The only thing we're missing at this point is MatPat trying to cook a Christmas tree with the entirety of his laundry room.
Maybe next year
Edit: yeah that's not happening-
Can't wait to see this video out next year!
while trying to overcome the final dab sauce
Don't give him any ideals.
Or combine it with self rising flour and make christmas tree cake.
As someone who is allergic to pine trees, these seasonal videos make me realize that I need to consider my allergy a food allergy now.
That is beautiful
May have to consider my pollen allergy too. Hopefully they don’t try cedar trees next.
Lol, here I am sitting here wondering what they taste like and forgetting that my mom has that same allergy XD guess I'm not making that for family Christmas dinner XD
'ok and do you have any food allergies?'
'pine cones.'
My sister also has a pine allergy. We discovered that when we lived in Georgia.
Hearing Stephanie say “fa-la-la-la-lafel “ made me realize just how perfect she and matpat are for each other
It reminds all of us that we don't have a boyfriend for Christmas
it reminds me how I dont have rizz
@@commode7x even the men?
@@alensday2974 especially
Bruh, It's a script
Gonna miss watching MatPat struggle to find a way to eat his Christmas tree every year
Fr
Now Santi is obligated to try to eat MatPat's Christmas tree
Matpat should come back every year for this one as a like special
This could also be seen as the end if this series though as they finally figured out how to eat a Christmas tree
Glad(?) to see that MatPat is continuing this tradition of eating his Christmas tree
Don't read my name!
😂😂
@@Dont_Read_My_Picture I remember the first person who did this, and it was actually funny... Stop. Its not funny anymore.
I'm not mad they stole the idea, I'm mad they didn't have a better idea
True i am too
ah yes, Christmas is right around the corner. Presents are being wrapped, cookies being baked for Santa, stockings hung by the chimney with care, and Matpat eating the Christmas tree
😂😂😂
He might die soon
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire~
MatPat nibbling mistletoe~
I love wrapping my parents
Yeah that checks out
Public Awareness Announcement: Don't try to eat fake Christmas trees. They aren't trees. They are toxic in most cases. Don't eat plastic trees folks. Thank you for your time. Merry Christmas
Mine is delicious I don’t know what you’re talking about.
Stop spreading misinformation and let kids eat their microplastics & fiberglass 😡
I think the replies weren't expected...
What do you mean? They’re clearly super edible and definitely non toxic, why else do they stay for 50 years perfectly fine and are so shiny like an m&m? You should definitely eat the clearly labeled fake trees.
I burn my fake christmas trees
10:17
"I quit, I quit" - MatPat, foreshadowing
Thats an expression but you might be true
it hits hard
I was about to say this
I almost cried and laughed at the same time
The lore... THE LOREEEEE!!!!
MatPat is the only person who would watch his family unwrap their christmas gifts, and ask himself "Can you EAT a christmas tree?"
Forreal
He was poor once, so it makes sense
I never thought that one of my Christmas traditions would be watching a man trying to eat a Christmas tree but here we are.
It has been a strange journey.
me neither.
Well, we are already on the ride the first time we glance at his video, so here we are.
I love how Mat keeps putting stuff in his mouth during the process even when he shouldn't, because he's a curious guy! He's got to know and understand! Much to the detriment of his tastebuds
I love that Steph looked at us when Mat ate the pollen like with the addittude of "Seriously".
ah yes, my yearly holiday tradition of watching matpat aggressively and desperately try to consume a christmas tree. cant have christmas without it
75 likes and no comment. Let me help you out.
150 likes and only one comment. Let me help you out.
Yup it’s now all are Christmas tradition now
I'm just imaging a rabid matpat having to be held away from a Christmas tree like that one meme with the dog(?)
Honestly, where wood we be without great theories like this? So glad MatPat chose to branch out into newer channels to allow us to watch such incredible content.
Fantastic tree puns
the tree puns just get better and better
Let curiosity take root in your heart, people.
Treemendous puns indeed
HE CHOSE TO WHAT?
10:17 that aged… well? Not well? I’ll miss you matpat:)
Yikes
THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING
Its insane how matt can run FOUR channels at once and still pump out videos every week
I'm starting to worry about MatPat, it's been two weeks since he's posted a video on Food Theory. 😭
He no longer is the sole runner of it, that’s why the theorist team is so big. The theory concept is also technically owned by someone else now, and he has an agreement with the company to keep x people hired for at least y amount of time
That one didn’t age quite so well.
bruh
Oof
Honestly, you've reached the point where I would expect to see all of these in high-end restaurants
Seasonal food truck, anyone?
It would not feel like Christmas without Matt Pat trying to eat his Christmas tree 😂
Don't read my name!
@@Dont_Read_My_PictureI didn't
With a pun bad enough to make his wife want to smack him
Its a weird world when its not Christmas without Matt trying to eat the tree. 😂
I'm sorry.
I’ll miss the tradition of MatPat eating a christmas tree year :,(
I just realized this might be the last Christmas tree eater video. We are going to miss you matpat
Please don't end this tradition - we would all like to see other ways that you can eat a Christmas tree
I feel just like how they steeped pine in cream n such for ice cream, they could to make chocolate pine truffles
Idea: turn the pine needles into powder (see: onion powder, garlic powder) and use it as a seasoning.
Concerned about the pesticide they're consuming though. :(
@@iamthirdytI think it’s a natural tree
Mat will just have to move it into the other theory channel: how to WEAR a christmas tree next year.. but that's just a theory.... a STYLE theory!
Watching MatPat and Steph interact on camera is a bigger “treet” than the icetreem. It’s always so fun to watch them together
Yeah. They make a good treem. I’m so glad they’ve branched out. I mean, they’re treely blooming. I just wish they wood do something with Chris Pine.
14:03 THAT IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST FLEX EVER
Is it true???
@@Not_Jennifer-nr6rs No. Oprah has been married since 1986.
“Forgive me father for I have sinned”
“Deep fry it”
This episode's "dishes" would make for a weird craving... Imagine pregnancy cravings be like "a deep fried Christmas tree would be amazing right now!"
XD
Usually the Theorist puns make me smile at best, or shake my head at worst, but Steph's "Fa la la la lafel" actually made me laugh.
Truly shows who should be left to making the puns on this show. 👀 kidding, love ya matpat!
Mat's a dad, his head is just dad jokes
She got him back for the treelology one
i have heard it before (i think)
I was about to make this comment. Her clap back with Fa-la-la-la-lafels had me rolling
I realy hope that this christmas team theorist is going to continue the tree eating tradition
Food theory idea: What's the best thing to eat or drink to get rid of a fever or a cold? I've heard a lot of things about warm citrine drinks and chicken broth, but what's the science behind it. Just want this to fever to leave me alone.
Okay, I know we all shake our heads on the puns at times, but Stephanie just crushed it with the "Fa-la-la-la-lafel". She saw it, she went for it and she took no prisoners - and we should be thanking her for it.
i fa-la-la-la-laughed hard at that one
The hol8day falafel
The thing I love about mat is that he’s always doing the what our intrusive thoughts are suggesting for us to do
Don't read my name!
This comment hurts to read
@@BigPunDude what is your problem ??
The last time matpat will eat his own tree.
Matt, I'm actually still surprised that Steph hasn't ended you for pulling that sawdust-cookie stunt on her.
I do still love seeing you try to eat your freaking christmas tree. And it looks like it goes better at least. Though nearly everything is better than the first two tries you had there.
LOL, Matt start listening to Steph every once in a while... especially when she tells you not to eat something.
"It's a Falalalalafel!" Pffft, I LOVE it. xD
Oh, yeah, Milk and stuff are usually fine as long as it tastes fine.
If I had a nickel for every time MatPat tried to eat a Christmas Tree, I'd have three nickels.
Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened thrice.
Tree nickels hahaa ;)
@@JustAnotherPerson811 i was just going to say that.😂😅
@@JustAnotherPerson811lol😂
@@JustAnotherPerson811just came here to say that
MatPat prides himself on his Christmas puns. Then his better half absolutely destroys him with “fa-la-la-la-lafel.” 10:07 🤣
Best name for a dish ever!
I think she destroyed us all with that one, the timing was perfect!
i audibly laughed for that one
"it is your duty to make something that is bad, and then work at it until it is good"
Brian David Gilbert.
I’m so glad he did this again before he retires! Hopefully Santi continues the tradition.
We usually just cut off all the branches and leave the wood to dry. The branches are put in the garden to protect the flowers from the cold. By next Christmas it's dry enough to burn it with the other fire wood.
I love these episodes where it's just Steph and Matt in the kitchen. The chemistry is just
Her wanting to smack him with for the puns, only to hit back with one later
I mean, they're married, and Steph has a Bachelor's degree in chemistry and a Master's in pharmacology, so the gods would be very upset if they didn't have chemistry 😁
I just love Stephanie's little "Ohh..." at MatPat trying to nom on the little rock-hard pinecone.
[Edit] Steph is just absolutely fantastic this whole episode.
I feel like her off-the-cuff "Fa-la-la-la-lafel" beat out all of MatPat's carefully crafted puns.
The way she puts up with some of the torture of matpat is fun
I can only imagine what Mat and Steph's neighbors think of them... "Oh yeah, our quirky neighbor family who eats their christmas tree every year."
Who is re watching after the goodbye internet video was up
I am
Watching MatPat slowly decend into insanity is my Christmas present this year
Omg so true😂😂😂
Glad to see this theory wasn't all *Bark* and no bite. A well deserved win for Food Theory. Now we just need a restaurant that would offer this *Tree* course meal for the Christmas season. I wonder what will be the next Christmas special, but I hope it'll be something as over the top as a pine tree. Hope to see these recipes and have a chance to try them: the "Fa-la-la-lafel" sounds really great.
(I'm really sorry for the puns. I felt inspired)
This is something I didn’t know I needed
@@jaylasfamilythat was true poetry
The restaurant would at least be on the of normal restaurants, and higher!
Don’t apologize, this is amazing
@@Mylife-cluelessyou mean poetree.
I loved this episode! It was so good! I always love seeing a classic Matt and Steph episode, and it was great watching them do such a good job making a pine tree edible! Being allergic to pollen as I am, I don't think I'd be able to try this, but it's so cool to see how much can be done.
1:03 that video actually got me into foraging for pine tips!
This has become a holiday tradition now, and I’m all for it!!!
yess
Don't read my name!
ik right
"'I'm"
@@Dont_Read_My_Picture ok
I really want a cookbook for all these crazy recipes. Would seem on brand for a food channel.
Same!
YES!! I wanna try making some of these!!
Same hereeee. I want to try Santi's recipes! They sound awesome~
MatPat pin 📍 this comment right here and do it!
I have been enlightened. THANK YOU!
A BIG win for Team Theorist! Great job Matthew! You finally can eat your tree and enjoy it :D
Fun milk fact: it is really hard for milk to expire so long as it is kept. Even if it is discolored, smelling, and tasting bad, it is still edible, if you're brave enough.
Adam Conover from Adam Ruins Everything explains it a lot better than I, so go find the clip if you wanna know more.
Next year I want to see Theorist actually buy the right kind of Christmas tree and then make this food from it to tell us DEFINITIVELY how much food you can make from your Christmas tree and whether it would be reasonable to eat it all before it expires
That is my biggest concern. How much actual tree is used to produce the "ingredients" in a tree-course meal? When I google it, I'm seeing that 6% of the log's volume becomes sawdust at a sawmill, so we'd be dealing with 3 pounds of sawdust from a 50-lb tree. That leaves 47 pounds of needles, branches, and trunk to cook up as well.
Honestly, I think the best way to "eat" a Christmas tree is to grind it up into mulch, mix it with mycelium, and use it to grow edible mushrooms.
"If you were snowed in, how long could you last on eating your Christmas tree alone?"
@@benwagner5089 Your math needs some revisiting. Volume measures volume, not mass.
Also, the sawdust _is_ branches and trunk. Stopping the blade at 3 lbs sawdust seems real arbitrary. Grind it, dry it, and a 50 lb tree should net you about 20 lbs of sawdust. Maybe that's 6% of the volume, I've no idea.
Good point on the self-made.
Buying tree-based ingredients/compounds is intriguing, but I'd also like to see options for an actual tree.
My family just sat with me for few minutes and watched you explaining freeze dryers, so they asked me what are you doing (they don't speak english). The look of horror on their faces as i told them you are trying to eat the christmas tree was the best gift i could ever ask for. Thank you, Theorists!
XD nice
4:08 cute almost exactly the way oilie did it 🤣
honestly one of my favorite series in the entire channel, hoping that santi continues this!
Now we need the calculation of how many meals like this would you have to eat in order to truly consume your 🎄
Yes!!
Please make it mat pat!
10:11
Can we appreciate how smooth Steph was with this one?
Nice
LOL yewh
I would expect the xylem to be the easiest part of the tree to find recipes for. Just look at how many foods contain cellulose or cellulose gum, which is often made from sawdust. If they don't know or care what they're eating, it's common for people to actually prefer cake made with a batter which is about 1/3 cellulose.
10:11 I LAUGHED SO HARD THAT WAS GREAT- Mat deserved that after all the bad tree puns
MATPAT: Feeds his wife cookies, giggles. It's literally sawdust.
STEPH: What why?
Me watching: so did she know getting together with MatPat would lead to eating tree shaped cookies made from the literal tree. How many random things has mat done for the name of science and theory. Do we want to know?
Probably not
IKR?! 😂
makes me wonder why Ollie is REALLY here
As someone who's allergic to pine/ Christmas trees, I can feel myself breaking out into hives just at the thought of this meal. Can't believe I found a new thing to be afraid to eat.
Well Mat Pat is one to invoke fear into people.
You're talking about the russian pine jam, right? I don't think you have anything else to really worry about
@@stevdor6146 McDonald Christmas nuggets
Finally! I've never encountered another person allergic to pine!
And I'd like to add that I'm also extremely lactose intolerant, so pine ice cream is just kicking me while I'm down
My mom is too! She even has to take meds and wear a mask when in a room where someone uses Pine-Sol. Even then she gets a headache, even when the scent isn't strong.
1- Fa-la-la-la-lafel
2- Sawdust cheesecake base?
3- Please do a theory to educate people on best before/use by dates, and other shelf life labelling e.g. 'once opened, use within...'
he finally did it, the madlad
he cooked a christmas tree
i wish I couldve tried it too XD
happy holidays Theorist crew, you guys are amazing
Steph's face at 7:28, matt's at 12:52.. amazing. The puns were on point, the reactions amusing. This entire episode was fantastic.
This channel is gonna be the reason Pine flavored items are going to be a thing in the future. (Like Pumpkin flavored everything)
Forget pumpkin spice, it`s fine to eat pine!
Fine pine dine
@@djamtz yes i'm here for puns
@@AntonsVoice open a restaurant that only sells pine-flavored things, call it Pine Dining
@@djamtz its fine to dine on pine.
Man it would be my dream to work for these guys, you made my childhood amazing and it would mean the world to give back to you guys.
Okay this is so cool keep finding ways to eat your tree Mat!!! ❤ given its summer for Christmas in Australia this would be good cold treat
“My cousins dating Oprah” was indeed the best intro for anyone on the team so far
Massive flex, I'm surprised it isn't talked about more
It says absolutely nothing about the person in question, but is still just a huge flex.
So, is she saying her cousin Stedman Graham?
My fav one
I don't care what Mat says. Steph naming the chicken nuggets "Fa-la-afel" was PERFECTION 😆
Best pun in the video
I love that Steph's iconic Nugget voice was brought up. Still my most favorite youtube voice over ever
So sad this series came to an end
I don’t want this to end. I want this to be a tradition for every year.
I feel like the ultimate challenge of Food Theory will be to open a restaurant of all the obscene foods Mat and his team invent. Freeze dried tree toast, Mountain Dew Pizza, and of course laundry cooked steaks. Along with Mat’s signature spicy food heat chaser.
Would love to see that
They definitely could participate in a fair!
That sounds fun.
Having been here from the beginning, this episode makes me unreasonably happy.
We need another part to this
In my city the zoo has a system where they accept used Christmas trees and use them as enrichment for predators or as added vitamins for herbivores (same with excess pumpkin, squashes and apples in autumn), I think it's really interesting and clever
I’m imagine Mat going: “Hey, who wants to eat a tree?” To gather the members on Team Theorist
Don't read my name!
@@Dont_Read_My_Picture Okay I won't
They're probably used to it😆
I love Steph's hair in this video ❤ It just looks so nice ❤❤❤
This man has begun his insane arc and I am here for it all the way.
You might be able to turn the cellulose in to simpler sugars using Cellulase to make sweets more palatable. I don’t know if it breaks the spirit of the test but there’s an idea to consider
7:22
Poor Stephany, she has two toddlers to deal with.
Lol
"Listen to your better half, why don't I listen to you?"
This video really gave the food theory team more personality Sam was absolutely hilarious
I love how Mat explains freeze drying while my family has been doing it for years already and I already know most everything to do with it lol
I feel like I understand why Mat and Safiya are friends. They're both obsessed with eating things that shouldn't be eaten
It's always a win in my book when we get to see Matpat, Steph and Ollie together
Clap and a half for the first pine tree recipes for the channel 🎉 hope the saga continues next year
I really hope they do a Christmas tree episode every Christmas from now on😊
14:07 I’m sorry, WHAT? You don’t not get to elaborate there!
This obsession with his tree and how edible it is, is totally healthy and definitely not concerning
yah... totally
😂😂
Love being part of the experiment, Mat!
I absolutely love pine jam, it tastes so good and sometimes they have caramalized baby pine cones too
14:00 "My cousin is dating Opra"
Everyone watching this video: JAWDROP SOUND EFFECT
That’s indane
Just got to that point. I was like, what?
Stedman Graham is 72yo. How does that work out?
Who's opra? Sounds like a violin player
@@FrootDeMoNhah, that’s what I thought
After the sawdust cookies, I'm sure Steph kept a closer watch over the food she accepted from Matt...
I'll miss this. Live well, Matt and Steph
I love it when Steph said about the lafel. That was funny calling it a fa la la la lafel
They made that ice cream look pretty good. I can imagine seeing that as a baskin robbins holiday exclusive flavor. Kinda like pumpkin spice or peppermint.
can confirm that the pinecone jam/jelly is a common staple in eastern european households; I recognized that jar as soon as I laid eyes upon it. I've never dared to try it, but my mom's a fan. Last place I ever expected to see it featured was here, but I'm strangely honored!
Even though Mat Pat said he is retiring, I can bed this is a series that will never end (Mat Pat will do a full "Trying to eat my Christmas tree" video.)
This was a great episode! Tree puns, fa-la-la-la-lafel, drinking expired milk without flinching… great stuff.
Ah yes, nothing more festive than watching a Food Theory episode dedicated to Matpat eating his christmas tree once again, a few days before christmas.
I honestly could just watch Matt and Steph just being themselves they are absolutely adorable together and I love the fact that they have been together so long that little things like sharing the same spoon or even doing crazy stuff together just seems normal to them ❤❤❤
This was the catalyst for the countdown
Oh my god this is amazing. The tree-logy is finally completed, leafing us feeling treemendously successful.
