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! 👊
*Dont_Read_My_Names!* .
Yep
Yeah baby
Ok
Lol bots out here multiplying again, youtube
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."
Yes, this. Organ meats are only good for you when consumed in moderation.
probably cause it's rare?
@@gamerdweebentertainment1616 Yes, vitamin and mineral overdose is rare. Because consuming organ meat is fairly rare. Unlike Liver King's supposed advice which is to make it an absolute primary component. Which would vastly increase vitamin and mineral overdose chances.
Not as relevant as the fact that eating them raw is insane lol
@Fewer Options But even in those parts, they're not eating it every day in massive quantities like this guy is telling you to do.
So, actual "ancestral" people would've probably laughed at this guy for not cooking his food lol.
Even those who didn’t have fire at the time- knew that there were some parts you DID NOT EAT RAW. You can usually eat raw meat if it’s directly from a just dead animal.
Even they would be laughing their asses off
Most did cook their food to a certain extent
There is a reason we evolved gag reflexes and why fire was an important discovery after all.
@@backtoklondike true that
Well... if you go ancestral enough, people would probably eat the stuff raw. You know, before fire was a thing.... On the other hand... a LOT of them can only laugh as ancestral ghosts, because they dropped dead from consuming raw organs and all the nasty surprises that come with it.
I mean... it's a miracle how people promote lifestyles from times, when we had the average lifespan of a squid in a blast furnace.
I grew up eating liver and onions as a kid, I didn't realize why till I was an adult. We were so poor that my dad would bring home let over liver from the factor where he worked and since we didn't have much food liver and onions were filling and nutritional
And no that wasn't legal and he could've gotten into allot of trouble if he got caught but I appreciate that he did everything he could to keep us (me and my two brothers) full
Liver with onions and apple is a normal dish so...
Liver is good!
A W father you have. I'm kinda jelly.

The sad thing is that there is a group of people (the depressed young men mentioned in the video) who are looking for help but are getting scammed by this dude instead.
Yeah it's so sad 😞
That's why Andrew Tate is better. He is a strong rich man who constantly bashes depressed men for not getting off their asses and accomplishing better things in life. He proves he can be rich because he has a strong mind and body and never stops trying to improve.
@@funveeableyeah and he’s also a human trafficker LMFAO
@@Booxheadits not been proven yet
@@funveeable I would find more people with that mindset without being very controversial and polarising.
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
Probably cause that’s what he’s branded himself as, and what his editors are the most comfortable/most efficient with making.
If you go through the Game Theory catalogue and look closely you’ll notice different changes in the way the animations and editing was done.
Especially when Ronnie was the chief editor. He would create small animations relevant to what Mat was talking about.
May he rest in peace. ;_;

thus you and your dad are more ancestral than the liver king. congrats!
@@grimmsoul3096 Thank you! Truly an honour to know that by historical standards, I succeed more at the very thing The Liver King has built his whole brand around.
@@gayspaghetti3374howd they tastw anyways? Always heard liver was awful lol
@@XonixDerps It honestly depends how it's cooked and what you cook and eat it with. If you use the right herbs or spices, and the correct amount of them, and right amount of salt, it actually tastes quite nice. Plus balancing it out with the right veg or sauce does wonders as well.
I'd recommend looking up different recipes online and trying what you think would taste best!
@@XonixDerpsfrom where I'm from, you can even buy liver spread (processed and cooked) from the supermarket and eat it with bread. It's creamy and savory and can be used as an ingredient in other dishes.

@@spongecakes1986 true

I'd pay to see this

Lol
I dont know where Matpats gonna get the steroids but cant wait for this lmao
That would be amazing
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.
That seems to be what's going on. All these personas that young men look up to are teaching them things that in the long run will make their life and the lives of other people around them worse. It's exactly like unrealistic beauty standards for women, only with harmful ideologies and a superiority complex.
EXACTLY right. guys like this are literally just to young men what the Kardashians were to teen girls ten years ago, right down to the fake 'natural' bodies. They are willing to do insane amounts of long-term harm to profit off impressionable followers admiration and lifestyle envy, it's really gross
Andrew Tate helps more people than liver boy lmao
@@garyp3644 yeah, help them become abusers or rapists.
Wow that’s a looong stretch.. it’s doubtful that anyone takes liver king seriously.
My mother always hated liver and other organs and when she was pregnant with me, her iron levels were so low, she would get dizzy and vomit a lot more than usual. It even got so bad she was throwing almost everyday and had to be rushed to the hospital because she couldn't breathe. The funny thing was the doctors told her that she either had to have iron shots or eat a lot of liver. Needless to say, she chose the latter option. And the funnier thing is that i love fried liver.
Likely because the flavors of it were embedded into your mind as a fetus.
Literally when this dude showed up he made sense all the way up to when he said raw. Literally the first rule in cooking is make sure that it’s cooked properly. Anyone who pauses to think knows he speaks in half truths
I have never heard of this guy, and that opening clip already made me feel skeptical about his ways of achieving good health.
Yeah I only heard of him recently when he was exposed for using TONS of steroids while claiming his body was "all natural". Was watching some video on it and they mentioned he was the owner of ancestral supplements and I was like oh hey! I have those on my shelf!
Funny thing is, the supplements work really well (at least for me). But I never had ambitions to look like a body builder and live in a mansion and was instead trying to fix a few health issues... Why ruin a good thing by selling some impossibly fake ideal when the reality is good enough?
Yeah just looking at him I could tell whatever he's doing is not natural or healthy. Even hardcore bodybuilders don't have that look unless they're juicing, and if he's using steroids then nothing else he says has a shred of credibility
I didn't know about him until Danny Gonzalez did a video on him and tried to replicate his lifestyle to see what would happen. The poor man was super tired all of the time. Not just because of diet, but because of how he was supposed to sleep.
I have only heard of him after he was already caught using steroids by channels like philp defranco and internet today
@@skyfiresage5980 And yet, he still has his defenders.
I genuinely laughed when Matpat said “you can tell he’s sincere because he did it from atop his throne”😂

Part of me forgets that MatPat is an actual scientist, with a degree in Neuroscience and mathematics and stuff like that… my man doesn’t get to show that off in his game theory videos anymore, but with food theory he’s like… actually making content around this stuff.
In Korea we have a raw beef dish called 육회 (closest English translation being meat sashimi, with 회 being the korean equivalent of sashimi), and some people eat it pretty regularly, but it’s strictly regulated. the meat needs to be tested for bacteria, kept under a certain temperature, prepared and served under a time limit, and have the outer layer cut off with sterilized tools (using multiple boards because you need to remove the side on the cutting board separately) which is…. Not what this guy (and people on other raw meat diets) seem to be doing lol
Additionally!! it doesn’t make up whole meals by itself. It’s usually served alongside rice, and even when it’s eaten by itself it has vegetables and other stuff mixed in, you can’t just…. Chow raw meat every day and call that a meal
guaranteed the US regulatory agencies arent as thorough and trustworthy as the koreans
I ain’t readin all dat
@@G00VRit's just hilarious because us Asians are stereotype to be smaller on average yet we eat the most innards. But hey, cults can start over anything.
steak and kidney pie is actually something we eat here in England and its pretty popular.
but it is cooked food as opposed to raw food, which is nasty
Liver, kidney and heart are super cheap in places like Tesco. Lamb hearts will set you back about £2.50 for 3-4 depending on size and it tastes like the muscle meat because it is. If you can get past how they look (because they do look exactly as you think they will) they're tasty and will save you a boatload for your family.
Yeah but UK still believes in the monarchy. So English recommendations are dubious

To be fair, most of the weirdest foods were discovered by people literally starving.
From what little I have learned, I'm pretty sure that COOKED FOOD helped us evolve and get bigger and bigger brains by removing bacteria and enhancing the nutrients of the meat.
It’s a theory but I don’t believe it’s proven. We are perfectly well adapted to cooked meat though, it’s not a concern to eat cooked if you prefer it. Just don’t burn it.

This was really interesting to me! My mom is a huge foodie, she’s willing to try everything. But the one thing she absolutely hates is liver. She was fed to it as a kid by her mom (my grandmother) under the belief that it was healthy for the cholesterol reasons mentioned in this video. My mom will never eat liver again simply for the fact that she just hates the taste of it, but she does believe it was also an unhealthy thing to eat due to the cholesterol thing being disproven. But it is really interesting to learn how it actually is healthy, just not in the ways people in the 60s were marketing it. It’s really fascinating how food science evolves over the decades and how that also influences what is and isn’t a popular dish in modern culture.
I truly love your channel. Keep doing the best work.
Such creative videos you’ve on this channel. Just subscribed!

Love this video, I think I’ve watched it four times.
Please do an episode on why we can eat more dessert when we're full.
My theory is that desserts are calorically dense (lots of energy) which makes are caveman brains happy but they aren’t nutritionally dense (hard to digest) since they’re usually just refined carbs which break down easily.
Plus they’re tasty and there’s the novelty of eating something new when you’ve already had a ton of something else, so our brains and bodies are in agreement.
W I L L P O W E R
I thought it was because humans evolved eating a super varied diet rather than a single thing (in order to get more nutrients) so we can get sick of eating the same thing until I new thing is put in front of us
it's because sugar actually increases your apetite
Basically, what happens is that we do actually always have room for dessert. The way the body processes fullness is pretty relative, and desserts are incredibly calorically dense, so when your body sees it, it wants it, it wants to store all those tasty tasty calories so it can survive. If you keep stuffing yourself with meat and veggies, you'll feel full but without feeling full, why? Because your body already has what it needs now so it doesn't want more. But, for more calorically dense, and as such more long term useful, the body is NOT kin to throwing that out, it's a portable calories storage unit. So, it makes room, it suppresses the sensation of satiety and lets you keep eating so you can stuff yourself with more life saving energy.
I don’t know why but when you said “ I’m not a doctor” I expected a Food Theorists/Doctor Mike collab
That sounds like a really cool collab. I'd love to see that sometime!

here in the Philippines, there's a number of local dishes that uses livers, intestines, and some other organs that most people in other countries would avoid, so I guess majority of people that don't eat it come from the states

@@Tyron764 and also you don't eat them often, eating them TOO often may cause an overdose from the sheer amount of vitamins so alot of differences, i should know, i'm from Indonesia, we also eat organs
@@Tyron764 Filipinos (my dad included) tend to either cook it or overcook it
Probs, unless you’re from the South. A lot of folks I’ve met who have eaten sweetbreads and other organs grew up on farms, or were raised by people who grew up on farms. They were butchering their own animals, and decided waste not want not, including the genitals, and the brain (which is the only organ I can’t accept as being ok to eat. Not because it’s gross, it just feels way more unsafe, because of all the diseases you can get from eating brains, the kind of diseases that are really hard to heal from because it’s literally messing with the base prions in your person. Not mad-cow disease per say, but close, and it just skeeves me out to no end. I don’t stop people, but I do question why they do it, because it’s one of the few organs I know of that can do that to a person if eaten.).
Seems everyone eats organs except for Europe and America
Actually, in Iran we eat liver and heart as food, we roast it and then serve it with bread, I had it a lot during trips around
the caveman that found fire and invented cooking:
up here in Greenland, we eat liver and hearts, the amount of nutrition it help in the colder weather, really helps
of course not raw, cooked, heck i even consider them really tasty
Considering what Greenland's ancestors lived like during the Viking era, you're _actually_ "ancestral living" when eating (cooked) organ meat! They used all they could to survive the harsh land.
Anything edible can be tasty if you prepare it right.

Heart and liver are great when cooked right, and I never thought it wasn't common to eat them even though I live in the US
@JessCrimson my father always cooked the tukery giblets, and it was like a special treat. I liked the heart a lot and I liked the liver in small ammounts .
An easy way to eat liver is to add it to a stew or soup, before you boil the stew/soup. If you don't want it into soup or stew, you need to let it rest in milk in the fridge for at least a few days, and I don't think the milk is safe to eat afterwards, even after boiling, but I feel that boiling it enough should make the milk edible, too, especially if used in a sauce or gravy afterwards, but feel free to correct me. Edit: Also, in parts of the world with iron deficiency in their diet (especially for poor people), boiling a piece of iron in their soup, then removing it from the soup, washing it clean, and storing it for the next soup, is one way to get the trace amounts of iron in the diet which would keep you from getting anemia or other illnesses caused by lack of iron in the diet. Same for the rock soup, during famine times, with river rocks, the trace amounts of minerals released from boiling should be enough to prevent some illnesses, but it's recommended to sterilize both the iron and the stone by boiling it in water before adding it to the boiling stew/soup. *MatPat, please make a video about this and other similar things which could be used, as well as things which shouldn't be used.*
Really well put together video man.
Food theory idea how long can you survive on only chicken nuggies and gfuel ?
@@Okeyy.. man you are the bot

We don't entirely throw it all away, but yeah I'm on your side I wish it was more main stream here. It's so good
@@longdonpiano would be much a vibe that we use every single part of the animal rather than just some parts and leave the rest for other stuff like compost or other stuff that isn't actual food.
I'm from India and chicken liver is a staple in most parts of the country. When combined with Indian spices and cooked properly, it results in an amazing curry!
I don’t eat meat if I can (I try to eat as vegan as possible but I’m not strict) but I have always been irritated by western food norms. I remember growing up and wishing that I was raised to eat organs, hooves and feet, every part of the animal, because if we are going to slaughter it to sustain ourselves, we should use all of it. That doesn’t apply to me personally so much anymore but I staunchly believe that’s the best option out there. People are probably always going to consume meat, might as well go for every edible part you can, right?
Man I love your channel your editing is off the chain
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
Chicken hearts are actually a bit expensive here in Brasil. It's not technically the most noble part of the chicken, but it's quite there. I also do like onions and liver, but it was an acquired taste
And let's be honest, that is the best part of the chicken
Não sei pq respondi em inglês kakakaka
Brazilian here adding to the comment for all the gringos. Chicken heart is really popular here, both as street food and at family barbecues. It's also really tasty, y'all should definitely try it since it's cheaper over there
Mas sério 6 já viram como os gringos fazem churrasco? É meio patético
Yeah chicken heart is delicious but the best is still dove heart.
Btw we also eat cow tounge but it's the acquired taste here in Germany. (Of course cooked)
in Germany it's 2,50€ (13,91 BRL) for 350g (0,77lbs) of fresh chicken hearts.
it's kinda weird, if u leave them whole, but chopped up and roasted, mhh....
Liver from the local viet market is like 2 bucks a pound at MOST. it's crazy how much they're trying to charge for liver now that it's a fad diet.
I find 100000 dong kg
I work in a butcher shop and now they’re selling heart for $12 a lb. It’s ridiculous
Previous to all of this, I could buy a the innards for the dogs at prices where they were basically giving it away, but now the store's charging as much for a heart as they are for steak. Then again, in a world where even eggs are like $6 a dozen, I guess that's not shocking.
@@kyplaygaming honestly this is a market adjustment. Organ meats have long been undervalued and are now priced more properly. Heart probably should cost as much as ribeye.
@@Riku1302 is that a lot of dong or a little dong?
in the northwestern turkish city of edirne, they have a liver dish which is basically liver thinly sliced, breaded and pan-fried, and its absolutely amazing. even if you don't like liver, you'll really love that.
Great stuff. There’s some other factors to consider how safe it is to eat raw meat.
One is how fresh the meat is. High end restaurants that are getting their meat straight from the butcher and not letting it sit in the fridge too long are taking a much smaller risk since bacteria will have less time to develop.
The other is preparation. It’s not uncommon to trim or even sear the outside of a cut of meat when preparing a dish like beef tartare or carpaccio. If the working environment is clean the you’re effectively taking the same risk as eating a rare steak.
This doesn’t apply to every meat though, as far as I’m aware it’s never a good idea to risk this with chicken. Maybe it’s the same with organs too?
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...
Like Mexican ceviche (soaked in lime) and prosciutto (salt cured and aged)
Link to the Clip :- They finally released this

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.
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.
if he can get people to understand why you shouldn't trust em then im all for it.
too many of them use made up terms and claims they are backed by "Medical Researchers" that their products are real.
Watch out you might manifest it into reality like matpat and the fans shark book.

@@liamlowenthal8476 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
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.
It's great that these 4 theory channels have taught me more then school has. Thanks Matpat.

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 ☹️
couldnt agree more
If depressed teens can better themselves listening to him, that’s a good thing.
Great point, and well said
He’s selling people a dangerous lifestyle by telling them to eat raw meat.
Maybe I’m wrong but it seems like no one had any issue with Liver King until they found out he was secretly taking steroids which he wasn’t even actively telling people to use I’m not defending his steroid use sense he was lying about how he got muscles but it seems like most people completely overlooked him telling others to eat raw meat which is strange to me.
@@jinx5673 He doesn't want to help them get better. He prays on depressed teens and makes them believe that if they buy his overpriced product they will look like him. The thing is he takes steroids to look like that, naive teens weren't aware of that
As a European when he said an ice bath was 30 degrees I was very confused 😂
I can’t go outside
Why? Are you okay?
I'm so glad he mentioned the evolutionary aspect. The idea that our ancestors are dumber, simpler, and less human than us and were a-okay with eating raw food is insane. They eat raw food for the same reasons we do: cuz it's an experience or because there's no other option. We evolved to cook and cooking helped us evolve.
Exactly! And the ancestors that couldn’t cook (hadn’t figured fire yet) would leave things to dry or eat the raw meat IMMEDIATELY after the animal was killed cause they knew if you waited too long you’d die
@@Ax-xo4ux Exactly. Even before fire, primitve humans "cooked" food through drying, ageing, pickling, and fermentation for a long time. It was the last step towards cooking with fire.
@@Ax-xo4ux, they'd also watch other animals eat meat and recognize which parts are meant to be eaten, and which parts are not.
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!

1:39 I like the powerthirst reference you did here
the question that remains for me after watching this video:
Since you highlighted the nutritional value of organ meat and the dangers of raw meat.
How beneficial would be a diet primarily focused on COOKED organ meat?
"kidneys and liver were popular a hundred years ago' me a Brit having eaten a steak and kidney pie yesterday 🤣
I mean...true, but you also got kebaps and curries now too. S&K pie was a staple 100 years ago because it HAD to be, now you have choice and variety which gives you access to a wider set of nutrients.
@@drfarrin A good steak and kidney pie is still good.... but a part of a varied diet of course.
@@drfarrin kidney and liver are SO tasty tho. They're at least equal to kebab for me, and once pied, preferable. Cultural conditioning :D
As a Brazilian, there's always some internet discussion about whether liver steaks are good or not.
I personally love it, when done properly (and with onions).
I think he was talking about America, from what you can see in the comments there’s a bunch of Americans freaking out over toxicity.
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!
@DeathWolf121212 honestly it depends on how you cook it...I'm not the big fan of livers and organs...my grandma is though and likes the heart and liver of the turkey....cooked obviously
If I smell a liver i want to puke y'all are capping
@@beanmasterz Yeah, we cook it and use spices, we don’t eat it raw.
This isn’t America.
@@Silver_wind_1987_ Well, in other places outside of the USA, we put spices and cook the organs to be tasty. It’s really good, if you ever go out, especially to Egypt, try ut iyt.
Why do people want to go back to times where humanity objectively had it worse? I hate how he’s using men’s depression to sell his unhealthy lifestyle
Yeah when ever I see one of these people I have a specific quote I think of “every time you step outside and don’t get mauled to death by a wild animal, you are actively defying nature”
In Iran we grill liver with some salt (usually calf liver) medium rare or well done and eat it with bread. It’s one of the most delicious dishes in Iran and it’s never a punishment. It’s all about knowing how to remove the parts that are not tasty and how to cut and prepare it. Liver cooks really fast so you have to be quick.

Why did I not expect matpat to make a theory on this

Because making a video on the liver king would be literal 🍆 riding and he just forgot that he shouldn't have made it so here we are

5:28 To be fair in many cusines around the world stuff like liver, stomach and heart of an animal are used in various dishes (cooked of course). So I would argue against this.
0:56 or going to psychology, but in that way you maybe actually change behavior or do some internal work, that is the hard part of it
I love so much the irony of Liver King. Touting the Ancestral Life Style in such a way that even Toumai (Sahelanthropus tchadensis) one of the oldest human ancestors ever found, would be looking at him in utter bewilderment. Wondering why this guy is living like a wild animal instead of a man.
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 love steak tartare. It's hilarious people have so many misconceptions about food. Like beef should stay red for weeks after its butchered lmfao
thanks for these amazing videos matpat
Okay, I'm not the whole video yet. But seriously, what's more ancestral than freaking cooking your food. Like that's kind of what makes us different than animals right? That we cook our food? 5:05
A lot of people are covering the liver king at this time, but this is my favourite coverage of him
*Dont_Read_My_Names!* .
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
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.
@@shmeepness1700 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.
@@kristajones7202 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.
Just want to add that well cooked liver is absolutely delicious by the way. The only thing to keep in mind is that you shouldn't expect it to taste like muscle. It has a flavour of it's own, but if you can appreciate this flavour it's an amazingly tasty piece of meat
I agree
yeah man, pâté honestly goes so hard

Wait what? Context?
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?
So liver king released a video a while back where he got people who won a contest to do the barbarian challenge and my step dad loves liver king and won so he trained for months and he drove all the way to Texas to do it
14:18 Technically, some nutrients are lost when cooking but so many more become increasingly accessible that it is worth the trade off.
cooking removes bacteria

In Brazil, a quite common side dish is manioc flour seasoned with small bits of chicken liver, heart, etc. The chicken heart is also quite common in barbeques. I'm not a fan but when correctly done, it is quite good.

I love liver and heart when cooked.
Idk where the "disgusting" taste ppl think comes from
From cooking it wrong. Honest my mother couldn't cook liver properly if her life depended on it. Matpat even mentioned it, that overcoming it and drying it brings out that iron like flavour
I can only eat heart if my dad makes it. He cuts it into strips and pan fries it. Any other person, the concentration of flavor hits me like vomit, which is unfortunate because i enjoy the texture of heart. On top of that I have a texture problem. I need foods with a bite to them otherwise I gag. idk why, all I know is that my reaction to liver is the same with Jello or anything pudding-y, it's weird. Took me years to train myself to eat yogurt.
Maybe it's a genetic variation thing, a bit like with Brussels Sprouts? I actually love the smell of kidney cooking, but cannot stand the taste of it, right down to not being able to eat a steak and kidney pie after the kidney pieces have already been picked out and discarded, because the remains of the pie will still be tainted with the kidney taste.
As an asian person, I grew up eating liver, heart, intestines and pretty much ALL internal organs including testicles, penises, tongues, tails, brains, and eyeballs. We eat the whole animal. Everything tastes good when it's cooked properly. Key word: COOKED. I can't imagine eating any of that stuff raw 🤮
I do too. I always chop it up and pan fry it when it comes with any chicken or turkey I buy, and I don't get why other people don't.

In Austria beuschel is a popular dish you can get in most restaurants and grocery stores and it's made from liver and heart. I'm also sure I saw a can of beuschel yesterday and not a hundred years ago.

You should make a part 2 to this where you discuss the effects of not eating veggies
Agreed
Scurvy? lmao
@@lifenote1943 That's fruit
@@huggable2 You need veggies too bro
@@lifenote1943 Yeah but Scurvy comes from no fruit. I believe. Well no citrus fruit if I remember right.
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.
I agree with the liver part. Mainly chicken liver.
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
@@TheKiasuFelicia sounds... DELICIOUS!
I thought most organ meats in the west weren't actually thrown away, but rather what they turned into hotdogs and similar.
@@blondbraid7986 or given to the dog
Liver and onions is still pretty common in the UK, most supermarkets have it as a ready meal. Most supermarkets also have a variety of offal, heart, kidneys, liver, and even pigs feet in one chain.

As someone with anxiety and depression I don't think eating raw meat would help with that, food is one of the few things I consistently enjoy. Also if you go back in time our ancestors thought that most mental illnesses were people being possessed by evil spirits and would drill holes in your head.

Liver king feels like that uncle who shows up to a family gathering every two years and gives a sip of beer to kids there
As a Bulgarian: liver, tongue and hearts are a common thing to eat and are actually quite good
The best liver was (well, still is) Provimi veal liver. It's liver from milk fed veal and doesn't taste as livery as the regular cow liver.
Problem is, it's gone up so much in cost. I used to remember buying it for $7-8 per pound in Canada... now, it's about $28 per pound 😔
veal is cruel.
@@zeebo30 Ok, time to bust out the hacksaws; we'll eat your liver instead.
@@zeebo30 never had it and don't feel very comfortable eating it
Btw, i was surprised when i saw that animal organs aren't eatten in usa, i mean, it is pretty common in eastern europe
@@zeebo30 And tasty.
I didn't know liver was this disliked in general. My family farms their own cows and the liver is always my most favourite part. I've also seen it a lot at restaurants. Not raw though.
Germany btw.
Yeah, livers are tasty, I don't know why there's such a tabu about them, liver meat is way more tender than regular meat
Eating liver is more common in Europe then in America gues Americans are just picki
They are right about liver though 🤢🤮
The mineral-y flavor is an acquired taste, and it has to be cooked right to be good. Liver has the potential to go very wrong in the hands of a bad cook...
I personally like liver, but it has been used often in movies and TV shows as a disliked food.
if you've been eating it all your life you're much mroe likely to have grown a taste for it. most americans have not grown up eating liver and so to us it does not taste good. think of it like alcohol. when you first try it you probably won't like how it tastes, but after drinking it for a while you get used to it and eventually start to like it. this is just how taste works in general
very well analysed and explained !
I always find this argument funny. "Oh people have been eating raw foods for thousands of years." To this, I say "True, and we only recently started living past 40."
We have lived past 40 for a long time. If not than our genetics wouldn’t have been selected for it. Life expectancy and life span of adults are not the same. Diet was not what killed people early prior to civilization.
Just a small sidenote on walking barefoot: DO NOT WALK ON DIRT WITHOUT SHOES, here in Puerto Rico, people would constantly get parasites until a doctor told the federal government to start giving people shoes, my grandmother still remembers kids who had worms coming out of their noses and other cavities when they opened the first school in her area.
doing it occasionally generally won't come with significant risks (in most parts of the world) the key is don't do it *all the time*. but an occasional barefoot run can be good for the muscles in your feet
Huh? I've literally walked around barefoot for 29 years, and I've never once had any kind of parasite. Maybe it depends on where you live.
Having given myself a mild case of Vitamin A poisoning while experimenting with cooking liver, I paid no attention to any of this when it started. I do appreciate the greater context.

This is the first time I’ve seen this channel and you growl a lot.
I was born to farmers, cattle farmers. My grandma would boil the cow tongue to eat for dinner. It was fun to play with but not much good to eat. Really, I didn’t eat organ meat. We all preferred the good cuts, even though our small Hereford farm was next thing to organic. I will say that you should try to buy beef from the butcher or local farmer if possible, and avoid the plastic big chubs at the major grocery store. You CAN taste the difference.
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.
Technically we evolved to eat plants first, then meat due to the fact that ape ancestors were herbivores and apes can digest meat!
Then you get to horses who are also classed as omnivores since they can digest meat
EDIT: after further research there is no such thing as a “true herbivore”- pretty much every animal can digest meat, they may not eat it or like it but they can digest it. Interesting fact!
@@Ax-xo4ux most herbivores are opportunistic carnivores. Meat is much more nutrient dense, so while they aren’t explicitly predators, most herbivores wouldn’t turn up a free meat bite
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.
Not vegetables, specifically scrawny and thin corn, bad tasting and tiny fruits, and berries that have a 50 percent chance of killing us
@@coledibiase5971 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
Do a follow up food theory on the objectively best way to eat liver (and make it taste good).
Balsamic vinegar and sauteed onions, or fried
Very fresh, fried lightly in butter with ketchup or BBQ sauce.
Paté
Imma give you a tutorial first fry onions untill theyr some what brown then add choped liver you can add hearts too, after the liver gets to a point where it starts "jumping" And poping add seasoning i use paprika both sweet And spicy, chilli powder, garlic powder And dry herbs, then add water let it stew And then thicken it turn of the heat put salt on it And eat, easy cheap and Tasty.
@Doggy pretty easy accualy
I was a very picky child but surprisingly I love liver! Also like chicken gizzards, they're very chewy and delicious when cooked right.
I'm actually VERY impressed at the person posting this video having better knowledge than MOST licensed doctors that cholesterol is not bad for you when you are eating a healthy diet whether it be keto or carnivore type diets. I believe the medical establishment lowered the "healthy" cholesterol levels purposely this past decade to achieve maximum profits with cholesterol medication while at the same time dementia and alzeihmers has gone through the roof which makes sense since 25% of our brain is made up of cholesterol. In addition EVERY cell in our body has cholesterol in the membrane and lastly cholesterol plays a HUGE roll in producing healthy hormones in our body!!! Now it makes total sense that the medical establishment is doing everything they can to suppress cholesterol levels in patients which will ultimately produce some type of chronic illness! Now the one thing that I noticed that is wrong here is the claim of cooking your meat most of the way still leaves all of the nutrients, there is a line that is crossed at some point where heat can destroy vitamins and nutrients so I try to stay around medium rare to minimize the damage done to these vitamins and nutrients. Once you start getting to medium and up, you will destroy some of the vitamins and nutrients which is usually going to be the outside towards the inner depending on how long and how high of temperature the meat got.
