EpicMealTime – Youtube Addiction Series
Have you ever come across something on Youtube and felt like, wow, an interesting concept and the videos are definitely hilarious or shocking (like this one) but, you just never understand how long something like this can last? Well, with the EpicMealTime videos on Youtube, I kind of wonder what their plan of attack is.
Background
Basically, EpicMealTime is a show hosted by Harley Morenstein and features a bunch of his friends taking on high-calorie, meat packed meals (constituting mostly of bacon) and tons of alcohol.
The show started with a video of Harley devouring a Wendy’s burger with 6 beef patties and 8 strips of bacon which later became so popular that it went onto become a full fledged show and even won the 2011 Shorty Award in the food category. This week’s latest episode features Hors D’Oeuvres in the standard EpicMealTime fashion.
Thoughts
I’m a big fan of the EpicMealTime series and although the last few minutes of the show can be quite disgusting as the guys go all out and chomp on their high-calorie meals, I think Harley’s enthusiasm and mannerisms are hilarious. My concern is about how many concepts will they exhaust before they start running out. They’ve tackled Pizza, Burgers, Asian, Indian and Mexican Food even Turtle, Eggs and Chocolate. I just wonder whats next?
Watch
Watch the latest episode below and let me know your thoughts. There is some bad language but its all censored. I kind of wanted to get your viewpoint on what you guys think of these videos. Obviously, they are highly popular but their audience is different from my blog so it would be interesting to see.

I’ve never seen this video before, but I actually think the food looks delicious! LOL If you’ve ever been on the Atkins diet where you can eat all the meat you want (and you WILL lose weight, and your cholesterol WILL go down) it makes me say “Gee, these are good recipes, wish I had them back when I was on that diet.” ha
About the question how long can this last… I think they could get a little more than their 15 minutes of fame because from what I’ve seen, they’re pretty personable and funny so I can see why they might get a following. They don’t offend me at all. (Gotta love the “bacon weave”! LOL who would ever think of that one!)

I might add to my previous comment, that on the Atkins diet you can have all the meat and protein you want, provided you don’t add any carbs with it… which is very difficult. That’s why most people don’t stay on the diet for very long. Still, I lost 20 lbs and never gained it back and I only did it for about 3 weeks (and I cheated and had some carbs)

The video is hilarious. After watching the video, it made me crave for foods especially meat. I would like to watch for more.
