V Sauce Food Facts ★ Food Tube Live


[Music]
we’ll have a little YouTube sort of
phenomena which is Michael from Vsauce
everyone Michael here an object is
whatever color it doesn’t absorb time
travel which is what gives a sunrise in
a sunset
there column and site look fit for the
people that might not know Vsauce tell
them what your channels all about
Vsauce is about how amazing the universe
is everything if you look closely enough
is phenomenal let’s talk about food
which is what we’re going to be doing
today the banana okay looks tame it
looks safe bananas are one of the most
radioactive foods we eat what yeah yeah
when it comes to potassium on earth a
pretty big ratio of those potassium
atoms are radioactive isotopes get a
good source of potassium around you eat
200 of these 200 bananas is the
equivalent of one chest x-ray so this
one just came in from Jimmy at way to
dusty death but it’s a fun fact kind of
and I’ve always wanted this myself he
says if you only ate rabbit you would
die but you can survive on honey alone
now hold on Jimmy I’ve always wondered
this I’ve always wanted to be like a dog
you know dogs could just eat dog food
like and that’s it what’s the one food a
human can eat he says honey we’re not
convinced I’ve heard it’s the milk of a
human really could we survive our whole
lives on our on our mother’s milk yeah
could we
I tried as long as I could but could we
could we make cheese with it to make it
more interesting buffering ice cream out
of ice cream just to get keep it keep
the variety going could we have it on
strawberries don’t be cheating it and
only it and live the rest of your life
on only that interesting what about the
cannibals what do we have for them guess
what if you ate the average human body
that would be a hundred and fifteen
thousand calories so pace yourself
that’s average now or average 24 you
know thirty years ago that’s an average
now okay
great question came in from guy Larson
at guy lar I’ve always wondered this he
says in outer space does water boil or
freeze does it boil from a lack of
pressure or freeze because it’s freakin
outer space what do you think when you
got safe freeze freeze boom please guess
what everyone I’m from America where
everyone’s a winner
in fact everyone’s a winner because it
does both in outer space
liquid water well not at the same time
in space liquid water immediately boils
off it vaporizes and then it
crystallizes into a sort of outerspace
snow it’s very pretty what also is
pretty are black lights ultraviolet
lights we’ve got a huge one down here
they make white things like your teeth
and your shoelaces glow because those
items absorb the ultraviolet light and
reflect it in a way that we can see is
visible light but here’s a neat trick
with tonic water tonic water contains
quinine or quinine Quinton as you might
also say Quinn Nina which is a wonderful
fluorescing compound watch what happens
this is a glass of regular tap water and
when I turn on the blacklight boring we
see a few purples but that’s just the
the the long rather the short
wavelengths but there’s a lot of
ultraviolet energy coming off of this
bulb and watch what happens when I take
our tonic water brand-new bottle and I’m
gonna pour this on in and watch it mix
and absorb and fluoresce
there’s the tonic yeah
so the quinine into the quinine or the
Quinny okay that’s how the turkeys say
it either way its chemical properties
are always the same it absorbs
ultraviolet and it sends it out as
visible glowing light it’s a great way
to make jellies or jello that glow or
cocktails that glow under black light
some fun examples also just drinking it
and then look it in your mouth under a
blacklight is really scary and cool
there’s a food back for you we might as
well ask Michael some killer little food
facts about turkeys I bet you’ve got
something up your sleeve well here’s the
thing we’re in the UK right now the UK
during Christmas eats a million of these
guys okay
but hold on America where I’m from
during Thanksgiving 860 million of these
birds Benjamin Franklin wanted the
turkey to be the national bird for the
United States of course we went with the
bald eagle but if he had gotten his way
the US would not have been eating these
guys because he couldn’t have eaten they
would have been amazing symbols of
America don’t say that we don’t give you
good quality content on foodtube
