I mean, it's literally the same as a coloured prawn cracker, no? Just starch and colouring
I don't know what type of toothpick those are but I never seen a toothpick expand and move around like that that's why I think this is bull crap unless they are plastic
This guy is smart trying to get rid of the dumb people
I opened the picture of all the way wide those are not would toothpicks that is a green thin vegetable that looks like a thin slice of green onion that's not a real toothpick because a wood toothpick if you drop it in Greece it's not going to swell up like that and move around that's b***** it's not going to do that don't believe that this is not a real toothpick open it up and if it was it's not going to sizzle like that and if it was a toothpick think about it would don't expand like that and stretch out and start moving around like a live worm it looked like a more like a caterpillar on the picture then it do a toothpick that's not a real toothpick that's some kind of thin vegetable that when he put it in the grease it's old and it's stretched out and swell up wood does not do that
same as McDonald's, they are all made of plastic
People should just buy Chicharrones De Harina they kinda look the same and same texture but are edible
So package peanuts 2.0 lol

And I thought the dude who stir-fried a flip-flop and ate it was crazy
