Like the kind of experiments that I regard as slightly verschwänderisch.
A wine bottle or a bottle of champagne (Spoiler) is blowing up in a microwave still okay, but to "destroy" 200L cream or kilo pork unnecessary I find then again slightly irresponsible. Straight from the ZDF, as a public broadcaster, I would also expect verantwortungsfoll and to act as a "role model" in some way.
But the whole criticism despite .... watching worthwhile in any case!
