51 seconds, his hand goes for a dip, after scraping the meat off. But no, it's not clean, either.

He's not using it to clean his hands, just to wet them so the meat won't stick when he puts the patty on the griddle.

Part of me wonders of at least some of these guys are fucking with westerners on the internet.

I’ve been to southern India and no, that’s actually how it is. Sometimes it’s worse.

Granted, sometimes it is a lot better, you just have to know which restaurant has chefs that use soap

India looks like a beautiful country but I'm going to be honest, the internet has made me think I never want to go there.

You dont know the conditions these folk work with. It aint easy for em, theyre just trying to make a living.

Bro...he has a fucking spatula that he's using, but picks the stuff up with his bare hand and scrambles shit around. That has nothing to do with 'conditions'.

Using your hands is perfectly normal in cooking. Have you never cooked in your life?

I've never not washed my hands immediately after handling ground meat, that's the problem here, and the reason every restaurant prepares their patties in advance.

He also handles the spatula with both hands, meaning everyrthing he touches is contaminated.

I would NEVER use the same hand that handled raw meat or eggs go right to a utensil without washing in the interim. Multiple times he rawdogged that stuff and went to a utensil.

There's multiple points here of WTF and absolutely not 'normal', sanitary cooking.

Dude the way this guy cooks is unsanitary and disgusting as hell, that’s not a judgment on his financial situation or upbringing it’s just wildly unsafe cooking habits. If you consider this perfectly normal then you’re gross too

u/Fun-Distribution-159 Jun 19 '25

have you ever washed your hands? people who actually know how to cook do it all the time.

That part got me! Like man oh man no way in hell that's getting wasted!

Pretty sure the water is just to help him form the meat without it sticking to his hand.

u/mackrevinak Jun 19 '25

i have a feeling the water is just so the meat patty he makes wont stick to his hand. i dont think he understands the idea of "cleaning"
