I Tried World's Healthiest vs Unhealthiest Diet
903 segments
The world's healthiest diet versus the
world's unhealthiest diet. One has been
proven to add years to your life, the
other takes them away. It literally
kills you. But because I love food way
too much, I'm going to try them both to
see the real difference and if they
actually live up to their name. Let's go
eat.
I'm in Greece, specifically this cute
island called Knos to try the
Mediterranean diet. The healthiest diet
in the world. It is one of the most
beautiful places I've ever seen in my
entire life. Like look at it. I feel
like I'm living in a Greek yogurt
commercial. And I don't really know why,
but whenever I think of the
Mediterranean and the Mediterranean
diet, I just think of Greece and Greece
only. Probably because of all my 300
rewatches. That is such a good movie. I
love Greek god physiques. I love honey.
I love honey on Greek god physiques. I
love feta cheese. I love olive oil. The
first salad I ever tossed was a Greek
one. I miss you, Thanos. So, it's safe
to say I'm super excited.
Let's go get coffee. It's time to
conquer a full day of the Mediterranean
diet. And like I said, it all starts
with a cup of coffee. Hi, Dwayne. We got
into our cute little rental car we named
George and made our way over to this
small town called Chalky where I ordered
a traditional Greek coffee. I got a
double. As you can see, it says right
there. I'm just kidding. English is
right beside it. Greek coffee. Check. It
looks insanely cool. Probably the
coolest looking coffee I've ever gotten
in my entire life. Like, look at this
thing. It looks like a witch's potion.
Now, what we're going to notice in the
Mediterranean is that they like small
portions. They like small things in
general. So, maybe I should stay. I'm
really excited to try this.
Ooh. Okay. So, it didn't come with milk,
cream, or sugar. So, I guess
traditionally they take it strong and
black, which is how you should take
really everything ideally.
There's some grittiness to it. It is
extremely strong. Espresso is like
herbal tea in comparison.
>> The coffee is just so yummy. We're off
to a great start. And it's about to get
even better because breakfast has just
arrived.
>> You all knew it was coming. We got
ourselves Greek yogurt topped with
walnuts and fresh Greek honey. Greek
yogurt in Greece. I have not been this
excited to try something straight from
the source since I think Colia. Dave.
For someone that has been a diehard
Greek yogurt fan pretty much my entire
life, this moment before the first bite
was kind of a big deal.
>> You can see the freshness in this
yogurt. It has the thickness I desire.
>> I've had birthdays, graduations, and
even a wedding, but none of them hit
like this moment. This bowl of yogurt
was truly an experience. Like it it had
no right being that good.
>> Usually Greek yogurt I get at Walmart is
pretty sour. This is actually like a lot
more cheesy. a lot more like cream
cheese. You must milk the animals
differently here to extract like such a
creaminess. I have dreamt about tasting
a lot of things and I've tasted those
things. This is the closest to my
dreams. It is that good. I also
definitely know I'm going to be hungry
after this. But I think it's a lot
better than feeling sick after breakfast
that I know I will be after the world's
unhealthiest diet. You know when they
say it's like rude to ask a woman their
age? I wonder if it's rude to ask a
Greek what percent fat their yogurt is?
Because I'm dying to know, but I don't
know if that'd be rude. Do you think
that'd be rude? Cuz like I mean I'm I'm
used to 0%. This tastes like 11%. Now I
was doing some research and I saw that
the average male macros in the
Mediterranean was 183 g of carbs, 99 g
of fat, and 80 g of protein. Fat and
carbs are doable. The protein, however,
concerning. Hopefully a typo. If not,
we're going to have to go to a toga
party later and get some desperation
protein. Now, if you do all the math,
that comes out to like a little under
2,000 calories, which is extremely low.
We're cutting today. Now, typically
after coffee and breakfast, I will go to
the gym and get my workout in. But here,
the traditional and most popular way to
exercise is just walk around. So, we're
skipping the gym and it's time to
explore. Before we explore, there was
one thing I needed to find out.
>> This is a question. What percent fat is
the yogurt?
>> Two.
>> Only two?
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, okay.
[Music]
[Music]
Okay.
>> Apparently, eating a Mediterranean diet
may be as beneficial for health as
walking an additional 4,000 steps per
day, which brings our 3,000 total
instantly up to 7,000. The streets here
are so adorable. Like, look at this.
Every corner looks straight out of a
postcard. There are cats also everywhere
that Katie insists on feeding and
amazing fresh looking food literally on
every block.
>> What kind of meat is that?
>> Fish. Pork.
>> Pork.
>> Free sample.
>> You don't find me funny here. Since the
diet in Greece is so different from
North America, I wanted to see how that
difference shows up in their grocery
stores. By far the biggest section in
this grocery store is for dried fruit,
mixed nuts, and fresh produce. All the
processed aisles, the racks are like
really short. Usually in other grocery
stores, they're like super high. They
have the eggs just on the shelf, not in
the fridge, which is how they should be
cuz when they're fresh eggs, you don't
need to refrigerate them. I swear the
Greeks have the coolest looking language
of all time. What the heck does that
even say? Bromea. Bruma. Here's like the
unhealthy stuff. You really only have a
few different kinds of Oreos. There's
not like endless Oreo options like there
are in America. Typically, cereal aisles
in grocery stores are like the same size
as like the terminal I landed in to get
here. But this this is it. In these
kinds of grocery stores, you're not
overwhelmed by choice. you're seemingly
overwhelmed by freshness over there with
the produce, the mixed nuts, the dried
fruits, and then with this stuff, it's
very limited. This is eyesight. So, when
I'm walking, this is the stuff I see,
the less sugar, and then I have to bend
down
to see the other stuff cuz they don't
want you to get it. I'm trying to eat as
authentically as possible today. So,
because of that, I'm going to try my
best to avoid tourist traps altogether.
I always say if a rack of fridge magnets
are in view, a tourist trap is upon you.
And we've been seeing a lot of those
today. But we just came across this
restaurant right here. There's literally
a line out the door. There's fresh fish
hanging from the walls. It looks like
the real deal. It's a familyrun tavern.
Reviews are insane. So, we're going to
be going here for lunch. Typically, we
wouldn't really order appetizers, but in
the Mediterranean, lunchtime is the main
meal of the day. And if you think about
it, it's actually healthier that way. If
you have a massive dinner and then go to
bed, you're not going to sleep as well.
So having the big meal in the middle of
the day is actually the best thing to
do. So because of that, we have a spread
of appetizers coming. We got some bread,
some tadziki, some faba spread with some
beans, the traditional Greek salad with
all that feta cheese, and then some
fried zucchini. Here we go.
Easily one of the freshest tomatoes I've
ever had. zucchini chips. Absolutely
insane. And if we run out of them, I got
something else to dip in here. When
there's like a big table of apps, I like
black out and I'll regain consciousness
a little later. I love it. What I am
noticing is the simplicity of
everything. They're letting the actual
ingredients speak for themselves.
There's no crazy mayo sauces. There's
nothing that we don't really know what's
in it. It's just super clean, fresh
food, and you feel good after you have
it. even with the fried zucchini. Lunch
so far was such a vibe. The wine was
good, the appetizers were even better,
and the staff was amazing. I just love
this guy.
For the main, we got some seabbream
here. Then we got some shrimp saganaki
with a respectable amount of feta. And
then on the side, we got a salad with
some fries. And everything looks again
very simple. Look at this. There's no
sauce on the side. It's just the fish
with a piece of lemon. So, I guess they
are somewhat proud of the freshness of
this fish. I've actually never had a
fish like this. It's kind of
intimidating because we can see the
whole body here, but So, here we go. So,
I guess we just kind of pull the skin
back just like a four skin.
>> Oh my god, a lot of bones.
>> That's so good. Wow.
You would think that it would taste kind
of like like every other fish cuz
there's not a lot going on. But again,
the freshness is insane. It tastes like
it just swam right on my plate. I don't
even know if you're supposed to eat the
bones or not.
>> Obviously,
>> no. Maybe I will.
>> Just swallow and Google later. Oh,
>> what if it cuts to my esophagus?
>> It would have. I know.
>> Very shortly after we started eating,
one of the guys noticed we were
struggling hard with the fish, so he
came and helped debone it for us. He was
so locked in on the fish. It was crazy.
We didn't have another bone.
>> Thank you. I'm going to keep that for
like a necklace or something.
>> Yeah. You supposed to eat the head or
no?
>> Professional eaters like my mom, for
example.
Yeah.
>> Make you smarter.
>> That's the best part, you know. It makes
you smarter. Joey,
>> thanks so much.
>> Thank you.
>> Oppa. You want the head? Oh my god. I
can see the teeth. Shrimp sagaki. So,
just grilled shrimp in tomato sauce with
feta.
Oh,
I love to eat. So, look at this. The
salad that it came with, it doesn't even
come with any dressing on it, but it
does not even need the dressing cuz
these again are like the best tomatoes
I've ever had in my entire life.
Literally candy.
Not quite candy, but you know what I
mean. Everything was incredible. Each
bite was like you're getting a forehead
kiss from Zeus himself. It is time for a
little snackos in Knackos. So, people in
the Mediterranean don't typically snack,
but they've already taken all my protein
away. I'm snacking. My idea of a
Mediterranean snack is like an iPad
sized piece of feta cheese, but I don't
think people here see food as their
source of daily life's purpose like I
do. But, I have been seeing these
amazing looking bakeries all around town
and I am dying to try something. As I
was going into the bakery, I spotted
this poster, which made my decision
incredibly easy. I also had to get
another coffee.
>> What would be like the most traditional
Greek iced coffee drink?
>> Uh, fist and fellow cappuccino.
>> I will do a Fredo espresso.
>> Thank you.
>> Thank you so much. You, too.
>> We got a Fredo espresso and some
lucades, the traditional Greek donuts.
So, let's try this out here.
Oh, that's good. It's kind of like a
Starbucks drink, but they don't assume
that you have the pallet of a toddler.
Okay, so time for the lukamades now.
Warm Greek balls dripping in honey. Fate
finally serves me.
Here we go. Oh, it smells so good.
Oh my god. A little bit crispy, chewy,
doughy, and then the honey just like
releases in your mouth. It really is the
perfect snack food. Small, round,
dangerously addictive. Just how I like
my balls. And it's funny because you
almost feel a little bit healthier
because they're not drowning in white
sugar. They're drowning in honey, you
know? So, a little bit a little bit
better of a choice. This coffee and
Luca's combo is just straight fire. Each
bite of these honeycovered balls adds
another reason why I don't ever want to
leave Greece. Like, seriously, I I I
don't want to go. I swear if I lived in
Greece,
I would single-handedly, me personally,
I would skew the longevity and obesity
data here. People would be writing
papers on how one man beat the
Mediterranean paradox. Mark my words. I
know it's only been one day, but in
terms of how I feel right now, I feel
great. I feel full. My energy levels are
constant, and my digestion, most
importantly, is beautiful. Usually I
have a bit of stomach troubles, but I
think it's because the diet here is very
well balanced. Normally I'm focused on
protein all the time, slamming protein
shakes, slamming protein bars, having
processed stuff, but there is none of
that here. None. So, who would have
thought? A healthy, well-balanced diet
of whole foods, it just saves your
digestion.
Before we went for dinner, we did some
exploring. Look how beautiful this
looks. She looks pretty cute, too. I had
to give her a kiss. We then checked out
this ancient Greek temple that was
dedicated to the god Apollo. And it was
constructed in the 6th century BC that
is so old. It was also so windy up here.
It was crazy.
We are currently having dinner in a
place that's in a castle. It's giving me
like Olive Garden on trend vibes. And
looking at the menu, I kind of want to
find a study that says dinner was the
main meal of the day because there is so
many things that I want right now.
>> Let's get to the meal. Phase one,
appetizers. We got the watermelon salad,
which looks gorgeous, and these fried
zucchini fritter things. First thing I
tried was the watermelon salad. And I
didn't know watermelon could actually be
this good.
>> That might be the best watermelon I've
ever had. It's like infused with mint.
>> Next, the zucchini fritters. Look at the
face I'm giving Katie. That can only
mean one thing. Appies. 10 out of 10.
>> The zucchini balls might be the best
thing I've ever eaten in my entire life.
I think I'm saying that about everything
here today. My favorite food is just
whatever I'm currently eating,
apparently. Phase two, main course. Now,
check out this cool display. It looks so
tasty. I asked the guy how they season
the chicken here, and he laughed and
told me that he would have to kill me if
he told me. I laughed back as well and
and just said, "Okay, to not and don't
worry about it."
>> Salad, chicken, and fries for the second
time today. The chicken slovaki is like
a mixture of dark meat and white meat.
[Music]
Oh my god.
I don't know if they have death row in
Greece, but if they do, this would be a
solid last meal. I'd go out chewing with
a smile.
>> I probably can't be taken seriously
anymore at this point of the video, but
this chicken was the best chicken I have
ever had. I'm being serious. I think in
Greece, every single thing here is the
best of its kind, and nothing can top
it.
>> It's also pretty crazy. I've had a few
fried things today, and it's not been
bothering my stomach at all. Normally
fried food in general hurts my little
tummy. I feel completely fine. So, they
must fry things here differently. I'm
not entirely sure, but it is interesting
how I feel completely fine. After I said
this, I did what everyone does when they
don't know something. I Googled it.
First of all, it turns out Nakos is
actually famous for their potatoes,
which is a cool fun fact. In terms of
the preparation of these fries in
Greece, it looks like they fry things in
olive oil at a lower temperature so the
oil doesn't burn. This method is seen as
traditional and a healthier way to fry,
which could be why my stomach still
feels great.
>> My mouth has been through a lot in 30
years.
Today has been therapy.
>> Phase three, dessert on the house.
>> They brought us a free dessert, which
looks like a a sample from the kitchen,
if you know what I'm saying. So, this
and then we got a digestive shot, which
I have no idea what it is. All right.
Ooh, it's got like a key lime pie. I
thought it'd be a little saltier, but
it's really good. It's a nice little
limey custard. Super light. And then our
digestive shot.
That's Purll.
That's straight Purel. Oh, it's going
through my nose and my eyes. And phase
four, the actual dessert.
>> Finishing the night off with a
traditional dessert of just a bowl of
fruit. Fruit for dessert is like doing a
cross word together at the end of a
romantic date. Like there is this
there's so many better options than
this. But fruit is good. Nothing
satisfies a sweet tooth quite like a
dragon fruit. Whatever that was was past
its prime.
The was that?
>> It's not the funnest choice, but it is
the right choice. One thing is for sure,
the next place in the world that we're
going to, the dessert, is going to look
a lot different than this. I can totally
see why this is considered the
healthiest diet in the world because I
pretty much had no processed food today
at all. I had good quality fats. I had
lean protein. I had vegetables. I had
some fruits. And everything is locally
sourced, if that even matters. But the
main thing that I think is overlooked
and attributes probably more to the
longevity and the health than the diet
itself is the way of life here.
Everything is much slower paced. There's
less stress and everything is just a lot
calmer.
So now it's time to get on a plane and
go to the other side of the world and do
the complete opposite. In America, the
average American lifestyle is a complete
mess. 70% of the diet is processed food.
10% of disposable income is spent on
fast food, which is crazy. But it all
makes sense because the average American
is 17 lb overweight.
We don't have much time to waste. We got
to start eating. Our goal today is to
consume 3,864
calories, which is nearly double the
Mediterranean diet.
>> 73% of Americans drink coffee every
single day. What are the other 27%
doing? The most popular drink is a
flavored shot latte. So, that's what
we're going to get today. I'm usually a
black coffee kind of guy, so I'm going
to have to make a couple calls and
satisfy that craving elsewhere. That
one's mine.
>> Yeah.
>> Holy smokes. Okay, thank you.
>> Do you guys see this thing? I'm going to
need a freaking spotter to hold it.
Jeez, this is like how the average
middle schooler takes their coffee, man.
We got ourselves a signature
iced caramel craze latte.
Oh my god, that's sweet. That is like
melted ice cream. It's like I slit Willy
Wonka's throat and he like bled out into
my cup. A lot of flavors going on in
here. It gets old really, really fast.
It's like the first three sips are
incredible and then you're just like by
the end of this thing, I'm going to be
like drinking my tears. There's so much
sugar in this thing. And this is the
popular latte.
Oh no.
Like this is a beverage that a lot of
people will like look on the menu and
like daydream about getting but never
actually get it. The Americans get it
usually for me drinks anything below 100
calories. There's exceptions. You know
who you are. But this has to be at least
450 calories just to start the day. Not
even breakfast.
We got to go get some breakfast.
>> It turns out my morning coffee is 530
calories, 17 g of fat, and 74 g of
sugar, but 15 g of protein. So, that's
the thing I'm going to hold on to the
most. This is definitely setting the
tone of what's to come for the rest of
the day. We are currently at an American
diner right now and it does not get much
more classic than this place. I'm
expecting the server to call me hun and
tell me that they have the best pie in
town. Yes, sir. Uh, can I do the diner
royale, please?
>> A classic American breakfast comes with
eggs, toast, bacon or sausage, and hash
brown. I'm no other man, but I am
forecasting cloudy with a high chance of
heartburn. Here, I got to start with the
sausage. Whenever sausage is around, I
can barely concentrate. I need to get it
in my mouth. Here we go. We got two
sausages. My minimum for a good time.
Happiness in a tube. I just had French
toast. Toast and potato all in one bite.
Everyone needs to experience that at
least once in their life. These hash
browns have the seasoning on it that is
so good. I could freaking snort that
dust.
>> Yes, please. Thank you. Now, you may
very well be thinking because this
breakfast is so massive, all the meals
afterwards get progressively lighter.
No. Today, we are teaching our stomach
progressive overload. It's just it's
just non-stop heavy food. Today, I
already want to just write out of order
on a sticky note and just slap it on my
forehead. It's only 11:30 a.m. and I am
absolutely gassed. Normally, I would say
I'm just going to walk it off, but I
can't even do that because the average
American only walks just over 5,000
steps a day, which is not a lot at all.
So, we're going to do a little bit of
exploring, but not much on foot, at
least.
>> So, I quickly did some touristy things,
checking out some of the most popular
landmarks in the area, and before I knew
it, it was lunchtime.
>> McDonald's, America's favorite hitman. I
can't possibly make a video about
America without going to McDonald's.
That would be like me learning Italian
with my hands tied behind my back. If
I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it
right. And don't lie, when I said
American diet, you thought about the
last time you had McDonald's fries,
didn't you?
>> You did. Can I get a Big Mac meal,
please?
>> Anything else?
>> And then can I get a side of the chicken
nuggies? The Big Mac meal and fries is
the most popular order at McDonald's. I
got a side of nugies because it's the
land of the free here and home of the
binge. I'm fairly positive that it's
well documented that McDonald's is just
very bad for you. Yet the Americans just
keep coming back. It's kind of romantic
if you think about it. Man, do I ever
love eating in the car, even if my neck
does get a little messed up back there.
So, we got ourselves a Big Mac combo and
of course a Diet Coke for the illusion
of moderation. Whenever I'm eating fast
food alone in my car, I feel like I'm
filming a documentary about sadness. All
right, we got the Big Mac. It has been a
while since I've had one of these
things.
[Music]
M. Holy moly. This thing barely stays
together. It's crazy to think my first
micronutrient of the day is coming from
a Big Mac. The pickle and the lettuce.
Oh my god, they must put nicotine on the
fries. Absolutely busting. I might look
happy right now with the food in front
of me, but if I was in a video game, my
health energy bar would be going down so
fast right now with how I'm feeling. I'm
not even done the meal yet, and I'm
already feeling gross with the fried
food. Whereas in Greece, there was
actually a good amount of fried food and
I felt completely fine. Those are local
potatoes. Like the only chance of these
being local is if the guy dropping in
the fryer is from here. You know what I
mean? Like who actually knows what's in
what's in this? Like this is this could
not even be potatoes. May not even be
potatoes. My gosh, I need a nap. But I
also can't stop eating. I feel like
that's the American way. This meal is
actually extremely high cal and I feel
completely fine. I feel like I haven't
even eaten. I feel like a big bottomless
pit. But that's what happens when you
don't have good quality food. It just
kind of goes right through you and you
feel you feel like but then you
also feel hungry. It's just it's a weird
feeling.
>> I bet you guys are very surprised to see
me in the gym, aren't you? I'm
definitely surprised. The average
American works out 17 minutes each day,
which is either very efficient hit or a
very strenuous bathroom visit. Like,
what are you supposed to get done in
that amount of time? Like, I'm pretty
sure the Planet Fitness circuit is
longer than that. But I have chest,
back, and biceps. And uh we are going to
try our best here.
>> Out of all the times to do a 17-minute
workout, I think today was the worst day
possible because this gym had so many
incredible looking machines. It was
really hard not to use them. For the
workout today, I just picked one
exercise for each thing and did a set or
two to complete failure. This chest
press machine looked sick. I've never
seen it before and it felt so nice. Then
I moved on to this machine for my back
because it's a mixture of a pull down
and a row and I'm trying to be as
efficient as possible. It is so weird
now warming up between my sets. I paid
$25 for this day pass. I'm paying over a
dollar a minute for this workout.
>> Lastly, I just curled as much as I could
until time was up.
>> Maybe 17 minutes is that sweet spot
where it's long enough that you can say
that you worked out and you're deserving
of a snack.
>> Post-workout, I went to the most famous
and recognizable convenience store brand
in America, 7-Eleven. There was so many
options here. 55% of consumers have
savory snacks like chips. To confirm, I
asked the lady,
>> "Excuse me, what's the most popular
snack?"
>> Popular snack?
>> Yeah.
>> Chips.
>> Chips?
>> Yeah. And breakfast? Pizza.
>> No shot of having 7-Eleven pizza in my
current state. So, I grabbed a bag of
sour cream and onion Lays. I had to
quickly grab Katie a little treat. We
don't have this back in Canada, and I'm
always on husband duty. Now, back to me.
43% of people have things like cookies
and brownies, so I got this little
Debbie brownie that looks horrible, but
also kind of good at the same time. Man,
I feel so down bad right now. Like, you
could throw lipstick on a pig and it'd
probably get lucky with me.
We got sour cream and onion chips. The
most popular option at 7-Eleven
according to the lady. The serving size
may as well just been swuahili because I
don't think anyone here is necessarily
reading that. But eight servings, 160
calories, 17 chips.
You know what a simple fix would be?
Start making sour cream and onion
flavored protein powder and everybody in
America would be ready for the Mr.
Olympia. Next thing, we got this Little
Debbie brownie. 510 calories is insane.
My gosh, there's a very tinted car here
that looks kind of
I'm just going to eat my brownie. Let's
taste Little Debbie.
Kind of tastes like dog food with cocoa
powder. I think it's fair to say that
most Americans should not be eating
anywhere near 3600 calories. But I think
most Americans have no idea how to set
up their calories. That is why they
should download the MacroFactor app. The
app does everything for you. You just
implement your height, your age, your
weight, and it'll split out all the
things and it'll tell you how to adjust
your calories from week to week. So then
they'll know that they hit all their
macros at Dunkin Donuts this morning at
coffee. If you want to start tracking
your calories and macros, download the
Macro Factor app and use code will for a
twoe free trial. We are currently in a
part of town called Foggy Bottom, which
actually sounds so cute, but it also
sounds like a place that people come to
after they have Chipotle. And I might
get Pink Eye or something. 68% of
Americans eat at home five nights a
week. I'm actually so proud of those
people. It's amazing. And a very staple
meal is meatloaf. So, we are going to go
get meatloaf. And for the viewers out
there who might get some meatloaf
related trauma, I'm sorry. I don't I'm
sorry. Let's get meatloaf. They are out
of the meatloaf. So, we have to pivot.
So, I went online and I searched common
household dinners in America. Mac and
cheese came up. Fried chicken came up.
And on the menu, they have fried chicken
and waffles that also come with seven
cheese macaroni. That sounds like five
too many cheeses for me, but I think
that's what we got to do. The average
American consumes 11 alcoholic beverages
a week, which is concerning. And I'm not
sure if I'd rather them space that out
evenly during the week or just like
party hella hard one night. But because
of that, I got myself an old Cuban
mojito.
>> Yeah.
>> Oh, that's going to hit me soon. I
sipped on my old Cuban as I waited,
trying to not make it look like it's the
first time I ever had alcohol. Very
shortly after, my food arrived, and this
was a hefty meal. It actually looked
quite intimidating. I'm not going to
lie. That chicken is definitely not
fried in olive oil.
>> Even though I'm at a restaurant, I feel
like I'm at some someone's grandma's
house. I don't know whose grandma it is,
but I'm at somebody's grandma's house,
cuz this just looks like down home good
home-cooked food. Man, oh my gosh. Where
do I begin? The mac and cheese is like
80% cheese, 10% noodles. This is going
to be decadent as hell. It's pretty much
looks like fondue.
All right, here we go. I don't even want
to know how much butter is in this as
well. I'm just here to have fun. If I
wanted transparency, I would have a
salad. No way. Yeah,
>> look at the butter on my waffles.
>> She did say 23 times.
>> I would have liked to have made that
choice. You know what's insane to think
about? I've had three different kinds of
potatoes today. I've had home fries,
I've had fries, and I've had chips. I'm
collecting all the potato infinity
stones. I'm definitely going to have
like high school acne for like a week
after this. This is truly a masterpiece.
I shall say the amount of cheese in the
macaroni is extremely overwhelming, but
it makes it kind of fun. And the
creaminess goes really well with the
crunchiness and the fluffiness. And then
there the sweetness. Like texturally,
this is incredible the difference in how
I feel right now at this time of day
here compared to Greece.
I can't even describe the difference.
It's insane.
Yeah, I'm already fading here.
>> Did the best I could with this meal. I
was trying to visualize a salad while I
was eating it, which kind of helped, but
we still weren't done. It was time for
dessert. I got a Gatorade on the way
home. I I've had so much sodium. I was
feeling so dehydrated. Anyway, this will
be the final thing that goes into my
body for the rest of the day to complete
the American diet. Jammies are on. I
can't walk. I can barely breathe. But
somehow I'm ready for pie and cookies.
The two most popular desserts in America
are apple pie and chocolate chip
cookies, and they had them both at the
restaurant. So, I mean, I I could have I
could have just picked one, but I
decided to bring them both home with me.
When it comes to dessert, I practice
polygamy. So, this is going to be a
little interesting three-way. Let's
start with the chocolate chip cookie. I
would only get chocolate chip cookies as
a kid based off good behavior or my
uncle would say, performance reviews.
But, I love these. It's just a classic.
Oh, it's still a little bit warm. It's
soft. It's gooey.
Potentially the state of my boxers after
the first bite.
You can literally see with your own eyes
that this is going to taste good. Like
the flavor is visible. Apple pie next.
They didn't give me a fork, so I'm just
I We're going to pick it up here. I'm in
the comfort of my own hotel room. An
apple a day keeps the doctor away.
[Music]
Oh, now that is better. This slaps
a freaking fruit bowl that I had in the
Mediterranean. Apple pie just brings out
the best in me and I put the best of me
into the apple pie. I can totally see
why this is the unhealthiest diet in the
world. My only source of fruit and
vegetables today was like a mint in a
mojito, apple in an apple pie, and then
the vegetables in a Big Mac. And if
that's how you're getting your five a
day in, you have to question every
single one of your life choices. Do you
know what Americans need? They need my
cookbook that's available for pre-order
right now, this instant. Link is in the
description. Every single thing that I
had today is available in my cookbook in
a better, healthier, higher protein
form. It even tastes better. You don't
need all this stuff. So, you don't need
to be 17 lbs overweight. You'll be the
perfect weight. Heck, even more jacked,
leaner than ever before, and enjoying
all the foods that you love every single
day. With the cookbook, it is
incredible. 100 recipes. You can't go
wrong. Please pre-order it. We want to
be a New York Times bestseller, and that
would mean the world to me. So, just
please help me out with that and I'll
I'll I'll send you a virtual kiss. I
think if this video confirms anything,
it's that we need this chicken recipe.
Mine just didn't land the same. But also
that food is medicine. It influences so
much more than whether or not we're
full. It's how we feel, how we perform,
and how we show up in life. But most
importantly, it's about enjoying these
foods with family and the people you
love.

The video compares the world's healthiest diet, the Mediterranean diet, with the world's unhealthiest diet, the typical American diet. The host travels to Greece to experience the Mediterranean lifestyle, enjoying fresh, locally sourced foods like Greek yogurt, seafood, and simple, well-prepared dishes, noting improved digestion and energy. He highlights the slower pace of life, emphasis on fresh produce, and traditional cooking methods as key health factors. Conversely, the host then tries the American diet, consuming processed foods, sugary drinks, and large, calorie-dense meals from fast-food chains and diners. He experiences a significant drop in energy, digestive discomfort, and an overwhelming feeling of being full yet still hungry, emphasizing the stark difference in physical well-being and overall quality of food between the two diets.
