Hello everyone, thank you for watching! While, Of course there are far more pressing matters to be addressed in this world of ours right now, I hope this video brought you a few minutes of joy. I’m sending my love. #BlackLivesMatter

I’m glad that she actually mentioned that it doesn’t taste like bacon. idk why I just like her honest short review, besides recommending that it can be placed in the wrap.

use salt cause das your business.

Aria's 'oh yes' at the end was brilliant 😂

"Its yuh girl Merle " should be an official intro

2:42 Merle, you go ahead and add some salt to this, because that's your business

I’ve been wanting to try this so bad and you’ve solidified that i have to do it

The content on this channel is so refreshing😭😂 I never know what’s next. One day it’s tomatoes being turned into egg and now it’s carrots as bacon😂

You can’t make a tabitha video without saying cause that’s my business and like so like that

Am I wrong, or does Merle look like she finally *feels* as beautiful as she is? "Oh Yes!"

I love how he remembers what she did the day after "they confessed their love". So cute. Recipe is short on some fat replacement. Bacon has a lot of fat. Even after you melt fat by frying it gives bacon that defining taste.

Pour extracts like the liquid smoke into the cap before dunking it in! That's why the cap is so tiny!

Merle, seeing your cooking videos truly warms my heart! Thank you!

Aria personality has somehow attached to Merle. Merle looks so much more outgoing and comfortable now.

I just love that the title of the videos are 'I TRIED to make....', because it's not always gonna have a good ending, but it's ALWAYS fun to watch

i read the title as “i tried making a vegan carrot out of bacon”

I love how her hair is so messy yet looks good #cantrelate

A good sub for bacon is smoked tofu in thin strips, salted and fried on the stove at High heat

I love seeing your videos in my feed, you radiate such bright and positive energy, I love it 💜

I’ve tried this recipe before If you get there seasonings right it tastes good But not like bacon

Tabbitha Brown is my spirit animal.

I’m addicted to watching these videos!!! Love seeing your reactions and friends reacts to these creations 😂😂

I just love your personality and humor....Thanks for the honesty as well in your video!!

This channel is so wholesome🥰🥰 good job Merle!

"I love salt" I feel this on a different level

bless you for thinking of us ear/headphone users.

Better and thanks for putting respect on Tabitha's name and say that she is the source of the recipe.

Yay! I’m so glad you made these also the fact that you responded to my dm about trying these. Plus i love how much aria supports you and everything you do!

As someone who doesn’t eat bacon I would definitely try it out!

I missed them together 😻😻😻😻 hadn't seen a video in a long time

I never try to make "meat alternatives" expecting or wanting it to taste like meat but it seems like it's ingrained in our minds that "real meals" can't be just carrots in a wrap or veggies as a main dish

Have made this so many times. It’s amazing!!

my dad made this a while ago, i dint taste like bacon, but it still tasted good. you guys should try it!!

Thank you for giving credit to Mrs. Tabitha Brown ☺️ we can all support each other and be great TOGETHER

YESSSS MORE MERLE

youtube recommended this fast..

3:50 LMFAOOOOO I CANT-

Watching this eating baby carrots and hummus.

Someone tell Andrew that Aria is coming for his “Oh yes!”

Try Shiitake mushrooms - sliced, of course 😉 marinated with some vegetable oil, soy sauce and smoked paprika! Bake in oven for ab 30-40 minutes at 120°/240 fahrenheit, depending on the oven, keep an eye on them and turn them around a couple of times. They'll be crisp when they're cooled off.

Omg y’all confessed your love!! 😭😭😍 yayy!! So adorable!

Just discovered your channel and I’m binge watching ♥️

also you can grill carrot with a bit of olive oil and rosmary on the bbq

I think for a great and healthier snack those would be great and try worthy 👍👍

The Tabitha's spicy salmon roll recipe is extravaganza

That looks yummy!

"Looks like potpourri." Hahahahaha, Aria 😂

And now I've officially watched all the merle videos that were ever produced. Bittersweet moment it is..

The “oh yes” end of the video made me think of when Harry met Sally. “I’ll have what she’s having” :)

5:01 my mom: *ARE YOU WATCHING PORN*

I love Tabitha!!!

Yay yay!!! I commented this in the other video!!! Thanks!!

Chef John over on Food Wishes KZfaq channel made eggplant bacon. I tried it and it was pretty good. Still doesn't taste like bacon, but it was pretty amazing.

And also the "oh yes" just made my day🤣

Yummmm, I just saw the viral carrot bacon video earlier. I hope it turns out well for you chef and it already looks tasty from the thumbnail🕺.

omggggg literally before you said “maybe watch one of her videos after you watch this” i was already planning on watching one of her videos 🤣🤣🤣

I’m so happy they gave credit to my Queen tabitha

I kinda knew it merle gonna try it when I saw inga trying it

Merle is such a great on camera personality. LOL very relatable

I love salt too

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha carrot bacon. I died. 🤣

You have the best name ever. I’m naming my daughter Merle. It’s so cool.

Yayyyy I love your channel

I think if I were to experiment making vegan bacon myself in a home kitchen out of a veggie, where the goal was to make it taste as much as bacon as possible rather then look. I would go for zucchini, because it can soak up loads of oil. Healthy no, but we are going for a bacon dupe here. And get some oil with loads of nice smoke flavour in it. I would cut the zucchini into into long slices, then do a quick mini smoke. Use a palms full of smoking wood chips (something with loads of nice smoke flavour maybe hickory) on a fire proof tray, light them on fire, lay the zucchini and a bowl of peanut oil next to the wood chips, cover all of it with a large glass or metal bowl so the bowl extinguishes the fire and traps the smoke. Let it smoke for like minimum 15-25 minutes, but maybe up to like 40-60 min. While making a marinade. Use a tiny amount of liquid smoke, some vegemite, a small dash of tamari, garlic powder, lots of salt, a tiny bit of paprika and black pepper. Add a few tablespoons of a mushroom stock to loosen the marinade up a bit. Then marinade the zucchini for a few minutes. And fry in the smoked peanut oil and let the zucchini soak up loads of oil. Then fry to pretty crispy. I’m thinking something fatty, crispy with strong hits of salt and smoke. With some deep umami and braised undertones. But the texture will be pretty off. Wrong kind of crispy.

This looks really good! Can I do this on a stove top? With a frying pan like regular bacon? I don't have an oven or air fryer.

Made this yesterday morning! Nice crunch and kinda smokey but bacon is goat, but always nice to cut down

just tried making souffle pancakes on my channel now gonna have to try making tik tok recipes this looked fun!

Try rice paper bacon! It's pretty good especially on a BLT. You could also make tofu scramble (vegan scramble eggs)...if tofu is vegan! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thats why you cover it with your finger to pour out a tiny bit only

Lol the ending “OhHhHh YeS”

My main problem is that I cannot get liquid smoke unless I have it shipped. The other problem is that mail delivery is backed up by 3 months for fed ex, UPS, and Canada Post. I ain't getting anything non essential shipped for a long time.

3:51 for all the Merlia fans

We do be liking the content doe! Stay safe xxx

I love Merle and Aria😜

Is Aria getting shorter or is Merle getting taller 😭

Merle : here I am cooking something vegan Aria : spill a tea..."TMI time!"

I'm glad I don't hate myself enough to trick myself into thinking that I'm happy eating carrots in place of bacon.

I’m not vegan at all, but I specifically watch any vegan substitute recipes because Merle is in them 😭

It was fun for a couple of videos. With a minute into this, take a right out of the vegan lane! *Whooooos*

This girl is giving me Jenny Lorenzo vibes :) the energy, the aura... They're on the same bar.

Oh yeah ? Well, I'm gonna make carrots ...out of BACON !!! How you like them Apples ! 🤣

Love Tabitha

I feel like you should try the salmon and bacon again but with sweet potato, I really wanna know if it works 😂

I saw the original tiktok weeks ago and when I saw this, I was hoping it would be about it 👍

You went to light on the seasoning!! A little more of liquid smoke and the other stuff and it gets really close!! Great video as always

I love these videos but i need new titles for them 😂 like so many of these are “I tried making vegan (insert thing) out of (insert thing)” 😂😂

I love carrot bacon. It's a delicious alternative because I can't eat pork or red meat.

Good recipes

Omggggg love this!

Hey merle did you deactivate your Instagram account.Hope you are fine.

I've watched Tabitha's videos on here in the past and when I found her on tiktok I literally cried I love her so much lmao

2:43 you missed the opportunity to say "cos thats my business"

Inga made this too!

love ur vids. i may have some vegan weekends 😋😋

You should make bacon out of Rice paper!! I saw a recipe on tiktok

That moment aria overdo his reaction to merle at the end it becomes inappropriate and they gotta cover it 😂😂

You should make two separate videos where you try making vegan bacon out of coconut, and out of eggplant :)

Merle and aria look just alike 🤣

I once made carrots out of pork chops, I cut it in the shape of a carrot and put orange food coloring on it and when I tasted it....WOW, it tasted like carrots.

Just get red seaweed(Nori). Fry's like bacon, even tasted like bacon. At least to me anyway.
