BBC show of these two traveling eating at fancy posh restaurants and then eating the street food/hole in the wall places of all the locations they visit and see which is better. I'd watch.
I appreciate that the crew laughs! So many times on these types of shows the crew is invisible, and I think it really harms how well comedians can perform. Comedians need laughs!!
@@inspectahwoke5746 Mate you have “woke” in your name used as a pejorative. I can’t imagine you’re the barometer of what’s funny. Also, as I said, humour is subjective so you can’t declaratively state that something IS or ISNT funny. You might like Mrs. Brown’s Boys and if that’s what’s funny to you. I can’t say it isn’t.
James whilst positively complementing the taste of prawns... "Mmmm...you can tell they used to know each other!" 🤣🤣🤣 ... was not expecting that kind of instant humour.
5:51 I’m having flashbacks to when James actually ate a whole tub of pb ice cream on “Big fat quiz of 2021” (or 2020?) and had a full blown sugar rush 😅😂
"Off Menu" is such a great podcast - for those who don't know, these two get a special guest who discusses their dream menu. Starter, side dish, main course, dessert and drink - NOT IN THAT ORDER!
@@celinavivian1162 from my understanding, type 1s have no insulin production. Our own bodies betrayed us and destroyed the pancreas killing cells. Type 2 diabetes is where the pancreas creates insulin that can't be used properly, or not enough. Type 2 at times can be managed by diet, but unfortunately I've not come across a diet which can restore dead cells. Type 1s need insulin, but sometimes type 2s need extra insulin too. Diabetes UK has lots of really accessible education pieces if you want to learn more 😊
@@celinavivian1162 there's a lot of differences, a quick Google search will help you out. But very briefly Type 1 from young age, needs insulin, type 2 generally associated with obesity doesn't necessarily need insulin.
@@celinavivian1162 Type 1 you're born with and has it for life. Type 2 people get from incredibly bad diets/being fat. Type 1 cannot be cured and isn't your fault. Type 2 can be cured and is 100% your fault.
Love how Ed just casually does an insulin shot after the sugary stuff. Many people won't see that sort of thing in public and it's a great thing to show in a video for awareness. :)
Watching James Acaster and Ed Gamble judge posh snacks is the kind of content I never knew I needed, but now can't stop watching. My snack game will never be the same! OTR should have this fun episode too!
the way they both bit into the fab is insane. you're meant to eat the chocolate and sprinkles first, then lick the white bit and then the actual ice lolly part
Seeing Ed ALSO eating everything James was eating birthed conflicting emotions inside me. Was only resolved when I saw footage of the syringe, so thank you for including it!
I've been scrolling endlessly through the comments and I just have to stop and say, how is NO ONE talking about the final joke of the video: 9:18 "I'm Tumnus." - Ed Gamble [James glancing down at Ed's crotch/legs before returning to camera] "I can confirm." - James Acaster, clearing making a satyr/fawn joke. I couldn't breathe 🤣🤣
NOW I know why Ed Gamble looks familiar to this American-I used to watch Almost Royal with Ed and Amy Hoggart-He was Georgie and she was Poppy Carlton! So funny!
LoL the "choice foods were sus!" But a fun episode all in all. Acassters' dialogue alone is top notch fun! Also yeah peanut butter with chocolate is next to heaven!
“easy to win great taste in a year when no one could taste anything” I love him
Who doesn’t
He’s so funny
I thought i was the only one that noticed that hidden gem
that made me guffaw. JA is the best ❤️💜
When was this said? 🤣
The contrast between ed politely eating Turkish delight and james going absolutely feral over a fab dipped in sherbet is so funny😭
I find your choice of funny comment with crying emoji strange and disturbing 😂
Feral🤣
@Godzirra-San crying is funny emoji
but then to keep from being *too* dignified, Ed blows the extra sugar all over the camera crew 😜
Are we not going to talk about the absolute insanity of James' first bite on that fab?
How did he practically deep throat it?! It’s frozen haha
I’m so glad I saw this comment, I saw it happen and immediately looked to the comments ahahaha
I don't think I've ever been more worried about someone's mental state than James when he took that first bite. He's a danger to himself and others.
Is it normal to bite fabs? I only had them as a child but I could not even imagine biting an ice lolly
@@onetwo8932 I think we all know that it's not normal at all, and that anyone who does it should be ashamed of themselves enough to lock themselves away from the rest of us for as long as their heart is willing to put up with them.

Thanks for keeping in Ed using his insulin, it's such a normal thing for diabetics and yet we rarely see it.
I am glad I wasn't the only one worried about Ed's Diabetes
Never seen that ever, in person or in video, so that was new for me!
I felt the same way

He used his insulin needles to pop balloons on taskmaster. Lol

It is allways nice to se Ed being so open with his diabetes. It helps removing the stigma of having to inject insulin when others see.
I didn't even notice he did it! Didn't spot it
@@HORHAYY10 starts at around 8:08

That’s a myth.
You actually crash after having sugar.

It's not a whole show but there are a couple of episodes on youtube called Just Puddings where the two of them go around having sweets.
@@debran940 Oooooo thanks! I'll check it out.
James is so effortlessly funny it's unreal.
the way he ate that fab had me in stitches
The cadence and inflection of his voice coupled with his mannerisms is just too much. He can say or do literally anything and make it funny.
Nah, he's been working hard on it for a long time.
I appreciate that the crew laughs! So many times on these types of shows the crew is invisible, and I think it really harms how well comedians can perform. Comedians need laughs!!

- James Acaster, Taskmaster Season 7
Wonderful! I loved James being told that was his last mouthful of ice cream!!! 😂🤣
Now we need Greg Davies and Rhod Gilbert here as well!
This is an amazing suggestion! ❤
That sounds hilarious. I hope they take note and especially hope Rhod would be well enough to do it.
Love how Ed just casually does an insulin shot after the sugary stuff. Many people won't see that sort of thing in public and it's a great thing to show in a video for awareness. :)
I actually said "oh my god" as happy as I could when I saw these two got featured on Snack Wars!
Ed Gamble and James Acaster are two of my favourite snacks
yum
Watching James Acaster and Ed Gamble judge posh snacks is the kind of content I never knew I needed, but now can't stop watching. My snack game will never be the same! OTR should have this fun episode too!
5:19 "Easy to win great taste of the year when no one can taste anything" Brilliant!
I actually exclaimed 'oh my god!' after Ed (rightfully) compared James to Edmund from Narnia 😅
I love them both when they're doing their own thing, but Ed and James together is the best way to go, they bounce off each other perfectly.
Are we just going to sail by the fact that James renamed it a Fip Fab? Because that may be the most genius joke I've heard in a long time.
I see James Acaster, I click! Never disappointed.
Exactly!
I just knew James Acaster was gonna be a riot in this video 😂😂😂😂😂
they give such big bro little bro energy i love it
which is funny bc James is a year older
the way they both bit into the fab is insane. you're meant to eat the chocolate and sprinkles first, then lick the white bit and then the actual ice lolly part
But also it would be so cold as well 😂😭
Just listened to Paul’s episode when they said they wanted to be on this. Absolutely love them!
What a great combo. I had so much fun watching it. BUT! Seeing James I’m surprised they didn’t give him cabbage to try 😂
These two are going on celebrity hunted I believe on Channel 4! Can’t wait!
Oh shit that’s awesome whens it on
I'll be watching for the first time then!
@@Justgirlmustache end of this month sometime I believe?
Awesome! Really hope so.
How the fuck did he just eat half a FAB in one bite 😂😂
Love Ed saying his Tumnus after the Bridget Christie episode of Off Menu 😂
I'm surprised that you didn't give James a cabbage to eat!!!
Handed to him by his nemesis
You just reminded me of that story. So funny!
I genuinely gasped when James bit the ENTIRE top of the Fab off.
How was it not regular Turkish delight versus fry’s Turkish delight? Now that’s a real posh vs normal battle. They’re both so good.
Seeing Ed ALSO eating everything James was eating birthed conflicting emotions inside me. Was only resolved when I saw footage of the syringe, so thank you for including it!
Can watch them all night. Best episode!!
I've been scrolling endlessly through the comments and I just have to stop and say, how is NO ONE talking about the final joke of the video:
9:18
"I'm Tumnus." - Ed Gamble
[James glancing down at Ed's crotch/legs before returning to camera]
"I can confirm." - James Acaster, clearing making a satyr/fawn joke.
I couldn't breathe 🤣🤣
thank you ladbible for giving james some blimmies
It's strange seeing Ed try all the food too, when normally it's just James
Dude I love Off Menu. I can’t believe this joke from the podcast actually manifested 😂😂
omg as a t1d i almost cried when the insulin came out😭😭 slay
Can't believe Barratt let James down with no dip after he came dressed as a human dip dab!
When James says "I said we should go on and do Kettering..." it DOES sound an awful lot like "I said we should go on and do ketamine..."
😂 that's what I heard as well and was confused, like is that non-posh food. Kettering makes more sense 🤦😂
Turkish delight = Edmund from Narnia....I'm glad not to be alone in this....wow...that scene really impressed a lot of us!
As a fellow type one diabetic I wanna know how many units of insulin it took for Ed to survive this video LOL.
Yooo, we use similar pens! \o/ I had a green version ages ago, too.
Dude is diabetic and still tried all the sugary snacks. damn. Now that's dedication.
i feel like james really wanted to call the blini a "blimmie" at 1:07 but decided against it at the last second
This is quality 😂
“You can tell they all used to know each other”
"Nice plump prawn, you can tell they all used to know each other" 😂😂
1:53 James' little dance 🤣
Absolutely brilliant. One of the best. Love James and Ed, they are bloody hilarious!
James looks great in my 90s brownie uniform
Lol
James' analysis of the Angel Delight label had me creasing 😂
When Ed asked James if he wanted to tug the meat in his hand 🤣🤣🤣🤣
5:18 was so quick witted hahahaha
Aww hell yes I was having a bad day and some James Acaster is just what I need
NOW I know why Ed Gamble looks familiar to this American-I used to watch Almost Royal with Ed and Amy Hoggart-He was Georgie and she was Poppy Carlton! So funny!
I forgot Ed was diabetic and then the end came up and I was like "oh crap yeah I didn't even think of that"
Ed in this clip: Looking and acting like a regular human.
James in this clip: Clearly a vampire trying to blend in.
The best bit was the production team laughing ❤
I have a newfound respect for Ed Gambol casually taking his insulin. Thank you Mr. G!
LoL the "choice foods were sus!" But a fun episode all in all. Acassters' dialogue alone is top notch fun! Also yeah peanut butter with chocolate is next to heaven!
Love how normally he administered his insulin 👍
My jaw dropped when he bit the lolly 😂
oh my god i've been waiting for a video with these two for the longest time!!!
"Nice plum prawns... you can tell they all used to know each other" 😂😂😂
I'm glad I'm not the only one making insulin jokes after consuming sugar! T1 warriors represent! 💉
This whole vid was such a treat! And as a T1D, I love the insulin jokes and insulin use being normalized (rather than fetishized)🤘
As a god of entertainment, well done James for completing the assignment 👌🏼
the fact we didn’t get the ‘blimmy’ story for the bellini’s is a crime
Not having a lolly seems to be symbolic of James life some how?
I genuinely don’t believe James Acaster is human. He is a gecko, and you cannot convince me otherwise.
Love these two proper funny guys with a great podcast 👍🏻
Ed casually stabbing himself during the interview, as one does
He is a diabetic that is why
Gods of Entertainment! Genius! 😂😂
can we not ignore the fact that they are both dressed kind of like the peanut butter chocolate ice cream tub haha
I didn't know I needed this as bad ad I did - THANK YOU Gods of entertainment!! These two legends 😍
The chemistry is peanut butter-jelly levels of organic👌👌
My 2 favourite comedians of this era. Look how stoned they are 😂
Pair of absolute lads
I think my life goal is to appear on an episode of snack wars.
No joke. Got a dip dab the other day had two lollies in it. What are the chances I watch this as well.
Now I want to see the Ed & James in Narnia film.
James is still confused about the blini/blimi situation so went with ‘little crumpet’ instead lol
Shut UP! I don’t think I’ve EVER clicked a video faster in my LIFE!! I love the Off Menu podcast!
James invented Dip Fabs and it's going to be his go-to snack from now on
Ah, my favourite couple.
Thank the gods of entertainment for this.
I love him he is the mighty ruler of Acasternationnnnn
James just taking the whole best part of the fab in his month tho 😂 how didnt he get a brain freeze
OMG they manifested this on the Pod!!!!
