### Segment 1 (00:00 - 01:00) []

I tried the current TikTok cooking concept du jour which many people are calling lazy dumplings. In no world does scratch cooking the filling for dumplings constitute lazy cooking, but I see the underlying vision. The lazy factor comes from draping the wrappers over the meat right in the pan instead of hand wrapping each one. Mine came out tasting good, but the lack of wrapper adhesion ruins the eating experience. It's slippery and hard to grab without each one falling apart. This lady says, "Guys, I've cracked the code. You just need to put the filling in the wrapper and smoosh it against a plate to get them to stick. " This, like last season's viral cheesecake yogurt hack, is a shareable abstraction that quickly got to a point of what are we even doing here anymore? The top comment on each one of these is always, "Guys, this is not called lazy dumplings. This is called shumai. " And while I do disagree, if I ever ordered shumai and these came out, I would be pissed. It does feel like with each disappointing eater of each viral cooking trend, the big hack slowly reverts back to the original interpretation of the dish. If you're already making a filling from scratch, you might as well stuff it into a proper shumai shape. Just like how if you're already going to impregnate a tub of no-bake filling with Biscoff cookies and a sweet cookie butter drizzle, you might as well arrange a no-bake cheesecake that doesn't have to be munched out of a bucket like horse feed.
