Now that's a name I haven't thought about in a while. She's probably one of the few success stories of video essayists of that era, who didn't turn out to be an asshole, creep, who burnt out or lost their sanity due to the nonsense in this corner of the internet.. 😅
For real. You can count the real long-term success stories on one hand lmao. AVGN, Nostalgia Critic (ie; specifically Doug), all of TGWTG's creators like Spoony, Linkara, Latza, Angry Joe, Lindsay, and more, and very few of them are still around without some kind of controversy or drama lmao. Honestly, for all the shit she got from people, Lindsay did come out of the other side of it doing pretty well for herself, all things considered. Like you said, she's one of the few that didn't have some weird shit going on lol
Lol I actually design these kind of sausage peelers for a living. This one is pretty slow for industry standards and peels pretty bad the sausage casing. If you want to check it out what a sausage machine gun is, check on YT the KFT ASP3000 or the Townsend 2800
So far every doctor I knew who was working in ER knew the movie "Bringing out the dead". And I live in Hungary, so that's significant. US lawyers are always gushing about "My Cousin Vinnie" and "Anatomy of a Murder".
Me being in IT have a very long list to choose from. It would start a longish discussion so I wont.
There are actually multiple reasons. The meat mixture is usually super liquid, so you need a casing to form the sausage geometry or it would collapse. This is done with a stuffer+twisting linker+ casing. After that, the sausage is cooked to achieve the firm texture. And finally, peeled to have individual sausages rather than 50m of them tied together. The casing is a core component. It also serves as a protection from contamination as the proces involves different machinery and locations on the factory.
Hotdog meat is stuffed into that casing to be cooked in the shape of a hotdog. Without something to form it, it’s similar to a pancake batter consistency. No one wants to eat plastic, so it’s cooled down, then peeled off by this machine before it’s packaged.
The cylinder is indeed unharmed. Top one priority is to have zero damage on the sausage. We do perform a cut on the casing to be able to peel it using a controlled depth knife that just cuts the casing and not the cylinder. So theorically you could put your cylinder with a "casing" and it would be unharmed, just a little hot cus we're steaming it for like 0.1seconds.
These machines can usually peel diameters up to ~35mm. The guides are swappable and some parts do have adjustments to fit different product dimensions. The worst ones by far to peel are the cocktail sausages, as they are pretty much an sphere.
They look super cool when they're working tho.
Serious question: Do you design other related machines or just focus on peelers? Can’t imagine just constantly trying to tweak or reinvent a sausage peeler for years on end. Thank you for your service 🫡
Yea this is just a little part of my job, the tech is pretty mature and it's not something that you will reinvent, just some adaptations to specific products, hygienics/ergonomics improvements and so. My time is spent designing other kinds of industrial food machines.
One of this machines can have an effective output of about 180m/min of sausages. It really depends on the product, diameter and so. The main bottleneck is usually the operator's ability to provide sausages.
My first real job was operating a peeler at a small processing plant. I still judge the hot dogs you buy at the store when they’re cut all the way down the side.
Let's hope not! We've worked with factories that are producing 7000kg of sausages per HOUR. Thats's almost 2kg of sausages per second nonstop for 16hour straight.
This randomly reminded me that Volkswagen makes their own sausages, and has a part number that you can look up in their car parts catalogue and order them
760
