The arbys employee asking “are you sure” after ordering something is one of the most threatening things I think a person could experience
As an Arby’s worker I would ask anyone if they were sure about a meat mountain as well. That thing is an absolute abomination and shouldn’t be consumed by anyone alive.
It's like when you're playing d&d and your DM asks "are you sure you want to do that?" it's like well now I don't know if I am
like that one fucking regular show episode where they get the coldest slushie
@@tobyg5318 I’ve eaten it twice
@@tobyg5318 what about the cheese beef thing
The awkwardness of the BK encounter is what I always imagined the response you'd get to requesting any secret menu item at any restaurant to be.
taco bell too
Because they don't have a "secret menu" the worker has to modify an original item and charge more for it just because something needs to be added.
I have worked at Starbucks, KFC, McDonald's and Wendy's. None of them have a section for "secret orders"
agreeeeee, i just felt my soul leave my body when i heard how much that guy was definitely getting minimum wage
@@Daveeeeeeyhowyoudoing Its a ham and cheese sandwich, just charge the guy for a cheeseburger.
@@methatguy5996 that doesn't work that way, because then at the end of the day management will not be able to explain that ham disappeared and extra burger meat is left over. I wish I could change the price myself, but that isn't allowed. Would be ordered as a cheeseburger, without meat, only cheese, add ham. You would pay +$1.50 on top of the price of a regular cheeseburger, because it must be ordered as "add ham" and they don't deduct price for removing meat, as people have abused that to get free food (aka McDonald's ketchup cheese bun exploit)
Respect to tucker for taking the plunge and sitting in the shotgun seat, especially considering the football-basketball sized hole right beneath his feet
Basketball-football sized hole*
football-basketball-sized hole
this reads like a poem thank you
I was literally about to comment this same thing lol
I was about to mention that, I’m so worried about that!
For those who aren't Los Angeles locals and confused by "exhausted; driven around all day": every west coast fast-food restaurant is in a 5-mile radius of each other, but it takes several hours of waiting in traffic to reach them all.
As a SoCal resident I can confirm this. It’s ridiculous
as european im confused just bike there and eat on park bench or something lol what's with the cars
@@autismofinn3144 Our cities are built extremely unfriendly to pedestrian and bicycle traffic. >.>

I'll never forget the time I met ted! I was in LA back in 2018, and I was staying in an Airbnb, and all of a sudden i woke up and ted nivison was standing at the foot of the bed and started tearing off my skin! i was so honored!
Reminds me of the time Ted skinned me, nailed my to a cross and let me simmer in the sun as the crows picked at my fresh. Love that guy
such a down to earth guy, i loved it when he broke both my legs
Classic ted
Ted is such a great guy, he finally let my femur bones see the light of day!
He’s so cute like that 🥰
Great video Ted! I just wish your quest to find the worst secret menu item didn't have to include busting both of my kneecaps open with a baseball bat.
hello smut
I know what you did
you’re still alive?
If you weren't hiding little secrets inside of those kneecaps of yours maybe I wouldn't! Something to think about!
Hello schlugget
As a management member at Dairy Queen I can assure you there is no Dark Council that sends us daily emails with death threats to our families, and the traditional employees do not have mandatory "therapy" sessions where they take a nice "reset". There is nothing beyond the menu in front of you, looking past that may produce displeasing results.
CEASE YOUR INVESTIGATIONS
the dark council got to them 😔
I'll pray for you
Dairy Emails
Lies and slander, I am a DQ whistleblower. And I know for a fact about the destined 'DQ Quart', the blizzard they put in a Large-drink cup. It's so chaotic it can't be flipped for fear of spilling.
the fact that the only place that wouldn't let you do a "secret menu" customization was the restaurant whose slogan is "have it your way" 💀
A lot of slogans are basically legacy at this point. Like Google's: "don't be evil." HAHA BOY THEY SURE HAVE DONE A BAD JOB OF THAT
@@maverickREALClearly Arby's didn't get the memo on that one.
That manager was just garbage at his job.
Any other location would have made it for you if they had the things to do it.
Burger King has never ever questioned any of my extra requests or substitutions. They always, always just make it happen.
That's why I like the place. This guy 110% just gave the company really bad press.
Burger King used to be dope in the 90s. They've just fallen off.
@@Vespyr_ I've noticed bk in the usa is shit, Here in Spain bk is a thousand times better than mcdonalds, better rations, actually warm food, machines actually work and the food is actually seasoned
Props to Tucker for not falling through the basketball sized hole in the bottom of Ted's Toyota Tacoma. I would have been terrified if I was in his shoes, but he handled it like a champ.
*football-basketball sized
it has advanced to approximately the size of a large to extra large pumpkin actually
Tuckers military training and tactical thinking might be the only reason he survived such a hazardous situation
its really impressive how he didnt fall through the football field sized hole in Ted's Toyota Tacoma
@@toast3572 its one of his simpler jigsaw style deathtraps but the simplicity is endearing
i'm only 8 minutes in but as a food worker i do appreciate that you can clearly see that they didn't bother any of these places during their rush hour asking for weird shit.
Yeah, it's a fine line to walk on because obviously these guys aren't making enough to deal with an annoying TH-camr, so I wasn't gonna try to push it more than what seemed appropriate
@@TedNivisonholy based
i think the biggest obstacle to this journey is that the lifespan of a fast food worker is relatively short and so their wisdom and arts are lost to time after a few generations of fast fooders
@@TedNivison INCREDIBLY based.
@@TedNivison a true hero.
The guy at Burger King was playing dumb, they had that ham and cheese in there I know it
When the verified guy gets 59 likes. It’s okay I’m here for you *insert virtual hug here*
he fr was lmao I used to get the ham and cheese all the time in high school cause it was like 75 cents. that was like 5 years ago though.
@@THORZAN66who cares
Since Burger King has no other item that has ham, they'd have no reason to stock ham in the store for the off chance someone might order a Ham & Cheese (formerly called "The Yumbo") once a month.
They do have ham, but it's breakfast only... so it's probably like McDonald's Mc10:35 (McDouble combined with an egg McMuffin) where you can only pull it off in the narrow window during the breakfast to lunch transition.
as someone with major social anxiety, watching this video was like watching a video of somebody balancing on a crane.
Same, I get such bad second hand embarrassment that it’s nearly impossible for me to watch videos like this
it took me like a month to finally watch this video because i had to mentally prepare for the second hand embarrassment lol
yeah, I just paused the video at 5:25 and I'm currently scrolling through the comments to avoid watching it
@@Bri-ib1mp bruh I'm only a minute and a half in and I'm already stalling
The right arrow key is your friend, conveniently skipping 5 seconds of second hand embarrassment at a time. 😅
my boyfriend works at arbys, as soon as you uttered “meat mountain” i knew what you were in for. the employees are required to ask “are you sure?”
It's even worse when you're training a newbie and suddenly you have to make that with them
@@elliotwitt4572 newbies don't even know how to ring it up, the secret menu is somthing they have to train you for
@@Josh_the_rat literally, I always forgot where in the register it was
That's hilarious. Makes it feel like the meat mountain is something you're not supposed to have uttered aloud xD
@Riley L its... not... I watched my coworker make it and I was shook like it's legit taller than your face, and as new items get added. It grows. It's never the same sandwich
Any secret menu item where they ask "are you sure" and not "what are you talking about" has to be legendary.
I wish for one where they just tell you "good luck"
Clickbait
@@Ïurossa 11:17
im waiting for the "uhhh,please come in,sign a waver, and get it notarized first" type menu item
@meestur6210 I heard stories of people who wish to consume the trex a wendys secret menu item being told that or being told they are not prepared
As a manager at Burger King. The ham and cheese is definitely a thing lol. It’s just a really old item that used to be on the menu and it got removed. But we can still put it in our registers and we have all the stuff we need to make it. My location makes them whenever anyone asks for them. Which is like maybe once a month at most
My social anxiety spikes every single time you pull up to a drive through and ask for something that isn't on the menu. This isn't good for my heart.
Neither was the meat mountain for Ted's
glad i wasnt the only one
Yeah I keep fluctuating from taking damage and laughing hysterically
The way the Wendy’s drive thru attendant said “Ted?!” is so pure, that would so be me 😭
I can’t believe Tucker isn’t just a disembodied voice, my reality has been shattered.
True
isn't there an episode of chuckle sandwhich where he shows his webcam? i really thought there was
MY IMMERSION 😡😡😡
@@greatone6196yeah the markiplier episode
@@FriedCoFu ahhh okay, that sounds right
I worked at Arby's and can confirm that we are legally obligated to ask "are you sure?" after someone orders the meat mountain.
I think the weirdest crime you can possibly break is being charged for forgetting to ask a customer who ordered the meat mountain “are you sure?”
@@naikosei1585lol can confirm. ordered meat mountain a few months ago.
@wolfcreator9 I need more information on this. That was something included in your training? To me that is just the wildest thing.
also worked at arby's can confirm this is true, it's not in your training but the first time someone orders it while you're there they tell you what to say
As another employee from Arby's, I can back these claims up
The abject horror in the BK workers voice when Ted asked for the Ham and Cheese was palpable, you could almost hear the Dark Council threatening his family.
Hot ham and cheese is an off menu item you can order at Hardees, should've rolled up there instead of bk
BK sucks AND they won’t give you what you order
I'm glad to see the myth himself Tucker! What a guy
He tucks
You are not the only one who is happy about it🙂
that’s tucker?
an absolute unit
Definitely a guy of his times
There's something so chillingly intimidating about a fast food worker asking "are you sure?"
I think in Jack Manifold's video where he ordered it and I think the person at the cashier also said "Are you sure?" 😂
I saw someone in a different comment say the workers are required to ask that, and I just find that so fucking funny-
It's a bit of a massive pain in the ass to make, so we have to make sure people want it before starting the process.
At Arby’s of all places too 😂
@@crimsonchaosred
It looked disgusting in that video, it still looks disgusting in this one too
As someone who has worked in fast food the idea of a secret menu has always been funny because people online get it into their heads like its a real offical thing and then they go to the fast food place and are confronted with the reality that no one who works there has any idea what they are talking about. Secret menu items are actually either a customisation someone figures out or often something invented by staff members when they steal food on their break
But hear me out - I used to be one of those employees in highschool, I worked at McDonald's - try a mc flurry but put Carmel and half an apple pie in it and ask them to flurry it up. Caramel apple ice cream. So good 😊
My Dunkin has a secret menu drink that we came up with just for people that ask for a secret menu. We ask if the guest wants it hot, iced, or frozen, and we have a recipe for each.
“Steal food” is insane they make the company 6x the amount they eat
As someone that worked at Arby's for two years, I can confirm that every time someone dared to order a meat mountain, we held a secret prayer circle in the back to make sure that the poor mortal who ate the sandwich would live to see another day.
Did anyone who ordered it ever come back?
@@YourDad-dh6fj for their own sake i hope not
I appreciate the prayers 😅
I’ve had it twice. You can’t kill what’s already dead inside.
I got stupid excited everytime I got to make one
The way Ted created the Dark Council storyline added so much to this video, brilliant videomaking
added? nah bro, they're fucking real. watch your back out there.
Tucker is incredibly brave to sit so nonchalantly above the basketball sized hole in the passenger side of Teds "car".
"Basketball Football sized hole" to be exact.
quoting car makes this so much better
The hole is good for throwing a bun taco away.
@@slash_no_info it's football basketball
“Car” 💀
Former Burger King employee here, that person would have been repremanded at the store i worked at for how they handled that situation. I was taught that "have it your way" is so important that they would go above and beyond to get as close to what the customer wanted as possible. To let a customer who obviously wanted to buy something drive away with nothing would have been sacrilege and probably wouldnt get you fired for it but youd be on thin ice if it was a reoccurring thing.
What does Burger King make regularly that requires ham?
Hey Ted, Ex-Taco Bell employee here! In the two years I've worked there I can confirm the "Incredible Hulk" burrito is not a real thing. However! There is a genuine secret menu item called the "Superman Burrito" which you can get at specific locations. I know this exists because it was posted above the cook station. Here are the ingredients if you ever do a part 2!
*Superman Burrito*
Ask for a cheesy double beef burrito then add additionally
Potatoes
Sour cream
Guacamole
Crispy tortilla chips/red strips
thats sound great honestly
Sounds like a double beef beefy melt
Be careful your probably on the dark councils hitlist now
@@dis_root It is with a few things added onto it essentially
Oooh child things are gunna get tastier
They definitely keep asking you to pull around because you staying at the menu board for too long can be used against them. They need to pass folks through the line at a specific pace or their corporate overlords will reprimand them.
Whereas most other fast food places will start counting at the window, which is why they ask you to pull forward to wait
Thank you! I was getting so frustrated. For odd stuff like this GO IN at least haha
Used to work at a sonic, a timer would start as soon as you hit “send order” basically when the customer is done ordering at the speaker and you have 4 minutes to complete the order or your team will get in trouble :/
@@Ihavepinkeyegod i hated working there lol
True. Having worked fast food, they will actually yell at you of people take too long 🙄
imagine just working a normal shift at wendys and suddenly Ted Nivison appears, asking for four patties
i would be fearful
@@renmcmanus he didnt film anyone
@@renmcmanus okay true but at the same time who hurt you my dude
@Nitrolord it ain't that deep some people just don't want to be filmed
my quest for ted to finally admit his last name *is* actually nivision
And his first name is actually Teld
WE WON'T ALLOW IT. GIVE UP, OR WE WILL DO WHAT WE DID TO SCHLATT.
It's funny that you called him Ted Nivision when everyone knows his name is actually Ned Tivison.
Hello funny berd man
BERD
Bro Ted your friend needs to be in more videos. This guy hits his lines every time. The humor is immaculate between you two. Thanks for this one big Chief
Agreed
He appears more on chuckle sandwich :]
It’s funny cause a lot of these things are so localized and are usually just employee creations that a customer thinks is “secret menu” company wide but it’s just some dude named Blake in Ohio who got bored one day and made something different and then told his buddy who told their buddy and so on
"Blake" is a goddamn stoner supreme.
@@ZebraLuv ahahahaha I wasn’t gonna say it
100℅ employee creations are always the most creative with their food.
i had to scroll too far to find this. im sitting here mad that im even watching this crap, trying to figure out why people think the concept of a "secret menu" exists. people are stupid
@@CaedusX exactly why not just have it on the menu? There’s no point to a secret menu 🤣
I love that Ted is known as "The Podcast Guy." Thats what that person recognized you for- as if you haven't been to every Rainforest Cafe location in North America (+Canada)
hate to break it to you but Canada is indeed in North America
“North America + Canada”
🇨🇦 The Canadian Continent 🇨🇦
@@pricessLeopard112 Well yeah, you can't add Canada if it's not in North America.
@@ViolentPacifist88 huh? to be clear, North America = USA + Canada + Mexico. so saying North America + Canada is redundant lmao
i love that BK worker who was like "No. I'm not allowed" you can tell this guy absoloutely could if he wanted to but he just didnt and acted like he was prevented from.
I doubt it. Management for places like that tend to be really bad and a lot of times they take their job way too fucking seriously. I don't even think Burger King carries ham. He asked from an item from like 2014-2015.
Edit: They carry ham during breakfast so I imagine if he didn't go early in the morning that's why. They will not give you breakfast items if it's not breakfast same as mcdonalds. If he did go early it probably was management being assholes. I can't even begin to tell you how bad fast food managers can be.
@@psychwardbarbie I mean true management for these places usually suck but something about his responses just scream “not on the menu, not doing it.”
@†XΞZIAN† I mean maybe. I don't blame him though if that's the case. It's a whole mood imo.
the dark council had a gun at his head
@@psychwardbarbie so much for "have it your way" lol
I worked at Starbucks and we never had a problem with secret menu items, but PLEASE have the recipe. I got so tired of people who would ask but had no idea was in it. If they were in the drive through, I would tell them to pull forward and either park and figure it out, or come inside 😅
as someone who worked at Arby's, we were literally not allowed to mention what a meat mountain was to anyone
I can also confirm the meat mountain has its own special button on the register that will take a piece of every workers soul to put in the sandwich
I ordered one when they used to advertise it and the manager came out and thanked me. He was thrilled that I ordered it.
i love that the wendy’s worker most likely saw this video. and the fact that the fans will actually do anything for you.
It's because fans know that The Dark Council is nothing next to Ted and his Louisville Slugger
Time to start a cult
It disappointed me greatly to see they didn’t originally allow him to order the meat cube 😞 I work at a wendys and we often enough have people ordering t-Rex burgers and we HAVE to make it, which is like, 9 Patties 😅😅
@@darhkcave8688 when I worked at Wendy’s we also couldn’t turn down requests like that. Most patties we had to put on something was 6 though.
Poor Tucker is struggling to eat while also trying not to slip through the hole in the truck. Your so brave soldier
Secret menu items usually exist because the store has all the ingredients there to make it. It's just not on the menu. If you've ever worked in a kitchen at any fast food chain you know what I mean. Pretty much ever burger or item is just a different combination of the same things in every other menu item. The only difficult part is if it had a special sauce that is no longer supplied. You have a few hurdles like the cashier saying "no sorry we don't sell that" and there being no employees who actually remember how to make it. But typically you can get anything they used to sell.
as a former bk employee the ham and cheese DOES exist, i've made it countless times. they must have just not wanted to make it😭
It sounds like, from what I've heard on other accounts, that ham could just be a breakfast exclusive there, and the "I'm not allowed to" is them saying they literally can't make anything with ham that late in the day without getting in trouble
@@damienearl8302 ehh it could be, we usually would just run in the back and grab some if someone ordered it. ppl ordering it was pretty rare so we'd make it at any point in the day, but every location is for sure different
as a current one i have no clue what that is 😭 it’s not on the terminal what would we even ring it up as
Sounds to me like the strictness of the shadow council has increased
@@trtiary you would ring it up as a ham and cheese croissant sub burger bun😂
Incredibly brave of Tucker to willingly sit in the basketball sized hole in Ted's "Car", thank you for your service Tucker.
dont forget its a football basketball sized hole
@@cottoncandysans It's like driving a skateboard
you mean basketball football sized hole
I worked at Arby's for 2 years and when someone ordered meat mountain, we warned them very in depth and wished them luck on surviving. No one ever took it seriously they just laughed. They regretted it
Can I climb your meat mountain?
I offer this and two 6 piece cheese sticks with no drink as a challenge to any arbys enthusiast
I could be wrong but I swear I remember seeing commercials for the meat mountain as a kid for some limited time thing
It's not bad; I had it and had room for fries but intaking twice the daily allotment of protein in a single sandwich threw me all out of wack for the rest of the day.
Ive never regretted a Meat Mountain. I’ve probably have had one at least 6 times. Though I appreciate the concern.
The emotions I felt when the Wendy's Worker said that 4 patties were possible are indescribable.
The Burger King guy being so adamant that the secret item didn't exist makes me more confident that it does actually exist but is only for Dark Council members, like that guy clearly was.
So its a real thing i had them when i was a kid they where a breakfast item and came on a croissant from what i remember but you could also get them for lunch on a bun, they discontinued them from what i last heard :(
I work a bk and the ham and cheese sandwich isn't at all locations. Just a few.
@@jordyndrumbore2146 isn't it just the croissantwich ham on a burger bun with cheese?
@@go-away-5555 similar but not rlly. The ham and cheese is on an original chicken bun, with ham, cheese, onion, lettuce, tomatoe, and mayo. You can get it cold or hot.
But I do think it's made differently at other locations. This is just how the one I work at makes it
I have to say, as someone who gets secret menu items the 3 rules are : Be polite when asking when possible, go inside to order your item as using up drive thru time is stressful to employees, and finally make sure you know what to order in order to make the item yourself
As an Arby's employee, I can say 2 things. 1. Everyone at that specific Arby's hated you for the rest of the night. 2. You have more secrets to find
......secrets like the dead body in the back??
yo it's steve univer from hit cartoon steeve unviers
Also an Arby's employee here. 1. Yeah the definitely hated him. 2. I don't think the other secrets are worth finding 😂
Is your Arby's also shrinking down cup sizes
@@zephenson mine is lol-
As a fast food worker the dark council is just regular workers who hate it when you ask for weird ass named shit from a menu that we know nothing about and act as if we are expected to know it even though it's not on the official menu.
What’s even worse is when there’s an extensive secret menu like with in & out and some tik tok trend that makes everyone think there’s a secret menu item which doesn’t really exist
I didn't know William Afton was working in fast food these days, we should add that to the timeline /j
Thank you!
Cope 💀
I work at a fast food restaurant. I really don't get why a customer inquiring about an item they've been led to believe you would be aware of would be so primally infuriating to you. We work in an industry that, at its core, provides a service.
the idea of an employee saying “are you sure?” when you order something is very funny to me
Sometimes it’s necessary. I work at a pizza place, and dude walked in and said “Small pizza with everything on it.”
“Everything” is about 30ish toppings. Had to ask “are you sure” and eventually talked him down to a small Combination lol
@@beanieguitarguy4070 you say "talked him down" like it was a suicide attempt
@@jamiejam9976 I mean… A pizza with anchovies, artichokes, and pineapple all together sounds like a form of self harm lol
@@beanieguitarguy4070That sounds revolting
One time I was driving through Wendy's with a friend and I was starving so I asked for a triple baconator. The response was "Uhh...are you sure?" Response " Yes I'm sure. "You know that's three patties right?" Response "Yep." "Ok...." This poor employee had genuine concern in her voice about this interaction and order, it was hilarious.
Probably feels guilty about feeding peoples unhealthy food addictions when she gets orders like that.
Probably because 90% of people who order that are dead by 30 from obesity

@@Scremit's the same thing except for if it was on TikTok we probably actually know what you're talking about... There is no such thing as a secret menu and when people order drinks under a name but don't have the recipe we can't make it.

@@daltonrittenhouse8217 bro what did you say
@@daltonrittenhouse8217tell us what you said no balls
BK employee here. The closest thing to a "secret menu" we have are items that used to be featured on the menu that were taken off due to not being very popular - we still have the stuff to make it in our kitchen, but it's usually a 50/50 if the cashier will be able to ring you up for it because sometimes they get taken off of our registers, meaning we'd have to add-on all of those ingredients onto a basic sandwich, which usually means up-charges.
I'm sorry, but calling a combination of several menu items a secret menu item is like calling pissy shities a secret item.
What I mean by this is that you will not complete your journey until you face the pissy shities
What
Enrique is fuckin preaching rn. Take notes y'all
Idk what you said, but you said it well, tenno
speaking facts
Sorry what why is this pinned
The worker at Wendy's who knew you and made the sandwich for that reason alone is the unsung hero of this video ✊
I shall sing for your praise, you absolute legend
So strange because here in Canada you can add an extra patty to any sandwich including the Dave's triple
Bane from The Dark Knight Rises "This unsung hero will give Ned the Meat Cube!"
The Hero went against the Dark Council for Ted
I love that Ted is perfectly ok with putting his friends in videos. It brings a very unique perspective and commentary from people who don't entertain for a living. I wish more people did this.
Oh hell yeah I got a Ted like. Love that guy.
@@lampshade6579 Well, Tucker is another TH-camr, so in this case, he's not someone who doesn't entertain for a living.
But generally, I agree.
I can FEEL the pain of all minimum wage fast food workers
No one seemed upset though. The Burger King person laughed when they pulled up to the drive thru. I told another guy in this comment section, I'm a fast food worker, and worse, I used to be a janitor. Both times I've had people defecate on the floor of the bathroom. A guy once told me he worked at Taco Bell and found a used condom in the bathroom and a shirt saturated with urine in the parking lot on a frigid December day, meaning it froze solid.
Being asked a question about the menu is the least of our worries.
If you get this upset over someone asking about a menu item then you have a good life
Oh no they gotta add an extra patty 😮😭
the real dark secret in this video is the carefully crafted camera angles that hide the basketball sized hole in the floor of the passenger seat, I'm impressed Tucker managed to keep so cool while desperately trying not to fall through
Basketball football sized hole*
Football basketball size hole*
While filming this, Ted actually ran me over. I'm paralyzed from the waist down now, thanks Ted. ❤️ 🥰

@Axolel what the heck man 😨
It's pretty wild that they refused to make certain additions to some of those meal items. I worked at Taco Bell in high school and if people were willing to pay for it we would make literally anything.
Yeah the worker knew nothing you can do it even on the app
Tbh I've had the worst experience with taco bell employees. I've asked the window person one time to give me a minute and he said something like just order and I got so angry. It wasn't even busy and I didn't take that long is was like 5 seconds later. (Edit: if it wasn't already clear enough, I mean in comparison with other fast food restaurants)
@@big.muscles.ohyeah in my opinion subway and Jamba Juice is healthy. Let’s take the smooth talkin mango for example the ingredients are simple:oatmilk ,mangos ,pineapples ,organic agave. And they have a lot that are like that. So tell me why you don’t think it’s healthy? Is it because of how much sugar is listed in the drinks? Fruit sugar is healthy and fruit has a lot of sugar. It’s like people saying the brand naked isn’t healthy because like I don’t understand how people came to that conclusion their ingredients are simple no add ins and especially no sugar add ins. Subway is still pretty healthy depending on what you get but subway is a different genre when it come to they serve subs
@@big.muscles.ohyeah strawberry wild is another healthy one I know for a fact :apple pear strawberry juice blend fat free vanilla frozen yogurt strawberries bananas. Smooth talkin mango is my favorite besides also mango a go go but that has pineapple sherbet even though sherbet is healthier than regular ice cream it’s not that healthy so really anything with ice cream at Jamba isn’t that healthy. While most the time the popular ones are not that healthy. I can say there’s a lot of just simple ones at Jamba. Also strawberry wild is another favorite of mine so I knew that one instantly
@@big.muscles.ohyeah I actually used to get the strawberry whirl but I don’t see it on there menu anymore
The second hand embarrassment of watching you order secret menu items.
Arby's Employee: "Are you sure?"
Ted: "Yes"
Employee: *Opens door, looks around and sees the coast is clear, steps back inside and locks the door* "Follow me"
Trudy, cancel all my calls and appointments for the rest of the day
There’s just a vault in the back with thousands of meat mountains
Used to work for Arby’s, making the meat mountain was…. 😭
As a Chick-fil-a employee I can help with our secret menu items:
- mac n cheese with bacon
- chilled grilled sandwich (I think; it’s on the catering menu)
- essentially any salad combination you can think of
I’m sure there’s more but I can’t think of them. These are the big three
Its probably location dependent, but some locations may have these available
• Substitute the Frosted Lemonade for any other soft drink frosted. Most notably Root Beer for a Root Beer Float.
• Spicy burrito/bowl in place of the usual chicken that the breakfast scramble comes with.
• Egg White Grill Biscuit instead of a Muffin, not visible on the menu but is an option on the POS hardware.
• Probably not that secret, but our location sells 8oz bottles of sauce, similar to the 16oz bottles you may find in stores. CFA, Ranch, BBQ, Polynesian, and I think Honey Mustard.
Obviously go in with the expectation that you might be turned down, but our location allows these to be done. Don't be the 9th person in the same day to ask for something you saw on TikTok
Ours has subs on the catering menu, but they're not great. Peppermint frosted coffee in the winter is a fun one, as well as cheese sauce which very few locations actually serve. And you can usually get a veggie or spicy wrap, although kitchen will not appreciate you. Also, do your best not to order carbonated frosted beverages as they will typically explode across newer employees not used to their weird composition.
Careful, the Council's out for you now that you revealed it.
and the frosted strawberry lemonade and 30 count nuggets
Frosted chicken noodle soup!
I HATED working at Starbucks years ago when the term secret menu started becoming a big thing. We had set drink rules, and people would come in saying "I want to order off the secret menu. Let me get a Butterbeer" or whatever. I had to tell them outright. "Secret menu's not real, tell me exactly how you want your drink and what you want in it."
People would get huffy about it but like just because some blogger said some buzzwords people automatically think it's real.
To this day hearing "secret menu" pisses me off. I hate when companies play into it for a buck because I remember how difficult it would make an already busy day.
Well now I'm just infinitely curious what a Butterbeer is at starbucks
Ya, I hate it when I work at a place that makes stuff and people ask me to make them stuff. The nerve!
@@Underpantsniper I think it's more "We were never trained for this specific drink, you're gonna have to explain how you want it or I'll have no clue what you want."
Same story at mcdonald's- bloggers and tik tokkers would just invent items that did not exist in the system(and were either not possible or would cost a lot) and customers would get mad when I explained this to them. I'm looking at you, mcbrunch burger.
I'm a current Starbucks worker and this video like activated something vile in me after a particularly excruciating shift today lmao
“nothing *today* ” is a hilarious response to “what’s the weirdest thing you’ve got”
I like how Ted said “see ya in a month” like this man knows his realistic TH-cam schedule and I appreciate that ❤
Anyone else blown away by the fact that taco bell can have a menu consisting of 6 ingredients and still somehow constantly be the topic of videos like this.
Saw a tbell eat the menu video and they basically said it just taste of more of the same with a different name
@@GoomerNotABoomer ProZD?
70% of mexican food is just meat, salsa and tortilla. It seems accurate to me.
@@ImmAndreZ probably try guys
@@hotmealraja @dnb I have seen both actually and they do in there videos say the same thing
The Tacobell one cracked me up, the enchirito is just a regular menu item that was taken off the menu for a while due to low sales, but is a fan favorite of the older demographic of tacobell customers.
the change in ted’s expression from 5:55 to 6:01 is incredible
Definitely an "I'm smiling bc I don't wanna be a dick but also fu" kind of smile 💀
Heisenberg moment
That mask slipped 😶
Patrick Bateman moment
I was looking for this comment lol
Secret menu items always just seemed like a " How can I best piss off this fast food worker?" Kinda thing
Why? Almost all of their register systems have the ability to add items to a sandwich. It's not that hard. More of lazy employees wanting something else to bitch about when they aren't crying about food for writing fast food or comparing they actually have to do their job.
@@brianatkinson8164 tell me you've never worked retail workout telling me you've never worked retail
@@ColourlessQueen fast food isn't retail
@@brianatkinson8164 my guy, I work at a fast food place. Even on the menu customisations are things that the standard packaging doesnt handle well and head office will refuse to make packaging bigger to accommodate perfectly valid customisations. Where I work doesnt have a secret menu but if it did, itd just be a massive pain in the ass because we cant physically package it. Literally nothing to do with laziness.
@@brianatkinson8164 At some places you just can’t, for various reasons, personally edit menu items down to each ingredient. At other places they’re much more willing to do this for you if you explain what you want removed/added than if you give them some random Marvel name a teenager in Wisconsin came up with to describe his slightly customized 5-layer burrito.
Ted WOULD BE the type of guy to abuse his stardom to get something called a Meat Cube tbh
Ted using his clout at the Wendy's is so funny 😂
We absolutely need more Tucker in these vids. I really don't know how he didn't fall through the football/basketball sized hole in the passenger seat.
Truueeeee
because he’s bigger than a football/basketball, duh. kinda obvious if you think about it
@@SuperEljafru Had it occured to you, that maybe I was goofing Professor Obvious?
@@TylerL220 actually, i don’t have a phd. i’m still working on my master’s. AND i’m goofier, checkmate + i’ve got your nose
I worked at an Arby's for about a year. The only people who ordered the Meat Mountain were teenagers who were doing dares and some middle age folks who did it just for fun. It always brings fun to the employees to watch. I highly recommend ordering it. Just do it when they are slow and bored, please don't do it in the middle of a lunch rush lol
I worked at Arby’s too, burger was so god damn big we had to use the sheets that were meant to go under the fry station just to wrap those suckers
ted seems like the type of guy to see the worst secret menu item, ask “is anyone gonna order that?” and not wait for an answer
Fun Fact: The meat mountain has been known to literally be responsible for heart attacks. If anything, that cashier was looking out for you.
Worked at a Five Guys for 2 years. Can confirm that the only secret menu item that is actually secret (or even a hack at all) would be the patty melt. Also, I'm almost certain that if you found someone willing to make you a double grilled cheese burger, the grease alone would probably kill you.
I work at five guys, we make the double patty grilled cheeseburger a lot but I never see the same people order it twice 💀
I worked at a Jimmy Johns as a sandwich maker for about 4 months. One time someone came in and ordered the "HasselHoff". I had no idea what he was talking about until my manager ran over and whispered in my ear "secret menu, ill show you". Then after we made it i was like ok, what else is on the secret menu? And he legitimately told me "Ill tell you when your older". I think he meant older as in work there longer, but that made me legit mad lol. I was genuinely thinking "bro i cant even help customers if you withhold that from me".... Go give em a try Ted!!
your manager was messing with you lol
I'll tell you when you're older, like he's your father or something I'm dead
Oh cool, you remember what was on it?
I worked at jimmy johns too I forget how the conversation started but my manager told me about the double gut buster I recall it was like a gargantuan just extra of every meat. Hope I’m
Not killed for sharing this
@@Isaac-tp9wv it’s the “Dubbagutbusta” ur not gonna get killed, there’s a button for it in the manager menu btw
the subtle "unlimited bacon but no games reference" when you were talking about the meat mountain killed me 💀
The good ol days 😔
NO BACON AND NO GAMES
Thank you, I was hoping someone in the comments would notice this.
God, remember Machinima Respawn?
my favorite secret menu item from Chicken-Fila is the “chicken sandwich with mayo.” normally they don’t put any condiments on their sandwiches, but if you ask for a mayo packet you can do it yourself 👌
Underrated comment this is literally what all these stupid "secret" items are
One of the more well-known secret menu items in the fast food industry (at least where I live, not sure if it's known about nationwide) is the McGangbang at McDonald's. Back in high school, my friends and I would stop by our local McDonald's and order a McDouble and a McChicken and place the McChicken between the beef patties of the McDouble, forming the McGangbang. We then discovered that if you asked the employees at that McDonald's for a McGangbang specifically, they would neatly assemble it for you and serve it to you in a Big Mac box. So we tried it, and it worked countless times.
That was until one day, I showed up and there was a new employee working the register, and I didn't know her from school, but she must have been a sophomore. So it was likely her first job in fast food, which meant she was probably less experienced with people ordering secret menu items. But I figured that if she was working at that particular McDonald's, she would have been made aware of the McGangbang and not to question it when someone ordered it. So, hesitantly, I decided to order it as such, only to be met with an uncomfortable look and nervous laughter before about ten seconds of awkward silence, followed by "excuse me?"
The embarrassment that overcame me was immeasurable and I swiftly apologized profusely and explained what it was and that I can see how such an order could be interpreted by someone who wasn't aware of it. I ended up getting the McGangbang that day, though they forgot the inner buns that were normally contributed by the McChicken, and I ate it in complete shame. From that day forward, I vowed to myself to never order another McGangbang. Shortly after, McDonald's raised the price of the McDouble by a whole dollar, which was a complete L move on their part.
how has no one commented on this masterpiece yet
We also called them McSlamJams. They are super good. Our manager would get mad though if someone ordered them when she was there lol
My brother told me about that one
Bite of mcgangbang, a couple fries and a swish of mcd sweet tea was such a great combination of flavors during high school lmfao
This is such a genius video idea. I'm always blown away by the quality of Ted's productions, but this one was a cut above. Genuinely impressed!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@TedNivison Haha yeah, I enjoyed it too! I enjoyed it more than the time you chased me down with a chainsaw screaming and shouting like a caveman and I had to hide in the sewers for 12 hours before you finally walked away like nothing ever happened!
Chick-fil-a actually does have one legitimate secret menu item: The strawberry frosted lemonade. And its ACTUALLY really good.
How does one order that
@@PttyBlue43if you're doing a mobile order just ask for strawberry in the extra comments area. If you're in person just ask for it! Easy to make we just use the strawberry flavoring for our shakes and use it with the frosted lemonade!
@@captainspaceface6188 Thanks!
If you’re in person you can just ask for a strawberry frosted lemonade and most employees wouldn’t bat an eye. Well, they might. It’s pretty rare people order it considering it’s not advertised or listed anywhere lol
You can also mix the seasonal peppermint and autumn spice syrup into the frosted coffee and even add whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and cookies, as we have designated ways to ring that up
I used to work for Wendy's, and I know AS A FACT that the register has a little submenu that you can use to modify any sandwich, and one of the options is to add an extra patty of either size. You almost got scammed
Poor Ned. I heard he felt so bad about asking for these secret menu items that he shot himself 5 times in the back of the head, slipped on some radioactive tea down multiple flights of stairs, and right out a window. Such an unfortunate and tragic accidental death accident. The dark council sends its condolences.
I was always baffled by the US obsession with these 'secret menu items' when they're normally just like 'hamburger but they remove the onion'
We love shit food and heart disease
Hamburger but you remove the onion? You mean the famous Jack In The Box Wild Style No Allium Deluxewich?
To be fair the animal style sauce on Inn and Out stuff was fairly unique but… it’s not that good
@@velfaern1716 the thing is animal style sauce is completely ununique, and has been around since like the 50s
yeah they're all just customizations you can do because most places just let you customize your order
Former Ohio
taco bell employee here. The enchirito used to be a real menu item, but they discontinued years ago.
All the ingredients are still there though, so older employees still know the recipe
Worked at a couple different Taco Bells back in 2018-2020. To get an enchirito, order a bean burrito with whatever meat you'd like added, ask for the red sauce and cheese on the side, and assemble. 😎
Former Idaho Taco Bell Manager here. Waay back in 2008. I came here agree with Caleb here. 90% of secret menu items are just discontinued items or basic substitutions. It's like going to McDonalds and adding cheese to a chicken sandwich and calling it the "armageddon bomb".
@@NicolasBelmont also, the chicken burrito (which used to cost a similar amount to the 5 layer) can be created by getting a bean and rice burrito, removing beans, adding chicken and avocado ranch. Similar price point to the 5 layer today.
They have food in Ohio?
Yeah, it was the Smothered Burrito, right? I friggin loved that thing…
Worked 6 years at Taco Bell, if you came in and asked for an incredible hulk, I would have given you a half Baja Blast half regular Mtn Dew. T Bell's secret menu is trying to order food items that were discontinued.
A friend of mine used to order "the mcgangbang" from McDonald's. From what I can recall it was an entire mcchicken sandwich placed between the 2 meat patties of a mcdouble.
Don't forget the side of small fries that goes under the bottom patty!
We called that a McChurger. Sweet and sour sauce inside too.
You nailed it
Have had it several times, but they won't make it. Just have to order the chicken sandwich and a McDouble and construct it yourself
@@philipramsden4975 Are you telling me that people actually try to order these things instead of getting the individual items off the menu and making it themselves? Bro...
Good thing Ted had the “podcast guy” passive buff to counter the Dark Council debuffs
As someone who used to work at Arby's, nobody is happy when the meat mountain is ordered. The cook is mad they have to spend 5 minutes making it, the cashier is mad they have to deal with an usually obese customer drooling over the counter waiting on it, it's the most expensive thing there, and your doctors mad you ate a whole day's worth of calories in 2 minutes
I'm a fan of Tucker. He brings an energy to the table .
It’s funny how the manager said “we don’t normally do that” at Taco Bell, when I’ve been told to make exactly what the customer wants if we sell it
Exactly like you can add and remove things it would probably be easier to do in the app lol
I was just thinking that. On the taco bell app you can add remove and customize things however you want.
They don't do substitutions. You have to pay extra for whatever ingredient you want instead, in this case guacamole, but you can get whatever you want.
I love how even when they're denied they're polite to the workers
Yeah, I would say they're normal but I know this is not standard behavior everywhere
@@FeeshUnofficial yeah :(
I used to work at Chick-fil-A and I hated when people would come in and try using code words like they were supposed to mean something to me. Like “can I get the barnyard breakfast burrito 😉”
@Waawaaweewaa_ let me guess, you think ordering from the “secret menu” makes you special too. I’m sorry to insult your fragile sense of self
I would just make them something that looks about right.
uhhh can I get the triple layered chicken explosive mule horse burger burrito
Cant believe Tucker felt safe with that basketball sized hole in the bottom of the vehicle
*Football-Basketball sized hole*
It's a shame that Ted cut the cameras before pulling out his baseball bat and shattering that poor worker's kneecaps for making the mistake of addressing him by name. Great video!
Finding a del taco that’s both open and/or doesn’t give you good poisoning is a secret menu item in it of itself
the best part of secret menus is that almost no employees of these places have ever heard of anything on them
I'll never forget my experience with meeting Ted, I was hiking in a forest at night and all of a sudden he appeared and started ripping out my teeth, never knew I needed dentures until he came along, what a guy!
