Epic Meal Time – Meat Building 101

When a fan wrote in for advice on making his own epic meal, Epic Meal Time didn’t just send him a recipe or some advice. They sent the whole crew. On this week’s episode of EMT, the crew teams with students from Queen’s University to recreate a campus landmark with meat, ham and bacon. I never thought I’d say this but Queen’s did the damn thing this time. Continue reading

Epic Meal Time – Maximum Protein Experience

The team at Epic Meal Time are back this week with a new meal of epicness. This time, they bring us to their gym where they protein up after their workout. But they don’t make your standard protein bars and protein shakes. They make big-ass protein bars and protein shakes with bacon. They don’t *squawk* around when it comes to their protein. Continue reading

The Best of Like A Little

Let’s add a new site to our ongoing best of the interweb series as an early Christmas gift. The site LikeALittle.com is just a couple of months old but it’s already gone viral. The site allows people to anonymously flirt and connect with random people they meet over the course of the day. The site is broken up by universities so for our first look at Like A Little, let’s look at the best of UWO’s Like A Little page. Continue reading

Epic Meal Time – Fast Food Sushi

The gang at Epic Meal Time took a week off so we’re running a classic EMT episode that we haven’t put on the blog before. In this edition of Epic Meal Time, the crew takes the best items from the menus at McDonald’s, KFC, Taco Bell and Wendy’s, wraps them in bacon and makes fast food sushi. If only all fast food items could come as sushi. Continue reading

How Good Kids Today Have It

The other day, my mom forwarded me this email just so I’d know once again how good I had it growing up. It’s the sort of thing that I figured everyone would get a laugh out of. Continue reading

Epic Meal Time – Chocolate and Hearts

This week, the crew at Epic Meal Time did a special Valentine’s Day episode which was all heart. Well, not all heart. In addition to chicken and lamb hearts, there was chocolate (and bacon). I don’t eat heart so I can’t say I’m a fan of this week’s episode but it’s only appropriate that you cook heart for Valentine’s Day. Continue reading

Epic Meal Time – Tequila Taco Night

This week, Epic Meal Time covers my favourite type of food: Mexican food. With their classic EMT touch, they make tacos, a quesadilla and a giant burrito known as El Gigante. Naturally, there’s pounds upon pounds of bacon, beef, chicken and steak and topped off with lots of Patron tequila. Continue reading

Epic Meal Time – The Sloppy Roethlisberger

Personally, I thought that last week’s Epic Meal Time Super Bowl special was a bit underwhelming. Then they came back with the most epic of epic Super Bowl meals. It’s 20 pounds of bacon, 13 pounds of ground beef and 11 pounds of sausage in a 10 pound bun. Top it with tons of cheese and Jack Daniels BBQ sauce and you have the 50 pound, 138,226 calorie Sloppy Big Ben Roethlisberger. Continue reading
