Fried School Lunch Taste Test ft. Harley Morenstein | TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING

Do you know what's so crazy? Of every

thing

you've done, that's the most disgusting

thing

I've ever seen in my life. (music plays) We're hanging out with our friend and certified tie-breaker, Harley Morenstein of Epic Meal Time. - Yeah! - Right here. Guys, thanks. And you have your Super Snack Time Jerky coming out on April 1st. - It is not a joke. - It's not an April Fool's Day joke. - It is not a joke. - It will be released on April 1. It's called Pizza in a Bag. And that makes it seem like a lie because it will arrive on April 1st.

And that's all now. It will be available at Walmart. - Oh! - Pizza in a Bag. Triangular bag. By the way, the triangle bag was a big deal. What is your worldview on

fried

food? Fried food, as you know, is very important and dear to me. As it is in many ways my... my lifeline. It's my livelihood. The question with

fried

food, however, is: can too

much

, even if it's a

good

thing, still be a

good

thing? It's time to... Okay, so we're going to eat a full four-course meal, but it's not a fancy meal. This is a fried

school

lunch

.

Yes,

school

lunch

gets a lot of criticism for being unhealthy. So we thought why not make it even more unhealthy. - Lunch Lady Tess. - You guys, right here. - Slap. - What's on the menu? - Uh oh. - Woman: Okay, my name is Maureen. Oh, Maureen. I'm sorry. - No problem. - That's embarrassing. Your mom left this in the main office. - Is that a wallet? - Then I fixed it. No, it's a note. Enjoy it, little one. - Is this a fried note? - Yes. It's a note from your mom. It's a note... Oh my God, I see it!

There is writing out there. - Do you want a piece of this? - Yes Yes Yes. I want to eat and I want to read it. Slowly! Wait, you're breaking the good parts. We have to tear up the note. This is greasy. Oh! Was I supposed to wait for you? I didn't know you were supposed to eat the note, Harley, but... - Mommy... - Aren't you supposed to? I think you're supposed to read the note. Ah! Oh! What does it say? You know, boo... - I don't think we can read that. - She loves You. - Something loves you. - Mommy loves you. - That's a good first course... - Fried paper? - Fairly good. - It's really not bad.

Take a bite. This is the best article I've ever had and we've had articles about this program at least a dozen times. Here I brought you fried milk. - What's your name, Josh? - Hey, Ran... Roy Randy. -Roy Randy. -Roid Randy? Yes, you know, it's a surname. I have a problem with a stranger coming out and blatantly lying to me and he tells me to eat mystery food. - That's not a lie. - What's your name Roy? The last guy who accused me of lying got in trouble. - Watch this! -We had to fry some chips to make straws like butter cuts, you know?

So yes. This is a carton of chocolate milk. - Yes. - And it's fried. Is the chocolate milk inside fried in any way? - Or is it just... - No, although it absorbs a lot of oils, you know. It's nutritious. It's really distributing the calories. - Is this the straw? - It is safe. - This is the straw that breaks the camel's back. - And it's a potato? Yes it is. It's a potato chip. Can I snort some crispy fried food with this chip straw? - Absolutely. - You can... - We see that in school cafeterias all over the United States.

Oh! Good morning mythical! Hello! Oh! Well. I think there's a hole in my straw. I'm understanding a little bit of... This is great, by the way! There is nothing wrong with this. This is really fun. It's really nice. And a slight oiliness from the oil. - Mm-hmm. - I'm not complaining about that. I don't even drink milk anymore. This is a fried apple because once again your vegetable is very important. - Yes of course. - And then we have a double fried tater tot with a side of ketchup. I know you're wondering how to double fry it. - Good?

First it is fried. - How do you fry it twice? First it is fried and then it is made again. Well. - So I like. - Yes, she's great. - Link: She's great. Should we eat the apple or the tater tots first? Do you know what they say? One fried apple a day, call the doctor immediately. - Yes, okay. - Yes. - Very good, here we go. - Is that what you wanted to do? You're holding it there like you want to hit it. - I'm glad you... You jumped right into that. - Drinking it. Yes, we stumbled upon fried apples as they say these days.

Oh man. Look what... Mine is different from yours. Check it out. Aren't you worried? I had never seen an apple like that in my life. - Why does mine look like this? - Yours is bloody. What's going on? Yours looks so crazy. Did you poison my apple? Of everything you've done, that's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen in my life. That's the most disgusting thing. What's wrong with that apple? It has like a smoke ring, almost like a piece of smoked meat. - Yes. - That's so strange. - I'm going to continue eating it. You're crazy.

Have you ever seen a fried apple at a state fair? Because they fry everything there but I don't know if I've ever seen this. - This sucks. - Because it stinks. - It stinks a lot. - It's really bad. - Why does it stink? - It just stinks and now I hate the lunch lady for even putting this in my mouth. - But... - And before that I liked him a lot. - Tess: Oh! - At least we have double fried... - Hey! Oh! - Double fried tater tots. - This is a redemption. - Well wait.

You have... You have to get the ketchup out. I recommend using your teeth. - Now I guess... - Now there's more reward - for opening it with your teeth. -Well, I guess this-it became toxic when he fried himself. - Oh. And that's a good thing. Did they lick your ketchup packet? Not after what he said. Don't listen to him. He just makes videos on the Internet. That's a good point, Harley. Why have I ever heard it? Well. Of course this is good. Yes, of course it's good. This is easy. This is good. Get it out of here!

We got some fried Lunchables and then we got a beer battered pizza left in the alley. So we put it on a quick crust and then we got some fried pepperonis and... I love how they're separated from... - From the pizza. - So you took out the pepperonis, fried them, and then put them back. - I respect that. - Thank you. - I respect that. - It's the details. It is the love that I show to you, children. Did you know? With fried food I've noticed that you hit a wall out of nowhere. We'll laugh, we'll have fun, and then we'll get hit with this wall and say, "Oh my God!" - I haven't reached it yet. - No no.

Are you just starting out with pizza here? What are you guys doing? Let's do it together. Let's start with the pizza. Let's eat and make sure we have a fried pepperoni on the edge here. - That crunch is satisfying. - Hmm. - Oh! Oh! - This is a creation. - This is real. - No, something about... Literally where the apple didn't work because it was just fruit, this works because it's bread and cheese... and sauce... - Mmm-hmm. Everything works for me. Then we should put apples on pizza. What is this Lunchable thing? Some things you don't want to know.

Yes, let's bite it. Oh, it's a cookie! Is there a cookie in a Lunchable? Yeah, I'm not a Lunchable type. It's like a vanilla cream cookie. Basically, this has made the different compartments of the Lunchable completely... - What is this? - This must be a cookie. Irrelevant. Is it a pepperoni? Oh, this is like salami. This is a cookie. Biscuit, salami and whatever... you have to stack these three and then take a bite. - That's a cheese. Okay, now I'm hitting a wall. Check it out. - I think I just hit the wall. - Yes, I feel very lethargic.

Very dejected. Lunchable doesn't work for me. Ah, I made a mistake. I thought it was the cookie but I used the dessert with the cheese and pepperoni. - That worked? - No, it didn't work. - Stinks. - Oh. This dish is one of my husband's personal favorites. - It's starting to hurt. - ♪ This plate ♪ When you have a blocked pipe, this will fix it. It's fried jelly. And then hip replacement surgery, after that it's also a good snack. Take this. I don't want to... I touched you with my shiny fingers. Fried gelatin? I have definitely hit a fried wall.

Check it out. I don't know how you did that. The gelatin helps a little but not with all the fried part. It's just weird because it's like you have gelatin and at the same time you have dough in your mouth. - Yes. - Yes. They're not together at all. You took two unrelated bites and it turned out that you were jelly and dough. Well, this chocolate milk helps, but overall I think we need to reach a verdict here. Can you have too

much

of a good thing when it comes to fried food? Yes, and we have done it.

Although I don't know. I don't know. - I mean... - For branding purposes, you feel like it's a no. You have to think about it. You have to think about the context. You have to think about the context. For your brand you definitely need to champion this. Fried food is very important. And also, you know, if you don't eat anything all day and you're desperate and hungry... - Yeah. - then it might be pretty good. - It could be pretty good. - If you are desperate. If you are desperate, this was worth it. Alright, Harley, thanks for coming here.
