I was watching some videos of this and people were saying it takes about 5 minutes for the whole process. From personal experience in doing it manually, the whole process takes about two minutes or less. While granted you could say working at the restaurant has all these fancy equipment to make the process faster, for this there really isn\u2019t much to it. A the same time, this makes me think on how many times we buy appliances to create stuff because we assume it is complicated without it.<\/p>\n<p>To me this demonstrates the importance of actually trying to do things manually so that you clearly evaluate if it is worth your time and money to invest in all these fancy equipment. Like in this case, to me it makes no sense knowing how easy it is to make. Knowledge is power and a good money saver too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw this deal at Amazon for what is apparently a \u201csandwhich maker\u201d that was on sale.
