(music plays)
On a chopping board, string beans spell "Kid Diners."
Xander says YOU'RE
WATCHING KID DINERS!
Xander is around 11, with short blond hair and wears a colourful checked shirt.
The announcer says HEY KIDS,
COME JOIN ME IN THE KITCHEN!
Kids say INSIDE ACCESS!
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
A caption reads "Aynalem."
Aynalem is around 12, with long curly brown hair with bangs in a ponytail. She wears a white tip and a white cardigan.
Aynalem says I LOVE IT!
Clips show images of the kids making all kinds of foods.
The caption changes to "Xander."
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!
Xander says I'M XANDER, AND RIGHT
NOW ON KID DINERS,
AYNALEM AND I ARE
IN NIAGARA FALLS.
AYNALEM MAKES
FRIENDS WITH A SALAD.
Aynalem covers some growing with a sheet and says GOOD NIGHT.
Xander says AND I WEAR A FUNNY OUTFIT.
HOW DO I LOOK?
Xander appears in a beekeeping suit.
A beekeeper says YOU LOOK AWESOME.
YOU LOOK LIKE A BEEKEEPER.
Xander says TO KEEP BEES AWAY, OF COURSE.
YOU'RE WATCHING KID DINERS!
On an animated Canada shaped chopping board, a hand puts a pin on Niagara Falls.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A girl with wavy brown hair says ON A HOT DAY THERE'S NOTHING
BETTER THAN BUBBLEGUM ICE CREAM.
A girl with straight light brown hair says VANILLA WITH CHOCOLATE
SAUCE AND SPRINKLES.
A girl with straight light brown hair in a bob cut says AND FISH, I LOVE FISH.
A blond boy with glasses says I LOVE CHEESEBURGERS WITH
FRENCH FRIES AND KETCHUP.
Xander says WE'RE IN
NIAGARA FALLS, ONTARIO,
ON THE HUNT FOR SOMETHING TASTY.
Aynalem says I HEAR IT'S SO HOT HERE,
FOOD GROWS ALMOST ALL YEAR.
Xander says HEY, CHECK OUT
THIS FOOD TRUCK.
Aynalem says HEY, LOOK, BUBBLE and
SQUEAK WITH KID DINERS.
Xander says WHICH ONE ARE YOU,
BUBBLE OR SQUEAK?
Aynalem says I THINK I'M SQUEAK.
(SQUEAK)
Xander says I THINK I'M BUBBLE.
Aynalem says BUBBLE.
The owner of the food truck says HELLO GOV'NAS.
Xander says HELLO.
She’s in her twenties, with red hair in a bun and wears glasses, a beret, a floral top and a blue apron.
The girl says BUBBLE AND SQUEAKS
ACTUALLY ARE NOT NAMES.
IT'S A BRITISH FOOD.
Xander says REALLY?
The girl says IT'S USUALLY WHEN WE FRY UP THE
LEFTOVERS FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE
WITH A FRIED
EGG ON TOP.
Aynalem says CAN WE MAKE IT?
The girl says ABSOLUTELY.
Aynalem says WE GET TO MAKE BRITISH FOOD.
The girl says SO JUST IN HERE WE HAVE WHAT
WOULD BE LEFTOVER AFTER A
TRADITIONAL ROAST DINNER,
BRAISED CABBAGE, SOME ROASTED
POTATOES AND SOME
BRAISED CARROTS AS WELL.
She says to Xander I'M GONNA NEED YOU TO TAKE
EACH OF THOSE POTATOES
AND QUARTER THEM FOR ME.
She gives Aynalem a grater and says ALL RIGHT, AND WE DO
HAVE SOME GRATING TO DO.
HERE WE HAVE SOME VERY
STINKY SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE.
Aynalem says OKAY, WHY IS
IT SO STINKY?
The girl says IT'S FANTASTIC,
THAT'S WHY.
Aynalem says WOO-HOO.
The girl says YOU GUYS LIKE
CHEESE, YEAH?
Aynalem says YEAH.
I LOVE IT.
I'M A CHEESE
LOVER.
The girl says NOW, WE'RE GOING TO
CHOP UP SOME CABBAGE.
SO, DO YOU GUYS
LIKE CABBAGE?
Aynalem says YEAH.
Xander says OH YEAH.
The girl says YEAH, REALLY?
WHEN I WAS A KID
I HATED CABBAGE.
Xander says REALLY?
The girl says YEAH. ONE MORE THING
TO CHOP, SOME HAM,
AS SMALL AS YOU
POSSIBLY CAN.
SO, MAYBE CHOP IT ONE WAY
AND THEN MAKE A PILE
AND THEN CHOP IT
THE OTHER WAY.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DID YOU
GET INTO COOKING?
The girl says WHEN I WAS VERY LITTLE, MY NAN
USED TO DO ALL THE COOKING IN
THE FAMILY, AND I USED TO LOVE
TO SIT IN HER KITCHEN AND WATCH
HER MAKE PIES AND DIFFERENT
ROASTS AND THINGS.
Xander says IT DEFINITELY HELPS TO
HAVE AN ADULT HELPING YOU
WITH A KNIFE
IN THE KITCHEN.
The girl says SO, WE GOT TO THROW IN
THOSE CARROTS THERE.
She shows them a potato masher and says INSTEAD OF USING THIS GUY,
IF YOU GUYS ARE UP FOR IT,
HANDS ARE PROBABLY
THE BEST MASHERS.
Xander says YES.
Aynalem says OH, DON'T WORRY,
WE'RE UP FOR IT.
Xander says OU, THIS
FEELS SO NICE.
Aynalem says THIS FEELS SO COOL.
Xander says OH, MIXING THIS UP WITH
YOUR HANDS IS REALLY GREAT.
The girl says OKAY, WE'RE GONNA MAKE
THIS EVEN MORE MESSY.
Aynalem says REALLY?
The girl says YEAH, 'CAUSE WE HAVE
TO ADD AN EGG IN THERE.
Aynalem says OKAY.
An animated egg pops up and says EGGCELLENT!
The girl cracks an egg in the bowl.
The kids go OHHH!
Aynalem says YEAH, IT IS
REALLY MESSY.
Xander says IT'S SO EGGY.
Aynalem says OH, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT,
WAIT, OH, MY GOSH.
Xander says WHAT THE HECK IS
SHE LOOKING FOR NOW?
Aynalem says DON'T DO ANYTHING, MY
RING JUST FELL IN THERE.
I BETTER FIND THAT RING FAST,
I DON'T WANT XANDER TO EAT IT.
AND IT'S RIGHT HERE.
(LAUGHING)
Aynalem says NOW IT'S BUBBLES
AND SQUEAKS AND RINGS.
The girl says LET'S FRY
THIS ONE UP.
YOU'RE GONNA TAKE
A SMALL HANDFUL,
NOW PLOP IT RIGHT
IN THE OIL.
PAT THEM DOWN A LITTLE BIT SO
THEY GET A LITTLE BIT FLATTER.
Aynalem says I HEAR IT BUBBLING
AND SQUEAKING.
Xander says YEAH, ME, TOO.
The girl says THIS IS WHY IT'S CALLED
BUBBLE AND SQUEAK.
WE'RE GONNA ACTUALLY
FLIP THEM OVER.
IT'S NOT GONNA MATTER
IF THEY ALL BREAK UP
'CAUSE IT'S ALMOST
LIKE A HASH, RIGHT.
LET IT BAKE FOR A
LITTLE BIT LONGER.
LET'S FIRE UP
SOME TOMATOES.
Aynalem says OKAY.
The girl says SO, WE'RE GONNA
NEED SOME BUTTER.
Aynalem puts the tomatoes on the pan and say THERE'S MY
SMILEY FACE.
The girl opens the grill.
Aynalem says OUUU.
Xander says OUUU.
The girl says NOW, WE'RE GOING
TO FRY SOME EGGS.
THE TRICK TO EGGS ON THE
BARBECUE IS ACTUALLY
A LITTLE BIT OF WATER.
THERE YOU GO, AND I'M GONNA
CLOSE THE LID, THERE WE GO.
SO, WE'RE PRETTY
MUCH GOOD TO PLATE.
Xander almost drops the cardboard container and says OH!
The girl says WHOOP, YOU GOT IT?
Xander says YEAH.
HOLD IT, RIGHT.
OU, THAT
LOOKS SO GOOD.
The girl says PUT A COUPLE OF THOSE
TOMATOES ON THIS SIDE HERE.
Aynalem says IN BRITAIN DO
YOU SAY TOMATOES?
The girl says WE DO SAY TOMATOES.
Aynalem says TOMATO, TOMATO.
The girl says WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA PUT
SOME SOUR CREAM ON IT,
A LITTLE BIT OF CHIVES,
AND THEN WE'LL POP
THOSE EGGS ON
TOP AS WELL.
THE LAST THING THAT WE
HAVE TO PUT ON THERE IS
SOME TOMATO CHUTNEY.
IT'S LIKE A JAM MADE
OUT OF TOMATOES, YEAH.
THERE'S ALL KINDS
OF DIFFERENT THINGS.
THERE'S MUSTARD SEED IN
THERE, THERE'S GINGER.
WHY DON'T WE GO TRY IT AND
SEE WHAT YOU GUYS THINK?
Aynalem says YES.
The girl says AWESOME.
Xander says THIS IS A GREAT WAY
TO USE LEFTOVERS.
The girl says SOMEBODY STAB THAT YOLK THERE
AND LET IT RUN EVERYWHERE.
DIG IN.
YOU WANT TO GET THAT
YOLK ALL OVER EVERYTHING.
Aynalem says OH, SORRY.
Xander says BUBBLE AND SQUEAK, I
ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE IT.
THAT IS REALLY GOOD.
The girl says THANK YOU.
AND YOU
GUYS MADE IT.
Aynalem says I REALLY
LIKE THIS JAM.
THIS CHUTNEY IS SO GOOD.
Xander says MAN, I'M LOVING THIS SO MUCH,
BUT I THINK IT MIGHT BE TIME
FOR US TO GO MEET
OUR OTHER CHEFS.
Aynalem says YEAH, THANK YOU, BYE.
THANK YOU, BYE.
The girl says THANKS GUYS,
SEE YOU LATER.
Aynalem comes back, takes the container with her and says BYE.
The girl says SEE YA.
Xander says THAT WAS TASTY.
NOW IT'S TIME TO
MEET OUR OTHER CHEFS.
THIS IS CHEF TIM OF
MOOSE AND PEPPER.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE
WHAT'S IN THE MENU HERE.
Tim is in his late forties, clean-shaven and with short wavy white hair. He wears a black T-shirt.
Xander says BUT FIRST, HE'S SENDING
ME ON A FOOD ADVENTURE
TO GET SOME HONEY.
He walks by a cage with a parrot inside.
The parrot says BROCK, KID DINERS.
Xander says WHOA, WHAT'S A PARROT
DOING ON A HONEY FARM?
The parrot says BROCK, WHAT'S A XANDER DOING
ON A HONEY FARM, BROCK?
BYE CHEEKO.
Cheeko says BYE XANDER.
Xander says THIS IS STELLA.
SHE'S GONNA SHOW ME HOW TO
GET HONEY OUT OF THE BEEHIVES.
HEY STELLA.
Stella is in her twenties, with long straight black hair and she wears a white beekeeping suit.
Stella says HEY XANDER.
Xander says WHAT ARE THESE SUITS?
Stella says OH, THESE ARE
BEEKEEPING SUITS.
Xander says REALLY?
Stella says YEAH.
Xander says LOOKS LIKE I GOT TO
PUT ON THIS SPACESUIT
TO PROTECT ME
FROM THE BEES.
Stella says YOU GOT IT.
IT'S HARDER
THAN IT LOOKS.
YEAH, PERFECT.
Xander says I LOOK BEEUTIFUL BECAUSE
I'M IN A BEEKEEPER SUIT.
Stella says PERFECT.
NOW YOU GOT TO
PUT ON THE HELMET.
Xander says ALL RIGHT.
Stella says PERFECT.
Xander says HOW DO I LOOK?
Stella says YOU LOOK AWESOME, YOU
LOOK LIKE A BEEKEEPER.
Xander says THIS SPACESUIT PROTECTS ME
IN CASE THE BEES GET ANGRY
AND WANT TO STING ME.
An animated bee pops up.
Xander says BUT I'M NOT PLANNING ON
MAKING THEM MAD.
BUZZZZ.
Ed says HI, YOU WANT TO DO
SOME BEEKEEPING?
Ed is in his sixties, with short white hair and a moustache. He wears gray trousers, a printed white shirt and a baseball hat.
Xander says THIS IS ED.
HE'S STELLA'S DAD.
I GUESS HE DOESN'T
HAVE TO WEAR A SUIT.
Ed says YOU CAN OPEN THIS ONE
THERE, LIFT IT UP SLOWLY.
Xander opens a beehive and says I'M NOT NERVOUS.
Ed grabs the lid and says AND WE'RE GONNA SET
IT RIGHT ASIDE HERE.
SMOKE THEM A
LITTLE BIT.
Xander says WHAT DOES
THIS SMOKE DO?
Ed says IT CALMS THE BEES DOWN AND
CHASES THEM AWAY THERE A BIT,
SO WE CAN
WORK WITH THEM.
Xander says I WANT YOU TO
RELAX, BEES, RELAX.
Ed says THIS IS THE
HIVE TOOL.
YOU BLOW IT RIGHT IN HERE AND
LIFT UP ONE FRAME LIKE THIS.
SEE, NOW YOU CAN TAKE
THE WHOLE FRAME OUT.
Xander says LOOK AT ALL THESE BEES!
Ed says THEN YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE BRUSH
AND BRUSH THEM OFF A LITTLE BIT.
Xander says EXCUSE ME, I JUST NEED
YOU OFF HERE FOR A SECOND.
SO, WHERE'S THE HONEY?
Ed says RIGHT IN HERE.
SEE THIS HERE, IT'S ALL
FULL OF HONEY THERE.
Xander says COME ON, GET
OFF, COME ON.
SO, HOW DOES
THIS WORK?
WHAT ARE THE
BEES DOING IN HERE?
Ed says WE RAISE THE BEES TO ABOUT
50,000 BEES IN ONE BOX HERE.
Xander says THERE'S 50,000 BEES
IN THIS ONE BOX?
Ed says YES, THERE IS, THAT'S WHY THEY
CAN COLLECT ALL THIS HONEY.
IT TAKES THEM A LOT, A
LOT OF WORK TO COLLECT
ONE POUND OF HONEY.
Xander says HOW MUCH HONEY
CAN ONE BEE MAKE?
Ed says UM, A DROP.
RIGHT NOW WE HAVE IT VERY
DRY, BUT IF IT RAINS,
NORMALLY THEY CAN PRODUCE
UP TO 200 POUNDS IN ONE BOX,
LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW.
Xander says WOW, THAT'S A
LOT OF HONEY.
DO YOU HAVE
A QUEEN BEE?
Ed says YES, THERE'S ONE QUEEN IN
EVERY HIVE, ONLY ONE QUEEN.
SHE CONTROLS
THE WHOLE HIVE.
SO, STELLA, WHAT
DO WE DO NOW?
Stella says NOW, WE TAKE THIS HONEY
INTO THE HONEY FACTORY
AND START EXTRACTING.
Xander says A HONEY FACTORY?
YOU MEAN WE CAN'T LICK
THE HONEY OUT OF THE HIVE?
Stella says THAT'S RIGHT,
ARE YOU READY?
Xander says YES.
Stella says LET'S DO IT.
In the honey factory, Xander says WHOA, WHAT IS
THIS MACHINE?
Stella says SO, THIS IS THE
EXTRACTING MACHINE.
SEE ALL THE WAX
ON YOUR HONEYCOMB?
Xander says YEAH.
Stella says YOU'RE GONNA TAKE
THAT ALL OFF.
THIS IS A VERY HOT KNIFE,
AND WE'RE GONNA JUST SLIDE
IT THROUGH SO THAT WE CAN
TAKE OFF THE WAX COVERING.
Xander says WHOA!
Stella says AWESOME JOB.
SO, IT'S ALL HONEY, AND NOW
WE'RE GONNA PUT IT INTO
THE SPINNER AND LITERALLY
SPIN OUT THE HONEY.
GREAT.
ALL RIGHT.
Stella turns on the spinner and says NOW IF YOU
LOOK DOWN HERE.
Xander says OH, IT COMES
OUT OF HERE?
Stella says YEAH, ARE YOU
READY TO SEE THIS?
Xander says WHOA!
Stella says IT'S FILTERING THROUGH A CLOTH,
AND IT'S REMOVING ANY WAX
OR DEBRIS IN THE HONEY.
SO, IT'S LITERALLY FROM
THE HIVE INTO THE JAR.
Xander says WOW.
Stella says PRETTY COOL, EH.
Xander says SO, THE STUFF THAT FILTERS
RIGHT THERE, I CAN EAT?
Stella says THAT'S RIGHT.
Xander sticks a finger in the honey and says OU, IT'S THICK.
Stella says YEAH.
Xander takes it and open his eyes wide.
Xander says DELICIOUS!
CAN I TAKE SOME OF THIS
TO MY RESTAURANT TODAY?
Stella says ABSOLUTELY, YOU
WANT TO JAR IT UP?
Xander says YEAH.
Stella says LET'S DO IT.
Xander then eats honey directly from the jar.
Xander says THANKS STELLA, BUT
NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME TO BUZZ.
(music plays)
Aynalem says I'M HEADING TO MOKU'S
RESTAURANT TO MEET CHEF PAUL,
BUT FIRST HE'S SENDING
ME ON A FOOD ADVENTURE
TO A LETTUCE FARM.
Aynalem says MARK?
Mark is watering seedlings in a greenhouse. He’s in his late forties, clean-shaven and with short white hair. He wears blue Bermuda shorts, a gray T-shirt with white stripes, an unbuttoned floral shirt, a straw hat and a pair of glasses.
Mark says OH HEY, YOU MADE IT.
SO, I HEARD YOU'RE
INTERESTED IN LETTUCE.
Aynalem says YES, I AM.
Mark says WELL, THIS IS WHERE
IT ALL STARTS.
YOU WANT TO
HAVE A LOOK?
Aynalem says WOW, YES, I DO.
Mark says THIS IS WHERE WE START
ALL THE BABY LETTUCES.
WE PUT A SINGLE SEED
INTO EACH OF THESE CELLS.
Aynalem says OH, LITTLE, TINY BABY LETTUCE.
Mark says AND BECAUSE IT'S
REALLY HOT IN HERE,
WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS
THEY START RIGHT AWAY,
AND YOU CAN SEE THEY ALL
COME UP VERY NICE AND EVENLY.
Aynalem says THEY ARE ALL
DIFFERENT KINDS?
Mark says THEY ARE.
I'VE GOT BUTTERHEAD, GREEN
ROMAINE LETTUCE, TROPICANA LEAF,
I'VE GOT RED ROMAINE,
AND OVER HERE,
THESE ONES ARE A FEW WEEKS OLD,
AND THEY'RE JUST ABOUT READY
TO GO IN THE FIELD.
THIS IS RED OAKLEAF AND
THIS IS GREEN OAKLEAF.
Aynalem says SO, I LIKE CAESAR SALAD,
WHICH ONE IS THE SALAD
FOR CAESAR SALAD?
Mark says CAESAR SALAD
IS THE ROMAINE.
Aynalem says OH.
Mark says LITTLE, TEENY ONES
AND THE BIGGER ONES.
Aynalem says HOW LONG DOES
THIS TAKE TO GROW?
WHEN DO YOU
PLANT THEM?
Mark says WE PLANT THEM WHEN THEY'VE
REALLY GOT A NICE ROOT IMPACTED
INSIDE OF THESE CELLS.
BECAUSE IT SLIDES OUT EASILY
AND YOU CAN SEE ALL THE ROOTS,
YOU CAN TELL THAT ONE'S PRETTY
MUCH READY TO GO INTO THE FIELD.
Aynalem says I HAVE A KNOCK
KNOCK JOKE FOR YOU.
Mark says OKAY.
Aynalem says KNOCK KNOCK.
Mark says WHO'S THERE?
Aynalem says LETTUCE.
Mark says LETTUCE WHO?
Aynalem says LETTUCE GO
TO THE FIELD.
Mark says OY.
Aynalem says GET IT? 'CAUSE
LETTUCE, LET US, HA-HA.
THIS GROUND
FEELS FUNNY.
WHAT KIND OF
SOIL IS THIS?
Mark says THIS IS REALLY, REALLY SANDY
SOIL AND MADE BY A GLACIER
YEARS AND YEARS
AND YEARS AGO.
AND IT MAKES IT REALLY SPECIAL
FOR GROWING BECAUSE IT'S REALLY
EASY TO WORK, BUT THE
BAD SIDE OF IT IS,
IS IT DOESN'T HOLD
MOISTURE VERY WELL,
SO THAT HAS ANOTHER
KIND OF CHALLENGE.
BUT YOU CAN SEE OUR
ROMAINE LETTUCE IS HERE.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Mark says ARE SIZING UP VERY NICELY, AND
THESE ARE THE SAME KIND THAT
YOU SAW IN THE
GREENHOUSE AS BABIES.
Aynalem says THEY'RE WAY BIGGER.
Mark says YEAH, THEY'VE BEEN IN THE FIELD
FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS NOW,
AND IN ABOUT ONE MORE WEEK
I'LL BE ABLE TO CUT THEM
AND TAKE THEM
TO MY CUSTOMERS.
Aynalem says SO, CAN I TRY THAT?
Mark says YOU WANT
TO TRY SOME?
Aynalem says YEAH.
Mark says SURE, WE CAN DO THAT.
TAKE OFF A NICE
YOUNG TENDER LEAF.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Mark says I LOVE THIS STUFF, AND I EAT
LOTS OF STUFF OUT OF THE FIELDS.
Aynalem says KIND OF BITTER.
Mark says IT'S A LITTLE
BIT BITTER.
ROMAINE LETTUCE USUALLY
IN THE FIELD HAS A
TINY BIT OF BITTERNESS.
YOU DON'T NOTICE IT IN A SALAD
BECAUSE THE DRESSING ALWAYS
KIND OF EVENS IT OUT.
BITTER IS A GOOD
PART OF OUR DIET.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DO YOU EVEN GET
THIS OUT OF THE GROUND?
Mark says WELL, I CUT IT.
SO, I'M JUST GONNA
HOLD IT LIKE THIS,
I'M GONNA GO SLIGHTLY
ABOVE THE SOIL,
AND I'M GONNA CUT
CLEANLY THROUGH.
YOU CAN SEE I'VE CUT
A MATURE LETTUCE.
IT'S GOT BEAUTIFUL
SHAPES INSIDE.
IT'S GOT REALLY
NICE COLOURS INSIDE.
Aynalem says I'VE NEVER CUT LETTUCE
WITH A KNIFE BEFORE.
Mark says YOU'RE GONNA CUT THIS
ONE, SEE RIGHT THERE?
Aynalem says OKAY, YES,
LIKE, RIGHT HERE?
Mark says JUST CUT ONE
GOOD SHOT THROUGH.
YOU KNOW IF YOU USE THE
SHARP SIDE OF THE KNIFE,
THAT WORKS REALLY WELL.
Aynalem says RIGHT, SHARP SIDE OF THE KNIFE.
Mark says THERE YOU GO.
WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF THAT?
Aynalem says WHOA, NICE.
Mark says IT'S A LITTLE SMALLER
THAN MINE, BUT I BET YA
IT'S GONNA BE
DELICIOUS, TOO.
Aynalem says NICE.
Mark says THIS FARM IS A LITTLE BIT
DIFFERENT THAN MANY FARMS.
WE GROW ORGANICALLY, WHICH
MEANS WE DON'T USE ANY HARMFUL
PESTICIDES OR FERTILIZERS
ON OUR PLANTS,
BUT IT DOES MEAN THAT
BUGS LOVE OUR PLANTS.
SO TO KEEP THE ANIMALS AWAY FROM
OUR PLANTS, WE USE ROW COVERS,
BUT THEY PROVIDE
A LOT OF BENEFIT.
IT'S WHITE, SO IT REFLECTS
TOO MUCH OF THE SUN BACK
WHEN IT'S REALLY, REALLY HOT,
AND IT MAINTAINS THE
MOISTURE UNDERNEATH, AND
IT PROTECTS THE PLANTS.
Aynalem says SO SHOULD WE COVER
THE LETTUCE NOW?
I COULD HELP
YOU WITH THAT.
Mark says WELL SURE, LET'S
DO IT NOW, THANKS.
OKAY, YOU'RE WELCOME.
Aynalem says WE'RE GONNA COVER THE LETTUCE!
Mark says LET'S GO, WE'RE GONNA WALK
THIS OVER THE LETTUCE.
BEAUTIFUL.
YOU KNOW WHAT
I CALL THIS?
Aynalem says WHAT?
Mark says PUTTING THE
LETTUCES TO BED.
Aynalem says OH YEAH, GOOD NIGHT.
Mark says AND THEN I PEG IT DOWN.
Aynalem says OH, THAT'S NEAT.
Mark says GOOD JOB.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Mark says FIVE ON THE FINISH.
Aynalem says THAT WAS FUN.
Mark says GOOD STUFF, KIDDO.
An animation shows a cat in a kitchen.
The announcer says OH, HONEY, LET'S
TALK ABOUT LETTUCE!
LETTUCE GROWS ALL OVER
THE WORLD AND IN WILD
AND DOMESTIC VARIETIES.
WE EAT DOMESTIC ONES AND
THERE ARE FIVE GENERAL TYPES.
A caption reads "Domestic: Butter head, crisped, loose leaf, Romaine and Celtuce."
The announcer says NUTRITIONALLY, LETTUCE
IS HIGH IN FIBRE,
WHICH HELPS TUMMY DIGESTION.
LETTUCE IS ALSO SUPER
STOCKED WITH VITAMIN A,
WHICH IS IMPORTANT FOR
A HEALTHY GROWING BODY.
VITAMIN A IS ALSO GOOD FOR YOUR
VISION IN TIP TOP SHAPE.
SO WAIT NO MORE, EAT A
BUNCH OF LETTUCE TODAY!
(music plays)
Xander says AYNALEM AND I
ARE IN NIAGARA FALLS,
SEARCHING OUT A FOOD
LOVER'S PARADISE.
TIME TO START COOKING
AT MOOSE AND PEPPER.
Xander runs with the jar of honey in his hands and says BUZZZZZZZ.
He enters the restaurant kitchen and says HEY TIM.
Tim says HEY XANDER,
HOW ARE YOU?
Xander says I'M GREAT.
SO, WHAT DO
WE GOT HERE?
IS THIS SALMON?
Tim says YES, IT IS.
Xander says WHAT DOES SALMON
HAVE TO DO WITH BEES?
Tim says WE'RE GONNA MAKE A BAKED SALMON
WITH A SOYA OYSTER HONEY GLAZE.
Xander says HONEY GLAZE.
Tim says AND I SEE YOU
BROUGHT SOME HONEY.
Xander says I DID.
Tim says SO, THE FIRST THING WE'RE
GONNA DO IS SEASON THE SALMON.
Xander says OH, OKAY.
Tim says PEPPER AND GARLIC.
Xander says MMM.
Tim says SPRINKLE SOME
ON THE SALMON.
DO YOU LIKE SALMON?
Xander says I THINK SO.
Tim says HAVE YOU
HAD IT BEFORE?
Xander says NOPE.
Tim says WELL, I THINK YOU'LL
ENJOY THIS ONE.
Xander says SO, WHAT NOW?
Tim says NOW, WE'RE GONNA PUT IT
IN THE OVEN AND BAKE IT.
Xander says THAT'S A BIG OVEN.
Tim says YES, IT IS.
PERFECT.
OKAY, SO NOW WE'RE
GONNA MAKE THE SAUCE.
WE HAVE HALF A CUP
OF OYSTER SAUCE.
IT'S USED A LOT IN
ORIENTAL COOKING.
A TABLESPOON
OF GARLIC.
Xander says I LOVE GARLIC.
Tim says A TEASPOON
OF SOYA SAUCE.
Xander says YUM.
Tim says HALF A TEASPOON
OF SESAME SEEDS.
AND I NEED HALF
CUP OF HONEY.
Xander says I GOT THIS FROM THE
BEES THEMSELVES.
MMM.
OH, THAT LOOKS SO GOOD.
He stirs the sauce and says BUZZZZZZZ.
Tim says OKAY, SO WE'RE GONNA BRING
IT OVER TO THE STOVE HERE,
POUR IT IN HERE
IN THE FRYING PAN.
OKAY, SO WHILE
THAT'S HEATING UP,
WE HAVE SOME VEGETABLES HERE
FOR YOU TO GO WITH YOUR DINNER.
Xander says SO IS THIS
A SIDE DISH?
Tim says IT'S A SIDE DISH.
IT COMES WITH RICE ALSO.
Xander says THE SMELL OF THIS SAUCE IS
FILLING UP THE WHOLE KITCHEN.
IT SMELLS DELICIOUS.
IT'S AMAZING TO SEE HOW THESE
FEW INGREDIENTS CAN SMELL
SO GOOD TOGETHER.
Tim flames some vegetables.
Xander says WOO-HOO!
IT'S GETTING
HEATED IN HERE.
(music plays)
Aynalem enters a restaurant and reads a sign on a chalkboard that reads "Welcome, Kid Diners to Niagara Aloha!"
Aynalem says HEY, THAT'S US!
THIS IS SUCH A
NEAT RESTAURANT.
IT'S LIKE
HAWAII IN ONTARIO!
She enters the kitchen and says HEY PAUL.
Paul says HEY, YOU MADE IT.
Paul is in his forties, bald and clean-shaven. He wears a black chef’s uniform and a black apron.
Aynalem says YES, I DID.
Paul says LET'S WASH OUR HANDS
AND MAKE A SALAD.
Aynalem says WASH YOUR HANDS
BEFORE YOU COOK.
Paul says OKAY, SO WE'RE GONNA
GRAB THE LETTUCE,
ONE CUT RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE,
STRAIGHT DOWN, YOU GOT IT.
Aynalem says THIS LETTUCE IS SO FRESH.
Paul says I'LL GET YOU TO TAKE THE
LETTUCE THAT YOU CUT IN HALF,
PUT ON TOP OF
THE OTHER LETTUCE.
YOU'RE JUST GONNA
ROUGH CHOP IT.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Paul says PERFECT, PUT
IT IN THE BOWL.
WE WILL COOK SOME RICE
NOODLES TO ADD TO THE LETTUCE.
PUT THEM IN THE
WATER, LET THEM BOIL,
AND LET THEM COOK
FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES.
WE CAN MAKE THE SALAD DRESSING,
AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A
FANTASTIC WAIKOLOA SALAD.
Aynalem says YES, WE ARE.
Paul says GONNA NEED BOWL.
Aynalem says PEANUT BUTTER?
Paul says THAT'S THE
MAIN INGREDIENT.
Aynalem says PEANUT BUTTER IN SALAD DRESSING,
I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.
Paul says JUST GET A NICE AMOUNT OF
PEANUT BUTTER IN THAT BOWL.
THIS MENU ITEM WAS
MY OWN CREATION,
AND I WAS JUST SITTING THERE ONE
NIGHT AND I WAS, LIKE, YOU KNOW
WHAT WOULD BE
REALLY, REALLY GOOD?
PEANUT BUTTER
IN A SALAD.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DID YOU
BECOME A CHEF?
Paul says STARTED AT A
VERY YOUNG AGE.
WHEN I WANTED TO
GET MY ALLOWANCE,
MY DAD DROPPED ME OFF
OUTSIDE A RESTAURANT, SAID,
"GO IN THERE AND GET
A JOB," AND I DID,
AND I'VE BEEN
COOKING EVER SINCE.
NEXT UP, A LITTLE
BIT OF GARLIC.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Paul says PUT THAT RIGHT IN WITH
THE PEANUT BUTTER.
Aynalem says SMELLS GOOD.
Paul says SESAME OIL,
HALF AN OUNCE.
Aynalem says WEE.
Paul says AND HERE WE HAVE SOME
SUGAR AND THAT'S PERFECT.
PASSION FRUIT, MY FAVOURITE
JUICE OF ALL TIME.
KEEP GOING, KEEP
GOING AND STOP.
NOW, WE'RE GONNA
MIX ALL THIS UP,
THAT'LL ALL COME TOGETHER AND
MAKE A FANTASTIC SALAD DRESSING.
Aynalem says I THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Paul says OKAY, AND HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT CHOPPING UP SOME ONIONS?
Aynalem says SURE, YES.
I LOVE RAW ONION.
Paul says EVEN THOUGH THEY
MAKE YOU CRY?
Aynalem says YES, EVEN THOUGH
THEY MAKE ME CRY.
Paul says NEXT, THESE ARE THE RICE
NOODLES FROM EARLIER.
SOME MANDARIN ORANGES.
HOW MUCH DRESSING YOU
LIKE ON YOUR SALAD?
Aynalem says UM, I LIKE QUITE
A BIT ACTUALLY.
I THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Paul says HERE'S SOME TONGUES, JUST
LIKE THE WHISK, I TILT THE BOWL,
WE'LL MIX IT UP.
NOW YOU GIVE IT
THE PROPER MIX.
THAT'S PERFECT.
Aynalem says OU, THAT LOOKS SO GOOD.

TO GO TO HAWAII.
She does a Hawaiian dance.
(music plays)
At Tim’s kitchen, Tim says I THINK WE'RE

Xander says GREAT.

Xander says THIS LOOKS GOOD.
Tim says ALL RIGHT, I
THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Xander says THE SALMON'S READY.
OH, IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
AWESOME.
SO, NOW HOW DOES THE
SAUCE COME INTO THIS?
Tim says WELL, WE'RE JUST GONNA
GARNISH THE SALMON WITH
THE SAUCE
RIGHT OVER TOP.
Xander says IS SALMON REALLY
HEALTHY FOR YOU?
Tim says IT IS VERY HEALTHY;
IT'S A VERY LEAN FISH.
Xander says SO, ARE WE DONE NOW?
Tim says WELL ACTUALLY THERE IS ONE
MORE STEP THAT I LIKE TO DO,
AND JUST A LITTLE
GARNISH FOR THE PLATE.
SO, I'M JUST GONNA TAKE
SOME BALSAMIC GLAZE.
Xander says SO, WHAT IS
THIS STUFF?
Tim says IT'S A REDUCTION OF
BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE.
Xander says IT'S LIKE A
SALAD DRESSING.
Tim says YEAH, BUT WHEN IT'S REDUCED
IT GETS REALLY SWEET,
THE SUGARS COME OUT.
Xander says CAN I DIP MY SALMON
IN THAT FRESH FLAVOUR?
Tim says YOU SURE CAN.
Xander says GREAT.
He sniffs the dish and says MM, SMELLS SO
GOOD, RIGHT MARCUS?
SALMON, FOR THE FIRST TIME
BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEES.
THANK YOU BEES.
An animated bee pops up and says BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ.
An animated dog in a suit pops up.
The announcer says HEY WINSTON, LET'S FIND
OUT MORE ABOUT HONEY!
Winston points at a cat in a chef’s uniform.
The announcer says NOT THAT HONEY, WINSTON,
YOU KNOW, BUZZ, BUZZ,
THE HONEY FROM BEES!
HONEY IS NATURALLY
HIGH IN CARBOHYDRATES,
WHICH HELP KEEP YOU ACTIVE
THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY,
BUT IS ALSO HIGH IN SUGAR,
SO A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY.
HONEY ALSO HAS HEALTH BENEFITS,
SUCH AS HELPING OUT YOUR HEART,
AS WELL IT IS A SOOTHER
OF SORE THROATS, YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU CATCH A COLD AND YOU
GET THAT OH SO SCRATCHY THROAT.
SO GIVE HONEY A TRY, IT'S
NATURE'S ULTIMATE TREAT!
Winston and the cat say YEA!
The animation ends.
Paul says SO, NOW WE'LL PUT THE
CHICKEN ON THE GRILL.
Aynalem says OKAY.
GRILLED CHICKEN ON SALAD,
THIS IS GONNA BE SO GOOD.
Paul says I'M GOING TO ADD JUST A
DASH OF HAWAIIAN SPICE.
SO, WE GET THIS
IMPORTED FROM HAWAII.
Aynalem says WHAT'S IN
HAWAIIAN SPICE?
Paul says IT IS A SECRET.
OUR SUPPLIER WILL NOT
TELL US THE INGREDIENTS
THAT ARE IN THERE.
Aynalem says A SECRET INGREDIENT,
THAT'S AWESOME.
CAN I JUST
THROW A DASH?
Paul says OF COURSE, YOU CAN NEVER
HAVE TOO MUCH FLAVOUR.
EXCELLENT.
WELL, LET'S
PLATE THE SALAD.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Paul says WE WANT IT TO LOOK FANCY,
SO WE HAVE A BANANA LEAF.
PUT THAT SALAD IN THE BOWL
AS MUCH AS YOU WANT TO EAT.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CHOP THE CHICKEN?
Aynalem says YES, I WOULD.
IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
Paul says SCOOP THAT ON
TOP OF THE SALAD.
Aynalem says OU, WHAT'S THAT?
Paul says CASHEWS.
Aynalem says CASHEWS?
NOW, WE'RE ADDING
NUTS TO THIS SALAD.
Paul says AND THE LAST TOUCH,
WONTON STRIPS.
Aynalem says CRISPY WONTONS.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THIS
IS GOING, BUT I LIKE IT.
Paul says TIME TO EAT.
Aynalem says OKAY, LET'S GO.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A blond girl says WHEN IT COMES TO SALAD,
I LIKE CAESAR SALAD.
THE CROUTONS
ARE THE BEST.
A blond girl in a black T-shirt says I LOVE GREEK SALAD.
YOU CAN PUT TOMATOES, CUCUMBERS
AND OLIVES, BUT NO LETTUCE.
(music plays)
Xander says WE ARE IN
NIAGARA FALLS, ONTARIO,
TO COOK SOME FOOD AND NOW...
IT'S TIME TO EAT.
I CAN'T WAIT TO TASTE
HOW THE FRESH HONEY MIXES
WITH THE SALMON.
MM, IT'S LIKE THE
OUTSIDE OF IT'S HARDER,
BUT THE INSIDE IS NICE
AND SOFT STILL LIKE FISH.
Tim says YEAH, IT'S A VERY
FLAKY FISH, TOO.
Xander says MM-HMM.
MMM, MMM.
Tim says SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Xander says I WOULD SO ORDER THIS.
THIS IS SO GOOD.
AND THERE'S JUST ENOUGH
SWEET AND JUST ENOUGH SALT.
IT'S LIKE A
CAKE BUT BETTER.
Xander gives Tim a thumb up.
Tim says YOU LIKE IT?
Xander says THESE BEES REALLY KNOW
WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
AND YOU, TOO, DO.
Tim says THANKS XANDER.
(music plays)
Aynalem says ARE YOU READY
TO EAT THIS?
Paul says I SURE AM.
Aynalem says DON'T MIND
MY MESSINESS.
Paul says IT'S QUITE OKAY.
Aynalem says THIS LETTUCE IS SO FRESH, IT
REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
Paul says WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF THE NUTS
AND THE MANDARIN
ORANGES IN THE SALAD?
Aynalem says WOW, IT REALLY MAKES
THE SALAD WAY BETTER.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU CREATED
THIS DRESSING YOURSELF.
Paul says IT ALL CAME TO ME ONE NIGHT
AND I JUST HAD TO EXPERIMENT
THE FOLLOWING MORNING.
Aynalem says HOW DO YOU SAY THANK
YOU IN HAWAIIAN, PAUL?
Paul says MAHALO.
Aynalem says MAHALO FOR THE SALAD AND FOR
THIS LETTUCE, IT WAS SO FUN.
Paul says YOU'RE WELCOME
BACK ANYTIME.
Aynalem says YES, I WILL COME BACK.
(music plays)
Aynalem and Xander meet by the falls.
Aynalem says HEY XANDER, YOU WOULDN'T
BELIEVE ALL THE GREAT KINDS
OF LETTUCE HERE
IN NIAGARA FALLS.
Xander says YEAH, AND THERE'S SO MANY BEES,
TOO, THEY MAKE SUCH GREAT HONEY.
I PUT IT ON FISH.
FISH!
Aynalem says FISH!
Xander says YEAH.
Aynalem says WELL, I GUESS THAT'S WHY
PEOPLE COME HERE ALL THE TIME.
They both say THE LETTUCE
AND THE HONEY!
THE LETTUCE
AND THE HONEY!
WOO!
Aynalem says HEY LOOK, THERE'S
THE WATERFALL, TOO.
They look at the camera and make an "Okay" hand gesture.
As the gag reel rolls, end credits roll.
Aynalem eats a huge hamburger and says MM, THIS IS GOOD.
(LAUGHS)
Xander and Aynalem do a little dance by the falls and laugh.
Aynalem IT'S SO GOOD.
Xander sneezes and says SORRY.

WATCHING KID DINERS!

(UPBEAT MUSIC)
A caption reads "Aynalem."

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!
Xander says I'M XANDER, AND RIGHT
NOW ON KID DINERS,
AYNALEM AND I ARE
IN NIAGARA FALLS.
AYNALEM MAKES
FRIENDS WITH A SALAD.
Aynalem covers some growing with a sheet and says GOOD NIGHT.
Xander says AND I WEAR A FUNNY OUTFIT.
HOW DO I LOOK?
Xander appears in a beekeeping suit.
A beekeeper says YOU LOOK AWESOME.
YOU LOOK LIKE A BEEKEEPER.
Xander says TO KEEP BEES AWAY, OF COURSE.
YOU'RE WATCHING KID DINERS!
On an animated Canada shaped chopping board, a hand puts a pin on Niagara Falls.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A girl with wavy brown hair says ON A HOT DAY THERE'S NOTHING
BETTER THAN BUBBLEGUM ICE CREAM.
A girl with straight light brown hair says VANILLA WITH CHOCOLATE
SAUCE AND SPRINKLES.
A girl with straight light brown hair in a bob cut says AND FISH, I LOVE FISH.
A blond boy with glasses says I LOVE CHEESEBURGERS WITH
FRENCH FRIES AND KETCHUP.
Xander says WE'RE IN
NIAGARA FALLS, ONTARIO,
ON THE HUNT FOR SOMETHING TASTY.
Aynalem says I HEAR IT'S SO HOT HERE,
FOOD GROWS ALMOST ALL YEAR.
Xander says HEY, CHECK OUT
THIS FOOD TRUCK.
Aynalem says HEY, LOOK, BUBBLE and
SQUEAK WITH KID DINERS.
Xander says WHICH ONE ARE YOU,
BUBBLE OR SQUEAK?
Aynalem says I THINK I'M SQUEAK.
(SQUEAK)
Xander says I THINK I'M BUBBLE.
Aynalem says BUBBLE.
The owner of the food truck says HELLO GOV'NAS.
Xander says HELLO.
She’s in her twenties, with red hair in a bun and wears glasses, a beret, a floral top and a blue apron.
The girl says BUBBLE AND SQUEAKS
ACTUALLY ARE NOT NAMES.
IT'S A BRITISH FOOD.
Xander says REALLY?
The girl says IT'S USUALLY WHEN WE FRY UP THE
LEFTOVERS FROM THE NIGHT BEFORE
WITH A FRIED
EGG ON TOP.
Aynalem says CAN WE MAKE IT?
The girl says ABSOLUTELY.
Aynalem says WE GET TO MAKE BRITISH FOOD.
The girl says SO JUST IN HERE WE HAVE WHAT
WOULD BE LEFTOVER AFTER A
TRADITIONAL ROAST DINNER,
BRAISED CABBAGE, SOME ROASTED
POTATOES AND SOME
BRAISED CARROTS AS WELL.
She says to Xander I'M GONNA NEED YOU TO TAKE
EACH OF THOSE POTATOES
AND QUARTER THEM FOR ME.
She gives Aynalem a grater and says ALL RIGHT, AND WE DO
HAVE SOME GRATING TO DO.
HERE WE HAVE SOME VERY
STINKY SHARP CHEDDAR CHEESE.
Aynalem says OKAY, WHY IS
IT SO STINKY?
The girl says IT'S FANTASTIC,
THAT'S WHY.
Aynalem says WOO-HOO.
The girl says YOU GUYS LIKE
CHEESE, YEAH?
Aynalem says YEAH.
I LOVE IT.
I'M A CHEESE
LOVER.
The girl says NOW, WE'RE GOING TO
CHOP UP SOME CABBAGE.
SO, DO YOU GUYS
LIKE CABBAGE?
Aynalem says YEAH.
Xander says OH YEAH.
The girl says YEAH, REALLY?
WHEN I WAS A KID
I HATED CABBAGE.
Xander says REALLY?
The girl says YEAH. ONE MORE THING
TO CHOP, SOME HAM,
AS SMALL AS YOU
POSSIBLY CAN.
SO, MAYBE CHOP IT ONE WAY
AND THEN MAKE A PILE
AND THEN CHOP IT
THE OTHER WAY.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DID YOU
GET INTO COOKING?
The girl says WHEN I WAS VERY LITTLE, MY NAN
USED TO DO ALL THE COOKING IN
THE FAMILY, AND I USED TO LOVE
TO SIT IN HER KITCHEN AND WATCH
HER MAKE PIES AND DIFFERENT
ROASTS AND THINGS.
Xander says IT DEFINITELY HELPS TO
HAVE AN ADULT HELPING YOU
WITH A KNIFE
IN THE KITCHEN.
The girl says SO, WE GOT TO THROW IN
THOSE CARROTS THERE.
She shows them a potato masher and says INSTEAD OF USING THIS GUY,
IF YOU GUYS ARE UP FOR IT,
HANDS ARE PROBABLY
THE BEST MASHERS.
Xander says YES.
Aynalem says OH, DON'T WORRY,
WE'RE UP FOR IT.
Xander says OU, THIS
FEELS SO NICE.
Aynalem says THIS FEELS SO COOL.
Xander says OH, MIXING THIS UP WITH
YOUR HANDS IS REALLY GREAT.
The girl says OKAY, WE'RE GONNA MAKE
THIS EVEN MORE MESSY.
Aynalem says REALLY?
The girl says YEAH, 'CAUSE WE HAVE
TO ADD AN EGG IN THERE.
Aynalem says OKAY.
An animated egg pops up and says EGGCELLENT!
The girl cracks an egg in the bowl.
The kids go OHHH!
Aynalem says YEAH, IT IS
REALLY MESSY.
Xander says IT'S SO EGGY.
Aynalem says OH, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT,
WAIT, OH, MY GOSH.
Xander says WHAT THE HECK IS
SHE LOOKING FOR NOW?
Aynalem says DON'T DO ANYTHING, MY
RING JUST FELL IN THERE.
I BETTER FIND THAT RING FAST,
I DON'T WANT XANDER TO EAT IT.
AND IT'S RIGHT HERE.
(LAUGHING)
Aynalem says NOW IT'S BUBBLES
AND SQUEAKS AND RINGS.
The girl says LET'S FRY
THIS ONE UP.
YOU'RE GONNA TAKE
A SMALL HANDFUL,
NOW PLOP IT RIGHT
IN THE OIL.
PAT THEM DOWN A LITTLE BIT SO
THEY GET A LITTLE BIT FLATTER.
Aynalem says I HEAR IT BUBBLING
AND SQUEAKING.
Xander says YEAH, ME, TOO.
The girl says THIS IS WHY IT'S CALLED
BUBBLE AND SQUEAK.
WE'RE GONNA ACTUALLY
FLIP THEM OVER.
IT'S NOT GONNA MATTER
IF THEY ALL BREAK UP
'CAUSE IT'S ALMOST
LIKE A HASH, RIGHT.
LET IT BAKE FOR A
LITTLE BIT LONGER.
LET'S FIRE UP
SOME TOMATOES.
Aynalem says OKAY.
The girl says SO, WE'RE GONNA
NEED SOME BUTTER.
Aynalem puts the tomatoes on the pan and say THERE'S MY
SMILEY FACE.
The girl opens the grill.
Aynalem says OUUU.
Xander says OUUU.
The girl says NOW, WE'RE GOING
TO FRY SOME EGGS.
THE TRICK TO EGGS ON THE
BARBECUE IS ACTUALLY
A LITTLE BIT OF WATER.
THERE YOU GO, AND I'M GONNA
CLOSE THE LID, THERE WE GO.
SO, WE'RE PRETTY
MUCH GOOD TO PLATE.
Xander almost drops the cardboard container and says OH!
The girl says WHOOP, YOU GOT IT?
Xander says YEAH.
HOLD IT, RIGHT.
OU, THAT
LOOKS SO GOOD.
The girl says PUT A COUPLE OF THOSE
TOMATOES ON THIS SIDE HERE.
Aynalem says IN BRITAIN DO
YOU SAY TOMATOES?
The girl says WE DO SAY TOMATOES.
Aynalem says TOMATO, TOMATO.
The girl says WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA PUT
SOME SOUR CREAM ON IT,
A LITTLE BIT OF CHIVES,
AND THEN WE'LL POP
THOSE EGGS ON
TOP AS WELL.
THE LAST THING THAT WE
HAVE TO PUT ON THERE IS
SOME TOMATO CHUTNEY.
IT'S LIKE A JAM MADE
OUT OF TOMATOES, YEAH.
THERE'S ALL KINDS
OF DIFFERENT THINGS.
THERE'S MUSTARD SEED IN
THERE, THERE'S GINGER.
WHY DON'T WE GO TRY IT AND
SEE WHAT YOU GUYS THINK?
Aynalem says YES.
The girl says AWESOME.
Xander says THIS IS A GREAT WAY
TO USE LEFTOVERS.
The girl says SOMEBODY STAB THAT YOLK THERE
AND LET IT RUN EVERYWHERE.
DIG IN.
YOU WANT TO GET THAT
YOLK ALL OVER EVERYTHING.
Aynalem says OH, SORRY.
Xander says BUBBLE AND SQUEAK, I
ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE IT.
THAT IS REALLY GOOD.
The girl says THANK YOU.
AND YOU
GUYS MADE IT.
Aynalem says I REALLY
LIKE THIS JAM.
THIS CHUTNEY IS SO GOOD.
Xander says MAN, I'M LOVING THIS SO MUCH,
BUT I THINK IT MIGHT BE TIME
FOR US TO GO MEET
OUR OTHER CHEFS.
Aynalem says YEAH, THANK YOU, BYE.
THANK YOU, BYE.
The girl says THANKS GUYS,
SEE YOU LATER.
Aynalem comes back, takes the container with her and says BYE.
The girl says SEE YA.
Xander says THAT WAS TASTY.
NOW IT'S TIME TO
MEET OUR OTHER CHEFS.
THIS IS CHEF TIM OF
MOOSE AND PEPPER.
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE
WHAT'S IN THE MENU HERE.
Tim is in his late forties, clean-shaven and with short wavy white hair. He wears a black T-shirt.
Xander says BUT FIRST, HE'S SENDING
ME ON A FOOD ADVENTURE
TO GET SOME HONEY.
He walks by a cage with a parrot inside.
The parrot says BROCK, KID DINERS.
Xander says WHOA, WHAT'S A PARROT
DOING ON A HONEY FARM?
The parrot says BROCK, WHAT'S A XANDER DOING
ON A HONEY FARM, BROCK?
BYE CHEEKO.
Cheeko says BYE XANDER.
Xander says THIS IS STELLA.
SHE'S GONNA SHOW ME HOW TO
GET HONEY OUT OF THE BEEHIVES.
HEY STELLA.
Stella is in her twenties, with long straight black hair and she wears a white beekeeping suit.
Stella says HEY XANDER.
Xander says WHAT ARE THESE SUITS?
Stella says OH, THESE ARE
BEEKEEPING SUITS.
Xander says REALLY?
Stella says YEAH.
Xander says LOOKS LIKE I GOT TO
PUT ON THIS SPACESUIT
TO PROTECT ME
FROM THE BEES.
Stella says YOU GOT IT.
IT'S HARDER
THAN IT LOOKS.
YEAH, PERFECT.
Xander says I LOOK BEEUTIFUL BECAUSE
I'M IN A BEEKEEPER SUIT.
Stella says PERFECT.
NOW YOU GOT TO
PUT ON THE HELMET.
Xander says ALL RIGHT.
Stella says PERFECT.
Xander says HOW DO I LOOK?
Stella says YOU LOOK AWESOME, YOU
LOOK LIKE A BEEKEEPER.
Xander says THIS SPACESUIT PROTECTS ME
IN CASE THE BEES GET ANGRY
AND WANT TO STING ME.
An animated bee pops up.
Xander says BUT I'M NOT PLANNING ON
MAKING THEM MAD.
BUZZZZ.
Ed says HI, YOU WANT TO DO
SOME BEEKEEPING?
Ed is in his sixties, with short white hair and a moustache. He wears gray trousers, a printed white shirt and a baseball hat.
Xander says THIS IS ED.
HE'S STELLA'S DAD.
I GUESS HE DOESN'T
HAVE TO WEAR A SUIT.
Ed says YOU CAN OPEN THIS ONE
THERE, LIFT IT UP SLOWLY.
Xander opens a beehive and says I'M NOT NERVOUS.
Ed grabs the lid and says AND WE'RE GONNA SET
IT RIGHT ASIDE HERE.
SMOKE THEM A
LITTLE BIT.
Xander says WHAT DOES
THIS SMOKE DO?
Ed says IT CALMS THE BEES DOWN AND
CHASES THEM AWAY THERE A BIT,
SO WE CAN
WORK WITH THEM.
Xander says I WANT YOU TO
RELAX, BEES, RELAX.
Ed says THIS IS THE
HIVE TOOL.
YOU BLOW IT RIGHT IN HERE AND
LIFT UP ONE FRAME LIKE THIS.
SEE, NOW YOU CAN TAKE
THE WHOLE FRAME OUT.
Xander says LOOK AT ALL THESE BEES!
Ed says THEN YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE BRUSH
AND BRUSH THEM OFF A LITTLE BIT.
Xander says EXCUSE ME, I JUST NEED
YOU OFF HERE FOR A SECOND.
SO, WHERE'S THE HONEY?
Ed says RIGHT IN HERE.
SEE THIS HERE, IT'S ALL
FULL OF HONEY THERE.
Xander says COME ON, GET
OFF, COME ON.
SO, HOW DOES
THIS WORK?
WHAT ARE THE
BEES DOING IN HERE?
Ed says WE RAISE THE BEES TO ABOUT
50,000 BEES IN ONE BOX HERE.
Xander says THERE'S 50,000 BEES
IN THIS ONE BOX?
Ed says YES, THERE IS, THAT'S WHY THEY
CAN COLLECT ALL THIS HONEY.
IT TAKES THEM A LOT, A
LOT OF WORK TO COLLECT
ONE POUND OF HONEY.
Xander says HOW MUCH HONEY
CAN ONE BEE MAKE?
Ed says UM, A DROP.
RIGHT NOW WE HAVE IT VERY
DRY, BUT IF IT RAINS,
NORMALLY THEY CAN PRODUCE
UP TO 200 POUNDS IN ONE BOX,
LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW.
Xander says WOW, THAT'S A
LOT OF HONEY.
DO YOU HAVE
A QUEEN BEE?
Ed says YES, THERE'S ONE QUEEN IN
EVERY HIVE, ONLY ONE QUEEN.
SHE CONTROLS
THE WHOLE HIVE.
SO, STELLA, WHAT
DO WE DO NOW?
Stella says NOW, WE TAKE THIS HONEY
INTO THE HONEY FACTORY
AND START EXTRACTING.
Xander says A HONEY FACTORY?
YOU MEAN WE CAN'T LICK
THE HONEY OUT OF THE HIVE?
Stella says THAT'S RIGHT,
ARE YOU READY?
Xander says YES.
Stella says LET'S DO IT.
In the honey factory, Xander says WHOA, WHAT IS
THIS MACHINE?
Stella says SO, THIS IS THE
EXTRACTING MACHINE.
SEE ALL THE WAX
ON YOUR HONEYCOMB?
Xander says YEAH.
Stella says YOU'RE GONNA TAKE
THAT ALL OFF.
THIS IS A VERY HOT KNIFE,
AND WE'RE GONNA JUST SLIDE
IT THROUGH SO THAT WE CAN
TAKE OFF THE WAX COVERING.
Xander says WHOA!
Stella says AWESOME JOB.
SO, IT'S ALL HONEY, AND NOW
WE'RE GONNA PUT IT INTO
THE SPINNER AND LITERALLY
SPIN OUT THE HONEY.
GREAT.
ALL RIGHT.
Stella turns on the spinner and says NOW IF YOU
LOOK DOWN HERE.
Xander says OH, IT COMES
OUT OF HERE?
Stella says YEAH, ARE YOU
READY TO SEE THIS?
Xander says WHOA!
Stella says IT'S FILTERING THROUGH A CLOTH,
AND IT'S REMOVING ANY WAX
OR DEBRIS IN THE HONEY.
SO, IT'S LITERALLY FROM
THE HIVE INTO THE JAR.
Xander says WOW.
Stella says PRETTY COOL, EH.
Xander says SO, THE STUFF THAT FILTERS
RIGHT THERE, I CAN EAT?
Stella says THAT'S RIGHT.
Xander sticks a finger in the honey and says OU, IT'S THICK.
Stella says YEAH.
Xander takes it and open his eyes wide.
Xander says DELICIOUS!
CAN I TAKE SOME OF THIS
TO MY RESTAURANT TODAY?
Stella says ABSOLUTELY, YOU
WANT TO JAR IT UP?
Xander says YEAH.
Stella says LET'S DO IT.
Xander then eats honey directly from the jar.
Xander says THANKS STELLA, BUT
NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME TO BUZZ.
(music plays)
Aynalem says I'M HEADING TO MOKU'S
RESTAURANT TO MEET CHEF PAUL,
BUT FIRST HE'S SENDING
ME ON A FOOD ADVENTURE
TO A LETTUCE FARM.
Aynalem says MARK?
Mark is watering seedlings in a greenhouse. He’s in his late forties, clean-shaven and with short white hair. He wears blue Bermuda shorts, a gray T-shirt with white stripes, an unbuttoned floral shirt, a straw hat and a pair of glasses.
Mark says OH HEY, YOU MADE IT.
SO, I HEARD YOU'RE
INTERESTED IN LETTUCE.
Aynalem says YES, I AM.
Mark says WELL, THIS IS WHERE
IT ALL STARTS.
YOU WANT TO
HAVE A LOOK?
Aynalem says WOW, YES, I DO.
Mark says THIS IS WHERE WE START
ALL THE BABY LETTUCES.
WE PUT A SINGLE SEED
INTO EACH OF THESE CELLS.
Aynalem says OH, LITTLE, TINY BABY LETTUCE.
Mark says AND BECAUSE IT'S
REALLY HOT IN HERE,
WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS
THEY START RIGHT AWAY,
AND YOU CAN SEE THEY ALL
COME UP VERY NICE AND EVENLY.
Aynalem says THEY ARE ALL
DIFFERENT KINDS?
Mark says THEY ARE.
I'VE GOT BUTTERHEAD, GREEN
ROMAINE LETTUCE, TROPICANA LEAF,
I'VE GOT RED ROMAINE,
AND OVER HERE,
THESE ONES ARE A FEW WEEKS OLD,
AND THEY'RE JUST ABOUT READY
TO GO IN THE FIELD.
THIS IS RED OAKLEAF AND
THIS IS GREEN OAKLEAF.
Aynalem says SO, I LIKE CAESAR SALAD,
WHICH ONE IS THE SALAD
FOR CAESAR SALAD?
Mark says CAESAR SALAD
IS THE ROMAINE.
Aynalem says OH.
Mark says LITTLE, TEENY ONES
AND THE BIGGER ONES.
Aynalem says HOW LONG DOES
THIS TAKE TO GROW?
WHEN DO YOU
PLANT THEM?
Mark says WE PLANT THEM WHEN THEY'VE
REALLY GOT A NICE ROOT IMPACTED
INSIDE OF THESE CELLS.
BECAUSE IT SLIDES OUT EASILY
AND YOU CAN SEE ALL THE ROOTS,
YOU CAN TELL THAT ONE'S PRETTY
MUCH READY TO GO INTO THE FIELD.
Aynalem says I HAVE A KNOCK
KNOCK JOKE FOR YOU.
Mark says OKAY.
Aynalem says KNOCK KNOCK.
Mark says WHO'S THERE?
Aynalem says LETTUCE.
Mark says LETTUCE WHO?
Aynalem says LETTUCE GO
TO THE FIELD.
Mark says OY.
Aynalem says GET IT? 'CAUSE
LETTUCE, LET US, HA-HA.
THIS GROUND
FEELS FUNNY.
WHAT KIND OF
SOIL IS THIS?
Mark says THIS IS REALLY, REALLY SANDY
SOIL AND MADE BY A GLACIER
YEARS AND YEARS
AND YEARS AGO.
AND IT MAKES IT REALLY SPECIAL
FOR GROWING BECAUSE IT'S REALLY
EASY TO WORK, BUT THE
BAD SIDE OF IT IS,
IS IT DOESN'T HOLD
MOISTURE VERY WELL,
SO THAT HAS ANOTHER
KIND OF CHALLENGE.
BUT YOU CAN SEE OUR
ROMAINE LETTUCE IS HERE.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Mark says ARE SIZING UP VERY NICELY, AND
THESE ARE THE SAME KIND THAT
YOU SAW IN THE
GREENHOUSE AS BABIES.
Aynalem says THEY'RE WAY BIGGER.
Mark says YEAH, THEY'VE BEEN IN THE FIELD
FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS NOW,
AND IN ABOUT ONE MORE WEEK
I'LL BE ABLE TO CUT THEM
AND TAKE THEM
TO MY CUSTOMERS.
Aynalem says SO, CAN I TRY THAT?
Mark says YOU WANT
TO TRY SOME?
Aynalem says YEAH.
Mark says SURE, WE CAN DO THAT.
TAKE OFF A NICE
YOUNG TENDER LEAF.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Mark says I LOVE THIS STUFF, AND I EAT
LOTS OF STUFF OUT OF THE FIELDS.
Aynalem says KIND OF BITTER.
Mark says IT'S A LITTLE
BIT BITTER.
ROMAINE LETTUCE USUALLY
IN THE FIELD HAS A
TINY BIT OF BITTERNESS.
YOU DON'T NOTICE IT IN A SALAD
BECAUSE THE DRESSING ALWAYS
KIND OF EVENS IT OUT.
BITTER IS A GOOD
PART OF OUR DIET.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DO YOU EVEN GET
THIS OUT OF THE GROUND?
Mark says WELL, I CUT IT.
SO, I'M JUST GONNA
HOLD IT LIKE THIS,
I'M GONNA GO SLIGHTLY
ABOVE THE SOIL,
AND I'M GONNA CUT
CLEANLY THROUGH.
YOU CAN SEE I'VE CUT
A MATURE LETTUCE.
IT'S GOT BEAUTIFUL
SHAPES INSIDE.
IT'S GOT REALLY
NICE COLOURS INSIDE.
Aynalem says I'VE NEVER CUT LETTUCE
WITH A KNIFE BEFORE.
Mark says YOU'RE GONNA CUT THIS
ONE, SEE RIGHT THERE?
Aynalem says OKAY, YES,
LIKE, RIGHT HERE?
Mark says JUST CUT ONE
GOOD SHOT THROUGH.
YOU KNOW IF YOU USE THE
SHARP SIDE OF THE KNIFE,
THAT WORKS REALLY WELL.
Aynalem says RIGHT, SHARP SIDE OF THE KNIFE.
Mark says THERE YOU GO.
WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF THAT?
Aynalem says WHOA, NICE.
Mark says IT'S A LITTLE SMALLER
THAN MINE, BUT I BET YA
IT'S GONNA BE
DELICIOUS, TOO.
Aynalem says NICE.
Mark says THIS FARM IS A LITTLE BIT
DIFFERENT THAN MANY FARMS.
WE GROW ORGANICALLY, WHICH
MEANS WE DON'T USE ANY HARMFUL
PESTICIDES OR FERTILIZERS
ON OUR PLANTS,
BUT IT DOES MEAN THAT
BUGS LOVE OUR PLANTS.
SO TO KEEP THE ANIMALS AWAY FROM
OUR PLANTS, WE USE ROW COVERS,
BUT THEY PROVIDE
A LOT OF BENEFIT.
IT'S WHITE, SO IT REFLECTS
TOO MUCH OF THE SUN BACK
WHEN IT'S REALLY, REALLY HOT,
AND IT MAINTAINS THE
MOISTURE UNDERNEATH, AND
IT PROTECTS THE PLANTS.
Aynalem says SO SHOULD WE COVER
THE LETTUCE NOW?
I COULD HELP
YOU WITH THAT.
Mark says WELL SURE, LET'S
DO IT NOW, THANKS.
OKAY, YOU'RE WELCOME.
Aynalem says WE'RE GONNA COVER THE LETTUCE!
Mark says LET'S GO, WE'RE GONNA WALK
THIS OVER THE LETTUCE.
BEAUTIFUL.
YOU KNOW WHAT
I CALL THIS?
Aynalem says WHAT?
Mark says PUTTING THE
LETTUCES TO BED.
Aynalem says OH YEAH, GOOD NIGHT.
Mark says AND THEN I PEG IT DOWN.
Aynalem says OH, THAT'S NEAT.
Mark says GOOD JOB.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Mark says FIVE ON THE FINISH.
Aynalem says THAT WAS FUN.
Mark says GOOD STUFF, KIDDO.
An animation shows a cat in a kitchen.
The announcer says OH, HONEY, LET'S
TALK ABOUT LETTUCE!
LETTUCE GROWS ALL OVER
THE WORLD AND IN WILD
AND DOMESTIC VARIETIES.
WE EAT DOMESTIC ONES AND
THERE ARE FIVE GENERAL TYPES.
A caption reads "Domestic: Butter head, crisped, loose leaf, Romaine and Celtuce."
The announcer says NUTRITIONALLY, LETTUCE
IS HIGH IN FIBRE,
WHICH HELPS TUMMY DIGESTION.
LETTUCE IS ALSO SUPER
STOCKED WITH VITAMIN A,
WHICH IS IMPORTANT FOR
A HEALTHY GROWING BODY.
VITAMIN A IS ALSO GOOD FOR YOUR
VISION IN TIP TOP SHAPE.
SO WAIT NO MORE, EAT A
BUNCH OF LETTUCE TODAY!
(music plays)
Xander says AYNALEM AND I
ARE IN NIAGARA FALLS,
SEARCHING OUT A FOOD
LOVER'S PARADISE.
TIME TO START COOKING
AT MOOSE AND PEPPER.
Xander runs with the jar of honey in his hands and says BUZZZZZZZ.
He enters the restaurant kitchen and says HEY TIM.
Tim says HEY XANDER,
HOW ARE YOU?
Xander says I'M GREAT.
SO, WHAT DO
WE GOT HERE?
IS THIS SALMON?
Tim says YES, IT IS.
Xander says WHAT DOES SALMON
HAVE TO DO WITH BEES?
Tim says WE'RE GONNA MAKE A BAKED SALMON
WITH A SOYA OYSTER HONEY GLAZE.
Xander says HONEY GLAZE.
Tim says AND I SEE YOU
BROUGHT SOME HONEY.
Xander says I DID.
Tim says SO, THE FIRST THING WE'RE
GONNA DO IS SEASON THE SALMON.
Xander says OH, OKAY.

Xander says NOPE.
Tim says WELL, I THINK YOU'LL
ENJOY THIS ONE.
Xander says SO, WHAT NOW?
Tim says NOW, WE'RE GONNA PUT IT

Xander says THAT'S A BIG OVEN.
Tim says YES, IT IS.

(music plays)
Aynalem enters a restaurant and reads a sign on a chalkboard that reads "Welcome, Kid Diners to Niagara Aloha!"
Aynalem says HEY, THAT'S US!
THIS IS SUCH A
NEAT RESTAURANT.
IT'S LIKE
HAWAII IN ONTARIO!
She enters the kitchen and says HEY PAUL.
Paul says HEY, YOU MADE IT.
Paul is in his forties, bald and clean-shaven. He wears a black chef’s uniform and a black apron.
Aynalem says YES, I DID.
Paul says LET'S WASH OUR HANDS
AND MAKE A SALAD.
Aynalem says WASH YOUR HANDS
BEFORE YOU COOK.
Paul says OKAY, SO WE'RE GONNA
GRAB THE LETTUCE,
ONE CUT RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE,
STRAIGHT DOWN, YOU GOT IT.
Aynalem says THIS LETTUCE IS SO FRESH.
Paul says I'LL GET YOU TO TAKE THE
LETTUCE THAT YOU CUT IN HALF,
PUT ON TOP OF
THE OTHER LETTUCE.
YOU'RE JUST GONNA
ROUGH CHOP IT.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Paul says PERFECT, PUT
IT IN THE BOWL.
WE WILL COOK SOME RICE
NOODLES TO ADD TO THE LETTUCE.
PUT THEM IN THE
WATER, LET THEM BOIL,
AND LET THEM COOK
FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES.
WE CAN MAKE THE SALAD DRESSING,
AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A
FANTASTIC WAIKOLOA SALAD.
Aynalem says YES, WE ARE.
Paul says GONNA NEED BOWL.
Aynalem says PEANUT BUTTER?
Paul says THAT'S THE
MAIN INGREDIENT.
Aynalem says PEANUT BUTTER IN SALAD DRESSING,
I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.
Paul says JUST GET A NICE AMOUNT OF
PEANUT BUTTER IN THAT BOWL.
THIS MENU ITEM WAS
MY OWN CREATION,
AND I WAS JUST SITTING THERE ONE
NIGHT AND I WAS, LIKE, YOU KNOW
WHAT WOULD BE
REALLY, REALLY GOOD?
PEANUT BUTTER
IN A SALAD.
Aynalem says SO, HOW DID YOU
BECOME A CHEF?
Paul says STARTED AT A
VERY YOUNG AGE.
WHEN I WANTED TO
GET MY ALLOWANCE,
MY DAD DROPPED ME OFF
OUTSIDE A RESTAURANT, SAID,
"GO IN THERE AND GET
A JOB," AND I DID,
AND I'VE BEEN
COOKING EVER SINCE.
NEXT UP, A LITTLE
BIT OF GARLIC.
Aynalem says THERE WE GO.
Paul says PUT THAT RIGHT IN WITH
THE PEANUT BUTTER.
Aynalem says SMELLS GOOD.
Paul says SESAME OIL,
HALF AN OUNCE.
Aynalem says WEE.
Paul says AND HERE WE HAVE SOME
SUGAR AND THAT'S PERFECT.
PASSION FRUIT, MY FAVOURITE
JUICE OF ALL TIME.
KEEP GOING, KEEP
GOING AND STOP.
NOW, WE'RE GONNA
MIX ALL THIS UP,
THAT'LL ALL COME TOGETHER AND
MAKE A FANTASTIC SALAD DRESSING.
Aynalem says I THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Paul says OKAY, AND HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT CHOPPING UP SOME ONIONS?
Aynalem says SURE, YES.
I LOVE RAW ONION.
Paul says EVEN THOUGH THEY
MAKE YOU CRY?
Aynalem says YES, EVEN THOUGH
THEY MAKE ME CRY.
Paul says NEXT, THESE ARE THE RICE
NOODLES FROM EARLIER.
SOME MANDARIN ORANGES.
HOW MUCH DRESSING YOU
LIKE ON YOUR SALAD?
Aynalem says UM, I LIKE QUITE
A BIT ACTUALLY.
I THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Paul says HERE'S SOME TONGUES, JUST
LIKE THE WHISK, I TILT THE BOWL,
WE'LL MIX IT UP.
NOW YOU GIVE IT
THE PROPER MIX.
THAT'S PERFECT.
Aynalem says OU, THAT LOOKS SO GOOD.
NOW, I REALLY WANT
TO GO TO HAWAII.
She does a Hawaiian dance.
(music plays)
At Tim’s kitchen, Tim says I THINK WE'RE
REALLY TO PLATE.
Xander says GREAT.
GOT THE RICE.
Tim says TAKE THE VEGETABLES AND
PUT THEM ON THE PLATE.
Xander says THIS LOOKS GOOD.
Tim says ALL RIGHT, I
THINK THAT'S GOOD.
Xander says THE SALMON'S READY.
OH, IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
AWESOME.
SO, NOW HOW DOES THE
SAUCE COME INTO THIS?
Tim says WELL, WE'RE JUST GONNA
GARNISH THE SALMON WITH
THE SAUCE
RIGHT OVER TOP.
Xander says IS SALMON REALLY
HEALTHY FOR YOU?
Tim says IT IS VERY HEALTHY;
IT'S A VERY LEAN FISH.
Xander says SO, ARE WE DONE NOW?
Tim says WELL ACTUALLY THERE IS ONE
MORE STEP THAT I LIKE TO DO,
AND JUST A LITTLE
GARNISH FOR THE PLATE.
SO, I'M JUST GONNA TAKE
SOME BALSAMIC GLAZE.
Xander says SO, WHAT IS
THIS STUFF?
Tim says IT'S A REDUCTION OF
BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE.
Xander says IT'S LIKE A
SALAD DRESSING.
Tim says YEAH, BUT WHEN IT'S REDUCED
IT GETS REALLY SWEET,
THE SUGARS COME OUT.
Xander says CAN I DIP MY SALMON
IN THAT FRESH FLAVOUR?
Tim says YOU SURE CAN.
Xander says GREAT.
He sniffs the dish and says MM, SMELLS SO
GOOD, RIGHT MARCUS?
SALMON, FOR THE FIRST TIME
BROUGHT TO YOU BY BEES.
THANK YOU BEES.
An animated bee pops up and says BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ, BUZZ.
An animated dog in a suit pops up.
The announcer says HEY WINSTON, LET'S FIND
OUT MORE ABOUT HONEY!
Winston points at a cat in a chef’s uniform.
The announcer says NOT THAT HONEY, WINSTON,
YOU KNOW, BUZZ, BUZZ,
THE HONEY FROM BEES!
HONEY IS NATURALLY
HIGH IN CARBOHYDRATES,
WHICH HELP KEEP YOU ACTIVE
THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY,
BUT IS ALSO HIGH IN SUGAR,
SO A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY.
HONEY ALSO HAS HEALTH BENEFITS,
SUCH AS HELPING OUT YOUR HEART,
AS WELL IT IS A SOOTHER
OF SORE THROATS, YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU CATCH A COLD AND YOU
GET THAT OH SO SCRATCHY THROAT.
SO GIVE HONEY A TRY, IT'S
NATURE'S ULTIMATE TREAT!
Winston and the cat say YEA!
The animation ends.
Paul says SO, NOW WE'LL PUT THE
CHICKEN ON THE GRILL.
Aynalem says OKAY.
GRILLED CHICKEN ON SALAD,
THIS IS GONNA BE SO GOOD.
Paul says I'M GOING TO ADD JUST A
DASH OF HAWAIIAN SPICE.
SO, WE GET THIS
IMPORTED FROM HAWAII.
Aynalem says WHAT'S IN
HAWAIIAN SPICE?
Paul says IT IS A SECRET.
OUR SUPPLIER WILL NOT
TELL US THE INGREDIENTS
THAT ARE IN THERE.
Aynalem says A SECRET INGREDIENT,
THAT'S AWESOME.
CAN I JUST
THROW A DASH?
Paul says OF COURSE, YOU CAN NEVER
HAVE TOO MUCH FLAVOUR.
EXCELLENT.
WELL, LET'S
PLATE THE SALAD.
Aynalem says OKAY.
Paul says WE WANT IT TO LOOK FANCY,
SO WE HAVE A BANANA LEAF.
PUT THAT SALAD IN THE BOWL
AS MUCH AS YOU WANT TO EAT.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO
CHOP THE CHICKEN?
Aynalem says YES, I WOULD.
IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
Paul says SCOOP THAT ON
TOP OF THE SALAD.
Aynalem says OU, WHAT'S THAT?
Paul says CASHEWS.
Aynalem says CASHEWS?
NOW, WE'RE ADDING
NUTS TO THIS SALAD.
Paul says AND THE LAST TOUCH,
WONTON STRIPS.
Aynalem says CRISPY WONTONS.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE THIS
IS GOING, BUT I LIKE IT.
Paul says TIME TO EAT.
Aynalem says OKAY, LET'S GO.
Different kids appear inside an animated plate.
A blond girl says WHEN IT COMES TO SALAD,
I LIKE CAESAR SALAD.
THE CROUTONS
ARE THE BEST.
A blond girl in a black T-shirt says I LOVE GREEK SALAD.
YOU CAN PUT TOMATOES, CUCUMBERS
AND OLIVES, BUT NO LETTUCE.
(music plays)
Xander says WE ARE IN
NIAGARA FALLS, ONTARIO,
TO COOK SOME FOOD AND NOW...
IT'S TIME TO EAT.
I CAN'T WAIT TO TASTE
HOW THE FRESH HONEY MIXES
WITH THE SALMON.
MM, IT'S LIKE THE
OUTSIDE OF IT'S HARDER,
BUT THE INSIDE IS NICE
AND SOFT STILL LIKE FISH.
Tim says YEAH, IT'S A VERY
FLAKY FISH, TOO.
Xander says MM-HMM.
MMM, MMM.
Tim says SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Xander says I WOULD SO ORDER THIS.
THIS IS SO GOOD.
AND THERE'S JUST ENOUGH
SWEET AND JUST ENOUGH SALT.
IT'S LIKE A
CAKE BUT BETTER.
Xander gives Tim a thumb up.
Tim says YOU LIKE IT?
Xander says THESE BEES REALLY KNOW
WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
AND YOU, TOO, DO.
Tim says THANKS XANDER.
(music plays)
Aynalem says ARE YOU READY
TO EAT THIS?
Paul says I SURE AM.
Aynalem says DON'T MIND
MY MESSINESS.
Paul says IT'S QUITE OKAY.
Aynalem says THIS LETTUCE IS SO FRESH, IT
REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE.
Paul says WHAT DO YOU
THINK OF THE NUTS
AND THE MANDARIN
ORANGES IN THE SALAD?
Aynalem says WOW, IT REALLY MAKES
THE SALAD WAY BETTER.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU CREATED
THIS DRESSING YOURSELF.
Paul says IT ALL CAME TO ME ONE NIGHT
AND I JUST HAD TO EXPERIMENT
THE FOLLOWING MORNING.
Aynalem says HOW DO YOU SAY THANK
YOU IN HAWAIIAN, PAUL?
Paul says MAHALO.
Aynalem says MAHALO FOR THE SALAD AND FOR
THIS LETTUCE, IT WAS SO FUN.
Paul says YOU'RE WELCOME
BACK ANYTIME.
Aynalem says YES, I WILL COME BACK.
(music plays)
Aynalem and Xander meet by the falls.
Aynalem says HEY XANDER, YOU WOULDN'T
BELIEVE ALL THE GREAT KINDS
OF LETTUCE HERE
IN NIAGARA FALLS.
Xander says YEAH, AND THERE'S SO MANY BEES,
TOO, THEY MAKE SUCH GREAT HONEY.
I PUT IT ON FISH.
FISH!
Aynalem says FISH!
Xander says YEAH.
Aynalem says WELL, I GUESS THAT'S WHY
PEOPLE COME HERE ALL THE TIME.
They both say THE LETTUCE
AND THE HONEY!
THE LETTUCE
AND THE HONEY!
WOO!
Aynalem says HEY LOOK, THERE'S
THE WATERFALL, TOO.
They look at the camera and make an "Okay" hand gesture.
As the gag reel rolls, end credits roll.
Aynalem eats a huge hamburger and says MM, THIS IS GOOD.
(LAUGHS)
Xander and Aynalem do a little dance by the falls and laugh.
Aynalem IT'S SO GOOD.
Xander sneezes and says SORRY.
