Want to feel completely inadequate as a man? All you have to do is take in an episode or two of the Discovery Channel’s Man vs. Wild. Bear Grylls is the manliest man around. How could he not be with a name like that?

Bear voluntarily strands himself in some of the toughest environments on the globe all in the name of showing us how to survive. While stories have surfaced exposing some of the falsities in the program (Bear sometimes sleeps in hotels! Gasp!), one thing has to be true: Bear eats the grossest things in the whole wide world… ever.

Case in point, in last night’s new episode Bear comes across Bear country (things get confusing in the wild when your name is also an animal). Food is scarce and Human Bear is desperately in need of protein. Luckily, he finds some Animal Bear poop with some whole chunks of what is likely fruit. He gives it a little wash in the water from his canteen and eats up. Mmmm, tastes like shit. But it has protein, protein, protein, as Human Bear will consistently remind you.

Have you lost your appetite for lunch yet?

No? Well then good because bear poop may not even be the grossest thing Bear Grylls has ever ingested. For those with a strong stomach, here are the worst “foods” Bear has eaten or drank on the show. Viewer beware.

Sheep’s Eye Ball

It’s not so bad, if you like eating cold gloop. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Large Beetle Larvae

Don’t be fooled, the first two or so go down smoothly. It’s the last bugger that really gets you. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Camel Juice

When you’re dehydrated and you need water, it doesn’t matter where it has to come from. Even if that means disemboweling a camel, removing the semi-digested food matter and squeezing it to drink the liquid that escapes. But at least it has plenty of protein?

Snake

The poor, still living snake never saw it coming. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Salmon

You’re probably thinking, “I eat salmon all the time, big deal.” Do you eat it straight from the river, still wriggling? That’s what I thought. And be warned, this one’s got some blood. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Scorpion

Ignore the foreign language captions and focus on the disgusting scorpion. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Maggots

Bear discovers a carcass and moves past the rotting meat. Instead he digs into the maggots. He just bites off the heads first, because that’s the most disgusting part. But at least it has plenty of protein.

Zebra

Picture that cute zebra from your childhood visit to the zoo. Now picture Bear Grylls cutting off its leg and eating it raw. But, hey, at least it has plenty of protein.
