Here it is! The "reward" for the KickStarter backers who supported the 'Iron Stomach' tier!

182 backers submitted one ingredient each, with the only caveat being "It must be eaten as food, somewhere" ??? and the understanding that we may not be able to find your submission in town.

Granted, we made it seem like everyone was only gonna drink their own, but we were all too curious!

Also, the first one gave us the perfect mixture of angry Cameron and deeply confused Cameron. Excellent. It's like he temporarily reverted to caveman form. "Fire is bullshit. It's hot, it burns, and I don't understand it. Take it away from here."

This was fantastic, and fantastically gross.

I do wish people were able to experience marmite in its natural habitat, though. Probably wouldn't get such a bad rep. That, or most of us Brits have major Stockholm Syndrome when it comes to yeast byproducts.

EDIT: that natural habitat being thinly-spread on a slice of almost-burnt toast.

EDIT 2: Okay, that just make it sound worse.

Just a thought, how much do we gotta pay to make you guys take another round from the suggestions. I mean their are like another 170 suggestions.

Not a big fan of the captions. But otherwise I'm very proud of you guys.

I loved the captions.

Also I'm now seriously considering a lemon butter smoothie.

Maybe should have used ice instead of water.

Maybe it's like canned laughter to me? Whats being said is funny, be reminding me it looses its impact. But that's just me.

I liked the captions because it emphasizes the absurdity of what's being said. It's rather easy to just blurt out "Did I just get in a fight?!" after drinking a disgusting smoothie, but only in text does it make you go "wait, what?"

Also, Alex, remember that time you fisted a pumpkin? :P

Did we hit all the colors of the rainbow with that? I think blue is the only one we missed.

Taste the WORST rainbow.

That was a thing.
Just wow. Everything was so chunky looking. I am glad I couldn't smell it I might have been sick.
Cam had the best reaction to everything, I wish he has been around for the entire video.

Was Heather trying Alex's one on the background in the end?

As somebody who had asked for yet another form of liquorice, this was brilliant. On the other hand, it looked unpleasant enough to justify this being a one-off return to the format.

The olive, artichoke, and rye bread one was a clear stand-out, in that it could be an actual thing.

I'm so glad that I watched this video at lunch so I too could get the full value out of this experience.

So, which one is a candidate for the Bionic Trousers Edibles division health shake? We need to grab the market, blend it and sell it to everyone!

When Alex got his hand stuck in the pumpkin, I imagined a hard cut to a bleached white skeleton with its hand stuck in a pumpkin.

It's actually hard to say which was funnier, faces made or the verbal reactions.

If there is more of this, it could be interesting to have the ingredients tasted individually before the blending. As sort of a reference.

Wait,...
7 amps *110 Volts = 770 Watts > 1 horsepower.
...
25 amps *110 Volts = 2750 Watts > 3.5 horses.
That's a powerful blender.

Also. The following is a train of thought I went on during the Video.

There's no such thing as "Paul.exe" as such a program (I don't want to use the word 'executable') would be written for a UNIX-Descendant system (probably a Linux).
But then the error message would say more... So What could it be? Segfault? Well maybe, as he could be trying to find a taste in his memory and could define the index of the search, but landed outside the array and...

Did anyone else pick up on that (the .exe thing), or am I just weird?
