Fast Food Greatest Hits (Marathon)

It’s a fast food marathon. Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Marathon. And Happy New Year’s Eve. Oh my goodness, the wee hours of 2025 are upon us. The wee hours. The wee hours. That’s a small. They’re small, they’re getting smaller and smaller. The weaning. The waning. The waning. That’s the thing that I was thinking, but then I try to make sense of it. I thought I did. The waning hours, or as some people say, the wee hours of 2025 are here. I’m glad this year’s over. I’m gonna be honest. Oh, come on. I’m looking forward to next year, man. Big 26. Tomorrow. Everything’s fixed at 26. Freaking tomorrow, dude. Okay, yep. We’ll be in it. Mm-hmm. Because, well, not, uh, not us now, but us. You then. Mm-hmm. Us then, and you now. So we’ve decided to give you a fast food marathon to help you cross over. Oh God, that sounds horrible. Yeah. Like, I mean. To the new year, to just transition into the 26. Yeah. Of it all. And if there was ever gonna be a patron saint of fast food, it’d be us, right? Yeah, I think so. It’d be us. I think so. Right? Would it be us? I mean, all we need is an American in the Vatican with enough pull to make it happen. I mean, yeah. And just in case someone like that does exist, and just in case that someone is watching right now, I mean today we’re taking a look back at some of our favorite fast food moments with a marathon. And this one is, especially for you, Pope Leo, I mean, he’s got. Mm-hmm. Maybe he watches, he’s from Chicago. Yeah, he watches. That’s like the birthplace of fast food, that’s where McDonald’s is headquarters started. Well, he used to watch. He’s, I know he’s busy. Busier. But I mean, he had, he’s gotta have some downtime. I mean. Yeah, you got, you gotta. Early mornings at the Vatican. I’m sure he wants an escape. I mean, look at this. From the realities of the religious world that he’s purveying. Yeah. You know, let us help you, help us help you. Or maybe you’re, maybe you’re a cardinal who’s watching, uh, who has access. Mm-hmm. To the Pope. Mm-hmm. I don’t know, what are the other… Bishops? Maybe you’re a bishop. Mm-hmm. Bishops, cardinals, knights. Pawns. Pawns and, and, uh, rooks everywhere, uh, please send our best to the Pope. Yep. Now there cannot be fast food without a deal, right? Yeah. So we’re starting things off with a two for one. Uhhuh, Jack in the Box and Panda Express Mashup from January 18th, 2023. – If Jack in the Box and Panda Express made a baby, how would it taste? – Let’s talk about that. (bright upbeat music) (liquid bubbling slowly) (UFO whirring rapidly) (upbeat bright music ending) (flames igniting swiftly) “Good Mythical Morning.” – And it’s also a beautiful morning for some menu merging. – Uh-huh. – And this edition is gonna get more chaotic than ever. But it’s been a hot minute since we did one of these, so as a refresher, we are gonna be smashing together items from the Jack in the Box menu and the Panda Express menu into one big Jack in the Panda food extravaganza. (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – And the Jack in the box menu is already really eclectic. They have egg rolls. – Oh, yeah. – And it doesn’t make any sense, but- – Who cares? – I do love them. – Yes. – Dipped in ranch. So, why not go all the way with a Panda Express merge? – Oh, no reason not to. It’s time for “Menu Mashup! Jack in the box and Panda Express Edition.” (heavy rock music) – Alright, in each round, we’re gonna try a Jack in the box forward mashup dish with Panda Express injected into it. – Yeah. – And also, the reverse. – Right. – A Jack in the Box dish… I said that twice, but you know what I mean. – Well, but we know what you mean. (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – Well, we’re gonna choose the one that we think should go on the Jack in the Panda menu. – Right. – Only one can go- – Because that is what the restaurant will be called- – Yeah, it is. – When we open it. Well, I don’t think we have that power, but when someone does. – Trevor, what are these, dude? – [Trevor] So, that Jack in the Box on Rhett’s side is a Honey Walnut Shrimp Onion Ring. So, I took a couple of onion rings, and then we put shrimp in between ’em, and then we fried it. And then, there’s a honey walnut sauce with some walnuts on top. – So, it’s just walnut like a buncha shrimp inside there? – [Trevor] Yeah! – And an onion. – [Trevor] Two. – Oh my! How’d you get a shrimp that was a ring? – [Trevor] Well, we blended it and then put it in there. (Trevor laughing gently) – Ooh, I don’t wanna think about blending shrimp. – So, that doesn’t exist in the wild? There’s not a shrimp that has turned on itself. – Shrimp are already curved though. – [Trevor] Well yeah, but they’re not big enough. (Trevor laughing amusingly) – I’ve seen some pretty big shrimp. – [Trevor] We couldn’t get those ones. (Trevor laughing amusingly) (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – Alright. – I don’t know how you got a bunch of shrimp that look like one shrimp, but you did. – Over here, we’ve got egg rolls, which they have it Jack in the box, but this is the Panda Express side. – [Trevor] Yeah, so these are the Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger Egg Rolls. We took all the trappings of a bacon ultimate cheeseburger, minus the bun, and put it in a egg roll. – Oh my goodness. – So, this is kinda like… They have something like this at Cheesecake Factory. – But, it doesn’t look like that on the inside. This looks like it’s actually a layered cheeseburger in there, which is fun. Is there tomato peeking out of this? – [Trevor] No toma… Maybe. (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – Mmm! – No to maybe? (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – That’s my favorite way to respond to anything, “No to maybe.” – That’s pretty good though. – They’re both really tasty things. But, this makes me think that maybe nature has done something new. – Yeah, it’s really strange, but I like it. – [Rhett] It’s something that we like. – Uh-huh. – I mean, look at this shrimp. – Especially after eating more. Who would know that that’s ground up and reconstituted? – Nobody would know. – And that’s the spirit of fast food anyway. We’re picking this one to go on the menu! (heavy rock music returns) – Trevor, what did you do? – [Trevor] So that one on your side, Rhett, is the Black Pepper Angus Steak Jumbo Jack. So, we wok-seared some sirloin steak with string beans, onions, red bell peppers, and mushrooms, and a savory black pepper sauce on a bun with the burger toppings. – Wow. So, it’s got like a little bit of an Asian taste to a burger. – [Trevor] I would say so. – Hmm! Havin’ a burger where like the meat pieces just fall off individually- – That’s what’s happening to me. – Is a challenge. – Taste wise, I’m very, very pleased. That’s some tender sirloin. – I don’t love it, but I have high hopes about orange chicken nuggets. What else is in this bowl, homie? – [Trevor] Yeah, so- – Oops, dropped my phone. – [Trevor] Ah, freak. So, we have some Jack in the Box chicken nuggets that have been coated in orange sauce. And then, we made a fried rice that’s not… There’s no rice in it, it’s just chopped up curly fries with the fried rice mix-ins. – Oh no, it isn’t. – Chopped up curly fries with corn, peas, and carrots? – [Trevor] Yeah. (Trevor laughing gently) – I’m gonna eat one by itself, and then I’m going back in for rice and the thing. – I’m going in all together. – Oh, man. – Orange chicken nugget. – It kind of tastes like just a really good piece of orange chicken. – Definitely a win. Look at the inside of that Jack in the Box nugget though. – I gotta get a lot, that’s so good. – I mean, you’d think that was just powder. – It’s chicken powder. (coughing gently) But, it’s tender and juicy. – It’s so soft. (coughing gently) – And you made it even juicier by putting some sauce on it. – This round is hurtin’, I’m just gonna be honest. – You don’t like that? What’s wrong with you, man? – No. Because the nuggets are- – You havin’ a bad day? – The nuggets are not doin’ it for me, dude. – I like both of these. – I’m gonna vote for this one though because it jumps off the menu. – And it what? – It jumps into your mouth. – And it what? You can whisper it. – It Jacks in the Panda. – Okay, there we go. It’s goin’ on the menu! (heavy rock music returns) – Batten down the hatches for a meatsplosion. Good gracious, look at this! We gotta start over here, Trevor! – Wait, why don’t- – I don’t even care, look at this! – But, I think you wanna follow this up with that. – But, it’s too late! I’ve already been like, “Look at this!” – But, I’m not eating it first. – Look at this! It’s a taco! – I’m not eating it first. I’m eating it last. – And what is it? – [Trevor] What do you want me to do? (Trevor laughing nervously) – Tell me what this is! – Tell us about it, but I’m not gonna eat it first. – [Trevor] Okay, so that’s a Chow Mein Taco. So, what we’ve done is we’ve taken the chow mein from the Panda Express, and then we made it into a circle, and then deep fried into a taco shell, and then we put the taco stuff inside it. – You folded the circle over? – [Trevor] Yeah, we did. (Trevor laughing proudly) – And then, on the inside- – [Trevor] You got your beef, your lettuce, some hot sauce- – Don’t make that face. – Okay. (“Mythical” Crew giggling gently) – We’ll come back to it and eat it. (laughing happily) – [Trevor] Okay. (Trevor laughing gently) – I mean it’s gotta be… I mean, look at it. I mean, this is a breakfast burrito. – [Trevor] Yeah, that’s the Beijing Beef Meat Lover’s Breakfast Burrito. You got scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, Beijing beef chunks, red bell peppers, onions, and cheddar cheese, and some fire roasted salsa on the side. – Fire roasted salsa. And that fire roasted salsa is just some salsa that they sell. – [Trevor] Yeah. – Hmm. – It sounded like that should’ve been a, “Yeah, maybe.” – [Trevor] Yeah, exactly. (Trevor laughing gently) – It’s very Panda infused. – [Rhett] But, no Panda in there at all actually. – I just really thought I’d be sayin’, “Well, it’s a breakfast burrito,” but the Beijing beef, it really, really is the headline. – And if you get some Beijing beef along with your pork sausage at the same time- – Mm-hmm. – Did you do that, have you experienced that? – Mm-hmm. – That’s a really nice little winning combination. – It makes it really sweet. I like it. – I’m definitely diggin’ it, but this is something real special. – I am scared of this. I mean, this is the jungle you might not make yourself out of, look at that thing. You get lost in a taco. Where’d to begin? – What’s it gonna sound like when we bite it? – I’m gonna pull it apart- – Oh, of course you are. – So that I make sure that I get all of the good stuff in my first bite. – Well, it’s a little greasy. – You still deep fried the whole thing? – [Trevor] Yeah. – Just like at Jack in the Box. – I can tell. – [Trevor] Yeah. – It’s fun. – Did you feel ashamed when you did that? – [Trevor] Yeah, for sure. – It’s scary lookin’ in a good way. Points for that. – Oh, I got to some deep-fried lettuce, that was pretty nice. (“Mythical” Crew giggling gently) – Again, that’s how they do it. They put everything in the taco and they- – I’m not jokin’, I actually kinda like it. – I like this one better. It’s totally crazy. – I think it’s more unique, and I think it looks like somethin’ that if you do a commercial about that- – It jumps off the menu. – This is a novelty item. This is something that… You eat this, and you have to immediately text someone. – Mm-hmm. – You know what I’m saying? You text a relative- – Your doctor. Your cardiologist. – Or yeah, potentially a doctor. To tell ’em to… You know, you write home about it. That’s the new write-homing about it, writing home about it is texting. – Writing homing about it. – You writing homing about it. – I’m comin’ in, doc! – Okay, I still wanna eat this ’cause I just like eating things. – Okay, you just gonna go back to it and grab it? – Period. If you put something in front of me, I like to eat it. – So, we agree that this wormy-taco monstrosity- – We have to work on the verbiage that you’re using, but we’re putting it on the menu! (heavy rock music returns) Before we have dessert, you might have noticed that we’ve got some very, very nice looking travel mugs that we’ve been sippin’ on. – Yup. – This is the official Floor is Lava Mythical Travel Mug. – Very cool. You gotta get yourself one of these. – I mean, look, this has got the mythical “M” like a lava slide. – It’s the set has been taken over. – I mean, there’s Chase, there’s me, there’s Stevie, there’s you, and there’s Cotton Candy Randy. And then, there’s Josh. That’s his hand, he’s drowning in the lava. Sorry, Josh. (laughing gently) – This thing is stainless steel- – You’ll be Okay. – 20 ounces of pure travelness. And it’s got, it’s got a straw that comes in it, but also you can open and close it if you wanna have that non-spillable nature. – Non-spillable nature. – It’s got a non-spillable nature, mythical.com. – Okay, Trevor. What are you trying to do to us now? – Churros? – [Trevor] Over on your side, Rhett, we got the Cream Cheese Rangoon Churros. So, those are churros that have been stuffed with cream cheese and crispy wonton pieces, and then coated in cinnamon sugar. – Ooh, rangoon! – Rangoon. No crab, though? – [Trevor] No. – Good. – [Trevor] Why would we do that? – Yeah, I don’t know. – Yeah. And then, we got shakes over here. What makes it Pandaized? – [Trevor] Oh, so that’s a Fortune Cookie Milkshake. So, we’ve taken some milk and we’ve infused it with fortune cookies, and then added some vanilla ice cream and blended it with that milk and more fortune cookies. And I think there’s a little treat in the straw for ya. – Oh! – Oh no, you didn’t. – Well, let’s start over here and rangoon it. Dank it- – And sank it. (crunching gently) That’s a lovely taste. – I mean, a churro, when done exactly right, has like a gooey center, but it’s never gooey enough. – It’s better. Like, I always think that about churros, I’m like, “Man, if this had cream cheese inside of it, it’d be better.” – Good gosh, this is good. Good gracious, this is good, dude! – That’s decadent, man. – This is amazing. I’ma save that and I’m gonna eat the rest of it. – See, that’s what you do, you save things. Hmm. – I’m like a chipmunk! – I just see that there’s more and I’ll come to it later. – Alright, so how do we get… I can see that there’s a fortune at the end of this. (laughing gently) Do I just suck it out and like, read it in my esophagus? – [Trevor] Yeah, suck away, man. – It’ll come out? – [Trevor] I don’t know. (Trevor laughing amusingly) – No, I just sucked the milkshake through it. – Mmm. – [Trevor] What if you did a pinch maneuver, maybe pinch it up? – Oh. – Pinch it up? Oh, yes. – It pinches up? (“Mythical” Crew giggling gently) – I pinched it up. – It pitches up. – Alright, so let me see what this is. – I’ve already tasted a little bit, and I have an opinion, but I’ll hold. – “Take the writers to Chuck E. Cheese, and you will find prosperity and happiness the rest of your days.” (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) The writers wanna go to Chuck E. Cheese? – “Good fortune comes to those who give out their social security number on YouTube.” (laughing loudly) (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – I’ll tell ya- – Writers! – I thought they were easy to please, but then they’re just morally corrupt. – Mmm. (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – Let’s taste it. (slurping thoughtfully) – The taste is interesting. Because when I eat a fortune cookie, I often think to myself, “This is one of the worst desserts that exists.” (“Mythical” Crew laughing amusingly) – And you put a lot of it in this milkshake. – [Trevor] Yeah. – Almost to the point where- – It’s just like eating soggy fortune cookies. – Yeah, it’s horrible, it really is. I actually thought it could be great- – I wanted it to be good. – And then, I tasted it, and I was like, “I was absolutely wrong.” (“Mythical” Crew giggling gently) I was wrong to get my hopes up about this. – I keep trying to make it good. – It feels like I’m like slurping paper mache. Like, that’s how thick with nasty tasteless cookie it is. It’s just… I don’t even wanna go back. But this, I’m gonna go back. – Oh, goin’ back to this? – This is the best churro I’ve ever had. This is an easy one, this has to go on our menu. – Strong words, but I completely agree. – Churro rangoon, man. – Man, that’s good! – [Link] Put it on the menu! – [Rhett] Our complete Jack in the Panda menu mashup consists of Honey Walnut Shrimp Onion Rings- – [Link] Boom! – [Rhett] Orange Chicken Nugget Bowl- – [Link] Boom! – [Rhett] Chow Mein Taco. – [Link] Ooh! – And Cream Cheese Rangoon Churros. – Oh, and let me tell ya, you gotta try these. I don’t know how you’re gonna get it. – You can’t. – You gotta go- – You won’t be able to. – To Jack in the Panda! Thanks for subscribing and clickin’ that bell! – You know what time it is. Your arm was hurt. Uh, my arm was in a sling and. And now your arm’s hurt again. My, my shoulder, yeah, I broke the collarbone, but then, I mean, like. I almost did it again. Yep. I did the exact, I had the exact same bike accident. If you watched the, one of the last episodes of Ear Biscuits, um, before we take the indefinite break. Yeah. Um, don’t know if you know that, but that’s what we’ve done. Uh, I explained that I had the exact same bike accident that broke my collarbone. I just fell a little bit better. Oh. And I was in a sling for a little bit, but look at me, I’m, I’m still, yeah. I dodged a bullet. So that was. It was a wake up call. So that was almost exactly, uh, two years ago. Yep. So you’re on the every two year cadence. It took me that long to, to forget that I needed to pay attention and not go over my handlebars. Okay, well, how do we make sure it lasts longer than two years this time? Yeah, you can, you can ride piggyback whenever I get on my bike and you can whisper my ear constantly to be careful. Uh, I think that would put me in more danger than I’m willing to be in for this. That’s your problem. I mean, I might have to go see the pope soon. Um. You know, I mean, I gotta be in full health. We’ve done others, other mashups, KFC, Chipotle, McDonald’s, Taco Bell. You want us to do some more? You can, hey, let us know. Let us know. There’s comments for that. Yeah. All right, let’s get to the next one. There’s fast food and then there’s fast food. The next episode we’re gonna show you is about the latter, or is it the former? I don’t, I don’t know. Well, this is, Which Food Is The Fastest from April 22nd, 2021. – What’s the fastest food in the world? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good mythical morning. – Today we’re racing foods to finally find out which is truly the fastest. – Yeah we are. – All right, now when we were kids, our Memaws used to tell us “don’t you play with your food,” but Memaw didn’t say anything about racing your food. Yes, the rumors are true. A mythical speed slope has been created and today is the day we get supersonic with some real fast food. It’s time for forget horsepower and gas guzzling atrocities. Let’s see what foods can reach maximum velocities. – Welcome to the so food so furious zone. – And this is the mythical speed slope. Whew, this is quite a contraption we have here, and we’re going to be competing against each other in a series of races, except instead of racing cars, we’re going to be racing various food items. – Oh, now I get it. – That is what we need to do. – Now as you can see, we have a selection of food to draft a team of food from, with the help of a one man pit crew, Chase. Welcome Chase. – Thanks, I’m a pit crew. – [Link] He has a multi-tool in his pocket. – Now listen, here’s the thing. Scientifically speaking, every food has a different inherent speed, y’all. Did you know that? We gotta be wise when we put together this snack squad, but Chase, I see there are two different items right there in front of you. What’s happening there? – So you can also choose an advantage on your team. You can put something into the shopping cart and race that. – Looks fast. – And a disadvantage, you can slather peanut butter on your opponent’s course. – Nice. – Thought you were gonna say face. – Or just eat it. Well, there’s lots options there. I’ll let you pick first. Go ahead. – I’m going to choose the Jawbreaker. – I was hoping you wouldn’t see the Jawbreaker hiding behind the orange, which I will choose the orange. – I’m going to choose the onion. – Well, my friend, I am going to choose the cart advantage, because that’s gotta be a winner. Put a burrito in there, I don’t know. – I’m going to choose the coconut. – Oh, Chase, is that a walnut in front of that? – That is a meatball. – [Rhett] It’s a meatball. – Oh, that is a meatball? I’m gonna go for grapes. – All right. – I assume I’m just gonna roll one grape. – A grape, yeah. Well I’m doing the meatball then. – It is round. See if that corn stays aligned, shoot. I’m going for the tater. – Alright. – That’s heavy, dense. – I’m gonna choose a single popcorn kernel. What about the pineapple in that cart? That’s not going to lose. – [Link] That’s crazy. – The weight of that. I’d just love to watch that. I’d love to see it happen. – All right, I’ll go with the pineapple. – Hey! And I guess I’ll go with the peanut butter. – That burrito would strow all over the place. Is that a word that people use outside of my county where I grew up? – Strow? – You strowed a mess everywhere in here. – With you and your relationship with corn though, you know how when you eat it and you don’t even know you’re eating it? – Yeah. – You can’t even remember it. – [Link] So the corn on the cob is separate from the kernel? – That is true. – I do think that we’ll roll. Corn on the cob. (laughs) I think you’re becoming a cheater. – I love how you just take all this advice without question. – No, I’ve questioned it, but I agree with it. – Okay, so we have our teams. Now points escalate every heat. Whoever wins overall gets to be the cocky food jockey in “Good Mythical More,” where the loser has to be the slow and sorry snail. (upbeat music) – Okay, before this and each heat, we’re each gonna have to pick the runner that we want to race. – And we’re doing it blindly, because we’re doing it at the same time. I can’t know what you’re going to do. So Stevie, you’re gonna give us a countdown. We’re going to select the item in the first heat. – That’s an interesting strategy here. I mean, you got a lot more round stuff. I don’t know exactly how that happened. – Well, it’s because I told you to get pineapple and corn and you just did it. – Well, by that point, there weren’t any more round stuff, but I have this cart. – [Stevie] All right, you’re going to stab your first racers. – You don’t want to go too big too early, unless the other guy goes a really big really early. – Don’t overthink it, man. – [Stevie] Three, two, one, stab. – Tater versus the corn kernel. Alright, let’s load them up. You may not be able to see this, but Rhett has picked apparently his most pristine corn kernel. – It’s a good kernel. – And I have my tater in its maximum potential energy position. – Now we each have a lever here that we can stomp on to release, but it releases the whole thing at the same time. So we’ll just alternate. You can go first. – Alright. And you’re ready to lose round one. – I think that the potato has a better chance of doing this unless it gets hung up on the side. – Unless it goes funk. – Yeah, it’s definitely heavier, so, I mean, I don’t know how gravity works. I think everything goes at the same speed, but there’s friction involved. – Here we go, three, two, one. (clunking) Why don’t you give it a shot, Rhett? I’ll go next round. – Okay. Three, two, one. (laughing) – You won, my tater went off the course. – But also, it wasn’t as fast. – It wasn’t as fast. – [Rhett] It wasn’t as fast, man. – [Link] Can we see a replay? How close was this? If it would have stayed on the course, I think I would have lost anyway. – Okay, so I get one point. – Tater out of control, man. (upbeat music) Now the strategy of this choice is tough, man. – Escalated points, man. Those later rounds, save it. – I really needed to win with that potato. – Well, it’s just a point. I mean, you can cancel that out easy. – [Stevie] Okay, here we go. Three, two, one, stab. (Link whines) – [Rhett] Meatball versus corn? – Yes. – [Stevie] And do you guys want to use any of your advantages or disadvantages? – Not yet, nope. – You might want a shopping cart for that corn. – This is gonna run. I’m not going to waste my shopping cart. – Okay. All right, corn versus meatball. Anything can happen, but most likely the meatball’s gonna win. – I know that one end of the cob is bigger than the other, so it might do another thunk and go over. – But you’ve had it universal sort of cosmic relationship with corn. So maybe we can, you can will something here. – All right, I’m going more aggressive this time. Three, two, one. Come on, corn! Hold on, corn, corn’s still thinking about it. Corn’s still thinking about it. Go on, corn, go on, corn, get out of here. Get out of here, corn, come on, don’t embarrass me like this, finish the race, man. – Yeah, encourage it. – You obviously lost, but we don’t give up. (Rhett laughs) We give up twice. – Hey man, you know what, points escalate. (laughs) – It doesn’t want to participate. – I don’t know if that counts, but okay. All right. – Okay. All right. (upbeat music) You’ve got three hefty round things. I’m going back to when I picked stuff and it didn’t seem this dark. – Yeah, yeah, corn and potato so far. – All right. – [Stevie] Ready? – I’m ready. – [Stevie] Okay. Here we go. – You know, points escalate. That’s what I’m banking on. – Yeah, right, yup. – [Stevie] Three, two, one, stab. – [Link] Grapes versus gumball. – [Stevie] Reminder. – Could be interesting. – [Stevie] You have your advantages and disadvantages that you could use. – I’m saving it. I mean, I have to save it for the pineapple, because I’ve learned from that corn on the cob that this pineapple is not gonna go. – I mean, here’s all I can say about this is I think that the Jawbreaker is probably my best item. I thought you were going to do orange. And so I was going to kind of counteract that with what I think is probably the fastest item in the whole game. I mean, it’s a perfect sphere, man. – Let’s load them up. – Okay Link, you’ve selected a very round grape. – I’m doing the best I can. But I actually think that this Jawbreaker is probably the fastest thing according to testing. – I mean, how could it not be? I mean, it’s, I mean it’s so hard. – It’s heavy, it’s perfectly round. – Yeah, I mean, but hey, but it’s not a grape. – All right, stop it. – Three, two, one. (chute clunks) – Oh, it’s close! – Oh, hey, that was close, man. – That was respectable. – That was close. – And that’s all I’m looking for at this point, just a little modicum of respect. – Yeah, that was a fast grape, but not quite fast enough. – Still a shutout. (upbeat music) – [Stevie] Okay gentlemen, so the Jawbreaker was officially the fastest food item, but things are about to get a little bit more interesting because in front of you are flippers, an obstacle, and a little bit more interesting because Link, you’ve got to win this heat in order to be able to stay in the race. – I feel like I’ve got a good shot. – I feel like you got a good shot too with your items. You’ve got the cart, got the orange. This is not over by a long shot. – [Stevie] You ready to pick? – Yeah. – [Stevie] Three, two, one, stab. – I got to go for the gusto, which is my pineapple in my shopping cart. I’m going to have to figure out a way to make it go in here. Yeah. That’s my choice. – Okay. – Get in there! I mean that, that looks like, this is going to be like a bat out of hell. – I mean, that’s like a rocket ship. – [Link] Feeling good about this. – All right, you’re doing nothing but losing juice. So whenever you’re ready, you can release the hounds. – You’re not feeling good, are you? – No, I think you got me on this round. – I mean, the cart may go all over the place though. Three, two, one, go. (clattering) Yes! Boom! (Rhett laughs) Yeah, I obliterated you, man. – That was fast, that may be faster than the Jawbreaker. – I’m still in this! (upbeat music) Okay, so we know that it’s orange versus onion. It’s just a question of are you going to use that peanut butter? – Oh yeah, I’ve got a peanut butter plan, man. – Okay, the only thing you missed in that cut was Rhett grunting and talking to himself while smearing peanut butter on my side of the board. – Here’s my strategy. I’m hoping that you’re going to hit this and basically pick up as much peanut butter as possible. And then a little bit more here, and when you run into the ticker tape, it’s going to stick and it’s going to be this orange is going to have ticker-tape over it. Now you may be wondering why did I only choose one spot at the end? Because just like a keeper, not a goalie. What side of the ocean are you on? It’s called a keeper. The keeper has to make a choice in the penalty time. You just got to make a choice. You got to anticipate. I’m anticipating your orange is gonna go right there. – You’re making a blind choice because you’re very threatened, right now. – Oh, I believe I have about a 15% chance of winning, just given all the circumstances at play. – I believe I have a 15% chance of getting this thing open on the first try. Okay. All right, here we go. Three, two, one. (clattering) For the win, no! – It worked, look at the stripes! I told you right too, the peanut butter sabotaged you, man. – That made the difference, didn’t it? Wasn’t it that? – Yeah, it totally was stuck. – [Link] If it wasn’t for this. – [Rhett] It slowed it down. – Daggum dollop, I would have won. – Woo, yes! – It came down to the dollop. – The peanut butter got it, but you gotta admit, it’s pretty cool that it’s still, look, I chose exactly perfectly and still hit it. – Yeah, I admit that’s pretty cool, man. What you did was pretty cool, man. Do you want that to be a prize, me admitting that what you did was cool? – No, I just want you to be this slow and sorry snail in “Good Mythical More” and I’ll be the cocky food jockey. – Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – You know what time it is. Wow, I had so much fun. That was such a stupid episode. I love that one. I hate that. Do that again. It was just dumb. I mean, we don’t. I think it was smart. We’re not dumb, here. Are, we don’t do dumb stuff. That was just, you know what? We should have never have done it. I think we should do it again and again and again. I think we should find all of the food, the foods that can be fast. Uh. I’m not gonna be a sore loser. I’ll do it again. I just had the, a grand ole time dominating you. Um, you know, it wasn’t me Link, it was the foods. I wanna give all my credit to the foods. It had nothing to do with the man who made all of the choices about the foods. It had to do with the foods themselves. The foods really showed up. It’s like, it’s like a jockey in a, on a horse, you know? Uh, the jockeys like to take a lot of credit, but it really is the horse racing. I mean, when the jock, the jockey’s just on the horse. Right. Speaking of Kentucky. Yes. Okay. Yeah, yeah, just transition right along. No one can KFC better than Kentucky, right. Wrong. Oh, well, let’s find out what he means by that. This is International KFC Taste Test from April 2nd, 2019. – Today we KFC the world. – Let’s talk about that. (funky electronic music) Good Mythical Morning. – We wanted to let you know that the shirt that I am wearing is the latest Mythical Society exclusive perk only sent to third tier members and if you don’t think it looks extremely Mythical, well, watch this. – Ha. – See, as soon as the sun hits it, you can tell I’m a member of the Mythical Society. Oh, look at that. – Yeah, it’s already changing back. Super cool, you’ll only be getting this amazing solar powered tee if you’re signed up for the third degree of the Mythical Society. MythicalSociety.com. – But now let’s talk about chicken. Chicken is like music to my mouth and music is the language of love and therefore, chicken is the language of love. I chicken you, Link. – I chicken you too, Rhett. That actually makes it easier. – Exactly. – KFC has built an entire empire of chicken restaurants in over 120 countries around the world and according to KFC’s website, KFC menus around the globe feature items unknown in the United States. Well, that sounds like a challenge to me. – Sure does, it’s time for– ♪ Where in the world do these ♪ ♪ International KFC dishes come from? ♪ – We’re gonna be served a non-U.S. dish served at a non-U.S. KFC, we’re gonna taste it and we’re gonna indicate our guess of what country it’s from by hurling a dart at our worldwide map of KFCs. Now some of these items are served in more than one country but it’s our job to guess where it originated. – Yeah so and as per usual, we will measure the distance between our darts and the bullseye of the correct country and the lower the score, the better. Now, Link, traditionally, you lost this game a lot but you actually won last time. – I did. – But because you’ve lost more than you’ve won, we’re still going to give you a cheat. This time, you win this time, you don’t get any more cheats. – Okay. – We’re giving you what we’re calling the 11 darts and spices. (chuckles) – All right so I’m gonna– – You get to throw 11 darts at any round of your choice and you’re gonna pick your best dart. – I don’t know if that’s an advantage. Whoever has the shortest distance, AKA the lowest score at the end gets to perform a drumstick solo using chicken drumsticks in Good Mythical More. – Okay. – Let’s eat. ♪ Mm bah mm bah bah bah bah bah ♪ – What do we have here? – Boxed chicken. – Oh my gosh. – We got a chicken hot dog, boys. (chuckles) With cheese on it. – Yeah, let’s forget the game and just eat. Dink it, sink it. – Oh oh oh oh. You gotta be careful, your wiener just pops right out of there. – Mm, okay that’s good, mm. Since I won last time– – It’s almost too good. – I’m gonna give you the advantage in round one by allowing you to go second, okay? – [Rhett] Okay. Let’s see. – I’m hungry. – Who originated this amazing idea? It’s a very savory, you know what– – Yeah. – When you go to a Brazilian churrascaria– – Yeah one of those. I also call them Brazilian steakhouse. – They’re meat crazy– – They bring all kinds of meat. – They love meat there. They’re like shaving it off all types of spits and spigots– – You’re right. – And blades and stuff. – You’re right. – So. – Can’t deny that. – I just feel like this is happening in Brazil. Ooh that’s close. – Okay, very close. – What do you think, you think this is Brazil? – No, I’m going off the knowledge that I learned last time when we ate that amazing spaghetti dish that had hot dogs in it and I said that it was from Canada and then it turned out it was from the Philippines, so I’m gonna go with the wiener connection to Philippines. – The wiener connection. – Boy if I’m wrong, you’re really pulling ahead, ho ho. – Go for it, Philip. – Never done this with a jacket on. Gotta get that– – Really? – [Rhett] Whoa ho ho ho! – [Link] You almost hit the Philippines! – I’m gonna have to wear a jacket from now on. – Oh I hope that’s the wrong answer, Stevie? – [Stevie] Okay you guys just ate the double down dog, a hot dog between a single fried chicken filet which was released for a limited time in 2015 in the Philippines. (Rhett laughs excitedly) – Whoa, wiener time, yes! – Oh, man. I didn’t even remember that wiener connection. – Yeah that was the only thing I was going on was the fact that there’s hot dogs in the spaghetti in the Philippines. – Well I hate it. – Link, you had 52. Rhett, you had 2. – Okay, okay. – How many I have? – Two. – Two. ♪ Mm bah mm bah bah bah bah bah ♪ – Some sort of sandwich here. It’s square-shaped. – Oh oh oh! – What on– – This is like a Frisco burger back in the day from Carl’s Jr., Hardee’s. But it’s chicken. – I would say it’s a grilled cheese with fried chicken in the middle. – Well you could say that, ’cause it’s sourdough. – Is there also, is there onions in there? Yes. – Oh with grilled onions on the bottom,, oh my goodness. We’ve been missing out, man. – Wowser, 11 herbs and change my life forever. – That is legitimately– – Smart. – Better than anything I’ve actually eaten at KFC. – Well you need to travel somewhere. – Having recently been to the United Kingdom, I feel like they’re into square sandwiches, I don’t know. – Yeah everything on there is white. Just like all the food we ate there was white and brown. – I feel like Canada could be a candidate for this but I don’t know, it’s sort of a safer throw to go for the United Kingdom ’cause it’s right in the middle of the map. So I’m going for the U.K. – Oh, you went a little high but here’s the thing. This is an ambitious sandwich. It’s got all this fun is just thrown into it, because I consider onions as very fun. And that made me think Japan because when you go to Tokyo it’s like, you’re just getting hit in the same– – What! (electronic music) (Rhett continues yelling) – With flashing lights and signage and cheese and onions and bread and fried chicken! – Yeah. – But I mean you’ve already pulled so far ahead. I can’t go for the gusto of that far on that side of the board. – Well because I have pulled so far ahead, you might need to go real hard, real decisive. – My gut says Japan but– – Follow your gut, man. – I’m not gonna listen to you. I’m gonna split the difference and go for the D in United Kingdom. – Oh okay. – So Russia. Well, a little low. Maybe it’s Saudi Arabia, come on. – It could be. – Chicken gods, help me. – [Stevie] Okay this is the Colonel Grilled Cheese Sandwich that features a chicken filet, French mozzarella and cheddar fondue along with caramelized onions and it’s sold in KFC in France. – France. – France, well, conveniently, right next to the United Kingdom. – You lucky dog. I’m glad I hedged my bets. Chase? – You’re pretty close. – Rhett had 10, Link had 11. – Oh. – Wow. That was– – Not too bad, Link. But just a little bit worse. ♪ Mm bah mm bah bah bah bah bah ♪ – Unwrap another gift from the Kentucky– – Now this is a circular sandwich. – Okay so– – Holy what? Sesame seed bun. Hash brown, cranberry. – Cheese, lettuce, mayo. – [Rhett] Cranberry hash browns and chicken? – It’s got a potatoey sweetness. This is good. – It tastes like Thanksgiving. – Rhett, you gotta throw first. – Where do they celebrate Thanksgiving at KFC that’s not the United States? Okay here’s my reasoning. I’m going to choose Japan, here’s why. I have this feeling that Japan likes to take some things from other countries and then bring it into a sandwich and be able to say something like you can get the USA Thanksgiving sandwich here in Japan. – Mm-hmm. – And then this is what it is and it is good, it’s fine. But as someone who has actually experienced Thanksgiving, I could say that that thing from France is a lot better. – I actually really like this. – I’m going for Japan. Okay, little high, little right. – I like the fact that your dart is so far over there ’cause I need everything I can get. – I’ve opened the door for you, Link. – Back in the game. Because the potatoes on it, I was actually thinking Canada ’cause of their whole poutine situation. – They do have a poutine situation. – They put stuff on potatoes, why not put potatoes on stuff? (sighs) – Well if you’re right, you might pull ahead. – This is a wild card. I do agree that this is like throwing a bunch of American stuff. I just don’t know. So I’m going for, I think it could be Zimbabwe. (Rhett chuckles) – It might be, I don’t know, haven’t been there. – But I’m aiming for Saudi Arabia. In the right middle of the board. – In the middle of the Sahara. – So I’m playing a defensive game today. Stevie? – [Stevie] Okay this is the Colonel’s Christmas Burger. – Christmas? – [Stevie] Made with an original recipe filet, a hash brown, cheese, lettuce, cranberry sauce, and sage and onion stuffing mayonnaise and it’s sold around the holidays in the U.K. – [Rhett and Link] Oh. – Am I catching up? – Yeah you just– – The U.K.? – You just made up some ground, Neal. – All right Rhett, you had 50. Link, you had 12. – Oh wow, Link. – Back in it. ♪ Mm bah mm bah bah bah bah bah ♪ – Another round sandwich. – Yeah speaking of Christmas. Okay so right here we have chicken sandwich with corn and… – Corn and mayonnaise. – I guess that’s just mayonnaise but the corn is so sweet I can’t tell. Mm, that’s good. It’s weird but good. – It is good. It’s unexpectedly good. – The vegetables that KFC’s putting all stuff around the world, onions and corn, I’m a fan. – Mm. – Wouldn’t you say? – Oh yeah, it’s great. – [Rhett] Brazil’s the corn capital of the world. – Is it? – Yeah. There’s two ears of corn for every person. – I’ve heard that Brazil is the corn capital of the world. – Mm-hmm. – So I’m guessing China. – [Rhett] Mm. – And I’ve hit China. – No. – [Link] Nope I’m a little off of it. – Okay. – What are you thinking? You know that Brazil is the corn capital of the world. – Yeah it is. Something about corn in this form says Indonesia to me. – You’re thinking Canada huh? – No I’m thinking Indonesia. It would be a cheat to consult Davin. But I’m gonna just look at his face. He gave me the. Okay, I feel Indonesia. Oh– – Oh gosh. – Almost Japan. – We are very close here. – I’m up and to the right a lot today. – I’m okay with that throw. – [Stevie] Okay you guys just ate the Creamed Corn Chicken Sandwich featuring a crispy fried boneless chicken thigh, topped with creamed corn, made with Philadelphia Cream Cheese on a sesame bun and it’s sold in Brazil. – Oh ho ho ho! – Oh! So that’s not mayo. I knew that wasn’t mayo and then you said mayo. It’s cream cheese! – Brazil isn’t the corn capital of the world but, man I should have listened to my lie. (laughs) If I could just get myself to listen to my own lies. – Link, you had 58. Rhett, you had 56. – Oh okay, pulling away just a little bit. ♪ Mm bah mm bah bah bah bah bah ♪ – 15 centimeters separates the leaders. (Rhett gasps) And we have a chicken pizza y’all. (laughs) Look at that. – Oh my goodness. Look, it is a, how, there’s no chicken with a breast that big. – [Link] Well they pound it out, you know. – Is this a Franken-breast? – This is like a chicken parm, dink it. Sink it, and it’s got pineapples on it so it’s internet controversial. – It’s like the Italian chicken sandwich that they bring to Burger King sometimes. – It’s a chicken parm type situation. – Yeah it’s like the chicken parm we had in Australia. – Mm-hmm. – That was a little bit thicker and wasn’t so covered. – Now am I going first or you? – You’re going first, my friend. – Okay well I do have my 11 darts and spices which turns out there’d just be mostly dart, not any spices. – I think there’s a dusting in there. I’ve been told there’s a dusting. – Okay. – Chase is wisely moving over here. – See, I don’t know if 11 darts is actually– – Oh yeah it is. – That much of an advantage. – You wanna give it to me? (chuckles) I’ll take it. – I’m torn between Canada and Saudi Arabia. I think I keep Saudi Arabia ’cause it’s in the middle of the board and my eyes just kinda look in the middle of things. – Right. That’s always smart. – I mean I’m gonna try to spray the entire board from Saudi Arabia to Canada. – [Rhett] Please just spray the board. – I have no real clue where this is. Go. – I’m confident. (darts whacking) – [Link] Oh right there in the middle, I got six. Oh there’s two down there, look at that. – [Rhett] Look what you did to the Colonel. – [Link] I got a east and a west. – I almost feel like you should get points for that. Okay, I know just a second ago I said things about corn and Indonesia but now I’m gonna say things about pizza and Indonesia. Again, I don’t know what it is but every single time I see something that feels like super inventive, like oh why didn’t we think of that? It seems to come from that part of the world. Well you know what, I’m just gonna aim at China and hope that it’s either China, Japan or Indonesia. – To the west of it, I mean the east of it. – Okay here we go. Good safe bet, now you could definitely have me beat if it’s anything to the west. – [Stevie] Okay, that was Chizza. A chicken-based pizza with chicken, ham, pineapple chunks and KFC’s signature cheese sauce. This was first introduced in Japan. – Oh oh ho! – Aw! Japan! – Woo! – Bite me in the butt. – And it’s since made its way to Singapore, India, Malaysia and more. – And Saudi Arabia and Canada probably. – Yeah eventually they’ll get to all the places that you hit, Link, including the Colonel’s face. (chuckles) – Dang, I was way to the wrong spot. Well– – Link, you had 33. And Rhett, you had 14. – Well congratulations Rhett, you’ve done it but we’re all winners here because of what we’ve already eaten and will continue to eat and you get to play a drumstick solo in Good Mythical More. – Yes I do, thank you for liking, commenting and subscribing. – You know what time it is. I haven’t been to France. Since. Since this. Uh, since we filmed this. So you got but you don’t, this reminds you, you might need to go back. You think they still got it? You think they still this many years later they got the colonel grilled cheese sandwich? Probably not. Maybe so, if it was that amazing. I missed my chance to go to France and eat KFC. That’s really what has happened here, it’s a travesty. Well, as of the recording of this, I’m preparing to do something which is celebrate the New Year in Japan. You mean you’re not here right now when we’re filming this? Nope. And you know what I’m eating. Well, I hope you’re eating. Oh, you know what, I’m getting it confused. Cheeza. I really haven’t looked at my itinerary closely enough. My Christmas meal in Japan is KFC because that’s the tradition. You’re really doing that. I’m doing that. So you will have had Cheeza. No, I’m just gonna get KFC, I’m not getting that. Hold on. Cheeza. I’m not getting that. Hold on, but why you need to get it. I didn’t see it on the menu. ’cause we pre-ordered. You pre-ordered? Yeah, and you wait. You wait in line because everybody does it. You still got time to change it in this version of us. Yeah, but. Your wife didn’t get Cheeza? I don’t think it was on the menu. Okay. But the menu was in Japanese. Because she loves pizza. It’s hard to read. Well, okay. I hope you’re having a great time. I am. I’m jealous, I wanted to go. I’ll tell y’all. You didn’t ask. Eventually. Alright, there’s fast food and then there’s fast food, and then there’s food that is made very fast. This is What Tiny Food Is This from March 3rd, 2021. – Fe fi fo fum. – Who can guess food that’s the size of a thumb? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) – Good mythical morning. – Whoever said bigger is better has never watched tiny food being prepared on the internet. – Or been separated from your mom at the mall. – Whether you’ve seen tiny food cooking videos before or not today is gonna be splendid because watching tiny food cooking videos is always splendid. – Dare I say delightful and impressive, but it’s easy to get distracted from the food by all the cuteness around it. Like how did they get those knives so little and how do those tiny food chefs keep their cuticle so fresh? – Well, you better keep your focus on the little bitty of food, Link, because it’s time for Mystery Countdown Theater, tiny food edition. – Today we’re guessing what tiny delectable dishes are being prepared by our new friends at Miniature Cusina. Be sure to check out all of their amazing tiny creations on their YouTube channel, Miniature Cusina, and follow them on Instagram and Facebook @MiniatureCusina. – We’re gonna be watching some of their tiny cooking clips and the first person to buzz in and guess what the adorable little food they’re making is wins points. And if we guess correctly, we get however many points are left on the timer, and if you’re wrong, the other guy gets chance to buzz in and guess. – Yes, it is the most competitive game in “Good Mythical Morning” history. – Yeah, that’s the name of the show, morning. – The ultimate loser has to play a time-lapse game of this little piggy with the winner’s toes in “Good Mythical More,” and now look, last time you won while wearing my lucky shirt, which you stole from me. And then by the way, you never give it back. So I’ve taken all that into account and I’m ready. – What’s happening there? – This is a shirt with you on it wearing my lucky shirt that you never gave back to me, which makes this shirt the lucky shirt. – You know, I thought that you might do this. I anticipated this. So I’ve got on a shirt that’s got you wearing a shirt with me wearing your lucky shirt on it. – I don’t even know. I’ve never worn this shirt, so how do you have? – Hey, listen, I’ve known you for a long time. – I’m gonna take this jacket off. – I’ve know you for a long time. – I know I’m gonna be sweating. – I know what your next move is. – Fine, fine, fine! Let’s see the first clip. Oh, tiny. – [Rhett] Okay, well. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Link? – Tiny, tiny sandwiches, finger sandwiches. – [Stevie] Incorrect. – [Link] Oh my, look at this. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett? – I’m gonna say that it is gonna be, I see that it’s gonna be some bacon, so I think it’s just tiny breakfast. You got toast and bacon are at least two of the ingredients. – [Stevie] You’re correct. (Link mouth farts) – [Link] Look at that little skillet, man. Where do they, where is this stuff acquired? You know, all American breakfast right there. – I’ve never seen any of this. I mean, it totally makes sense that it exists, but I– – Then how’d you know it was so delightful? – Just because I wanted them to believe. (laughs) – [Stevie] It looks like tiny versions of you are standing at the little podiums because it aligns so perfectly. And the black shirt especially, it’s like fading into the background. – It fits the theme. – [Stevie] Yeah. – Yeah, I anticipated all this. – So yeah, just frame, just frame it right here. – And ultimately what I’m saying is I anticipated that I would like a little food videos. That’s why I said it. – Okay. Okay, lots of veggies. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett. – I’m gonna say that it is going to be a spaghetti. – [Stevie] You’re correct. (Link groans) – [Link] Spaghetti sauce, see like knowing ingredients and how they make foods is helpful. – [Rhett] It is helpful. – Crazy. Now they did, they did that thing where they make the sauce and then they make the noodles and they mix it all together like their school lunch ladies did. – You like it that way? – I like it like that. – You remember in October what it was called? – Spooky-etti? – Scary spaghetti. No, it’s called scary spaghetti. And my mom would be like, “they’re having scary spaghetti today.” – You’re trying to cheer me up because you’re– – I took an early lead. – [Stevie] Wait, why was it scary spaghetti? What’d they do differently? – It was Halloween. – [Stevie] But it was the same spaghetti? – Yeah. – Exactly the same. – [Stevie] Oh, okay. – They just might have poison in it. – Okay, I’ve got to pull some powers together, some culinary powers into my brain. (bell dings) You’re going? – [Stevie] Rhett? – I think that this is a sandwich. – [Stevie] I can’t accept that, I’m sorry. – It’s gotta be more specific than that. – [Rhett] Oh, I know what it is now. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Link? – Miniature hamburger. – Yes. – Cheeseburger. – [Stevie] Yeah, I’ll give it to you, but can you guess? – Double cheeseburger. – [Stevie] Well, no, nevermind, let’s just watch it. – Big Mac. – [Rhett] That is so crazy. So, look, the little onions. Oh, okay. – [Link] A McDonald’s mini– – [Rhett] Cheeseburger meal. – I was supposed to guess McDonald’s mini burger? – [Stevie] I don’t know, I just wanted to see what you were gonna guess. – The old minu-burger. – You know, this makes me miss Terry Crews. Remember when he came by and we had all that tiny food? – He’s a big man, tiny food. – Yeah, we actually experienced this. All right, so I just made up, I made up a little bit of roundage here. I don’t even know what that is. Everything starts out looking the same. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett? – I believe that this is gonna be a Chinese food dish. – A Chinese food. – [Stevie] I need you to be more specific. – I’m gonna go with beef and broccoli. – [Stevie] Well, dang, that’s right. (Rhett laughs) – Dang it. Because it was broccoli, and then what, you saw beef? – The very last thing was the beef that went into the pot. – How did you know it was a Chinese food? – Well, because it was broccoli and meat and it was gonna be sauteed in a wok thing. – Oh yeah, the wok. Are you frustrated by this? I mean, as cute as it is– – I’m winning. (laughs) – But like, if you think about the proportions. – Eating it would be. – That would make you extremely frustrated to only, I mean, you could eat that plate of broccoli beef, including the plate all in one bite in the way that you consume things. – But if you went on a tiny food diet, you might die. – Yeah. – But you would lose a lot of weight before you died, (laughs) you know? (crew laughs) – [Stevie] Sweet. – All right, before we do the next one, we want to remind you this is the last month to be eligible to receive the Mythical Snackiverse lunch box in Thermos set over there on the wall. This thing is metal. It’s amazing. It would be great on your shelf or to carry your miniature lunch or normal size lunch. You gotta join third degree quarterly or annual plan by March 31st to be eligible. MythicalSociety.com for details. – All right. – It ain’t over. – Alright. Come on, foods. (bell dings) Okay, so this is a shrimp cocktail. – [Stevie] Can’t give it to you, I’m sorry. – Well can I be more specific? – [Stevie] No, that was just wrong. – Okay. – [Rhett] They are shrimps, that’s for sure. Okay, I see some, okay. – You ain’t gonna get mini– (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett. – I’m going with fried shrimp. – [Stevie] Devin? – [Devin] Can you be more specific? – Can you be more specific? Yeah, you got to be really specific. – Surf and turf? – [Stevie] Oh gosh, I’m gonna hear it in the comments, but I can’t, I can’t give it to you, I’m sorry. Link. – Shrimp scampi. – [Stevie] No, no. – That’s a guess, all right. All right, now I’m gonna let this one sit a little bit because if we don’t know what it is. Okay, they’re frying the shrimp. Now what are you gonna do with the shrimp? – [Stevie] What’s that called? – Oh, shrimp tempura? – [Stevie] Yes. – Oh gosh. – [Link] So fried shrimp. – [Stevie] Look at those tiny, tiny, tiny shrimp. Like what? – [Link] Look at the shrimp. – [Rhett] Is that sea monkeys? – [Stevie] I, no, it’s too big to be sea monkeys. You know how they have the dried? – Sea monkeys, if you keep sea monkeys around, which no kid does. – It’s krill. – Okay. Well, all right. – Okay. Okay. I’m not gonna be discouraged. – [Rhett] That’s actually kind of big. – [Link] Oh gosh, this is– (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett? – Lettuce wraps. – [Stevie] Yeah, this was hard. – Yeah, you had to wait until the very end. – Did you, what, did you get two points for that? Or one point? – [Rhett] Just two. – You know what I don’t like? – Lettuce wraps. – I don’t like lettuce wraps. Like we had lettuce wraps last week and I just ended up like– – You mean at your house? – Yeah. – Did you tell your wife you didn’t like them? Or did you smile? – No, I ate it all. I didn’t say a word. – You think she doesn’t watch the show? – Well, here’s the thing. It changes from just being lettuce wraps to just being like lettuce pieces with the stuff on top of it on a plate and I just eat it with a fork. = That’s where you’re wrong. – I think it’s that– – You have to commit to the lettuce burrito, the lettuce taco. – Our lettuce, it’s like that white thing in the middle was so strong. – Oh, you got the wrong lettuce. – Getting the wrong lettuce or something. – You got to get, what is that lettuce called? Stevie’s the lettuce expert. – [Stevie] Well, it sounds like you’re eating romaine, which would be the choice, I would think. – No, I think it’s like bibb. – [Stevie] Bibb is, yeah, bibb is in there. Yeah, because like a butter lettuce, you know, it’s just too floppy. You can’t, you can’t use a butter lettuce. You want to talk more about lettuces? – Yeah. – No, let’s. – Let us do that. – Oh man. – Let us continue. (bell dings) – Okay. I have to go aggressive here– – That’s true, that’s a good call. – With pizza. – That might be it. – [Stevie] I’m gonna give it to you. – How many points did I get? – [Both] Nine. – [Rhett] Okay, see man? It’s anybody’s game. – [Link] Woo, look at that going in, going in that little oven. What kind of sauce is that, apricot sauce? – [Rhett] This is a strange pizza, but it is a pizza. – [Link] Ham and cheese pizza. – [Rhett] You just got, that was the biggest round of the whole game. – Yes. – [Stevie] When they bring out those like– – It ain’t over. – [Stevie] Those tweezers, what do call those tweezers that have like the dip at the end? The like really tiny tweezers that they bring out. I don’t know if there’s a specific name. You know what I’m talking about? When he picked up the pieces of the cheese, he uses those tweezers. – Teeny tweezers. – Little pluckers. – [Stevie] That’s how small these little things are. That’s crazy to me. – My fine motor skills are compromised in a way that would make me incapable of making this food. – Fine motor skills. – Here we go. – [Link] A lot of onion action happening here. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett. – It’s squid. It’s fried squid. – [Stevie] Oh, I can’t give it to you. But I was, I agree with you, but no. – And what is it, ’cause that is squid. What? – Oh, he’s using. Okay. – I buzzed in at zero. – They’re using squid to make octopus. – [Stevie] I thought that too, but Devin said no because, okay, so think about. – Zero points. – [Stevie] You know those little squid pieces. They’re much, they’re like the size of that entire freaking bowl. So these are like super freaking tiny. – [Rhett] They’re baby octopi? – [Stevie] I guess, I tried to Google it, but look, I mean, they’re so tiny. It’s like half of one of his nails. – Octopus don’t get smart until they get bigger, right? – They’re not born geniuses, no. – Okay, good. – Nobody is. – Oh gosh, it’s all coming down to the end here. (Link groans) (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett. – Why am I always that far behind you? – I think this is gonna be French toast. – [Stevie] Incorrect. (bell dings) – Bread pudding. – [Stevie] Correct! – Dang. – [Link] And it’s tied up. Yeah, because all the pieces of bread, you know, there’s no way that would have been a French toast. – Okay, this is tied up going into the final round. – Come on, come on, come on. – Oh, this is difficult to know how to play because if you get it wrong, lucky guess. (grumbles) (bell dings) – [Stevie] Rhett. – Dumplings. – [Stevie] Incorrect. – Dang it! I lost. – [Link] Well then what the heck is it? – [Rhett] Well don’t just wait until it gets down to one, man. Come on, don’t do that. (bell dings) – [Stevie] Link. – Chicken noodle soup. – [Stevie] Correct. – Oh, I didn’t really know if that’s what it was. Oh man, did I just win at the last second? – You did, man. That was a comeback for the ages. – I don’t even know how to react. – [Stevie] Mini Rhett on your shirt looks very, very disappointed. – Yeah, and mini Rhett here is very disappointed. And big Rhett is disappointed as well. – You know what? – That means that, no, that happens in ‘Good Mythical More,” I’m not doing it now. (laughs) That’s what we said. – I’m getting ready though. – I’m gonna play little piggy, what it is, this little piggy with Link’s toes in “Good Mythical More.” All right, thanks to Miniature Cusina for letting us play a game with their videos. Make sure to check them out and support all their amazing tiny culinary creations on their channel, Facebook, and Instagram @MiniatureCusina. – And thank you for subscribing and clicking that bell. – You know what time it is. You gotta love it when a mystery countdown theater comes down to the wire and then I win. Oh yeah, I, you don’t have to love it and let, if I didn’t win, I don’t love it. I, I mean, this is the most competitive game in, in Good Mythical Morning. It’s just great when it comes down to the wire. It is great. No matter who wins it. Great. But especially if I win. You know what I was thinking? What? Booty booty booty booty hikin’ everywhere. Booty booty booty booty hikin’ everywhere. Booty booty booty booty hikin’ everywhere. That’s what I was thinking. This is, Which State Is This Fast Food From? From September 20th, 2023. – Where was your favorite fast food born? – Let’s talk about that. (ethereal music) Good Mythical Morning. – We’re about to test our knowledge of which states iconic fast food change started in. Now, fast food. It had to come from somewhere. It had to be born somewhere. – Uh-huh. – Let’s try to figure out where it was born. It’s time for “Hut! Hut! Bite! Fast Food Birthplace Edition.” – Welcome back to the Booty Booty Booty Hiking Everywhere Stadium, home to the Mythical rings. – Man, look at those rings. Stevie, What’s new? – [Stevie] So we’re doing things a little bit differently this time around. Instead of trying famous dishes from sports stadiums, you’re gonna be eating from famous fast food establishments. – Good. – [Stevie] You’ll be presented with a meal from a variety of iconic restaurants, and you’ll each have three chances to hike a football to the state you think it was founded in. – Yeah. – Once your hike is caught, you’re locked into that guess. If you guess correctly, it’s worth six points. If you fail to connect with the correct state, there’s still a chance to walk away with three points by correctly answering a trivia question about that state. And in every round, one of the incorrect states will be a designated penalty box, meaning if you hike your ball to that state, you’ll incur a three-point penalty. The location of the penalty box will change every round. The winner gets to make the loser shout something real stupid every time this sound plays in “Good Mythical More.” (upbeat music) – Okay. I’ve heard that sound before. – [Both] Say something stupid! – Now, Penalty box, that’s hockey. Hiking- – is football. – This is football. What’s that gotta do with fast food? – [Stevie] And I believe this sound is baseball now. – Yeah, and that’s a baseball sound. – Yeah. – We’re mixing sports metaphors. – [Stevie] Well, you know what each of these sports does have? A referee, just like KG the referee, who’s gonna do the coin flip to see who goes first. – Called an umpire in baseball. – Okay. – Correct. – Called an officiant in weddings. – Yep. Right. (crew laughing) – [Stevie] Correct. – Okay. Link, since you lost last time, you get to call the toss. We have heads. – Heads. – And we have tails. – Tails. – Okay. Which one? You know which one you’re gonna call? – No. Tails. – It’s heads. – It’s heads. (Link blows raspberry) – So Rhett will go second. – Who cares? – Okay. (upbeat music) – Before we get started, let’s see who we got on the field today. – What’s up? I’m Colorado, and in 1858, US settlers came to Cherry Creek when they discovered gold, which is present-day Denver. – Right. – And then it became a state. – Okay. – Wow. Okay. (crew laughing) Pick up the pace, Colorado. – Hello. I’m Muffy. I’m from Connecticut. And did you know that silly string is banned in Southington, Connecticut? – ‘Cause it messes up your paint. – Yes. Yes. The houses needed to be painted over and over again, and I just, I couldn’t afford any more servants. – Wow. She’s very high society. – Yes, she is. – Howdy, y’all. I’m Florida Man, named Pipe Johnson. I once wrestled three gators with only a cast-iron skillet. (crew laughing) – Did you win? – Oh, hell yeah, brother. (Rhett laughing) – People are like, wow, you understood him. – Yeah. – Yeah. We understood every word. – Illinois. Let’s hear it. – Okay. – All right. All right. It looks like Michael Myers. He usually doesn’t say anything. – [Link] Michigan. – Hello, I’m from Michigan. I’m a proud auto worker and a union man. If you wouldn’t mind, I’d like to offer a brief personal update as to what’s been going on with me. – We wouldn’t mind at all. – Well, all right then. As you might remember, in the past, I have professed to hate the Transformers because my wife ran away with one of those robots in disguise while they were filming a movie in the beautiful state of Michigan. Well, things have changed. After seeing the episode, my wife slid into my DMs and let me know that she was sorry and that she wanted me to join her and her new lover, Sideswipe, in a three-being relationship. And let me tell you, that alien from another world disguised as a car made love to me like no flesh human ever could. – Okay. All right. – And so now, I love those Transformers. (Rhett laughing) – Tennessee. – Hey y’all. I’m from Tennessee. Did you know that the Piggly Wiggly opened here in 1916? – 1916? – I think Tennessee’s also a musician of sorts. – Aspiring. – Okay. – Okay. Georgia. – Hi, I’m Georgia, and our state motto is wisdom, justice and moderation, but I didn’t know nothing about moderation when I got sweet tea! – Sweet tea. – Washington. – Hey, I’m Washington, home of Sydney Sweeney, as I did, you know, as I said last time, and apparently, people found that creepy. So it’s also the headquarters of Amazon, the greatest company in the world. – Okay. – Okay. – All right. – I love them and I love the way they use drones to get us packages. Not a sponsor. – [Rhett] Very enthusiastic. – [Stevie] Okay, we are kicking things off with Burger King, and- – What’s in here? – [Stevie] …of course, you have the iconic Whopper that- – [Rhett] Without cheese. – [Stevie] The reveal was not great on that one, I gotta say. – What do you mean? – Well, I just, when I said the iconic Whopper, and it looked like that, it just was kind of- – Oh yeah. – [Link] Yeah. That’s okay. Maybe it tastes good. – It needs cheese. So this is not when the Whopper was invented. This is when Burger King- – No. – …where Burger King was invented. – Yeah. – We all know what’s going on. – Yeah, I don’t. All right, so- – And you go first. – And I gotta go first. Okay. I know what’s going on. – Where is Burger King from? – I got you. I got you. Where does Burger King start? – [Rhett] Hmm. – I don’t know, man. Up there in Illinois, I feel like you were really early on in the burger game, right? Whose blood is that on your knife? – [Rhett] Yeah. – I don’t know. I’m gonna go with my gut on this one. I just feel like it’s Illinois. And thanks for the Illinois facts. Are you gonna catch it with the knife? – Oh yeah. He’s probably gonna stab it. Nope. That was not Michael’s fault. He’s mad now. – Don’t get mad. – You’ve upset him. – [Link] Don’t get mad. Come on now, Jason. I mean, Michael. – [Rhett] He’s so… Oh, now you called him Jason. – Here we go. You ready? Yes! See? I left nothing to chance. I threw it right through his hole. I mean, Burger King seems like that Illinois-type thing. – Well, you’ve made Michael mad. You’ve made him very, very mad. – Wasn’t he already mad? – I’m tempted to go there again for reasons I will explain in a second, but- – Oh yeah? – But let’s consider some other possibilities. – Sure. – They love burgers in Florida. – Well, four mains used in a private plane to draw a giant radar penis. (crew laughing) – I think he said giant radar penis. – Yes, sir. – I have some experience with giant radar penises. (crew laughing) – Yeah. We’ve heard. The reason that Illinois was what I was thinking, and I was hoping that you wouldn’t go there, Link, is because- – Really? – …I think there was a burger concentration in Chicago, and I think that Burger King was taking all their hints from McDonald’s, and so that’s why I’m just gonna say Illinois. – [Link] Oh gosh. See? It’s tough. – It’s tough with that knife. – [Link] He’s not putting his knife down. – So you gotta get it in the hole. – You do. – There we go. Oh wow! What a bobble! Man. Out of all- – He’s so upset. – …the answers, you had to copy mine. – Well, I was gonna do it and I was hoping you wouldn’t. – Okay. Stevie, are we right? – [Stevie] Burger King was first established in 1953 as Insta Burger King in Florida. – Oh! – Dang! (buzzer buzzes) – We got the Burger King and the Tiger King! (crew laughing) – [Stevie] So you both have a chance now to win three points- – Okay. – [Stevie] …’cause you both lost the six there, and you have to get this trivia question about Florida correct. On average, how many people move to Florida every day? – Every day? – [Stevie] Every day. Your options are A, 1,218, B, 574, C, 2,000, or D, 908. And somehow I’m gonna give you a three, two, one. You’ve now memorized all of the letters and numbers that I gave you. – I had a guess. I didn’t think you were gonna give us multiple choice. I had a guess, so I’m just gonna go with what was closest to my guess. – [Stevie] Okay. Three, two, one. – [Both] A. – [Stevie] It’s A. – Yeah, I was gonna say 1,400, but you didn’t give me an opportunity to. – I mean, we both, out of four random guesses, we’re both saying the exact same thing. – Yeah. So we both get- – You need- – [Both] Three points. (upbeat music) – [Stevie] Next, we have some chips, guac, salsa, and barbacoa tacos from the one and only Chipotle. – Oh, barbacoa. – I’ve never ordered tacos from Chipotle. What the- – Until today. – And they’re hard? – Well- – They got hard tacos at Chipotle? – You call that hard? – Well, I didn’t know if it had just softened ’cause it’s been a while. (crew laughing) – It doesn’t take long. – I think it’s usually hard. – It doesn’t take long to soften up. – Hmm. Chipotle. What could that be from? I’m still going first? – You’re still up. (Link humming) – Florida, buddy, I love talking to you, but you’re off the board now. – Well, I gotta take a run out to Bass Pro Shop anyway, so I’ll see y’all later. – Oh. No, don’t leave. Just stay here. – I couldn’t get out if I wanted to. (crew laughing) – That’s a pretty good accent. – Just so you know, I’m not copying you. – Chipotle. – I’m going to… I’m licking my answer on the back of this chip so you’ll know that I didn’t cheat. – [Link] What’s the most Southwest state we got up here? Well, Georgia. – Just so you know. – Georgia, you’re south. – Hey, did you know that George’s nickname is the Peach State? And I got a bunch of peaches in this ice tea! – Oh. – Go, Bulldogs! – But you’re not west. You’re just south. – I trust you! (Rhett laughs) – There’s not really any great Southwest option. But Chipotle is a values-based company with Aztec decorations. – Hmm. – Just somebody with a lot of ideas, a lot of time on their hand, a lot of space. Colorado, perhaps. – Ooh. Sorry, wait. I think I got altitude sickness. – Oh, you’re not used to it? – It’s a physical distress from a body not being able to handle low oxygen pressure. Most cases are minor, but some may be life threatening. – That sounded like he was just acting like he was having altitude sickness so he could explain it. – I’m feeling like Chipotle gives Colorado vibes more than anything else up here. Get ready. – Okay. Sorry. – Come on now. Don’t be so sluggish, okay? Help me out. Here we go. Oh, I overshot it! I overshot it. – It wasn’t even close. Not even close. – All right. Come on. Come on. I’m ready again. – [Rhett] That’s why we have multiple chances. – There we go. There we go. Right down the middle! – Nice work. I’m not gonna copy you, Link. – [Link] What’d you lick on your chip, homie? – I… Well, let me have a little fun first. – [Link] Have a little fun. – Let me have a little fun. You know, we haven’t checked in with Connecticut. Connecticut and tacos, that doesn’t seem like it goes together, but maybe I’m wrong. – I mean, I myself have never had a taco, but I do know that helicopters were invented in Connecticut in 1939. It’s from my granddaddy Cornelius. He was a very rich man. (Rhett sighs) – I think it’s Washington. – You think it’s Washington state? – I licked a W on the back of my chip. The reason I’m choosing- – Northwestern. – …Washington is because Chipotle was an innovation in fast food with the choose-your-own adventure situation. It was like fresh ingredients, but it’s fast, but… It started a revolution in the, I don’t know what you call that. I don’t know what you call that type of restaurant. And so I think that feels like something that happened in a center of innovation- – Yeah. – Like Washington, like Seattle. – Okay. – He doesn’t agree. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – Get that ball. But he doesn’t get enthusiastic about anything, so- – Yeah, just… – See? He’s still holding his phone. Oh, that was too easy. – Too easy. – Too easy. (Rhett sighs) Must mean it was wrong. – [Stevie] The founder and CEO of Chipotle opened the first Chipotle in an abandoned ice cream store in 1993 in Denver, Colorado. – Dang it! (bell dings) – We both had good guesses, but I had the right answer. – [Rhett] Yeah. – [Stevie] Link, that means you won six points, but Rhett, you still have a chance to get three if you answer this question about Colorado correctly. – Okay. – [Stevie] In Colorado Springs, Colorado, two men set the record for the longest session of what sport? – Whoa, okay. Thank you for clarifying it was a sport. – [Stevie] A, poker, B, pickleball, C, billiards, or D, badminton? – Longest session? – [Stevie] Longest sesh. – I’m gonna go with the shuttlecock, badminton. – [Stevie] It was C, billiards. (buzzer buzzes) – Love that. That means they both sucked at billiards. (crew laughing) (upbeat music) – [Stevie] Up next, we have the ultimate pepperoni pizza from the world-famous Domino’s. – World famous? – Hmm. That’s a- – Domino’s. – That’s not a great looking pizza. – Hmm. Let’s just close it back, man. – Tastes pretty good. – Mm-hmm. (claps) I’m still going first because I’m winning. Okay. – Hmm. Oh. – Hmm. – Tastes better than it looks. – Domino’s. Who would start a pizza chain? – Who would do that? – With a domino as the logo? Michigan. Is there a minivan Transformer? Lots of ways to get in a minivan. – Well, you’re right about that. I have not met all the Transformers, but I sure as heck have met Sideswipe. – I mean, it seems like it could be a Connecticut thing. I mean, you like really competitive, highfalutin games like backgammon and dominoes. – Yes, I’ve never played dominoes, but I more spend my time at the derby. But our state animal is the sperm whale if that does anything for you. – Doesn’t do anything for me at all. – Mm-mm. Mm-mm. – I’m into it. (crew laughing) – I’m gonna go with Connecticut. Come on now. Try. – I’m trying, darling. These hands haven’t been used in a very long time. – What about the elbows? Extend them. – Oh yes, yes. – There you go. – Here we go. Let me try again. There you go! You got it! She got a little sauce in her catch. – Mm-hmm. (crew laughing) – Man, Georgia, you’re always so happy. – Yeah! Did you know that Coca-Cola was invented in Georgia? – I did. – And there’s 50% Coca-Cola in this sweet tea! – Oh wow. She was sitting on that one. – [Georgia] Yeah! – 50% Coke. – Yeah! – I feel like it might be Illinois, not just because I wanna bring, you know, Michael back into the game, but this just feels like, again, I think that Chicago, it’s a pizza town. Now, obviously, this isn’t Chicago-style pizza, but they were like, we can’t be making this deep-dish stuff and getting it out the door real fast, putting it in cars and stuff, so we gotta do something a little bit flatter and so- – And so Illinois. – Illinois. – Oh, what? – Whoa! – Look at that! – Whoa! Whoa! – I think that counts. – I think it counts. It was clearly a catch, according to the rules of football. – [Stevie] Well, I hate to be the one to say this, but I am the one to say this. Link, you hiked your ball right into the penalty box. (buzzer buzzes) – No! – Oh! What a stupid aspect of this game. – Wow. It’s never happened before. – You would never know where it is until you hit it, and there, I did. – [Stevie] And you lost three points. I’m so sorry. – Oh! (buzzer buzzes) – Yeah, it’s bad. – Good gosh. – [Stevie] But did you know, that just eight months after the grand opening of the first Domino’s, one of the founding partners decided to trade his stake in the company for a used Volkswagen Beetle? And the first ever Domino’s was in Michigan. – Dang! (buzzer buzzes) – I’ve also used a Volkswagen Beetle. (Rhett laughs) – Do I get a trivia, please? – [Stevie] I’ve been told you don’t get a trivia. Thank you. – Oh, penalty. Double penalty. – [Stevie] But Rhett, answer this correctly about Michigan, and you get three points. – I need ’em. – [Stevie] Michigan has the world’s largest store of a specific theme. What is that theme? – Michigan. – A, Halloween. – It’s a gift shop. – [Stevie] B, Christmas, C, auto parts, or D, sports? – Sports. – Just sports? – Sports, yeah. Sports themed. – Oh no. They love their Christmas up in Michigan. I know that. B. – That’s what I would’ve guessed. – [Stevie] You are correct. – Yes! – [Stevie] The store has more than five acres of shopping space. – You can’t get too much Christmas. – [Stevie] Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland. – Hmm. Okay. (upbeat music) – [Stevie] The tie is scored, and we’re finishing up strong with a Cinnabon from- – Cinnabon. – [Stevie] Cinnabon. – Look at that. A nice little- – [Link] And they cut the whole thing in half, so you can just- – So we can just grab the middle and eat it. – I like to save the middle for last. Hmm. – That’s good. – I feel like you should go first now because I hit the penalty box. We’re tied now. Any rationale you give can help me. – Uh. Okay. (crew laughing) I feel like I got forced into that. But what if you copy me? – That’s my prerogative. – Okay. – But that would only tie us. – Wow. Cinnabon. A place where they like dessert, with a little frosting on it. – I feel like it could be anywhere, you know? – It really could be anywhere. Like a place that’s a little bit cool, both in vibe and also in temperature, like Washington. – Hey! Jeff Bezos hates PowerPoint. (crew laughing) He insists on printing out six pages before a meeting and having people read them. – Michael Myers is about to touch you with his knife. (crew laughing) – [Washington] Is that what he’s been doing this whole time? – Coming at you Washington. – Yeah. Put it in my mouth. (crew laughing) – That was too high. – It came right back to me. – You’re trying too hard. – My mouth’s right here. – Too low. – All right. You have once chance. – I dropped my phone. – You have one more chance. – Now, I’m nervous. Now, I’m nervous. – I can do it. Just calmly. – [Rhett] Oh God! – Okay. It does not count, dude. I’m sorry. – Thank God I was worse. – I’m sorry. – What about all the times that’s happened to you and we’ve edited it out? (crew laughing) Like literally every single time it’s ever happened to you, and we’ve edited it out and just continued with the game. – Prove it, though. (crew laughing) – Yeah, okay. Can we roll all those? – Fine, I’ll give you one more, but you gotta be further back. You gotta be over here. – Oh. Okay. – That was on you, dog. That was on you. – That was on you, man. All right. From there, two more tries. – Yeah, just keep doing it. I just want to catch it. – It’s only so many hours in the day, man. People gotta… There we go. Okay. (crew clapping) – Okay. – That was pretty magnanimous on my part. – Wow. – I don’t know what he is talking about. – Yeah. Yeah. It was. – Dang. Really could be anywhere. Illinois, Georgia, Tennessee, Washington. I think Illinois needs a claim to fame, but I also want it to be Georgia. I could see this being Georgia. It’s a very decadent, southern, sweet thing. More southern than Tennessee. – Yeah. Did you know that we are the most populous state number eight? And we failed the Stanley Cup eight times! – The most popular state number eight. – I didn’t know that, ’cause I don’t know what that means. – I think it means the eighth most popular state or eighth most populous state. – Oh! That was high. – Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. Do it again. – Colorado’s hat came off. – Okay, here we go. Nice snag, Georgia! – I got it! – Yep! All right. That sweet tea drew me into the sweetness. – [Stevie] I have previously stated this and I apologize, but Link, you’ve really done it. You’ve done it again. – Oh! – [Stevie] You got right in the penalty box again. – What? – Sorry man. – I’m sorry. (buzzer buzzes) And we can’t cut it out, unfortunately. (crew laughing) – I don’t understand. – We can’t cut it out. – I hate this penalty box. It’s just so dumb and stupid. – Yeah, it’s weird. – And somehow directed only at me ever. (crew laughing) – [Stevie] Okay. When the first Cinnabon opened its doors in 1985, the only thing on the menu was the classic cinnamon roll, and it was in the grand old state of Washington- – Hey! – …which means Rhett, you take this one, and you get to make up something really stupid for Link to shout every time you hear this sound in “Good Mythical More.” (upbeat music) – Bezos! (crew laughing) – [Rhett] It might be Bezos. – Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – All right, y’all say you know what time it is. – [All] What time it is! That was a good one, it had a lot of fun things to revisit. Well, I gotta say. Not the penalty box. Yeah. One of the last times we did that. Ever since that day when, uh, the mechanic from Detroit made me, against my will, picture him and his wife in a throuple with a transformer, uh, I haven’t. Painful. I really haven’t been able to get that image out of my head, and I blame him for that. So, close your eyes right now. I’m not going to close my eyes. Close your eyes. Because it’s the only thing I see when I close my eyes. I can’t sleep anymore because of it. Oil. There’s oil going all over the place. It helps to think about the Florida man, Trevor, because he really, he really brought it. Yeah, yeah. Why didn’t he come back. Too good. Too good, sometimes, you got George Costanza. You gotta walk out of the room. Yeah. At the peak of your joke. Okay. That marks the end of today’s fast food feast, but we got one more treat for you, the toy. This is Unboxing Rare Vintage Happy Meal Toys from March 11th, 2025. See. We spent 500 on old Happy Meal toys? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. If you needed any further proof that this show has been overtaken by nostalgic millennials, look no further than today where we spent $500 on old Happy Meal toys. Seriously? Did y’all get a hold of the credit card again? I think we gave it to them as part of their job. We only have one credit card. Y’all better hope people watch this episode. It’s time for Shiny Happy Plastic Opening Fast Food Toys of the Yore Okay, boys We bought a ton of Happy Meal toys from McDonald’s and even a few from Burger King and put out a survey to the Mythical Beasties and our very own crew to determine an official ranking of the most coveted toys nostalgic for Millennials, okay Uh, you’re gonna both, every single round, choose two Happy Meal boxes. And once you’ve opened them, you can decide if you want to make any trades. But you gotta agree that you’re gonna make a trade. The more coveted the toy is, the more points it’s worth. So choose and trade wisely. And before you can start blindly picking boxes, we gotta find a way to determine who goes first. What about pulling these fries out of this, um I think that’ll work. So, whoever gets the shorter fry gets the power of choice. Because you wanna go shorter gets the power of choice? Yeah. You wanna reverse expectations? Yeah. What about the way our culture thinks about people with longer fries should have more power? Uh, yeah, I think that’s, uh, we should– Nope, you’re right, you’re right, that’s great, that’s great. I get the power of choice. Okay, here’s a little preview of what’s up for grabs this round. Ooh. Furby figurines what? Pokemon Gold cards. Pokemon . . It does it like it’s encapsulated in some sort of a sphere, but I guess that’s the, the Pokeball Espin held hands , ESPN hand. I’m just being stupid. So each one has his own game. Yeah. And as you unbox, I will tell you a little bit more about each one, but before you do. Which one are you hoping for? The handheld games. Personally or the one that I think that the people want? Personally. This is just for funsies. I don’t want no Furby. I’d be all about Nugget Buddies. I want Nugget Buddies too. I’m gonna take the one that is the closest to you first! Ha ha ha ha! Fine, well I’ll take the one that’s over here. I’ll take the other one that’s closest to me! I’ll take this one. Alright. Okay, let’s unbox one by one. So I can tell you a little something about it. Ha ha ha! Yes! I got the gold ones! The Pokemon Gold Cards are from 1999, and these were considered a Burger King premium item, meaning that parents who wanted to secure them for their kids needed to pony up an extra 1. 99. Only two more dollars. And it’s got a, it’s got a– It’s real! The authenticity thing. Yeah, who else do you think has been grabbing onto that with their mouth? Can I open one? Yeah! Please do. Only thing that’s gonna make him upset is if I get Nugget Buddies! You did it! Ha ha ha ha! I got– You got the Espen. These ESPN handheld electronic games are from 2004, and our very own Tally chose them because she said she owned the purple soccer one as a kid, noting Quote, I was quite obsessed with it as a kid. It was probably the first handheld video game I ever owned, which was pretty cool. Oh! Uh, of course these don’t work. The only thing that would make you not happy is if I had Nugget Buddies, because that would mean that you had them. Right. What I didn’t just say. But, you know what? I’ve got the Nugget Buddies. No! Nugget Buddies! The Nugget Buddies first appeared in 1988, but had new sets in 92, 94, 96, 2019, and 20 23. So they’re like Mr. Potato Heads. Yeah, and Mythical beast Shari, who chose the Nugget Buddies in her survey, said I have one in my grandkids fight over who gets to play it. That means you got Furbies. Alright, we know what it is. Oh, they’re pretty big. They’re big and detailed. These Furby figurines are from 1998. There were five different series, each including ten different Furbies. One survey responder, Rachel, said that she picked these because it’s a Furby. It’s the coolest toy one could own back then. This one has a wheel, and it makes the, the ears go up and down, so it still works! This one does not, this one, oh, this one, you push it, and the eyes flutter. And this one, you put the hat, you push the hat, and it, it, it plays a saxophone? Okay, I know I’m not gonna part with the gold cards. I know that you know that this is bad, and I know that this is bad. The question is should we trade Nugget Buddies for Furbies? Nope. Not that I’ve seen these things in action. Hold on, look, have you seen the Nugget Buddies in action? Look, look, look, look. Listen, I will give you. You can’t split em. Everything we’ve got if you give me the Pokemon balls. I will not do this. Alright, let’s bring out those fries, boys. Okay. Still shortest guy? I’m going with the shorty. You go first. Oh, that one’s dropping. Maybe I want it. That’s pretty short. That’s pretty short. I wonder how short this one is. Okay, you go first. Barely got it. Here we go. I’m gonna take– Oh, wait, wait. Before you actually pick, I wanna show you what you could get. And I want you to tell me what you want. McDino Changeables? McDino? McDino. Mendocino. Lego Classics. Uh That’s cool. Neopets Plushies. And Teenie Babies. I want I’m choosing the Legos for myself, personally. That’s what I want for myself! Great. I like it when you both want the same thing for yourself. But the Teenie Babies seem pretty valuable to the Mythical Viewing. Yes. If I could write my own script, I would give myself the Lego classics and the Teenie Babies. And if you were going first, which box would you choose? The one right in front of you. Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! I’m choosing it! Ha ha ha! Okay, well, then, I’ll choose the other one in front of you. Good. I didn’t want that one. But I do want this one. And I’m gonna go first. What did I get? Oh, my goodness. I don’t I want these. Ew, they look pretty soiled. Neopets. Neopet toys are from 2004. Not washed. Mythical Beast Macy, who chose this in our survey, said, I used to have a ton of the Neopets when I was younger and this brought back so many memories, I’d do anything to have one again and heal that part of my inner child. Shout out to Neopets. Yes, they were my childhood. Well, gee, I mean, should we send these? If this is gonna heal a person. Yeah, we’ll send you. I feel like we need to mail it to you. We’ll send you one. No, well, we can’t commit to doing that. We might send you one. Okay. This has got a band aid on its head. Let’s see what I got. And some stains on the back, which are pleasant. Oh, I got the Beanie Babies. Ah! There’s so many of them! Oh my goodness! The Teenie Babies. And they’re all sealed. were sold in McDonald’s from 1997 to 2000. At the peak of their popularity in 1998, these toys were the cause of fights, including police calls, criminal charges, and injuries. There’s so many! These might be worth a lot of money! Why are you opening them up?! Because they’re not anymore, they’re Beanie Babies. Maybe, I, I mean they kind of are. Here’s an ostrich? Iggy the iguana, and I’m just gonna tell you, the, the production value on these things is just as good as a full size Beanie Baby, as far as I can tell. Very Beanie. Very Baby. Very Baby. Come on Lego Classics, I’m reaching in and I’m feeling, I’m feeling McDino. Well, it’s like I said, if I could write myself a script, I would have read the Legos. Ah! And the Teenie Babies. Give me a minute here. Oh, okay, take all the time you need. The McDino Changeables are from 1991. Uh, Mythical Beasts Jr., who chose this in our survey, said, Um, bro, it’s a McDonald’s dinosaur. That’s like two of the coolest things ever. McNuggets, but it’s a T Rex, bro! Wow. Yeah. Hotcakes become this. Hold on, these are actually cool. They’re Transformer like. They’re Transformer like. I think you popped the top. I think it’s got. Don’t hurt yourself. I think it’s got fry grease in it or something. But these are the old school chicken nugget. Oh, the styrofoam nuggets. That’s made out of styrofoam. Oh, the days of styrofoam. I think I’m starting to make you jealous. The Lego Classics. That is cooler for sure than the Lego Classics. Are from 1999. Survey responder Natalie said she chose this one because she remembers playing with these as a kid. They’re very cool. Figured out. Figured this out. Your mood seems to have really shifted because a moment ago you wrote your own script. I’m so happy for myself. The question is, do I need to trade? You know, I want to make this interesting. I’m not getting rid of the Beanie Babies. Beanie Babies are too in demand. I will trade. You don’t want these for the Legos, do you? Not a chance. I don’t know if I want to get rid of the Legos for those Transformers, but I think the Transformers are really cool. You know what? This is what I said I wanted. Oh, you don’t want to trade the Legos for that? I’ll trade the Legos for this. You can have them. I can’t figure out how to do this. I haven’t committed to it yet. What? I know you want them. I just want to make you happy. Until I take my hand off Lego. Your script shifted and you weren’t happy. This might be one of the biggest things! I don’t really I’m just doing it for you. I’m not doing it for Me. So, these are cool. I’ll trade. Will it make you happy? Alright, there you go. Take your hand off. There you go. Hey, Survive the Mythical Kitchen’s coming up quick, y’all.

Okay, good. Okay, let’s get to opening. Regrets! Rats! I love the Rugrats! I love watches! The Rugrats in Paris chat backed watches were from Burger King and were another premium item meaning parents needed to pony up an additional 1. 99 to get them. The watches each had four different phrases, they would say. Did they still say the phrases? I mean, I could see somebody wearing this. Alright, let me open up something. Come on, Tam Chain. Tam. Well, I got the sonic thing. I’m not, okay. I ain’t mad at it. Yeah. Three buttons. The Sonic handheld games were from 2004 and partnership with Sega for the franchise’s 25th anniversary. Juno, who picked Sonic said the Sonic handheld toys were literally the best. I would spend hours on the playground with that sucker. It’s not a sucker. That’s not what the playground’s for. Okay, I really hope this is Tamagotchi. I really hope it is. I really hope that it is. It is. Whoa, how is this happening? I hate it. The Tamagotchi keychains are from 1998 and were the source of many parents frustrations when their children didn’t realize they were different from the digital Tamagotchi pets sold in stores. Leah said, the Tamagotchi keychain was my favorite. Solely because my parents never would buy me the real deal. Brings back a lot of nostalgic memories. Look, it just has A pet that does very rudimentary motions inside of it. Yeah, it’s not mechanical. But it only fits in there in one way and I can’t get it back. Oh. Did you take him out? Oh, this one is electronic, I think. This is every single one of them. This is one through eight. Pretty cool. Of course, now we’ve opened them. Link, what, that means you got the dog and the cat plushies. You want those, right? That means I don’t really care. The dog, the cat toys were from 2005. Plushie versions of the popular brand that was centered on pictures of dogs taken with extreme focus on their nose. Brittany, not our Brittany, chose them and said, I had them all when I was a kid and I would love to have them still. Do we want a We’ll try to mail you one. Maybe a, yeah, maybe stripping. Promise. Yeah. Okay, well good news because it’s the final round and you both have the opportunity to trade one item from your opponent’s box that they cannot block.

That means that Rhett pulled off the win, and Link, in Good Mythical More, you must respond with a new tagline every time Rhett sings ba da ba ba ba. Oh! Haha, get ready for that. Not loving it. Haha, thanks for commenting and sharing this video. You know what time it is. I’m telling you, it’s not scripted. I mean, people think that when we’re playing a completely random game in which I continue to win, round after round, getting exactly what I want and exactly what you want. Not rigged. It just feels like it’s something that was scripted for your entertainment. And I’m not saying we are, you know, technically above doing that, but we did not do that. We did not do that. This is the way. What do you mean we’re not technically above that? I’m just, I’m just saying that. What do you mean? You’re just ca you’re casting your dispersion and doubt on this show. Occasionally we pull tricks on the audience, but usually you’re also being tricked at the same time. Like what I’m saying is that, I mean. We don’t rig the games. We’ve done things where we’ve rigged things where we said things were spicy and they weren’t, or whatever. Like that kind of thing, like a prank. But then the audience knows that. Right? Well, sometimes they, I don’t know when we reveal that. You’re dispersion. In this case. We don’t. We in any game where we don’t reveal the fact that we were, it was a joke, it’s never a joke. Thank you. It’s never scripted. We just don’t do that. It’s all real. Yeah. It’s all chance. What if I would’ve gotten, what if everybody would’ve just gotten what they wanted? Would’ve just been a nice unfunny episode. But that’s not what the universe wanted. Right, and I’m glad. It’s not like you took all those home and played with ’em and. Oh, I play with ’em all the the time. You’re like preciously arranging them on the shelf or something. Oh yeah, no, but you’ve seen my Rugrats in Paris dresser. Well, you’re right. Diorama. Yeah, that’s true. I take it back. Yeah. Alright, thanks for joining us for this fast food marathon. And for joining us through all of 2025. Yes, we will see you back here in 2026 on Friday. Yes.
