Things are about to get raw on Portlandia.

This week, Brendan (Fred Armisen) and Michelle (Carrie Brownstein) were feeling lethargic, sluggish and generally under the weather until they discovered that raw milk is a miracle cure-all. A miracle that the FDA is trying to prevent you from enjoying! Check out this clip as they storm a doctor’s (Ed Begley Jr.) office to spread the truth about raw milk.

“I farted. Excuse me.”

The 4-year-old says that 20 times a day, anywhere, but especially when grandma visits.

Raphael Brion of Eater writes that on the Friday episode of Portlandia, portlandia-fart-patioteachers Malcolm (Fred Armisen) and Kris (Carrie Brownstein) go to Prasad Cafe, a local, raw vegan restaurant (it’s actually a rea

l restaurant/juice bar in Portland that serves “wholesome vegan bowls” and things like chipotle vegan scramble). The side effects of raw vegan bowls is, of course, massive flatulence.

“We’ve been getting a lot of complaints,” says the waitress. “If you do need to flatulate, we have a designated area.” She sends them to the Fart Patio, which is like the Portland version of a cigarette smoking patio.
