Steak Guy and Spinach Can

The Healthy Band is a group of talking food-related characters that teach about nutrition and health through music and singing that appear in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 5. They are a band, but they are considerably amateurish singers (except for Bread Boy) and their song is filled with more talking than actual singing.

The Steak and Spinach Can briefly appear in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared 6, and the Steak also makes an appearance in the TV series episode "Electricity".

Members[]

The members include (in order of appearance):

  1. Bread Boy, a loaf of bread who uses spoons to drum on a jar of peanut butter and a jar of jam (disappears after the first part)
  2. Spinach Can, a can with leaves or some sort of green vegetable, presumably spinach or chard, sticking out of its mouth and top
  3. Steak, a human-sized raw steak with short brown hair and a bone protruding from its head looking like a chef's hat (possibly the leader of the gang)
  4. Fridge, a refrigerator joins later on.

Story[]

Their song says that foods that are actually healthy are unhealthy, and vice versa, and they contradict one another over what foods are good for you and what foods are bad and "will make your teeth go grey" (the running gag of this episode). Some food will also make your gums go gray or your kidneys bleed.

They become worried (particularly Steak) when interrupted by the telephone ringing, though they themselves interrupt or ignore Duck's questions.

It is not known what happens after Duck tries to escape (it's possible that he was warned by Red Guy on the phone), but he found himself in a dark Hospital Room with Monster Cans that eat his organs and put them into smaller cans, which are then eaten by Yellow Guy. As a lot of "Duck cans" appear in their song and it even appears in their food chard and Fridge pointing to a "Duck can" in the microwave saying "try something else on your plate" it's possible that they have something to do with that.

Teachings[]

Their teachings can be summed op in these points:

  • Hunger comes from your body (Steak)
    Organ House

    The house of organs

  • Eating a lot of Roy's Flakes makes your teeth grey (Steak);
  • The body is like a house and eaten food goes from room to room and greets all the organs;
    • The good, healthy, food is nice and polite to organs and is invited to stay for a party (Steak);
    • The bad, not healthy, foods are rude and must leave (Steak);
  • Eating a plate of spaghetti makes your "gums" grey (Steak);
  • Normal plain looking foods such as bread, cream, white sauce and aspic keep the body ticking nicely (Steak);
    Looking at the Human Body Model

    Steak pouring cream in a body model

  • Fancy, showoffy foods like cooked meats, fruit salads, soil foods and yolk clog up the body with unnecessary details (Steak);
  • plain white sauce is healthier than pizza (Spinach Can);
  • Plain white sauce makes your teeth go grey (Steak, contradicting himself);
  • A lovely pie makes you sad inside (Steak);
  • Ice cream beef makes your teeth go grey (Steak);
  • Kidney spleen makes your teeth go grey (Spinach Can);
  • Eating yeast will make the grey color in your teeth go away (Fridge);
  • Eating too much yeast makes your teeth grey (Steak);
Health Shape

The food groups can easily be sorted using this simple health shape


Villainous Acts[]

  • Steak poking Duck with a fork.
  • Ignoring and interrupting Duck's arguable comments.
  • Spreading misinformation about several of food choices.
    • For instance, the Healthy Band listed fruit salad as a fancy, unhealthy food.
    • They also listed some foods, like aspic and bread, as plain, healthy food, which is not very tasteful.
    • Steak in particular contradicts himself over white sauce.
  • Possibly sent Monster Cans to dismember Duck's organs into cans.
  • Hypnotizing Yellow Guy and making him eat Duck's organs.

Trivia[]

  • In the "It's Nice That" interview Red Guy states that he's trying out an all-plain foods diet, something that the Healthy Band considers healthy. Red Guy follows by saying that it causes some horrible side effects.[1]
  • The Healthy Band is so far the only group of teachers in the series who directly killed a main character, in this case, Duck Guy (though they use the Monster Cans to claim the victim).
  • The Healthy Band is the only "teacher" aside from The Love Cult to consist of more than one main teacher.
  • The Bread is the only member of The Healthy Band who is seemingly not an antagonist or a villain.
