The only things keto-friendly on their table were the green beans and the ranch dressing. Even the salad had thousand island dressing and croutons.
It's kind of weird seeing a middle-class trend like Keto filter down to a gibbering slob like Scalfani and how he misinterprets it. He sees it as a cure-all but still isn't willing to put in the work.
 
Jack will be collabing with this guy on a fishing channel. More Jack content on the way!
LMAO the "recipe" is balsamic vinegar, butter and fish sous vide.
You don't fucking drizzle that much vinegar all over your product; that's the sign of an idiot who overloaded their tastebuds with seasoning and learned Balsamic Vinegar is something real-people chefs sometimes use for dishes. All doing what the fuck he did does is just makes everything taste like vinegar, especially given that fish can easily be overwhelmed by seasoning. Then again, this is normal for Jack it seems given his tendency to flood dishes with shit like soy sauce and other fluidic mixes (Worcestershire Sauce for example) that turn things into hell when overpoured.

Just drizzing that much vinegar on it would be bad enough, but what Jack did was even worse - he dumped all that vinegar in the sous vide bag with the fish. Not only does that mean he basically pickled it, it made it look awful and black, and then he just slopped it on a big serving plate. He should've cooked it in a light marinade to complement its delicate natural flavor and color, maybe a little butter and a few herbs, then plated it with the darker sauce for contrast.

This is a good point. You eat with your eyes first and bass is a nice white fish. Some char on it is good, but making it look brown like mud is not. You could also tell they just dumped it out of the sous vide bag onto the plate. They took no effort to arrange the fish on the plate so it looks presentable then had the audacity to use that Michelin Star looking plate as a thumbnail.

Honestly, the only marinate I'd probably use for it is an olive-oil lemon mix with fairly light seasoning given that you really don't use something heavy on fish. I wouldn't even use my go-to of yogurt marinades on fish since I'm personally not sure how it'd affect the taste. But Jack? He learned that balsamic vinegar exists. He learned that it also is used by real people chefs. He's a lazy white trash douchebag with delusions of grandeur, the desire to pretend to be a chef, and moderate brain damage. So he must use it.

Same shit as always.
Jack shows the parking lot which is made of gravel, he seems mad about it.
Jack get's an anemic looking salad with plenty of processed cheese and two fairly large containers of thousand island.
Jack get's fried chicken and green beans that look like something from a can ''so beautiful''. Tammy got fried catfish and onion rings. They also got fried pickles.
The food was so good, worth the upcoming stroke #3.
I love how Jack arbitrarily rates this dump as good because it gives him a lot of lardy food. It really highlights how absolutely piss useless his reviews are, and how those other restaurants can just ignore his reviews whenever he tantrums due to him just having a bad day or whatever rustled his jimmies.

I agree, I tend use coconut/ lime marinades or depending on the fish, mustard myself as well. There was a restaurant I used to go to that had a good miso marinade for their fish. By the way, yogurt marinades are best on salmon or similar fish.

I want to get some snake head one day and see what tastes good with it as it's a fish I hear a lot of good things about.
 
Christ. I've spent the past few days reading this whole thread and I'm actually really surprised it took this long to devolve into the industry equivalent of a-logging: that is, a bunch of foodie home cooks talking shit about another foodie home cook because they're so much better than him and "oh I would have blah blah blah". Honestly, no one cares what you would do. Next people are going to start dick waving their expensive but useless knives around.
 
When was the last time Jack mentioned keto? I think he's officially given up on it and is back on the Fried Sampler Platter diet.

in this video. so almost a month ago. and lol @ that JOTG video from yesterday. his "reviews" are absolutely pointless. every video now is just him and tammy ordering some fried whatever, showing what the food looks like, and then saying if he'll come back or not. notice how the only restaurant he's given a "bad" review for lately has been the japanese one. obviously it was because there was no fried chicken on the menu

There’s no way his body ever was in a state of ketosis. The recommended daily amount of carbs is between 20 and 50 grams. It’s not a whole lot. A single medium-sized carrot can have as much as 10 grams of carbs. Two carrots are you’re above the lowermost carb limit for keto. Of course it depends whether you’re counting all carbs or just net carbs (carbs - fiber). There is conflicting info on the matter. However, even when counting net carbs alone, three carrots puts your body above the bottom limit. Three carrots is not a whole lot for someone like Jack. And that’s not even the biggest issue. Jack eats out a lot, and restaurants tend to be very generous with their sugar. It’s in everything. Brines, marinades, seasonings, vinaigrettes, sauces, gravies, charcuterie cuts, etc. Twenty grams of sugar is nothing. It’s five flat teaspoons.

As far as I know, Jack never showed any symptoms commonly associated with the early days of a keto diet. The so-called keto flu can manifest as fatigue, migraines, dizziness, nausea, lack of mental clarity, short temper, irritability, and others. A body in a state of ketosis can display symptoms like bad breath, insomnia, diarrhea, constipation, etc. Has Jack mentioned any of these?

And let’s not forget that keto doesn’t allow cheat days. Eat too much carbs and you’re out of ketosis. Does anyone really believe Jack never cheated on his diet? Lol.

Jack always has all of those, other than migraines and nausea.

True, he hasn't had them any more.

Still, he has never eaten a meal on his fake keto that was even remotely keto. Every single thing he has eaten on video would have broken keto for days afterward. To Jack, keto just means you can eat grease by the cupful straight out of an industrial size vat of Crisco.
 
don't recall him ever eating a strictly keto meal on video. i know he's made a few CWJ videos where he cooks "keto" recipes but not sure how keto they actually are. here's my favorite where he makes keto tacos and then proceeds to dump half a container of sour cream on each taco

Get out of here Jack
