For the past year The Liver King has been calling on all of us to eat raw meats to get SWOL. I don’t know about you, Loyal Theorist, but that does NOT sound appetizing. . . However, his diet DID intrigue me. Even though The Liver King Confession video exposed some… QUESTIONABLE practices, I still had to know if a raw meat diet could ACTUALLY work?! There’s only one way to find out, so let’s find out the RAW truth.

Love how whenever Matpat uploads, thousands of people arrive in a second! Just shows how dedicated you guys are! Mad respect! 👊
amogus
@asher williams ok
yeah
I was surprised that MatPat didn't go into the possibilities of mineral overdoses that can come from bone marrow / liver consumption... a bit is healthy, but it's possible to literally poison yourself with iron. "All things in moderation."
@SmartassEyebrows That's because multivitamins are not a bioavailable source comparatively, but vitamin toxicity has been a growing concern in the last few years
@Gamerdweeb Entertainment Not if you exclusively eat meat
these ppl are smart
Can't cover ever tiny detail.
Don't forget the tenth Ancestral tenant..... JUICE HEAVILY, ALL THE STEROIDS, THEN DENY IT HARDCORE... LOL😊
What’s truly “primal” is the fact that, more than a decade later, MatPat is still using that photo of himself with the eyes. That dedication to stay true to self is the real key to success and happiness
If you take "staying true to yourself" to mean "never changing." Then that is actually a very bad idea. Sometimes change is inevitable, because of Entropy. Sometimes, change is desirable, because the way you started out was just bad. We all start out as babies. Babies can't speak, read, write, or make internet videos.
@justgoingincognito dawg mat pat literally talked about it on his channel no need to censor lol.
@crowgeddon yeah?? Then why is there like 1000 kids channels here? You wont be expecting kyle from high school to be watching cocomelon would you?
@justgoingincognito dude kids under 13 shouldn't even be on Clip-Share much less the internet itself
Ye
So, actual "ancestral" people would've probably laughed at this guy for not cooking his food lol.
@Normal Human considering pickling and intentional fermentation are methods of cooking I hate to inform you that no, humans are not the only animals that cook.
Swamp crocodiles will bury their food, even when they're hungry, in mud to ferment it
Bro he would be seen as a barbarian by Julius Caesar and would probably be tortured by his legions, he'd be lucky enough to avoid crucifixion if he continued promoting eating things raw.
I wonder if people who prefer raw meats may offer a scientific glimpse towards the missing link of our ancestor's evolution.
Cooking is what makes us human. Other animals can love and show empathy to other species, but no other species cooks
The worst part about his apology is that he isn’t actually helping young men that much. He isn’t all to different from the people who push potentially harmful female beauty standards.
@WoobGamer No. He makes money because people are buying his supplements.
@strange17 simple
he was already rich before he even started his career
@Pants enFuego Then how is he making money?
Saying liver king is a role model for young men is like saying Stormy Daniels is a role model for young women.
@Pants enFuego You'd be surprised
Now *That Vegan Teacher Vs The Liver King* Would Be A *LEGENDARY* Battle!
@Spyrit2011 Yeah!
Let the rap battle begin!
@PabuI would spend all my money to get watch the liver king and the vegan teacher have a common sense battle
@Moon Men Gaming "Then eat these liver fist woman!"
For every food that exists, there was one brave soul that said: "Imma put that in my mouth, see where it leads me."
"Oh no i have no meat. What if i..."

Many people have fallen victim to slow poisoning from "safe" foods.
@SoySaucetake a joke
not only one.... and also for the things that are not food (for us)
You should make a part 2 to this where you discuss the effects of not eating veggies
@Zen Kim vegan cope
Short answer: constipation ... like, majorly bad constipation, plus some bonus health issues.
Long answer:
A crucial benefit of a veggie-rich dietary lifestyle is that vegetables provide more than just the obvious "vitamins & minerals" we need, they also give us *dietary fiber* -- the "prebiotics" that our intestinal bacteria (the "good bugs" that inhabit our gut) feed on to thrive & proliferate, which translates to a healthier, more effective digestive system. Feeding your "good bugs" means that your gut bacteria become better @ breaking down your consumed meals, releasing more of the nutrients otherwise locked away in foods (this is why manure is & has been used as a form of fertilizer -- much of the nutrients in consumed food never get absorbed, so they remain in the resulting fecal matter) plus the fiber itself helps "push things along" thru your intestinal tract.
Meat & other animal products (eggs, cheeses & other dairy products, fish & seafood) on the other hand ... provide absolutely NO dietary fiber. Therefore, a typically meat-rich dietary lifestyle (far too common in the US & many other 1st World countries now) ends up hobbling the digestive system, robbing it of the invaluable dietary fiber it needs to do its job properly. If you're not eating a diet rich in veggies, chances R that you're suffering the effects of @ least mild constipation & overall lower health.
--But wait! There's more....
A little more study of human physiology gives us clues as to what the ideal human diet truly is. Get an illustrated book on human anatomy & take a look @ the digestive system. Notice the long, twisty intestines? That's the mark of a true herbivore: carnivores have much shorter intestinal tracts to handle the meat-heavy diets they evolved for, whereas plant-based diets require much more lengthy intestinal systems to properly digest consumed foods. Also, true predators & natural meat-eaters produce a digestive enzyme to break down animal flesh. By contrast, humans produce *no* such enzyme! (This is why the manufacturers of antacids & stomach-relief products make bank off of meat-eating consumers but next to nothing off of the vegan/vegetarian community.)
The irony is that, especially in light of the recent trend of food prices, it makes much more sense to cut down as much as possible on the meats, eggs & cheeses & instead expand our consumption of vegetables & other plant-based foods -- including beans, nuts & seeds, which R by far a healthier source of protein, iron & dietary fats (flaxseed & flaxseed oil R both good sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, for example). Not only will your gut thank U & reward U for it, your wallet will reap the benefits as well!
Bonus fact: statistically, vegans, vegetarian purists (no animal products) & other likeminded people (such as strict Zen Buddhists) have historically enjoyed lower rates of obesity, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke & cancer than the societal norm. Going all-vegetarian is thus more than a dietary fad or a cost-cutting measure ... it's an investment in your future health & life expectancy.
@Mono Mishi The point is he doesn't eat plants.
for us indians you guys are basically eating ingrediants of a delicious dish
I love how when MatPat said “Liver onions and beef aren’t exactly tasty.” The subtitles said “speak for yourself.” It’s true though, liver with onions plus Egyptian bread is completely amazing! I recommend that you try it.
All arabs know how good that stuff is. And beef kidneys are amazing!
I genuinely laughed when Matpat said “you can tell he’s sincere because he did it from atop his throne”😂
One more point I find funny is that our ancestors evolved to eat plants so if he wanted to be primal he would have to eat a lot more vegetables.
@Cole DiBiase yeah but they don't eat /just/ meat, most people should eat a good mix of fruits, vegetables and meat/fish
@Snow Mexican I'm sorry, reality is evil and hurts us all.
@Cole DiBiase I cant stand the idea that pandas would even consider eating meat, theyre just too adorable with their little bamboo sticks in their hand munching away
Cows literally eat bird eggs and snakes when they get the chance, panda have to eat so much bamboo because they are supposed to eat meat.
I have never heard of this guy, and that opening clip already made me feel skeptical about his ways of achieving good health.
@Diệp Triệu yeah and he basically said that by living his supposed lifestyle and diet it will result in you getting a free private jet and free mansion which in turn will result in your anxiety and depression being cured
I didn't like him from the moment I found out he lied about his steroid use. Like, that immediately disqualifies you as any kind of influencer, lying to your followers to make a few quick dollars. This is why I dislike some of these "influencers" that actively target those down on their luck or mentally unwell. Like, "congratulations, you're a walking Dumpster fire. Woo hoo."
As soon as I saw his muscles I knew he was on steroids. You can't naturally get those kinds of muscles without being on roids. Anyone that says otherwise is flat out lying. There is a limit to the growth of muscle mass and if he wasn't on roids he would loose all of that Ina couple of weeks.
Same
This was fascinating! I knew that cooking our food helped us draw nutrients from it, but I didn't know our digestive systems were tiny as a result of thousands of years of using that technique! Biology is so cool, I'm fangirling right now! =O THIS is what I subbed to MatPat for! Great stuff!
as a humongo food nerd that works in the food industry, i freaking love your channel and am having such a good time watching your videos!!
As someone with a dad who enjoys cooking things like beef liver and pig heart, and I enjoy them myself, finding out that both are full of nutrients is a great revelation!!
I used to eat steak tartare (or the Belgian equivalent) for lunch every day when I was able (can't get it in the UK). But it's worth saying that the beef used has to be kept in specific conditions at ALL times, from farm to shop.
I'm a longtime subscriber who now shares your videos with my game/film/food-loving boys, and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate videos like this, that call out the BS of shallow, hypocritical influencers. There are so many peddling toxic and sometimes outright dangerous things they associate with "being a real man," and it's easy for boys still developing their identity to buy it. Videos like this are really helpful.
Idea for a video: Matpat use science to find the best way to "bulk up" by comparing all the fitness gurus, and then does an IRL reveal where he's more bulky than Liver King.
You can’t get liver king’s size without gear. That’s the secret. Everybody who’s built like a superhero is on roids. Don’t get me wrong, they also train and eat well, but you don’t get to look like the rock without steroids.
He becomes Hamza Ahmed's personal trainer
Machop used: bulk up
Wouldn't be able to get so bulky like the liver king on diet alone. Liver king does over 11k in steroids a month soo...
My theory about the liver king’s theory is he got it from the raw diets + liver which has gotten more popular for feeding to larger dogs - is supposed to help improve their skin, coat, and energy
Heat damages minerals in food, thats where it came from
which makes sense for dogs since what is in the majority of shelf brand is corn
Nothing says “primal” like dog food
Knowing everything that came to light about the Liver King's rampant steroid abuse and fraudulent practices with his fans, coming back to this video makes you look at it in a whole different light lol.
Just want to say that I think (cooked, of course) liver, heart and kidney is DELICIOUS! So I am really sad to see so much good food get thrown away because of pickiness. If you read this, I highly recommend that you at the very least test it sometime, you are missing out on something. Personally, intestents, spaghetti and sauce with parmesan cheese and berries is my favourite dish to eat on weekdays.
@The Kiasu Felicia sounds... DELICIOUS!
As an Asian, I love bak kut teh, usually including liver and kidney chopped up and boiled in soup. Take them out and dip them in soya sauce, absolutely delicious, 10/10 would recommend
I agree with the liver part. Mainly chicken liver.
I remember I've always actually been quite a fan of liver, even from the first times I had it when young. It's pretty underrated imo
Matpat: "Should you be spooning bone marrow like no tomorrow?"
Markiplier, looking up from his giant bowl of cold bone broth: 🫠
@Rythan Hemphill meat canyon markiplier, watch that ...
Bone broth is a broth made from bones that were cooked over a period of 24 hours. Bone broth is very healthy, but not raw in the slightest lol
I mean with how many thousands of dollars of steroids the liver king takes. I don’t think it’s the bone marrow. Also did you see his lame apology video?
Wait what? Context?
In Slovakia (Central Europe) we actually have liver meals today, I even remember it being served at the elementary school cafeteria, but it definitely isn't raw... xD Chicken liver prepared with onion and with rice. I actually like it (but it usually gives kids nightmares, it is a very unique taste you have to get used to)
Basically, he's eating the right stuff, the wrong way
@Some Guyeating less meat is absolutly better but. The best diet is eating both meat, animal products, vegatables and fruit in a moderate amount.
Since we humans are omnivores we have evolved to eat both.
Yea 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 17:38
@Hitsuga Tatsuro Perfect like count.
Plain and simple
@itz_Luvv_dakitti eating once won't destroy your own liver for sure

When watching your videos, I accidentally hit ‘like’ and never knew when.
The moment you came here is at 05:17.
Love this video, I think I’ve watched it four times.
I'm a liver lover. If someone gave me a choice between chicken nuggies and a liver and onion, I'd chose the latter EVERY SINGLE TIME. It's extremely tasty.
Personally I hate how liver tastes but I still eat it once in a while because it's basically a protein, vitamin and iron nuke
Liver and onions!
*lick lips noise*

I swear to god Matpat makes people up and then they become real.
Gorden Ramsey would normally call him a donut but I think for him he would call him a frosted liver
I'm shocked that you didn't talk about the vestigial appendix at all! Our consumption of cooked meat over generations has evolutionarily made our appendix become useless and in wild predator's and in our ancestors the appendix serves a strong purpose in digesting raw meat :P I am curious about the state of The Liver Kings appendix and how this diet has effected it..
I love how I have a extremely bad b12 deficiency and I got scared that I had to eat liver but then I remembered I can’t get b12 from food 😅
I would love to see a follow up with the carnivore diet in general. It’s catching on. Dr. Shawn Baker seems to be the main guy.
You'd think with how much he constantly talks about it in new videos, he'd bring up bioavailability even once here.
I wouldn’t say mat is a doctor but I would absolutely say he is a scientist
I love how every time he lies he looks away every single time
Love that he was like “ALL NATURAL ALL THE TIME!” And then was like, “Steroids are natural.”

My dog isn’t very picky especially with other animal parts, so him refusing to eat a fried chicken liver really says a lot about the taste 😂
😂 And then comes my dad who's been eating liver with onions his whole life.
Also... When he worked at the slaughterhouse... Back in his younger age... He'd also eat tongue. Yes, tongue. Of course washed, peeled and packed as a sausage for bread.
Another thing he liked was actually pig brain. Fried, probably with onions... I mean... Idk how that tastes... But I'm pretty much open for everything.
I'm not usually a fun of liver, but I do once in a while. Chicken hearts are just great. I goble it up whenever i have the chance to command the grill
lol the giblets are my favorite parts 😂
We have a local family owned place that we buy our chicken from and they sell whole containers of chicken liver, hearts, and gizzards.
I am probably the reason they still sell the large containers of each.
I buy them every time I go buy my chicken and eggs. 😂
In Germany, organs and raw meat (Mett) are still quite popular, heck, a large portion of the rural population eats Mett on an (almost) daily basis. And many of us were quite bummed out when it became increasingly harder to buy organ meat, especially brains! A German tradition, Grünkohl (kale) with Bregenwurst (brain sausage) literally DEPENDS on eating organs, and basically every Northern German waits the whole year for the first frost to arrive so they can start eating that!
I’m from an area of the US where there’s a fair amount of German heritage (the northern part of the Ohio River valley). It’s becoming increasingly rare, but there are places you used to be able to get fried brain sandwiches. I have to admit, once you get past what they actually are, they’re not bad.
Please do an episode on why we can eat more dessert when we're full.
@zeebo30 you mean Leptin and Ghrelin, the hunger hormones, leptin makes you satisfied, ghrelin makes you hungry. Lifestyle factors including lack of sleep, fasting, inconsistent eating and overall food intake throughout the day increase ghrelin. Ghrelin will decrease and leptin will increase when you are satisfied and full. You can absolutely become satisfied eating enough sugary foods. I understand what you’re trying to say, but increase in Ghrelin does not outweigh the satiety of the food itself meaning there is a net positive satiating effect. If sugar/sugary foods only made you hungry/hungrier/increased appetite, then you could keep eating forever which is not the case, you will eventually become full and satisfied. This is even seen in the lab with pure table sugar. So no, my guy, I’m not wrong. And look, by saying people are wrong in the comment section, it provides a little shock value so people actually read the comment and think about things from a different perspective, it’s not a personal attack.
@zeebo30 sugar does not increase appetite, it’s just not satiating. It’s hard to become full on sugar because sugary foods taste so good. Proteins, fiber rich foods and fats are much more satiating. So yes, it is in fact wrong.
I am super fond of sweetbreads, especially in Brazil, I have them grilled, and man i fell in love with them. In spite of eating Army mess hall liver for many years, I still enjoy it, as long as it doesn't taste and has the texture of burnt rubber. (Thank you Uncle Sam)
Eating fried chicken liver with baked apples is still a thing in Europe, especially Central/Eastern one.
Also, to compare the prices: chicken liver in Poland tends to cost around 1 USD per pound, so it's reaaaaaaaly cheap compared to breasts, thighs or wings ;)
actually liver here in italy it is not unpopular, i personally don't like it but a lot of people that i know eat it pretty often! you will find it very often in restaurants too:)
This videos are so good that I get anxiety when I finished them because of how good they were and i'll have to wait until the next video uploads. :)
As someone who hates liver: chicken heart is actually really good (as long as it's not raw) -- try it sometime! It's a favorite among BBQs here in the south of Brazil, especially a children's favorite. I'm saying this as a picky eater.
A wise person once said; "If someone seems larger than life with all the answers, they're selling an act not sharing their story"

This is the times when I respect Matpat, a proper video with well done research.
I love liver! I've eaten it since the first month of my life, because I have a severe iron deficiency. My mom would take liver mush and mix it with condensed milk to use as my formula, then the straight liver mush was my baby food when I was off the bottle. It is considered a superfood because of its nutritional value. But as you said, COOKED! I like breaded and deep fried chicken liver best!
Being Icelandic I was raised on liver pâté (kæfa) and a type of liver sausage called lifrarpylsa. We love liver. Liver is delicious, but absolutely should be cooked
As that Liver King give bad/fake advise, there are millions of (young) male that want to proof they are alpha for their self-esteem and prestige that did, do and will continue to elevate and revere this person.
One way or another, there must be tastier alternatives that give as much nutrition as heart and liver.
@Kuhluh Heart and lung work as ground meat just grind it more.
@Demopans there are many ways (one traditional dish here in my area is for example sour lung)
@Kuhluh
Stir fry liver can work, but I think the liver is typically dried off first
While it's bad to eat liver (or really anything meat based) raw, cooking it doesn't really have a downside (well, it's hard to make it taste well, but that's it).
liver requires much preparation in order to me flavorful. usually, some blanching as a first step
beef liver goulash with Buckwheat was something that appeared from time to time, and I recommend it as its very good. I recommend it as its S tier taste.
You know an influencer is legitimate and trustworthy when they suggest their food diet will make you rich, because those things are DEFINITELY actually connected /s
@Ethan The Boss Oh, being unhealthy absolutely can make your life more difficult, however, suggesting that any diet will make you rich and successful is absolute bs. Especially since usually the kind of "success" being talked about is very limited.
People who tout this nonsense usually claim a style of success that, in actuality, requires a lot of luck and/or resources not everyone has access to.
It's the same kind of nonsense as the "everyone has the same 24 hours" bullshit.
@Pascal Simioli and you wonder why so many streamers deal with bad mental health?
@Pascal Simioli Being healthy is good either way especially if you wanna live long
@Pascal Simioli That’s only if you stream. Good balanced diet reduces stress and makes you feel better in your own body. Now you can utilize that for your success or not its up to you.
@Ethan The Boss You're demonstrably wrong considering every streamer eats fast food garbage. Ninja got reach without a healthy diet.
Chicken hearts and stomachs in broth are actually very delicious, and we tend to have stews with them a few times a year!
I'm also very fond of well done beef liver, as was out cat, though she always ate hers only slightly cooked.
I have an iron deficiency and I eat liver basically whenever possible. It's definitely not my favorite food, but I notice that I feel way better after doing so
I love giblets whenever we have a turkwy or whole chicke. I cook up the giblets with some garlic and butter and they are delicious. The texture is what I think most people wouldnt get past. If you take a package of chicken hearts and gizzards and boil them or even better pressure cook them then lightly bread and fry they can be some of the best tasting things you'll every eat. Combined with how they are usually extremely cheap because otherwise they are thrown out at the store it can be a great and cheap food.
Where I live liver is considered a really tasty part of the meat, its usually prepared with BBQ sauce
Liver is my favorite part of adobo (vinegar-braised)
I've never tried to cook liver myself, and I've never tried raw liver, but we would sometimes get a liver stew in school, which I found quite tasty. I was basically the only one, but still. Also very popular in Sweden is liver paste or liver paté. I've never been too fond of the classical solid one you cut into slices, but in modern times we have spreadable liver paste, give me some of that on top of some butter on my sandwich any day of the week. Makes sense that a relatively young and wealthy country like the US don't have the same history of experimenting with foods, finding out as many possible ways of using as much of an animal as possible and preparing it for long time storage, but I've met way too many Americans who won't even try to expand their culinary world view with some of these things that has stood the test of time not necessarily because we still need to, but because people just find it tasty.
steak and kidney pie is actually something we eat here in England and its pretty popular.
@Derpy Duck The USA 🤣 "greatest country on earth" 🤣 that's a funny one.
@Esmee Campbell It has so far, there's a reason we're the best country on earth and you......have a bell tower? I guess?
Steak and kidney pie is delicious, so are others like Haggis, Liver and onion, I do enjoy me some English foods, cornish pasty, fish and chips with mushy peas etc are all pretty tasty...I am Naga Indian and so our diets can be full of spices and chillies, but it gets to a point where its too much, it can be any dish chicken curry, mutton curry, beef curry, vegetable curry, too many times they get so heavy with spice and chillies that you cant even taste the meats or veggies...I love the use of less spices in traditional English/western foods, like for example a nice steak, just season with a bit of salt, you can actually get to savour the texture and tender juicy meat, you get the real flavour of the meat.
But it's cooked
@cynicalobserverAnd their food sucks in general
i've actually tried both liver and heart and I realy like the taste of it and have eaten it once in a while ever since.
Liver can be really good if prepared properly. Here in Egypt they cut it into really thin slices cook it on high heat and not for too long with onions and peppers . Put in a bread if you wanna put tahini you can add tahini. It's really tasty . The reason for this method is to avoid the rubbery after taste of it. Reason why we cut it really thin .
In Italy we use liver to cook sometimes! Its quite good! But yeah, not everyone like same stuffs, definitely not raw ahahah
I got a Theory I’m super curious about. Why is sprite and 7up sick stomach reliever, I know why ginger ail helps but why lemon lime soda??? Is the stomach relief just in our heads??
#foodtheory
I suspect it is the slight acidic taste combined with sugar. The assumption is that when you are feeling sick, you have eaten something spoiled and your stomach tries to empty itself. And it gets suspicious about any food it's offered. Acidity protects food from spoiling, so it is easier to trust and the taste is recognisable to actual food. Body also gets desperate for energy (so sugar) and fluids. Caffeine has a slight bitter taste, which body tends to recognise as suspicious, so caffeinated sodas aren't as good. So, it is fluid with sugars that your body is absolutely craving, added with acid that isn't a result of fermentation and a little fresh scenting flavour. Bit of placebo effect or possibly the result of everything else giving a nocebo effect.
The stevia leaf in it relieves it. There's nothing bad in sprite or 7up, they have carbonated water which may make you gassy but overall good.
Here in Ireland liver is still very popular and steak and kidney pie is a staple food. I cannot prepare kidneys at all because of the ammonia smell (urine 🤢) and I can't eat meat myself (medical condition) my husband loves liver and I get it often 🤷
I wish the giblets were still inside the chicken here though because they make a great stock and also my dogs love them
Next thing I'm gonna start hearing Matpat talk about food-based Multi-level marketing schemes and their celebrities who endorse them.
I love liver, As long as the outside is peeled first.
YOU HAVE TO PEEL LIVER?!
@Liam Lowenthal she makes good videos and while i dont always see things on her level and see it different once in a while i appreciate her content
He wouldn't be the first - Illuminaughti does a great job at doing those. :)
I love chicken livers.
Watch out you might manifest it into reality like matpat and the fans shark book.
there is this really deliceous german spread that i eat sometimes called liverwurst and you just spread it on toast or whatever you like and as the name suggests it's made out of liver (i think pig livers?) and so if you wanna eat more liver, i guess that's one way you can :)
Related to the video.
Here in Mexico it's quite common to consume the organs and body parts of animals that could be considered disposable. People eat the chicken's feet, liver and heart. The same goes for the pigs, lamb and cow. In fact, there's a dish called "pancita" which is the stomach of a lamb or cow cooked in a broth and sometimes served with other organs. Also the tongue of the cow is cooked and eaten, apparently is quite a tender meat if cooked correctly (commonly in boiling water or steamed).
So glad to see Danny Gonzalez in a MatPat video, his content is great
I see nothing wrong with liver :( I love eating it. One of my favorite foods
I'm Asian (specifically Malaysian) markets regularly sell other organs of a chicken because it's regularly eaten, throw it in a soup and boom nice tasting heart, livers, intestines, it doesn't taste that bad after a while and actually tastes nice
As someone who has recently acquired a taste for chicken and cow liver (Well cooked of course.) I was sad when I heard they throw the stuff out in the US. What are you doing man? These stuff taste good (If cooked right) .
@Catherine Baldwin Try saying that to my mother, she’s amazing at cooking and preparing chicken liver!
I know right?! Cooked chicken liver tastes so great, why would anyone throw such delicacy away? Such a waste of perfectly fresh cooking ingredients for an amazing meal, jeez.
@zarplex2003 I don't eat meat no more due to personal reasons, but I heavily promote wild sustainable hunting and consumption of more parts of the animal body. And I agree, it isn't popular which is unfortunate
@JT Plays not everything, skin/hide is used for leather and like chicken feathers aren't used for food either. Only time I had seen someone eat chicken feathers was in that food modification video. Also I'm talking about us eating it rather than an animal we will probably eat again later. Not dogs and cats for most territories since most of us won't eat dogs and cats. But animals like cows that we do feed them parts that we can just consume instead. Plus more nutrients to us. This going to the same trophic level wastes some of the energy and time needed to make the parts and we cycle it back in when it can directly benefit us, but some cultures have just changed to not want to consume it anymore, even though it is viable and healthy to consume.
I love these videos. I’ve been watching these videos for the better part of a decade. I have a Morty theory: What fruit is the best at keeping the doctor away? (Which fruit is the best for preventing infection?)
Matpat and the team should do a food theory on comparing different influencer ways of “getting fit” and see if they’re actually legit and what parts they’re leaving out or glorifying and compare the results
It's funny how he said himself later on that he was spending 11,000 dollars a month on steroids
I love liver!
But properly cooked with a dash of butter, and topped with a ton of parsley.
If you never tried it, go ahead.
Don't turn the heat too high in your pan, and cook evenly.
You can cut in half to check.
The raw liver is dark red glossy, the cooked liver dark red mat.
And the outer will be brown.
Oh, and don't throw the cooking juices off! It's wonderful with bread!
Just damp a piece of bread in it just after serving, this "pain jus" is delicious too!
Liver has a sugary taste to it when correctly cooked, and it's due to it's function an an organ.
It being soft and easy to chew, I don't understand why children don't like it (well, except when parents scream at their children of course, who could have guess...)
ok so, having lived in turkey since the year i turned 1 y/o i have eaten countless of liver and its rpetty good so its not a torture after all and i urge you to try it :)
It's quite interesting seeing Matt's take on the whole raw meat thing, especially the economic side of it, I myself am asian and has grown up eating more organ meat than muscle cuts mainly due to my family and culture heavily prefers the variety of ways organ meat can be cooked over muscle meat, the video's been very eye opening to me as an outsider looking in to the western world
@Krista Jones Interesting. I feed my cats a raw food diet and I can still find things locally at that price. Granted though, there’s a large amount of immigrants where I live and because there’s so many shops that offer it, the prices get competitive.
@Shmeepness I used to eat a lot more organ meats about a decade ago. I could get organic grass-finished beef heart for $2.50US/lb. But when people started feeding their dogs raw diets, the price went way up. Beef heart more than doubled.
Yeah I was so confused in him saying that organ meat is more expensive when it’s literally what poor people eat when they can’t afford meat. He mentions that most of the organ meat goes to waste anyway so I don’t get why they’re so expensive. I feel like it would make much more of a profit to sell it to a lower price for poorer people considering it doesn’t taste that good than high price for rich people who I doubt most would be into that type of meat.
Even to this day he still looks a bit like Tim Allen lol. Also great video thank you for talking about this, I didn’t think liver and heart has all that nutrition
Bro this guy needs to make a video bout weight gain/loss diets. Bros content is fire
I don't do it often, but everytime I can easily get my hand on heart and liver I chop it, throw some onions in a pan and fry those organs, they are way to delicious 🤤
Thank you Matt Patt thank you, thank you and your amazing team for making this. 🎤 drop
I thought he was going to take on "Big sugar" with this one. You'd think young people would benefit hearing about that big food conspiracy before they all get fatty liver disease.
My problem with liver King isn't even his lack of science (though that's also bad), it's the fact that he is well aware that the men that he is targeting have anxiety and depression- and yet he is still selling a lifestyle that is not only unattainable, but isn't real in the first place. That's where I draw the line.
He is fully aware that he is taking advantage of people and yet doesn't care enough to stop doing it. That's not primal behavior, people are meant to stick together. That's just being a hypocrite and a jerk ☹️
that's a sterotype and while it may be good if he could help teens in such a situation I seriously doubt he actually is.
I think that was the real point of this video
If man is the evolutionary peak, then the ultimate apex predator preys on men.
The carnivore lifestyle is real and a lot of people do it. Just...not like this lmao
Also, the paleo lifestyle is a thing and it more closely resembles what he's trying to do.
The main question on my mind is, What is the bioavailability percentage of iron in liver
I live in the southeast US and I know a lot of people who like eating chicken livers, and we sell them and chicken hearts at the grocery store I work at. Also a local chicken restaurant sells fried chicken livers and my mom loves them.
The throwback to Powerthirst was freaking 100% gold! Let me just prepare my energy legs.
Aye yo, I know the editors had LOTS of fun with this one! Keep it up guys
While I wouldn’t eat raw beef or chicken liver, I certainly enjoy them cooked from time to time. BTW I like venison heart as well. 😉
as a French person i absolutly LOVE liver. i didn't knew it was hated by so many people '--' with a garlic-butter sauce and NOT over-cooked (like the woman feeding her child you showed) it is delicious and soft!

I used to eat liver and kidneys(cooked thank you very much) and my mom used to make it delish but then I turned 8 and figured out what the kidneys did🤢The steroids thing was pretty obvious, I mean look at him. His veins are the size of worms😂
This Guy's work ethic is unmatched!
I like fried liver (w onions !) and chicken legs / heart in soup is pretty good too. But RAW??? Insane.
As someone from Eastern Europe, I'm used to eating liver. And it's supereasy to cook, takes only 2-3 minutes of frying. I also like eating chicken hearts. They are sold here...
There's a lot of meat that you can eat raw, as long as it's prepared properly and cleaned well. Even for chicken, the Japanese eat raw chicken as sashimi
but those are tested for salmonella and raised under proper conditions, not factory farmed. it is similiat to wagyu beef cows
As a fan of watching copious amounts of cooking shows, I just wanted to mention the overlooked opportunity of mentioning that dishes like carpaccio and beef tar-tar are still 'technically' cooked by chemical means such as acid from lime, lemon etc or other ingredients that reduce bacteria...
We do the same with Thai Laab/Larb it’s actual French inspired so it’s basically just southeast Asian tartare. Minus the raw egg.
That said this dish like matpat said is a special occasion dish where it’s only made right after killing a cow or fish.
The everyday version you get at a Thai restaurant is cooked (medium to well done) and I would not recommend trying raw laab from a restaurant unless there’s some killer reviews for it or you’re extremely adventurous/bold.

Like Mexican ceviche (soaked in lime) and prosciutto (salt cured and aged)
I found it interesting that he put ecology on the chicken and salmonella on the beef when the bacteria is more commonly found on the opposite you can get salmonella from beef but it’s rare usually you get ecoli same with chicken
Man is spitting out actual facts.
Beef and Chicken are sometimes served raw in Japan. It's rare but they do it there. Their safety standards are so high that they can do that.
