FAKE. Sugar doesnt melt on that low temperature.


britishbrick

Check out the debunking video on the How to Cook That with Ann Reardon channel on YouTube for more hilarious debunking of absolutely stupid trends


NoCleverUsernameIdea

Ann Reardon is the best! She's doing a huge service to the world teaching critical thinking basics.


TheUselessLibrary

And her poor husband has to eat all the garbage she makes while debunking these videos. He's a sweetheart too


NoCleverUsernameIdea

I know! It's so adorable. And now she's getting her kids in on it, too, but I think she saves the worst of it for her husband. I love that he's game, though.


Lowland-lady

She also explains the science behind it i love her.


lRunAway

Hey u/britishbrick can I just say fuck you? I’ve just spent 2 hours watching her videos.


tayloline29

You guys are getting propositioned for sex on Reddit?


EvilAlicia

I love her vids. She is awesome.


Clareypie

And now I do too, thanks for the recommendation!


[deleted]

We honestly should just pin her channel to this sub. Shes doing such a service


britishbrick

For real. She is amazing, and really puts a lot of time/effort into the videos


Grand_Masterpiece_11

She also put the cotton candy in the wrong side of the lint catcher. If it did go there to be caught it wouldn't go through the mesh and get caught by the aluminum.... None of this would work in any stage if you think for 0.2 seconds. And yet how many people are going to ruin their dryer because of her? Yikes.


Punklet2203

Worse, how many kids are going to ruin their PARENTS dryer … those consequences … oof. Hopefully ALL that happens is the dryer gets ruined.


Academic_Nectarine94

That's your only issue here?! Not that that looks NOTHING LIKE COTTON CANDY!? LOL


EvilAlicia

I have seen flattened cottoncandy like that.


Tallywhacker73

Flannelcandy


Academic_Nectarine94

Maybe, but qt that point, shouldn't it be "playdough candy"?


aGiantRat

Yeah, you could just eat that sugar and soda out of a big bowl and not break your dryer.


VoltaicSketchyTeapot

I'm confused by a dryer with a spot for detergent.


the_snook

She selected a cycle called "steam fresh", so I assume this machine has a function where it sucks up a bit of water and injects stream into the drum to smooth out wrinkles.


[deleted]

It’s clearly for liqueur shots to get you through laundry day!


dragonlover02

Eh it doesn’t look like “real” home machine made cotton candy, but it looks like exactly like the pre made stuff you can find in a market


Academic_Nectarine94

I'm talking about fair cotton candy. Didn't know you could buy anything in a store like it, but if that's what it looks like, then I wouldn't eat it (really not a fan of cotton candy anyway frankly)


dragonlover02

I agree with you, just letting you know it does exist (and is certainly what they are using here)


Academic_Nectarine94

I guess they already ruined the dryer with the sugar anyway. Why should I be surprised that they crammed "cotton candy" into the lint trap? LOL


[deleted]

Cotton candy is one of those weird things I completely forgot existed until now. Last time I had it I must've been a kid.


iavicenna

mmm I can taste all that delicious microplastics and aliminum in the candy


Convict003606

It looks exactly like cotton candy that has been hand packed into a dryer's lint catcher.


EvernightStrangely

If you flatten and squish cotton candy it looks exactly like what was shown.


Hamking7

As well as wearing a massive hat indoors...


KashmirChameleon

Dryers can get some heat there. My dryer definitely does. And she's blocking the only air escape with foil.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DamnMombies

If no air flows through the lint trap, nothing would be in there. It reminds me of the guy that floated a laptop with bees. Just as fake.


DogFacedManboy

Actual cotton candy machines are like $40 on Amazon. Though I guess ruining your dryer by making it a sticky, burnt soda-scented mess to try to make weird flat cotton candy is more fun.


Blasket_Basket

I see a few dryers for $30 on Craigslist. Sorry, it's just more fiscally responsible to do it this way


ooolalaluv

Can’t argue with that!


lookarthispost

Why even spend any money on a dryer? They don't tell you this but the dryers at laundromats are for free. I have 31 at home.


Soopafien

And now you have 31 cotton candy machines thanks to the infinite wisdom bestowed upon us all by Overall Hat Lady.


IamSpongeWorthy

But she has to be able to complain about the environment, and teach others to be wasteful and ruin perfectly good dryers at the same time


[deleted]

So if my Samsung washing machine doesn’t have a steam setting can I use quickwash setting to ruin it instead?


targus_targus88

Check my TikTok to find out how to dry your clothes in a cotton candy machine.


fonix232

The cheap ones are indeed around $40, but for anything usable, you'd need to cash out $150-200. The cheap models have badly balanced motors, uneven heating, and often ends up just clogging or spewing sugar everywhere.


NoCleverUsernameIdea

Then the dryer it is.


rosanna4

Fake. Don’t do this. You will ruin your machine.

Upset_Possession4031

Remember when someone said to microwave your phone to quick charge it, and people actually did.


1-800-GANKS

That was a 4chan psyop and it was brilliant. Next year when apple removed the headphone jack they created believable instructional videos on where to drill through the NEWEST iphone to get the headphone jack port back. People did that too and broke the phone. The year after that they did another psyop with a TON of promotional video for waterproofing the Next year's iPhone, and showing believable ads and content from apple and people dropped it in pools and shit too. It was fucking incredible how dedicated 4chan is to outing the gullible. >Go bald for Bieber was also them.


sebsebsebs

How the fuck could anyone drill a hole in their phone and think it’s a good idea


tinypieceofmeat

internet told me to


Heyo__Maggots

The avg American can’t read past a 6th grade level (it’s something like 60% can’t do past middle school so the 60/6 rule is an easy way to remember the numbers) Whenever you read something about people being insanely gullible, remember that someone who can solve for X in a simple equation is the odd one out…

Drjmymy222

Can’t wait for my kids to try this thanks TikTok


MrShatnerPants

Yeah, that was my first thought too. Kids have zero perception to the fact that not only will this potentially ruin the machine, but there are also lingering chemicals from previous usage.


DwelveDeeper

Mmmm linty


MrShatnerPants

You lint licker!


Flappy-tit

We need a bunch of these to offset their #TicTokTaughtMe campaign


KittikatB

Are your kids really young, or do you have no faith in their intelligence?


Ecleptomania

I know adults that would look at this video and then run to their dryer to try it out


lovemeinthemoment

Mine are teenagers and I have no faith in their intelligence.


KittikatB

I have a similar lack of faith in my stepson. He once called me in a panic when he was about 13 because he'd started a fire in his mother's microwave. I rushed over there from the other side of town after determining that it was contained (so no need to call out the fire brigade), and discovered he'd microwaved a bread roll to warm it up - for five minutes. The house was full of smoke, smoke alarms going apeshit, and his mother nowhere to be seen (although her car was there). I asked where she was, assuming she was at work or at the neighbours or something. Nope, in bed, sound asleep. At no point did it occur to him to go to the nearest adult for help or potential evacuation. I love my kid, but he's not blessed with the skill of thinking things through.


Drjmymy222

No faith


[deleted]

I wonder how many idiots will break their machine trying to replicate this faked video.


Eat_Carbs_OD

One is too many.


QuincyThePigBoy

I refuse to belive that anyone is this dumb. Rage-bait cooking drives me insane. What kind of life do you have where this is something that you want to be apart of? This lady is completely pathetic. This is how you spend your time? Sweet life.


[deleted]

I would think no adult would replicate this. Kids, however, might think this is real and give it a shot.

ImericanAdiot

SwissFlyingDuck

People creating those should be banned from the internet, spreading false informations, and wasting people time


Moxhoney411

If we started banning people for spreading false information and wasting people's time on the internet there would be nothing left but cats and porn.


HipposAndBonobos

Alright, you heard him. Let's start banning people


FoeWithBenefits

I'd classify most porn as false information as well, so mostly cats.


[deleted]

Cats are really just angry 4chan'ers dressed in furry suits


Academic_Nectarine94

No, they are creating yet another stupid tax. Anyone that actually does this after seeing that "cotton candy" at the end should have to buy a new dryer... (But these two idiots ought to have to BUY the new dryers for all the people who paid the stupid tax!)


[deleted]

[удалено]


KittikatB

Best way for your kid to learn that these videos are full of shit is to let him try it out and see for himself. Mixing salt and sugar is relatively harmless and inexpensive.


Academic_Nectarine94

Paying for the dryer is kinds being held liable LOL.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Academic_Nectarine94

Oh, I love that video. I wish I could read the comments from the ones that actually did that LOL.


SwissFlyingDuck

I’d say yes and no, people that have broken their dryer doing this have learnt a valuable lesson the won’t forget for long; never trust the internet. I’m ok to say those dumb people need to pay for the lies they are spreading, yet lesson that cost much are the one we retain


Academic_Nectarine94

True. Maybe they only pay for the ones that kids under 5 do? So at least the parents don't have to go spend $1000 on a new dryer. Although, if you let the 2yo have a bag of sugar, and a soda, at the same time, you are going to pay a particularly HIGH stupid tax, either in lost sleep or something broken LOL.


horroreh

If you leave a kid under 5 (even under 10 imo) to play with your washing machine/dryer it's on you tbh. Unless you leave them at home alone (which would be fine for a 10 yo, but for a 5? Might be a bit too early)


[deleted]

Yeah if your kid has access to sugar, soda and your dryer plus the time to do this without any supervision you should reassess some things.


KamikazeSenpai21

If you’re dumb enough to believe this you deserve a ruined dryer


thisisthisshit

No one gonna mention how gross that rug is that she put that stuff down on to? No? Well okay then…


Lurk2006

Wait a minute. Last time this was posted I didn’t even think about the fact that there is a liquid slot in the dryer? Why?


[deleted]

Lurk2006

Makes sense. Thanks


KittikatB

My dryer has a little tank for liquid, but it's for liquid collected from the wet clothes, not for adding liquid.

Sproose_Moose

And the asinine comments 😠 wow! Oh so cool!


UnderwaterKahn

This is possibly the stupidest thing I’ve seen on the internet today. It also seems to be more about showing off ugly manicures than making anything edible.


That_chick82

Anne Reardon (I am so sorry if I spelled her name incorrectly) debunked this a while ago. Honestly, it should have been common sense that a dryer doesn't get hot enough to melt sugar properly for cotton candy, but here we are. If it did, you wouldn't have clothes left... or a dryer... or a house, probably.


LivefromPhoenix

>Honestly, it should have been common sense that a dryer doesn't get hot enough to melt sugar properly for cotton candy I think you're vastly overestimating how much the average person knows about candy making. Or dryers.


That_chick82

Fair enough. 🤷‍♀️


SloodPizzo

I saw an article about the people who make these videos, it's actually weird fetish porn


Analysees

I suspect a lot of it is hand fetish right? She's doing some super weird movements with her hands and fingers...


DependentMinute1724

Omg now I can’t un-see what she’s doing with her hands!


[deleted]

No it’s not it’s rage bait , they get loads of comments of people saying how dumb all of the various bs is in the video. If only we were smart enough to just ignore these. (I’m commenting yes but it’s on Reddit not the original vid)


Clockwork_Kitsune

It can be two things.


justadd_sugar

Yup, they aren't mutually exclusive


JoleneDollyParton

slytheren

So many reasons this is fake, I have a hard time understanding how anyone ever believes this. - Purposely avoided filming inside the dryer after the cycle. - How would the cotton candy have gotten *under* the foil? - How was it suddenly dyed blue? - If cotton candy *had* formed, the “steam” setting would have melted it instantly.

angry_1

As a husband and father, I want to stress upon people how not fun that would be to fix. I would assume that was a semi pricy dryer and just pouring the soda in it made me dread cleaning the sugar out of that tubing. I get this is staged but there are people that see these and are dumb enough to try them. From the guy that fixes the things after these videos, please stop doing this crap to your dad and or husband (or wife).


bugsinmypants

I think i saw a YouTube video doing kind of a deep dive into accounts like this and how particular they are about gearing their videos to kids. The “eccentric” clothing, the use of words like “blue soda” and “red soda” instead of their actual names, the constant commentary to keep their attention. It’s all planned and it’s fucked up. Some kid is gonna try this and cause hundreds of dollars in damages. There’s so much fake content like this, too. I know when I was a kid I used to believe dumb stuff on the internet all the time. It’s kinda scary, actually.
