Epic Meal Time

""Online cooking show! Got the magnum of Jack Daniels, about to change the game! What'you know about cooking? Breakfast! Wake up -- WAKE THE (caw!) UP!""

- Harley Morenstein, host, in Breakfast of Booze.

" "So many chunks of bacon!""

- Muscles Glasses, in Maximum Protein Experience.

So a Montreal high school substitute teacher and his friends decided one day to put a ton of fast food items onto a pizza shell, cover that in cheese and cook it. Then, surprisingly, it got hits. Now, they've turned their gluttony into a weekly series devoted to the most high-calorie and fattening dishes imaginable: Epic Meal Time. The show started in October 2010 and is still ongoing, with new episodes every Tuesday.

With the audacity to call themselves an "online cooking show", the first efforts soon expanded into meat sculptures, questionable uses of bacon, "meat glue", bacon and five birds in a pig - and bacon.

Their website is at last up and running. They have made an appearance on Jay Leno, where they made a shepherd's pie that was also a car.

"Harley: "Next time, we eat a cult. ... *hic!*""
 * AcCENT Upon the Wrong SylLABle - All the time:
 * "Epic Meal Time dessert eDItion."
 * "Bacon STRIPS."
 * "Jack Dagnel's SAUce."
 * "Ahwahtup, McMuhfain, MOUWN-TAIN!"
 * Affectionate Parody - "Vegan Meal Time", while containing no meat or animal products, has a vegan dish that can only be described as epic. Oh, and seaweed strips.
 * Regular Ordinary Swedish Meal Time, which ups the Large Ham factor so much that it somehow makes Harley Morenstein and Co. look subdued and professional in comparison.
 * A team of mild-mannered Brits give us "Pathetic Meal Time", a thorough de-hamming (only in the acting sense-- in terms of the meal created, they are indeed hamming it up) of EMT's brand.
 * Epic Cupcake Time and Epic Pie Time, which take the show and filter it through the lens of ponies.
 * Annoying Orange - Epic Peel Time.
 * A God Am I - Invoked in "Puzzle of the Lambs", where they play God and make a "culinary abomination".
 * The Alcoholic - Harley rarely appears without a bottle of Jack in hand.
 * Neither does anyone else, especially Muscles Glasses.
 * Alcohol Hic - In "Breakfast of Booze":

"Harley: "And, uh, we got some glasses...as a little commemoration to, uh, one of our lost members. He is dead now. No joke, he's actually dead.""
 * All There in the Manual - The (nick)names of most of the cast are only seen on their respective Facebook/Twitter pages:
 * Sterling Toth, the cameraman (was with Harley on Leno).
 * Tyler Lemco, who ate the "Meatball Deathstar".
 * David "Cousin Dave" Heuff, who ate the "Epic Eggroll". Tends to eat with utensils.
 * Josh "Epic Mook" Elkin, who tossed the meat salad.
 * Ameer "Prince Atari" Atari, who ate the second "Meat Car".
 * You had to go to That Other Wiki to learn Muscles Glasses' real name: Alex Perrault.
 * And a Diet Coke - During Harley and Sterling's appearance on The Jay Leno Show, they and Jay make a shepherd's pie together, during which Jay says, "You know what goes good with this? A Diet Coke."
 * Anyone Can Die - Muscles Glasses

""Your drink will be?" "Fresca.""
 * Back From the Dead - Muscles Glasses
 * Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking - Harley, after ordering a Baconator and fries in a Wendy's drive-thru, is told the drink would only be twenty cents more.

"Harley: "Four-cheese ravioli, Chef Boyardee Ravioli in ravioli, trifecta-liqour-meat sauce, cheesy-meat jolly balls and four of the hungriest mother(caw!)s that ever ate on the internet!""
 * "84 Egg Sandwich" (and a blueberry muffin)
 * "Fast Food Lasagna" features them buying 15 McDonald's Big Macs, a liter of Big Mac Sauce, fifteen Wendy's Baconators, fifteen A&W Teen Burgers (no vegetables!), and four orders of onion rings...and an apple pie...make that four apple pies (Harley gave the apple pies to a mother for her kids).
 * Ascended Fanboy - Paolo, a student from Queen's University, emailed them asking for advice on how to do his own epic meal. The cast of Epic Meal Time road-tripped to Kingston, Ontario and cooked with him and his crew.
 * Awesome McCoolname - Muscles Glasses
 * To a lesser extent, Cousin Dave's "Mean Muggin, the Egg Crackin' Kraken".
 * Harley Mortenstein, aka the Doctor of Dressing, aka the Pharoah of Flavour, aka the Minister of Mixture, aka the Connoisseur of Condiments, aka the Don of the Drippin', aka the Jeff Goldblum of the Internet, aka the Sawce Bawce.
 * Badass Beard - Harley's grew in during the run of the series.
 * Bacon Addiction - Because everything's better with bacon strips. And bacon strips. And bacon strips. And bacon strips.
 * Big Badass Wolf - Muscles Glasses' father has a pet wolf...who loves bacon.
 * Big Damn Heroes - At the start of "Fast Food Meatloaf"
 * Big Eater - This shouldn't require an explanation.

"Harley: EVERY TUESDAY: EPIC MEAL TIME! Comin' at you with a chainsaw and a big pile o'meat! If you ain't down with that...THEN YOU AIN'T DOWN WITH COOKING!!!"
 * Big No - One of the crew in the background at the end of "The Sloppy Roethlisburger", when Harley accidentally slams and cracks the bottom of a bottle of Jack Daniels.
 * Bilingual Bonus - The text on the title card of "Fast Food Sushi".
 * In "Epic Indian Experience", the waiter translates Harley's description of the dishes.
 * BLAM Episode - "Drunken Mess", where the cast just bombs around Montreal partying it up and hanging out with random people.
 * "Zombie Meal Time" (though that actually has cooking in it...of animal brains)
 * "Meat Cthulhu"
 * Blatant Lies - In "Bacon Bacon Truck", a girl "swears she's 21" before a group does some prison shots. After Harley (wisely) cards her, she leaves.
 * She sneaks back into the huddle after taking off her noticeable red hoodie and letting down her hair. "(caw!)in' smart", indeed.
 * Breakout Character - Muscles Glasses. As if it wasn't apparent in the videos, he's the only cast member in "EpicMealTime LIVE" to receive his own introduction sequence.
 * Call Back - "Maximum Mac and Cheese" featured macaroni and cheese variants of no less than five previous dishes.
 * "Meat Cthulhu" not only brought back Deadmau5, but the episode used the song "Cthulhu Sleeps", one of two songs previously used in "Cheesy Grilled Cheese Tower".
 * To mark their one-year anniversary, the guys bought over 150 White Castle hamburgers and used it as pizza toppings to create a "Fast Food Pizza Cake", just like their first meal "Fast Food Pizza", except bigger and using new cooking tricks they learned over the year, such as deep-frying and bacon weaves.
 * The Turbaconepicentipede. Just like the TurBaconEpic, except ten of them...sewn anus to mouth.
 * "WE GETTIN' DRUNK OFF CEREAL!"
 * Canada, Eh? - Muscles Glasses' dad is a lumberjack for crying out loud.
 * Mistaken Nationality - More than a few first time viewers assume the cast are American. No guesses as to why.
 * Catch Phrase - "What'you know about x?!"
 * "Next time, we eat x".
 * "Next level x maneuver/technique!"
 * "x? That's (caw!)ing SMART!"
 * "Ah, what up, x?!"
 * "Drip-drop drippin'!"
 * "You wanna (caw!) this or what?!"
 * "Fingering/Fisting those chicks [eggs]."
 * "...and then you put it in the oven, and then you win!"
 * "YouTube money!"
 * More recently: "Epic Meal Time online cooking show every Tuesday!" (said by Harley to start each episode, once the gang is in the kitchen).
 * Chainsaw Good - Harley uses one in "Meatball Deathstar":

"Harley: "When I say "Muscles", you say "Glasses! MUSCLES!!"
 * Another one is used in "Meat Shield" against a dummy dressed in bacon, pot roast, pepperoni and ribs.
 * Chuck Cunningham Syndrome - The two girls who were recurring characters on the show (beginning with "Massive Meat Log") haven't appeared in the videos anymore. "Fast Food Meatloaf" even had different girls play the roles that would normally be filled by them.
 * And then one of them (later revealed to be named Sarah, who has her own Twitter page) returned in the "Angry French Onion Soup" episode. This was also one of Muscles Glasses's last episodes.
 * He returned after being at the gym for 2 months. Given that his last episode before this he drank many, MANY bottles of liquor (in addition to the booze he drank in previous episodes, and eating more than the rest of the cast), he probably needed to rest before destroying his liver.
 * Cloudcuckoolander - Arguably, Tyler; Prince Atari has shades of this, too, depending on the episode.
 * The Comically Serious - Cousin Dave, who uses utensils to eat as calm and composed as possible, while the rest of the guys just gorge themselves with the food.
 * Cool Shades - Harley in "Fast Food Pizza" and Muscles Glasses afterward.
 * The chefs and the waiter in "Epic Indian Experience".
 * Crossover, Special Guest - With Freddie "freddiew" Wong in "Epic VFX Time" and "West Coast Burger Pile" (alongside Corridor Digital).
 * With DJ/producer Deadmau5 in "Cheesy Grilled Cheese Tower" and "Meat Cthulhu".
 * With synthpop singer/songwriter Lights in "Fast Food Meatloaf".
 * With FPSRussia in "Russian Meal Time", "Meat Shield", and "Meat Ice Cream Party (Russian Meal Time Part 2)."
 * With professional skateboarder Tony Hawk in "Fast Food Pizza Cake".
 * With the Smosh duo in "Super Pastry Cake".
 * No fewer than six Youtube celebrities in "Turbaconepicentipede", both recurring and newcomers.
 * With the Kids React To cast in "Happy Meal Time".
 * With Gabriel Iglesias in "Fast Food Fluffy Cake."
 * Crowd Song - In "EpicMealTime LIVE":

Crowd: "GLASSES!!!"

Harley: "MUSCLES!!!"

Crowd: "GLASSES!!!""

""Cerberus, the tri-head that guards the underworld.""
 * Cultured Badass - Yes, Harley may spend most of his time hamming up new dinners in every possible sense of the word, but he also knows, on a scientific level, exactly why he does what he does with food, and exactly why that makes it taste better: humans are programmed by evolution to like fatty foods.
 * From "Puzzle Of The Lambs":

"Harley: "Taco night is when we lay some beef in a pink taco...drip some guacamole...make her sour cream...""
 * Did You Just Eat Cthulhu? - "Meat Cthulhu"
 * Doing It for the Art - Driving out to help Paolo cook his own epic meal? As Harley would say, "(caw!)IN' SMART!"
 * Double Entendre - In "Tequila Taco Night":

"Harley: "...we're gonna give your sweet tooth a sexual root canal.""
 * Also in "Candy BBQ":

"Harley: "Canucks love their Kraft Mac & Cheese...and bacon, and igloos, and maple and beavers. (Snicker) Maple beavers...""
 * From "Sausage Fest":

"Harley: "Next time, we eat a cat burglar...or a pussy thief.""
 * At The Stinger for "Bacon Tree":

"Harley: "SA-OOOSAGES! Some are big, some are small. All of them are nice and juicy...not to sound gay or anything...""
 * Played straight at first in "Meatzza", but then subverted at the last second:

"Harley: "Gosh, we used to be so damn polite. But the bacon made us crazy!! And by crazy, I mean smart!!""
 * Drink Order - Jack Daniels, mother(caw!)!!
 * Drugs Are Bad - In "Sausage Fest", while making eggs, Harley states they're "Crackin' eggs like we crack smoke." He then suggests "Smoke crack?", but immediately answers "No, that's bad."
 * Early Installment Weirdness - "Fast Food Pizza" sees Harley not nearly as hammy (or rehearsed); it's just him and Muscles Glasses (who doesn't even keep his signature shades on most of the time and actually talked) eating a pizza loaded with hamburgers, chicken wings, fries, etc.
 * Lampshaded in "Candy Poutine" with a Call Back to the "Angry French Canadian" (which had poutine):

"Harley: "We got a whole bowl of ostrich eggs! On Epic Meal Time, we fist our ostrich eggs! (Camera pans to a bowl full of ostrich egg yolks) Look at me fist those chicks! (Harley literally dunks his fist to beat the egg yolks) Yeah, I'm fisting chicks...on the Internet...on Youtube.""
 * Erotic Eating - Played straight with the "Massive Meat Log".
 * And again with "The Black Legend".
 * Combined with Spaghetti Kiss in "Tequila Taco Night", where two girls share a strip of bacon.
 * Taken Up to Eleven in "Maximum Mac and Cheese" with no fewer than sixteen young attractive women participating in a massive banquet of over-the-top macaroni dishes.
 * Played for laughs in the second deleted scenes video, where Harley strokes and kisses the Sloppy Roethlisburger.
 * "Sausage Fest"
 * And, naturally, there is no lack of male erotic eating.
 * Even Gluttony Has Standards - In "The Ostrich Nest", Harley gives a saddened, gloomy expression due to the elephant birds of Madagascar being extinct.
 * Pragmatic Gluttony - Or perhaps he was simply disappointed that he couldn't eat an elephant bird egg because they're extinct?
 * Or perhaps he gave it because he IS the reason they went extinct.
 * Everything Is Better Deep Fried - Especially in beer batter.
 * Everything's Deader with Zombies/Zombie Apocalypse - Whichever trope "Zombie Meal Time" falls under depends on how you look at it: within the context of the episode, it appears to be the latter full-blown. However, when taking this episode in the context of the whole series, it's merely an example of the former.
 * Five-Man Band
 * The Hero - Harley, who invented and hosts the show.
 * The Lancer - Sterling, who, although is seen rarely in episodes, is not just the cameraman, but the video editor.
 * The Big Guy - Muscles Glasses and Epic Mook, who does most of the cooking.
 * The Smart Guy - Tyler, who does the fat and calorie counter, and Cousin Dave, who eats like a gentleman.
 * Kid Appeal Character - Prince Atari, who makes faces and funny noises.
 * Flat What - The usual response from fast-food outlets from whom they order in bulk in the drive-thru. There's no way that listening to their confusion wouldn't be the best bit of doing Epic Meal Time.
 * Food Porn - But not the kind of soft, loving and tender porn you're used to. No, this is the manly, bacon-filled, made-of-meat food porn...for you perverts out there.
 * Note that one of the men is a trained chef. Think about that for a while.
 * Friend to All Children - Harley, who draws the line at dead baby jokes and gives apple pie to kids.
 * Funny Background Event - During Peanut Butter and Jelly Archetype, there's a sequence where Harley shows all of the food they've made for the episode, complete with calories counters. While he's doing this, Muscles Glasses is standing right next to him, eating from a jar of Nutella in his pocket with a mixing spoon.
 * Genre Savvy - In "84 Egg Sandwich", Harley goes and orders close to 100 breakfast sandwiches from McDonald's. The employee manning the drive-thru station (correctly) guesses it's for an Epic Meal Time project.
 * Getting Crap Past the Radar - In "The Ostrich Nest":

"FPSRussia: "Okay, this is the MP5K. "K" stands for "Kompact" in German, don't give me bullshit: I know what the gun is.""
 * Gingerbread House - "OF MEAT AND CHEEZ WHIZ! Merry Christmas."
 * Godwin's Law/Hitler Ate Sugar - "You know who else didn't like too much bacon? Hitler. And you don't want to be Hitler, do you? No. ."
 * Guns and Gunplay Tropes - "Russian Meal Time" provides examples of:
 * AKA-47 - Lampshaded and averted by FPSRussia:

"Harley: Changin' the game!
 * Everyone Is Armed - Played with: Muscles Glasses makes mashed potatoes while holding a submachine gun.
 * Pistol-Whipping - Harley, Muscles Glasses and FPSRussia take turns tenderizing meat, the latter using a Desert Eagle to do it.
 * Spent Shells Shower - Sort of: FPSRussia dribbles bullets out of his mouth at the end.
 * Swiss Army Gun - Harley uses a rifle + bayonet as a skewer for around half a dozen hamburgers.
 * Trigger Happy - Invoked by FPSRussia during the shooting range segment against users of this trope. Harley starts to turn guilty when a Desert Eagle wounds up in his hand, but slightly subverted when he asks FPSRussia if it's alright to pull the trigger after the latter inspects the gun first.
 * Wall of Weapons - At the gun store
 * Hilarious Outtakes - Two videos out outtakes so far, but one was included as a stinger:

(Harley slaps down a bottle of Jack Daniels...which is accompanied by a crack.)

Off-camera voice: (as booze starts leaking) OHHH!

(Harley picks up the bottle, just as the bottom of the bottle falls out.)

Harley: Oh (caw!)...

Off-camera voice: NOOOOO!"

"Harley: "I've been sippin' on that green and smokin' that liquor all day.""
 * Hot-Blooded - The beginning of "Candy Pizza" confirms Harley as this.
 * Hypocritical Humour - Harley calls the audience perverts for wanting to watch a girl eat the "Massive Meat Log" -- then the reverse angle shows him and all of his friends doing the exact same thing.
 * Improvised Clothes - A bacon bikini in the "Gentleman's Episode".
 * Insistent Terminology - How Harley justifies the Product Placement during the meals: "We didn't sell out--they bought in."
 * Insult Backfire - Their official website links to a lambasting from PETA in their About section, indicating they may be proud of having pissed them off.
 * It Is Pronounced "Tro-PAY" - In "Candy Poutine", Cousin Dave corrects Harley's mixing-up of 'ganache' and Grenache brand caramel. When Harley does it again, saying "carmel" and Dave corrects him, he drops a Precision F-Strike on Dave.
 * Known Only By Their Nickname - Alex "Muscles Glasses" Perrault
 * Large Ham - Harley's one and he proceeds to cook truckloads.
 * Malaproper - Harley opens with one in "Tequila Taco Night":

"Harley: "We all know that no one wants to see a douchebag eat a corndog, so we brought a little girl in for all you perverts!""
 * Male Gaze - There's a lot of cleavage in "The Black Legend".
 * Also in "Maximum Mac and Cheese" and "Sausage Fest".
 * Mathematician's Answer - In "Meat Building 101", Paolo asks Tyler what kind of meat they used to build the Slaughterhouse. Tyler stumbles over his answer, but essentially tells him, "All of the meat."
 * Ms. Fanservice - The girl from "Massive Meat Log":

"Harley: "Some say we're the spawns of evil, meat-demon cyborgs. Well, we're not: we've got mother(caw!)ing moms...that are the spawns of evil, meat-demon cyborgs!""
 * They use another girl for "Fast Food Sushi"; they both come back for "The Black Legend".
 * They, plus a horde of other hot girls, appear in "Maximum Mac and Cheese", "Drunken Mess" and "Sausage Fest".
 * "Fast Food Meatloaf" starts off with the boys "rescuing" a trio of Ms Fanservices (including Lights) from some "hamburglers".
 * Ninja Bacon Pirate Zombie Bacon Robot -- Bacon Edition
 * Lampshaded in the Mother's Day Special:

""Next time we eat bacon. Mweheheh.""
 * Neck Lift - Muscles Glasses to two thieving thugs in "Fast Food Meatloaf".
 * Non Sequitur
 * "SUSHI! FAST FOOD! SEX!"
 * "WE 'BOUT TO GET DRUNK OFF PANCAKES!!!"
 * "We're about to die for this. What'you know about dyin'?"
 * "What up, meat sauce?"
 * Once an Episode - "Next time, we eat x!" where x is something outlandish or impossible to eat.
 * Subverted in "The Slaughterhouse": "Next time, we eat dessert!" Sure enough, the following week was "The Black Legend": two girls eating a gigantic crepe.
 * Also subverted in "Epic H'our D'oeuvres":

""Next time, we eat ice cream." (Cue all the girls cheering)"
 * Yet another subversion for "Sausage Fest":

""Next time, we eat sell outs. Next time, we eat while selling out... Netflix.com/bacon.""
 * In "12 Gauge Hot Dog", Harley says "Next time, we eat blood!" and in the next video, "Zombie Meal Time", Muscles Glasses takes a shot of Jack Daniels and blood.
 * Averted in the first video, which ends with Muscles Glasses (sans glasses) raising his arms in the air triumphantly after eating.
 * At the end of French Fry Salad:

""Next time, we eat. We have to, or we'll die.""
 * Subverted in "Candy Sushi":

"Harley: "Well I guess you can say that this is the "no-meat" episode...but don't you (caw!)ing say it.""
 * The Other Darrin - Played with: in "Maximum Protein Experience", Muscles Glasses is replaced with someone having a similar body build and trademark sunglasses. When Epic Mook notices Muscles Glasses working out at the gym where they're filming at, Harley tells the extra they don't need him anymore.
 * Played with again in "Epic Stockyard Burger": Harley's absent to do the video intro, so Tyler fills in for him...until Harley walks out from the store and tells Tyler to go out, buy lunch and do his proper job.
 * In "Meat Mummy", Muscles Glasses wears a costume that turns him into... a random black guy. The rest of the guys (sans Harvey/"Beard Lightyear" and Cousin Dave as "Tony Hawk") wind up dressing up as Muscles Glasses.
 * Out of Focus: Muscles Glasses drops out of sight for several episodes (March-May 2012). Harley and the gang mention him in passing, and he is briefly seen hitchhiking along a back road. They offer up a sacrifice to prepare for his return ("Fastfood Sacrifice"), then cook him a bacon-stuffed cheeseburger after he shows up and helps them defeat a gang of vegan zombies ("Zombie Vegan Attack!"/"Boss Bacon Burger").
 * Overly Long Gag - Bacon in general.
 * Playing to The Fetishes - You like to watch girls eating? You do now. Straight female vorehounds? This is your mecca.
 * Precision F-Strike - In "Spam Fries Four Loko", Cousin Dave shouts one out when someone tells him there's an automatic can opener after he finishes opening a couple of canned goods with a manual can opener.
 * Rated "M" for Manly/Testosterone Poisoning - Debatable on which trope the show really follows; regardless, both come along with clogged arteries.
 * Real Men Eat Meat
 * Subverted for Fan Service instead in "Massive Meat Log".
 * Invoked in "Sugar Shack" by Muscles Glasses' lumberjack father.
 * Totally averted with "Candy BBQ" and "Candy Poutine".

"Harley: "And we got these custom sauces, 'cause I'm the 'Doctor of Dressing', aka the 'Pharaoh of Flavour', aka the 'Minister of Mixture', aka the 'Connoisseur of Condiments', aka the 'Don of the Drippin', aka the 'Jeff Goldblum of the Internet', aka... [dramatic zoom on the sauces] ...the Sauce Boss."
 * Re Cut - The Director's Cut of "Zombie Meal Time", one of the most controversial episodes gets a brand new opening, the cooking narration absent in the original, new scenes of the guys talking while in makeup and is streamlined from 7.5 minutes to 4 minutes.
 * Red Baron - In "Fast Food Sushi", Harley dubs himself the "Sauce Boss".
 * I Have Many Names - Taken further in "Candy Sushi":

"Harley: "Oh, you wanna change the game? Well, if you wanna change the game, you gotta stay ahead of it! And how do you do that? You eat a well-balanced breakfast of eggs, bacon, sandwiches and liquor! Rise and shine, you tired-ass mother(caw!)s.""
 * Refuge in Audacity - All of them, really, but it doesn't get much more audacious than putting five birds into a pig.
 * Oh, it does. At LEAST ten times more.
 * Rousing Speech - Most of the video intros; take "84 Egg Sandwich" for example:

"Harley: "If you don't marinate your meat in a Ziploc bag, you think too highly of yourselves.""
 * Self-Deprecation - Invoked in "Tequila Taco Night":

"Lights: "Holy crap, my burgers! How can I ever repay you?"
 * And again, when Harley (in disguise) appears on an episode of The Gentlemens Rant about Epic Meal Time.
 * Serial Escalation - It started with a dish that anyone could make, then other culinary mashups. As more episodes rolled in, the dishes involved long and complex preparation methods, vegetables and require an entire dinner table of people to finish.
 * Then they broke the 100,000 calorie barrier.
 * "And because we're (caw!)ed up, we garnished the whole thing with Baconators!"
 * "French Fry Week": during the week of October 3, 2011, the guys released one episode per day with french fries as the central ingredient. They ended off the week with a 15-pound poutine.
 * "Turbaconepicentipede": the "TurBacon Epic Thanksgiving" times ten, for a grand total of 802,420 calories.
 * Sharp-Dressed Man - The whole cast in "The Gentleman's Episode".
 * Sound Effect Bleep - Nearly every curse word is censored via a crow's call. At least one instance of the word "vegetables" was censored, too.
 * If you listen carefully in certain episodes, they do forget to edit out some curse words.
 * Averted in the first half of "EpicMealTime LIVE".
 * Standard Hero Reward - Parodied in "Fast Food Meatloaf":

Harley: "I dunno...maybe (caw!)ing share with us, you greedy bitches?""

"Harley: "Muscles Glasses has a detachable penis, that also happens to be a combat knife.""
 * Swiss Army Appendage - Played with in "Russian Meal Time":

""What'you know about health? "Salad"? (caw!) SALAD!!!"
 * Take That - "What you doin'? Hatin'? STOP HATIN'!!! BLEND YOUR OWN BACON!!!"
 * "Meat Salad". Seriously, just listen to some of Harley's dialogue in the video:

"Epic Meal Time showing you how to make a real salad! (caw!) your lettuce!"

"Oh, you didn't know? Carrots are for ugly people!""

"Cousin Dave: "One of these days, I'm going to witness you lose a finger."
 * They gave a very scathing F-U on their Facebook page to the people who were hating on "Drunken Mess".
 * A vegetarian of 4 years was pressured into eating a bacon strip in "Bacon Bacon Truck".
 * Tastes Like Crazy Alcohol Rainbow Pig
 * Trademark Favorite Food - Bacon, though Harley has a soft spot for macaroni and cheese. To a slightly lesser extent, Jack Daniels Whiskey.
 * The Stoic - Aside from "Sugar Shack," Muscles Glasses will get in maybe two lines of dialogue during a couple episodes; most of the time he'll remain quite and/or communicate with strong glares at the camera.
 * Troll - Although the guys may band together to create an epic meal, there are certain times when one of them can't help but either insult, snark or outright jinx each other. In "The Ostrich Nest", for example, when Epic Mook starts dicing up some onions:

Epic Mook: "Why?"

Cousin Dave: "It's just going to happen."

Epic Mook: "I'm very careful with this."

Cousin Dave: "I know you are...but it'll happen."

[Beat]

Epic Mook: "...Don't be a prick.""

"Harley: "We'll have a hundred and fifty.""
 * Also, Harley at the Mass Effect 3 launch
 * Unintentional Innuendo - In "Chili Four Loko", after Cousin Dave opens a fresh bag of potato chips and takes a whiff of it, Harley's narration goes on to say "Love the smell of a fresh sack".
 * Unusually Uninteresting Sight - Muscles Glasses snapping two thieves' necks isn't given anything more than a simple "Yup, he's doing it again..." from Tyler.
 * Up to Eleven - Their holiday specials, the "TurBaconEpic Thanksgiving" and "The Slaughterhouse".
 * "The Sloppy Big Ben Roethlisberger" was so large and beyond sane even Harley began to sputter as he was getting psyched to make it.
 * The "Turbaconepicentipede" took the "TurBacon Epic Thanksgiving" and multiplied it by ten. They didn't just break the previous calorie count the Roethlisberger had: they destroyed it at more than 800,000 calories.
 * Verbal Tic - "Sauce" is (nowadays) always pronounced "SA-OOOS"
 * As "Sausage" is pronounced "SA-OOOSAGE"
 * "Jack Daniels'" is now "Jack Dagnels"
 * Wham! Line - From "Fast Food Pizza Cake":


 * What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome? - They do for meat what Light Yagami did for potato chips.
 * Widget Series: Averted. Although plenty strange, its over-the-topness is way more American in inspiration than Canadian.
