I wonder how much fresh orange juice and waffles you have to eat for breakfast to justify the cost. The plastic juicer just adds to the microplastic garbage dump in your gut.
Can you use the double griddle on a glass top?

Troy: Doctor, are you sure it's on?
Dr. Nick: IT'S WHISPER QUIET!
No bread toaster?
Fresh squeezed BJ in the morning is THE best.
That's what she said.
Sure while you rich Test Kitchen billionaires get fresh juice and homemade waffles us poor peasants get tang and a store brand "pop-tart".
Is it sad my first thought with the juicers was like juice for margaritas??
Orange juice is good but not recommended by nutritionists.
Hmm it's true that Marketers are liers, talking about the Rolls Royce of citrus prizes and then he doesn't know that citrus fruits are never rotated but just squeezed! To have maximum sweetness Without acidity of the peel!! 🙊🙈🙉 No comment! 🤦
How many people have $100 to spend on a waffle maker? You should always include a low budget option for us poor folk.
Essential? I don't think so.
For the grill pan, the best is All-Clad HA1 Griddle Nonstick
I have a juicer similar to that plastic one and it does a great job. It’s loud, and if you use the adjustable pulp ring a bit hard to clean.
I also have a Cuisenart standard waffle maker that is going on 25 years or more and it still makes great waffles!
We like our Cuisinart panini press with waffle plates. It does a great job, and it takes up less space because you have one appliance with different uses. You only need to purchase the waffle plates.
Why not putting the juice to glass to compare amounts
Maybe. Pbs is an unreliable source of facts.
Donate to planned parenthood.
Sangers mission is going great.
I thought you recommended the Presto waffle maker. I bought it on your recommendation and have been very happy with it.
am I the only one who gets sick from orange juice?
I get sick from orange juice but love actual oranges and eating them alone is fine.
try to avoid plastic juicers. you're going to be getting a bit of plastic in the juice using one
Breakfast? Hell no.
Cuisinart no longer sells that modle waffle maker. It's not been made in a year. The new version has a simple slide control. How old is this video?
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 😍 😘
The link in the description for the Cuisinart waffle maker is incorrect, it shows a different model from Breville
Could have used this video about a week ago.
my hamilton beach manual citrus juicer is over 50 years old, and is still going strong!
The Breville Juicer is the best but if you’re not in the mood to lug out that baby there are manual juicer that are heavy duty and juice very well at a fraction of the Breville price . I got mine from India so if you are traveling to India make sure to pick one up you won’t regret it.
👍✌️Happy Holidays
What I'll need is a new home to store all this stuff, LOL.
My favorite tools for breakfast? My mouth and some food!
