I appreciate that they went with kranch instead of retchup.

[@Interference22]

They call it Kranch because if they fitted the words together the other way round it'd be "retchup" which sounds like someone vomiting up a drainpipe.

[@CountDrunkula]

I used to hear dad whispering "I'm sorry I retchupped you last night." to my mum before school. No.... NOOOOOOOO.

[@Gambit771]

Hello, everyone. Yes. We know now that meat raffles are very popular in the North of England. Sorry about that, but you don't need to leave a comment telling us anymore. 500,000 people got there before you. What can we say? We're dirty Southerners!

[@CoolHandJames]

I used to have a pub down the North end road in West Kensington in London and I had a meat raffle.

[@Digitiser]

FINE.

Pie Guy Die is quite possibly one of my favourite little skits now. Ridiculous, love it. I feel like since taking this route of more random videos, the personalities on the show have come out more. Will Octavius and Larry be coming along for the non video game related content? Don’t think we’ve seen them since New Coke.

[@StormkeeperPU]

Yeah, it got a few laughs from me, because I'm aware of sadistic games like that... I saw a similar sequence ages ago that was funny too, but I can't recall what it was called xD

Not sure if it's different in the south but meat raffles were very common in Manchester when I was growing up.

Ashens shares my "not able to eat breakfast" pain. Finally, someone understands!

[@KhronicD]

I too can't eat for the first hour or two after I wake up. Apparently drinking a couple glasses of water as soon as you wake up can help stimulate your stomach. Never works for me.

Meat platters in pubs/clubs is a traditoon throughout Britain. You dont hear of it so much jow, but up to about 10 years ago, but before then, a meat raffle was very common. I remember my dad bringing home £100s of fresh meat that he won at Dagenham trades hall many a time (good quality neat fresh that day from Spitalfields) this was common in the North of England too, because when i met my husband who is from up north i mentioned this to him thinking it was just something our local did, but it turns out that it was common where he lived too, his sister worked in a butchers who supplied local pubs/clubs with the prizes for the meat raffle (which wasnt as yoj may expect, the shite leftover at the end of the day that was on the turn, but meat fresh in that day prepared by the butcher) and also, on our travels around britain we have witnessed many meat raffles taking place. They get mentioned a lot in regional sitcoms/tv shows too. Definitely a thing that exists in the UK so not unique to Australia.

[@Digitiser]

We stand over-corrected.

[@BenOHara1978]

meat trays a things in the uk too, certainly up north! Or am i just remembering buying stolen meat from smack heads in pubs!

Meat draws were (possibly still are) a major thing in English pubs.

They do that in the midwestern United States at pubs as well.

The man who developed the Pringle Making Machine is now a serious novelist who has won lots of awards. And has a really big moustache.

In small town America we often have meat raffles at bars, a good way for both the butcher and bar to make some extra money

The meat raffle thing is also something they do in Canada. Maybe not so much anymore, but I have memories of my parents winning roasts and such in bars back in the late 1990's/early 2000's

Speaking about Pringles, I find that Lidl does an own-brand that is sort of like Pringles, except it has a better texture with an undertone of Hula Hoops. Honestly, I feel like they should have a better name than just "Snaktastic Flavour Potato Snacks".
