The Impossible’s cheese is molten snot 😭 5 years and gotten through with never throwing cheese on myself, until today ☹️ (i.redd.it)

Also EMT here- don’t pop the blister. Use cool water, not warm.

Thank you 🥰 I have ointment in my bag and bandaids, I’ll be okay. Thankfully a little booboo won’t do me much harm.

Hello EMT

Why cool water over warm? I think I might know why, but I'd love to hear the medical/sciencey part behind it!

And... you don't pop it because the gross liquid inside is actually part of the healing process, right?

I did that but with the Bacon/Sausage wrap. The side split open and the grease landed on my arm. That hurt like a b*tch. I can only imagine how much pain you were in! Make sure you put burn cream on it

It just stung for a few several moments! Crazy how much it plumped you in a short time! Was not expecting it! We got these new matte black ovens. They work at a higher temp compared to the large square grey ones. If we all had problems with especially the impossible’s cheese, this really boils it 😖

I wanted to try it once and it was hot for like 30 minutes. I couldn’t even eat it.

I have an identical scar from the debut of the impossible sandwich :/

I'm sporting two burns from the oven, I'm like a month old.

I burnt myself like that on grilled cheese last week

We had a customer who always ordered double toasted grilled cheese, the grease from that shit was like molten lava.

You aren’t doing food correctly if aren’t burned by the egg bites or grilled cheese
PluralPaul 5 points 2y ago
The fuckin egg white bites are the worst culprit. One of my coworkers has been badly burned by them more than twice now since the new year started
taaylorjean 3 points 2y ago
so we choose to ignore the tomato mottz panini and the spinach feta wrap that always has strings of cheese 🧍‍♂️

The bacon and Gouda dripped the grease and cheese in my hand during a rush. Burn cream is your friend.

It was the cheese from a sausage sandwich that got my arm and blistered. I wasn’t handling it though, it was another barista that really wanted to deep clean the drains as it turns out

Ouch! My worst burn was from the grilled cheese back when they were even more buttered. I highly recommend using aloe vera (if you can acquire, the more natural the better) and later to use Vitamin E oil. Both do wonders!

I did that on a hot cinnamon swirl (UK). The icing goes like lava 🤣 the franchise had to stop heating them for health and safety 🤦🏼‍♀️

Happened to me with the grease from a chicken sausage biscuit, same thing happened to my coworker, too, but from the chocolate on a choc croissant. We both still have the scars.

Someone swung a grilled cheese and grease flew off all across my leg🥲 hurt so much
the-OG-darkshrreder 1 points 2y ago
God damn. That’s worse than the pikes place roast i had today. Had a entire short cup of pikes flow down my hand. Couldn’t put it down or anything either cuz I’d burn someone else. But that batch finished brewing like 2 mins prior
