Thank you, and same! Have a great holiday season and happy new year!

Idk, it’s too factual and teachy than theoretical to me. The whole video felt off, like someone new wrote the script.

Merry Christmas :)

@@boom34z55 to me its like basically solving myths or mysteries from games that havent been solved.

happy holidays

Yep

Wow a just some guy without a mustache comment without 100 likes

You're more susceptible to manipulation by marketing, or anything for that matter, when you're poor.

@Betty 💞 hi Betty

XD

Yeah it’s interesting Coke made Fanta because the German Coke Company couldn’t get syrup from America to make Coke, you know, because of the nazis. So they made Fanta instead and it caught on enough in Germany that after the war it was distributed internationally.

sprite is goooood

By lemon flavored, they just mean it's carbonated sugar water. There's absolutely no taste of lemon or lime. Not that Sprite doesn't taste really good, just that the lemon flavor that they advertise isn't there.

@@toade1583 yes it very much is lol?

@@toade1583 It absolutely tastes lemon. As someone who personally enjoys something a bit more tart I still have to admit that fact.

I agree it would be cool.

I'm still waiting for a story I knew, about an European country that bought a whole region of Asia (I think an island) just for a spice, and bought it at a price of less than 100 dollars, I'm not sure, I saw it in a food documentary, but wow, it was amazing.

P o

The fourth section of the wheel!! :)

or theorys like flat earth

Same over here in Germany

ukposts.info/have/v-deo/rolzenmupGN5uX0.html

Im rare

Same here

Cola Santa Claus is capitalism . . Tim Allen forced to work is Comunism

Isnt a theory a answer based off guesses that try to be as accurate as possible tho??????

Me neither, but my Irish-American family does it every year.

I have just because my grandma had heard of it (I believe while she was in Germany during my grandpa’s time serving in the US Army) and so she always did it as a fun thing for my siblings, cousins, and I whenever we came over on Christmas Eve. Then she found out that it wasn’t German but kept doing it cause it’s fun

Same here lol

Echt nicht? Machen wir jedes Jahr.

My family hid it in the tree

That’s messed up

wait, it's all different?

yeah. Santa is neither nick nor father christmas. He's the fusion of both. Kinda like josuke from part 8.

not to mention that father christmas might be based on the older pre-christian god of wodin who was depicted almost identically looking and celebrated at the same time

@@leeanderson8773 Santa is actually based off of yule, in yule he looks the same just with a blue suit

@@alertsydcat6884 If I'm not mistaken is it not the same thing? Yule is just a common word from all the old germanic peoples who celebrated a christmas type thing some time around december? I know the old anglo-saxon god of wodin is basically the same as the nordic god odin who they all celebrated in december

Snegurochka, that name sounds familliar. I once heard a fairy tale about a couple who made a girl out of snow, and she came to life, and her name was Snegurochka. Is it the same character?

@@lunabeekhuizen8858 Yes, you are correct. In the story of Snegurochka, she was made from snow and is forever young and beautiful. A old man and woman made her from the snow and added two blue beads for her eyes, made two dimples in her cheeks and used a piece of red ribbon for her mouth. But when she came to life she was amazing to look at.

@@iridiumscribe4915 It's a beautiful tale, one of my favorites. Pretty cool that it's actually a part of Christmas there in Russia.

@@iridiumscribe4915 And, according to some versions, she fell in love and melted.

I love the line Mega Holiday lol So Euro/Russian MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄!!

Guess we gotta leave him a cupcake this year instead of cookies

I think he did that last year?

I believe the general explanation for how Santa can deliver presents around the world in such a short timeframe and eat all those snacks is: magic.

Yep

@@randomstuff-qu7sh honestly, I don’t think that would make a difference to MatPat

He already answered that on Food Theory. Short answer: No

It's only December 9th though.

isnt december christmas??

@@lilaroblox7306 *22nd*

The real St. Nicholas could hold his own. During the Council of Nicea, he punched the heretic Arius for claiming that Jesus wasn't God.

As fas as I know the whole "he comes by and leaves gifts if you leave out food" has origins in norse mythology. Odin rode Sleipner around the world and to help Sleipner to recover children put out hay in a boot for Sleipner to eat. And as a thanks Odin would leave gifts for the children.

It is common for Santa (or people dressed as him) to ask "Are there any nice children here?" when he enters a home here in Sweden, which borders Finland and has a long history with it, so I assume those traditions are related. We also have the yule goat but it's not as popular anymore. Very interesting!

Sound like krampus

im one of that kids

And I mean, stockings are just big socks, and socks are pretty darn close too shoes

@@billnye8760 And normally you fill them with small things and mostly chocolate sooo-

Sinterklaas guyz

Yup, loved me some chocolate guilders as a little kid

My family also does it! It’s cool to see others who do it.

What happens if someone misses one? Do you find it 6 months later? 😄

How is it a tradition when you just picked it up😂?

@@begreater226 I guess it’ll become a tradition, I’m gonna do this for years

YESSSS. ALSO PROFESSOR MCNASTY'S FUNERAL EPISODE BROUGHT ME TO TEARS. RIP FOREVER AND EVER YOU FURRY BLUE ANGEL

Wait, when does he reference Puppet History? I was only listening so I didn't see.

So, there's lots of games of "hide the pickle", among your family members, is there? When I was a kid, I had a freind who's uncle always wanted to play "hide the pickle" with the kiddies. But I'm pretty sure that uncle is in prison, now...

@@baconsarny-geddon8298 Ayo 🤨

I feel as though you are attempting to enact a food based assassination, also my guess as for most aerodynamic, something semisolid like mashed potatoes or jello, solid enough to grab and throw but liquid enough to change shape to improve aerodynamics. Or possibly grapes or other sphere shaped fruits.

me too

I don't imagine the elves have an economy anyways, if they can make all those toys themselves. They probably just get room and board and spend their days working on crafts for fun.

Most people see Santa as a jolly, likeable character. Why else would coca cola use his image to advertise?

Average zoomer

I very faintly remember my brother and I watching TV with our parents and Santa walking through the front door wearing our stockings on his feet. That was awesome.

Imagine being sheltered from Santa Claus

Fellow German here, i support this comment. It's only a thing in the US.

@@PhlegmaticAbsentee that's weird

Also German and I agree never, ever, heared of that one. Maybe something out of the east with Spreewälder Gurken? But still, no idea how that could be something German ...

I agree. Never heard of that.

@@mrcookie5233 German with East Germans on the mother's side. No Christmas pickles here either.

I hear it's common for German families

STONE my family has that tradition too also what is with these people with the links?

@@PokeGreninja39 the people with links are bots

What country are you from?

@Darkquill Maroon allegedly yes!

Giving ‘em the best gift of all, a good holiday BASH

Aye, St. Nicholas Is truly an amazing man

"The Church" didn't teach that, because there was no one church. But most churches did believe in that idea. Some didn't, like that of Arius.

@@speedwagon1824 "The church" here just colloquially means orthodox teaching at that time.

cause Coca Cola makes Sprite, so needs that background info

And Santa Sherlock, lmao

This title is misleading Why Must Matpat clickbait me He didn’t bring up sprite until the last 2 minutes of the video

@@ultra64dx77 He still talk about it so it's not clickbait. Plus coca cola make sprite so you need background information for why all this happened

@@dieptrieu6564 I made the comment before watching the whole video I might need to edit it

Easy. Nuts. Highest energy density food. The froyo flavour doesn't really matter

@@nathanielburbery4890 I never knew that nuts were so energy dense, thats pretty cool, well i think flavors might matter because i think different flavors have different calories.

I was just about to say that! Really expected it to be in the video. Also fellow Dutch guy over here🇳🇱

Its not just in the Netherlands either. Its in Belgium (where i live) and maybe other country's too, though im not actually sure if its celebrated anywhere else.

Pretty sure it's just Netherlands and Belgium. The tradition is very old at this point so maybe Belgium just continued doing it after they became independent from the Kingdom of the Netherlands

I as a Dutch guy was so confused that he didn’t mention Sinterklaas

Actually he criticized the government, not the military

Low military spending, rather. Practically the opposite.

That's what I tell every child I know Santa used to be real but he's not what you thought

Most of his fanbase is kids.

@@supergamemaster2279 not kids that still believe in Santa.

Well he’s not really the dutch version of Santa because we already have Santa

I know nothing about LOTR, but that's the one that can fill up an entire hobbit with one bite, right?

@@blokvader8283 No, it can fill up a non-hobbit with one bite. A hobbit can eat 3 in a sitting and still be up for elevensies

Also explains his obsession with cookies

@ME Dude, I believe in God. I'm simply pointing out that Krampus, in the stories, is canonically a demon that is kept in chains by Saint Nicholas and used to punish wicked children. Feel free to look it up if you don't believe me.

He’s not only having milk, he’s got other drinks people put out

That would be fun to watch

Folks should be leaving him some cash to cover his medical expenses from all the goodies/treats left for him. (Chortle) Also Gute Idea for a future theory 🥛🍪

That would be awesome

This was clearly a rushed mess of a video with minimal research or just a way to push misinformation on the origins of santa which is very unlikely.

@@jimlord Yep. In that area would be what Is now known as The Byzantine empire or as they called it back then, east Rome.

@@jimlord Ok, I was more talking about the marketing and advertising part of the video. Coca-Cola is famous because of how they marketed it. I could talk for hours about it but I won’t. Honestly it’s an easy mistake to make considering it’s already a pretty highly known idea about Saint Nicholas. Plus, let’s be honest he’s running how many channels. 4 I think? Give the guy a break.
