Today we’re gonna put our tongues to the test. – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) (fire roaring) – Good mythical morning. – We have got a tasty ton of show for you today, including but not limited to finding out what happens when you get angry, it could get ugly; the strangest shades of lipstick outside Criss Angel’s medicine cabinet; and we also try to crack Google’s stupid question algorithm. – Yes, but first, when you hear superpowers you probably think super strength, super sight, or supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. – Of course. – I almost said that right. – But you didn’t. – Not quite right. – Expialidocious. – Yeah, but it turns out that you might have a real life superpower that you don’t even know about! Yes, one in four people are something that is called a super taster, the ability to taste things in a superheroish type way. And, Link, I am hoping, hoping that this is what you are, because it would explain your extreme pickiness, just explain so many years of frustration. (laughing) So I’m really hoping for your sake that you are one. I know that I am not one. – Well now that you’ve pointed out, I guess I am too. So we’re gonna see if we are, or see if I am, and since we need four people to conduct this experiment, we’re gonna get a little help from ASAP Science. It’s time for… ♪ Supertaste, Supertaste ♪ ♪ He’s super tasty ♪ ♪ Yeow ♪ We are here with the ASAP Science guys, Mitchell and Gregory. – Actually, my name is Bat Mandable. – And I’m the Patriotic Palate. – Yes, that’s right, we’re all dressed as super tasting superheroes. I am The Incredible Gulp. – And I am the Lick. – Right, ’cause one of us, any one of us, guys, could be an actual super taster. So we just want to be prepared. – I just don’t know how you can be a patriotic palate; you’re Canadian. – I know! – I know, this feels really wrong, I know. – I was forced into this. (laughing) – But I’ve always thought of you as a bat mandible. – Yeah, no, no, I wear this all the time. It’s very onesie-ish. – I will also use this for other purposes. – So here’s how this is gonna work. Super tasters are the most sensitive to four specific categories. We’ve got spiciness, bitterness, fat content, and carbonation. So with that in mind, we’re gonna have four different rounds where we taste things that have a little bit more of one of those things, and we figure out if we can detect which one has more of that particular thing. – Thereby determining who is the superest of tasters. Let’s get to it. (dramatic music) Okay, apparently super tasters can tell the difference between low and high fat content in milk. So we have before us some milkshakes, but of course we don’t do normal milkshakes. – Yeah, we don’t. (laughing) – These are mac and cheese milkshakes. One of these is made with half and half, and the other one’s made with whole milk. – That’s a slight difference now. – Half and half has more fat than whole milk, but not as much as cream, which we didn’t use. Which is what you use in Canada? – Yep, yep, we have cream or milk. – You just go all the way. – All out or not. – We go half, all right, so let’s taste these things and see which one has the most fat, which would– – Do we do number one first? – Ooh it’s warm! – made with the half and half. – Why is it warm? – It’s very warm. – Is it just cheese? – I’m gonna start with the one. Is everybody starting with the one? – I’m starting with the one. – That makes the most sense I think. – Oh it’s thick! – Can’t even suck it up. – [Rhett] This is a thick milkshake. – Oh man, bringing all the boys to the yard. – It bypassed my mouth and went to my throat. – I’ll tell you right now, it is good! – How did that happen? – It is good. – You don’t like it? – No. – Oh my God. – It’s like drinking liquid cheese, which I’m all about. – This is like, this is delicious. – Alright now I’m gonna go for two, you guys wanna join me? – I love this. – Ugh. – Mm. – Warmer. – It is warmer. (laughing) – Does that mean anything, does fat hold heat more? – No, that has nothing to do with super– that’s super feeling with your tongue. It’s tough, I think I– – I have an an– whoop, no. – I immediately know. – I think that I know too. – Well, the one that’s warmer feels like it has more fat in it, because it’s warmer. – Like, yeah. – Oh yeah? Is that right, Rhett? – [Stevie] Are you guys ready for the guess? – Okay, so we have our paddles, let’s pull them out and then– – I’m pretty confident. – You are? – I think so, I think I’m a super taster. – I’m not a super taster. – [Stevie] Here we go, three, two, one. – One. – Two! – I’m alone, I’m correct and alone in this. This one has more fat, it does. – How do you know, you just taste it. – Well I’m a super taster. – Okay, we’re about to find out. – [Stevie] The milkshake with more fat is number one. – Whoa! Whoa! – Mr. Lick! – Okay, Link. – Lick it up. – You might be diggin’ yourself out of a lifelong hole here. (laughing) (dramatic music) Okay, now we’re gonna taste for bitterness and we’re using bitters to taste for bitterness. Usually you put bitters into a Manhattan, like a cocktail, but this ain’t Good Mythical Cocktail Hour, this is Good Mythical Morning, so we’ve got Manhattan clam chowder. With bitters, which’ll be great I’m sure. – Are there bitters in both, or just bitters in one? – There’s more bitters in one. – Ooh, okay, so they’re both gonna taste– – So it’s not just detecting bitter, it’s detecting which is bitterer. – I’m more of a New England clam chowder. – Yeah, what’s Manhattan, is it with– – Manhattan means there’s no cream. Yeah, the creamy one is the New England, which I– – I did not know there was such a thing as non-creamy ones. – It tastes bitterer than that for sure. – Ugh. – Yeah, it’s not good. – Can you see getting this at a restaurant? – It tastes like Christmas took a dump in my clam chowder. – That’s disgusting. – Why are you so bitter about Christmas all of a sudden? – It wasn’t that it tasted bitter, it tasted spicy. – Oh, I think I know. This costume’s true, I am a super taster, I got this one. – Ooh, got it, all over it. – I feel pretty confident about this one. – I think it’s the most disgusting thing I ever had. – Yeah, I’m confident that this is horrible. – To me it feels pretty straightforward. – [Stevie] Alright, here we go. Three, two, one. – Two. – One. – No, I said two. – I said one. (laughing) – Wait, what? – Yeah, I thought two. – You’re with me. – I thought one. – At first I thought one. – I can tell, ’cause you’re holding up the one. (laughing) – What’s the correct answer? – How do I indicate what I thought? Oh, with this. – [Stevie] The chowder that’s more bitter is chowder two. – Whoa! – Link the super taster though, Link! I mean okay, alright. – This was so much more– – My annoyance with you is softening. (dramatic music) – Super tasters can also detect different levels of carbonation. Before us we have two sodas with different levels of carbonation and also some Pop Rocks with white tape over where it says Pop Rocks. (laughing) – It does say Pop Rocks on the back, I found it. – Pop Rocks. – Can’t cover it all, boys. – Big fans, not a sponsor. Okay, Pop Rocks has nothing to do with this, except that it’s gonna make it more fun. – More elevated, more fun? – And maybe more difficult. – Yeah, I think that it… It’s not a central part of things. – Are we putting that– – So the Pop Rocks in your mouth first, and not in the drink, ’cause I could see that Link was about to put them in his drink. – Yeah, I was. – Okay. – Alright, so. – Are we doing this one first? – Like the whole thing of this? – Pop Rock it up. – Yeah, as you wish. (mumbling) – Number one here. – Oh wow. – Don’t swallow, you’ll die. (laughing) You know that urban legend. A super taster, Link, should be able to get right through this. – Ooh it stings. – I feel a lot of things happening in the back of my throat. – Again, this is super easy. (laughing) I got this one in the bag. – Yeah, I think I know this one too. – Oh my God, my mouth. – Oh I have a lot of Pop Rocks. (laughing) – Don’t laugh it’s so hard. – I feel like heat mouth is a super power. – This is amazing though. (laughing) – Okay, man, if I’m wrong about this one, I feel like I should just quit because it seems so obvious to me. – This one feels obvious but I’ve said that every time. – Yeah, me too. That’s why I have no confidence at all. – [Stevie] Alright, let’s see, three, two, one. – Two. – Two definitely. – Yes. – Two definitely, right? – Please be two. – We all said two. – [Stevie] The more carbonated soda is two. – Yeah! (dramatic music) – Okay, now we’re gonna taste for spiciness. One of these ice cubes has more drops of Satan’s Blood Hot Sauce in it than the other. Let me say, before we do this, Link, because you’ve gone three for three. – I have. – And this is our last test. If you get this right, you’ve got a clean sweep. You are definitely a super taster and I promise to never complain about your pickiness again. – Did he say never? – I did. – I heard never. – And let me say, this is like a big part of our lives man, like since we were like six. I mean a whole comedy foil is gonna be gone from our comedic duo if you get this. – [Gregory] Do you need to shake on this? – I’m cool with that. – Okay. – Yeah, you guys can shake. Does it count with the blue heel? – Okay. – Lift the leg. Deal. – Okay. – Wow. (laughing) – Now listen, I may make annoyed faces, because I can’t help that, but I won’t– (laughing) I might cut my eyes at the camera, the people will know that I’m annoyed, but I will not say anything, okay, to you. I’ll just go home to my wife and complain. – I’m glad you guys are here for this as witnesses. – I’m just gonna, I’m gonna lick first. – Just lick? – A super taster would swallow it whole, I’m just sayin’. – You’re the super taster. – Oh no. – Sure, I know I’m not a super taster. – I have nothing to prove! (laughing) Yes, I do, shoot I’m gonna be all nervous now. – Yeah, I’m just gonna do a little woo hoo. – Oh I hate that. – [Rhett] Oh gosh. – How do you know if you’re just weak versus a super taster? (laughing) – [Rhett] Oh Gosh. – I think I need to burp, fart and die at the same time. I don’t know what. – Well you know that happens when you die. (laughing) You burp and fart. A lot of times you just completely crap. – Oh gosh. – A lot of people don’t like to deal with that reality. – Here come the hiccups. (burping) (laughing) – He’s burped, he’s probably farted, and now he’s about to die. – That was a hiccup, no I’m hiccupping. I’m hiccupping, burping, farting and (burping) dying. – I can’t do the second one yet. – What if it’s worse especially? – I feel pretty confident that I know which one is spicier. – Did you do both? – I did do both. (hiccupping) And I think that– – Oh my God. – I think that Link is gonna detect this one– – Only thing that’s gonna redeem this moment is if I get it right. – Alright, I’m ready. – [Stevie] Three, two, one. – Two. – Oh, I said one. – I said one. – Whoa. (laughing) – Stevie! – [Stevie] The spicier cube is… One. – Aahhh, yes! Yes! – No! – Yes, yes, yes! He’s not a super taster. He’s a pretty good taster, but he’s not a super taster. I will still complain. – Oh, that’s a shame. – You were so close. (laughing) I feel for you! – Look, the Link is going into hiding. – The Link couldn’t lick. – Alright, stick around for the next video to see if we can take some weird-sounding lipsticks and rub them all over our employees’ lips. – [Link] How do you smell me now?
