A Chef and Normal put some of Ninja’s latest kitchen gear to the test to see if they’re genuinely genius or just great marketing.

In this episode, we’re trying out the Ninja Crispi, Ninja Staysharp Knife Block, and the Ninja Creami Scoop & Swirl to find out which products actually deliver in the kitchen. Will we see crispy cooking results, ninja-like knife performance, and frozen dessert magic? We’re putting each one through its paces and seeing whether they live up to the hype.

Barry… speechless?! That almost never happens 😅

Pearlessence Caviar Elixir had him stunned.

Today Chef Ben and Home Cook Barry are both handed the exact same ingredients to make a true dessert classic: Lemon Meringue Pie.

The catch… The kitchen is divided so neither of them can see what the other is doing.

Chef Ben will lean on professional skill, technique and clever shortcuts to create a crisp pastry shell, a smooth, sharp lemon filling, and a perfect meringue.

Home Cook Barry has to work it all out for himself.

Can you actually taste the difference between budget and premium ingredients… and is the expensive version really worth it?

In this blind taste test, we put cheap vs expensive ingredients head-to-head to find out where the extra money really goes. Is it better flavour? Better texture? Better sourcing? Better ingredients? Or just better branding?

We tested 4 Categories in real dishes:

Sesame Oil in Yukhoe
Frozen Garlic Bread with Pasta Bolognese
Rogan Josh Curry Sauce in a Lamb Rogan Josh
Granny Smith Apples in a Crab Salad

Some of these products looked similar. Some had wildly different price tags. And some premium ingredients came with all the right claims; handcrafted, hand-picked, natural, Michelin-linked, high-quality sourcing, traditional production methods. But once it came down to the actual tasting… could we tell?

Along the way we look at:
– Whether premium ingredients really deliver more flavour
– What to check on labels before you spend extra
– Where cheaper ingredients often cut corners
– Which products are worth upgrading

From Japanese toasted sesame oil to Michelin-linked curry sauce, this is a full budget vs premium food taste test to find out what’s genuinely worth paying for.

Let us know in the comments:
Which ingredient do you think makes the biggest difference and which “premium” product do you think is overrated?

TikTok Shop is full of kitchen gadgets that look genius in short videos… but are any of them actually worth buying?

In this episode, our chef Ben and Normal Mike put 4 viral TikTok Shop kitchen gadgets to the test to find out whether they’re genuinely useful, surprisingly clever, or complete rubbish. From silicone oven rack shields and a meal prep block mould, to a drinks dispenser and a heated food warming mat, we’re separating smart kitchen buys from overhyped internet nonsense.

Some of these gadgets promise to save time, protect your hands, organise your fridge, improve meal prep, and keep food hot for longer… but TikTok edits can make almost anything look amazing. So we wanted to know the truth: do these viral kitchen gadgets actually work in a real kitchen?

Featured gadgets in this video:
Silicone Oven Rack Shields
Meal Prep Block Mould
Drinks Dispenser
Plate & Food Warmer
