The plot development from ‘alex needs a girlfriend’ to ‘Alex has a girlfriend’ all the way to ‘Alex is getting married and is making his own wedding cake’ is honestly the perfect storyline to go along with eat the menu Edit: to everyone bringing the drama up, this is about lewberger Alex btw 😂
I disagree with people that dislike Keith using his sauces in the show. Even though he is promoting it, but you can see that he actually likes it and it would be weirder if he made the sauce and never used/mentioned it ever again like some
FIY we don't care, I repeat WE DO NOT CARE how long these videos are. These are comfort videos for me. I actually make time in my day for these. Keith eating the menu is wort my time. Don't interrupt a master at his work
one thing I dislike about taste test videos is when they cram 47 items into 7 min of vide (*cough cough, buzzfeed). It feels rushed and jarring and I end up not retaining anything they said. Ask me 7 min later what they liked and i wont know. I like the longer format of ETM because it feels more genuine and relaxed. I use ETM as background noise and it's kind of like a comfort show at this point. *especially* with places like Applebee's that have a mile-long menu, I wouldnt enjoy the series at all if they were cramming it into 10 min.
My best friend would go to applebees for his birthday every year and his dad would buy us a shit ton of apps. His dad passed away this year, unexpectedly. This is such a welcome surprise. Thank you, guys, for always making my day.
Truthfully I don’t think you’ll ever understand how much you’ve helped with my ED and making me comfortable to eat. Cause it’s like I’m eating with you when it’s hard for me to eat.
For his safety and mental health, if Keith does decide to take on Cheesecake Factory for ETM at some point, he should split it into 2 parts. Part 1 is the main menu, part 2 for dessert menu
If he rented a camper van or RV and a site nearby, he could technically do it in a long weekend and they could probably combine it with tons of other shoots
Tbh, as a picky eater, these types of videos are really helpful in a way? Cause I want to branch out and try new things but I never know what would be good and just getting to see the menu and have someone give their take on the food is extremely helpful to someone who wants to branch out into different things at fast food places. Or even to try at home! I love all the try guys videos, but these just got a special kinda thing going to them for me lol. (Also, Keith’s comment about the cheese curds and Wisconsin gas stations? Absolutely true. They’re everywhere.)
YES! same! I really stick to the same two or three things but it's nice to know what to expect if I decide to get something different, and this is such an entertaining way to get that insight!
One of the items Keith liked at Panda Express is my new favorite from there. I like the recommendations, even though I don't always agree with the stuff he doesn't like. Also, yes, a lot of gas stations in Wisconsin sell fresh cheese curds, especially near the border.
You would love good mythical morning they taste all kinds of things and Link is also a picky eater. They even just came out with a website that has the list of everything they've eaten and how they liked it.
Keith progressively getting more and more crazy is like watching that friend in college you knew who pulled too many all nighters officially starting to lose it. You see the train heading off the rails, but don't know what to do to stop it. Also there really needs to be a term for whatever he goes through because "meat sweats" does not encompass whatever weird shit starts happening as he eats more. It's like the meats sweats, a sugar high, dehydration, sleep depravation, and post Thanksgiving meal exhaustion all rolled into one.
The location upgrade from the box truck in a parking lot to what seems like a literal castle is amazing. Every time I think the try guys can’t go up any further, they prove me wrong.
honestly as a none american I like to watch these a lot - especially when im eating myself - gives me a feeling of comfort and not eating alone // Thanks keith!

Keith, I need you to eat everything at the cracker barrel. I need a true southern opinion on the "southern comfort" food at everyone's favorite truck stop restaurant.
No, Cracker Barrel has a reputation for being the white supremacists’ restaurant. That video might attract the wrong kind of people and we don’t need to give them entertainment.
Legitimately, if Lactaid come around with the long overdue sponsorship, Keith should take on the Cheesecake Factory for an ETM. I’d also love to see a California Pizza Kitchen edition. As an Aussie, I fell hard for their raspberry lemonade and their Mac and cheese - it was so dang good! We don’t have the right cheese down here to try to replicate it properly.
I don't know if y'all have velveeta in Australia, but i made a mac and cheese with velveeta, heavy whipping cream, and a little bit of butter (I can't remember the ratios, but I remember 30ml butter lol) and then some salt and pepper to taste and it was a decent copy-cat recipe
Also Keith- they do actually grill the chicken in the kitchen (and steaks and all too); however, the “steamed vegetables” are just microwaved in a plastic bag aaaand a handful of other things are microwaved too lmao
@@shybird2688 as a worker there, is there straight up something you'd never get from ANY Applebee's? One thing you WOULD? Haven't been in ages. Worked in food service in a big fast food chain myself 😅 So I get it

Sometimes I think that my early childhood in the Midwest didn't affect me that much, but then I remember that I still think of Applebee's as "fancy" food.
I'm sure I'm not the first to suggest this, but Keith should eat all of Cheesecake Factory. They're commonly known for having an unnecessarily insane large menu.
Honestly, as someone who when to the states only twice when I was I kid, eat the menu is FASCINATING to me. American food chains look terrible. Are you ok guys?
I can only really eat if someone else is eating too so I watch a lot of this types of videos but I usually finish my lunch just before he gets food drunk so it’s always a strange experience eating dinner and finishing off the video
@@redeye1016 if dumb and ignorant is applied to some peoples and some places and not others wouldn't it be racist by definition Also im pretty sure oriental as a term is inherently kinda racist by virtue of bundling together all people cultures and places based on a vague othering definition
@@DimT670 I don’t understand your first paragraph. Yeah, I think it depends if the intent. Racist by definition is prejudice or a antagonistic against a particular race / minority. Pretty sure this was just a bunch of dumb and ignorant people who have probably never left the US and gone “let’s add sesame oil and call it ‘Oriental’”. More stupidity than anything else.
After the 30 minute mark... It's visibly apparent Keith's body is moving all his energy to metabolize all the food he's consuming. By the 45 minute he is fully lethargic probably because he's eating 38 pounds of Applebee's at this point.
I love how in every eat the menu they play a christmas song. This one has the nutcracker. All of the others play Good King Wenceslas. Who is editing is trolling us?
Carrots in a sandwich? Yes! Many Vietnamese bahn mi sandwiches definitely have julienned carrots in them, usually pickled. Delicious addition. Essential in my opinion.
I'm watching at 3pm, but I also haven't slept in almost 36 hours, so I'll let you know Keith, I have not stopped laughing the whole video. My face hurts, my sides hurt. Everything hurts and I might be dying. Thank you. Maybe this is what I needed to finally get some sleep.
@@abigaila7851 sorry, yes. I got called into work until 10pm, but I got 4 hours of sleep last night. Hopefully I'll get some more tonight? But I've been working all day and have to get back to it at 5am tomorrow :)
When I was about 5 years old, i went to my best friend's house for a sleepover, and her mother had made deviled eggs which i was OBSESSED with. Her mother told me I could have as many as I wanted because she assumed I'd eat like 3 and be done if i wanted a lot of them. They were for some work party she had the next day. In the middle of the night, like after the national anthem played on the TV and it went to static, I went into the kitchen and ate all 4 dozen deviled eggs and an entire block of cheese, then went to bed. Her mother was VERY concerned the next day 🤣
My friend went to a buffet breakfast with her family. It was her son’s first buffet experience. He was (I think) 8 years old at the time. He took the ENTIRE platter of bacon back to their table. He said he left a few slices on the buffet for others. 😂
@@alexisb534 thats great 🤣 it may have been some kind of easter party in my case, I dont remember all the details perfectly other than eating every last deviled egg and having some SERIOUS egg farts afterwards lol
came back to this video for the comfort content but as soon as Alex came into the picture and Keith said "newly engaged" i went to check the date on the video and thought "ohhhh nooooooo 😬"
Me: stressed sad and distracted cuz I have a million things to do and no motivation. *opens UA-cam* 1 hour long try guys video. Me: "THANK YOU KEITH" now I can watch listen while I pack and clean.
Thank you for writing this I said "one more video before bed" not realizing this is an hour long... Only 5 minutes in rn and deffo saving for tomorrow 😅
Becky: “is it because we were so traumatized by the other 3, we thought that one was so good?” Keith: “it’s possible” - insert pun opportunity of “it’s PASTAble”
9:32 😂 “The video isn’t about how efficient it is, it’s about HOW MUCH FUN KEITH IS HAVING! I’m REVVED UP!” *Alex flinches* “I’ve never been so loud! I’m having a great time! WOOOOOOO!!! What do you think?!” Alex: “I’m scared!” 😂
I always love when Alex joins.... but what made this appearance even better was Keith saying he felt like he was at a sleepover and they were going to watch Are You Afraid of the Dark! One of the best Canadian teen shows ever!!!
If Alex ever stops doing the bringing cookies to the all you can eat, eating the menu time I will be devastated. Also, Keith's imitation of the are you afraid of the dark theme song was really impressive.
29:00 Applebees employee here. That chicken is actually one of the few items that was never microwaved. It started as a raw chicken breast that was cooked on the grill in the restaurant giving it grill marks.
@@johnshumate8112 Interesting. So they they do take their time to defrost the meat. I was curious because it is a long process if you don't take short cuts like using hot water. Hot water turns it from a 6 hour process to a 30 minute process.
I've tried the quesadilla burger before, it wasn't great. However, my mom recreated them one time, and they were awesome! So my overall impression is that the concept is great, but their execution was not.
Can't stop thinking about that one time a manager at Applebee's wrote in a company email how he's happy that the rising cost of living means the company can exploit workers during a pandemic and pay them less because they have no other choice but to work more hours so they can pay the bills. :) Thanks Keith for eating all their food for me so I will never have to go there myself.
So glad people haven't forgotten about this! I have never gone to Applebees and knew I never would after that leaked email. Im glad keith can write this off as a business expense and everyone can become aware of how ~*~ shitty ~*~ of a company it is lol
I love how Keith is complaining about the brands never calling then proceeds to later say the fry container looks like a flesh light 😂 gee I wonder why
I think there are a lot of legal concerns about kids on youtube (I remember the kids react channel mentioning it), so although it'd be cute I don't think it will happen.
There's nothing wrong with a kid eating a bite of 3-4 things. They're not eating multiple full meals. It's no different than going out to dinner with their parents and eating a meal
I love this series; I love putting it on in the background while I browse the internet, study, do chores around the house..prob watched every video multiple times
I think Keith should start trying some Michelin star restaurants next. I love watching his descent into madness with all the chains but I think our boy needs a change lol
Watching him figure out how to eat super fancy meals and determine what’s it’s supposed to be. Like not telling him what it is when putting it in front of him.
I honestly admire Keith for being so brave and adventurous with food. Not many people would try this many variety of foods and he’s done quite a bit of eat the menus/food tastings! ☺️
I love how Keith says the garlic Parmesan boneless wings don't taste like a wing flavor but like a well seasoned chicken tender but boneless wings are essentially just chicken tenders
Boneless wings are made with dark meat like wings, and seasoned and cooked like wings. They're much closer to wings than to tenders. Unless they're white meat boneless wings, in which case they're just chicken flavored lies
My favorite thing about this series is watching Keith just lose all joy from his eyes and question his existence as he looks into the camera and consumes all the food
When Keith and Jared said, “The condiments make the burger!” I thought they said “The economists make the burger!” And while I was 100% in, I also knew I had no idea what was happening.
I just love the journey we've been on with Alex! From trying to find him a girlfriend to him bringing his rough draft wedding cake... it's just been so fun and sweet to watch! Congrats to all three of you guys!
The plot development from ‘alex needs a girlfriend’ to ‘Alex has a girlfriend’ all the way to ‘Alex is getting married and is making his own wedding cake’ is honestly the perfect storyline to go along with eat the menu
Edit: to everyone bringing the drama up, this is about lewberger Alex btw 😂
I swear, it happened so suddenly. Our little Alex growed up!
We need a super cut of that bit if Alex is okay with the idea
Petition for Alex's wife to visit an Eat the Menu in the future :')

Agree 100% He said that the sauces sponsor these episodes. If that’s true, then it’s completely fair to include them.
Yea if I made a show about eating food and then made a sauce to go with said food, I'd use it too!
Preach! 🗣
Right. My man has a product to promote! They should be applauding that rather than complaining.
It’s his show. Obviously those people have never tried to make a living by creating. Geez.

I was thinking pretty much the exact same thing. 🤣 We have really come a long way.
@@JacobGrippenMusic I think just because it’s hard to believe Keith has been doing this long enough for someone to go from strangers to engaged
I was about to comment something similar. Just single Alex to almost married, all seem here on eat the menu
@@maeganraelyn8640 makes sense, I could see that.
"You might like it, if you've never had food before."
Deeply relatable. We've all been there.
For his safety and mental health, if Keith does decide to take on Cheesecake Factory for ETM at some point, he should split it into 2 parts. Part 1 is the main menu, part 2 for dessert menu
I would say 3 parts 1. Appetizers, small plates, soups & salad 2. Entrees 3. Desserts
Just a whole season dedicated to the cheesecake factory

Applebees isn’t fancy food? That’s as fancy as it gets around here.
Affect you? Are you ok?
I'm sure I'm not the first to suggest this, but Keith should eat all of Cheesecake Factory. They're commonly known for having an unnecessarily insane large menu.
he said it would be the finale of the series because he would die after that
That would have to be a multiparter for sure
He would actually die 😂
There or bjs’s
And an unnecessarily large amount of fats, carbs, sodium and calories. It's a two for one special!
Honestly, as someone who when to the states only twice when I was I kid, eat the menu is FASCINATING to me. American food chains look terrible. Are you ok guys?
Hahaha no. Thanks for asking!
Not even a little bit
We are fine, we are like bright stars burning bright and eating whatever we want before we die off in a blaze of diseased glory.
We are NOT ok 😩
are we ever?
This is the classiest Eat the Menu set that’s been used so far.
it’s applebees.
I don't know, that steak place was pretty chic.
Yes, agreed. The SET sure is!
Classy? Lmao. It’s like campy haunted mansion burlesque
This is what they hoped the Olive Garden set would be...except it was in a uhaul
I’ve been binge watching these videos, and I’ve realized after a certain point, Keith gets food drunk. He’s drunk as hell off of that much food. 😂😂
I can only really eat if someone else is eating too so I watch a lot of this types of videos but I usually finish my lunch just before he gets food drunk so it’s always a strange experience eating dinner and finishing off the video
@@prince_p0ss yeah I love eating along with Keith when I have a meal, but he is always still going by the time I finish eating! Lol
That’s kinda my favorite part lmao
I wanna see Wes come in and eat the kids menu with Keith! I think it would be so much fun.
that is such a cute idea!!!! Wes is at a great age too, 4 year olds are generally pretty unfiltered and say some awesome stuff!!!
@@jennrocchi6385 new sub channel called 'Try Kids', coming soon
@@rdee2254 Wes, Poppy, N June are the ogs lol
Um yes
Genius
I haven’t checked out The Try Guys in a while and I’m pleasantly surprised that their videos are quite long. Keep up the great work, guys!
The quality is consistent too!

You should watch all of their Without a Recipe videos and all of Keith Eats The Menu videos.
@@alphaenemyplus8376 Their 4 vs. 1 series is a lot of fun too.
It is so so weird watching it now and hearing Keith say Alex had just got engaged
Exactly what I was thinking
Thank you to Keith for calling out the racist, non-specific Asian use of "Oriental" in menu items. Welcome to the 21st century, restaurants!
But, like, who cares? Are you Asian? Exactly.
I wouldn’t say it’s racist? Just dumb and very ignorant certainly. Can’t really believe there places still using that term.
@@redeye1016 Sooo would it be Archaic?
@@redeye1016 if dumb and ignorant is applied to some peoples and some places and not others wouldn't it be racist by definition
Also im pretty sure oriental as a term is inherently kinda racist by virtue of bundling together all people cultures and places based on a vague othering definition
@@DimT670 I don’t understand your first paragraph.
Yeah, I think it depends if the intent. Racist by definition is prejudice or a antagonistic against a particular race / minority. Pretty sure this was just a bunch of dumb and ignorant people who have probably never left the US and gone “let’s add sesame oil and call it ‘Oriental’”. More stupidity than anything else.
After the 30 minute mark... It's visibly apparent Keith's body is moving all his energy to metabolize all the food he's consuming. By the 45 minute he is fully lethargic probably because he's eating 38 pounds of Applebee's at this point.
*_takes drag of cigarette_*
First time watching Eat the Menu?
I love how in every eat the menu they play a christmas song. This one has the nutcracker. All of the others play Good King Wenceslas. Who is editing is trolling us?
I’ve been waiting for this comment!!! Lol I want to know!
“Most recently engaged member of the try team”-not anymore lol
Just when I think I can't adore Jared any more, he makes another appearance. Such a giggly, happy boy. I just love him.
Carrots in a sandwich? Yes! Many Vietnamese bahn mi sandwiches definitely have julienned carrots in them, usually pickled. Delicious addition. Essential in my opinion.
Thought this too when he said that lol
Yes!!
I'm watching at 3pm, but I also haven't slept in almost 36 hours, so I'll let you know Keith, I have not stopped laughing the whole video. My face hurts, my sides hurt. Everything hurts and I might be dying. Thank you. Maybe this is what I needed to finally get some sleep.
It's almost 7pm and I hope you've fallen asleep!
Please tell me you've slept
@@abigaila7851 sorry, yes. I got called into work until 10pm, but I got 4 hours of sleep last night. Hopefully I'll get some more tonight? But I've been working all day and have to get back to it at 5am tomorrow :)
Best of luck! Elizabeth and I are rooting for you!
Notice the bracelet Alexandria is wearing? Looks verrrrry much like the one Ned picked out for her in the bridesmaids video...
👀 Yikes
good eye
It is the same one
Wait what
I’m only 10 min into the video and KEITH IS GOING CRAZY. Can’t wait until the end 😅
I think the queso drinking in the beginning was foreshadowing for wild times ahead.
Do i eat at any of the restaurants Keith eats the menu?
NO
Do i watch every episode to completion to support this rare art form?
YES
When I was about 5 years old, i went to my best friend's house for a sleepover, and her mother had made deviled eggs which i was OBSESSED with. Her mother told me I could have as many as I wanted because she assumed I'd eat like 3 and be done if i wanted a lot of them. They were for some work party she had the next day. In the middle of the night, like after the national anthem played on the TV and it went to static, I went into the kitchen and ate all 4 dozen deviled eggs and an entire block of cheese, then went to bed. Her mother was VERY concerned the next day 🤣
My friend went to a buffet breakfast with her family. It was her son’s first buffet experience. He was (I think) 8 years old at the time. He took the ENTIRE platter of bacon back to their table. He said he left a few slices on the buffet for others. 😂
Sure.
Ive done something pretty similar before, but with deviled eggs for an Easter party the next day 🤣 I ate like 25
@@alexisb534 thats great 🤣 it may have been some kind of easter party in my case, I dont remember all the details perfectly other than eating every last deviled egg and having some SERIOUS egg farts afterwards lol
came back to this video for the comfort content but as soon as Alex came into the picture and Keith said "newly engaged" i went to check the date on the video and thought "ohhhh nooooooo 😬"
Ryan + Keith is my favorite pairing. The positive & negative attitudes just do it for me.
My favorite part of eat the menu-Keith at some point saying “it’s so wEt” in some form. he says “wEt” the same every time and i love it.
Sooooo we're just not gonna talk about how adorable huey & his wife looked?? 😭💕
They looked stunning 😍
They look 100/10
Right?! I was like "well DANG, Jessica!" (Huey is always adorable but I've never seen her before. Stunning)
Me: stressed sad and distracted cuz I have a million things to do and no motivation. *opens UA-cam* 1 hour long try guys video. Me: "THANK YOU KEITH" now I can watch listen while I pack and clean.
i didn’t even realize this was a whole one hour video until 40 minutes in lol
Thank you for writing this I said "one more video before bed" not realizing this is an hour long... Only 5 minutes in rn and deffo saving for tomorrow 😅
Becky: “is it because we were so traumatized by the other 3, we thought that one was so good?”
Keith: “it’s possible” - insert pun opportunity of “it’s PASTAble”
Keith's gonna scroll through these comments and see this comment and be like sh$t ! I missed a pun ! 🤣
Keith: "My favorite set of buns..."
Me: Yay, Becky!!
Keith: "...Jared Popkin"
Me: Oh... 🤣
LOL
Props to Keith for his immense talent of being able to write entire impromptu songs on the spot, comedic ones no less!
9:32 😂 “The video isn’t about how efficient it is, it’s about HOW MUCH FUN KEITH IS HAVING! I’m REVVED UP!”
*Alex flinches*
“I’ve never been so loud! I’m having a great time! WOOOOOOO!!! What do you think?!”
Alex: “I’m scared!” 😂
I vote for a fry sauce by Keith! A great addition to the other sauces!
keith’s physical/character comedy is honestly amazing. I was totally sold on the hand ‘puppet’
My favorite part! Had me hard core chuckling lol
I always love when Alex joins.... but what made this appearance even better was Keith saying he felt like he was at a sleepover and they were going to watch Are You Afraid of the Dark! One of the best Canadian teen shows ever!!!
I’ve worked at Applebees for 11 years and I sent this to every coworker. This video was hysterical
we had a watch party after close lol
If Alex ever stops doing the bringing cookies to the all you can eat, eating the menu time I will be devastated.
Also, Keith's imitation of the are you afraid of the dark theme song was really impressive.
29:00
Applebees employee here. That chicken is actually one of the few items that was never microwaved. It started as a raw chicken breast that was cooked on the grill in the restaurant giving it grill marks.
Do you guys defrost it naturally by leaving it in the fridge overnight, or do you guys take a shortcut like running it under hot water?
@@mattbenz99
It defrosts over the course of a day running under cold water
@@mattbenz99
I don’t think there are “fridges” it’s either a freezer or room temp
@@johnshumate8112
Interesting. So they they do take their time to defrost the meat. I was curious because it is a long process if you don't take short cuts like using hot water. Hot water turns it from a 6 hour process to a 30 minute process.
@@mattbenz99
No shortcuts for defrosting. Everything is planned ahead of time. We know what to prep the day before, so we start defrosting early.
I've tried the quesadilla burger before, it wasn't great. However, my mom recreated them one time, and they were awesome! So my overall impression is that the concept is great, but their execution was not.
Can't stop thinking about that one time a manager at Applebee's wrote in a company email how he's happy that the rising cost of living means the company can exploit workers during a pandemic and pay them less because they have no other choice but to work more hours so they can pay the bills. :) Thanks Keith for eating all their food for me so I will never have to go there myself.
So glad people haven't forgotten about this! I have never gone to Applebees and knew I never would after that leaked email. Im glad keith can write this off as a business expense and everyone can become aware of how ~*~ shitty ~*~ of a company it is lol
Applebee’s tastes like shit too so you’re not missing much.
@@pearlygirl88 *I knew it*
I love how Keith is complaining about the brands never calling then proceeds to later say the fry container looks like a flesh light 😂 gee I wonder why
I love how he complained about them not calling immediately after accidentally saying the wrong brand's name.
@@MrDkmccurry 😂😂😂 another excellent point
No kidding lol I had to go back and make sure I heard him right. Like, nope he definitely said "this cummy dressing". Ok. Ok. Yep.
now that Keith is a dad, he can put all of those dad jokes to good use!! so sweet!!
This location is as epic as this series and I’m here for it. Keith looks comfortable as well as his guests and that’s what he deserves.
What is the location for this video?
15:04 the irony of Keith accidentally saying Chili's name at the moment he was begging for a sponsorship from Applebee's is a mood
It would be so cute if they brought in Wes, June, and Poppy for the kids menu 🥰
I think there are a lot of legal concerns about kids on youtube (I remember the kids react channel mentioning it), so although it'd be cute I don't think it will happen.
while it would be cute.. it would also be quite unhealthy for them. It is better to not promote (young) children having fast food.
There's nothing wrong with a kid eating a bite of 3-4 things. They're not eating multiple full meals. It's no different than going out to dinner with their parents and eating a meal
Thank you to Becky for giving me the line "peas are a condiment" when my husband complains every time I put them in pasta!
It's always fun to watch Keith move slowly into delirium and madness lol.
“They don’t call me. They don’t ever call me.”
Well Keith, they might if you don’t call them Chili’s 😂😂
I love this series; I love putting it on in the background while I browse the internet, study, do chores around the house..prob watched every video multiple times
what about whilst you gettin rammed from behind?
I do that with the without a recipe series lol
It feels so weird to have Alex on there. When Keith discuss about Alex being engaged, and I'm like "Not anymore".
its SOOO WEIRD they are both just there like...
Makes my stomach sour 😐
someone above said she’s wearing the bracelet that Ned bought for the bridesmaid dress vid 😳😳😳
when he asked what’s going on w her and she said nothing 😭 still more upset with ned being that he’s her boss but like- 👁👄👁 it’s so surreal
The fact that she even said yes when she was already screwing her boss for so long… wow
I think Keith should start trying some Michelin star restaurants next. I love watching his descent into madness with all the chains but I think our boy needs a change lol
Watching him figure out how to eat super fancy meals and determine what’s it’s supposed to be. Like not telling him what it is when putting it in front of him.
I honestly admire Keith for being so
brave and adventurous with food. Not many people would try this many variety of foods and he’s done quite a bit of eat the menus/food tastings! ☺️
I honestly think Keith is one of those people who likes almost every food or will at least eat every food🤣
@@alexisb534 idk how I just saw this comment but that’s so funny!!!!! True true! 🤣
They really just lean into Keith's weirdness with the editing and I love it lol
I love how Keith says the garlic Parmesan boneless wings don't taste like a wing flavor but like a well seasoned chicken tender but boneless wings are essentially just chicken tenders
Boneless wings are made with dark meat like wings, and seasoned and cooked like wings. They're much closer to wings than to tenders. Unless they're white meat boneless wings, in which case they're just chicken flavored lies
@@kaldo_kaldo really? I've only ever gotten white meat when I ordered boneless wings. I've been disappointed many a time by chicken flavored lies lol
I feel like we glazed over Becky adding peas to all the pasta in her house way too quickly
in the winter? with a cream sauce and a fatty meat? 🤤
Peas are amazing with tuna and noodles and with macaroni and cheese. Don't think I'd do them with spaghetti
Peas are good with like a carbonara or a Mac and cheese
Is..... is it a Midwestern thing?
@@pixiestxNyomouf no i’m from pgh we’re pretty damn close but we aren’t the midwest
My favorite thing about this series is watching Keith just lose all joy from his eyes and question his existence as he looks into the camera and consumes all the food
I remember nearly choking to death on an applebee’s mozzarella stick, great memory
Every eat the menu is just Keith’s slow descent into madness and I love it
you love madness?! WOW. h8 humanity much?
Same. I'm just a little concerned, because I can't remember him ever asking us for HELP 😅
"Is the shrimp...cooked?" Followed immediately by Keith's sly, knowing _"it's on the fence, Jake"_ 🤣🤣🤣
39:36 if someone wants to watch that moment
Savory jelly sounds like something Zach made for without a recipe.
Keith looks like a restaurant manager coming over to ask if we're all having a good time
this is so accurate
Will never look at Keith in this video the same way again
When Keith and Jared said, “The condiments make the burger!” I thought they said “The economists make the burger!” And while I was 100% in, I also knew I had no idea what was happening.
Omg YESSSS. Today is gonna be a great day.
Keith I wish your body well after this. Thank you for putting your life on the line for this series.
I love how Keith was calling it Chili's at some points.
I just love the journey we've been on with Alex! From trying to find him a girlfriend to him bringing his rough draft wedding cake... it's just been so fun and sweet to watch! Congrats to all three of you guys!
