The system that places a pound of pre-ground beef in a plastic-wrapped Styrofoam tray on a supermarket shelf is a complex and—let's face it—largely unnatural one. But it doesn't have to be this way.

In this episode, Omar and Ben try to "shorten the food chain" by creating a veggie burger made out of what a cow eats. A better burger competition at Chicago's DePaul University will decide whose burger is best, but the best judge of these burgers shows up at the restaurant later that night. Billy Goat Sam, the cheeboiger, cheeboiger, cheeboiger, king of burgers who was made famous by John Belushi and Dan Akroyd in a sketch on Saturday Night Live is a special guest at MOTO.
