An animated map shows the location of Steinbach, Manitoba.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A blond girl says LET'S TALK ABOUT BREAD.
A boy with curly brown hair says THIS IS A BAGUETTE.
A girl in a purple sweater says I LOVE BREAD, BUT I
DO NOT LIKE THE CRUST.
The blond girl says I LOVE FRENCH TOAST.
The boy with the curly brown hair says I LIKE GARLIC BREAD A LOT.

A girl with short curly brown hair says BREAD IS JUST LIFE.
The blond girl says IT'S MADE OUT OF WATER AND...
A little girl with straight black hair says FLOURS, EGGS.
A blond boy with glasses and a bow tie says MUSTARD, CHEESE.
The blond girl says I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE.
Aynalem says WE'RE IN STEINBACH,
MANITOBA, ABOUT TO LEARN
ABOUT PIONEER FOOD.
Xander says STEINBACH IS A
LARGE MENNONITE COMMUNITY.
MENNONITES ARE A GROUP OF
PEOPLE ORIGINALLY FROM GERMANY,
WHO STARTED SETTLING IN
CANADA 200 YEARS AGO.
Aynalem says I WANT TO KNOW, WHAT DID
THE MENNONITE PEOPLE EAT
WHEN THEY
FIRST CAME HERE?
Xander says GOOD QUESTION.
LET'S HIT THE STREETS
TO FIND OUT MORE.
Aynalem says WHAT'S THAT
BEAUTIFUL SMELL?
They approach a food truck.
Aynalem says THIS IS IGOR.
Igor opens the window of his food truck and says HI KIDS!
Igor is in his forties, clean-shaven and with very short gray hair and wears a gray sweatshirt.
The kids say HI!
COME AROUND THE
CORNER, DOOR IS OPEN.
Aynalem says HIS FOOD TRUCK
SPECIALIZES IN TRADITIONAL
GERMAN FOOD.
JUST THE KIND OF PLACE WE'RE
LOOKING FOR TO INTRODUCE US
TO PIONEER FOOD.
Igor says TODAY, WE'RE GONNA
COOK SCHNITZELS.
THAT'S A GERMAN FAVOURITE THING
FOR KIDS IN GERMANY TO EAT.
Aynalem says WHAT ARE
SCHNITZELS?
Igor says SCHNITZELS ARE
BREADED MEAT.
IT'S VERY POPULAR
IN GERMANY.
SO, I PREPARED ALREADY EGGS,
FLOUR AND BREAD IN HERE,
SO I'M GONNA LET YOU GUYS
POUND DOWN THE MEAT VERY THIN.
YOU NEED A LITTLE BIT
OF MUSCLES FOR THAT.
SO, WE'RE GONNA PUT THE
SCHNITZEL ON THE BOARD.
Aynalem says LOOKS LIKE A HAMMER.
Igor gives Xander a meat pounder and says EXACTLY.
YOU'RE GONNA GET THE FINE
GRIP, OKAY, AND POUND IT HARD.
(POUNDING)
YES, GOOD ONE.
Aynalem says FASTER XANDER, FAST, FAST,
FAST, FAST, FAST, FAST, FAST.
Igor says HOW IT IS, WE TAKE THE
SCHNITZEL, TURN IT AROUND.
Xander says YOUR TURN TO POUND.
Aynalem says I'LL GO
FASTER THIS TIME.
(POUNDING)
Xander says FASTER!
(POUNDING)
Xander says FASTER!
Igor says SHE MAKE IT
FASTER THAN YOU.
NOW PUT THE SCHNITZEL
IN THE FLOUR, VERY GOOD.
NOW YOU CAN PUT IT INTO
THE EGGS, OKAY, PERFECT.
Xander says GOOEY GOOEY
GOODNESS, YEAH, OH.
Igor says AND NOW YOU PUT IT RIGHT
HERE INTO THE BREADING, YES.
NOW YOU TAKE THAT...
Aynalem says PULL IT OUT?
Igor says OKAY, PULL IT OUT.
Aynalem says SHAKE IT AND PLOP.
Igor says PUT IT ON THE
OTHER ONE, PERFECT.
OKAY GUYS, NOW WE ARE
READY TO FRY THE SCHNITZEL,
THAT'S THE MOST FUN.
Aynalem says WE'RE GONNA
EAT THIS?
Igor says YES.
Aynalem says HOW IS THIS
PIONEER FOOD?
Igor says THIS IS PIONEER FOOD BECAUSE
IT CAME FROM OLD EUROPE.
WHEN THE PIONEERS
CAME OVER HERE,
USED TO BRINGING THEIR
OWN RECIPES AND FOOD,
WHAT WAS THE EASIEST,
AND YOU SEE HOW EASY
IT IS TO MAKE
SCHNITZEL.
YOU JUST TAKE FLOUR WHAT YOU
GROW YOURSELF, OLD BREAD,
YOU MAKE THE BREADCRUMBS,
AND THE MEAT,
USUALLY EVERYBODY OF THE
FARMERS HAD THE PIG OR A COW,
AND THEN YOU HAVE
FOR SCHNITZELS.
IT'S READY.
Aynalem says YEAH.
Xander says YEAH.
Igor cuts a loaf of bread in half and puts some sauce on it.
Igor says NOW YOU GET ONE SCHNITZEL
OUT, CUT IT IN HALF.
SURE, OKAY.
YOU CAN PUT LETTUCE IN,
TOMATOES, SQUEEZE IT TOGETHER.
YOU GUYS ARE READY
TO EAT THAT?
They say YEAH.
Igor says OKAY, HAVE A BITE.
Aynalem says MM, I LOVE THE SAUCE.
HOW DO YOU SAY
DELICIOUS IN GERMAN?
Igor says SCHMECKT GUT.
Aynalem says SCHMUK GUT.
Igor says SCHMECKT GUT.
Aynalem says SCHMECKT GUT.
Xander says SCHMECKT GUT.
Igor says VERY GOOD.
Aynalem says IF THIS IS WHAT
PIONEER FOOD TASTES LIKE,
I WANT TO LEARN MORE.
(music plays)
Aynalem says THESE ARE THE MENNONITE
HERITAGE GROUNDS.
I'M MEETING WITH DORA,
THE HEAD CHEF AT
THE LIVERY BARN
RESTAURANT.
SHE'S TAKING ME ON
A FOOD ADVENTURE.
On a door, a sign reads "Slide" with an arrow pointing to the right.
Aynalem says A SLIDE!
THIS WAY?
Dora opens the door and says HELLO, THIS IS
NOT A SLIDE.
Dora is in her sixties, with short white hair and she wears glasses, black trousers, a black T-shirt and a black apron.
Aynalem says OH, HELLO.
Dora says THIS DOOR SLIDES.
Aynalem says OH, I LOVE IT.
Dora says ARE YOU HERE TO HELP
ME BAKE BREAD TODAY?
Aynalem says YES, I AM.
Dora says THAT'S AWESOME.
THANK YOU FOR
HAVING ME.
LET'S GO TO THE WINDMILL
AND WE'LL GET THE FLOUR.
Aynalem says FLOUR, I THOUGHT
YOU BUY THAT AT THE STORE.
Dora says HI, THIS IS AL HAMM.
Al is in his seventies, clean-shaven and wears a denim overall, a checker beige shirt and a farmer’s hat.
Aynalem says OH, NICE TO MEET YOU.
Dora says HE'S THE MILLER HERE, HE'S GONNA
SHOW YOU HOW WE MAKE THE FLOUR.
Aynalem says THIS GIANT MILL TURNS WHEAT
INTO FLOUR THE OLD FASHION WAY.
(music plays)
They enter the mill and Aynalem says WHOA, THIS IS AMAZING.
Al says THIS IS THE
MILLING FLOUR.
THIS IS WHERE THE MILLING
ACTUALLY TAKES PLACE,
THAT HAPPENS
RIGHT THROUGH HERE.
THE HOPPER IS FULL OF
WHEAT, THAT YOU CAN SEE
IN THE LITTLE
GLASS WINDOW.
A caption reads "Wheat."
Al says AND WHAT WE WOULD DO IS THE
WHEAT FLOWS FROM THE HOPPER INTO
THE STONES, AND IT SHAKES INTO
THE STONES LIKE THAT, SEE THAT?
Aynalem says OH YEAH, I CAN
SEE THAT, WHOA.
Al points at a circular stone and says DOWN BELOW THERE IS A
STONE LIKE THIS ONE,
AND ANOTHER ONE THAT'S
LEANING AGAINST THE WALL
FITS RIGHT ON
TOP OF HERE.
AND AS THE TOP ONE IS TURNING,
IT CRUSHES THOSE LITTLE KERNELS
OF WHEAT INTO FLOUR, AND
THEN THE FLOUR GETS PUSHED
DOWN INTO THE BAG.
AND WHAT MAKES THOSE WHEELS
TURN AND THE STONES, OF COURSE,
THE POWER COMES
FROM THE SAILS.
THE WIND PUSHES AGAINST THE
SAILS AND MAKES THOSE SAILS
TURN, AND THAT GIVES US THE
POWER DOWN TO THE STONES.
Aynalem says THIS GIANT WINDMILL IS
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
AND FUN TO LOOK AT.
Al says OKAY, THIS IS WHAT
THE WHEAT LOOKS LIKE.
Aynalem says OH, THAT LOOKS
INTERESTING.
Al says YEAH, THERE WE GO.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, I GREW UP
ON A FARM AND MY DAD TAUGHT ME
THAT IF YOU PUT THAT IN YOUR
MOUTH AND CHEW THAT FOR QUITE A
LONG TIME, AND DON'T SWALLOW IT,
IT WILL ACTUALLY TURN INTO GUM.
Aynalem says REALLY?
Al says YES, IT'LL
TURN INTO GUM.
Aynalem says CAN I TRY THAT,
CAN I TRY?
Al says SURE, GO AHEAD, BUT YOU NEED
TO CHEW IT QUITE SOME TIME
AND DON'T SWALLOW IT.
Aynalem says OKAY, HOW LONG?
Al says OH, I DON'T KNOW,
MAYBE 10, 15 MINUTES.
Aynalem says OH, SO GOOD.
Al says NOW THAT YOU KNOW THIS, WE CAN
GO DOWNSTAIRS AND WE'LL CHECK
OUT HOW THE FLOUR COMES
DOWN INTO THE BAG.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Al says OKAY.
Al says THERE WE GO.
Aynalem says THAT IS REAL COOL.
Al says YEAH, SO WE'RE MAKING
FLOUR RIGHT NOW.
IT'S COMING DOWN THE
CHUTE INTO THE BAG.
YEAH, IT'LL BE 15, 20 MINUTES
IF THE, IF THE WIND IS RIGHT.
Aynalem says OKAY.
I WISH I WAS A
PIONEER RIGHT NOW.
Al says YEAH.
Aynalem says THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN
GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE.
Al says WELL THAT'S THE WAY THE PIONEERS
USED TO DO IT ALL THE TIME.
Aynalem says NOW THE FLOUR IS MILLED, TIME
TO GET BAKING PIONEER STYLE.
An animated cat appears in the mill.
An announcer says DID YOU KNOW WHEAT IS IN A
LOT OF THINGS THAT WE EAT,
LIKE CEREAL AND BREAD,
HUP, TORTILLAS AND BANANAS?
HA, JUST KIDDING
ABOUT THE BANANAS.
An animated dog slips on a banana peel.
The announcer says WHEN YOU EAT WHEAT, IT'S BEST
TO GO FOR WHOLE GRAIN BREADS
AND CEREALS.
TRUST ME, YOUR BODY
WILL THANK YOU.
WHEAT IS ALL AROUND US,
ESPECIALLY IN MANITOBA,
WHICH IS RIGHT HERE IN
THE CENTRE OF CANADA.
IT'S ONE OF THE
PRAIRIE PROVINCES.
AND THE WHEAT IN CANADA IS SO
GOOD THAT WE SHIP IT ALL OVER
THE WORLD FOR PEOPLE TO EAT.
YUM, YUM!
(music plays)
Xander says I'M MEETING
MJ'S KAFE'S OWNER, BRYAN,
TO GO ON A FOOD ADVENTURE.
(MOO)
I'M AT A BARN
OF SOME SORT.
THIS IS WHERE BRYAN FROM
MJ'S KAFE TOLD ME TO BE.
IT SMELLS KIND OF BAD, AND IT'S
ALL KIND OF MUSHY EVERYWHERE,
BUT IT'S REALLY COOL
TO SEE ALL THE ANIMALS.
He waves at a cow and says HELLO.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Xander says HEY BRYAN.
Bryan says HEY XANDER.
Bryan is in his forties, clean-shaven and has short wavy graying hair. He wears glasses a black graphic T-shirt.
Xander says NICE TO MEET YOU.
Bryan says NICE TO MEET YOU.
YOU WANT TO
MILK A COW?
Xander says SURE.
Bryan says LET'S GO MEET THE
FARMER, HIS NAME IS TED.
HEY TED.
Ted says HEY BRYAN.
Ted is in his mid-thirties, with short reddish brown hair and a beard. He wears black trousers, a blue T-shirt and an olive green cap.
Xander says WHOA, WHAT
ARE THESE?
Bryan says THOSE ARE ROBOTS.
Xander says ROBOTS?
Bryan says ON OUR FARM, THE COWS ARE
MILKED BY ROBOTS NOWADAYS,
NOT BY PEOPLE ANYMORE.
Xander says IT'S A BIG ROBOT.
A COW MILKING ROBOT!
WHAT'S GOING ON?
Ted says WHAT YOU'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS
THE COW'S TEATS ARE BEING WASHED
BY THE ROBOT, AND IN A MINUTE
OR TWO, IT WILL MILK HER.
AND THE REASON SHE COMES TO
THE ROBOT IS BECAUSE SHE GETS
A CANDY IN THE ROBOT.
Xander says THE COW GETS
CANDY FROM A ROBOT?
Ted says ISN'T THAT AWESOME?
Xander says FOR ME IT WOULD BE.
(LAUGHING)
Xander says SO ROBOTS MILK
THE COWS,
AND THE COWS ACTUALLY
LIKE IT MORE.
Ted says BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE HOW
THEY USED TO MILK COWS BACK IN
THE DAY, I CAN TAKE YOU OUT TO
THE STALLS AND SHOW YOU HOW.
Xander says SURE.
Ted says YOU MIGHT GET A
LITTLE DIRTY.
Xander shrugs.
Ted says LET'S DO IT!
Bryan says SEE WHAT MOM
SAYS ABOUT THAT.
Xander says YEAH.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Ted says WE'LL PUT THIS COW IN
A STALL THERE, XANDER.
THIS ONE RIGHT HERE.
Bryan says NICE.
‘
Ted says WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, XANDER, IS
YOU WANT TO TAKE YOUR HAND
AND JUST SQUEEZE
DOWN INTO THE PAIL.
Xander says OKAY.
Ted says AND ALL THE MILK
WILL COME OUT.
Xander says ALL RIGHT.
Ted says I'LL STEP ASIDE
AND LET YOU IN.
Bryan says YOU GOT THIS XANDER.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Xander says YEAH, GREAT, OH.
IS THIS HURTING YOU?
I'M SORRY, I'M NOT
A PROFESSIONAL.
(WHACK)
Xander says AHH!
Ted says THERE YOU GO, JUST LIKE
A PRO THERE, XANDER.
Xander says I'M DOING IT, I'M
MILKING A COW!
THIS IS A LOT OF WORK.
I THINK I'LL STICK TO BUYING MY
MILK IN THE STORE, NO OFFENCE.
(MOO)
Xander says HOW LONG DO I
HAVE TO DO THIS?
Bryan says WELL, WE NEED ENOUGH
TO MAKE SCHMAUNT FAT.
Xander says WHAT?
Xander says I DON'T NOW WHAT
THE SCHMAUNT FAT STUFF IS,
BUT I HOPE IT DOESN'T
NEED ANY MORE MILK.
Bryan says HOW MUCH YOU GOT?
THAT'S NOT GONNA MAKE
VERY MUCH SCHMAUNT FAT.
I THINK WE'RE
IN TROUBLE.
MAYBE WE SHOULD LET THE
ROBOTS DO THE WORK, EH, XANDER?
Xander says YEAH.
(music plays)
The animated dog appears on screen.
The announcer says LET'S TALK ABOUT MILK!
The dog says MOO, DOINK, RUFF.
The announcer says FROM COWS, OF COURSE.
KINDS OF MILK TODAY, LIKE SOY.
A voice says YUM.
The announcer says COCONUT.
A voice says YUMMY.
The announcer says AND EVEN ALMOND MILK!
A voice says YUM YUM.
The announcer says THE PIONEERS HAD
COW'S MILK AND MOO,
IT WAS GOOD FOR THEM, TOO!
MILK IS HIGH IN
PROTEIN AND CALCIUM,
TWO THINGS EVERY KID
NEEDS NUTRITIONALLY.
AND BY THE WAY, PROTEINS
ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS
FOR THE HUMAN BODY.
THEY HELP BUILD
AND REPAIR MUSCLE.
PIONEERS USED MILK
IN THEIR COOKING,
IT INTO OTHER DAIRY PRODUCTS,
LIKE BUTTER AND CHEESE!
(MOO)
(BLEATING)
Aynalem says THE FLOUR HAS BEEN
MILLED AT THE WINDMILL.
I'M BACK AT THE
RESTAURANT WITH DORA,
WHO'S GOING TO TEACH
ME HOW TO MAKE BREAD,
JUST LIKE THE PIONEERS DID.
Aynalem says WHAT'S THAT
FANTASTIC SMELL?
Dora says I AM THINKING IT'S OUR
POT OF KOMST BORSCHT.
Aynalem says OH YES, IT IS.
Dora grabs a giant stick and says YEAH, HERE'S MY
STIR STICK.
(LAUGHS)
Aynalem says OH, MY GOSH, THERE IS SO
MANY FLAVOURS IN THE SOUP,
IT SMELLS SO GOOD!
Dora says THERE'S A BALL FULL
OF SPICES IN THERE.
IT GIVES IT ALL THAT YUMMY
FLAVOUR THAT YOU SMELL
WHEN YOU COME IN HERE.
Aynalem says IS THIS TRADITIONAL SOUP THAT
PIONEERS WOULD HAVE EATEN?
Dora says VERY MUCH SO, 'CAUSE IT'S SO
FULL OF HEALTHY VEGETABLES,
AND EVERYBODY HAD
THEM IN THEIR GARDEN.
An animated carrot pops up from the soup and says I'M FROM A GARDEN.
Dora says AND ON TOP OF
WHICH, IT IS DELISH.
Aynalem says THIS SOUP
LOOKS AMAZING,
BUT I'M HERE TO
BAKE SOME BREAD.
Dora says HERE IS THE INGREDIENTS
FOR OUR BREAD.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says YOU CAN PUT, THIS IS WARM
WATER, IT HAS TO BE WARM,
IT CAN'T BE TOO COLD OR TOO
HOT, YOU CAN PUT IT IN THE POT.
Aynalem puts all the ingredients in a big mixer.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says YEAH, JUST DUMP IT IN THERE,
AND THEN WE'RE GONNA ADD
BROWN SUGAR, HONEY, A LITTLE
BIT OF SALT AND LARD.
Aynalem says WHAT'S LARD?
Dora says LARD IS KIND OF LIKE BUTTER,
BUT IT COMES FROM ANIMALS.
Aynalem says DONE THAT.
Dora says AND THEN, SWEETHEART,
YOU'RE GONNA ADD YEAST.
Aynalem says YEAST.
Dora says IT'S GONNA HELP YOUR BREAD RISE
AND GET REALLY NICE AND FLUFFY.
THIS IS WHOLE
WHEAT FLOUR.
YOU CAN PUT
THAT IN THERE.
Aynalem says JUST DUMP IT
ALL IN THERE?
Dora says AND THAT, SWEETHEART, IS
THE FLOUR THAT YOU MILLED
AT THE WINDMILL.
Aynalem says OH! (DING)
Dora says YEAH, EXACTLY THAT.
Aynalem says IT'S SO COOL THAT YOU
GET TO MILL YOUR OWN FLOUR
AND THEN BAKE IT
AND THEN EAT IT.
Dora says GIVE YOU A LITTLE HAND, YOU
CAN PUT IT ON THE COUNTER.
AND YOU WORK IT WITH YOUR HANDS
AND MAKE IT NICE AND SMOOTH.
Aynalem says OKAY.
I CAN'T EVEN GET IT OFF
MY HAND, VERY STICKY.
Dora says JUST ROLL IT
OVER AND OVER.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says WE'RE GONNA MAKE 3 LOAVES
OF BREAD OUT OF THAT.
SO, CUT IT MAYBE HERE
AND HERE AND THEN WE'LL,
AND YOU CUT IT ALL
THE WAY DOWN, PERFECT.
YOU DID AN
AWESOME JOB.
Aynalem says OH, AND THEN THIS?
Dora says YEAH, THAT'LL
BE JUST FINE.
Aynalem says OH YEAH.
Dora says ALL RIGHT.
Aynalem says THREE LOAVES OF BREAD.
She puts the loaves in the oven.
Aynalem says MILLING YOUR OWN FLOUR
AND THEN BAKING IT,
I THINK THE PIONEERS
WERE ONTO SOMETHING.
(music plays)
Xander says MJ'S KAFE IS A LOCAL
HOTSPOT THAT SERVES UP
TRADITIONAL GERMAN MENNONITE
FOOD, AND I AM GONNA EAT IT.
(music plays)
Bryan says HOW ARE YOU DOING?
Xander says GOOD.
Bryan says WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A GOOD DAY TODAY.
Xander says WHAT ARE WE MAKIN'?
Bryan says WE ARE MAKING
VARENECHI.
An animated monkey pops up on screen.
Xander says BANANA CHIP?
Bryan says BANANA CHIP, NO. (LAUGHS)
THIS IS VARENECHI, WHICH
IS MENNONITE PEROGIES.
Xander says SO, LOOKS LIKE WE'RE
HAVING PEROGIES.
Bryan says AND FARMER SAUSAGE AND THE
ALL IMPORTANT SCHMAUNT FAT.

SCHMAUNT...
Xander says SCHMAUNT...
Bryan says FAT.
Xander says FAT.
Bryan says YOU BET.
IT'S A PRETTY
HEAVY GRAVY.
IT'S MADE WITH BUTTER
AND HEAVY CREAM.
Xander says THE SAME CREAM WE
GOT FROM THE DAIRY FARM.
Bryan says SO, THIS IS
VARENECHI DOUGH.
WE MAKE IT AHEAD OF TIME SO IT
HAS TIME TO REST A LITTLE BIT.
Xander says RIGHT.
THAT'S A LOT OF DOUGH.
Xander helps Bryan get the dough out of the bag.
Bryan says ALL RIGHT.
Xander says AHH, IT'S SO SQUISHY.
Bryan says IT IS, ISN'T IT?
(PLOP)
Bryan says THERE WE GO.
Xander says HA-HA.
Bryan says OKAY, SO NOW WHAT YOU'RE
GONNA TRY AND DO IS,
IS WE'RE GONNA
GET IT THIN.
Xander says SO, HOW MANY PEROGIES WOULD
WE GET IN ONE BATCH OF DOUGH?
Bryan says SO, THIS BATCH OF DOUGH
THAT WE JUST MADE,
WE'D PROBABLY GET
ABOUT 175 PEROGIES.
Xander says THAT'S A LOT
OF PEROGIES.
Bryan says YEAH, AND WE MAKE THEM
AT OUR RESTAURANT.
WE MAKE EACH ONE BY
HAND INDIVIDUALLY.
Xander says SO, IS THAT,
LIKE, HARDER WORK?
Bryan says OH BY YO.
Xander says WHAT'S OH
BY YO MEAN?
Bryan says OH BY YO?
Xander says OH BY YO.
Bryan says THAT'S AN
AWESOME WORD.
WHAT IT MEANS DIRECTLY
IS OH, BUT YES,
BUT IT'S ONE OF THOSE LOW GERMAN
WORDS WHERE YOU CAN USE IT
JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE.
IF SOMEBODY SAYS SOMETHING AND
YOU KIND OF LIKE WHAT THEY SAID
OR YOU AGREE WITH IT,
YOU JUST GO OH BY YO.
Xander says OH BY OH.
Bryan says NOW YOU'RE GONNA TAKE A
SCOOP OF COTTAGE CHEESE.
WE PUT DOTS JUST ALONG
YOUR DOUGH IN A ROW.
Xander says LIKE THAT?
Bryan says YEAH, AND WE'LL GO ALL
THE WAY ALONG TO THE END.
Xander says OKAY.
Bryan says JUST LIKE THAT.
Xander says I KNOW I PROBABLY CAN'T EAT IT
RIGHT NOW, BUT IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
Bryan says KIND OF LIKE SCOOPING
ICE CREAM, RIGHT?
Xander says HMM, OH BAY YO.
Bryan says OH BA YO, HA-HA-HA.
HEY, YOU'RE CATCHING ON.
YOU CAN SEE THIS IS
SUPER SOFT DOUGH, RIGHT?
Xander says MM-HMM.
Bryan folds the dough over the cheese and says SO YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO TAKE IT,
AND THEN WE'RE
GONNA GO LIKE THAT.
SO KIND OF GRAB
IT VERY GENTLY.
THIS TAKES A
NICE SOFT TOUCH.
Xander says IT'S STICKING A BIT.
Bryan says OH, IS IT?
Xander says YEAH, AROUND HERE.
EVERYTHING'S WORKING
OUT JUST FINE, RIGHT?
Bryan says NICE!
Xander says YES.
Bryan says NICE JOB.
SO, NOW WE

Xander says THAT'S MY CHILD.
Bryan laughs and says THAT'S YOUR
CHILD.
AND YOUR CHILD
IS BEAUTIFUL.
Xander says THANK YOU.
Bryan says CUT THOSE TWO.
Xander says PRESS, LITTLE SPIN, TAKE
OFF AND THERE'S YOUR PEROGY.
Bryan says THAT'S YOUR
BEST ONE YET.
Xander says YEA, BEST FOR LAST.
Bryan says BEST FOR LAST, EXACTLY.
Xander says YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE
GOOD WITH THESE PEROGIES?
A LITTLE BIT OF
FARMER SAUSAGE.
Bryan says FARMER SAUSAGE IS A
MENNONITE TRADITION.
IT'S, IT'S A PORK SAUSAGE AND
IT'S SMOKED TO PERFECTION.
An animated pig appears.
Bryan says I LOVE FARMER SAUSAGE.
I COULD EAT IT
MANY TIMES A WEEK.
I'M GONNA GET A LITTLE
BIT OF HEAT GOING.
NOW THESE WE'VE CUT OPEN
JUST SO THEY FRY FASTER.
JUST KIND OF OPEN IT UP AND
THEN PUT IT INTO THE FRYING PAN.
Xander says LIKE THIS?
Bryan says YES SIR.
Xander puts the sausages on a frying pan.
Ryan says SO WHILE THAT'S FRYING, THE
NEXT THING WE'RE GONNA DO IS
MAKE THE SCHMAUNT FAT.
Xander says SHHHMALLFAT.
Bryan says WE'RE GOING TO PUT BUTTER,
PRIMARILY BUTTER AND CREAM.
Xander says WHY CREAM
INSTEAD OF MILK?
Bryan says WHAT CREAM DOES IS IT THICKENS
UP REALLY NICE, AND THE FLAVOUR,
I MEAN YOU CAN'T BEAT
CREAM, ALL RIGHT.
I LIKE TO ADD A LITTLE BIT OF
FLAVOUR WITH SOME BACON FAT.
YOU LIKE BACON, RIGHT?
Xander says I LOVE BACON.
Bryan says ALL RIGHT, GIVE IT A GOOD SCOOP
OF BACON, I'D SAY ONE SPOON.
THAT'S GOOD, WE'LL
JUST LET THAT MELT.
LET'S CUT OFF SOME BUTTER,
THROW THAT IN THERE.
SO, WE'RE GONNA LET THAT
FRY A LITTLE BIT TO GET,
JUST SO IT STARTS
TURNING BROWN.
SO, LET'S ADD
SOME HEAVY CREAM.
NOW, WE'RE GONNA LET
THAT COME UP TO A BOIL.
Xander says BUTTERY CREAMY GOODNESS.
Bryan says NO, YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT.
SO YOU CAN ALMOST SEE IT'S
STARTING TO THICKEN UP
ALREADY, CAN'T YOU?
Xander says THICKEN, YEAH,
I CAN FEEL IT.
HOW DOES THIS GO
INTO THE PEROGIES?
WHERE DOES IT GO?
Bryan says SO, THIS ACTUALLY GOES
ON TOP AS A GRAVY.
Xander says SO, THIS IS A
CREAMY GRAVY?
Bryan says VERY MUCH SO, YOU
BET, CREAM AND BUTTER.
CREAM AND
BUTTER, OF COURSE.
YOU CAN SEE OUR PRIMARY
INGREDIENTS WERE
CREAM AND BUTTER.

Xander says OH.

IT'S TIME TO EAT.
WOO, IT LOOKS GREAT.
Bryan says THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD.
(music plays)
They dig in.
Bryan says HOW'S IT TASTING?
YOU'RE IN HEAVEN,
AREN'T YA?
Xander says MM-HMM.
In animation, a halo pops up over Xander’s head.
Bryan says YOU DID A
PRETTY FINE JOB.
THIS IS REALLY GOOD.
Xander says THANK YOU.
YOU DID A GREAT
TEACHING JOB.
Bryan says SO YOU GOT TO TRY
THE FARMER SAUSAGE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Xander says MM-HMM, WOW.
Bryan says SMOKED TO PERFECTION.
Xander says MM-HMM.
Bryan says THEY ADD A LITTLE BIT OF
SALT, A LITTLE BIT OF SPICES,
BUT IT'S A PURE
PORK SAUSAGE.
Xander says MMM.
YOU KNOW, I CAN'T HELP
BUT TO NOTICE THAT THIS IS
A PRETTY HEAVY MEAL.
Bryan says IT IS, BUT YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER
THEY WORKED REALLY, REALLY,
REALLY HARD BACK THEN.
A LOT OF THESE FLAVOURS AND
TASTES WERE KIND OF DEVELOPED
BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY
COULD GET ON THE FARM.
THEY HAD A DAIRY COW, SO
A LOT OF DAIRY WAS USED,
An animated cow pops up and moos.
Bryan says AND THEY HAD A PIG FROM THAT
FARMER SAUSAGE WOULD BE MADE.
THEY NEEDED A WHOLESOME FOOD,
THEY NEEDED A HEAVY FOOD BECAUSE
THEY WORKED REALLY, REALLY
HARD FROM SUNUP TO SUNDOWN.
IT'S A MENNONITE
TRADITION MADE FOR DECADES
AND DECADES AND DECADES.
AND YOU MADE THEM.
Xander says OH BA YO.
(LAUGHING)
(MOOING)
(BLEATING)
(music plays)
Aynalem and Xander meet in a barn. They open a window.
Xander says HEY AYNALEM, WHAT
DID YOU DO TODAY?
Aynalem says I GOT TO SEE A WINDMILL,
AND I ALSO MADE BREAD.
WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY?
Xander says I GOT TO MILK A COW.
Aynalem says WHOA, THAT IS AMAZING.
I WISH I COULD
DO THAT, TOO.
Xander says I THINK PIONEERS HAD
A REALLY TOUGH LIFE.
Aynalem says BUT THEY DID GET TO
EAT THE BEST FOOD.
Xander says DID YOU KNOW THAT THESE
BARNS HAVE ELEVATORS?
(DING)
He ducks down, pretending to go down on an elevator.
Aynalem says OH, XANDER.
As the gag reel rolls, end credits roll.
Xander says THERE'S A LOT
OF COWS HERE,
AND WHERE THERE'S
A LOT OF COW-
A cow touches Xander’s arm.
Xander says OH, MY GOSH!
(LAUGHS)
Al says THIS IS, WE'RE
MAKING FLOUR RIGHT NOW.
IT'S COME DOWN THE
CHUTE INTO THE BAG.
Aynalem says WHOA.
She chokes and coughs.
She says CAN I SPIT MY?
A crew member says YES.
Al says YEAH, GO AHEAD.
Bryan says WHAT DO YOU SAY
WE DRINK THAT?
(LAUGHING)
Xander gives Bryan the bucket with the milk and says GO AHEAD.
Suspenseful music plays.
A cow stands right behind Xander.

COME JOIN ME IN THE KITCHEN!
Kids say INSIDE ACCESS!
(UPBEAT MUSIC)

Aynalem says I LOVE IT!
Clips show images of the kids making all kinds of foods.

Xander cuts a pizza and says OH, I WANT
TO EAT IT RIGHT NOW!
THAT LOOKS SO GOOD!
In animation, a cat and a dog chop the words "Kid Diners" out of food on a cutting board.
Kids shout WE WONDER!
Aynalem says IN THIS EPISODE
OF KID DINERS,
XANDER AND I ARE IN
STEINBACH, MANITOBA,
IN SEARCH OF PIONEER FOOD.
Aynalem grabs some seeds and says I TRY SOME NEW GUM.
A farmer says YOU NEED TO CHEW IT QUITE SOME
TIME AND DON'T SWALLOW IT.
Aynalem says AND XANDER MILKS A COW.
Xander says AHH!
Aynalem says YOU'RE WATCHING KID DINERS.
(music plays)
An animated map shows the location of Steinbach, Manitoba.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A blond girl says LET'S TALK ABOUT BREAD.
A boy with curly brown hair says THIS IS A BAGUETTE.
A girl in a purple sweater says I LOVE BREAD, BUT I
DO NOT LIKE THE CRUST.
The blond girl says I LOVE FRENCH TOAST.
The boy with the curly brown hair says I LIKE GARLIC BREAD A LOT.
A girl with curly light brown hair says I LIKE NORMAL RYE BREAD.
A girl with short curly brown hair says BREAD IS JUST LIFE.
The blond girl says IT'S MADE OUT OF WATER AND...
A little girl with straight black hair says FLOURS, EGGS.
A blond boy with glasses and a bow tie says MUSTARD, CHEESE.
The blond girl says I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE.
Aynalem says WE'RE IN STEINBACH,
MANITOBA, ABOUT TO LEARN
ABOUT PIONEER FOOD.
Xander says STEINBACH IS A
LARGE MENNONITE COMMUNITY.
MENNONITES ARE A GROUP OF
PEOPLE ORIGINALLY FROM GERMANY,
WHO STARTED SETTLING IN
CANADA 200 YEARS AGO.
Aynalem says I WANT TO KNOW, WHAT DID
THE MENNONITE PEOPLE EAT
WHEN THEY
FIRST CAME HERE?
Xander says GOOD QUESTION.
LET'S HIT THE STREETS
TO FIND OUT MORE.
Aynalem says WHAT'S THAT
BEAUTIFUL SMELL?
They approach a food truck.
Aynalem says THIS IS IGOR.
Igor opens the window of his food truck and says HI KIDS!
Igor is in his forties, clean-shaven and with very short gray hair and wears a gray sweatshirt.
The kids say HI!
COME AROUND THE
CORNER, DOOR IS OPEN.
Aynalem says HIS FOOD TRUCK
SPECIALIZES IN TRADITIONAL
GERMAN FOOD.
JUST THE KIND OF PLACE WE'RE
LOOKING FOR TO INTRODUCE US
TO PIONEER FOOD.
Igor says TODAY, WE'RE GONNA
COOK SCHNITZELS.
THAT'S A GERMAN FAVOURITE THING
FOR KIDS IN GERMANY TO EAT.
Aynalem says WHAT ARE
SCHNITZELS?
Igor says SCHNITZELS ARE
BREADED MEAT.
IT'S VERY POPULAR
IN GERMANY.
SO, I PREPARED ALREADY EGGS,
FLOUR AND BREAD IN HERE,
SO I'M GONNA LET YOU GUYS
POUND DOWN THE MEAT VERY THIN.
YOU NEED A LITTLE BIT
OF MUSCLES FOR THAT.
SO, WE'RE GONNA PUT THE
SCHNITZEL ON THE BOARD.
Aynalem says LOOKS LIKE A HAMMER.
Igor gives Xander a meat pounder and says EXACTLY.
YOU'RE GONNA GET THE FINE
GRIP, OKAY, AND POUND IT HARD.
(POUNDING)
YES, GOOD ONE.
Aynalem says FASTER XANDER, FAST, FAST,
FAST, FAST, FAST, FAST, FAST.
Igor says HOW IT IS, WE TAKE THE
SCHNITZEL, TURN IT AROUND.
Xander says YOUR TURN TO POUND.
Aynalem says I'LL GO
FASTER THIS TIME.
(POUNDING)
Xander says FASTER!
(POUNDING)
Xander says FASTER!
Igor says SHE MAKE IT
FASTER THAN YOU.
NOW PUT THE SCHNITZEL
IN THE FLOUR, VERY GOOD.
NOW YOU CAN PUT IT INTO
THE EGGS, OKAY, PERFECT.
Xander says GOOEY GOOEY
GOODNESS, YEAH, OH.
Igor says AND NOW YOU PUT IT RIGHT
HERE INTO THE BREADING, YES.
NOW YOU TAKE THAT...
Aynalem says PULL IT OUT?
Igor says OKAY, PULL IT OUT.
Aynalem says SHAKE IT AND PLOP.
Igor says PUT IT ON THE
OTHER ONE, PERFECT.
OKAY GUYS, NOW WE ARE
READY TO FRY THE SCHNITZEL,
THAT'S THE MOST FUN.
Aynalem says WE'RE GONNA
EAT THIS?
Igor says YES.
Aynalem says HOW IS THIS
PIONEER FOOD?
Igor says THIS IS PIONEER FOOD BECAUSE
IT CAME FROM OLD EUROPE.
WHEN THE PIONEERS
CAME OVER HERE,
USED TO BRINGING THEIR
OWN RECIPES AND FOOD,
WHAT WAS THE EASIEST,
AND YOU SEE HOW EASY
IT IS TO MAKE
SCHNITZEL.
YOU JUST TAKE FLOUR WHAT YOU
GROW YOURSELF, OLD BREAD,
YOU MAKE THE BREADCRUMBS,
AND THE MEAT,
USUALLY EVERYBODY OF THE
FARMERS HAD THE PIG OR A COW,
AND THEN YOU HAVE
FOR SCHNITZELS.
IT'S READY.
Aynalem says YEAH.
Xander says YEAH.
Igor cuts a loaf of bread in half and puts some sauce on it.
Igor says NOW YOU GET ONE SCHNITZEL
OUT, CUT IT IN HALF.
SURE, OKAY.
YOU CAN PUT LETTUCE IN,
TOMATOES, SQUEEZE IT TOGETHER.
YOU GUYS ARE READY
TO EAT THAT?
They say YEAH.
Igor says OKAY, HAVE A BITE.
Aynalem says MM, I LOVE THE SAUCE.
HOW DO YOU SAY
DELICIOUS IN GERMAN?
Igor says SCHMECKT GUT.
Aynalem says SCHMUK GUT.
Igor says SCHMECKT GUT.
Aynalem says SCHMECKT GUT.
Xander says SCHMECKT GUT.
Igor says VERY GOOD.
Aynalem says IF THIS IS WHAT
PIONEER FOOD TASTES LIKE,
I WANT TO LEARN MORE.
(music plays)
Aynalem says THESE ARE THE MENNONITE
HERITAGE GROUNDS.
I'M MEETING WITH DORA,
THE HEAD CHEF AT
THE LIVERY BARN
RESTAURANT.
SHE'S TAKING ME ON
A FOOD ADVENTURE.
On a door, a sign reads "Slide" with an arrow pointing to the right.
Aynalem says A SLIDE!
THIS WAY?
Dora opens the door and says HELLO, THIS IS
NOT A SLIDE.
Dora is in her sixties, with short white hair and she wears glasses, black trousers, a black T-shirt and a black apron.
Aynalem says OH, HELLO.
Dora says THIS DOOR SLIDES.
Aynalem says OH, I LOVE IT.
Dora says ARE YOU HERE TO HELP
ME BAKE BREAD TODAY?
Aynalem says YES, I AM.
Dora says THAT'S AWESOME.
THANK YOU FOR
HAVING ME.
LET'S GO TO THE WINDMILL
AND WE'LL GET THE FLOUR.
Aynalem says FLOUR, I THOUGHT
YOU BUY THAT AT THE STORE.
Dora says HI, THIS IS AL HAMM.
Al is in his seventies, clean-shaven and wears a denim overall, a checker beige shirt and a farmer’s hat.
Aynalem says OH, NICE TO MEET YOU.
Dora says HE'S THE MILLER HERE, HE'S GONNA
SHOW YOU HOW WE MAKE THE FLOUR.
Aynalem says THIS GIANT MILL TURNS WHEAT
INTO FLOUR THE OLD FASHION WAY.
(music plays)
They enter the mill and Aynalem says WHOA, THIS IS AMAZING.
Al says THIS IS THE
MILLING FLOUR.
THIS IS WHERE THE MILLING
ACTUALLY TAKES PLACE,
THAT HAPPENS
RIGHT THROUGH HERE.
THE HOPPER IS FULL OF
WHEAT, THAT YOU CAN SEE
IN THE LITTLE
GLASS WINDOW.
A caption reads "Wheat."
Al says AND WHAT WE WOULD DO IS THE
WHEAT FLOWS FROM THE HOPPER INTO
THE STONES, AND IT SHAKES INTO
THE STONES LIKE THAT, SEE THAT?
Aynalem says OH YEAH, I CAN
SEE THAT, WHOA.
Al points at a circular stone and says DOWN BELOW THERE IS A
STONE LIKE THIS ONE,
AND ANOTHER ONE THAT'S
LEANING AGAINST THE WALL
FITS RIGHT ON
TOP OF HERE.
AND AS THE TOP ONE IS TURNING,
IT CRUSHES THOSE LITTLE KERNELS
OF WHEAT INTO FLOUR, AND
THEN THE FLOUR GETS PUSHED
DOWN INTO THE BAG.
AND WHAT MAKES THOSE WHEELS
TURN AND THE STONES, OF COURSE,
THE POWER COMES
FROM THE SAILS.
THE WIND PUSHES AGAINST THE
SAILS AND MAKES THOSE SAILS
TURN, AND THAT GIVES US THE
POWER DOWN TO THE STONES.
Aynalem says THIS GIANT WINDMILL IS
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
AND FUN TO LOOK AT.
Al says OKAY, THIS IS WHAT
THE WHEAT LOOKS LIKE.
Aynalem says OH, THAT LOOKS
INTERESTING.
Al says YEAH, THERE WE GO.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE, I GREW UP
ON A FARM AND MY DAD TAUGHT ME
THAT IF YOU PUT THAT IN YOUR
MOUTH AND CHEW THAT FOR QUITE A
LONG TIME, AND DON'T SWALLOW IT,
IT WILL ACTUALLY TURN INTO GUM.
Aynalem says REALLY?
Al says YES, IT'LL
TURN INTO GUM.
Aynalem says CAN I TRY THAT,
CAN I TRY?
Al says SURE, GO AHEAD, BUT YOU NEED
TO CHEW IT QUITE SOME TIME
AND DON'T SWALLOW IT.
Aynalem says OKAY, HOW LONG?
Al says OH, I DON'T KNOW,
MAYBE 10, 15 MINUTES.
Aynalem says OH, SO GOOD.
Al says NOW THAT YOU KNOW THIS, WE CAN
GO DOWNSTAIRS AND WE'LL CHECK
OUT HOW THE FLOUR COMES
DOWN INTO THE BAG.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Al says OKAY.
Al says THERE WE GO.
Aynalem says THAT IS REAL COOL.
Al says YEAH, SO WE'RE MAKING
FLOUR RIGHT NOW.
IT'S COMING DOWN THE
CHUTE INTO THE BAG.
YEAH, IT'LL BE 15, 20 MINUTES
IF THE, IF THE WIND IS RIGHT.
Aynalem says OKAY.
I WISH I WAS A
PIONEER RIGHT NOW.
Al says YEAH.
Aynalem says THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN
GOING TO THE GROCERY STORE.
Al says WELL THAT'S THE WAY THE PIONEERS
USED TO DO IT ALL THE TIME.
Aynalem says NOW THE FLOUR IS MILLED, TIME
TO GET BAKING PIONEER STYLE.
An animated cat appears in the mill.
An announcer says DID YOU KNOW WHEAT IS IN A
LOT OF THINGS THAT WE EAT,
LIKE CEREAL AND BREAD,
HUP, TORTILLAS AND BANANAS?
HA, JUST KIDDING
ABOUT THE BANANAS.
An animated dog slips on a banana peel.
The announcer says WHEN YOU EAT WHEAT, IT'S BEST
TO GO FOR WHOLE GRAIN BREADS
AND CEREALS.
TRUST ME, YOUR BODY
WILL THANK YOU.
WHEAT IS ALL AROUND US,
ESPECIALLY IN MANITOBA,
WHICH IS RIGHT HERE IN
THE CENTRE OF CANADA.
IT'S ONE OF THE
PRAIRIE PROVINCES.
AND THE WHEAT IN CANADA IS SO
GOOD THAT WE SHIP IT ALL OVER
THE WORLD FOR PEOPLE TO EAT.
YUM, YUM!
(music plays)
Xander says I'M MEETING
MJ'S KAFE'S OWNER, BRYAN,
TO GO ON A FOOD ADVENTURE.
(MOO)
I'M AT A BARN
OF SOME SORT.
THIS IS WHERE BRYAN FROM
MJ'S KAFE TOLD ME TO BE.
IT SMELLS KIND OF BAD, AND IT'S
ALL KIND OF MUSHY EVERYWHERE,
BUT IT'S REALLY COOL
TO SEE ALL THE ANIMALS.
He waves at a cow and says HELLO.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Xander says HEY BRYAN.
Bryan says HEY XANDER.
Bryan is in his forties, clean-shaven and has short wavy graying hair. He wears glasses a black graphic T-shirt.
Xander says NICE TO MEET YOU.
Bryan says NICE TO MEET YOU.
YOU WANT TO
MILK A COW?
Xander says SURE.
Bryan says LET'S GO MEET THE
FARMER, HIS NAME IS TED.
HEY TED.
Ted says HEY BRYAN.
Ted is in his mid-thirties, with short reddish brown hair and a beard. He wears black trousers, a blue T-shirt and an olive green cap.
Xander says WHOA, WHAT
ARE THESE?
Bryan says THOSE ARE ROBOTS.
Xander says ROBOTS?
Bryan says ON OUR FARM, THE COWS ARE
MILKED BY ROBOTS NOWADAYS,
NOT BY PEOPLE ANYMORE.
Xander says IT'S A BIG ROBOT.
A COW MILKING ROBOT!
WHAT'S GOING ON?
Ted says WHAT YOU'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS
THE COW'S TEATS ARE BEING WASHED
BY THE ROBOT, AND IN A MINUTE
OR TWO, IT WILL MILK HER.
AND THE REASON SHE COMES TO
THE ROBOT IS BECAUSE SHE GETS
A CANDY IN THE ROBOT.
Xander says THE COW GETS
CANDY FROM A ROBOT?
Ted says ISN'T THAT AWESOME?
Xander says FOR ME IT WOULD BE.
(LAUGHING)
Xander says SO ROBOTS MILK
THE COWS,
AND THE COWS ACTUALLY
LIKE IT MORE.
Ted says BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE HOW
THEY USED TO MILK COWS BACK IN
THE DAY, I CAN TAKE YOU OUT TO
THE STALLS AND SHOW YOU HOW.
Xander says SURE.
Ted says YOU MIGHT GET A
LITTLE DIRTY.
Xander shrugs.
Ted says LET'S DO IT!
Bryan says SEE WHAT MOM
SAYS ABOUT THAT.
Xander says YEAH.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Ted says WE'LL PUT THIS COW IN
A STALL THERE, XANDER.
THIS ONE RIGHT HERE.
Bryan says NICE.
‘
Ted says WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, XANDER, IS
YOU WANT TO TAKE YOUR HAND
AND JUST SQUEEZE
DOWN INTO THE PAIL.
Xander says OKAY.
Ted says AND ALL THE MILK
WILL COME OUT.
Xander says ALL RIGHT.
Ted says I'LL STEP ASIDE
AND LET YOU IN.
Bryan says YOU GOT THIS XANDER.
(MOO)
(music plays)
Xander says YEAH, GREAT, OH.
IS THIS HURTING YOU?
I'M SORRY, I'M NOT
A PROFESSIONAL.
(WHACK)
Xander says AHH!
Ted says THERE YOU GO, JUST LIKE
A PRO THERE, XANDER.
Xander says I'M DOING IT, I'M
MILKING A COW!
THIS IS A LOT OF WORK.
I THINK I'LL STICK TO BUYING MY
MILK IN THE STORE, NO OFFENCE.
(MOO)
Xander says HOW LONG DO I
HAVE TO DO THIS?
Bryan says WELL, WE NEED ENOUGH
TO MAKE SCHMAUNT FAT.
Xander says WHAT?
Xander says I DON'T NOW WHAT
THE SCHMAUNT FAT STUFF IS,
BUT I HOPE IT DOESN'T
NEED ANY MORE MILK.
Bryan says HOW MUCH YOU GOT?
THAT'S NOT GONNA MAKE
VERY MUCH SCHMAUNT FAT.
I THINK WE'RE
IN TROUBLE.
MAYBE WE SHOULD LET THE
ROBOTS DO THE WORK, EH, XANDER?
Xander says YEAH.
(music plays)
The animated dog appears on screen.
The announcer says LET'S TALK ABOUT MILK!
The dog says MOO, DOINK, RUFF.
The announcer says FROM COWS, OF COURSE.
KINDS OF MILK TODAY, LIKE SOY.
A voice says YUM.
The announcer says COCONUT.
A voice says YUMMY.
The announcer says AND EVEN ALMOND MILK!
A voice says YUM YUM.
The announcer says THE PIONEERS HAD
COW'S MILK AND MOO,
IT WAS GOOD FOR THEM, TOO!
MILK IS HIGH IN
PROTEIN AND CALCIUM,
TWO THINGS EVERY KID
NEEDS NUTRITIONALLY.
AND BY THE WAY, PROTEINS
ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS
FOR THE HUMAN BODY.
THEY HELP BUILD
AND REPAIR MUSCLE.
PIONEERS USED MILK
IN THEIR COOKING,
IT INTO OTHER DAIRY PRODUCTS,
LIKE BUTTER AND CHEESE!
(MOO)
(BLEATING)
Aynalem says THE FLOUR HAS BEEN
MILLED AT THE WINDMILL.
I'M BACK AT THE
RESTAURANT WITH DORA,
WHO'S GOING TO TEACH
ME HOW TO MAKE BREAD,
JUST LIKE THE PIONEERS DID.
Aynalem says WHAT'S THAT
FANTASTIC SMELL?
Dora says I AM THINKING IT'S OUR
POT OF KOMST BORSCHT.
Aynalem says OH YES, IT IS.
Dora grabs a giant stick and says YEAH, HERE'S MY
STIR STICK.
(LAUGHS)
Aynalem says OH, MY GOSH, THERE IS SO
MANY FLAVOURS IN THE SOUP,
IT SMELLS SO GOOD!
Dora says THERE'S A BALL FULL
OF SPICES IN THERE.
IT GIVES IT ALL THAT YUMMY
FLAVOUR THAT YOU SMELL
WHEN YOU COME IN HERE.
Aynalem says IS THIS TRADITIONAL SOUP THAT
PIONEERS WOULD HAVE EATEN?
Dora says VERY MUCH SO, 'CAUSE IT'S SO
FULL OF HEALTHY VEGETABLES,
AND EVERYBODY HAD
THEM IN THEIR GARDEN.
An animated carrot pops up from the soup and says I'M FROM A GARDEN.
Dora says AND ON TOP OF
WHICH, IT IS DELISH.
Aynalem says THIS SOUP
LOOKS AMAZING,
BUT I'M HERE TO
BAKE SOME BREAD.
Dora says HERE IS THE INGREDIENTS
FOR OUR BREAD.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says YOU CAN PUT, THIS IS WARM
WATER, IT HAS TO BE WARM,
IT CAN'T BE TOO COLD OR TOO
HOT, YOU CAN PUT IT IN THE POT.
Aynalem puts all the ingredients in a big mixer.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says YEAH, JUST DUMP IT IN THERE,
AND THEN WE'RE GONNA ADD
BROWN SUGAR, HONEY, A LITTLE
BIT OF SALT AND LARD.
Aynalem says WHAT'S LARD?
Dora says LARD IS KIND OF LIKE BUTTER,
BUT IT COMES FROM ANIMALS.
Aynalem says DONE THAT.
Dora says AND THEN, SWEETHEART,
YOU'RE GONNA ADD YEAST.
Aynalem says YEAST.
Dora says IT'S GONNA HELP YOUR BREAD RISE
AND GET REALLY NICE AND FLUFFY.
THIS IS WHOLE
WHEAT FLOUR.
YOU CAN PUT
THAT IN THERE.
Aynalem says JUST DUMP IT
ALL IN THERE?
Dora says AND THAT, SWEETHEART, IS
THE FLOUR THAT YOU MILLED
AT THE WINDMILL.
Aynalem says OH! (DING)
Dora says YEAH, EXACTLY THAT.
Aynalem says IT'S SO COOL THAT YOU
GET TO MILL YOUR OWN FLOUR
AND THEN BAKE IT
AND THEN EAT IT.
Dora says GIVE YOU A LITTLE HAND, YOU
CAN PUT IT ON THE COUNTER.
AND YOU WORK IT WITH YOUR HANDS
AND MAKE IT NICE AND SMOOTH.
Aynalem says OKAY.
I CAN'T EVEN GET IT OFF
MY HAND, VERY STICKY.
Dora says JUST ROLL IT
OVER AND OVER.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Dora says WE'RE GONNA MAKE 3 LOAVES
OF BREAD OUT OF THAT.
SO, CUT IT MAYBE HERE
AND HERE AND THEN WE'LL,
AND YOU CUT IT ALL
THE WAY DOWN, PERFECT.
YOU DID AN
AWESOME JOB.
Aynalem says OH, AND THEN THIS?
Dora says YEAH, THAT'LL
BE JUST FINE.
Aynalem says OH YEAH.
Dora says ALL RIGHT.
Aynalem says THREE LOAVES OF BREAD.
She puts the loaves in the oven.
Aynalem says MILLING YOUR OWN FLOUR
AND THEN BAKING IT,
I THINK THE PIONEERS
WERE ONTO SOMETHING.
(music plays)
Xander says MJ'S KAFE IS A LOCAL
HOTSPOT THAT SERVES UP
TRADITIONAL GERMAN MENNONITE
FOOD, AND I AM GONNA EAT IT.
(music plays)
Bryan says HOW ARE YOU DOING?
Xander says GOOD.
Bryan says WE'RE GONNA HAVE
A GOOD DAY TODAY.
Xander says WHAT ARE WE MAKIN'?
Bryan says WE ARE MAKING
VARENECHI.
An animated monkey pops up on screen.
Xander says BANANA CHIP?
Bryan says BANANA CHIP, NO. (LAUGHS)
THIS IS VARENECHI, WHICH
IS MENNONITE PEROGIES.
Xander says SO, LOOKS LIKE WE'RE
HAVING PEROGIES.
Bryan says AND FARMER SAUSAGE AND THE
ALL IMPORTANT SCHMAUNT FAT.
Xander says SHHHMALLFAT.
Bryan says SO THAT'S CLOSE,
Bryan says THAT'S CLOSE.
SCHMAUNT...
Xander says SCHMAUNT...
Bryan says FAT.
Xander says FAT.
Bryan says YOU BET.
IT'S A PRETTY
HEAVY GRAVY.
IT'S MADE WITH BUTTER
AND HEAVY CREAM.
Xander says THE SAME CREAM WE
GOT FROM THE DAIRY FARM.
Bryan says SO, THIS IS
VARENECHI DOUGH.
WE MAKE IT AHEAD OF TIME SO IT
HAS TIME TO REST A LITTLE BIT.
Xander says RIGHT.
THAT'S A LOT OF DOUGH.
Xander helps Bryan get the dough out of the bag.
Bryan says ALL RIGHT.
Xander says AHH, IT'S SO SQUISHY.
Bryan says IT IS, ISN'T IT?
(PLOP)
Bryan says THERE WE GO.
Xander says HA-HA.
Bryan says OKAY, SO NOW WHAT YOU'RE
GONNA TRY AND DO IS,
IS WE'RE GONNA
GET IT THIN.
Xander says SO, HOW MANY PEROGIES WOULD
WE GET IN ONE BATCH OF DOUGH?
Bryan says SO, THIS BATCH OF DOUGH
THAT WE JUST MADE,
WE'D PROBABLY GET
ABOUT 175 PEROGIES.
Xander says THAT'S A LOT
OF PEROGIES.
Bryan says YEAH, AND WE MAKE THEM
AT OUR RESTAURANT.
WE MAKE EACH ONE BY
HAND INDIVIDUALLY.
Xander says SO, IS THAT,
LIKE, HARDER WORK?
Bryan says OH BY YO.
Xander says WHAT'S OH
BY YO MEAN?
Bryan says OH BY YO?
Xander says OH BY YO.
Bryan says THAT'S AN
AWESOME WORD.
WHAT IT MEANS DIRECTLY
IS OH, BUT YES,
BUT IT'S ONE OF THOSE LOW GERMAN
WORDS WHERE YOU CAN USE IT
JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE.
IF SOMEBODY SAYS SOMETHING AND
YOU KIND OF LIKE WHAT THEY SAID
OR YOU AGREE WITH IT,
YOU JUST GO OH BY YO.
Xander says OH BY OH.
Bryan says NOW YOU'RE GONNA TAKE A
SCOOP OF COTTAGE CHEESE.
WE PUT DOTS JUST ALONG
YOUR DOUGH IN A ROW.
Xander says LIKE THAT?
Bryan says YEAH, AND WE'LL GO ALL
THE WAY ALONG TO THE END.
Xander says OKAY.
Bryan says JUST LIKE THAT.
Xander says I KNOW I PROBABLY CAN'T EAT IT
RIGHT NOW, BUT IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
Bryan says KIND OF LIKE SCOOPING
ICE CREAM, RIGHT?
Xander says HMM, OH BAY YO.
Bryan says OH BA YO, HA-HA-HA.
HEY, YOU'RE CATCHING ON.
YOU CAN SEE THIS IS
SUPER SOFT DOUGH, RIGHT?
Xander says MM-HMM.
Bryan folds the dough over the cheese and says SO YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO TAKE IT,
AND THEN WE'RE
GONNA GO LIKE THAT.
SO KIND OF GRAB
IT VERY GENTLY.
THIS TAKES A
NICE SOFT TOUCH.
Xander says IT'S STICKING A BIT.
Bryan says OH, IS IT?
Xander says YEAH, AROUND HERE.
EVERYTHING'S WORKING
OUT JUST FINE, RIGHT?
Bryan says NICE!
Xander says YES.
Bryan says NICE JOB.
SO, NOW WE
GOT THE CUTTER.
Xander says RIGHT.
Bryan says THIS CUTS AND IT'S GONNA
PINCH WITH THE INNER.
SO, IT'S MADE
JUST FOR PEROGIES.
SO YOU'RE GONNA TAKE IT, DO THE
CUT, GIVE IT A LITTLE TURN,
VOILA, LOOK AT THIS, THIS
IS THE PERFECT PEROGY.
Xander says PERFECT.
OKAY, I'LL
TRY THIS ONE.
THIS ONE, PRESS.
Bryan says AND A LITTLE SPIN, JUST A
LITTLE SPIN AND LOOK AT THIS.
PICK IT UP,
MY FRIEND.
Xander says I MADE PEROGIES.
Bryan says AWESOME.
Xander says THAT'S MY CHILD.
Bryan laughs and says THAT'S YOUR
CHILD.
AND YOUR CHILD
IS BEAUTIFUL.
Xander says THANK YOU.
Bryan says CUT THOSE TWO.
Xander says PRESS, LITTLE SPIN, TAKE
OFF AND THERE'S YOUR PEROGY.
Bryan says THAT'S YOUR
BEST ONE YET.
Xander says YEA, BEST FOR LAST.
Bryan says BEST FOR LAST, EXACTLY.
Xander says YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE
GOOD WITH THESE PEROGIES?
A LITTLE BIT OF
FARMER SAUSAGE.
Bryan says FARMER SAUSAGE IS A
MENNONITE TRADITION.
IT'S, IT'S A PORK SAUSAGE AND
IT'S SMOKED TO PERFECTION.
An animated pig appears.
Bryan says I LOVE FARMER SAUSAGE.
I COULD EAT IT
MANY TIMES A WEEK.
I'M GONNA GET A LITTLE
BIT OF HEAT GOING.
NOW THESE WE'VE CUT OPEN
JUST SO THEY FRY FASTER.
JUST KIND OF OPEN IT UP AND
THEN PUT IT INTO THE FRYING PAN.
Xander says LIKE THIS?
Bryan says YES SIR.
Xander puts the sausages on a frying pan.
Ryan says SO WHILE THAT'S FRYING, THE
NEXT THING WE'RE GONNA DO IS
MAKE THE SCHMAUNT FAT.
Xander says SHHHMALLFAT.
Bryan says WE'RE GOING TO PUT BUTTER,
PRIMARILY BUTTER AND CREAM.
Xander says WHY CREAM
INSTEAD OF MILK?
Bryan says WHAT CREAM DOES IS IT THICKENS
UP REALLY NICE, AND THE FLAVOUR,
I MEAN YOU CAN'T BEAT
CREAM, ALL RIGHT.
I LIKE TO ADD A LITTLE BIT OF
FLAVOUR WITH SOME BACON FAT.
YOU LIKE BACON, RIGHT?
Xander says I LOVE BACON.
Bryan says ALL RIGHT, GIVE IT A GOOD SCOOP
OF BACON, I'D SAY ONE SPOON.
THAT'S GOOD, WE'LL
JUST LET THAT MELT.
LET'S CUT OFF SOME BUTTER,
THROW THAT IN THERE.
SO, WE'RE GONNA LET THAT
FRY A LITTLE BIT TO GET,
JUST SO IT STARTS
TURNING BROWN.
SO, LET'S ADD
SOME HEAVY CREAM.
NOW, WE'RE GONNA LET
THAT COME UP TO A BOIL.
Xander says BUTTERY CREAMY GOODNESS.
Bryan says NO, YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT.
SO YOU CAN ALMOST SEE IT'S
STARTING TO THICKEN UP
ALREADY, CAN'T YOU?
Xander says THICKEN, YEAH,
I CAN FEEL IT.
HOW DOES THIS GO
INTO THE PEROGIES?
WHERE DOES IT GO?
Bryan says SO, THIS ACTUALLY GOES
ON TOP AS A GRAVY.
Xander says SO, THIS IS A
CREAMY GRAVY?
Bryan says VERY MUCH SO, YOU

BUTTER, OF COURSE.
YOU CAN SEE OUR PRIMARY
INGREDIENTS WERE

TALKING TO KIDS ABOUT FOOD.
A girl with curly brown hair says I LOVE MILK.
A girl in a purple sweater says I LOVE CHOCOLATE MILK.
A girl with a bob cut with bangs says A I LOVE IT WHEN MY
MOM MAKES PEROGIES.
Another blond girl says THE BEST PART ABOUT MY
MOM'S BAKING IS THE CUPCAKES
WITH A LOT OF ICING.
A blond boy with glasses and a bow tie says UM, CHEESE.
The girl with curly brown hair says CHEESE IS MADE FROM MILK.
A boy with brown hair says THERE'S NOTHING
BETTER THAN ICE CREAM.
A girl with red hair says A YOGHURT.
The girl with curly brown hair says YOGHURT'S MADE FROM MILK.
MILK IS MADE FROM MILK. (LAUGHS)
Aynalem says STEINBACH, MANITOBA,
IS A LARGE MENNONITE COMMUNITY,
KNOWN FOR MAKING SOME
TASTY PIONEER FOOD,
AND I'M ABOUT TO TRY SOME.
She slices one of the loaves.
Dora says SO, SWEETHEART, WE'RE
GONNA HAVE A BOWL OF SOUP.
THIS IS THE SAME SOUP
THAT YOU STIRRED UP IN THAT
HUGE POT OVER THERE.
Aynalem says MMM.
Dora says YOU LIKE IT?
Aynalem says YES, I LOVE IT.
Dora says AND TAKE YOUR BREAD
AND YOU'LL WANT TO DUNK
YOUR BREAD IN THE SOUP.
YOU CAN DO THAT, TOO.
Aynalem says THE BREAD WAS SO GOOD.
IT WAS SQUISHY AND IT
TASTED REALLY GREAT.
DIPPING THE BREAD INTO THE SOUP,
OH, IT MAKES IT EVEN BETTER.
THIS ALL TASTES SO MUCH
BETTER 'CAUSE WE MADE IT.
Dora says I KNOW, ISN'T THAT COOL?
Aynalem says THANK YOU FOR SHOWING
ME ABOUT PIONEER FOOD.
I'M GONNA COOK
THIS AT HOME.
Dora says I'M THINKING YOUR
FAMILY WOULD LOVE IT.
Aynalem says THIS MENNONITE
FOOD IS DELICIOUS.
TIME FOR XANDER TO DIG IN.
Bryan says READY TO PLATE
THIS BABY UP?

Bryan says SO, WE GOT YOUR
VARENECHI THAT YOU MADE.

SO, WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO IS
SCOOP A BIT OF THAT ON TOP.
Xander says OOH IT LOOKS GOOD.
Bryan says IT'S QUITE RICH, YEAH.
A LITTLE BIT MORE.
Xander says TA-DA!
Bryan says THERE YOU GO.
NOW, WE'RE GONNA FINISH IT OFF,
GIVE US EACH A PIECE OF
FARMER SAUSAGE, FAMOUS
MENNONITE FARMER SAUSAGE.
Xander says SAUSAGE.
Bryan says YES, ALL RIGHT.
Xander says OU, IT SMELLS GREAT.

Bryan says WE'RE GONNA
HAVE A FEAST.
Xander says OH.
AND THAT'S IT,
WE'RE DONE.
IT'S TIME TO EAT.
WOO, IT LOOKS GREAT.
Bryan says THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD.
(music plays)
They dig in.
Bryan says HOW'S IT TASTING?
YOU'RE IN HEAVEN,
AREN'T YA?
Xander says MM-HMM.
In animation, a halo pops up over Xander’s head.
Bryan says YOU DID A
PRETTY FINE JOB.
THIS IS REALLY GOOD.
Xander says THANK YOU.
YOU DID A GREAT
TEACHING JOB.
Bryan says SO YOU GOT TO TRY
THE FARMER SAUSAGE.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Xander says MM-HMM, WOW.
Bryan says SMOKED TO PERFECTION.
Xander says MM-HMM.
Bryan says THEY ADD A LITTLE BIT OF
SALT, A LITTLE BIT OF SPICES,
BUT IT'S A PURE
PORK SAUSAGE.
Xander says MMM.
YOU KNOW, I CAN'T HELP
BUT TO NOTICE THAT THIS IS
A PRETTY HEAVY MEAL.
Bryan says IT IS, BUT YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER
THEY WORKED REALLY, REALLY,
REALLY HARD BACK THEN.
A LOT OF THESE FLAVOURS AND
TASTES WERE KIND OF DEVELOPED
BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY
COULD GET ON THE FARM.
THEY HAD A DAIRY COW, SO
A LOT OF DAIRY WAS USED,
An animated cow pops up and moos.
Bryan says AND THEY HAD A PIG FROM THAT
FARMER SAUSAGE WOULD BE MADE.
THEY NEEDED A WHOLESOME FOOD,
THEY NEEDED A HEAVY FOOD BECAUSE
THEY WORKED REALLY, REALLY
HARD FROM SUNUP TO SUNDOWN.
IT'S A MENNONITE
TRADITION MADE FOR DECADES
AND DECADES AND DECADES.
AND YOU MADE THEM.
Xander says OH BA YO.
(LAUGHING)
(MOOING)
(BLEATING)
(music plays)
Aynalem and Xander meet in a barn. They open a window.
Xander says HEY AYNALEM, WHAT
DID YOU DO TODAY?
Aynalem says I GOT TO SEE A WINDMILL,
AND I ALSO MADE BREAD.
WHAT DID YOU DO TODAY?
Xander says I GOT TO MILK A COW.
Aynalem says WHOA, THAT IS AMAZING.
I WISH I COULD
DO THAT, TOO.
Xander says I THINK PIONEERS HAD
A REALLY TOUGH LIFE.
Aynalem says BUT THEY DID GET TO
EAT THE BEST FOOD.
Xander says DID YOU KNOW THAT THESE
BARNS HAVE ELEVATORS?
(DING)
He ducks down, pretending to go down on an elevator.
Aynalem says OH, XANDER.
As the gag reel rolls, end credits roll.
Xander says THERE'S A LOT
OF COWS HERE,
AND WHERE THERE'S
A LOT OF COW-
A cow touches Xander’s arm.
Xander says OH, MY GOSH!
(LAUGHS)
Al says THIS IS, WE'RE
MAKING FLOUR RIGHT NOW.
IT'S COME DOWN THE
CHUTE INTO THE BAG.
Aynalem says WHOA.
She chokes and coughs.
She says CAN I SPIT MY?
A crew member says YES.
Al says YEAH, GO AHEAD.
Bryan says WHAT DO YOU SAY
WE DRINK THAT?
(LAUGHING)
Xander gives Bryan the bucket with the milk and says GO AHEAD.
Suspenseful music plays.
A cow stands right behind Xander.
