- Woah, what are these?
- Oh my God, it's going down!
- I don't want you to ruin this for me.
- (PvF) I hope you brought your appetite,
because be prepared to lose it!
(both laugh)
Today, we've got a
Try To Keep Eating While Watching How It's Made!
- Oh no! - (Jaime) Oh.
- Bad! - How the sausage gets made!
Literally. - Ugh.
I don't wanna see things get made, I'll just eat it.
- (Chris) Right?
- Ignorance is bliss.
- Thank you so much, and I'm really blissful.
- Is that bad? - Are you joking?
Do you know how hot dogs and burgers and all that stuff is made?
- Oh!
- Cool.
- (PvF) If you give up at any point,
whether that be stop watching or stop eating,
we've got a punishment that will make you hold on for dear life.
- Mm-hmm, great. - Oh great.
- If we keep eating, do we get a reward?
Is there a prize?
- (PvF) Satisfaction.
- What? - Oh!
- There's no prize for this?
- Yeah, that's kinda rough. That's kinda hardcore.
- I like a Big Mac. - Yeah, me too.
- I'm eating it, I'm eating it.
- I hate Big Macs, and it's McDonald's.
Do you know how bad this is gonna be?
- The Mac Daddy?
- I've actually never had a Big Mac in my life.
(record scratches) - Really?
- Yeah.
- (PvF) First up, we've got a nice and juicy Big Mac from McDonald's.
- Everything with McDonald's grosses me out,
so I don't know if I wanna see this.
(Chris laughs)
- I'm gonna tell you right now.
When I go to McDonald's, the Big Mac is what I get.
- (narrator) Ever wondered how the famous
McDonald's hamburgers are made? - (both) No!
(both laugh) - (narrator) The manufacturing process
of a McDonald's hamburger begins in beef farms.
- Aww, that smells good.
- (narrator) Where thousands of cows are raised.
- I like cows. - Mmm.
- They look cool, oh no, here we go.
- Nom nom nom.
- Mm. - Mmm, yummy.
- Mm-hmm! - Mm-hmm.
- Not the grinder, do not show that meat getting ground up,
I can't do it.
- (narrator) The meat is transformed into ground beef in a massive grinder.
- Mmm. It's so good!
- (narrator) A machine ensures that no bone fragments remain.
- Hmm. - Mmm.
- I'm glad they're taking out the bone fragments.
(Angel gags)
- (narrator) Another machine shapes the meat into hamburgers,
and adds the famous preservatives.
- That right there, that's what kills us.
Those preservatives.
- Ugh!
- (narrator) McDonald's hamburgers are never flipped.
- Woah, that's kinda cool.
- Ugh! - Mmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- (PvF) Congrats, you made it through.
- Mmm!
- Oh, I'm fine. - Yeah.
- Tasted cold, slimy, in my mouth as I was watching that.
- Yo. - Bro, you didn't flinch though!
- I was gagging the whole time.
(Benison laughs) (tape rewinds)
(Angel gags)
Nom nom nom!
- Red, raw meat you're eating right now.
- Mmm, yum. - Eww!
- (PvF) Alright, that was round one,
how are you guys feeling?
- Disgusted. - Good.
- I'm happy right now.
- I think I'm gonna go through this whole thing,
just feeling great.
- Okay. - Chicken and...
- (both) Eggs?
- Oh no, you're not gonna show how they're treated, are you?
(PvF giggles)
Oh! - No!
- You could show me some chickens getting chopped,
I don't give a [censored]! (Benison laughs)
- (PvF) Next up, eggs and drumsticks
from factory farmed chickens.
- Oh no. - Of course it is.
- I'm telling you, they could (clucks),
like, I don't... (Benison laughs)
- I can't watch it. - Really?
- Yeah, I can't. (Jaime gasps)
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- Aww! - They're so cute!
- They're adorable.
- Wait, they're also yellow like this.
- I'm gonna take these off. - Actually, hold on.
- Awful, yeah.
- Little babies!
- They're still fresh out of the shell!
- Wait, they're shoving them in a machine?
- I don't love what's going on here.
They are falling out of chutes.
- Yeah, I mean... (buzzer)
- (clucks) Like... - Mm.
- Oh, aww!
- They taste good as hell.
- Are they sorting out the eggs?
Huh, interesting.
- They separate the eggs.
Oh, no no, look out!
There's still a little guy in there!
- Yeah, bap, bap, bap, bap, bap! (Benison laughs)
Ah, like...
- This is awful. I'm glad I had a big mac.
- Ugh!
- These are seasoned to the T. - Mmm.
- Help.
- (PvF) Jack. (laughs) (buzzer)
- I could not eat that!
- Oh my gosh! - Yeah.
- (PvF) Sorry.
- But I feel like you're not.
- I definitely felt some type of way.
It wasn't enough for me to stop eating.
- It's so weird to see newborn life
just kind of like in the conveyor belts.
- We should probably, I mean, animal stuff, you know?
We should probably treat them a little nicer.
- But I'm part of the problem, right?
'Cause look, I just downed a Big Mac like it was nothing.
- I think you should treat 'em nicer, get 'em fatter, you know?
- Plump 'em up even more? - Fatter chicken, ooh juicy, ooh.
- (PvF) Do you wanna take a guess
as to how many chickens are raised in these farms
and sold for their meat every year?
- Oh God.
- Maybe 200 million.
- I'm gonna go with like 500 million.
- 300 million.
- A million? - A million?
I'm gonna go... - Two million?
- Two! - Two billion?
- Two billion! - Damn!
- That's a lot of chickens.
- (PvF) 60 billion. (laughs) ♪ (tense music) ♪
- Ugh!
- Ugh. (laughs) Now I feel bad.
- Bruh, I myself eat probably one bill.
(chicken clucks) (PvF laughs)
- Ah. - Oh!
Double Bubble!
- (PvF) Next up, we have every kid's favorite, bubblegum.
- I have horrible TMJ, which is why my jaw always goes out.
- (PvF) Mm-hmm. - This doesn't help it.
Let me tell ya, and it's my favorite gum ever.
- We're gonna see like the goo, and the...
- I mean, these are the ones that hurt my jaw a little bit, huh?
- Yeah.
- (narrator) Chewing gum dates back to the ancient Greeks,
who chewed resin from trees.
It all starts with...
- No animals getting hurt. Nobody innocent, just jaws.
- (narrator) Today, it's synthetic, made of plastics and rubbers.
- Rubbers, what?
- Am I chewing on plastic? - That's why you don't swallow.
- I mean, we all know gum is not actual food, right?
- Yeah.
- I've swallowed gum, is that a problem?
(both laugh)
- I used to swallow it though. - Yeah me too, on accident and stuff.
- Oh, yeah. - Or maybe sometimes on purpose.
- Oh yeah. - Yeah, reads right.
- Mm-hmm. - Mmm, take a couple of these.
- It looks like Play-Doh.
- Yeah, we've been chewing for a minute.
- Chewy.
- That's what my poop's gonna look like tomorrow
if I swallow this gum.
- I was concerned for a second,
but then I'm like nah, it's not that bad.
- Like, have you ever seen a tire, and you wanted to bite it?
- (PvF) Yes, I know what you mean. - Yes, so like...
Like mmm! - (PvF) I know.
- It makes it more like I like this. I don't know.
- Mmm! (bell rings)
I love Double Bubble gum.
- I liked it.
- Bro, this makes you like it even more!
- Yes, exactly! That's what I mean!
I'm chewing a tire now, and I'm like yes, dream come true!
- Yeah, I'm not grossed out.
- (PvF) Also fun fact, bubblegum was invented
by Frank Henry Fleer in 1906,
and was originally called Blibber Blubber.
- Blibber Blubber! - Mmm!
- Blibber Blubber. - Blibber Blubber?
- I would've liked that better. - Yeah.
- Mmm, I like that name. - I like bubblegum better.
- That's fun, Blubber.
- (both) Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber,
Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber!
- Ah! - That was pretty good!
- Yeah, we did that!
- (PvF) I do not think you were saying it.
- (both) Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber,
Blibber Blubber, Blibber Blubber! - Oh!
- We did it again! You wanna try to prove us wrong?
- Oh, one more time? No, I'm just kidding. (laughs)
- Is that cheesecake?
- (PvF) Girl you hope, wish it was cheesecake.
- Oh God. - Oh yeah, that's just cheese.
I thought it was cheesecake for a second.
- That's blue cheese, huh?
- Isn't it just mold?
- (PvF) Next up, from the blue cheese family,
we've got some Gorgonzola.
- Blue cheese. - Blue cheese?
Ugh!
- I like Gorgonzola. - Do you?
- Mmm!
- Gordon-zola? - Girl, what the...
- (PvF) Gorgonzola. - Gorgonzola!
- Gorgon, like that doesn't even sound appetizing.
- Gorgon! - (both) Gorgon.
- Zola. - Like Demogorgon.
- Yeah, I was gonna say, isn't that in Stranger Things?
- That smell is just awful. It's so stinky!
- Who cut the cheese? Literally, 'cause it stinks, like...
(Benison laughs)
- It smells like a sock.
- (narrator) The fungus is added to milk.
- It's fungus, see? It's like a gym sock.
- Why is it like this?
- (narrator) In a big cauldron together with enzymes, rennet...
- Gorgonzola. - No!
- This is strong. (both laugh)
- (narrator) Milk becomes curd. - Oh my God.
- Curd, mmm, you love a little curd.
- Gross. (Jaime laughs)
- (narrator) Then, they are salted a couple of times.
- Oh, salt, oh yeah, it is really salty.
- Is it? - Yeah.
- Ugh! (whimpers)
- Ah. - Ugh! (coughs)
- Ugh, gross. (Jaime laughs)
- (narrator) Where they're punctured 100 times.
- Punctured 100 times?
- Wow. - So it can mold.
- I can't believe we eat stuff... - Took you a nice big bite.
- Aged like that constantly, this is crazy.
It's just sitting there, fungus, bro?
- Look, if you opened up your fridge, and you saw that?
You'd be like uh, we need to throw this out.
- Eww.
(buzzer) - Ugh.
That looks gross. - Nope.
It's literally right in front of me, I'm not touching that.
- Look it!
Literally, it's just moldy.
- Mmm.
(Angel coughs)
- It definitely smells way more when you're watching this.
- Who came up with this?
Like why would we let something mold and age,
and then say let's eat it?
- Who came up with the idea, and they're like look,
hear me out here. (laughs) - Mm-hmm.
- It's really stinky though. It's gonna...
When I burp later, ooh.
- Well, I guess somebody was just desperate enough to be like,
ugh, it's moldy but, God, I'm just so hungry,
and I don't have any other food, so I'll just, oh!
- Like, I feel like this cheese is just a prank that's gone on forever.
- Gorgonzola is one of my favorite kinds of cheeses.
- Girl, what the hell? Gorgonzola!?
- It's pungent, dude.
- Why don't they call it like blue bread?
(both laugh)
If you leave bread out, it gets the same looking mold on it.
- It does get stinky when you're watching this.
- No [censored]! - Oy-yoi-yoi!
- (PvF) Language! - No crap, no Gorgonzola!
- Honestly, just knowing where my food is coming from...
I know I should know that, but it's still disgusting,
and I don't wanna know.
- At least I could tell people I've had Gorgonzola.
- Your breath smells like it.
(Benison exhales)
(Benison laughs) (Angel gags)
- This might be tough, just because of what it is.
(laughs)
- No, I'm not! - I love Spam!
- I'm not, Laura, Hunter love this!
Do you know how much Spam has been in my homes?
- What's Spam? - You've never had Spam?
- Pork, it looks good.
- (PvF) Next, we're checking out how canned meat is made,
specifically, Spam.
- I don't want you to ruin this for me.
- I've never touched it.
- Spam, I grew up on this, I could eat this all day.
- It smells good, It smells like fart turkey.
- (narrator) The first step involves careful deboning
and trimming of the pork.
- Yummy. (buzzer)
- Yummy! (laughs)
- Was that dude wearing a reverse hair net on his mouth?
- Ew!
- And then they take out the butt hole.
- Imagine being that worker. - Right?
- I would never wanna touch like, meat again.
(buzzer)
- And it doesn't taste that good.
- Yeah, this isn't my favorite.
- Oh my God, I grabbed a big chunk.
- Look at that! (laughs)
It's gorgeous. - I mean...
- That's disgusting. Oh!
- Oh, you gotta see this! Go back, look at this!
(Angel coughs)
Look at that! It looks like someone pooping!
- Eww, it was like pooping meat.
(Chris laughs)
- Like, I feel like if you like Spam,
that's not gonna ruin it for you,
because that's what you would expect, right?
- Yeah.
- Man, you just... - No!
- Bruh. - No, no!
- This tastes so good!
- (narrator) Each can is then sealed with the utmost precision.
- This seems about right.
- I love how he like jams his hand in there,
as they're saying the utmost precision.
(both laugh)
(Angel coughs) - That's crazy!
- Ugh, I hate spam. - Yay.
- Mm. - That's not bad, that looks great.
- That was crazy.
- Ugh, mm.
- Wait, Spam's not that bad.
- You don't even know what's gonna be coming out your butt.
Your poop gonna be purple.
- My poop's gonna look like that poop earlier, did you see that?
- It didn't look that bad on camera, until it was pooping.
(Chris laughs) Pooping was not it.
- Let me tell you, Laura has tried to slip
this bull [censored] into so many meals
throughout our relationship. (Jaime laughs)
Thinking that, oh, if I don't know it's there...
- (Jaime) Mm-hmm. - Then I would just eat it.
- (Jaime) You'll develop a taste for it.
- Wrong!
Every time, Laura, every time.
- That's a shame! I love Spam.
- Mm-hmm. - I'm not mad at Spam.
I kinda might be a Spam fan.
- Are you part of the Spam fam now? - Yeah, Spam fam.
- Yeah! (Jack laughs)
- I'm not saying it's nasty, but seeing diarrhea
and chewy stuff together just don't mesh.
- (PvF) So there's actually a restaurant named Spam Jam
in the Philippines that exclusively serves Spam.
Several menu items include Spam burgers, Spam spaghetti,
Spam baked macaroni, Spam Caesar salad, and more.
- (sighs) That's my dream.
- McDonald's in Hawaii. - Yep.
- Sells Spam breakfast.
(claps) - (Sharon) Mm-hmm.
- Woah, what are these?
- Oh my God, it's going down!
- Oh, now this, I'm going downtown on.
- (Jaime) (gasps) Ooh!
- Oh, and you've already toasted these?
- You cannot make me not eat this whole tray.
- You could show me a cow getting slaughtered in half
with [censored] on it, I don't give a...
- (PvF) Next up, we've got a go-to campfire snack, the marshmallow.
- Yeah, I don't give a Demogorgonzola, I will, om!
- This is gonna be ground up bone.
- I don't know, I think I'll gel with it.
- (laughs) Oh God.
- (narrator) A beloved treat for campfires and hot cocoa
might lose their appeal
when you learn about the key ingredient used in their production.
- Gelatin? - Om!
- Everyone knows what gelatin is.
- Oh, it's gelatin, okay, yeah. - Which is...
- Bones.
- It's from like... - I don't give a flip.
- Skin, bones. Jell-O, mostly.
- A Demogorgon.
- Does it look a little gross?
Yes it does, but I'm still eating. - Yeah, they dissolve.
- Look how pretty that is.
- That looks pretty. - Yep.
- That looks like snow.
- Why does it look like... - Yeah.
- What is it, when you mail things? The um...
- Oh! - The Styrofoam pellets.
- Styrofoam peanuts!
- (narrator) Mixture of corn starch and powdered sugar
to prevent sticking. - Sure.
- (narrator) The use of gelatin in marshmallows
raises ethical concerns for vegetarians, vegans...
- I'm not either of those. (laughs)
- Oh God.
- Just giant meat.
- Put a little chicken in there, a little cow in there
to give it some... (laughs)
- I'm not gonna lie, there's nothing you're gonna say
that's gonna make me change my mind.
- I think everyone knows that's how gelatin's made.
- Right, mm-hmm. - So not really shocking.
- (PvF) Marshmallow sap used to be used
as a go-to remedy for sore throats and coughs.
- Ooh! - (PvF) And long before that,
the sap was actually seen as a delicacy
reserved for creating candies and honey
for noble people and pharaohs.
- So I'm eating healthy too? What!?
- (PvF) Well, I wouldn't say that. - I would!
- (PvF) They're not made from plants anymore.
- You said plant, I took it. (Benison laughs)
And I'm running!
- (PvF) How are we feeling on this challenge so far?
- I hate it so much. (both laugh)
- (PvF) Doesn't it weird you guys out that you're eating
like ground up animals right now?
- Does it weird me out? Om!
- Ooh, that sounded...
- (PvF) It's such night and day with you, Angel.
(both laughs)
You're either vomiting up a lung,
or you're like eating the plate. (both laugh)
- Yeah, I'm not eating this! - Oh, oh!
I think I know.
- You show me how water's made, I'll still wolf it down.
- Let's go baby, I love me some salmon, too!
- (PvF) And for our last round, a perfectly baked salmon fillet
made from farm-raised salmon.
- Farm-raised?
- (PvF) Headphones on! - Nope!
- It smells really good too, so I'm kinda sad.
- I am not gonna put 'em on.
- (narrator) A company focused on fish farming.
- I can't do this. (gags)
- Bro, they're all just like kinda floating there.
- Why can't I do it?
- That's not a farm! That's a factory.
- Oh, that's like dirty water.
- (Chris) That's a factory raised salmon.
- The dirty water.
- Look how awful this is, it's just like,
they just raise 'em in these big old barrels.
- I love salmon though. Yay.
- (Sylvia) We wanna make sure we're creating an affordable...
- I'm getting close, I can't do it.
I feel like I'm eating their poop right now.
- Okay, it's already dead. Oh well.
- Looking at the water makes it tastes like,
tasting like the sea, the ocean, call me the mermaid, hey!
- (narrator) So filthy... (Jack laughs)
That fish are vaccinated to prevent the spread of disease,
(buzzer) but the salmon are not...
- Uh-huh. (buzzer)
Yeah, it's terrible, isn't it?
- Eww!
- The parasites should, it's really...
- Ugh you... (gags)
What does that mean? - Oh yeah, that's not good.
- What's that, babies?
- Ash, it was all good until that.
That last clip, (laughs)
It was like, I can't hold it on that.
- I love watching food while eating food.
- (PvF) Mm-hmm. - This is very different.
- I feel bad for the fish.
- Ugh, gross, I...
- It looks like dirty water. - Mm-hmm.
- Fungus, disease, and I just ate that.
- (PvF) Angel, you did not pass that round,
because you didn't start eating until about halfway through.
- Oh my gosh!
- That was rough, that was rough. Mm.
- (PvF) Are you weren't even watching the clip!
(Angel burps)
That's literally the rules!
- Over there it was like mermaid this, mermaid that!
(both laugh) - (PvF) Those are the two!
Well, that's it, that is our challenge.
(Sharon sighs) - Yay.
- (PvF) Congratulations, Benison and Chris.
You successful conquered this Try To Keep Eating challenge.
- You can't stop me, baby!
- (PvF) Unfortunately, Angel, Jack, Sharon, and Jaime,
you couldn't fully stomach this challenge.
- Oh. - (PvF) So now, consequences.
- You couldn't keep eating nasty stuff,
so they're gonna make you eat nasty stuff.
- I want marshmallows! - How is that fair?
- (PvF) Not this again! Are you kidding me, I...
- What is wrong with you? (Benison laughs)
- Not the like, actual Bambi.
- (Chris) Is that venison?
- (PvF) Introduced in our Knew It Or Chew It Disney episode,
this clip from Bambi will show you how the sausage really gets made,
or in this case, the venison. Let's take a look.
- What's wrong with you? - Venison?
- What is venison?
- This is what killed me last time!
- Yo! - Now I want that!
- Look at this!
You nasty, man. (Benison laughs)
- (PvF) Jack, you have to eat this while you're watching the clip.
- While I'm watching it?
- Have you ever seen Benison eat venison, huh?
- This is just awful, I don't even...
- I can't, I hate you for this. - I know, I know.
- Eww, I don't like it already.
- Look at the face. Just think of the face.
- You're really starting us off with this scene?
- Eww, why does it feel like that?
Is it good, wait!
(gunshot echoes) ♪ (tense music) ♪
- Yeah.
- That's really good. - I can't do it!
- It's the emotional that she's trying to hit you with.
- That it hits ya, yeah. - Yeah.
- Keep eating. - (PvF) Watch the clip!
- Hold on, it's good, see. - No! (cries)
(Benison laughs)
- I'm eating Bambi, though, I can't think about that.
- Ugh! (coughs) - Mmm, you can taste that meat.
- Ash! (laughs) Ash!
- It's crazy... - I feel like I'm on time out.
(Benison laughs)
- (PvF) You are! You're being punished!
- That's the worst one I've ever had.
- (PvF) It's venison carpaccio. - It's very good.
Carpaccio, I do like carpaccio.
- It's good, but I didn't... (whimpers)
- Right, it's good if you're not watching that,
and it's like this. - Yeah.
- Maybe I'm turning vegan, I don't know, y'all.
- Pfft! - Something's going on in my brain.
- Mom! I'm chewing, like mom, mom!
No mom to go to.
- Good thing I have gum! - Yeah!
- (laughs) Good thing I stole gum!
- Yeah! (laughs) Plastic, plastic, let's go!
- And this like... - Why is this over Bambi like that?
Like you guys had to do... That's some evil stuff.
- That is very evil. - (PvF) Yeah.
- Yeah, but you had to eat her veni-son. (laughs)
That's your punishment, Ash, is that you have to deal with me!
- (PvF) Thank you guys so much for watching this episode
of Try To Keep Eating While Watching How It's Made.
What else do you want to see me torture our reactors with?
Let us know in the comments down below.
And I am so excited to enjoy Bambi's mother right here.
You know, deer is an invasive species in some areas,
so I don't feel bad about this at all.
Mmm!
