LMAO Lori tried pulling the women card with them yet still lost 😂😂

The fact that Mark didn’t do his “ answer now or I’m out” shows how much he really wanted this

The binge watching power of this show in unbelievable.

As per the latest Shark Tank Update, Umaro has a net worth of $70 Million USD. Umaro generates $5 million in revenue annually. Mark Cuban invested $1 million in Umaro Bacon for a 7% stake in the company. In addition to Cuban's investment, Umaro raised over $12 million more from outside funding.

I like how the title immediately gives away the outcome, completely ruining any tension that could have developed. It's like watching sports highlights of your team and the title gives you the score. Well, there goes the fun of finding out what happened!

I really respect Mark for the deals he makes. Hes really trying to change the world. BTW please stop putting spoilers in the title.

Robert's face told me everything I needed to know 🤣🤣🤣

The patent to use seaweed for plant based meat options is massive value. No wonder Mark went for a huge deal for just 7%. He knows that even if their meats don’t sell that well, he could cut a deal with a major plant based meat manufacturer for royalty or selling off the patent outright for $100s of millions

That is the maddest Lori has ever looked. I think she thought the girl power was going to shine through...

“I don’t eat protein, hate the ocean & short haired women. For those reasons, I’m out” - Barbara

Lori's face as she says "Bummer" is priceless 🤣. You could see jealousy filling up the tank as she pretends it's all good ... man 😂😂😂.

Its amazing to see how mark instantly knows this will go big. My guy doesn't invest in people coming in with millions in sales but goes with the vision and puts up 1M for 7 instantly.

2:10 is a reaction I’ve never seen someone eating real 🥓 have….

Mark's face when lori said she wanted to be part of this deal is golden.

LMAO they offered 1 mil at 8% to Kevin but reduced it to 7% for Mark 😂

Lori said that Mark “outmoneyed” her. But I think a big factor for the entrepreneurs was having shared values with Mark regarding veganism.

The lady in short hair should be an actress esp in movies with space themes

What I like most is she found her partner that took her role serious. And the work and education she pursued made her a valuable piece to the overall vision.

He didn't just "out-money" Lori, as she said at the end; not only was his deal lower equity (at the very end, when he accepted their counter-offer), but he didn't impose a non-dilution requirement like she did (for the next round).

For this product Mark was the best shark because he seemed to understand the value of the tech and science behind it. The consumer sales part of it will eventually come

Right when Marc yells “I’ll do that deal” you know he’s got it

Mark just tossed $1M to them without even blinking, LOL. Sign me up for that

Wow. I didn’t see that deal coming at all. very surprised by the outcome.

I’m glad they didn’t fall for the weak selling point of “I’m a woman too so you should accept my deal”. As Mr. Wonderful has said countless times, a good business person doesn’t let their emotions cloud their judgement.

Mark & Lori are so competitive with each other.

The unintentional hilarity from the fact that Shark Tank requires them to have an actual tangible product to pitch... "We have developed a revolutionary method to extract protein from seaweed! This is changing the world! We're going to save the planet!" "OMG, how are you going to do that?!" "By selling bacon."

Mark had to have been in a really good mood or just wanted to beat Lori for the deal considering he gave them the 1M for 8% they asked for, and then 7% when they countered lol.

I have never seen mark make an offer that quick 😂

Mark: You need to raise a boatload of money Emma, 10 seconds later: You need to raise a boatload of money Insightful

I'm a patent attorney. Patent application means you DO NOT have a patent yet.

To see Mark that excited you know it’s good & love to see how they are ok with each other after wards like real adults🤙🏽 most of the time at least lol

Robert's reaction tells me everything. I'm shocked anyone even made an offer considering they don't have current sales and proof of a viable product from a marketing standpoint. However, there is so much potential with plant-based protein products and the patent on the extraction process with this special protein source might be the key. I would have asked more questions about how their extraction process is any different than current extraction processes from other plant sources to determine if other manufacturers can/cannot use current processes for extraction.

I love how I didn't notice the title until the end after the deal was made!! Bless the Lord My heart goes out to all those who can't say the same

Mark each time plant based food presented : "shut up and take my money !!"

Robert takes a bite and spits it out 😂😂😂😂😂

2 things I didn't get in this pitch: 1. Why they didn't have a good comeback (or maybe they did and the show didn't air it) to Robert's question of "why your product and not a soy-based alternative?" at 5:28 . I was expecting them to say "no, because soy-based alternatives carry this troublesome environmental consequence that our product doesn't". 2. Why they focused SO MUCH of their pitch on selling "the best bacon ever". Mark, Lori and Kevin got the point: this is NOT ABOUT BACON, it is about developing a brand of protein-rich products/foodstuffs made of seaweed. So even if Robert doesn't like the "chewy" bacon he tasted, that is irrelevant for the bigger picture of the business, which is to revolutionize how people source protein from nature.

The fact that they have a patent covering the use of seaweed in plant-based meats is huge.

original offer: 2%, 500K. Then she says she will allow 8% for 1 Mill? No wonder Mark jumped on that so fast...she halved her evaluation instantly with that comment...

Mark the Rich-y man is funny as hell 😭😭😭 I love mark and lori’s dynamic always

I like the negotiation skills of you. You really get the best out of everything that a shark can offer

Just because they come from silicon valley, these people are completely delusional with their valuations. I would never have made an offer of 8%. crazy. I thought Mark had business sense.

The moment Robert opens his mouth I know that 99% he’ll find a reason to go out. If you have the script of all episodes he’s been in, the most repeated sentences he says are “can I try it?“ “I just don’t see it” “I just don’t get it” “I’m out” . He rarely sees anything, even some of the most successful businesses in Shark Tank e.g. Scrub Daddy. Many times he offers a deal just for the sake of having an offer as he’s been out too much, and asks for 45-50% of the business knowing that the owner won’t accept it and he has another way to stay out! This my 2nd YT comment on Shark Tank ever. I was so surprised to see ppl making so many jokes abt Barbara who’s definitely a much better Shark than Robert. Barbara knows her strengths and whenever she’s into a deal, she’s sharp like a samurai sword. And, she has more than one most successful deals on Shark Tank.

Actually pulling the "mark would you go down to 7% percent" was a stroke of genius on her part, Mark was pressured by Lori's offer so he had to accept it in order to not lose this deal

How could you get a patent to take protein from a plant to plant based food? That sounds insane, if I wanted to go to the ocean, get seaweed, cook it to get protein out of it, and serve it at a restaurant I don't want to get sued. Can someone explain this?

Mark Cuban makes the best deals in the history of Shark Tank. Lori must have been so bummed out after this one :(

This is huge! Way to go ladies and Mark!

Roberts reaction after the first bite stole the episode lmao

Robert's "Wow" is starting to rival that of Owen Wilson's.

Can't believe they turned down Lori's financially-worse deal even though, as Lori repeatedly reminded them, she too is female.

How can over half of the sharks say how bad the product tastes and they still get a $1M investment when the product literally hasn't been sold at all? I'm confused by this one

Mark spent 1M easily and he ok immediately when she ask for 7% so this is propably a great product in Mark eyes.

I can imagine Barbara going inside one the restaurants that serves their bacon screaming I'm out.

Badass women put family first

I always love how vegans swear their food tastes just like the real thing. Nah man, I’ve been eating meat for over 30 years, you can’t fool me lol

Why do they look like they just came off the set of Top Gun 2 though?

You know it’s big when mark immediately jumps in with an offer

Sam Hyde's 2070 paradigm shift TED talk realising itself before our eyes, beautiful.

Why would I eat this when regular bacon is lower calories, more protein and tastes way better? I know I don’t eat bacon for protein but this whole idea is ridiculous. I thought this was a protein bar or something bacon was an awful idea.

mark really went for it outright. he couldve gotten like 10-15% for 1 mil, since they offered kevin for 8% .. so they should have more flexibility from their start offer.

I have a hunch based on the title that they got a deal from Mark

Honestly, I don't think we're ever going to stop eating animals. I do see humanity eating more plant based foods though, not " plant based meats". I think they should stop trying to replicate meats and just come out with some REALLY GOOD product that's plant based and sell it as is. Edit: PBM

I hope Umaro was the last pitch of the day because it looked like Lori needed a Doctor 😂

yesss keep up the recent shark tank episodes

The look on Lori's face was priceless, Mark only took the 7% offer to see her reaction definitely well worth it...

so we are all just ignoring the way Lori ate her bacon 😂

Honest question: why do people who swear on plant based diets always try to replicate animal products?

Lori's face at 8:51 is absolutely worth the million dollars mark spent.

Great presentation ladies❤

I love seaweed. I buy it in the to go packets that costco sells and eat it, like that, by itself. I don't want to eat a seaweed bacon. I don't want seaweed pepperoni. When I want pepperoni (which is not often) I eat it. When I want bacon (which also, it is not that often) I buy a sandwich with bacon. I like each food for what it is. It is good to eat more plant based foods. They taste delicious. And animal food tastes delicious too. Variety is good.

Now they’re 16M in just 3months

If some one says in a pitch that my mission is to protect planet, that’s totally bullshit 😂.

Dude that 8% to 7% negotiation, unbelievable man

I watched the behind the scenes on this episode. Barbara called them after the show to let them know she is out.

There’s an inherent problem in vegans making stuff that tastes like things they have either never had or chosen to not eat for a long time 😂

When kevin didnt fuss about that valuation for a prototype i knew they were on to something

This is the best pitch on Shark Tank that I've ever seen.

I would have died if they said they met on Tinder. LOL

Great presentation and product. I see them going far!

Lori calling Mark "the Richy man" goes to show you that envy is rife among the "rich people" not just between the "poor" and the "rich". There will always be someone who has more than you and less than you. Wealth is relative.

Jumpsuits. Are we not going to talk about the jumpsuits? Like Sigourney Weaver in Aliens movie

The disrespect 😂 Mans spat that bacon out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

you can see the pain on Lori,s eyes at the end. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Somewhere in England, Rory lifts his head, his seaweed sense tingling

I don't understand these people on this show sometimes. When Mark says no I don't want to go in with Lori what he means is he does not want to split the equity with her and do 500k each for 4%. But I guarantee he would have been perfectly happy to work with her if his equity wasn't effected. They could have asked him would you do the $1M for 8% if we also include Lori separately at 500k for 4%, for total of $1.5M at 12%? There's absolutely no reason he'd say no. In fact he'd be better off using both of their connections and her ability to market the product and help them grow faster, and he'd still get the equity he wanted. Because the ladies are planning to bring in more investors anyways, they said they're trying to raise $10M. It would have been worth floating the idea at the very least.

I thought about seaweed protein a month ago and saw it coming. Very smart idea and needs millions to get it going. It will be a huge staple moving forward. The only problem i might see is pollution, radiation, contaminants, etc. I think Japan harvests seaweed by Fukishima i think.

Robert's reaction inspires me to get my gear and go hunt some boars

Just imagine being so rich that you have 1 million to hand out for 7% of a prototype

Barbara:” I dont know what food means, and for that reason I’m out”

Amazing woman coming up with this and trying to make the world better 👏🏽

Title is a spoiler. I wonder if Robert keeps flying under Barbara radar?

It wasn't just that they created it but they have patents. That's why Mark didn't mind paying $1 million for 7%. That patent for s growing industry is a goldmine.

Considering stocks like Beyond Meat went public and were worth billions of dollars, Mark knew his investment will either be 100x, or 0. And for him he was willing to take that gamblee.

Why Lori gotta bite the bacon strip from the side like that! just why!

500k for 2 percent and nothing brought to market. Crazy.

The hypocrisy with these foods is that they’re simulating meat and agreeing that meat tastes good. If they just focused on making seaweed strips that are as little processed as possible and optimally seasoned instead of trying to make it taste like bacon they’d be better off imo.

8:09 wow I finally found the clip of them not going together when I saw this on shorts a week and a half ago. 15.3.23 now

Never herd of Umaro and that bacon looks sick in a bad way . Robert's reaction says it all !

'The companies name is too dumb.For those reasons, I'm out" -Barbara

I love how kevin thought this was worth 500k for 8% while thinking atlas monroe which actually had a vegan fried chicken product ready to sell wasnt worth 500k.

Mark the Richie man LOLLL!!!😂 he outbids everyone
