Welcome to the I'm Tasty Club, how I'm Tasty are ya? - Part 2 Vid kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNuYpZhevc_Vdas.html

Fun fact if your bread is moldy even if you take away all the visible mold the whole loaf is already tainted with it, Some mold can kill you and some mold makes you high and makes you hallucinate. So please never take the risk of eating any moldy bread.

literally 2 days without food and they're already resorting to cannibalism... these visual novel characters are something else

"This game is not for children or those who are easily disturbed." Oh man, last time I heard *that* one, a self-aware waifu tried to kidnap me.

"Alright everyone, we've got no food, we're gonna have to eat this table." Is my favorite line.

I like how they included actual recipes in this totally-not-a-horror game.

Am I the only one who notice Anatonly's lil friend suddenly went missing? he totally ate him, or tossed it out the window back into nature.

Fun Fact: If you die of hunger the cells in your body start stealing other cells food until you basically eat yourself from the inside out.

I love how Gregor on his deathbed is just his regular Avatar but horizontal

Have you noticed how the main characters treat each other? Although according to the story they are friends, they do not support each other, discounting the difficulties on others. Anatoly and Gregor seem good, but only while talking - they also didn't help each other or the others once. Of all the company, it seems, only Maria had something truly good in her. Update: I have theory that they all act like this because this is protagonist's attempt to justify himself. Like "oh look they were so bad I did a good thing killing them"

As a slav, I found it interesting how this game makes a lot of references to slavic folk lore and fairy tales: in many of them the villain tries to eat a child or someone else by baking them in the oven. So basically they act nice and then make you sit on a shovel (which they use to actually put you into the oven)

they turned to cannibalism so fast . like, even the donner party had more restraint

Might be wrong but I feel like the "chompettes" are actually real food the protagonist is purposely hiding in that drawer with the intention to starve everyone.

Man, imagine getting killed for meat, and your killer being so shit at food storage/preparation that they only get a few cutlets and bits offa your corpse before it goes bad. I would become a vengeful ghost. I hate wasting food! You should be able to eat me for at least a week, and eat like a king at that!

1:05:46 "Они вас никогда не простят" -- "They will never forgive you" and 1:10:17 "Лучше спи с двумя глазами открытыми" -- "Better sleep with two eyes open" is said in Russia. For me, as a Russian-speaking person watching this video, this quiet whisper is very annoying to goosebumps.

So like, did anyone else pick up on the implied romantic undertones between Gregor and Anatoly? Like, specifically when Gregor says that he didn’t tell Anatoly something before his left, him talking about how they first met, Gregor being the kindest to Anatoly, how when they came back from reading the map and Gregor was blushing. It just seemed like there was something there. Also, I’m pretty sure he was about to say Anatoly’s name before he died.

"bread and jam isnt much, but its more than what we had when we left Ukraine" now with the war, that sentence terrified me

The fact that Karin was so evil, then Manly drove immediately on the crazy train makes it so much better.

As much as I think this game is about the protagonist suffering trauma by having a severe PTSD moment of seeing his friends die and them eating them (thus seeing themselves as a Baba Yaga/monster/cannibal), the story teller in my brain goes back to Potato who said at the beginning “Cabbage forced me into this cabinet, this is basically kidnapping”. Seeing how the group constantly went out without you, you being forced to stay at the cabin, Karin’s constantly ribbing at you (ignoring her relationship events), I hesitantly propose that for some reason Karin/the group kidnapped you, hiding out in the woods and then accidentally getting caught in the floods. This could explain why all the “kind/soft” dialogue in the first few days seemed so cold and stilted: it’s heard from a victim’s perspective. Your captors’ words would aways sound creepy or scary no matter how cheerful they try to make it sound.

"They'll always be inside of us Gregor..." Oh man, that joke was in poor taste.

I like how literally nobody comments on the squirrel Anatoly has on his shoulder at ALL TIMES ... until Day 7.

Even tho the artstyle said otherwise... They're def talking in a deep russian accents

So I looked it up. It's dangerous in a rainstorm but it turns out it's also one of the good times to go fishing. They could have set 2 in a team with rain ponchos to get fish. I get that 1 of the members doesnt like meat but it is survival. It's you or the animals, and they wont hesitate to choose.

so here's some info you may or may not find usefull: 1. cooking meat makes it last longer than raw meat, though not by much. it effectively sterlizes the meat from both bacteria and fungus. you can also drink the broth (it's meager compared to bone broth tho) to stave off hunger as the broth will be a little fatty too (depends on the meat and in this case the person's body fat ratio), it would be ideal to add salt to this too as only eating meat isn't very nutritious. 2. there's multiple ways of refridgerating without electricity such as using wet sand or putting cleaned meat (preferably you'd salt it too to make it last longer as the salt is a preservative) in a sealed container and submerge it in water, preferably moving water. this would be the most accessible of the two I've mentioned for these characters as they have a lot of water they can use. 3. if you ever happen to eat your friends, just an if, you should start by prepping the meat for storage and eating the blood and organs first. blood is pretty nutritious (insects like butterflies will chose it over any nectar or honey) and if you have flour you can make blood pudding, I rather like it though ofc usually it's made with pigs blood. you can also make blood soup but I've never tasted it before. the bones are best to make broth with ofc and the cartilage can also be cooked and eaten. if you're eating a person please don't eat the brain as you can get very sick from that (you can get kuru among other things) and though the brain may not be contaminated I'd advice avoiding eating any creatures brain. I've heard that tongue is quite tasty tho. you can also eat intestines although cleaning them can be quite bothersome. you can also make blood sausages with interstines as casings. you can make soups with them or skewer and grill. you can eat skin too and considering the characters situation and the fact that the skin is a very large organ they'd have enough to eat at least two smaller meals a day, if not more depending on how much water they use. 4. if you're low on foos adding water to your meals is great bc it takes up space in your stomach and makes you feel more full which in turn makes you less stressed. overall I've never eaten a human (shocking I know) but we're all still human and the same things we do to animal products and what we eat from them can still be hypothetically applied to us. I feel like I shouldn't know this much about how to eat a person but I do... the taste also seems to differ depending on who you ask and obviously also the seasoning. some say people taste like calf and others like lamb. the taste would probably depend on the persons life style as well. if we consider things like the fact that fat will let them survive longer then the first person they should have eaten should, in my opinion, have been karin. simply because she's one of the taller and therefore bigger characters and has big bobas, aka fat bc that's what bobas are. she'd have more blood than mariah, her bones would be bigger and since she's a healthy weight and not too skinny there'd be plenty of meat to go around. you might think greg would be a better pick but because he's so muscular there will be less fat on him which would be detrimental if we want to maximize their survival. psychologically however they're boned either way.

My theory is that Gregory and Anatoly has an affair/feeling between them,that’s what Gregory didn’t get to tell Anatoly.He talks about not being able to share a secret with Anatoly,since he’s dead.The scene that one of them comes out of the room blushing is quite a hint

i should be terrified, but after i noticed karin's braid being tucked under her arm i couldn't stop thinking about it

"Id rather be a thief than a... monster" *relationship increases* "Our relationship GREW because of that?!"

19:24 _Everyone leaves the dishes behind for you to do._ *EXCUSE ME?!?!* If you cooked all that food, the _least_ they could do is clean up for you, smh...

Okay so: Cabbage: Karin Onion: Anatoly Raspberry: Mariah Bread: Gregor Potato: Player? They seem to be the outsider, much like the player in some ways is

I wonder if the protagonist has some sort of supernatural power, that whole conversation with Raspberry made it seem that he was controlling the rain.

It's interesting seeing how, fundamentally, the protagonist is pretty self-centered and not really very sympathetic. They don't seem to care all that much about their companions, seeking more to impress them and come off well than actually connect with them. Really, in a lot of ways, the protagonist is pretty responsible--though not fully--for what ends up happening to the group

1:17:14 game: Anatoly has left the cabin Manly: Anatoly has entered the oven

“We’re having it raw tonight Gregor” ayo?

holy shit, this is the FIRST time ive ever felt truly scared/disturbed when seeing characters w 'distorted faces'. those are literally so creepy and caught me off guard w how much they actually made me uncomfortable, especially anatoly's.

Just remembered our Russian very old Slavian fairytale, called "The pit" It's about a bear, fox, wolf, chicken, hare and cock, who all fell in a pit and ate each other. Nice one

Here are some things you need to know in case you're ever starving. If your food is old or rotten, and you're on the brink of death, eat it anyway. Like, if you're FOR A FACT DYING. It may kill you, it may just make you super sick. But 50% chance of dying is better than 100% chance of dying. Same rule goes with water. If you're thirsting to death, drink that questionable water as a last resort. Doctors can fix sick. They can't fix dead.

It’s a bit disturbing that the animal thats usually sits on Anatoly’s shoulder disappears after Day 5 and NO ONE mentions it

I thought Gregor's "A...N..." Were part of the random letters you find around the cabin But no!! He was trying to call Anatoly's name before dying Now I'm more sad, I'm in pain

Your friends in this game are looking extremelly submissive and eatable

50:44 - I am very confused by Mariah's "no meat" comment. After acknowledging there is no food, she thanks him for not cooking meat... as if he CHOSE to not use meat, rather than there not being any.

This is the first video game I have ever seen that references the Holodomor. The creators are really brave and amazing for doing this, and I thank them for it.

Realistically, the first person they killed would have fed them for a week or so. Never understood why it didnt. He could have let the meat rot covered, cut off the moldy bits, and still made stuff out of it, Cooking meat to 165 would kill most of the bad bacteria if not all, Could have smoked it too.. Especially if he could chill it, like that "really cold corner" by gregor, would have been an easy method. No one can apparently cook so he didnt really have to worry about it. Either way, definitely could have survived on the first dead for atleast 1-2 weeks lol.

"My little companions can't be this tasty!" should've been the title

ManlyBadassHero: Hold up... where's Anatoly? Karin: *Burp* Who?

Wow. Those terryfying sprites really gave me some high-quality nightmares... So far only Yuri's realistic eyes could do the trick... That's what one calls a good ol' horror!

A lot of these implications are describing the Player as a cannibalistic murder and probably immortal. Seeing as how they're seeking refuge from Ukraine so the game probably takes place in Poland (Zakopane is also a place in Poland) and how the Player Character can supposedly control the weather...I'm at a loss. There are many Slavic folk lore that I have yet to learn of. If you know of anything close to what's being described please le me know cause I would love to read about it. EDIT: Ya'll...I feel seriously stupid now for forgetting about BabaYaga, but I haven't read too much about her as of late so thank you all so much. I'm still curious about other Slavic Floklore any of you know~♡

52:26 Wow. Not only does a potato calculates BMR and crunches out the numbers like it's nothing, they also berate you for being a desperate human being. Neat! 🥔

23:12 Silent Hill reference in a game that actually takes place on a hill that is relatively quite. nice.

It's always "fun" to see stories where people start eating each other within a week, when it's easy to go about two weeks without any food if you just have water. Well, easier than resorting to cannibalism anyway.

I love how insane they go with hunger after just literally like 2 days without food

Is this the month where manly plays all the full versions of demos that he played?

"Anatoly, I think tomorrow you should look for Mariah." _gasp_ I love it when we're the "villains" in horror games.

It's funny how in that situation I wouldn't be aware that the meat comes from, you know... I would probably be like "oh WOW meat? Where did you get it! It's a shame Mariah left just before you found it"

"We're dead! At least some of you are dead not me, I'll live" is such a brutal line holy shit

Ngl but I think "Going out" is actually them going to the basement for the player's character to "do the deed", that's why they looked so dramatic when they say goodbye before going out

Okay, I love slavic folklore, and this game is a treat, with its references and overall creepiness. Pretty sure I can identify most of the fairy tales referenced in MC's dreams, at least the overall motifs (a witch or an imp sitting on your back, Baba Yaga trying to cook a kid but falling victim to the kid's craftiness and getting cooked herself, throwing stuff behind your back to escape, having a dinner at someone's house and the person isn't eating... You are then supposed to look beneath the table and see they have hooves for feet, by the way!), and the small chicken bone MC finds... Baba Yaga much? Hell, the entire game seems to be hinting that you are Baba Yaga or a similar entity, and you've been cooking people here for ages, with the four refugees (at first my thoughts went to the recent Russo-Ukrainian War, but the setting of the game doesn't seem to be modern... So, Holodomor, maybe?) being your next victims (aside from Karin, who appears to have become your apprentice instead). My fave is Anatoly, an his little squirrel friend who goes missing halfway through the game (Did it run away? I hope it ran away...). As for the little food friends, I think they might be the spirits of your past victims, only half-aware of who they are and really worried about your new "friends" (maybe they used to be children? Like that one kid who got killed and was found in a potato barrel could be our Potato guy?). I also loved the creepy Russian whispers - they were a bit hard to make out due to the accent, but wow. A game that focuses on my cultural heritage and does it really well? I'm all for it. Now to watch the endings!

“I can’t turn the page with just my tongue!” *It suddenly clicks in my brain why MC saves the heads*

i just realized 'cooking companions' can mean two different things

you wouldn't hurt anatoly, would you? he's just a little guy. a little dude. just a lil guy you wouldn't do anything to a little guy would y

30:23 here's the timestamp if anybody wants to see the thing on your back in the dream. 43:18 oven dream 57:36 fire pit dream 1:05:20 blacksmith dream

All I can think with this game is how funny it is that they went from having plenty of food to starving with moldy bread over the course of just....a day. I feel like it'd drive home the starvation narrative better if there was more of a wind-up to the lack of food. Maybe a few more nights of the food getting steadily less extravagant, going from stew to cabbage rolls to....bread with toast, just, it's kind of hilarious.

Considering how many trees there are with decently edible inner bark, tis a pity they couldn't make any use of a good, sharp carving knife.

This game made me hungry, so I made some cabbage rolls at 1AM. I'm really content with my life and the choices I make. And it's fun to see the tired and confused face of my wife when I offer her cabbage roles in the middle of the night, when she came to the kitchen to get a glass of water.

When she screamed and manly just goes "GYAH" in the deepest voice.

I was waiting for the cabbage to just randomly go "Fun cabbage fact: your friends' flesh is delicious with lamb sauce!"

gregor is so responsible, waking them up even when theyre pissbabies about it because its for the best

To be real, I'm surprised they're so hungry SO quickly. I've gone days without eating and it SUCKS but it doesn't make you like that. Maybe if it had been like... 1 and a half weeks, or over a month of shitty rationing, but fuck they went right out the gate with this shit.

I like the touch that the MC has done this many times before, and has come to a point where they no longer care. I also get the sense that there was something more between Gregor and Anatoly. Ngl this game really disturbed me for some reason, and I’m not easily shaken!

cooking companions = people who help you cook dishes. cooking companions = an activity where the subject person is cooking their companions.

Flood fishing is common, they could have tried it right out the window or up on the roof if needed. Making a "net" out of blankets or clothes could work, at the vey least you'd get some smaller critters like tadpoles which are safe if you cooked them. It also wouldn't exert too much energy standing still. Keeping whatever fish you catch alive in an extra in a bowl or bucket would also prevent waste.

pardon if i missed details, but i'm equally terrified, fascinated and curious about why karin and the mc gets to be the last ones standing. the amount of power and influence they yield is surprising.

"Anatoly has entered the oven" almost got me dying and being cooked in the oven if you know what i mean....

Gregor is the purest himbo of all time.

_They say, the way to a person's heart is through their...skin?_ Tasty. Lots of glimpses into interesting backstory. Can't wait for part 2 and to play the game myself!

So... The MC actually HID the food. The Chompettes are actual food and are hidden around the kitchen. He lied about there not being any food just so he could get his cannibalism on.

Is it weird that I kinda ship Gregor and Anatoly like they called each other names like "Big guy" and "little guy" I find it cute Edit:and he said AND I QUOTE "I didn't get to tell him the truth... I miss him already"

The relationships of the characters seem interesting, Gregor, Anatoly and Mariah seem to know each other before (and do some have crushes on each other?) , but Karin and MC tend to not know the others too well? Karin is just pure mean, and MC is just a monster. I wonder if both of them are folk tale antagonists, and the fact that MC had the knife to begin with? The MC might be trying to reenact folk tales, so giving Karin the knife allows for everything to occur. It also seems like MC has been alive for a LONG time, as well have done this before (and controlling the rain?). Edit: oh the MC is defffinately getting people to die to eat them as seen in the raspberry dialog Interesting Interesting

The dreams are adapted Eastern-European fairy tales. I studied some for college and never thought I'd use this information.

I love how mariah randomly starts giving creepy hints on russian throughout the game

47:30 i feel so sad for Gregor, he's too precious for all of this 50:10 There's literally a ton of food in the backgeound, why are they so desperate?

I wonder if having your Social Link maxed means she'll give you back your knife since she trusts that you're on the same page as her. And based on the Internal monologue the character has had since the start, I firmly believe he's intended to be as such. Though with less violent tendencies.

Huh this artist is pretty good at drawing genuinely unnerving faces

Wanted to thank Manly again for playing this so early: nobody would know about the game if it wasn't for him. Congrats to one million!

Cabbage: "Why talk with those BORING humans? All they give you is drama!" My brain: All you'll give me is a mere hour of sustenance. You will not sate my hunger

All this creepy stuff feels kinda unnecessary when you notice that there’s pine trees RIGHT OUTSIDE THE CABIN. You can eat the inner bark of pine trees as emergency food! Same thing with maple leaves! Sure, they don’t taste great, but it’s better than whatever is going on here! Edit: okay, I admit I did comment before I got to the scene where they look outside at the floodwaters, and it doesn’t look like there’s any pine trees there, so there might not be any in walking distance. I thought that the view from the inside of the cabin showed some thru the windows, but could have been wrong.

Manly: Is there something under the sink? Me *gets closer to the laptop to see for myself* Laptop dies That was my jumpscare of the week, no more please.

"All right everyone. We got no food. We're gonna have to eat this table" -ManlyBaddassHero

Even though the MC is an immortal cannibal demon monster, some of their reactions to things seem like they oddly… have a conscience?? Having dreams about cannibalism that they react to as if they’re nightmares (including the first dream which, like Manly said, did seem a lot like they were struggling with guilt) Saying things have gone too far when they see Gregor Even dreaming about killing Anatoly only to wake up in the kitchen with no idea how they got there, makes it seem like they weren’t entirely in control when it happened

I was really sad with all the dialogue between Gregor and Anatoly. They clearly were extremely close, and I think the game was hinting that they might have even stronger feelings for each other...

The way Manlys titles progressively become more questionable lol 💀

Karin = Cabbage MC = Potato Gregor = Bread Anatoly = Onion Mariah = Raspberries

I got so excited when you got the "they call the wind" achievement! That's actually a reference to a song from a really old musical called paint your wagon! They call the wind Mariah is the name of the song! I don't see many references to it and I grew up watching old musicals and movies so that was exciting to see!

Wow, the Protagonist is terrible. He prepared Mariah for Meat, yet can't be bothered to preserve the rest? Couldn't he just cook all of it before it rots? You'd have a better chance at survival retaining the food as body fat.

You are officially Gregor. The voice you did while read was perfect!

I’m feeling distinctly confident that WE are the bad guy here

“Gregor And Anatoly come back from their meeting. Gregor is blushing slightly” HMMM I wonder what this “meeting” was👀💗😩

At first, I was hopeful that the meat they ate was Anatoly's squirrel but sheesh Mariah is scaring me

29:10 You have a strange dream. Something is riding on your back... Me: A monkey? ...and it's becoming a nuisance. Me: A monkey? ManlyBadassHero: Guilt! Me: Ah....

I love how Manly IMMEDIATELY simps for the meanest and craziest one of the bunch.

Little history time for anyone interested: the fact this is taking place in Russia is very on point and I believe the timeline is somewhere between 1932-1933 during the Holodomor aka famine of Ukraine. During this time, reports of cannibalism were rampant and Stalin even had an island (Nazinsky Island) turned into a prison settlement, giving the prisoners *no food rations* or means of survival and *they were completely surrounded by ice cold water*. Even if they survived the waters, they were shot by Stalin’s patrols on the other shoreline. People on the island quickly turned to cannibalism to survive. Between 4000-5000 people died on the island.
