everyone's talking about Galaxy gas and

all the use of Galaxy gas I've ever seen

online that isn't uh filmed by Galaxy

gas all the use I've ever seen from it

is because people are getting high and

they're using it as a whip it they're

using it as a drug but I couldn't

imagine that this company sbk whatever

the it's called that sells Vapes

and smoking is using is selling Galaxy S

for any other reason aside from just

genuinely delicious and indulgent treats

Galaxy gas well you probably already

know but really the best thing that's

ever happened to your

kitchen yes Galaxy gas is the purest

culinary nitrous in the Galaxy why start

your morning off with that boring cured

strawberries and cream for that perfect

dessert that'll have them wishing they

could cook like

you possibilities with Galaxy gas are

endless guys but you're only using it

for food products right you're only

using it for whipped cream I'm sure a

smoke SL Vape Shop is only using is

expecting its customers to only use

Galaxy gas for you know like their other

products no not not inhaling and smoking

into chain no not that but for food

though yeah this guy from the ad we just

watched I don't know he's just kind of

advertising a product I assume he's not

the king of Galaxy gas I don't know why

all these videos were removed and the

stuff was taken down disappearing off

the face of the internet really doesn't

help your case when you want to be

representative if anything this is the

most I've ever seen Galaxy gas used in

the way it is supposed to be used for I

don't know if it's fear of legal trouble

or fear you know I don't know it's wild

goose chase the blame's got to go

somewhere dude who is this guy I'm not

sure how was he involved I really don't

know a lot of the information in regard

to Galaxy gas has been scrubbed from the

internet the big problem with all of

this is that it is just sold on Amazon

and it is a cooking tool but it is

obviously like between you and me let's

talk manto man it is marketed for vaping

and huffing is how it's marketed in my

opinion and there are some people who

are defending Galaxy gas being like Oh

it's not their fault the advertising

isn't meant dude it's being sold by fing

vape stores what does that imply nothing

it implies nothing it is strictly to be

used for whipped cream that's all that

they want to use it for I promise also

the name Galaxy gas doesn't exactly

appear to me to be sort of marketed

towards the audience of people that's

drinking Nitro infused coffee probably

older people making whipped cream I mean

I what the demographic choice is

interesting the the flavoring choices

are also interesting for creams I mean

this doesn't really make a lot of sense

Galaxy gas has become an incredibly

viral Meme and it literally rots

people's brains it's just flavored whip

it is what it is it's just flavored Whi

itss and it it's scary it's in Roblox

they added Galaxy gas to Roblox as a ugc

item which is really cool I've bought

four of them there's music videos famous

streamers and celebrities all being seen

consuming Galaxy gas and it's like more

memes it's just scary dude it's insanely

harmful for children it's insanely

harmful for anyone to consume especially

children because their brains are

already full of holes and rotten um with

like skibby and all that and I

worry that if this can make its way

all the way to Roblox it's going to be

able to make its way everywhere and dude

it's crazy this meme has actually set us

back for centuries now you have to be

ided to buy whipped cream at some store

certain grocery stores in certain areas

definitely certain areas not not all

grocery stores not in my area but like

some areas though some Dumber areas this

has become so crazy that now on galaxy

gas's website there's a warning when you

go to it saying that this is nitrous

oxide and it is intended for flavoring

not inhalation the warning deters no

one that sign can't stop me because I

can't read I feel like you should remove

your product from sale to be honest

because it's being misused and it will

continue to be misused uh and like kind

of massively profiting off of this stuff

with just that thin line of being oh

guys it's just for it's just for whipped

cream but we also sell it at vape stores

there's an implication there there's an

implication Always Sunny style and it's

really really really weird you were

allowing people to be hurt and killed

because they can just buy this off

Amazon yeah this is like Tide Pods but

even worse and the Galaxy gu stuff the

worst part is there that is a cool

product the whole nitrous thing uh you

know Nitro infused coffee and flavored

and like that is really cool I do like

that but if it weren't being promoe by

smoke and vape shops it would be a lot

more innocuous and a lot more innocent

seeming but it's like so on the nose

that it's it's just clear I mean

I mean I don't know I don't actually

know if it's clear it's clearly used for

food purposes only don't use Galaxy gas

for anything just like the people who

are selling it don't want you to use it

for they don't want you to use it for

anything else I don't know how many

times I have to say that but it's true

don't use it for anything else it will

damage your brain severely and you will

die
