Food Jammers

[Duer 157099]

Have you seen this show? Apparently it's been around for 3 seasons, but I only recently just stumbled upon it and I just love it.

It's about these 3 guys who seem to have some scientific/engineering/art backgrounds and also seem to be roommates (I haven't even Googled anything about them yet) and they invent these creative and usually wacky food-related items. I mean, devices. Either to cook or otherwise prepare food in a novel way, or to serve it, or just ... I don't even know really how to describe it. It's like you take 3 good friends who are all foodies and all techies and have the equipment and skills to manufacture anything they need, and then they just do it. Sometimes it's very clever, sometimes it just seems so assbackwards that you just scratch your head, but always it's entertaining to watch them. They're very mellow low-key creative guys.

The first show I happened upon was one where they decided they needed to build a hot tub outside (it seems to snow alot where they live) where they could sit in the tub and cook and eat a meal at the same time, lol. The trouble they go through to accomplish their visions is just fascinating. So in that episode, they built this tub that was heated by a wood fire below, and then they had a hot pot for boiling food while they were sitting in the tub.

So have any of you seen their show? What do you think?

1. I've seen it

I really wanted to like it because in theory it seems like something I'd really enjoy. However, I found those guys really kind of annoying. But I'm an old broad and don't really like hanging in the frat houses no matter how much they beg....:rofl:

5. Yes! I didn't know they had another show, thanks

I had suspected it was Canada but none of them had a Canadian accent so I figured it was probably up there somewhere like Vermont.
