heston Blumenthal's mash where he steeps the washed skin peels in hot milk that gets strained into the mash. Its super potatoey

Why not just mash the potatoes with the skin on? Also super potatoey, way less effort.

I really can't tell if it's a joke or the actual editing process. The end product of Japanese advertising is so inscrutable to me that it all seems kind of reasonable.

I think the first one for the second text block is "Make the birds blue like the twitter bird" or something?

Not like I understand Japanese, but the word 'twitter' is in english and the birds are blue in the next draft so :shrug:

It looks like the ones you can't make out are referring to "netomeshi," which are recipes that have become popular online. Many of them have been featured here, God knows.

Seems like everyone missed the part where a dishwasher isn't going to bake potatoes it's going to whole-boil them, or I guess a kind of hosed up steam bath. Either way yeah skins all the way but a dishwasher isn't baking any taters.

That's what I don't get, boiled potatoes yes, baked potatoes with skins yes, but not half and half. Who wants a soggy rear end jacket potato?

Red potatoes mashed with skins is pro as hell. Regular ol russets I'm not a big fan of the texture you get, though that method where you make like potato peel tea by steeping them and then cook with that water is good.

Yeah, the longer text is something about netomeshi feeling again, the shorter something about Twitter birds, but I can't figure out the grammar. My Japanese isn't too great :japan:
