Just before the main course (Gihi Gihi) - in last night's episode (Tuesday), another significant event took place - the dismissal of Ilana Avikatel. Yes, the woman who put the cabin in Avikatel lost to Benny Baruchim in the duel mission and was eliminated from the game. If you were wondering how this has not happened so far, we will note that while we are not fans of conspiracies, it is hard to ignore the fact that her loss goes well with the big move to come - the defection of the Allies to the Asi Alliance. We'll get to that and our bet on the standup's final decision.

Chapters 35-36 on the machete

Occupancy, baldness and asshole

After we said goodbye to Ilana, Guy put on the face of Givon Caspi (did you not see "our song?") And declared that he was not ready for his survivors to be hungrier. Ah ha. In short, the awful food mission - Hir Wei Cam. Against the background of the promos and reactions that came out even before the episode aired, we arrived prepared for the horrors. What will it be this time - a shark's spleen? Bulbul of scorpions? No matter, we'll deal with it. Besides, we memorized for ourselves, everything is a cultural matter. After all, there are people for whom it's a delicacy ... and despite all that, what a chapter of recovery.

As usual, start lightly - chicken skewers. That is, chicken intestines. "Vegetarians close their eyes," Israel laughs, and Idan looks at the skewer as if trying to revive the poor chicken. What to do? On the one hand he has been a vegetarian for seven years, but on the other hand if he loses first he will get a nice note with his name in the ballot box, meaning his disqualification at such an early stage is not only his risk of dismissal but also a blow for his whole alliance, which will lose its advantage. He has no choice but to eat and the one who loses in the end is my son - the only man who honestly should not be afraid of the next tribal council.

Immediately after that comes the most visually appalling dish - a duck embryo. Aside from the fact that the combination of the word "pass" in any dish evokes rather nauseating associations, the general shape of the egg was ... in the gut. However, at this point it is pretty clear that the athletes have reached the mission imbued with a goal - Jordan and Kozi finish first as if for nothing. Their ally era, however, can no longer and retires. A rooster's stomach muscles also wash Regev, and a bull's asshole (yes, yes) brings out quite animalistic movements from Israel, but in the end it loses.

only meat

At this point one should dwell again on the fact that food is also a cultural matter - simply because it is the easier barrier to dismantle. I mean, if you're a vegetarian, you certainly did not enjoy this episode. For those of you who are not vegetarians and are still disgusted, Kozi rightly mentions: "Guys, this is meat." At the strategic level, this is probably also the best way to succeed in this task, which is mostly emotionally complex. After all, it is not that they were asked to eat stones.

Were we able to reassure you? Beauty. Because then comes the head of a rooster that physically lowers Israel to the floor, but washes Asi (and we thought he was the king of the roosters!), Rooster legs that finally get Israel out of the mission, and coconut tree worms that also wash Alina.

Finally comes the mission in question, the one that starred in the promo, aroused the wrath of animal organizations and also infuriated quite a few people who were simply shocked by eating a clear symbol of the corona crisis - the bat dish. Well, it turns out not like her scream. Do not really eat the bat in its current form, but more as a ready-made soup with parts of a bat's face. Although we do not know what the taste of the dish was, but the form of serving raises the question of how it is actually different from soup other parts of the face that we are used to eating, other than that we are not used to eating bats and that they may carry a deadly virus?

• Eat bats ?! 400 complaints against "survival"

Still, the bat's body was still there, over and over and over again. She pumped in promos and danced at the beginning of the mission, even though in practice she was not eaten at all. Yes, her job was different - to create a horrible visual image that would seep into our heads and also upset those who should. In practice, as mentioned, it worked even better than they intended, because of the link to Corona, which at the time of filming was something no one imagined would happen.

At the end of the round, Jordan eventually defeated Kozi and won immunity, and we got a lesson from a thousand (and a half) on the willpower of serious athletes and also on the relationship between our initial shock and what actually happened.

May: First wave of complaints against "survival"

June: Second wave of complaints against "survival"

July: Third wave of complaints against "survival"

This loss of Kozi is very significant for him and puts him in serious danger of dismissal. Finals seem to be saying to make the move, but since Assi suggested he choose whoever he wanted, he would not choose the era or Jordan that his close friends were until a moment ago, but would go for a less painful and more forgiving “betrayal”. Koji is probably his safe bet, in part because he is perceived as the least nice figure in the Athletes Alliance. If so far it has not been clear, Kozi is also our bet for whoever will be ousted in the next council.

• Continuing to talk about "Survival" on the reality blog "Armchair Sweet Potato"

They really said it :

"What's beautiful about Eastern culture, they know how to appreciate food here, because they just eat everything" (Guy, preparing the ground for horrors)

"Shall we move on to meatballs?" (Israel, optimistic)

Jerby, does your appetite open up? "(Guy, shows the" survival "version of the waitress' harassment in the restaurant as soon as you take your first bite)

"There is some kind of stomach-to-stomach encounter" (Israel, Poet, The Poetics of Disgust)

"Whoever wants to be like an ox and behave like an ox and win like an ox, must eat the place from which the ox defecates" (Guy. In short, a task from the ass)

"I'll add this to my resume: world champion, Olympic medalist, bull's asshole" (Jordan, that's what a real matador sounds like)

"There is nothing to eat, eat an asshole" (Kozi Antoinette)

"These will continue to eat politely with your mouth closed" (Guy, it's just important not to disgust anyone in this task)

"I have something shocking to tell about the bull's anus. It was quite tasty ... it felt a little pampered even" (Alina, in tribute to Eyal Shani)

"I'm trying to lead a plan here" (Guy, on Israel's reactions. Really, vomit quietly)

"You have a piece of worm on your chin" (Ella to Alina. Thanks Bobby!)
