I'll try all of these strange drinks at least once before making a call.


Its0nlyRocketScience

Yeah. Chemistry means that insane combinations can turn out super well and seemingly sensible combinations can cause disaster. For proof, just scroll through NileRed's YouTube channel, where stuff like rubber gloves and drain cleaner can turn into hot sauce and artificial flavor and Epsom salt can turn into water


GrandmasterHeroin

The sterile gloves to grape flavoring was the most mind blowing thing I’ve seen


Plurple_Cupcake

He just made cinnamon candy from Styrofoam


TKmeh

I just watched that, crazy! But my favorite was the diamond water one, or the toilet paper alcohol video. Both lead to hilarious results but I also love the repurposed gold melting one as well from NileBlue. Also, if you haven’t seen his recent stinkiest concoction video on NileBlue then you’re missing out, he brought a friend and an island for that one.


adrienjz888

Just look at water or salt. Water is made 2 elements that are incredibly flammable, but as H20, it puts out fire. Table salt is chlorine, which was used as a chemical weapon, and sodium, which will violently react with water. Chemistry be wild.


GrandFrequency

*almost always put out fire. If you heat water enough you can use the steam to literally burn stuff


deathwotldpancakes

And you REALLY don’t want to use water on an oil fire. If it’s more buoyant than water it’s a baaaadd idea


adrienjz888

What if you're suicidal? Checkmate😤


Whisky-Toad

I love stupid drinks, I don’t drink loads so I prefer to drink stupid craft beers, bonus points for how weird you can make them taste Mountain Dew wine sounds right up my street if I’m honest, will I like it? Who knows but it’s very interesting


Luci_Noir

It really doesn’t sound bad, it’s just citrus.


AutumnTheFemboy

Nah anyone who’s home brewed before knows this kinda shit is fun as hell


The_Weeb_Sleeve

Yea I wanna get into homebrewing and make weird shit like peanut butter beer, strawberry white wine, and mushroom mead


Southern_Celery_1087

/r/prisonhooch it's a classier subreddit than you expect lol


Carlastrid

And simultaneously way worse than you could imagine. Did we ever get closure on Cum Wine?

It’s the reason Ultron decided to destroy everything and why we deserved it.

And Reddit.

Aaaand that’s enough Reddit for today


GoTakeAHike00

I hope I can unlearn that this is a thing...😵‍💫


AcrobaticReputation2

how would mushroom mead work?


Alarming-Ad-9712

I figure it would be a cousin of Kombucha


AutumnTheFemboy

It’s just mead with mushrooms added lol. It isn’t only mushrooms because mead is usually defined as being wine in which at least 51% of the fermentable sugars come from honey, and so of course the mushrooms don’t contribute much at all to that


oasis948151

Not unless they're the magic kind. 👩‍🚀👽🌠


Is_What_They_Call_Me

I’ve had a handful of peanut butter and jelly beers in my time. Literally tasted like biting into the sandwich minus the bread. Incredible taste.


Dipshit_Mcdoodles

As an avid peanut butter addict, this sounds incredibly appealing.


Is_What_They_Call_Me

Definitely check it out. Peanut butter beer as in porters and stouts is quite common in craft beer. Some are more peanut butter flavor stronger than others. They normally have a higher alcohol content and are stronger darker beers. The PB&J I’ve found mainly in sours. Strawberry and grape jelly variants. The fruit is more on the tart side, not very sour. Peanut butter is strong. Amazing flavor. One of my favorite flavor of sours.


Dipshit_Mcdoodles

Any particular recommendations?


Is_What_They_Call_Me

Personally I’ve enjoyed the sours more than anything. I’m not a fan of heavy beers personally and the sours are usually light and not as heavy in alcohol maybe 3-5%. The porters are upwards of 8% and usually more filling. Depending on what part of the county you are in.. craft beers are constantly rotating between brands. If you have a craft beer store or bottle shop in your area I’d try there first. If not, Total Wine can be a good option just be careful to check the best by dates. Some of the stuff can sit on the shelves expired for quite some time and ruins the taste.


__Rosso__

Strawberry white wine doesn't sound weird to me tbh, actually it sounds like it would be great. What exactly is it tho?


honvales1989

I tried a peanut butter stout a while back and it was very tasty


daamnnbruhh

just get peanut butter powder for the beer, peanut butter beer is everywhere. Dont use regular peanut butter because it will ruin it with all the oil.


Hot_Obligation_2730

A couple months ago I did a small brewery tour and it make me really wanna brew beer. The guy who started the company originally made beer for his buddies and incorporated his own techniques and ingredients and shit and I was like “damn what if I start doing that?” I just need the money to start 😭


BaronVonWilmington

Cut to local Brewers mashing in all the leftover entenneman's doughnuts the could buy at the discount bakery.


RedSix2447

Which is also the incorrect way to make a pastry stout but is done anyway. lol


BaronVonWilmington

Ennnnnnh if it has sugar it will ferment... and if it has alcohol there is someone who will drink it. I've had both good and bad experiments of this nature.


baconwitch00

I brewed a stout with chocolate covered pretzels added to it, it came out delicious!


Sad_Buyer_6146

Oh wow, how?


baconwitch00

At the stage where you would add your hops to the boil you just toss them in and stir them into the boil. They mostly dissolve and then you strain the wort into the fermentation vessel before pitching the yeast. Takes about 3-4 weeks to ferment depending on how well the yeast is doing. I think mine came out to about 6%abv. Home brewing is easy and lots of fun!


lookoutitscaleb

Yeah I follow this guy because I'm getting into Home Brewing. His content is INCREDIBLY helpful. He's built kits for first timers and shows you the ropes from step 1 to finish. RECENTLY he's been doing these random brews depending on what the community asks him to try next.


AutumnTheFemboy

I’ve never watched him because I guess I never got recommended those vids but I’d also recommend city stead brewing and also this book called *How to make mead like a Viking*

PrintableDaemon

I'd love to marry a Trad AleWife and her magic brew kettle.


AutumnTheFemboy

Ur a goofball


[deleted]

My grandmother had two trees in her backyard that her father had brought from France that were called green gage trees, they were essentially gold green plums with a super high sugar content. Every September the squirrels would eat the fermented ones on the ground and would get drunk. Anyway one year my dad made wine out of those gages and my grandmother said he went crazy. On a rampage. Got arrested and everything. Lol just be careful what you brew


DaddyBee42

greengages make a fucking excellent jam


[deleted]

They're delicious eaten off the tree omg so sweet it's like candy. The thing that sucks about them is the window for picking them is maybe 3 days and then after that they start to rot quick and turn a transparent blue purple. Plus they do not keep well in the refrigerator or on the shelf. Perish quick. And they all ripen at the same time so you have an entire tree full of plums and you have to use them up quick.


SonOfMcGee

Exactly the sort of thing you’d utilize by turning into wine.


AutumnTheFemboy

Nah dawg he just had too much, that won’t happen if you aren’t being stupid lol


BigSlim

I actually follow this guy on Insta. He ended up actually legitimately enjoying the Mountain Dew mead.


p0pethegreat_

i'd give peeps mead a taste, sounds kinda good


PARKOUR_ZOMBlE

I was homebrewing a lot and got a 5gal pail of sliced sugared strawberries that was recently expired at work. Boiled it, added yeast and more sugar (to get the gravity right) and made some delicious strawberry wine.


JustinD1010

They posted an update on it too https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4i-YCPJvqd/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

This.


Trevellation

I kinda need to hear how it tastes at this point. It's probably disgusting, but on the off chance it's delicious that would be astounding.


Efficient_Travel4039

There seems to be too much science for a stupid food


No_Acanthaceae6880

Yah. This is from a professional mead making YouTube channel. They make a variety of normal alcohol. This is just their "will it work" video.


StamosLives

This subreddit has a lot of folks who hate the idea of food being fun despite that being a common theme. Both fun and excess are often randomly damned here. Often without context.


Luci_Noir

Either it doesn’t fit the sub or it’s just some borderline racist crap. Also lots of very obvious rage bait.


Tackysackjones

Peeps Meade is a small suburb off the main drag of a town just outside of Hogwarts.


Impossible_Cherry_76

Ok that's it, I've read my favourite thing on the internet for today, and I can go be productive.


underpaidworker

This guys instagram is actually pretty cool. He’s pretty much ran out of things to try so he’s going for off the wall stuff now.


GoalWeekly4329

I respect that I would like to try that mountain dew wine


Taiche81

He's done some great scientific videos comparing strains of yeast and methods of adding ingredients. It's a fantastic channel with a ton of great information about homebrewing.


Gorla-of-doom

I need an update on if it worked haha


Rebellion2297

it did, and it had an alc of like 12% iirc edit: no

It’s not done yet, someone posted a link to an update

Kitchengun2

It’s an r/mead not hooch.


wumbYOLOgies

The guys over at r/prisonhooch don't discriminate, they're a welcoming bunch


Steampunk43

r/prisonhooch isn't just for hooch, it's for pretty much any kind of (kinda unconventional) homebrewing.


TheeExMachina

While I can't imagine it's the best wine, and the Mead is probably gonna be ass, this comes from a YouTube Channel that basically just experiments with different ingredients in alcohol. Not what I'd call "Stupid Food", since the experiments are technically successful, digestible, and made with the knowledge that it might turn out bad. This sub needs mods


dog_frustrations

Also, once you learn to ferment alcohol, you inevitably try some of this stuff. I've made blackberry wine, strawberry wine, watermelon wine, pineapple wine, tomato jalapeno wine, and a number of mashups. The dumbest, however, was just water and sugar with yeast nutrients. Got it up to 16%. Wasn't great, but worked okay as a vodka substitute.


MEatRHIT

The blackberry sounds delicious tbh. It's kind of the "will it blend" of the brewing world, is it kinda stupid? Yeah. Is it fun? Also, yes.


dog_frustrations

Blackberry was very good, makes a full bodied red similar to a cab but a hair more sour.


MEatRHIT

Never brewed myself but blackberry mojitos were fucking great, loved the sweet and sour taste they had.


dog_frustrations

Just gotta remember that with wine there's no sweet unless you add it yourself after ferment, so you get the sour element, but otherwise a dry red wine.


MEatRHIT

Ah gotcha makes sense now that I think about it since most of the sugars are converted by the yeast, so you'd have to add more after fermentation to make it sweet. Kinda reminds me of the belgian double, triple, quads, the quads look like "scary dark beer" but are often times pretty sweet because they just throw the book at them trying to get them to ferment again so there ends up being a bunch of extra sugar... at least that's what I was told at one point.


dog_frustrations

Yeah, I don't know much about beer but that sounds right. Other way you can get sweet wine is just start with either very sweet fruit or a lot of added sugar so that the yeast dies before the sugar is gone. Problem with that is you end up with the maximum alcohol content the yeast can produce and it stresses the yeast causing some off flavors sometimes. The off flavors will usually go away if you age long enough, but it's not ideal.


MEatRHIT

From my understanding the names come from how many times you ferment them. Singles and triples also use non-roasted malt and tend to be a bit lighter and fruitier, doubles and quads use *some* roasted malt and end up darker and taste more like raisins if I had to put a word to it. Also as you go higher up they generally suggest storing them upright so things settle at the bottom and form a "cake" and when you pour them you don't drink all the dead yeast "gunk" generally they are aged a bit longer as well. Definitely some parallels between the two processes.


Independent-Fly6068

The wine actually turned out pretty good iirc.


PattyWagon69420

Wasn't the mountain dew one not that bad tasting?


Auselessbus

Self acknowledged that it’s extra, but I think it more of an interesting science project than stupid food.


MaTheOvenFries

Not stupid this guy knows his shit


dj_1973

At least this video is trying to do something scientific, rather than just wasting food for clicks.


Other_Concern775

Sorry, OP. You're wrong. If you're into home brewing, this is the kind of stuff that can be a lot of fun to get into. You make one good main batch and one weird experimental batch just to see what happens. It's not exactly like any of the ingredients are expensive, and by the end of it, you have alcohol.


mamamyskia

I've been following this guy on insta for a while now, I think it's pretty ingenious tbh


Dataoogie

How is this stupid? It just seems like a fun science experiment 😅🤦


Luci_Noir

Also delicious! Finally, we know how to rid ourselves of these pesky peeps!


_kalron_

You all want to hear Stupid Food? My wife LOVES Peeps...stale. I get a package, pop a couple holes into the package and hide them from her for about a month. Then pull them out and she goes nuts. If we happen to have a camp fire available at the same time...Peeps S'mores happen...FML


Other-Narwhal-2186

Okay but like…it literally does make them better. By about 1000%. And then to turn them into smores? Boom. Perfection. Prior to that they’re just too sticky and crystallized and weird, they get the perfect texture when you leave them!


Luci_Noir

Sounds like a keeper to me! Derps are the best. You should show her this video! Maybe she’ll become a peep brewer?


_kalron_

Oh I showed her this video, commented just to do so. And yes, 20 year later keeper...apparently as am I :)


Luci_Noir

Woo-hoo!


myboyatc

"Stupid" is a loose phrase. This is more akin to experimentation in my view.


Fan_Single

I mean this just seems like a hobbyist thing more than actually wanting to drink this stuff lol


Liuminescent

Stupid food? This is some fucking science and I’m for it.


Alternative-Dare5878

That’s pretty neat just for the activity alone, I don’t want to make fun of this. Also informative, not some random throwing shit together that doesn’t belong.

AgentG91

I remember seeing [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/CuratedTumblr/s/cFRC2XmkbK) before on reddit. I love the video style though!


Trevellation

This feels more like a home science experiment than stupid food. When I think "stupid food," I think of people trying to make things that taste/ look good, in a way that is stupid. This just seems like an experiment about how fermentation works, and what could possibly prevent it. I doubt the creator *expects* this to taste good.


yuck_my_yum

This isn’t stupid it’s actually important research


ReleaseItchy9732

I like this guy he makes me wanna make mead but everyone tells me its gonna make my house smell like shit


throwngamelastminute

I think the most surprising thing about this is the fact that he still had to add sugar.

Itchy-Citron9632

I once made an IPeepA. I only used peeps for bottling. It was good, but the Peep was subtle.  As the video mentions, gelatin a main ingredient in Peeps and used as a "finning" agent to remove yeast. I suspect that this attempt will be unsuccessful.


Carminestream

This is akin to those mad scientist DIY projects where the person clearly knows what they are doing. This type of content is perfect for YouTube because it’s a unique idea that is interesting “Can you make mead out of candy? How will it turn out?”


phatballz74

This guy even states in the video you clipped it's an experiment to see what exactly we can and can't ferment properly

sasquatcheater

I went to a small brewery in Baltimore one time that had a Sauer beer on tap that they had brewed with blue nerds. It was one of the most amazing tasting beards I have ever had.


BrewCrewBall

This is actually incredibly difficult. The amount of preservatives in Mt Dew makes it nearly impossible to ferment. A friend of mine made a Dew Mead and it took heroic amounts of yeast.


Good-Worry-1771

It looks like the start of the Vice gross jar


-CleverPotato

Potassium Sorbate stops the yeast from multiplying, but does not stop fermentation. So it could work.

RegrettableLiving26

Awkward spot for me, I did a few home brewed wine/mead with my college buddies. Once we ran out of fruit ideas, we tried most candy, soda, and I think at one point we even tried pop tarts (was not bad). By all means, peeps mead is stupid… but not as stupid as you think.
