Taco Bell taste test

Ben went to the cursed Taco Bell Cantina in the heart of Hollywood for a taste test. He ate a lot. Things got weird.
Be sure to stick around to the very end for a little easter egg.

I look forward to hearing Ben's diarrhea updates on the pod

This is a beautiful documentary about a schizophrenic blind man looking for food in our abundant yet impoverished society.

[@sauerproductions]

first video - ben took the acid second video - we did

[@HeyItsPM]

that's exactly how it felt. some eery yet comforting sound design, powerful cinematography, and ben just bein' so real and genuine and in-the-moment. an acid trip in a nutshell. one of the best vids i've seen since the shopping on acid vid.

you could not write the shit that guy said in a script

the thing is, that's like a convo with any random guy in america

[@dytakt]

Ben calling his mom is so fucking funny. The pain in her voice knowing he's gonna be fucked up from the food

[@yawn-entity]

her saying "you don't have to eat it all" like a mother who's had to repeat this on hundreds of occasions. beautiful moment 10/10

[@Mophead950]

Lap job is now a staple in my lexicon

[@potaterboo7907]

these always feel like Ben and Emil let their film nerd of a friend practice on them during their free time, but they just don’t have anything going on in their lives so the content itself is just average everyday life with no actual plot (loving these btw)

this feels weirdly dystopian idk why. the sound design really gives me a feeling of despair fr

[@emmaj7445]

i was gonna say it felt really sad or maybe bleak for some reason haha. i think the juxtaposition of the homelessness and “end stage capitalism-ness” of hollywood made it feel really tragic

[@HungarianMafioso]

11:12 The Ferrari guy saying, "so cigars are actually healthy for you" after Ben's cigar story AND the fake cholesterol conspiracy is pure comedy 🤣

[@offmipills]

Ben is what happens when a serial killer never becomes a serial killer

[@LogiMoistudio]

This has genuinely been one of the best videos I've seen on this platform in a good while. Between the beautiful camera work, perfectly paced editing, and Ben's schizophrenia; just an absolute banger.

[@benandemilshow]

Damn thank youn

[@matthewshaw2850]

Seriously this video far exceeded my expectations for what I would expect out of any KZbin video. This is something different and I fuck with it heavy. Can’t wait for the next one

[@missneat7804]

best shot in the entire episode is when Ben is ordering and the dude next to him is just GRIPPING some ass

[@nicoleosaurus13]

I think Ben can just talk to anyone and make friends. It's wild.

[@janopawski183]

I subbed after seeing the acid special a couple of weeks ago and I've binged the whole backlog since then, this is such a treat. I love the pod, but honestly this kind of content might be what you do best (two 10/10 so far).

Nah, thank YOU guys, you're making really cool stuff!

0:23 The poor girl at the start just had to hear a crazy man ramble about diarrhea as he was coming out of the parking garage

Bro the call to prayer at 7:14 is an absolute cherry on top of the spiritual experience we are vicariously experiencing via Benis

[@Fake_Brian]

this is like a psychological horror wtf

[@J.A_C.K]

What’s crazy is that I imagine this kind of stuff is what Ben has been doing for a while and it is just now on camera

[@Molemanski]

I found this channel 2 days ago when I saw the Acid video. I thought it was groundbreaking to see such a "KZbin-like" video but with great cinematography and style. I was hoping the rest of the channel would be exactly and just that, while I was sad to find out that it this type of video was rather a spin-off than the main content, I'm so glad to see this style of video again. I swear if this channel was only this type of videos, it would be absolutely revolutionairy.

[@benandemilshow]

hell yeah molemanski

Idk what kind of genre y'all are pioneering here but it's the best content on KZbin. Only thing that'd make it better is our boy Emil making an appearance

Who let Ben roam free?
