He writes in the video description customers select "six veggies, five fruits, four proteins, three starches, two saucy items, and one fun thing for yourself."

They choose four proteins comprising of two kinds of fish, plain yoghurt and eggs. Their three starches are burger buns, rice and frozen waffle fries.

For their two sauces Coleman and DeWindt selected Yuzu vinaigarette and coconut milk. For their fun items the pair chose their favourite drinks.
