There’s what in my peanut butter? – Let’s talk about that. (fun theme music) Good Mythical Morning. – You may have seen the sensational headlines that say that a lot of the foods that you eat contain beaver anal gland secretions. – Oh. Tasty. – And while that is not 100% accurate, it does turn out that there are many freaky ingredients in foods that you’re eating that are gonna disturb you. In a game that we’re gonna play called, Betchu Wouldn’t’ve Chewed That Food If You Knew What Was In it, Dude. – Nude? – Dude. – Okay. – You’re not gonna have to get nude for this game. Matter fact, you shouldn’t. It has nothing to do with this. – Well I’m nude under my clothes. – And let’s keep it that way. Alright, so, I’m gonna present a nasty ingredient that is in a food that many of us eat. – I eat a lot of foods. – Yeah I know. And you have to determine if I made it up or if it’s actually disturbingly true. – [Rhett] Okay. – You gotta get five of these right to escape a nasty punishment that is in the form of food. – And if I win then you have to eat that thing? – Yes. – No. No. Yes. – Yes. – Okay, yes. Here we go. Next time you grab a California roll just try and think, ♫ Hakuna Matata Because the imitation crab you’re eating contains bugs. Boiled beetles to be exact. – Boiled beetles. Boiled beetles. – In imitation crab. – Well I do know that imitation crab is not real crab. (laughs) – Mhm. – I know that. I’ve been thinking about that. – Does it contain boiled beetles? – I know that they use beetles… They crush up beetles in… Yeah, there’s beetles in food. That doesn’t surprise me. – Yeah. – I don’t know why they put ’em in crab. But why not? It’s 2017. – Maybe ’cause I’m trying to trick you, that’s why not. – True! Real. – It is real. (bell dings) – Yeah! – Boiled beetles make up dye that’s called natural red number five. – Oh, natural red. – It was also used in Starbucks strawberries and cream frappucinos but has since been removed. – [Stevie] Number four, number four. – Oh, it’s number four, Link. It’s not natural red five. – Oh, natural red number four? – Yes. – Did I say number five? – Yes. You said number five. It’s very distinct. – Natural red number five is my fragrance. – Right. (crew laughs) Natural red number four, I’m sorry. Matter of fact, we also have beetles in this goblet. Boiled for safety. You’re gonna have to eat… Oh, they’re huge. (crew laughs) I’ll just make you eat one of those. These are actually Rhino Beetles, they’re not the type that’s used to make natural red number four, not five. – Well I’m not going to lose. (laughs) Especially now that you’ve shown me that. – Oh yeah, you better try hard. – The goblet. – Ever wonder how those jawbreakers get so hard? You can thank fertilizer for all those chipped teeth. Afilamide, a chemical found in most fertilizers including Miracle Gro, is used as a solidifying agent in many hard candies. – A solidifying agent. – Mhm. Fertilizer. – Do you really need your fertilizer to be solid? That’s the thing I’m questioning. – Do you need your jawbreakers to be solid? Absolutely. Whatever it takes. – But that’s where I see the hole in the logic. – You see a hole? – I see the hole and I put the fertilizer in the hole and a little right answer grows out of it. Fake. – You don’t think fertilizer can be used as a hardening agent. That’s a hole? – Fake. – I’m sorry, Rhett. You’re correct. (bell dings) (laughs) – Yes. – I’m filling my mouth with jawbreakers because they contain no fertilizer. Afilamide, I made up that word. – Oh. Oh, it was a fake ingredient. – Yeah. – Got it. – It’s all fake. Ooo, man. I’mma have to eat one of these. – (laughing) Yeah. – If you don’t start missing some of these. – Yeah I gotta get five though, you know. – Dang it. – It’s a good start. I’ll eat a leg. – You might not want to take a second sip of that brewski in your hand. It probably contains fish bladder. That’s right, dried up fish bladders are frequently used in the clarification of beer. – The clarification of beer. – The clarification of beer. – How does someone figure this out? “Oh, hold on, stop. “I got an idea. “Last step, fish bladders.” – Yeah, they worked really hard to figure it out. – Clarification? Would that be like a filter? Or it’s an ingredient. It’s an ingredient in the beer? – It’s an ingredient in the filtration of the beer. – No it’s not. Yes it is. (crew laughs) – Who were you talking to? – The inner me. – Am I even here? – Yeah. I let you into a little Gollum moment there, I’m sorry. Yes, this is right. Fish bladders for clarification. This sounds correct. – Sorry Rhett, it’s right! (bell dings) (laughs) – Yes! – It’s mostly used in British beers. – Yeah, I figured. – You can taste that fish bladder. “Hey, bro. “Toss me a can of that Bladweiser. “Oh, we’re out? “Well give me some Michelob Ultra Fish-urine. “I’ll take that.” (gulping) – It sounds real British. – (laughs) Yeah. Yeah, Budweiser gets it in British. Ever enjoyed a refreshing glass of Mountain Dew or eaten a Starburst? – Both, yes. – At the same time? – Yeah. Occasionally. – Well then you just doubled up on some coal tar. (crew laughs) If you ate ’em both at the same time. – Coal tar. – Coal tar. Also the villain in the new Power Rangers movie. (laughs) Out March 24th. – Coal tar. – You wanna see it? I think I’m gonna see it. – They put coal tar into some shampoos that I have had to use in the past because of dandruff. – Now you’re lying for no good reason. – No I’m not. – So it says coal tar on the back of your shampoo? – Yeah, an ingredient. Active ingredient, coal tar for the dandruff. But I don’t have dandruff. Exactly. No, you wouldn’t do this. You don’t put this in Mountain Dew, you don’t put this in Starbursts, you put it up in the dandruff. – You put it in for the dandruff. – You put it in for the dandruff. It’s fake. – Little known fact, you should drink Mountain Dew for the dandruff because it contains coal tar. – Oh, really? (buzzing) Okay. – Yes, that is true. This is horrible news everywhere except the state of West Virginia where coal tar is a valid replacement for toothpaste. – Oh, and they’re also coal miners. – Yeah. – So it helps the local economy. – Alright, so. So I’ve got one point in… – You do. – In my column. But I’m still closer to eating one of these things. – Yeah you are. And I can smell ’em. I don’t wanna eat ’em. – As you know, I love peanut butter but I may need to reconsider how much I eat. The FDA allows seven rat hairs in your normal 28 ounce jar of peanut butter. – Seven rat hairs? – Seven rat hairs in your jar of peanut butter. – Now, I’ve heard about these limits. You know, these FDA limits, Link. It’s this like, you eat eight spiders in your lifetime while sleeping. – And the FDA regulates how many spiders crawl in your mouth. – The FDA is like, “You can eat eight spiders “In your lifetime.” – The spiders buy a crawling in a mouth permit from the FDA. – It seems like an urban legend. It seems like something that you tell somebody at a party and then they get grossed out but then later you realize that it was just some – Fake news? – 13 year old on the internet who, “Aw, this’ll get ’em. “This’ll get ’em with the rat hairs. Fake. – And by 13 year old you mean me. – Fake. – No, it’s real. (buzzing) – Dang it! – Uh-huh. And the way I see it, if 3,000 jars of peanut butter contains one whole rat pelt, then I’ve eaten multiple rat pelts. – You have. Full rat pelts. – Over the course of my life. – You shouldn’t feel proud about that. – You go, FDA. Alright. – Oh, man. I’m taking a turn for the worse. – Think twice before you throw that TV dinner in the microwave unless you like eating nail polish remover. Acetone is a commonly used preservative in less expensive frozen dinners. True or false? – Acetone. In the frozen dinners. – Preservative. – Now I’m just gonna do… – Not for flavor. – I’m gonna do the bad student thing. And the last two have been real so I’m gonna say that this one is fake. I’m just going like, I’ve done B the last two, teacher. Now I’m gonna do C. – But what would you actually say if you were? Would you say real? – I have no opinion. – You have no opinion? – I’m not gonna let Smeagol get in on this one. (laughs) I’m gonna say that it’s fake. – It is fake. (bell dings) – Hey! – Good for you, Rhett. But nail polish can eliminate bath tub ring and rejuvenate stained china. – Is that a joke or a truth? – That’s truth. (laughs) I got lots of life hacks. – You said it like a joke and I was like, Where is the joke? – Call me. There is no joke, I’m just trying to help the people out. – Okay. – Rejuvenate your china and thank me later. (crew laughs) – Okay, I gotta get one out of these last two, so you can eat this beetle. – You know mushrooms are a hot thing right now, of course. – Oh, yeah. – But did you know – Mushrooms are back. – They’re also chock full of maggots? Let’s bring the FDA up again. They say it’s okay to have up to 19 maggots in a three and a half ounce can of mushrooms. 19 maggots. – 19 maggots? – 19 maggots. 19 maggots? – In a three and a half ounce can of mushrooms, yeah. You know the FDA. Just a bunch of 13 year old kids trollin’. – Is it just pieces of maggots or it’s a whole maggot? That can’t be real, man. That can’t be real. No, no. Listen, I’m quittin’ the country. I don’t wanna be a part of a country that would have a federal thing… – You’re relinquishing your FDA membership – Yeah. – If this is true? – I’m taking the membership card away if this is true. Fake! – It is real. (buzzing) – Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh. (crew chuckles) – FDA, crazy, man. They’re realists. It’s like, it’s gonna get in there, let’s just welcome it. It’s protein. – I gotta get this one right. – It all comes down to this, Rhett. – Oh, god. – Who’s gonna eat one of these Rhino Beetles which is not in anything that I know of? Except Rhino Beetle. – Why you got so many? – Options. If you’re chuggin’ on a Red Bull you’re sucking down some good old fashioned cow bile. It’s a caffeine replacement found in most energy drinks. Cow bile. Cow bile. – Cow bile. – Cow bile. – Cow bile? – It’s losing its meaning for me. Cow bile, cow bile. – Shoot, I mean, – Cow bile. – The whole logic of it, was it true or was it false, it no longer matters anymore. – Off the table. – It’s off the table. – Red Bull contains cow bile. – I’m gonna have to go to my experience here and just think about the last time I tasted Red Bull and ask myself, did you taste cow bile. – Red Bull contains cow bile. – Mm, that makes me think it doesn’t. Why would they put something from a cow in there if it’s called bull? That’s sounds like bull to me. (laughs) – Yeah but maybe I’m double trickstering you. – Gosh. (panting) Oh, true! – Are you sure? Are you sure? You sure wanna change your answer at the last second? – True. – Are you sure? It is true! (bell dings) (laughs) (yells) That’s what taurine is! You’ve heard of taurine? – Oh, I’m so relieved. – Oh my goodness. Man, that was close, okay, shoot! – Here you go. Enjoy it, brother. – Alright, I’ll pick one out and chomp it down.
