Warning: I misspoke. It’s 7 grams of yeast, not ounces, but hey it’s up to you.
-
“And you’ll never guess who was responsible for its creation.” NO! NOT AGAIN! IT'S NOT POSSIBLE! “It was Michael Eisner.”
-
They thought they were making a culinary breakthrough. Little did they know that Burritos existed.
-
I love that the store section is literally just him recording himself walking into a store, buying a loaf of bread, struggling at the self checkout like everyone else, then just walking out but the voice over made it so intense
-
"The first sandwich you can hold in one hand" is such a great line, because it tells you, in one short sentence, that Michael Eisner had a fully-staffed test kitchen, a massive marketing team, and a theme park full of employees, and not a single one of them was willing to break it to him that actually, you can just cut a sandwich in half.
-
"Implying that you can RIDE the Handwich. In reality, the Handwich rides YOU." This slogan could have saved the whole damn Handwich
-
“it was michael eisner.” HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS
-
it warms my heart to know that the order placed in this video is probably NOT the strangest order the arby’s worker took that day
-
The thing about the Handwich is that it's not immediately a bad idea. If I saw one being offered, I'd definitely try it. But the Handwich is something that's all about the details. How thick is the bread? How viscous are the fillings? It's something that could definitely "work" as a sort of novelty.
-
"...when in reality, the Handwich rides you" needs to be put on merch
-
I genuinely believe if they had just kept the name "Castle Cone" it would still be around. Handwich sounds strangely aggressive.
-
The whole "This is the FIRST sandwich you can hold with *one hand!*" is pretty dumb, but I'm not gonna lie, this looks perfect for messier sandwiches. The kind of sandwich where you take one bite and half the fillings squeeze out the other end back onto the plate, and you gotta decide if you wanna open the sandwich back up to pile them back in there only to risk the exact same thing happening again, or if you'll just finish your sandwich that 70% bread and then eat the rest of the fillings up with a fork.
-
"I guess everyone was right when they called you Two Handwich Kevin" is so unhinged
-
"Say the line, Kevin!" "It was Michael Eisner." "YAAAAAY!"
-
This madman actually goes through the process of studying and recreating Disney's single-hand sandwich, then immediately uses two hands to bite into it
-
I love that only about 40% of this video is about the Handwich and the remainder is an incredibly well-produced and drawn-out gag
-
That Fahrenheit 451/1984 joke just won you a Patreon Sir. I don't know why but it just killed me. I watching this last night and I was still chucking at it this morning.
-
I feel like "Castle Cone" sounds so much better and still fits Disney's overall theme
-
Catch me fucking crying because Kevin Perjurer the Defuncland guy made me a handwich and that's the kindest thing anyone has ever done for me.
-
I love how he starts with what we SHOULD do, and ends with what we're probably GOING TO do, because there's no way we're going to do this experiment using our whole asses.
