@@aqua6613 Ye but it is funny because, it should be good that there aren’t any dead animals on the road. However Max says that it isn’t a good sign, it is a good sign as less animals have been killed on the road or less animals corpses have been left to rot on the road.
Little PSA from a vet: Make sure to have someone who has experience (hunters, butchers, vets etc) look at the carcass to check for parasites or diseases in the animal! Also make aure to wash any foraged plants, berries etc very, very throughly!
No judgement here, but John totally looks like a roadkill expert. If I had to pick a roadkill expert out of a crowded room, he would be pick numero uno.
It's interesting to think that that pheasant was probably fresher than most any meat I get at a grocery store. Yet I'm still a little grossed out? Conflicted is definitely a good word lol
I wouldn't call it interesting, to be honest. it's more of a logical sense, that it would be fresher. Wild game is and always will be, tastier than what you hunt in the market.
Depends on what you mean by fresh. While meat from farm animals may have been dead longer, the time between a farm animal being butchered and preserved will typically happen in a much shorter time on a farm than on the road. When an animal is killed on the road, even for pretty "fresh" ones there can be hours or so where the dead animal is sitting on the hot road beginning the process of decomposition with parasites and flies and such. An animal butchered on a farm will be killed in a more sanitary environment, skinned, and refrigerated or frozen as fast as possible. It also highly depends on how it's killed, if the road kill animal is crushed then the bone will splinter into the meat and the dirt and grime from the tire will dig into the meat, or worse the crash ruptures the intestines making animal fecal matter leak into the meat. They got really lucky in this video by finding a bird mostly intact. Also keep in mind if you find road kill without knowing how it died, it might have died from natural causes such as disease instead, which would potentially be unsafe to consume. This makes road kill slightly more dangerous and gross to consume. It's pretty safe if you watch the animal get road killed and are there to skin and preserve it immediately. Especially if you cook it well. But I wouldn't recommend picking up animals dead from unknown causes for an unknown amount of time and eating it.
I mean the thing is, if you manage to get a fresh animal like 30mins to an hour after it’s been killed, that’s wild game and it’s super fresh, might taste a little weird because of the meat being wild but it’s fresh meat lol
I'm not grossed out but I'm definitely worried. Don't you have to test wild animal meat before eating??? At least you have to in my country. I was surprised Max did not mention this at all.
This video really rings with me. My family is throttling the poverty line and a couple years we simply didn't have enough money for food. So everyday, on their way to work at 3 am, my family would pick up any kind of bigger roadkill there was that they knew was fresh. Mostly deer but the occasional opposum
Where do you live that people are just casually pasting deer across the tarmac and driving away like nothing happened? What do people drive there, APCs?

Honestly that roadkill looked like just a normal bird. I couldn't see any part where it's been crushed or run over really. So even if it was, it was probably about the same. Still, I like the idea of feeding weird shit to food reviewers and see if they might change their mind afterward.
Lots of birds like Pheasant actually die in a pretty humane way on roads… They stick their heads out like chickens and it’s typically just a quick whack to the head by a passing car which is why it fell off the side of the road. I actually read a book about urban foraging years ago (never tried it tho) and they said that longer necked birds are typically ready to eat, like the guy said, Pheasant, partridge, stuff like that… relatively dumb birbs that walk with their head bobbing forward. It’s pretty humane and fast now they die and the body is left untouched..
I once had the unpleasant experience of having 2 pheasants flush from the hedgerow whilst riding my motorcycle. Amazingly, I stayed on and one of the feathered Kamikazies had suffered a front fork/beak interface. I was aware that I wasn't allowed to pick it up as I'd been the first vehicle to hit it. So I went on a bit of a ride and wouldn't you know it, I found myself back at the same spot. I reasoned with myself that I had simply come across the deceased bird and shoved it in my rucksack. Poached with cabbage and pear cider and fed to the family. Didn't break my expensive carbon mudguard either. Result!! 🙂😂
Road kill is stunning, but like any foraging and gathering skills, you seriously need to know what your doing. Getting food poisoning or sickness is horrible experience.
@@kishinumaayumi Stale? My guy that flesh would be spoilt if it spent more than 3 hours out in the sun, the thing that baffles me so much is that the cook in question is not looking at the issues from a health check perspective but an ethical one, no one cares whether or not it's ethical, legit the most useless argument. But if you can get poisoned by the means of how the meat is acquired that is a big issue and should definitely be banned.
@@BreadCatMarcus Nah, the YTer was being honest. The presentation was pretty gash and the kind of thing college kids do - when compard to michelin chef was just having a laugh
Hold on Max, Just as a tip of advice: Never Listen to Peta for advice on what's humane or not. They're an extremists on animal safety but it gets to a point where every single fucking thing they do is hypocritical.
Thank u!!! I was looking for someone who said it! I have never trusted PETA with my life bc of how awful they are to the animals they want to protect. Almost if not all of their animal shelters are high kill shelters and the animals they try to “save” end up getting killed out of their ignorance. Case in point that post back a few years ago where a group of peta workers went into a restaurant, stole all the lobsters out of the tank and proceeded to throw them into a freshwater creek next to the restaurant
Plus they're saying it's more Humane it's their opinion that's not an actual scientific fact in Pita isn't even a reliable source so you basically made people eat roadkill sacrificing their safety and health
@@shonuff-dl1wz nothing that PETA has said has any scientific background behind it, and if they do it’s their own “scientists” that are “proving” their claim
I thought this was immoral due to potential poisoning until the dude said "it's still warm" and I immediately calmed down No problem with it if it's warm enough you can know for sure it hasn't started to rot
@@ilyesjebalia9757 that’s like saying Muslims have no reason not to be fine with non-Halal meat… everyone deserves to know what they’re putting into their body.
@@ilyesjebalia9757 Yes they do. Wild animals have diseases, and being hit by a car can cause tiny bone fragments to get embeded in the meat, as well as bile leakage. And unless you see the animal get hit, you don't even know how long it's been out there laying on the road.
@@madelinebitts2766 checking its body heat can solve the "how long has it been dead" problem. probably a bit inaccurate though if u live in a cold or hot place
@@GrahamCrannell I know you'd know this, but I just want to mention cooking doesn't always make rancid meat safe if it had been out for a while, the process of decomposition can create some pretty toxic chemicals that can't just be cooked out. But that's not the case here, as the pheasant was fresh, just good to keep in mind.
In the US some states allow you to harvest deer roadkill. One night in Colorado on the way to a party my friends - 2 girls and a guy- spotted a doe by the side of the road. They checked and saw she was dead but still warm then threw her in the trunk. Nobody (except me) blinked an eye as they gutted it right on the kitchen table. Quite the indoctrination to rural life for this East Coaster.
@@QtPieMarth Depends on which Meat you're talking about. Chicken houses have very little environmental impact, while being quite morally obscene. Cattle ranching does have an environmental impact by it's methane contribution, but that's pretty much just beef. Even with that being said, the meat industry doesn't hold a match to oil corporations.
@@owenstevens7151 thats not true. Keep in mind the clean water needed to process the meat and to grow all the food for the animals. Huge waste of space and energy. But of course, oil companies are huge aswell

@@skussy69 3 star means that the food is so special that you need to make a special journey for it but in this case the journey is the food. Wonder how many micheline stars the meal get if it was sourced by a micheline tire.
This takes me back to being a kid at my grandparents house and seeing my grandfather arrive home with one or two white tail deer carcasses in the bed of his truck he picked up off the side of the road. Always knew we'd be eating good that night!
Pheasant is completely fine to eat. Very typical in the countryside like deer, bore or hare. I was expecting something like a rat or fox or another animal. You have got to do another one.
Fox is perfectly fine to eat, so long as you cook it through thoroughly. It does great in slow cooked stews! Rats however. I personally do not touch wild rats unless to throw them into a bush away from the road to make sure scavengers don't get hit.
The way max says ‘naughty’ scares me. I can just imagine him getting really close to the mic just saying naughty five times and choosing the creepiest one for the video.
I remember reading something similar to this in a manga called Oishinbo. The MC used wild and uncured salmon for his recipe and served it to s group of high class food connoisseurs. The thing about using wild salmon that is raw is that they have a high chance of containing parasites that cause illnesses if not killed through cooking. The MC (who knoes his stuff) hired some scientists with a microscope to thoroughly examine each individual piece of salmon for parasites before deeming it safe to eat. The dish was safe, but not revealing the potential risks of eating it beforehand was wrong.
@boiledelephant you can never really be TOO sure that there are no parasites in a cut of salmon. They surveyed it as best they could, but there was always a chance that they could miss something.
I could never be a food critic, I take a bite chew for a second and I mean a second and then boom it's gone I wolf my food done like it's the first meal I ever had
At first I thought "Liver with chocolate?! What?" Then I gave it some time and realized the high iron content in the liver can accentuate the bitterness of dark chocolate much like espresso. Kinda want to try it now.
My grandmother hit a deer once and smashed it in the head a few times with the car jack to make sure it was dead and then butchered it and served it for dinner the same day x) I will never forget the surprise when she walked in with a deer in her arms. :)
@@tendax8912 Their grandmother is a badass and finished off an already dying animal by putting it out of its misery and providing a meal from the dead creature to her family instead of leaving it to die on the side of the road.

Not sure how you come up with such unique ideas every week.
Great job Max
Bro if Peta claims roadkill is healtier I wouldn't touch that thing.
With fuel prices as they are I feel like that meal would be expensive for a reason
Yep, he could definitely use putting down €7k for a used Zoe
Honestly that roadkill looked like just a normal bird. I couldn't see any part where it's been crushed or run over really. So even if it was, it was probably about the same. Still, I like the idea of feeding weird shit to food reviewers and see if they might change their mind afterward.
Lots of birds like Pheasant actually die in a pretty humane way on roads…
They stick their heads out like chickens and it’s typically just a quick whack to the head by a passing car which is why it fell off the side of the road.
I actually read a book about urban foraging years ago (never tried it tho) and they said that longer necked birds are typically ready to eat, like the guy said, Pheasant, partridge, stuff like that… relatively dumb birbs that walk with their head bobbing forward.
It’s pretty humane and fast now they die and the body is left untouched..
I once had the unpleasant experience of having 2 pheasants flush from the hedgerow whilst riding my motorcycle.
Amazingly, I stayed on and one of the feathered Kamikazies had suffered a front fork/beak interface.
I was aware that I wasn't allowed to pick it up as I'd been the first vehicle to hit it.
So I went on a bit of a ride and wouldn't you know it, I found myself back at the same spot. I reasoned with myself that I had simply come across the deceased bird and shoved it in my rucksack.
Poached with cabbage and pear cider and fed to the family.
Didn't break my expensive carbon mudguard either.
Result!! 🙂😂
Road kill is stunning, but like any foraging and gathering skills, you seriously need to know what your doing. Getting food poisoning or sickness is horrible experience.
That's why he asked people to cook it for him and help him get raodkills
I find it hilarious how he's talking about how he is going to find the freshest roadkill like its a competition and other people would want it.. Lol
animals would def want it
Animals: yes we would
Other people DO go looking. He's not the only one. There have been fights over who claimed what roadkill first. It ain't just the animals out there!
Plus you wouldn't necessarily want an old, stale piece of roadkill
@@kishinumaayumi Stale? My guy that flesh would be spoilt if it spent more than 3 hours out in the sun, the thing that baffles me so much is that the cook in question is not looking at the issues from a health check perspective but an ethical one, no one cares whether or not it's ethical, legit the most useless argument. But if you can get poisoned by the means of how the meat is acquired that is a big issue and should definitely be banned.
5:29 that was the best voldemort impression i’ll probably ever hear 😂
Imagine they actually did this at restaurants, they tell you it's road kill and you pay significantly less money than everything else on the menu lol
I would imagine with the time investment to find that you could pay much more
You'd probably pay more since it's fresh, ethical and an interesting experience.
@@8ytan I doubt peoppe would pay more for roadkill though
@@zman4002 Some people would. For the reasons he listed above
Yeah, it's called "ground beef" and it's in most fast food places for a steal of a price.
“Do I have to say yes chef at all times?”
“At all times”
“Ok” 🤣🤣🤣
this entire video is mental, where have i freakin been, im here for the long haul now
5:10 "Do I have to say yes chef all the time?"
"At all times."
"Ok."
Max........ buddy....
The Michelin star chef: I love the crisscross effect
The RUclipsr: *you could try harder with your presentation*
The less people know, the more they try to act superior or knowledgeable. 😂
@@BreadCatMarcus Nah, the YTer was being honest. The presentation was pretty gash and the kind of thing college kids do - when compard to michelin chef was just having a laugh
Hold on Max, Just as a tip of advice: Never Listen to Peta for advice on what's humane or not. They're an extremists on animal safety but it gets to a point where every single fucking thing they do is hypocritical.
Thank u!!! I was looking for someone who said it! I have never trusted PETA with my life bc of how awful they are to the animals they want to protect. Almost if not all of their animal shelters are high kill shelters and the animals they try to “save” end up getting killed out of their ignorance. Case in point that post back a few years ago where a group of peta workers went into a restaurant, stole all the lobsters out of the tank and proceeded to throw them into a freshwater creek next to the restaurant
Cope
@@M313-u8d Seethe
Plus they're saying it's more Humane it's their opinion that's not an actual scientific fact in Pita isn't even a reliable source so you basically made people eat roadkill sacrificing their safety and health
@@shonuff-dl1wz nothing that PETA has said has any scientific background behind it, and if they do it’s their own “scientists” that are “proving” their claim
I thought this was immoral due to potential poisoning until the dude said "it's still warm" and I immediately calmed down
No problem with it if it's warm enough you can know for sure it hasn't started to rot
You wouldn’t feed a vegan meat secretly. In my mind, if one of those people wasn’t fine eating roadkill, they would have the right to be mad
@@matthewhubka6350 They have no reason to not be fine with roadkill lol
@@ilyesjebalia9757 that’s like saying Muslims have no reason not to be fine with non-Halal meat… everyone deserves to know what they’re putting into their body.
@@ilyesjebalia9757 Yes they do. Wild animals have diseases, and being hit by a car can cause tiny bone fragments to get embeded in the meat, as well as bile leakage. And unless you see the animal get hit, you don't even know how long it's been out there laying on the road.
@@madelinebitts2766 checking its body heat can solve the "how long has it been dead" problem.
probably a bit inaccurate though if u live in a cold or hot place
To be quite honest.
When it's cooked, it's probably fine.
Idk abt that one mate hahaha
Depending on if it died quick or not I think adrenaline fucks up the taste of meat
@@willb9165 It was still warm when they found it. That pheasant was days fresher than anything you'd buy in a shop
@@GrahamCrannell I know you'd know this, but I just want to mention cooking doesn't always make rancid meat safe if it had been out for a while, the process of decomposition can create some pretty toxic chemicals that can't just be cooked out. But that's not the case here, as the pheasant was fresh, just good to keep in mind.
If it's freshly killed then sure. But otherwise the meat can start spoiling quickly, especially when warm outside.
max is the chaotic neutral i need in my life
John is a fitting name, and he looks the part too!
Can’t get more “roadkill expert” than him…
"yeah, not a lot of fat so it over cooks quickly, like this"
I like him.
In the US some states allow you to harvest deer roadkill. One night in Colorado on the way to a party my friends - 2 girls and a guy- spotted a doe by the side of the road. They checked and saw she was dead but still warm then threw her in the trunk. Nobody (except me) blinked an eye as they gutted it right on the kitchen table. Quite the indoctrination to rural life for this East Coaster.
The irony is how much gas they spent looking for the roadkill 🤣
That wasn't an EV?
Lol. Eco friendly road kill, drove around for well over 2 hours to get one bird.
Ethically friendly, not ecologically (although the meat agriculture industry is horrific for the environment).
@@QtPieMarth Depends on which Meat you're talking about. Chicken houses have very little environmental impact, while being quite morally obscene. Cattle ranching does have an environmental impact by it's methane contribution, but that's pretty much just beef. Even with that being said, the meat industry doesn't hold a match to oil corporations.
@@owenstevens7151 thats not true. Keep in mind the clean water needed to process the meat and to grow all the food for the animals. Huge waste of space and energy. But of course, oil companies are huge aswell
Keep arguing about meat being bad for the environment while I enjoy my 12oz steak :D
@@owenstevens7151 You are severely downplaying the impact of all of the forms of animal agriculture you mentioned. Please don't.
“That looks like hummus” “it’s not 🙂”
This video has convinced me to become vegan except eating roadkill.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to drive offroad "aimlessly" for a few hours.
You're doing it wrong. you have to follow someone with a good aim and "find" what they leave behind.
@@rossmaclean2 does it work if you punt their car into the animal with your car???
@@philipsimpson1160 That would be legal, as long as you accidentally punt their car into the animal.
Misread your username as "BottomFagger" lmfao
@@Pattoe how would they know ;)
The roadkill expert seemed like such a chill guy
Bro how come I see this video after I walk by a squirrel in the road with it’s head gone? 😂
i dont know if it's just my limited, american view of british TV presenters, but i do love how your narration style reminds me so much of jeremy clarkson
No, max is our best
It's the casual racism. (Joke)
yh i get you
Next up, Max Fosh goes to Diddly Squat Farm to sheer some sheep & make sweaters out of the wool
11:55 “liver and chocolate” *smirks after taking bite* as if it doesn’t sound and look like something a psycho cannibal would do and say 🤣🤣🤣
YOU
@@gamefre4k347 It honestly doesnt sound all too bad... but idk ive never had liver before.. all i know is liver is a very mineraly and rich flavor
Liver in the chocolate sauce is great, BLood and Choclate mixes very well, I knew this since I was a kid I would get nosebleeds quite often so The tatse of blood was in my mouth once and I ate choclate realised it mixes way better then it should
this made me immediately think of a cafe for vampires which serves chocolate and blood cakes and sauce and stuff
Uhmmm okayyyy hahahaha
That's a very disturbing way to find out about a cooking technique.
This is a serial killer origin story
This is how Hannibal started off
fish and chips from the most polluted river and now a 3 star meal from road kill.
3 star* I see you don't understand the Michelin scale
@@skussy69 you saw nothing and everything at the same time. :)
@@skussy69 3 star means that the food is so special that you need to make a special journey for it but in this case the journey is the food. Wonder how many micheline stars the meal get if it was sourced by a micheline tire.
@@skussy69 why the condescending tone?
the actual chef must be so happy to hear good reviews
This takes me back to being a kid at my grandparents house and seeing my grandfather arrive home with one or two white tail deer carcasses in the bed of his truck he picked up off the side of the road. Always knew we'd be eating good that night!
The meet would be expired if your grandpa was arriving home at night. Does he work a nightshift, or do you live in a cold place?
@@Caliginosi7y I should have clarified he only did it in the winter.
@@ReinSoulswhew
Pheasant is completely fine to eat. Very typical in the countryside like deer, bore or hare. I was expecting something like a rat or fox or another animal. You have got to do another one.
Or a cat
Fox is perfectly fine to eat, so long as you cook it through thoroughly. It does great in slow cooked stews!
Rats however. I personally do not touch wild rats unless to throw them into a bush away from the road to make sure scavengers don't get hit.
I don’t think anyone was saying it wasn’t fine or that it was unusual, the weird bit is just supposed to be how it died
Lol the guy with the white hat was extremely excited and grateful...must be a chefs dream customer
The way max says ‘naughty’ scares me. I can just imagine him getting really close to the mic just saying naughty five times and choosing the creepiest one for the video.
This video earned you a subscribe and bell. Brillian dark humor and cooking combined
I remember reading something similar to this in a manga called Oishinbo. The MC used wild and uncured salmon for his recipe and served it to s group of high class food connoisseurs. The thing about using wild salmon that is raw is that they have a high chance of containing parasites that cause illnesses if not killed through cooking. The MC (who knoes his stuff) hired some scientists with a microscope to thoroughly examine each individual piece of salmon for parasites before deeming it safe to eat. The dish was safe, but not revealing the potential risks of eating it beforehand was wrong.
Ok....go touch some grass weeb
"It was safe, but failing to reveal the risks was unethical."
So...was it safe, or was it risky? Which is it? 🧐
You actually read that manga? It's like 30 years old.
@boiledelephant you can never really be TOO sure that there are no parasites in a cut of salmon. They surveyed it as best they could, but there was always a chance that they could miss something.
@@luichinplaystation610 Seriously?
I prepared myself a nice dinner to eat while watching Mr Fosh. It might have been a mistake.

Imagine serving someone a pheasant starter and then for the main pheasant guess what's for dessert?
I could never be a food critic, I take a bite chew for a second and I mean a second and then boom it's gone I wolf my food done like it's the first meal I ever had
"I'm sure it's fine. Kinda cool"
*"PETA says so"*
"I want nothing to do with this"
5:21 "Could do a lot more" yea, we know what you're implying there you naughty boy.
When’s the next hot video
> I got sentenced to the worst federal prison for 16 years for attempting to ship an IED to someone’s mailbox.
Max always comes up with the most random ideas and I love it 😭
@Fisnihot💯👇 wow the bots are here already 🥳
At first I thought "Liver with chocolate?! What?" Then I gave it some time and realized the high iron content in the liver can accentuate the bitterness of dark chocolate much like espresso. Kinda want to try it now.
Im so happy for your friend tho, that meal could actually be approved in a Michelin star restaurant! Thats a huge step tbh
Max: Do I have to say 'yes chef' at all times?
Chef: At ALL times.
Max: OK.
🤦♂️
My grandmother hit a deer once and smashed it in the head a few times with the car jack to make sure it was dead and then butchered it and served it for dinner the same day x)
I will never forget the surprise when she walked in with a deer in her arms. :)
Wait what
Grandma turned the tables and ran over the reindeer instead
@@tendax8912 Their grandmother is a badass and finished off an already dying animal by putting it out of its misery and providing a meal from the dead creature to her family instead of leaving it to die on the side of the road.
what a badass
critic: gets served roadkill
critic 2 seconds later: 'its nice'
"You've smashed it"
Well, no... that was the car.
