Fake fast food meat?

Fake fast food meat?

This week’s One Good Question actually comes from some comments on Mike’s Instagram.

Does a certain fast food restaurant use meat that’s not really meat? And is the occasional fast food meat not that big a deal?

1
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:14.919
Can we flame some people? I'll
probably do it without names. This is

2
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:20.000
the roast, dude, we should
do a roast. You think you can

3
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:23.239
hang? Oh my god, no, no, with each other? I

4
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:26.359
think I could. I think I'm
made for roast. I think I meant

5
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:31.440
roasting like people on the discord.
Have you seen have you seen those roasts?

6
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:33.840
Maybe if you make me cry on
the podcast, I'll get a lot

7
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:37.280
of the probably would. There's some
good roast, Like some of them are

8
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:41.399
really bad because they're always like C
tier comedians or whatever. But sometimes I'll

9
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:44.600
have a hitter on there. And
then sometimes they probably have ghost writers,

10
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:48.240
but like, uh oh yeah they
Shack and Snoop Dogg. They have some

11
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:51.880
lines. Man, they're funny.
They're really funny. And maybe they're funny

12
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:54.600
too, but yeah, they probably
have writers. But either way, some

13
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.880
of their ship's really good. Yeah, yeah, excuse me. They absolutely

14
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:00.960
have writers that like the roast test
writers. Oh yeah, it's like it.

15
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:04.079
And then depending upon who you are
celebrity wise, you may have your

16
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:08.120
own writers as well. Yeah.
Twitch did one with them or like,

17
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:12.000
not Twitch in particular, but some
Twitch streamers did them against each other.

18
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:15.879
Was pretty good. I think they
went and got writers and they like took

19
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.480
it really serious, which is funny, and then they just started roasting each

20
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:22.239
other. It's good, we could
do it. No, I can't handle

21
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:26.480
that. I'm pretty emotionally soft too. So I made a post a couple

22
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:32.640
of weeks ago. I did a
tier list on the best options of fast

23
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:34.200
food when you're dieting or you're on
the road. Yeah, oh no.

24
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.079
Took a took a clip of that
sea best do it on YouTube, doing

25
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.760
on my Instagram, and people are
saying, like I was given the worst

26
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:45.319
advice ever, but like it should
just be known now. I think,

27
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:49.000
well, I think nothing's like set
in stone right, like even the top

28
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:56.120
nutritionists. And this goes for doctors, psychologists, pediatricians, whatever. Right,

29
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:59.640
they don't all agree all right.
That's called like white coat bias when

30
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:01.159
you're just saying, like that guy's
a doctor, he knows what he's talking

31
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:06.920
about. Well he might, but
he might not. His research now that

32
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:08.680
says creating doesn't do anything right.
So it's like who is right then,

33
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:10.840
right? Does it or does it
not? And that's gonna be away for

34
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:14.680
a while. There's gonna be two
camps that until more evidence comes out and

35
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:17.000
maybe it sways to seventy thirty,
but there's there's always a split and maybe

36
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:21.560
it's ninety ten, right, maybe
it's maybe it's ninety five five. But

37
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:27.520
there's always gonna be other smart,
intellectual, trained professionals that don't have the

38
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:30.319
same opinion as an equal, right, That's how the game goes. So

39
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:37.159
a big one in nutrition and Internet, but even in general is like seed

40
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.159
oils. Yeah, right, and
so I posted I just said, like,

41
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:44.120
Yo, Chick fil A's delicious,
they're chicken nuggets. Macronutrients are pretty

42
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:46.080
good. I think even in the
long form video, I said, these

43
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:50.759
probably don't have the micronutrients that we
need, right, we probably shouldn't have

44
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:54.680
thirty chicken nuggets every single day.
I literally ate a pound of mixed veggies

45
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:59.439
yesterday, Like I literally fucking did
you know what I mean? But the

46
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:01.159
point is like, and it's toilets. Toilet was cringing the whole time.

47
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:05.759
It's done. Yeah, it's done
for uh So like, yeah, what's

48
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:12.240
right? So the other thing that's
one big point that that all high level,

49
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.800
very smart people don't agree. Second
point is that at this level of

50
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:20.919
the Internet, where the internet's not
new, right, this bitch been around

51
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:24.280
thirty forty years. It's been very
common for twenty years, very fucking common.

52
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:30.840
Everyone's got the Internet now that taking
things without context is not gonna not

53
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.680
gonna go bode a good way.
Right, So some people got in my

54
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:38.159
comments and they weren't happy that I
was promoting Chick fil A because they use

55
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:43.159
seed oils. Yeah, you should
go eat pizza instead, right, And

56
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:46.080
and it's the same thing that happened, not as much anymore, but a

57
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:51.599
decade ago um when I would drink
energy drinks your pre workout and all the

58
00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.560
people would flame me. You,
yeah, it's in there. Meanwhile,

59
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:58.840
those people are out on the weekend
having ten beers in a line of cocaine.

60
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:01.800
Where I'm in bed at nine o'clock
every night eating a pound of veggies

61
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:04.800
fart in my ass off for health, you know, eating too many veggies

62
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:09.599
is bad for you, probably probably, Yeah, seriously, Yeah, too

63
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.080
much of anything, but a nice
pound is good. It's like they're doing

64
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.719
that while they're you know, enjoying
burgers and fries and fried chicken literal or

65
00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:18.000
whatever. Whatever. Yeah, Like, if you there's no one out there

66
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:23.319
professional or not PhD or not,
that's eating perfectly. There's just it's literally

67
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:27.639
impossible. You're gonna get your chicken
from somewhere you don't actually know, and

68
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:30.439
it probably has some shit in a
weasel. Yeah, it could be a

69
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:32.839
fucking rat. It could have mercury
in it. We're talking about fast food,

70
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.199
for God's sake, well even regular
food. I'm thinking though, like,

71
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:39.399
unless you grow that fucking shit yourself, you don't really know. Yeah,

72
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.360
the same thing. You go to
these professionals and they'll say, like

73
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:45.879
organic, and then another justice qualified
professionals say, no, organic, it's

74
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:49.079
just the same. And then another
justice exact professional will rip on frozen veggies,

75
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:51.800
and someone of the same caliber or
more intelligent will say, no,

76
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:56.439
frozen veggies are great, right,
Like we wash frozen so they have the

77
00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:59.199
same, so frozen and whatever.
Yeah, as far as I that's my

78
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:01.360
personal pain, and from the smart
folks that I tend to agree with,

79
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:03.800
I think frozen veggies are great.
A lot of people talk shit on them,

80
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.279
but that's a whole another argument for
another day. There's nothing wrong with

81
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:09.879
you know what I mean though,
so like, but there's just as many

82
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:13.800
nutritionists and PhDs that say frozen veggies
are trash. You got to eat non

83
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:18.040
organic, non GMO this in that
My point is that if you kind of

84
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:20.959
the eighty twenty rule with life,
right, or the moderation rule with life,

85
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:24.120
if you're doing pretty good with most
things, you're doing pretty good.

86
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.800
This all buckles down to the real
question of the day, and I think

87
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:32.800
Avy's the only person that has the
answer. What yeah, bump bump bum.

88
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.839
I don't know if is this doxing? Do you know doxing is?

89
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:42.360
Doxing is when you like leak personal
information. Okay, so I'm gonna dox

90
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:44.720
you and Jim could at it out. But your family is in the food

91
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:46.560
bizz. Oh yeah, so that's
why you're in this. That's why this

92
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:50.439
is the answer for you. Okay, is McDonald's real meat? Oh?

93
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:54.720
What where is that for me?
Because you're in the food biss when you're

94
00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:57.439
not in the food business. That
has nothing to do with me. But

95
00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:00.240
um, I don't know. They
keep they say that it wasn't before,

96
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.720
now that it is or whatever?
Right, Like you've seen what's the original

97
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:08.399
pink Goo movie? Uh? Yeah, that turns out to fish food Inc?

98
00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:11.040
No, was it food Inc?
Or was it the Fat Boy one?

99
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:14.759
I don't supersize me, supersize me. I don't think it was in

100
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.279
supersize me. I thought that was
the pink goo. I don't know food

101
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:19.399
Inc. Was good, right,
Yeah, I watched I think I watched

102
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:23.800
both of those in high school.
What's the question, though, exactly is

103
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:27.279
McDonald's rubbiah. Of course, it's
real media. It's just that they've they've

104
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:31.079
changed the quality recently, not better
or worse. Better, Yeah, because

105
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:39.920
like they're losing market share on on
on flavor to really not not big competitors,

106
00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:46.680
but smaller competitors fast casual person their
quality is getting better because of either.

107
00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:51.040
Yeah, that's like a that's a
comment I use often when I describe

108
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:56.959
fast casual or fast food. I
uh where I'm saying I like it.

109
00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:00.240
I just say it tastes like meat. Well, because like chicken nugets and

110
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:03.519
McDonald's don't taste like meat. I
love them. I love them. They

111
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:06.480
don't, right, they don't taste
like meat. Where you grab like a

112
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.600
burger from In and Out, you
can taste of beef. You grab a

113
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:14.839
chicken from Chick fil A taste like
beef, or taste like chicken. You

114
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:18.680
grab a Chipotle taste like meat.
However, I will say sometimes you just

115
00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:25.199
haven't hankering for non meat taste meat. No, that sounds weird. I

116
00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:28.959
love me a big mac. I
love a big there's a time in place

117
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:30.639
people talk about like, oh,
you like talk about it's not even real

118
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:35.199
fast or real Mexican everyone loves just
sometimes you or Panda express. Okay,

119
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:38.480
I'll use that because I'm Chinese,
right, Yeah, that's good. It's

120
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:41.680
not a real Chinese food or like
I'm since I'm Chinese, I should say

121
00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:44.279
that it's not real and I should
hate it. But like sometimes you just

122
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:47.680
want non traditional whatever. Yeah,
it's like if it's good, it tastes

123
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:50.720
good. If you want a Chinese
food, you gotta go to China.

124
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:56.519
Yeah. Yeah. However, if
you want really good Chinese food, you

125
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:58.879
kind of have to have it here. You gotta go to San Francisco because

126
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:01.600
they because they the quality of the
ingredients, it's different, you know,

127
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:07.279
and and everything is sort of regionally
adjusted by what's available. I The other

128
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.759
big topic on McDonald's is going mini
viral. Is the ingredients list on our

129
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:20.240
fries versus the European fries. Yeah
that McDonald's, uh yeah, in America,

130
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.480
the chips in the UK the chips
chips, kid, isn't that uh?

131
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:31.839
In like the eighties, I think
the eighties they stopped using beef talo

132
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:37.320
and that's what made the fries so
amazing. Yeah, Like there they have

133
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:39.440
three or four ingredients and here supposed
we have like eighteen nineteen, now they

134
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:43.919
have. Now they use um canola
oil, and canola oil just doesn't cook

135
00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:48.720
things the same way. And it's
also like it's terrible for the internal environment.

136
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:52.080
It's probably just cheap, right,
Yeah, it just it just puts

137
00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:56.200
a bunch of terrible cancer causing shit
into the air to healthier is healthier?

138
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:01.840
Right? Probably? Talo talo is
probably more nutritious. It sounds terrible,

139
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:05.039
but but it is like super flavor. That's where you get the soft inside

140
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:09.879
crunching outside. Yeah, and so
you'll get like a duck duck. So

141
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:15.639
I think, yeah, I think
the reason that there may be more I

142
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.480
don't know if this is true,
but if there are more chemicals in hours

143
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.159
has to overcome that. Yeah,
Yeah, to try to make better tasting

144
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:26.039
fries just had better tasting. Was
the last time you had McDonald's fries?

145
00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:30.840
I don't know. I did go
to McDonald's sometimes in the last few weeks

146
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:33.360
and it's not something I usually do, but I didn't get fries. I

147
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.799
would probably say once a year,
I'll probably you know, a little late

148
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.279
night twenty Chicken Nuggie mcflurry. Dan. You know, I got a roommate

149
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:43.240
named Dan, and sometimes we end
up in his truck and end up in

150
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:48.159
a driver. Why don't you swing
by pick me up flurries? Low key

151
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:50.720
thing. I'm about to make these
Ninja mcflurries. Yeah. Well, I

152
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:54.919
mean since I moved down here,
I haven't had fast food almost crazy.

153
00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:00.720
Yeah, seriously, the only thing
we have downtown is Starbucks. And yeah,

154
00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:03.120
I was gonna say, let's to
top it off, what's your favorite

155
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.360
we'll go fast casual is involved as
well, favorite fast casual fast food like

156
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:09.879
binger, Like if you're just fucking
going all out, dude, and then

157
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:13.639
what's your order? I don't know, I haven't been in so long now,

158
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.320
but you pulled the counter to Panda. Yeah, I haven't been those

159
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:20.120
in a minute. What's screaming at
you? Or like now, dude?

160
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:24.360
Like I think Mendocino Farms, or
a more common one is like a Jackson.

161
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.000
You're gonna get a fucking salad no, I know, but I'm healthy

162
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.080
now or whatever because of McDonald's fries. I was gonna say, it doesn't

163
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:35.039
taste as good as they remember.
Yeah, I remember Burger King fries absolutely

164
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.639
ripping, and they're they're kind of
mediocre. Yeah, I remember. I

165
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:46.600
remember, excuse me, way back
when Carl's Junior fries were formed potatoes instead

166
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.840
of actual yellow skin on them.
Yeah. I actually low key love Carl

167
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:52.360
Junior. A double Western bacon cheese. Yeah, I know. If I'm

168
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:56.159
gonna eat a burger out, it's
usually a Carl Well yeah, double Western

169
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:00.759
bacon chee ye. So so there
is kind of an answer to your question,

170
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:05.200
and that's the AP actually looked into
this. They said that, um,

171
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.600
the rumor is that McDonald's cheeseburger patties
are made from pink slime. Yeah,

172
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:15.919
which is a form of beef that
contains a chemical called ammonium hydroxide.

173
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.159
And a piece assessment says that McDonald's
stopped using the byproduct known in the industry

174
00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:28.080
as fine or lean finally takes your
beef in twenty eleven. They stopped stopped.

175
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.039
Interesting, well, the rumor followed
them to talk the chicken uggies.

176
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:35.840
I thought was Pinku, and I
get it, like they're such a big

177
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.200
business they need the preservatives and shit, I don't. I don't blame nobody.

178
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:41.360
Where are you going? You're going
to Mendocino Farms and get what at

179
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:45.679
least the stake sandwich or something.
I mean, I don't haven't. I

180
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.879
haven't really indulged. I go to
a restaurant if I do want to indulge,

181
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.399
because there are so many good ones. Say you want to indulge right

182
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:56.639
now, I've been cramp just talking
about this morning. I do love sodium

183
00:11:56.679 --> 00:12:01.360
big. No one cares. The
burrito wait heavier in the morning, and

184
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:05.039
I'll feel like ship. I like
a baked Chipotle burrito, large chips,

185
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:11.679
large Nachi cheese that used to be
like my little like reef eat mule,

186
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:15.240
dude, I haven't had every time
I had Chipole, It's almost like,

187
00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.200
okay, it's still fast food,
but it is Chipole. So yeah.

188
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.240
There. But if I do want
to indulge, like I haven't had a

189
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:24.240
Chipole burrito in so long, we
gotta get you dairy Queen. They've never

190
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.639
had dry Queen. What I've never
had it. I've seen the ads on

191
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.399
like TV, and is it you
could do the dipped cone. The calories

192
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:35.000
are not that bad. It's like
ten fat yeah, yeah, ten fat

193
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:37.840
sixty cars. Donald's tones are good. They used to dip right, I

194
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.039
swear. I don't know. I
don't know where they did they maybe we've

195
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:45.720
done it for a while. I
loved dep cone for some reason. I

196
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:48.840
was just a Mandela effect, you
just remember. Yeah, it's definitely possible.

197
00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:52.679
I was just in Nova, Scotia
and and we had um dipped cones

198
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.559
and they were the worst. From
where dairy Queen. No, it was

199
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.720
from a company that that's kind of
their thing, is dipped cones, and

200
00:13:01.799 --> 00:13:05.559
so they have a lot of different
like flavor stuff like that. You're just

201
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:09.039
doing too much thick. Oh,
way too thick. Yeah, I feel

202
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:11.480
like Derrey Queen has it right.
Yeah, no, it needs looks good.

203
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.240
It's pretty thin. Yeah, you
could bite it or lig it,

204
00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:18.799
right, it's good. This is
like the first bite because it's so thick

205
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:24.759
it cracks. Yeah, that is
a texture issue. It is a texture

206
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:28.240
issue. I think my favorite fast
food or fast casual, and I don't

207
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:30.679
think this is just West Coast,
but it might be Jim you may know

208
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.559
is food wreckers. I don't know
where else is a food rucker had food

209
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:41.279
Wreckers I've been. Oh no,
it's definitely not it's definitely not uh side

210
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:45.159
Route. It's definitely not local.
Me and my mom just watched Idiocracy because

211
00:13:45.159 --> 00:13:48.039
she'd never seen it. But everyone's
saying that's where the world's going. So

212
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.960
Mom's like, we should watch it. So we watched it. You should

213
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:52.960
watch it, you'll laugh. I
don't have no. It's like Amazon Prime.

214
00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:58.320
It's it's the same guy that did
Office Space and she's probably never seen

215
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.279
it. Office Space is good.
Yeah, office Space you should watch too.

216
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:05.279
But basically it's like a future telling
comedy. So it's about the world

217
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:11.360
in twenty five. Oh and it's
Owen Wilson's brother Ian what's his name?

218
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:18.120
And Wilson Luke Luke Wilson. Um. But there's food Ruckers there and they

219
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.840
call it butt fuckers. I love
it. Yeah. Where's there? Wherever

220
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:24.879
they are? Yeah, I don't
know where that place? Probably New York.

221
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:31.120
So food Ruckers is like a fast, casual Chipotle style burger spot.

222
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:35.000
Oh, we used to have one
here, No, bro, there's one

223
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:37.799
by Sunrise Mall. Used to go
all the time. It doesn't exist anymore.

224
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:39.399
The only one in California right now
is in Conquered, which which I

225
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:41.840
just went to. Oh did you
I used to go to that one after

226
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:48.519
uh uh after after uh not just
the last August uh me and Kyle stopped

227
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:52.080
on the way back from the cal
State Champs because he had never had it

228
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:56.519
either. Oh okay, wait,
so it's like a subway, but burger

229
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:01.720
version. It's so much more.
Is there is actually rip? They have

230
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:03.600
like elk I mean like as in
the process that you build. No,

231
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.840
it's better than that. So it's
more like you order your basic right.

232
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:11.240
You go to the and they got
like Ostrich Elk, regular burgers, cheeseburgers

233
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.840
work. Okay, you should just
started with there. They provide like different

234
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:16.679
types of tons of different meats.
You get that. You gotta get the

235
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:18.159
fries because the fries bang, the
milkshake bangs. Then you get it.

236
00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:24.879
And it's more like a Korean barbecue
or Brazilian barbecue where all the condiments insides

237
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:30.919
are are buffet style, So you
dress your own burger with as much tomato

238
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:33.600
as less tomatoes you want, as
many sauces as a little onion. You

239
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:35.399
go out there and you dish it
up and just like the quality taste so

240
00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:39.399
good. Elk is obviously super lean, so I love that. M dude,

241
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.080
we could They used to have one
a Fairfield that was the closest one

242
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:46.559
after sunrise, and that might still
be open um. According to the website,

243
00:15:46.600 --> 00:15:50.200
only the one and conquered. I
wonder why they're good. I don't

244
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:54.679
know the states that that flood Ruckers
just in Arizona, California, just the

245
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.759
one. Two there's two in Arizona, there are five in Florida. There's

246
00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:02.639
two in Georgia, two in the
Louisiana, two in Massachusetts, which seems

247
00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:06.759
like an outlier, two in Michigan, one in Mississippi. Went in Missouri,

248
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:12.120
two in Montana, two in Nevada. Yeah, probably probably want burger.

249
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:15.559
Nope, dude, food wreckers and
you can do it's super healthy to

250
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:21.399
New Jersey, for New Mexico,
for Pennsylvania, one Puerto Rico. That's

251
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:25.600
now the other outlines we get in
and out or like smash like six guys

252
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.600
Burgers and brew we could do six
in South Carolina, went in Tennessee,

253
00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:33.399
and an absolute shit town in Texas, and a few in Virginia and Panama

254
00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:38.720

the thing? Regina Canada. Is that

257
00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:53.679

00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:59.799
It's a city in Canada. Anyways, spread wreckers, Burgers and brew.

00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:11.319
so fun from that. I've been
cutting like I don't even know. I

263
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.279
would say, like, well,
um, Jack's Urban Eats here, which

264
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:18.960
is a very local, very local
change. That's good, um, because

Yeah. They put cheddar cheese on it.
