[@cpunching]

Goes to a seafood restaurant, eats the kids menu chicken tenders first. My god man, that made me crack up.

[@HeadbangersKitchen]

At first I wondered why so many dislikes. Then i watched the video. Painful.

[@braam39]

Headbanger's Kitchen almost like watching one of your videos

[@troybailey1317]

this guy is the reason i get in fights at the bars

[@cristiannuques1718]

Hahaha

[@ufinc]

Dear Eater. This series is a disgrace to your mostly smart and interesting channel. Please discontinue this nonsense. Thank you.

[@mk17173n]

they couldn't find a better half bald comb over fat crossed eyed guy for this video.

[@deader6]

The embrace of gluttony and food waste at the same time.

[@kaded_]

Funny that everyone in the comments has something negative about this series when a couple years later, the Try Guys did the exact same thing and everyone loved it.

[@dogjohn1160]

Yeah man. It was not about what he did. It’s about who he is that matters

[@moistydoooood]

@@dogjohn1160you got a lotta growing up to do if a person who hasn't harmed you in any way gets your blood boiling my man.

[@kicktotheballs]

I love The Boiling Crab. Whenever I'm in LA I hit that place up.

[@eater]

+kicktotheballs Thanks for watching!

[@MsRazorcraft]

You guys need to chill with these comments. He's just trying to make the video more interesting. There's nothing wrong with this series. You probably heard this before but if you truly don't like it. Then just watching something else on this channel

[@lukelee91]

i dont get this idea of eathing the whole menu. he just ends up saying some short phrase before taking the bite. most of them has little to do with the flavor of the food... i really just dont get thesr videos

[@GrowGlow]

can we stop the hate? it's food!

[@greysonwayne1741]

Jenn Choi I saw nothing but guy on this.. haha

[@jessicatarantula5670]

This video would have been great without the obnoxiously impolite and immature guy that did not properly show the food.

[@MaZEEZaM]

Yeah though I think the horrible editing and music had a lot to do with it.

[@tielohnoms]

I don't understand why there's so many dislikes..

[@darrenkohhh]

I love this channel but please remove this section of the channel

[@KhoiBoa]

i Stumple here and this guy funnny as hell.

[@djdanellec]

Why is everyone freaking out about this video? Yes, it's The Boiling Crab... it's not fine dining and doesn't need much explanation. Yes, it's gluttonous. So what? Nobody eats here everyday. The host was fine... stop being so pretentious

[@okcalmdownandbehappy6657]

you are making me hungry ahhh🍙🍙🍘🍱🍤🍤🍤🍣🍣

[@FrankCAroleus]

I really don't know why all the hate for ''Eat the menu''... If you don't like it, simply avoid that part of Eater.

[@traceloops6897]

i love eater. i think it should have millions of views...

[@CaseyMcots]

Remove

[@Vitalstatistix]

The presenter makes the food experience more putoff-ish...

[@alejandrogarcia9612]

I was gonna say thats mean but then i watched the video and dam you right now i feel mean

[@matthewhogan180]

It amazes me that you can have a guy like Lucas Peterson, who is classy and knowledgeable on everything he does, and then you have this clown. Please get rid of him.

[@fmauricea]

Eater, you're better than this. I like your content but this series is pretty awful. You can do better filler videos than these

[@eater]

+fmauricea Glad to hear that you like our content. Please feel free to always reach out with your thoughts. Especially, if you love something. We can always make more of what people are enjoying.

[@fmauricea]

+Eater I love pretty much everything else... Aside from this ☺

[@highdesertsunset3011]

+Eater cool content, focus more on the food and get more interesting host

[@itsthehandle]

Worst production value ROi.

[@itsthehandle]

Did you fire this guy yet?

[@widayatwikanto]

many delicious meals here

[@kafkamirro]

am I the only one who enjoy this?

[@aLoNeXMeX]

The video was funny. I would have liked a little more eating footage

[@selisasymphonique7007]

GIVE ME THE LOCATION OF THIS PLACE lol i live in AUSTRALIA xd

[@YACKYSNACKY]

Very nice.

[@racheltrue8]

The boiling crab mmmm love that place

[@jonlivington9179]

His chicken wing joke was hilarious!

[@charlesknoll6894]

I love every video by eater... Except this, seriously wtf is this?

[@slickboyLA]

Lucas Peterson would've been a better host for this episode.

[@billygowhoop]

how was his shirt clean at the end?

[@wornoutshoes11]

sad to say but there are people no matter what they do... they are simply not watchable... smh

[@raidennaz1590]

my god, the dislike is real

[@happy-trip]

It looks appetizing..

[@Blackdynamite41]

being from Louisiana watching you eat that crawfish was disgraceful 😂

[@nitecruzer]

He should visit the south so he can enjoy some delicious crawfish the right way!

[@asianmaddie6743]

I don't like seafood but I will go for the wings

[@maggisclipsofthemonth3952]

Can you tell me about the prices at the restaurant ?

[@michellepechie55]

Is this LA?

[@buddhathegod]

pft, not even attempting to crack the meat out of the claws from the crawfish what a scrub #kräftskiva

[@stephainerosado2753]

how much is that

[@spikeboy101]

This dude probably pays Eater to let him stuff is 4 stomachs

[@linglee4072]

Why did you pour all the sauce on the king crab leg shell and not on the leg meat that you were going to eat, or did you actually ate the shell? LOL

[@SighGua]

who else saw that crawfish moving

[@oskarfontana1767]

This was torture to watch. now i want to eat those things

[@mayomphueng7804]

woow look nice

[@marlej23]

this movie is just too fast no detail even dont see what he eats

[@ArnettLinn]

Why is everyone hating on the guy?!! Do your thing player!

[@shortythepresident3913]

LMAO - Everything is seasoned the same.

[@jorgerene09]

who eats like that @1:35?!

[@LeadMercury0]

anybody else notice that he is stoned ?

[@shpham8464]

dear eater, please fire this guy

[@theonlygus]

Love the channel but wow this series is useless. Its like watching someone read off the menu with his mouth. No actual useful information provided. What kind of oysters were those? Were they fresh? No substance at all, i want the last 2:30 seconds of my life back.

[@balloutglo1227]

This video makes me want to wash my hands

[@harryc266]

How is this guy married..

[@memadman]

Is he related to Peewee Herman?

[@MaureenKo1]

I've been to one of these crab boil places. Because of the seasonings, all of the fried stuff tastes the same. All of the steamed stuff tastes the same, etc. etc. etc. Their bag boils are just, meh! I'd like to go to one of these places (3 where I live) where they do a drawn butter portion, a cajun seasoning portion and a garlic portion separately but charge you for 1 order and not make you pay ala carte. Because if I wanted my lobster tasting like my shrimp, I could throw it into the same pot and do it myself at home.

[@Pryraful]

CRIIIIINGE!!

[@chefmike9945]

Hahaha

[@riskbusin3ss]

Dude this is most famous westcost seafood place, please try to add more effort in your video...

[@maplebroa]

"There is no end to the gluttony that is possible" (2:08). You sure are living up to those words. I get that Eater is trying to feel out what the audience may or may not like. That's fine. But this show's formula just isn't that good. If you want to showcase an entire menu, have the host speak with the restaurant owner and go over what the restaurant has to offer instead of taking one bite of everything and leaving the audience to assume all the wood is wasted.

[@jasonaumua1880]

Pototes

[@Mikie0607]

Damn, this guy is just a little bit out there. Too much.

[@Okutox]

too much sauce......maybe its the new Englander in me talking though, I always felt you're over compensating for low quality seafood by overseasoning

[@jongpark9754]

Boiling Crab was honestly pretty awful. Maybe that's because I am Korean and prefer more traditionally Asian style seafood, but I thought the crawfish wasn't worth eating, the shrimp was overcooked, and everything was too messy to be anything more than glorified bar food.

[@GroguSlayer69]

At leat eat a f onion you need it man

[@jacobleb420]

So he speed reviewed everything but did none of them justice. What a waste of food, he literally took one bite of each thing and said it was good while barely describing it. Why didn't he just order their most popular items then do a detailed review on why anyone should bother to go there?

[@MaZEEZaM]

All that seafood must have cost a fortune 🐸

[@iLoveTurtlesHaha]

You guys really make some awful videos. I mean I have never seen so many videos from a channel with a huge dislike ratio. Are you guys unsure on what topics to make? You must be making it up as you go along. Almost all your hosts are annoying. Your dining on a dime series is great, well only with Lucus, and your informative videos like "what does it take to raise oysters" are really good. Why don't you stick to those? You can clearly see the likes to dislike ratio on those videos are on the positive side. Anyway, just my opinion, do what you want, I'm sure your subscribers will decide whether they want to watch your stuff or not.

[@jomartyn8789]

Eater is like a beautiful lobster tail dipped in garlic butter. This series is, in the words of Gordon Ramsay, the 'shitsack'.

[@mechanicalDave]

Jor Martyn jeremy clarkson be like "i never taken that OUT!"

[@francescavillapando8919]

you can enjoy and eatvit normally not beast out and get a good review on it. 😶

[@josetgodoy6973]

Dear eater, please whip your hands when eating new foods.

[@PoorBoyzify]

Why would you get seafood in LA? If you're going to get seafood on eater GO to Louisiana or Alabama. Jesus....

[@eater]

He lives in LA, thanks for watching!

[@1934853]

Yeah, definitely not a fan of this series, very different content from your other videos

[@quangpod]

This host is pretty bad.

[@laaaaaance]

i love boiling crab but wow this guy is so annoying to watch

[@CaseyRuleMusic]

This "Eating Everything" series is definitely the low point of this channel. All your other content is great, but this is truly hard to watch.

[@WhereToFind]

this is terrible...how could you eat oyster at boiling crab and not even use their g sauce ..shame on you

[@Ganjasmith]

this guy is dead

[@MMEarlene]

what am i watching? i love eater but i hate this series

[@joslynhouston5842]

Wait...what is so wrong with this guy...sounds to me someone is hating on this man and some of their friends are coming along for the ride..IDK but its not that bad and it seems strange how EVERYBODY dislikes the video...its not that bad. Watch your back somebody is coming for your spot...

[@jinseihoshi9360]

thats disgusting! what a waste of animals for such a thing

[@ex0550]

It's food dumbass

[@pault2897]

Out of all the Eater series I have watched, this is the worst. Awkward presematopm/

[@blank38]

Farley is awful. Get someone else.

[@asusasus5277]

i dont like him.

[@touchmycamerathroughthefence]

fried catfish :0

[@artchatkoo9156]

I might unsubscribe on principle after this video. Smh...

[@biohazardgaming6482]

Dear eater, this guy is way too arrogant and cocky. I suggest u discontinue making videos with him.

[@PrajayMehta]

please stop

[@arnelnugraha6055]

i want peterson!

[@ytsm21]

Eater, most of your other content is excellent, so did not expect this from you guys. This is a serious dip in quality as compared to your usual high standards. Less videos like these please.

[@ZZValiant]

What's with all the hate? I like the guy's whimsical and sloppy style.

[@lbboardingb3356]

as much as I agree this does not belong on eater, this guy is not as terrible as everyone's bitching would indicate.

[@2legittoquit]

Did they get sponsored by The Boiling Crab to compliment every single thing there? The chicken wings and tenders look generic to me.

[@JackGeezy]

I should have never watched this after blazing, shit !!

[@michealjohnson7019]

I might be wrong but I think he got batman and starwars mixed up

[@MaZEEZaM]

This might have been good but I hated the editing and music. It felt so rushed. 🐟

[@salmonfish1145]

I felt sick in the stomach watching this. Is that normal?

[@jackrabbit08]

Bring back Supertaster ):

[@LoveGixx]

.. i never did like him.. horrible..
