ESSEX, MASSACHUSETTS: Welcome to Essex, Massachusetts, home to Woodman’s, where they invented the New England style deep fried clam! During our trip to New England we were not going to miss this opportunity to eat the king of deep fried seafood, and we got a gigantic $284.75 Fisherman’s Platter!
Friends in the video:
🔹 Follow Jeffrey Merrihue: / jeffrey_merrihue - Stop by at Heroic Italian (g.page/heroici...) in Santa Monica and say Hi to Jeffrey!
Woodman's of Essex (g.page/woodman...) Total price - $284.75 - We arrived to Woodman's of Essex, ready to devour some deep fried seafood. As the true story goes, back in 1916 Lawrence "Chubby" Woodman and his wife Bessie had a cart and sold fresh clams and deep fried potato chips. One day one of his fisherman friends told him to deep fry some clams in the potato chip oil. It was almost a joke - they said it was something humorous, but after trying it, they realized they might be onto something. They invented and popularized the fried clam. To this day, the original fried clam is available at Woodman's of Essex and it’s as good as it’s ever been.
At Woodman’s they also have a host of other deep fried seafood, including clam strips, scallops, shrimp, and fish, plus onion rings and fries. We decided to order a huge fisherman’s platter, including a mix of everything piled high onto Jeffrey’s lobster tray.
While all the seafood at Woodman's of Essex is delicious and remarkably deep fried and crispy, still nothing beats the deep fried clams - the original deep fried clams.
Kelly's Roast Beef (goo.gl/maps/9f...) Price - $14.02 meal combo - next up on this mini tour, just down the Massachusetts coast I stopped at Kelly's Roast Beef, legendary for their roast beef sandwich. It was every bit as good as I was hoping it to be and everything it needed to be. Don’t miss it when you visit Massachusetts!

As a native New Englander this video is making me so hungry im going to have to find some fried seafood today 😂
My sentiments exactly..now I m jonesin for fried clams
I'm a half-New Englander in Texas and I want to go back for more artery clogging goodness. In 2018 I ate at the Clam Box in Ipswich four times during my week's stay.
As a New Englander myself, I can’t believe he went here.
Absolutely I’ve been saying the same thing. I’m about an hour away from Woodmans. I got to go we got to go.
Jeffrey does it again in this piece, as he muttered. “Mmmm a Mountain”., after gorging a huge fried platter of fish filled with his handfuls of food-to-belly treats. Great stuff!
I used to eat there growing up, my favorite is the fried scallops, they’re huge and sweet 😋
That's awesome I'm glad you got to go there I can't wait to book my trip ✈
I know! I’m from Portland, Maine, living in Texas the last 30 plus years, and I can’t wait to go home every year to eat Lobsta, fried scallops, fried clams, haddock, Lobsta rolls, and all things seafood ! Best shellfish in America, maybe the world! Non seafood, got to have some delicious Italian sandwiches from Amato’s in Portland, Maine! I’m salivating !
Always a GREAT food video when Mark is eating and his eyes are about to POP OUT!
That's every video.
Which eye is real?
Followed with his eyes rolling back toward the heavens, grinning like the Cheshire Cat and then an "Oh, wow...". Classic!
Never been a seafood person but this video is making me reconsider.
Mark is a true food legend
"Uh... Waitress... we're gonna need a lot more tartar sauce." Seriously, this looks like my kinda seafood joint! I live on the Gulf Coast. We get great shrimp, crawfish, crabs, oysters, all kinds of fish. But we don't get scallops here. I've had fried scallops and really like them, but not near where I live. I'll tell you... I could eat there (Woodman's) and do some damage!
It’s been many years since I’ve been to both places. Brings back memories. I can tell you both are a great place to eat!

woodmans is one of the few rare places that lives up to the hype. I'm so hungry and missing it right now.
Last meal of the Day "Roast beef" Looks Very Scrumptious🤤..Bro can Eat all day and still same weight..Notbad..
Fried Seafood at it's best. The Price gives you a bountiful of food. Only thing missing is that fried Northern Atlantic Octopus. The Roast Beef Combo comes with the wind and seagulls.
Thank You
My goodness, I really think you guys need small side plates and, where the heck are the napkins????
Thanks for a weekend trip idea
Healthy American way, deep fried everything.
LOL!
Hahahahaha 😂

You're in our neck of the woods. As Foodies We'd LOVE to show you around BOSTON we have some spots that screams MARK WEINS! Great video and love that platter. Needs a special seasoning for those fries those.
As a fan of BOTH of your channels, I wholeheartedly approve of this message!! stay safe and eat well!
*My cholesterol level is skyrocket by just watching all that deep fry.*
My gallbladder needs to come out just by watching this too.
@@anasandoval6698 what does that mean?
@@JP1NYC 😂😂
@@JP1NYC the gallbladder is an organ found by the liver that connects to the liver and pancreas via ducts (think of it like a balloon bellow the liver that can inflate and deflate as needed). It helps the liver produce and store bile (a type of acidic acid) that turns fat into fatty acids that your body can digest and absorb. Overconsumption of fatty foods such as fried foods can cause an accumulation of cholesterol in the body and in the gallbladder. If the gallbladder can't break these fats quickly they turn into gallstones (think of these as stones of various shapes and sizes that cannot be digested by your body nor escape the gallbladder, they just keep accumulating). You then essentially have a balloon (the gallbladder) full of them that will overtime get bigger and accumulate. They don't go anywhere, they just stay in this balloon. Since the balloon can no longer deflate and inflate as it used to because now they always have stones inside, if the stones are large enough they can block the duct to the pancreas and liver limiting the amount of bile that is excreted to these organs. This is not a good thing as you can experience severe discomfort and referred pain; meaning the right side of your upper belly won't be hurting but instead you'll feel pain and discomfort on your right shoulder/scapula for no apparent reason (that's referred pain). Worst case scenario, the gallbladder bursts inside your body spilling bile into your abdominal cavity which can lead to sepsis (blood poisoning) and if left untreated it can kill you. If the gallbladder is removed through surgery or laparoscopy you can 100% live without it, but you cannot consume fried foods in such big quantities (such as in this video) as you'll feel extremely grossed out, you'll feel like you need to puke, or will get diarrhea because your body cannot break down the fats into fatty acids anymore.
@@anasandoval6698 nice you took your time to educate someone hahah respect
Mark, I grew up nearby and my parents took me there to eat steamers when I was 2, I’m now 55, this is the place to eat seafood, so nice to see you there 😎
Come south please!!
But it's too expensive
Love your comment!
Which month to get the freshest clams, do you know?
@@heythave As a kid I would dig them about 2 miles from that place near Crane beach, as for best time of year, not really sure, sorry.
Respect to the man who doesn't change for fame!!
Who doesn’t change for fame? His whole personality changed when he started becoming popular. Watch his first videos. No exaggerated “yummy face”, never use to smile and actually gave his honest opinions on food (he would say if he didn’t like something).
But otherwise than that, he hasn’t changed.🤦♂️
@@potusthepotatooftheuniteds1034 He does play it up, I think. Nobody reacts that strongly to some average-looking chicken tenders. But as far as I can tell, he didn't become an a-hole from the fame.
@@potusthepotatooftheuniteds1034 You can change the food out for Long John Silver’s and he would react the same way
th-cam.com/video/JS_PlOKii3Y/w-d-xo.htmlbc
@@potusthepotatooftheuniteds1034 Right. Like he always use to order $300+ plates on a regular basis. So much in excess that he has to give it to employees.....ya Mark hasn't changed lmao.
Idk the older man with him makes me uncomfortable 😅😅
😂
What fun! I get so hungry, even after eating, while watching these scrumptious videos! Mark, you must have quite a remarkable metabolism! I love New England, and a gastronomical grand tour during foliage is a culinary paradise. Your Ogunquit stop was, inclusively, especially sentimental... a veritable Maine event: the staff at a piano-bar lobster restaurant there found out that I play the piano -- I got pressed into service for the open mic singalong and never got to finish dinner!
Personally he looks extremely skinny compared to hi healthy self, I hope he is okay.
Great comment.
@@perrynnlynch1883 Thank you!
Why order Large and Double portions when you know you couldn't eat it all? "Leaving food for the staff" yeah right - it was likely thrown out. Who wants cold fried food that someone touched.
should've ordered tiny portions of everything and made a new order if it ran out
I thought the same thing. Who would eat cold picked over food 🤔
Its going on 3:00am while I’m watching this. Everything looks so good that my mouth is watering. I’m from New England, born and raised, I’ve been eating fried seafood my whole life. There’s nothing better than fresh fresh seafood and steamed clams in the world. Great video!
Me too buddy
Hjnmil!nhbg
If you really have been eating fried seafood your whole life, how is it you haven't dropped dead yet? This food has got to be a cardiovascular system's worst nightmare,
Sleep 😡😠
@@moseskongi4746 they didnt say all day everyday they said their whole life
Im not a big fan of fried clams but I LOVE ME SOME FRIED CALAMARI! With that said, I know what I'm getting for lunch today, haha
My son discovered calamari and oh my goodness...he’d order a plate for multiple people and destroy it himself. If anyone wants some, we have to order a second plate, haha.
th-cam.com/video/JS_PlOKii3Y/w-d-xo.htmlcvfb
you are eating squid gross
The price of that platter is ridiculous 300$ for that is way too expensive I live on the coast and there is maybe 100$ worth of fish on there the scallops would cost the most at around 12$ lbs Mark should have charged them for the advertisement
$300 is cheap for all that, that is some of the best seafood in the world. Woodman's is literally packed out the door with a line every single day they are open during the summer and nice weather. Not to mention all the competition around them in Essex, Ipswich etc. and they still kill it. They also cater as well and its all incredible
$284 seems a rip-off for this much food. I hope it was fresh catch atleast.
It was insanely expensive fried fast food. No more, no less.
As a New Engender myself growing up on the North Shore of Boston... I think you should check out Nick's Roast beef in Beverly and Essex Seafood. I'll bet you would love them both!
Love Nick's and the new Essex Seafood building. Great memoreies.
Grew up crushing super beefs with mayo from Nicks!
Shoutout to Mark’s wife who has to share a bed with him and deal with the “aftermath” of him eating all this fried food.
lol, I'm sure they have all of the restrooms mapped and reserved out in every direction! He's no slouch!
@@leewhite6008 Yea... Not his first rodeo or her's. lol
Mark can consume vast amounts and types of foods and spices all over the world.He can handle it or he wouldn't do it! He has said he eats very lightly when not doing a video and he walks everywhere. Still, he has developed an iron stomach!
Mark.what? No extra spices and pepper sauce????
Hall of fame commentary
I love that Mark includes little moments here and there of people randomly recognizing him.
I’m sure he has a full editing team these days.
Always, I 💞💞 It!
Mee too
@@hellohellohello6847 he do now you right
I would love to meet Mark..the king of food 👍
I feel they could've used chopsticks for this type of party
@Katja Wilkinson you don't have to be Asian to have manners....js
Not sure the staff would want leftovers that have tunnels made from licked fingers 😖
They could have worn plastic gloves or tongs to put on their own plate. It would have been a lot more hygienic that way. I cringed when I saw him put his fingers into his mouth then dig into the plate for fish.
@@carmsadventures so gross and indulgent
When I was a kid I spent my summers on Cape Cod. In the town of Yarmouth there was a place called "Jerry's" on Rte 28. I used to work there serving ice cream and peeled onions for the onion rings. Jerry's use to have the best fried clams around. People would travel for miles to get them. I would go into the walk in cooler to get things and while inside I would peer at the clams inside the small container they were packed in. They were still alive and wiggling. The secret to good fried clams is hot hot grease. "Jerry's" is still there but Jerry himself is no longer the owner. Jerry was a workaholic during the summer months who worked sixteen hours a day seven days a week. He could be cranky too. When summer season ended his relatives would run the store during off season and his wife would not let him step foot inside the store. Jerry and his wife were good people.
@Kaisa Islamova I'll explain, stupid. Jerry's seafood was number 1 on Cape Cod at one time.
I’m so jealous, I had to grow up in Malibu around beautiful bikinis and not so good seafood. Can I trade you some avocados and strawberries for a lobster?
It was a pleasure to read this. Another place I will love to visit. Thank you for sharing your memories.
@@sociallyimpairedgaming4329 don't go to Jerrys! It's under new ownership and they don't know how to make good fried clams.
We spent every summer in Bass River and went to Moby Dick's for fried seafood. That was 50 plus years ago. Wonder if it's still there?
Around midnight, I watched this. I got so hungry for seafood. Then, afterwards, I wanted a Revere Beach Roast Beef sandwich. It all looked so good. I'm going to one or both of those places.. probably this weekend. Thanks Mark! I loved this.
Lucky you.... wish we had one of them in Ozz
Was at revere beach last month and my daughter had roast beef, I had clam chowder. Excellent 😁
Ate there 3 times this week… amazing food, amazing family! ❤️
@@billmoody1362 Nothing beats N.E. Clam Chowder! 😋👍🏼
Nobody has lettuce on the Kelly's roast beef!
Woodman's opened in 1914, my family has been going there since 1916. So much love for this place.
I love your show but this episode was just gross. All three of you plowing your hands into that platter of food, then putting your fingers into your mouths and then back again to finger through the pile of fish was disgusting. And to then share those fingered-over remnants with the staff... unsanitary and stomach turning. Even without Covid considerations it was yucky. What the hell Mark?
That was Jeffrey's idea to give it to the staff. Especially during covid, I don't think I'd be eating after people like that 😂
Thank you "Miss Prissy". You would be the first one missing from the lifeboat.
@@mark41245 Mark! Isn't that a male name?
@@pchinnIII how is observing sanitary measures “prissy”? Do you double dip while eating with co-workers and friends? Do you put your fingers in your mouth and then touch things that others are going to eat? Because if you do, that’s disgusting. And I’m saying that as a Chef trained in food safety.
If you need to gaslight me to feel at ease with your own apparently low standards of cleanliness then so be it. Weird flex though.
@@sheilamongey3443 OK Karen! "A Chef trained in food safety" Can you imagine how that would hold up in the lifeboat? Buh- Bye. You realize that 90% of the world has no idea what you are talking about. That is because most of the people just want to have Food. How much thought do you think people put into how should we eat this food? Stay Safe.
Nasty how that Jeffery dude is touching all of the food on that platter and just throwing it somewhere else lol
yeah, I wouldn't eat that if two other people's hands were molesting that food. no thanks. i feel sorry for the staff who was gonna finish eating that dish.
They were all doing it....
Everyone is doing it so don't worry about it as long as your not eating it.
Mark was doing it way more than Jeffrey
I agree
I’m surprised that they didn’t deep fry the Lobster 🦞 lol 😂
I’m just waking up and watching you guys eating delicious seafood….great way to wake up!!! 😋

I used to have an Aunt and Uncle who lived in Essex and have amazing memories of sitting at the table with the fam. I ate so much of those fried clams. Was watching a completely unrelated video when this popped up in the suggestion box. So many good memories. Had no idea about the history of the place until now which makes those memories even better! I'm really craving those fried clams now.
Guy spends over $250 and they bring a single pina colada and three straws 😂😂😂😂 why did that make me laugh so much. Idk 🤷♂️
Mark you are literally going through my childhood vacation destinations that I used to take with my parents back in the 80s and 90s, this is incredible!

I remember my mom taking us to Woodman's when she took us on a roadtrip across New England (she moved frequently as a kid and was showing us where she had grown up). We hit Woodman's and it was absolute one of my favorite memories of the trip. She passed away from cancer in January of 2020 when I was 22, I'll never forget that trip and want to bring my kids back when I have some to have that same experience.
This is literally my childhood in Massachusetts... Watching this brings back memories of my entire family gathered around the table all eating fried fresh seafood from our favorite restaurant.
Yep, same here. I grew up in New Haven CT...and this sort of thing was always a regular for me and my family when I was a kid.
I miss it.

“Whatever we don’t eat the staff can have…” lol I’m sure they will throw away any extra, certainly no one who works there wants it.
They waisted a lot of food to get a good thumbnail picture.

I'm so jealous Mark. Those fried clams had my mouth watering. If I ever visit Boston, I am definitely coming to Woodman's.
Local here if you want good seafood Essex is about 25 minutes north of Boston on the north shore. If you want good seafood try closer to Boston Sullivan’s castle Island here in Southie AKA south Boston. Also the clam box on Wollaston beach in Quincy. Both are T accessible.
Def not the best lol
@@KUSHKOURAFAS Not from around here are ya ? @redsoxgirl51282, There is also Tony's which is right down the street from the Clam Box... all which can give Woodman's a run for it's money
I love the content Mark! One of my favs is when you went to Philly for that Cheese Steak Run. Had me ready to catch a flight out there 😂. Only issue I have is trying to watch your videos without getting hungry 🤣. Keep it up.
I am grateful I live in a maritime country and have plenty of seafood. He paid 250+ USD on this, you can have this for as little as 50-80 in my hometown. But still, experiencing food from other places is a very good adventure.
Agree. This platter would run you about 30 U.S. dollars where I'm from. Still, I'd drop money for new tastes and experiences any day.
Dk Trek: What country are you in?
You spend 250$ and they give you the smallest little plastic cups for the dips ,look great now I'm hungry
Well, they still can ask for more when it's empty. It's not like the joint gonna get stingy with the condiment, especially for big clientele like Mark and the gang,
They should have given a lot more sauce.

How do you stay in such great shape eating like this? I'm impressed. All the food looks delicious.
Most of the Asian food he eats is healthy, especially the Thai food.
He has worms in the body I 99% guarantee you that, if you have worms, not matter what you eat, can't gain weight, he needs to take tablets to get rid of worms
He said something about running when he comes back from his trips.
I’m not so sure that you’re eating food that is hot. These massive servings don’t look appetizing.
I go to Woodman’s all the time. They have cool T-shirts and Hoodies. My favorite place to sit is on the picnic tables in the back by the marsh. The lady and I split fried clams and fried scallops. It’s definitely in my top 5 fried seafood joints in New England.
Thar platter price was ridiculously overpriced, how arw their normal prices?
@@Scott-fy7fm it’s still seafood. Just fresh as all hell. Gotta pay the captain, captain has to pay his crew and gas, plus upkeep. It’s a dangerous job with high insurance costs. Sea isn’t always bountiful and can be unforgiving. Gotta pay the plethora of employees that keep the ~300 seat restaurant moving, plus merch and bar. Restaurant margins are slim regardless. Do I need to justify the cost anymore? You pay for what you get. The portions are massive, it’s fresh and delicious and it really hasn’t changed much since it opened, just keeping up with inflation. Own a restaurant or become a fisherman, then reply.
@@veegames3364 that platter is well over twice the cost it would be anywhere around here
As someone who works in a restaurant, (I've waited tables for 12 years) I can tell you right now if a customer came and offered me a platter of 1 hour old fried food that had been picked over by strangers' hands, I would laugh in their face. There's no way that staff was THRILLED to eat their cold leftovers. I'm sorry but you guys ordered way too much food. I'm not a hater. I've been watching Mark for years and this is the first negative thing I've ever commented.
Well maybe they didn’t eat it themselves but they can give it to the homeless and re-heat it Or at least someone who wants it I mean they paid for it should they have thrown it away instead?
That platter was disgusting.
Definitely agree with you. Not a chance I would eat that.
Who would want to eat it after they had moved it about with their hands did any one see them wash their hands at any time.
I thought the same thing too. Who would be happy eating a stranger's left overs. Yuk.
284 dollars worth of fast food containing huge amounts of overheated fat and starch. Mark said the platter was ten pounds. So that's "only" about 28 dollars per pound. We are talking fried stuff including french fries (these alone are $9.75) and onion rings here. This must be a tourist trap.
Kudo's to the young man who delivered that platter!!! Loooooove the steamers
"I'll send a picture of this [platter] to your doctors"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm getting high blood pressure just looking at the platter.

Guys, I hate to be that negative guy, but when checking the receipt its $63 for a large portion of Scallops?! $46 for a large portion of shrimp? Thats insane to me.
I agree, it all looks very much overpriced. I can do this at home in my air fryer, save a bunch of money and save on the calories. I can make a mean tartar sauce too
Sorry to say but putting all the fried seafood on one platter was bad call. Not only can you not tell what you're eating, the heat creates moisture which is sure to ruin the crispiness, and that fish was just falling apart when you tried to fish it out...
debbie downer.
HEY! @@jonmorgan6300
The freshness is a bit destroyed by frying them. Agree?
You could say that about any method of cooking, no?
I'm a big fan and love coming home from work to watch your new episodes but tbh this one was pretty disgusting in a lot of ways. Why would y'all not have individual plates with utensils to take what you'd like instead of licking fingers then shoving them back in the plate to put fish on the top to let everyone eat🙃 let alone that the amount of waste was unreal. I know y'all had said the staff had gladly taken it and ate it themselves but I just highly doubt it after working in a few doesn't restaurants. Yes they may have said they would but I think it got brought to the back and trashed. Besides that the rest was great as usual
I see your point, and I understand, but I grew up in Essex and I've worked in fried seafood restaurants there. It's actually pretty common that in situations such at these, you give the rest to the staff.
Food = Life Energy that keeps us alive.
People who call themselves foodies and travel over the world just to eat for pleasure without acknowledging the fact that something has died in order for them to carry on with their "hobby" is somewhat sadistic to be honest.
Yessss
For that price I'm shocked that they didn't give you more sauce. I feel sick just thinking about all that fried food.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Jeffrey needs to watch what he eats
@@CynthiaSusanOrtiz he need to not touch his nose before touching all those platters

Mark is so nice, he's a customer yet he keeps thanking everyone from the restaurant, and even opens the door for the waiter.
Hey Mark I just want to know how much weight you gain since you came back to the United states?
Mark I love your show watch it from the beginning but today in the New England tour I just don’t like how you guys just stuff your face is all three of you and in front of a camera and just gorgeous selfie a kind of don’t understand that that’s not tasteful to me

Living here in New England all my life (67 yrs.) I must say the seafood here is pretty darn good. If rating seafood by State, then my picks would be Maine first, then Massachusetts/Rhode Island.
Wow, I could not have dug in with my hands like that, especially during a pandemic. 🤢
What pandemic ?
Seriously
My mom is going to Woodman’s this weekend for her birthday! She’s so excited!
No covid there?
@@ttarcus6546 Maine is pretty lax with the restrictions.
صصصجججج
@@ttarcus6546 people don't care about covid anymore, unfortunately. That's why it's spreading like crazy!
@@kurraburr1179 im so jealous. My country still fighting covid
My favorite place to eat near my home town…Kelly’s! Enjoy the roast beef sandwich. Watch out those Revere Beach seagulls are bullies.😂
Everything in the usa is monumental over priced.
You sound like a poor foreigner
Bro love your videos.. Always amazing energy and really makes me feel super at home and happy. You are the goat Mark, wishing you happy moments forever. Thank you for allowing us to tag along on your food trips 🤙🏼
I’m literally eating pancakes and bacon literally as I’m watching! Watching mark wiens, and the food rangers are the only type of food channels I would watch all the time!
Im gonna join you on the eating part. Pancakes anyone?
Jå

*Hello Mark ! can't stop watching your mouthwatering and delicious food reviews and it's been so addictable since many years !!! 💖 thumbs up cheerings and watching from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 🔥🤠👍*

how embarrassing for the restaurant, bringing out only *ONE drink* for a guest like Mark. SHAME
The really sad thing about this is that I’m getting over covid and still can’t taste or smell 😩😩😩 ugghhhh looks delicious 🤤
same situation for me :D
I hope you’re doing well guys, how’s it right now?
Get well soon...🙋
So it os real. The loss of smell and taste
Oh the wonderful memories of eating here as a youngster with my family. Absolutely the best seafood any where. Scallops, shrimp, onion rings ( best I have ever eaten) and fries was my choice each time :) I'm 66 yrs old so thanks for highlighting Woodman's.
The fried clams and scallops had me drooling! 🤤🤤
Fried scallops have to be one of my favorite foods.
@@b1k2q34 Absolutely.
It’s very unhealthy to eat that much fried food
If you ever go back to Massachusetts, you should go to the North Shore and go to John's Roast Beef in Lynn MA. Get a super beef on an onion roll with sauce and cheese. It would easily be my last meal if I was ever on death row.
I don't like this episode, it is very wasteful, and disgusting... you ate without hand glove, you mashed and tossed the food, and then did not finish it, and gave it to the staff? I feel it is quite disrespectful to them, don't you think?
😂😂😂
I came to the end section of the comments to find these insightful comments. Thank you for commenting.
Ya just stay at home and don't leave and vote 4 braindead brandon let's go....germs are good for ur u helps build up strength...just saying free loader
Drives me nuts that here we have access to such great seafood and the goto move all across the states is to deep fry everything.. oh well carry on.
Go catch your own fish and cook it lmao
I agree.
i mean, its awful either way
