I was just watching this year-old video, enjoying it thoroughly, when I hear my username and an old comment of mine in the video. I apologize for the lightbulb comment—I shouldn’t joke about such matters. I have since learned better. Lightbulb ceviche is the only way to go.
Wow that was harsh! I'm enjoying the show
You're so funny 😆, you should have a stand-up comedy cooking show! I absolutely love What's Eating Dan
HE'S MY FAVORITE!!
It baffles me there are people who don't like dan??? Dan is the reason ATK was on my radar in the first place; I think about the rice and mushroom and brussel sprout and other videos every time I cook dishes with those ingredients 😀 I remember feeling so PUMPED finding Dan's food science videos with actual science (that was simultaneously accessible) when being very frustrated with the more popular "food science" series on the Everyday Food channel. Keep Dan at all costs!
There's no such thing as a dish that's too spicy! 😀
Thank you for taking time to add actual captions for the Deaf
You are a lightbulb Dan! AND irreplaceable. So please don’t go anywhere.
Don’t ever replace Dan. He’s the reason I watch. I have a huge crush on him
I don’t know what the trolls are talking about. I love your show! It’s so informative but presented in a modern way.
I know I am late but … Dan is the ONLY reason I am sub to this channel.
Light Bulb sauce
Love you Dan, you’re my favorite ATK person!

Does adding Splenda or sugar substitute can lower the spice dish without adding calories and use less volume?
I can't do spicy as in heat. I can handle medium for a little while but I have a geographic tongue and it gets really really painful!
Do I have bad memory, or did Dan explain in another show that fat was good at enhancing flavours, and moving them to the tongue… so basically, adding fat to a spicy meal would, probably, only make it worse.
Maybe the commenter replacing you wants to have a go at explaining food as great, informative, and entertaining as you…That would be interesting to watch…😏
Lol, I subscribed because I liked your show. I like the product reviews but that's not worth the subscribe so I would leave too.
Dan is a daddy without being a father, if you get what I mean. Anyone saying to replace him is insane.
avocado would work in the salsa.
I'm going to throw sugar and butter at Dan because he's so spicy. 🥺
Salt and umami also work pretty well in making too-spicy food more palatable.
Somebody about to make me throw hands. Don't come for Dan like that.
Hey Dan 🙂 👋
Science baby onesies. Make it happen 🙂
Very boring
If the salsa is part of a warm dish, e.g. asado de puerco, a poco stew, etc., you can toss in some squash and remove after a while. That will bring down the heat. I believe leaving raw squash in a cold salsa overnight might have the same effect, but I haven't tried it yet, though.
I believe that "replacing Dan" must have been a joke. Tage out as such, man! You're great!
Dan, I apologize for saying that! But sometimes you have a lack of energy which drains those who are watching the show. Scientifically speaking you’ve got a lot going on! And you really should teach your work cohorts there that there is no heat in the seeds of a pepper! If I said it about two dozen times.
Who the heck are these “replace Dan” people????? Do they think they’re being wry and hip? 🙄🙄🙄🙄
So speaking of spicy and cold, I once had a meal that was so spicy I had probably a gallon of ice water. I was simultaneously shivering because my core temps were low, and sweating excessively because the spiciness. It's a terribly unique feeling 😜
Dan,
It sounds like an awful lot of your viewers need to grow a sense of humor…
Dan, you are adorable and funny.
Here's to Dan. He's our man. Someone to replace him? No one can 😁
I add blended avocado to bring down heat in a salsa.
