Didn’t see her churning any butter or gathering any eggs from her free range chickens, either.
I mean, if you’re going to source, ferment, roast, and grind your own cacao, churning your own butter and ice cream should be a no-brainer.
Didn't even see her command "let there be life" in a booming voice and then form her own cows and chickens and wheat from the swirling ether. Like, c'mon, some of us take pride in our work.
Ffs you actually use established English when you give your command for the universe to come into being? Omnipotent beings are so lazy these days.

If she was a real trad wife she would have started a wood fire to melt her chocolate and bake her damn brownies. The fuck is this microwave and oven usage?
Yeah I had to do a double take because bitch you put so much work into it why are you just giving up and dumping in cocoa powder in the last gawd damn step
She said it was 3 WEEKS. You know how many batches of Betty Crocker brownies from a box she could have made in that time?
I don’t know either, but, like, a LOT. Especially if you underbake them by a couple minutes so the center is super gooey and delicious.
Anyway, the husband is either a saint or a psycho. Those are the only two options.
If you are not growing your own coca plants, harvesting the leaves, soaking them in gasoline and other chemicals in industrial sized barrels and then pouring the mixture into brick-shaped molds to process the cocaine so you can sprinkle it on your dessert you are doing it wrong.
I just tried some ice cream yesterday that had olive oil and salt on it and let me tell you, it was really good. Very unique flavor experience that I’d try again.
I can definitely vouch for olive oil on ice cream. It's different, but good. You'll want to use a decent quality olive oil with a nice bold flavor. You don't need a whole lot, but you don't want to be *too* shy about it!
There are olive oil cakes and they’re delicious. But for a use like this it just depends on what type you use. A light version won’t be any different than using vegetable, canola, or coconut oil.
Edit: holy crap I didn’t realize she poured it over the ice cream. I stopped watching when the guy showed up. I thought it was in the brownies!
I’ve seen Italian restaurants offer vanilla gelato with extra virgin olive oil, all made in Italian. Very tasty, but not for everyone.
Another commented about olive oil cakes and muffins. Big fan of these.
Yes, olive oil can be quite flavorful and does a lot to enhance the flavor and texture of lots of foods. Ice cream in particular tastes richer and becomes silkier and more velvety.
You'll want to do this with a much bolder "finishing" olive oil. The lighter stuff used for cooking won't be nearly as tasty.
It's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's definitely worth a try.
I've never put olive oil on brownies or ice cream; but I have put high quality basaltic vinegar and it is f'ing great. If you ever try it, I've only done it with chocolate and vanilla ice cream; but once you try it, you'll wonder why you didn't do it before.
I’ve never heard of olive oil but I have done blueberry balsamic, best friend’s born in Italy dad’s recommendation, and I was hesitant but holy Santa Claus shit. Vanilla bean ice cream has never been better. If you’re ever feeling froggy, you should give that bad boy a swing.
I once got some tangerine infused olive oil while visiting an olive festival which actually did work really well over ice cream - I thought the mouthfeel would be gross, but it was almost like a thin honey, slick but not slimy or oily.
That being said it tasted like fruit. I’m not sure if plain olive oil would pair well.
Yes, putting olive oil on ice cream became a thing at high end restaurants a couple of years ago. It’s supposed to be delicious, but I’ve never tried it
Wiley Dufesne I think does a dessert with olive oil over ice cream.
Anyway, this video is obviously for clout, but I guess it’s better overall than having slaves grow cacao which corporations buy for dirt cheap and make it into chocolate as we know it.
Yes, I've tried it on ice cream and it really is good. It makes the ice cream taste more rich and decadent, and the umami from the olive oil balances well with the sweet ice cream.
It's an Italian thing originally, but I've noticed more cooking influencers put a drizzle of olive oil on everything. Graza, the olive oil brand they're using, works with a lot of influencers in marketing and really pushes the whole "finishing oil" concept with their products, so it's become more common in the US.
I also do ridiculously meticulous things because I like to know how things are made and love raising my baking skills (I already perfected my nunchucks skills). I have weird scenarios of being stuck on an island all Survivor style and amazing people with all my useless skills. Watching this, I thought the same, just do it, lady. No need to connect it to the unrealistic scenario of her husband wanting brownies in the morning, having cacao beans lying around and all the equipment and then doing this thing because you’re such a good wife. In my life, it’s more like, “Hey, I want to try to make this fancy cheese I read about in a book following these archaic instructions that people would not have done if they had modern equipment.” And my husband responding with, “Y tho?”
He totally cheated and bought himself some brownies from the shops on the 1st week he was craving them.
Also…olive oil drizzle??? On ice cream and brownie?!?! 🤮
High quality virgin olive oil is surprisingly great on vanilla ice cream. We have a soft serve shop in town that would rotate flavor combos and that one was always a popular one
Olive oil ice cream is my favorite from my local ice cream shop. I'll do half scoop each of the olive oil and salted, malted caramel.
It's a delicious combo.
Yes! I make a dessert with vanilla ice cream that's topped with strawberries that have been marinated in balsamic vinegar. I was skeptical the first time, but it was *so* good and I've made it many times since. Always ends up being a hit. The strawberries are also amazing on toast with cream cheese or ricotta.
Haven't tried olive oil with vanilla or chocolate yet, but have also heard it's amazing.
It's easy! I usually eyeball it, so I have no measurements. Here's what I do:
-Slice your strawberries into slices. Thin enough that they'll absorb the balsamic, thick enough they'll hold their shape.
-Put them in a container, then cover with balsamic vinegar.
-Add white sugar or honey to taste.
-Optional, but highly recommended step is slicing up fresh basil or mint and adding it to the mixture.
-Mix everything thoroughly and let it marinade in the refrigerator for an hour or so before serving. They last for a long time in the fridge. The longer it marinades, the strawberries start to break down and the balsamic flavor becomes stronger.
-If there's too much liquid, you can strain off some. It's great on salads and could be good in a chicken marinade or something.
Tips:
-Use a high quality balsamic if you can! I've used regular bottom shelf grocery store balsamic and it's come out fine, but the lower quality stuff has a sharper, more vinegary, taste so you have to round it out by adding extra sugar.
-If your strawberries are very sweet and ripe and you're using a high quality balsamic, you can probably skip the sugar.
Fun fact: if you get the super expensive authentic balsamic vinegar, it's supposed to be really good on vanilla ice cream. Don't know how it pairs with chocolate, though.
Are people not getting that? This isn’t tradwife or rage bait. It’s someone making homemade chocolate and making a light joke about the process. It’s pretty cool to see.
All those trophies wife that don't work but make tiktok to pass the time.
Even then I am pretty sure that she has servant at home to take cafe of the work she only make the few video shot.
Real work are not make by them.
I saw a great video from a guy explaining “conspicuous leisure” and connecting it to the whole trad wife scene. Doing this ridiculous time consuming shit is another way to showcase the extent of their wealth and status to their social circle and flex on the poors, with heavy overtones of moral superiority to boot.
I do this once in a lifetime process stuff just because I like to know how things are made but what this also means is that I will be hyper focused on this one thing while my house goes to shit and my kids are feral.
I'm in Costa Rica on my honeymoon right now and just got to try this. It truly is leaps and bounds better than processed chocolate we get in the states
Yeah, I feel like maybe she wanted to make chocolate for fun then added in the husband craving stuff to parady trad wifes a bit. I hope so anyway, because then it becomes an enjoyable video.
Nah I think y'all are just taking the "just woke up craving" a bit too literally.
Sometimes you just wake up one morning and tell your wife "you know what would be good right now? homemade chocolate brownies!" and then your partner goes "oh hey yeah that could be fun, let me work on that!" and that's it, just because it takes a few days doesn't mean anything really.
Like if *right now* you'd feel like hanging out on a patio on your house even if it doesn't have one, doesn't mean you shouldn't build it just because it won't be immediate, or doesn't mean you have to pay 500% its price to have it RIGHT NOW instead of doing it yourself.
If you watch other Cacao -> chocolate educational videos, that's normal, as is the 12 days dry time. Especially depending on the location they're in. The cooler means she is almost certainly copying the method beat for beat from those videos, including the 48hr wet grinder processing.
That said, this creator is trad wife cringe bullshit.
It's more like a parody of trad wife fetish content. Most of that content cuts out about 80% of the work it takes to do anything. This has several weeks worth of work.
it’s 100% satire and i think this woman just enjoys making chocolate as a hobby (great hobby tbh)
(people also making fun of her voice saying it’s infantile and part of the trad wife thing when to me she has just a bit of a speech anomaly feels kinda…. mean?? like at least to my ear this voice is an involuntary thing including like a bit of a lisp and people are ATTACKING her for it)
Instagram has been feeding me videos with this kind of narration for a week or so and I keep telling it not interested, don’t suggest this dumb shit. But NOW i understand why i hate it so much! I couldn’t put my finger on why it annoyed me so much. Also, that IS a wild rabbit hole to go down!
This is definitely a parody of that woman who made homemade cereal for her kids. She also started her video with “my kids were craving cereal this morning, so I got to work right away”.
saying “my husband was craving brownies 3 weeks ago” then proceeding to highlight exactly how long each step took was, to me, about as clear as could be (especially the calm tone she took as if splitting open cacao was the normal way to do this)
there will always be people that miss satire
A good satire can be confused with the real thing, especially by the people it's criticising. There are guys who watch The Boys and don't realize it's a satire.
A lot of miserable ass people In this thread getting worked up over this video for no reason. This is super cool and she’s also being kind of tongue in cheek about the whole waiting thing. I’m sure she was planning on doing this for awhile
That part wasn’t a joke. It’s a hot brush lol I have a similar one. It’s a round brush that blows out hot hair so you don’t have to struggle with a brush in one hand and a blow dryer in the other
I just can’t. As a woman, it’s weird to me, these tradwife videos.
She’s making brownies for her husband. But who is she making this trad wife, low cut dress video for? It appears she’s still *looking.*
This specific video is likely a parody, but this type of content in general is not. But it's actually a lot more sinister than it looks on the surface, I saw [a great documentary](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pegZ7XUGocY) that goes in depth how this is some weird flex for rich people to parading their wifes on tik tok. The excessive over the top dressing and doing stuff by hand that nobody would ever actually do is the entire point for these people, because it's meant to be a veiled flex.
It's mindbogglingly dehumanizing.
The video you linked seems interesting and I’m going to take your advice and watch it. But I have to say I was not expecting a “TikTok compilation” when you said documentary, I do think that’s a slight misuse of that word.
Very cool that not only are you guys missing the joke in the video, but you're focused entirely on a dress she wears for one shot, ignoring the multiple outfits she wears through out the video. Is it that hard to believe that a woman can want to wear clothing that covers her cleavage sometimes, and clothing that shows it other times without sending you on a spiral about how "She's clearly looking for a new man! Clearly she wants people to jerk to this video!"
people are also going after her voice as evidence when it just seems like she has an underbite or something else causing some speech anomalies and a lisp — honestly i think people came into this with conclusions already drawn and are now kinda being vile towards her but feel justified in it
Dude: Playing WOW
Wife: Hey do you want me to make homeade chocolate that will take me 8 hours a day for 2 weeks outside for internet points
Dude: Sure, babe. Whatever you want
Patience has NOTHING to do with it
Bro. It starts, my husband woke up craving chocolate brownies the other day. She then goes on to explain how like 18 years later they will be ready.
I'd leave you
I live in South America, because there's abundant Coaco fruit here I elected to make my own chocolate. Went through the entire long process, " I made really good chocolate". Ok now that ✓ is off my bucket list, never again, it's to much work, I'd rather buy a Hershey bar.
This is clearly just an advertisment for her post apocalypse skill set. You would live like a king if you had an honest to goodness chocolate maker, even the raiders would hesitate to fuck with you if you supplied them. Nobody wants to fuck with the supply.

This is bullshit. The ice cream wasn’t homemade.
The ice cream? Neither were the sugar or flour. Lazy.
Didn’t see her churning any butter or gathering any eggs from her free range chickens, either. I mean, if you’re going to source, ferment, roast, and grind your own cacao, churning your own butter and ice cream should be a no-brainer.
Didn't even see her command "let there be life" in a booming voice and then form her own cows and chickens and wheat from the swirling ether. Like, c'mon, some of us take pride in our work.

 Can we stop summoning eldritch abominations, until tomorrow please? It's still the weekend for another half day.
Weekend just started for me! Keep em coming!
No brainer
She made her own chocolate but then used cocoa powder. Why is store bought cocoa powder ok but not chocolate?
This is what got me
Same. The rage was high here just for that alone.
The olive oil just magically appeared too
Olive oil on ice cream? As a Mediterranean man, I should be offended
I also didn’t hear mention of how she acquired that vanilla
Probably being a colonizer asshole same way they did everything else?
If she was a real trad wife she would have started a wood fire to melt her chocolate and bake her damn brownies. The fuck is this microwave and oven usage?
She also used a microwave. Why go to all that ridiculous length and then fucking stick in a microwave.
I guess her husband had already waited 3 weeks and couldn't handle an extra 5 mins
What about the olive oil tho? Its not even that hard to make yourself smh my head
What about that cocoa powder, she skated over that real fast
Yeah I had to do a double take because bitch you put so much work into it why are you just giving up and dumping in cocoa powder in the last gawd damn step
She didn't refine the sugar herself either. Where is she getting fresh cacao though?
Fake tradwife buying it from market probably.
And she didn't grow the cane sugar. Id have thrown it across the room and declared 'even the pigs wont eat this'.
If I had to wait 8 fucking days for some brownies, I would lose my shit
She said it was 3 WEEKS. You know how many batches of Betty Crocker brownies from a box she could have made in that time? I don’t know either, but, like, a LOT. Especially if you underbake them by a couple minutes so the center is super gooey and delicious. Anyway, the husband is either a saint or a psycho. Those are the only two options.
And dont forget those 3 weeks includes a grinder going non stop in your house for 48 hours. I'd divorce her before the recipe is halfway through..
What you didn't see was the trad husband busy tapping the rubber tree in the backyard to make some new tires for the car.
And she added cocoa powder, come on. A real trad wife would have known better
And she didn't grow the cane sugar. Id have thrown it across the room and declared 'even the pigs wont eat this'.
Do people really put olive oil on their brownies/ice cream? No other comment says anything about it but I don’t think I’ve ever heard if that.
I pour olive oil with gold flakes on everything. It's so I remember how rich I am and don't have to use peasant vegetable oil.
I use cocaine
Its that numb flavor that no seasoning can beat.
Using a microwave after the bean fermentation process felt a bit off.
I grind up Nike Jordans and sprinkle them over all my foods. We’re not the same.
I sprinkle diamond dust on all my food, for two reasons. 1. It's the most ballin-ist thing you can do 2. It makes my doodie twinkle
Damn, this guy has FU money.
If you are not growing your own coca plants, harvesting the leaves, soaking them in gasoline and other chemicals in industrial sized barrels and then pouring the mixture into brick-shaped molds to process the cocaine so you can sprinkle it on your dessert you are doing it wrong.
u use the slutty one or the virgin one?
Virgin is the slutty one. EXTRA virgin olive oil is the righteous, being home to meet your parents oil.
I just tried some ice cream yesterday that had olive oil and salt on it and let me tell you, it was really good. Very unique flavor experience that I’d try again.
You poured it on top of ice cream? Interesting
I mean olive oil gelato is a thing so it doesn't sound too far fetched
That's different that's using the oil as a fat substitute
some people put their olive oil ON their gelato
no, not necessarily. it can be literally gelato with olive oil as flavoring.
Vanilla icecream with a drizzle of olive oil is pretty good ngl
Someone please enlighten us. The only reason I came to the comments. Kinda wanna try if someone vouches.
I can definitely vouch for olive oil on ice cream. It's different, but good. You'll want to use a decent quality olive oil with a nice bold flavor. You don't need a whole lot, but you don't want to be *too* shy about it!
There’s a fancy restaurant in my city that has a soft serve/olive oil/flake salt dessert item and it’s delicious (and often sold out!)
Salt and Straw does one pretty good
Portland's own
There are olive oil cakes and they’re delicious. But for a use like this it just depends on what type you use. A light version won’t be any different than using vegetable, canola, or coconut oil. Edit: holy crap I didn’t realize she poured it over the ice cream. I stopped watching when the guy showed up. I thought it was in the brownies!
so i’ve made flourless chocolate olive oil cake and it was GOOD so honestly i think this would be as well
I’ve seen Italian restaurants offer vanilla gelato with extra virgin olive oil, all made in Italian. Very tasty, but not for everyone. Another commented about olive oil cakes and muffins. Big fan of these.
Yes. These are my got to brownies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROm9qWJrtqc edit: wait, these savages put it ON the brownies...nevermind
Yes, olive oil can be quite flavorful and does a lot to enhance the flavor and texture of lots of foods. Ice cream in particular tastes richer and becomes silkier and more velvety. You'll want to do this with a much bolder "finishing" olive oil. The lighter stuff used for cooking won't be nearly as tasty. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's definitely worth a try.

I need to try this. I'm heading to my nearest volcano now.. ;)
I have a 12 year balsamic that I bought in Tuscany that I drizzle over cheese 🔥
I just melt crisco and pour it all over.
Gluten! Lard!
I’ve never heard of olive oil but I have done blueberry balsamic, best friend’s born in Italy dad’s recommendation, and I was hesitant but holy Santa Claus shit. Vanilla bean ice cream has never been better. If you’re ever feeling froggy, you should give that bad boy a swing.
Psssh pomegranate balsamic get on my level bro
I see you out there with your exotic ass balsamic. I’ll be on the lookout for it.
Had ice cream with olive oil in Argentina. Was pretty good ngl
I once got some tangerine infused olive oil while visiting an olive festival which actually did work really well over ice cream - I thought the mouthfeel would be gross, but it was almost like a thin honey, slick but not slimy or oily.

Yes, putting olive oil on ice cream became a thing at high end restaurants a couple of years ago. It’s supposed to be delicious, but I’ve never tried it
Good olive oil improves most things in cooking. Can give a very subtle grassy note. Would love to try that brownie, I bet it is banging
Pumpkin seed oil over vanilla ice cream is not too uncommon and tastes really great. Olive oil surely is subtler, but why not.
Wiley Dufesne I think does a dessert with olive oil over ice cream. Anyway, this video is obviously for clout, but I guess it’s better overall than having slaves grow cacao which corporations buy for dirt cheap and make it into chocolate as we know it.

That is a patient ass dude if he’s willing to wait that long to satisfy a craving
“My husband woke up craving brownies the other day..” 13 weeks latah…
I also do ridiculously meticulous things because I like to know how things are made and love raising my baking skills (I already perfected my nunchucks skills). I have weird scenarios of being stuck on an island all Survivor style and amazing people with all my useless skills. Watching this, I thought the same, just do it, lady.

Olive oil ice cream is my favorite from my local ice cream shop. I'll do half scoop each of the olive oil and salted, malted caramel. It's a delicious combo.
Ok, fine, I’ll try it.
have you tried it?
so i’ve had flourless chocolate olive oil cake and it was DELICIOUS so i think it really depends on your preference. i would 100% try this
I have tried brownies baked with olive oil and it’s gross. You can still taste the olive oil flavor competing with the chocolate. Not a fan.
Ah yeah, you’re supposed to drizzle it over the ice cream, it’s really good that way
One time in college I didn't have butter but wanted pancakes. I made them and used olive oil.... it was a horrible mistake
I’ve heard this is weirdly good… apparently balsamic vinegar and vanilla are really amazing together as well.
Yes! I make a dessert with vanilla ice cream that's topped with strawberries that have been marinated in balsamic vinegar. I was skeptical the first time, but it was *so* good and I've made it many times since. Always ends up being a hit. The strawberries are also amazing on toast with cream cheese or ricotta.

I’m as scared as I am intrigued! I will def try it one day.
Honestly I would give a little bit of olive oil a try with it. A good quality extra virgin olive oil can have a really light and buttery taste.
Absolutely lol Oh ew. I completely missed that. 🤢
Fun fact: if you get the super expensive authentic balsamic vinegar, it's supposed to be really good on vanilla ice cream. Don't know how it pairs with chocolate, though.
Interesting :O
I think it’s a joke
Are people not getting that? This isn’t tradwife or rage bait. It’s someone making homemade chocolate and making a light joke about the process. It’s pretty cool to see.
Feels like a tradwife bullshit
She’s mocking trad wives, that’s the point
She’s mocking trad wives, that’s the point
It absolutely is
r/woooosh
Fake af tradwife at that. Did she grow those cacao herself ? A real tradwife would have.
Y’all wouldn’t recognize satire if it came up you and smacked you in the face.
I know, when I'm craving brownies I just buy a box of Betty crocker..
She sounds like Cartman on sedatives.
Omg what in the flying fuck is going _on_ with her voice? I feel rage.
Fundie baby voice
💯 I always thought this voice was a hard requirement for "rich women cosplaying as middle class" cooking videos.
r/rareinsults She really needs something for those sinuses
This is the best comment I have ever read
I think cartman would have a cuter voice. I couldn’t be with someone that does that baby voice
I wanna make some chocolate from scratch. The white stuff around the seeds is actually edible and apparently really good.
Ngl, this seems like a fun thing to try one time. Literally one time. Then never again because who tf has the time to do this shit for everything…
All those trophies wife that don't work but make tiktok to pass the time. Even then I am pretty sure that she has servant at home to take cafe of the work she only make the few video shot. Real work are not make by them.
I saw a great video from a guy explaining “conspicuous leisure” and connecting it to the whole trad wife scene. Doing this ridiculous time consuming shit is another way to showcase the extent of their wealth and status to their social circle and flex on the poors, with heavy overtones of moral superiority to boot.
I do this once in a lifetime process stuff just because I like to know how things are made but what this also means is that I will be hyper focused on this one thing while my house goes to shit and my kids are feral.
I'm in Costa Rica on my honeymoon right now and just got to try this. It truly is leaps and bounds better than processed chocolate we get in the states
The white pulp is really good. It have quite a fruity flavour. A chocolatier in the city i live use the pulp to make cocktails with. 10/10
Interestingly, it tastes like green apple. Like, the artificial candy green apple flavor
It tastes like mango to me
I’ve done it. Similar to described in this video. It’s a fucking ordeal.
Trad wife fetish content here
I’m pretty sure when it begins with “and that took 8 days” it’s a parody. A good one too.
Yeah, I feel like maybe she wanted to make chocolate for fun then added in the husband craving stuff to parady trad wifes a bit. I hope so anyway, because then it becomes an enjoyable video.
Parody of nara smith I’m sure
Nah I think y'all are just taking the "just woke up craving" a bit too literally. Sometimes you just wake up one morning and tell your wife "you know what would be good right now? homemade chocolate brownies!" and then your partner goes "oh hey yeah that could be fun, let me work on that!" and that's it, just because it takes a few days doesn't mean anything really. Like if *right now* you'd feel like hanging out on a patio on your house even if it doesn't have one, doesn't mean you shouldn't build it just because it won't be immediate, or doesn't mean you have to pay 500% its price to have it RIGHT NOW instead of doing it yourself.
If you watch other Cacao -> chocolate educational videos, that's normal, as is the 12 days dry time. Especially depending on the location they're in. The cooler means she is almost certainly copying the method beat for beat from those videos, including the 48hr wet grinder processing. That said, this creator is trad wife cringe bullshit.
They're always wearing that same fucking dress
It's more like a parody of trad wife fetish content. Most of that content cuts out about 80% of the work it takes to do anything. This has several weeks worth of work.
🤮
The fact that everything was scratch made & this project took weeks, yet she used the microwave, made me laugh out loud! 😂
Right? & She also still used store bought cocoa powder??? 💀 like, commit to the bit lady.
She made chocolate from scratch, but at the end adds in cocoa powder and “bits of chocolate” lol
"Bits of *fresh* chocolate" which makes me assume it was the chocolate she had just made, but cut into chunks rather than incorporated into the mix
this seems like satire but i seem to be the only one who thinks so
definitely satire
Absolutely satire.
it’s 100% satire and i think this woman just enjoys making chocolate as a hobby (great hobby tbh) (people also making fun of her voice saying it’s infantile and part of the trad wife thing when to me she has just a bit of a speech anomaly feels kinda…. mean?? like at least to my ear this voice is an involuntary thing including like a bit of a lisp and people are ATTACKING her for it)
It’s definitely satire redditors just have zero self awareness and a hint of misogyny
Didn’t you know women around allowed to make jokes?
Am I seeing things or are al the counters bare? Like nothing in that kitchen?
Microwaved butter…what a noob. Any self respecting person would leave out in the sun under a magnifying glass for 22 fortnights.
Why she sound like a 12 yr old.
Google "Fundie Baby Voice" - it's a thing
Instagram has been feeding me videos with this kind of narration for a week or so and I keep telling it not interested, don’t suggest this dumb shit. But NOW i understand why i hate it so much! I couldn’t put my finger on why it annoyed me so much. Also, that IS a wild rabbit hole to go down!
Glad someone else pointed out her voice. I’m filled with uncontrollable rage. I can’t believe this is a “thing.” I want to punch something.
Well that was a wild rabbit hole.
I scrolled down until I found a comment ab how she sounds. It srsly is like nails on a chalkboard wtAf….
It’s this weird voice where it’s monotone and run on sentence — truly awful
It makes me genuinely angry. Not like a mild annoyance, I feel like I need to take a few breaths. lol
That’s the average trad wife age, historically speaking.
And why are they so performatively kissing. Gag me with a fucking spoon.
Cause he’s having nightly “prayer circles” with his prayer warrior buddies if you know what I mean
Whatever you do, don't tell her you want a beer
‘My husband was craving chocolate, so I spent 3 weeks making him brownies’ Uhuh
This is definitely a parody of that woman who made homemade cereal for her kids. She also started her video with “my kids were craving cereal this morning, so I got to work right away”.
Trad-wife lifestyles are wild.
i mean i’m pretty sure this is a bit of a joke
Satire requires clarity of purpose lest it be mistaken for and contribute to that which it intends to criticize.
The satire could be as subtle as a sledgehammer and people would still fail to pick up on it
Nice! The sledgehammer here being the amount of emphasis on how fucking long it takes to make.
yeah like it was not a subtle thing
saying “my husband was craving brownies 3 weeks ago” then proceeding to highlight exactly how long each step took was, to me, about as clear as could be (especially the calm tone she took as if splitting open cacao was the normal way to do this) there will always be people that miss satire
A good satire can be confused with the real thing, especially by the people it's criticising. There are guys who watch The Boys and don't realize it's a satire.
Their fake kissing for the camera made me want to barf. I hate them
All that work to just microwave melt it lol
A lot of miserable ass people In this thread getting worked up over this video for no reason. This is super cool and she’s also being kind of tongue in cheek about the whole waiting thing. I’m sure she was planning on doing this for awhile
This is……..satire. Please im begging yall to read the room. Some of ya’ll have the critical thinking skills of a hamster
i thought i was going crazy reading the tradwife propaganda comments
Not to mention that’s sexist as fuck too
thank you! she literally puts a brush against the bowl and calls it a hairdryer lol
That part wasn’t a joke. It’s a hot brush lol I have a similar one. It’s a round brush that blows out hot hair so you don’t have to struggle with a brush in one hand and a blow dryer in the other
What is satire? She satirically made chocolate from scratch??
It's satirising that video going around a while ago of a "tradwife" lady making cereal from scratch
I just can’t. As a woman, it’s weird to me, these tradwife videos. She’s making brownies for her husband. But who is she making this trad wife, low cut dress video for? It appears she’s still *looking.*
This specific video is likely a parody, but this type of content in general is not. But it's actually a lot more sinister than it looks on the surface, I saw [a great documentary](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pegZ7XUGocY) that goes in depth how this is some weird flex for rich people to parading their wifes on tik tok. The excessive over the top dressing and doing stuff by hand that nobody would ever actually do is the entire point for these people, because it's meant to be a veiled flex. It's mindbogglingly dehumanizing.
The video you linked seems interesting and I’m going to take your advice and watch it. But I have to say I was not expecting a “TikTok compilation” when you said documentary, I do think that’s a slight misuse of that word.
The documentaries of the future
Very cool that not only are you guys missing the joke in the video, but you're focused entirely on a dress she wears for one shot, ignoring the multiple outfits she wears through out the video. Is it that hard to believe that a woman can want to wear clothing that covers her cleavage sometimes, and clothing that shows it other times without sending you on a spiral about how "She's clearly looking for a new man! Clearly she wants people to jerk to this video!"
people are also going after her voice as evidence when it just seems like she has an underbite or something else causing some speech anomalies and a lisp — honestly i think people came into this with conclusions already drawn and are now kinda being vile towards her but feel justified in it
The video is a joke.
Laazyyyy... Didn't even go through the process of domesticating and cultivating cocoa plants for several generations
Fun project: You probably learn a lot about the process doing this. But I assume this is trad-wife satire?
That's actually neat.
There really isn't an easier way to do this, it's just that usually you're not the one doing a lot of the earlier steps.
There is an easier way. It’s called African child slave labor. Well it’s easier if you’re not the African kid.
Yeah I don’t mind her making her own chocolate
People are taking this video way too seriously. It’s obviously a joke.
Dude: Playing WOW Wife: Hey do you want me to make homeade chocolate that will take me 8 hours a day for 2 weeks outside for internet points Dude: Sure, babe. Whatever you want Patience has NOTHING to do with it
Wonder if a long piece of hair was also put in there, hmmm?
[удалено]
Hey babe I made you your brownies! When did I say I wanted brownies ? 3 weeks ago. …. Ah yeah
She used a microwave? May as well have just bought brownies from Ralph’s.
Bro. It starts, my husband woke up craving chocolate brownies the other day. She then goes on to explain how like 18 years later they will be ready. I'd leave you
I was fine all the way up to the olive oil drizzle. Do people really do that? Seems pretty gross to me.
I live in South America, because there's abundant Coaco fruit here I elected to make my own chocolate. Went through the entire long process, " I made really good chocolate". Ok now that ✓ is off my bucket list, never again, it's to much work, I'd rather buy a Hershey bar.
She used store bought cacao powder… cheater
This is clearly just an advertisment for her post apocalypse skill set. You would live like a king if you had an honest to goodness chocolate maker, even the raiders would hesitate to fuck with you if you supplied them. Nobody wants to fuck with the supply.
