She probably got it from some journalists that write clickbait articles targeting obese people to accept their unhealthy diets. I don't see how anyone would deem this as being "toxic" or a bad thing. It's not a "fat burner," it's a healthier option to pure sugar chocolate bars.

You need to learn comprehensive listening. It wasn't about the amount, it's about it being front and center while there's a martini name and a confusing logo. Just put the calories on the back with a healthy slogan on the front.
@@wolfura brother you are adding add ons she clearly said "Toxic diet culture" because of 190 calories she isn't going to notice you so put down the sword and armor 🤡
Already had a huge success, knew this "commercial" would build the brand, knew 100% of 0 was 0, so they were not stingy with equity. Perfectly executed.
Latest update: The deal is still in place, but are in form of being finalized. Packages are still the same and are sold at Walmart and other big supermarkt chains. No word on whether their sales increased after their appearance on Shark Tank...
It’s not just because he felt like it lol. The producers make all of the men on the show read a suit. He’s stated that before in an interview. Maybe because it’s some of his last episodes they let him wear what he wanted.
Millennial here. We're actually getting sick of toxic body positivity. Fat shaming is bad, but pretending that it's bad to try to be healthy is idiotic.
Its probably because they lost $3.5 million in the previous year. And if you aren't paying close enough attention it's easy to miss another fact. He said that sales were $2.5 million in the previous year and they were projected to only hit close to $2 million in the following year. Also the fact they were willing to give away 40% of the company later on means that they didn't raise any venture capital and all of the money going into the business was their own. Daymond hates it when people come into the tank when people have raised a bunch of money.
Wow, they appear to be really confident about the business. To compare to the other entrepreneurs not wanting to give up another 1 or 2%, these two dudes knows what they trading their equities for. You can see Mark's approval from the start.
This is not their first rodeo. Most entrepreneurs that come on the shark tank have no previous experience structuring deals and don’t speak the deal making lingo. I’ll rewatch this episode multiple times to learn the vocabulary and deal terms.
@plannerjoy I really wouldn't take anything that happens on in the show too seriously versus actual business education. Most of it is actually negotiated after the episode behind the scene.
When you want a deal and you also know what you want, you get a frigging deal. Great pitch. No hesitation, no BS. I hope they nail it their goal of 50 million.
damn Doug is hella smart and hella good. one of the best entrepreneurs/businessman/negotiator i've ever seen on Shark Tank. very logical, very reasonable, very articulate, very down to earth. incredibly impressive gentleman.
I think in this situation it is because they owned Halo Top, so he gave them a lot more respect than he would treat someone lower on the totem pole. I noticed even Lori who would normally have blown up and left the deal after the "insult" still stayed in. They all seemed like they were talking to their peers rather than talking down to someone like they normally do.
This was a good Shark Tank video because it provided an example of a "higher level" of deal-making and savvy on the part of both the Sharks and the Business owners. I'll re-watch it to get a concise idea of the deal that was made, especially regarding their exit strategy and "threshholds.
20% and wanted a celeb to be the face to help push sales since in todays time. Influencers are taking over. Logan Paul with prime .the rock with his brand etc. then if they can guarantee sales after a certain number they get more equity. So everyone wins when they sell the company . Halo top taught these 2 men well
@@vegapreferred9344I still don’t get how the higher threshold is mandatory for the exit??? How will one profit from higher giveaway to the sharks for the sale and exit?
One of the best negotiations I've seen on ST. These brothers are sharp and have great business acumen. Great deal for both sides. This is what it's about!
What the hell is she talking about “toxic diet culture”. I can’t imagine anyone of any age being put off by the fact that the calories are displayed on the front of the package lol
This is my FAVORITE chocolate! I didn't know they were on Shark Tank! First I bought it for the calories, but then I started buying it for its cool. refreshing chocolate taste!
This was one of the most mutually beneficial, intellectual deals I've seen conducted on shark tank. They're totally going to make a ton of money together.
Might be lower in calories, but the ingredients are 🤮: Allulose, EPG (Modified Plant-Based Oil), SolubleCorn Fiber, Cocoa Processed with Alkali, Palm Kernel Oil, Sugar, Sunflower Lecithin, Natural Flavor
Millennial here... I want to see the calories on my food! This is not toxic diet culture. Chocolate is already an indulgence but if I can save a few calories... WHY NOT?
The chocolate has MCT oil, allulose, soluble corn fiber, Palm Kernal Oil, cocoa processed with alkali and EPG (a modified plant based oil). Even the cocoa is a modified version of itself. I'm all for reducing calories but I'm really concerned about using highly processed foods to get there.
This is probably the best shark tank pitch ever. The entrepreneurs were proven entrepreneurs with a great product, knew exactly what they wanted, didn't haggle over equity, the sharks understood this, and both parties went home feeling satisfied.
I’ve never seen a product on shark tank that I wanted IMMEDIATELY until this. Halo top is so good, when I’m dieting down I’ll literally have a pint every night and it’s 220-240 calories. A whole chocolate bar under 200 calories is a game changer
@@sma1616 you’re commenting about something you obviously know nothing about. Explain to me how macros work for dieting. Explain how weight is actually lost. When you can’t, I’ll laugh
@@sma1616 again since you wanna be ignorant and comment on something you know nothing about, I’ll explain it to not only you but any normal person that doesn’t know how it works but isn’t ignorant enough to comment. One pound is equal to roughly 3,500 calories. To lose weight, you need to be in a caloric deficit. I’ll dumb it down. Say your maintenance calorie intake is 2500 calories, meaning if you eat 2500 calories a day and don’t workout or any type of exercise, you will not gain or lose weight. So to lose a pound a week, a person must eat 2000 calories a day. 500 UNDER maintenance per day. 500x7=3500. Now a whole pint that’s 240 calories and 20 grams of protein is a big serving, a ton of protein for very little calories. It’s an excellent dieting/cutting food. If you still don’t understand, I can’t help. I can assume though you probably need a diet
6:38 that's when you know Mark was going to give them a better deal at higher evaluation. They could probably have gotten Mark and Lori with a lower percentage.
Glad this deal didn't go through because the product isn't chocolate. Some concoction of chemicals I assume similar to Halo Too. Excellent business men 100% but this product isn't worth consuming.
Possibly one of the smartest entrepreneurs on the show to date. The speed and knowledge of the numbers to work out Mark and Loris offer almost instantaneously and turn it around like that.... Super impressive.. Congrats
Lori saying she didn't know that the last name Gatspy was a chocolate bar is a silly statement. Hershey is also a last name, and they built their brand overtime to be ubiquitous with chocolate.
I love how the brothers leave all the fantasies behind and try to make a deal at almost any cost to save the brand. Thats how a true entrepreneur does IMO, not cherrypicking on unnecessary details.
Dark chocolate may have more calories but its the real deal and healthy in moderation. Eating an entire bar of this with fake sugar and "natural flavors" is not a healthier option.
Can everyone please stop talking about Millennials as if there is a hive mind. Just because one part of a group has an issue with the diet culture does not mean that every Millennial does. It's no different than the so-called Greatest Generation. The broken systems, extreme debt, and massively divided country is due to the garbage that the bulk if the Greatest Generation left us. Not all of them destroyed this country, just as not all of them were great.
“I just love how this chocolate has low calories, an excellent taste, and 2 very dedicated owners. I actually bought this for my kids yesterday after school, and they loved it. For those reasons, I’m out”- Baarbra
There’s absolutely no reason why the owners of something so successful as halo top needs to be on the show. That’s not why the show was created. They are already very well established. They don’t need sharks.
Tried HaloTop IceCream and if you dont have taste buds, then yes, they are right. If you have taste buds, you will taste a massive difference on flavor
I find it funny that Damond and the crew entertain this company when there has been episodes where they tear apart small brands because they arent struggling or startup enough
It’s more about the idea of bouncing from one trendy diet to another and never actually changing your lifestyle. Like buying those diet shakes for a month before you give up and try something else. No idea how she’s using it here, don’t think she knows what she’s saying…
I really don't care how many calories are in chocolate. I'm eating it because it tastes good not for calories. That being said, if this show didn't exist I promise you I would pass this product up because of what Lori said - the packaging doesn't tell me what it is. As a millenial that doesn't drink (or smoke) seeing the martini glass would primarily be the reason I'd pass.
if someone would think the calories being on the front is "toxic diet culture" maybe they're the problem
Knowing is half the battle
I'm a millennial and that never crossed my mind, on the contrary, I'd buy that knowing I can eat the whole thing and it's less than 200 calories 😅
It’s cause of feminism
Old people syndrome. Delusional
Toxic diet culture is someone who always worries about calories. Someone like me
Millennial here…. Love that the calories are front and center and love that it’s under 200 calories. Since when is being health conscience toxic????

I’m a millennial and never heard the phrase “toxic diet culture”. What echo chamber did she get that from
It's word salad. Be careful it might become like how the word "woke" started according to Bill Burr.
She probably got it from some journalists that write clickbait articles targeting obese people to accept their unhealthy diets. I don't see how anyone would deem this as being "toxic" or a bad thing. It's not a "fat burner," it's a healthier option to pure sugar chocolate bars.

Tried HaloTop IceCream and if you dont have taste buds, then yes, they are right. If you have taste buds, you will taste a massive difference on flavor
Really liked their pitch pure confidence out there
Thank you!!
@@gatsbychocolate262 yoo congrats! Care to give an update?
I find it funny that Damond and the crew entertain this company when there has been episodes where they tear apart small brands because they arent struggling or startup enough
they contradict themselves A LOT depending on if they like the person or not
"Toxic diet culture" then makes a sexist comment about the packaging. Worst guest Shark ever!!
This was a great deal for the sharks. $250K for up to 40% of a company with millions of dollars in sales and the cofounder of Halo Top?
Mister wonderful didn't like that he missed that one 😅😅😅
I'm concerned about anyone ever saying "toxic diet culture". That's such a toxic way to view people trying to be healthy.
It’s more about the idea of bouncing from one trendy diet to another and never actually changing your lifestyle. Like buying those diet shakes for a month before you give up and try something else.
No idea how she’s using it here, don’t think she knows what she’s saying…
I really don't care how many calories are in chocolate. I'm eating it because it tastes good not for calories. That being said, if this show didn't exist I promise you I would pass this product up because of what Lori said - the packaging doesn't tell me what it is. As a millenial that doesn't drink (or smoke) seeing the martini glass would primarily be the reason I'd pass.
Isn’t this pretty much like Mr. Beast’s feastables
We have 3x less calories and way less sugar...and we taste WAY better :)
