Vintage Chef Video: Mad Slicing Skills!

By Savory Tv

Ok, we admit it, while waiting for our amazing video camera to become a reality, after reviewing thousands of chef videos, we are becoming quite the chef video critics. And, while learning how to hone skills by watching cooking videos can be fun inside itself, there is something to be said for amusement value while watching. Which is, by the way, why we love watching Average Betty videos!

Again, we digress! Tonight we’ve stumbled upon Archive.org, which is an amazing library of both new and public domain vintage videos. So, we thought, hey, why not have a vintage chef videos collection? Just to mix it up once in a while?

This video is hilarious, it’s a vintage unnamed chef infomercial of a crazy WC Fields type wannabe with some mad slicing skills, shilling for a 12 piece cutlery set. A must see!!
