- What kid likes Diet Coke?
- Okay, I'm happy about this one. Two?!
- Teen, college kid, adult, like, who knows?
♪ (upbeat intro) ♪
- (FBE) There's a viral trend right now on the internet
where people go through the drive-thru and then they order and eat
whatever the person in front of them got.
- Yes, I've seen that.
- Huh. They have no imagination whatsoever.
- (FBE) It's been made popular by a lot of YouTubers,
including Derek Gerard, Ryland Adams,
Miranda Sings, Jeffree Star, and Steph Pappas,
just to name a few. - Right.
I've seen a few of those videos.
- (FBE) Have you ever tried this trend?
- No, I haven't, but I like that it's a wholesome trend.
It's not anything that's a crazy challenge
that's someone's gonna get hurt.
It's like, oh, we're gonna share a meal with a complete stranger, you know,
but we don't really know we're sharing a meal.
- (FBE) We just followed people from four different generations
to the fast food restaurants of their choice.
We ordered you exactly what they ordered.
- Oh! (laughing)
- (FBE) It'll be up to you to guess which generation the person
who ordered this item belongs to. - Okay.
That's interesting.
- (FBE) Do you think that's gonna be easy or hard?
- I don't know. Everybody has different taste buds
but I'm gonna assume elders are gonna watch their cholesterol.
- Teen, college kid, adult, who knows?
- I guess we're here to order.
- (cashier greeting) - Hello, how are you?
- Hi, yes, what did the guy in front of me just order?
- Thank you.
- (cashier) Hello, how are you? - Hi, good, how are you?
- Thank you!
- They are not fazed by this.
- Hi! Um...
- Thank you so much. Have a good day.
- Oh, these smell good!
- This is Taco Bell? Bitttttch.
I [bleep] love Taco Bell.
- (FBE) This is a five layer beef burrito with no sour cream,
a bean and cheese burrito with no onions,
and an unsweet tea.
- Wow, that's a lot of food.
- Okay, it's only two, so I'm thinking
it's probably a little skinny person's.
- See, when I was a kid, I used to be like, "No onions!"
But I don't feel like a kid would order an iced tea.
- I'm kinda leaning towards elder.
Do old people eat burritos? Is that offensive?
- The no sour cream, that almost tells me
it's a young person already.
And this is what kind of tea? - (FBE) Unsweet.
- Unsweet tea?
Wait a minute, that throws me off.
- Sour cream is the best part but okay.
Okay. So it should be called a "four layer burrito," right?
- This feels like a very my metabolism is still going fast meal,
so I'm gonna stay with teen.
- Well, I'm going with a guy who's an adult now
because it's unsweetened tea.
- First, the unsweetened sweet tea, there's no flavor,
and then sour cream, I'm assuming-- I don't know.
Maybe this person just doesn't like sour cream.
- (FBE) So your second meal is two spicy chicken sandwiches,
chili cheese fries, and a chocolate frosty.
- Okay, I'm happy about this one. Two?!
- That's a man meal. (laughing)
Let's see.
Mm-hmm. [Inaudible].
- Look at this! Like... that's not going anywhere.
- This more like a teenage guy, or even a kid,
but a kid, I don't think a kid orders two chicken sandwiches,
so it's gotta be a teenager.
- I feel like a teen won't eat-- maybe they do.
Teens eat a lot. I don't know where it goes.
- This might be a college kid, specifically a boy.
I don't feel like a sensible adult would get this.
- This is definitely something a college kid would get though.
Some chili fries. Not one, but two sandwiches.
Dang, it's kind of throwing me.
I thought the other one was what I think this one is now.
- Crap, this might be the teen.
I don't know! This is hard. (laughing)
- Wait, more Taco Bell?!
- (FBE) So for your third meal, we have a plain bean burrito
with extra sour cream and mild sauce and a Diet Coke.
- Okay, that's a senior. That's a senior.
Diet Coke, that would be me, and a plain burrito
but they like the sour cream. That's a senior.
And it's only one? That's a senior. Hands down.
- This person has taste, let me tell you,
these are my faves right here.
- And just one, okay.
Oh, it's a diet soda? Oh.
- Can I pick elders twice? Or is this just one?
Oh, man, I messed up, huh?
Oh, god. Okay. What kid likes Diet Coke?
- Yeah, and it's safe. It's very safe.
This is a senior.
- There's a smaller portion, so it might be an elder
because elders drink diet soda, too.
- It's because it's a small portion, but then the Diet Coke
gets me, but also the extra sour cream
makes me want to lean towards teens because they have no self control
over how much sour cream they want in their food.
- (FBE) This is two cheeseburgers with only ketchup,
a large French fry and an apple pie.
- How do these people do this?!
- Damn, these people are getting two?
I don't know if I'm just a small eater,
but I guess at McDonald's, you could eat a lot.
- This seems like a very kid meal to me.
And what kid doesn't love McDonald's?
- The cheeseburger looks really skinny.
Like, where's the beef, where's the lettuce and tomato?
None. It's cheese in a burger.
That's it. That's a kid.
- Everybody's taste buds are all over the place.
- This is such a little kid order, too,
so these are all throwing me off.
- And apple pie? Oh, my god. This is overkill.
This is a diabetic's delight.
This is heart attack country, but they have lots of time
before that ever happens.
- Oh, my gosh. This is throwing me.
And I am gonna bite this apple pie. I don't even care.
I still miss the old apple pie. They used to deep fry them.
(groaning) That was bomb. This healthy stuff?
Whatever. It's apple pie.
I'm not eating it for my health!
- I'm only seeing teens because teens have sweet tooths.
But at the same time, an adult could order this.
I'm so conflicted.
- This might be a college kid, too.
Crap. I feel like everyone's a college kid.
- They can afford it. It's cheap. It's fast.
Easy enough.
Nothing too crazy or out of the box.
If you have a few bucks left over from your allowance,
you can go to McDonald's and get something.
- I'm gonna say teens. Oh, my god.
This is a hard challenge.
I did not expect to be thinking this much today.
- (FBE) Okay, so you've tasted all four meals.
You've made some preliminary guesses.
It's time to lock in your final answers.
Which generation ordered which meal? - Okay.
- (FBE) So just as a reminder, you've had four meals.
They came from four different generations.
There was a teen, a college kid, an adult, and an elder.
- Oh, gosh.
- I feel pretty confident that two is a teen because it was
just so-- I can eat whatever the hell I want.
My metabolism is still going and I have all these cravings.
- The second one was Wendy's. Definitely a college kid.
A college kid who has to go to the bathroom later.
- That was a kid.
Uh, this was the senior with the double sour cream.
- Okay, I think I got it.
- (FBE) So meal one, you're correct. It was ordered by an elder.
So Gary, our elder, ordered that.
- Yeah, it's the no sugar thing.
- I ordered a five layer beef burrito with no sour cream
and a bean and cheese burrito with no onions and an iced tea.
The reason why no sour cream, I don't do well with milk product.
- Okay, I guess so. Okay, I get it.
Yeah, I get it. The unsweetened iced tea.
That's a lot to eat.
- I should have known! The sweet tea!
- Really? I was really banking that I got the elder one right.
Gary... (laughing) why are you eating so much food?
- (FBE) Number two, unfortunately, you were incorrect.
That was actually ordered by a teenager.
One of our teens, Carson, got it-- - Carson, are you okay?!
Like, do you need help? Do you go to the doctor's?
Holy!
- So I got myself a spicy chicken sandwich,
another spicy chicken sandwich, because I'm hungry,
and some chili cheese fries, and the classic frosty,
which is a necessity when it comes to Wendy's.
My prediction is they're either guess probably teen because
of the chili cheese fries-- stereotypical, I think, personally.
- Okay, that does feel very Carson-y.
That's Carson.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was definitely a male teen. Right. Yeah.
- That makes sense, I suppose.
College would be, like, the Twitter thing,
like that super popular-- at least it was-- what do I know?
- (FBE) Meal three was ordered by Erinn, an adult.
- Okay.
- I ordered a plain bean burrito with extra sour cream.
You have to have the mild sauce, and then Diet Coke.
I think if anybody of my generation, who maybe were partiers
in their youth, so to speak, would probably be like, yeah,
this is something after a night of drinking
you would definitely hit up Taco Bell and get a bean burrito for sure.
- I really thought that was an elder. That one makes me mad.
- Oh, it was the Diet Coke for sure. Yeah.
- Oh, okay. Well, I was close.
Adults and seniors, they're bumping up against each other.
- (FBE) And meal four was ordered by Eric, a college kid.
- Wow, I was so off. (laughing)
- So I got a baked apple pie, a large French fry
and two cheeseburgers with just ketchup on them,
which is the same thing I've ordered since I was eight.
You know, it feels simple.
I'm super picky, so I generally don't like
a lot of things on my burger. French fries are a classic.
Apple pie is a good palate cleanser dessert.
- Okay, that does feel like also a very Eric meal.
- There you go. Nostalgia.
And I feel like when you're in college,
you might not have that much spending cash,
so McDonald's always in a pinch.
- Oh, yeah.
And he could eat a couple of them. No problem!
- (FBE) So you guessed a total of two generations correctly
out of four. - Okay, that's half.
- The whole McDonald's thing threw me because I remember getting
it all the time as a kid. That was a treat.
But it makes sense that, as you're older,
you're gonna go back to what you like.
- It was the drinks that got me.
The adult would have the Diet Coke.
I'm thinking more like the senior would have done that,
but it was switched.
- The ketchup threw me off a little bit
but, nah, I'm not surprised.
I think it would be a teen because when I was a teenager,
I loved sweet stuff, and now as I'm older,
my taste buds are like, I feel like I'm gonna get cavities.
- It was harder because just so many people had
different kinds of tastes, so-- and then also I know
all the reactors come from so many different walks of life.
You don't know what they're into.
