GMM 1721: Chewiest Food In The World Taste Test

Can we chew our way through a 50-year old steak? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good Mythical Morning! – Recently a study out of Saint Matthew’s University in Manchester was released which claimed that people who regularly engage in eating chewy foods may live up to three to five years longer than those who don’t. – Mm-hmm, and since I recently made a pledge to outlive very member of BTS, I think that study is a fantastic excuse to try eating some of the chewiest foods in the world. It’s time for We’ve Got Strong Jaws it’s True True True, So Let’s Make Like a Train and Chew Chew Chew. Okay, the Mythical crew has done their due diligence, or should I say, chew diligence. – You should. – By scouring every message board, forum, and like they could find on the subject in order to identify and track down the world’s chewiest foods. And now that we got our hands on them, we’re fixing to chew them and rank them. – And we’re doing that on a scale of five to one, starting with much a-chew about nothing. Dr. Chewlittle, that thing you chew, made about chew, and chew fast chew furious. – Let’s chew it. – [Both] Round one. – Okay, our first chewy food is a hard to find snack in Japan which happens to have a very passionate cult following. – It’s name loosely translates to Chewy Food, but how much chew can this stuff do? – Look at this thing. Now, before we open this up and taste it, we are pleased to announce the next Mythical Society quarterly collectible item is Rhett and Link On Vacation it’s a vinyl release, that’s right. We put our records on the Mythical Society. – Yeah we do. – It includes, I’m on Vacation, the original version plus a brand new remix, plus a brand new song called Why I Travel, and a special surprise inside.

Ooh, yeah, you know what we want? – I’ll take the bigger one. – You’re the bigger man. – Just physically. – Thank you for that. – I regret saying that now ’cause you’re gonna hold it against me. – [Rhett] It smells fruity, it kind of looks like– – [Link] It looks like a rainbow ball. – A planet of sorts. – Pop it and drop it. Okay. Good taste right off the bat. Sugary, it’s got that powdery coating on it. – What is that flavor? – I would say taste the rainbow, but– – I think it’s kind of like all fruit. – I don’t think they can have that in Japan. – You know, what is the seasoning that’s all the seasonings together? All spice. It’s like all fruit. – Hey, this is chewy. – It’s not just chewy, it’s strange. – It’s getting… It’s actually getting chewier. – It’s strange because I feel like I’m eating something. – Right, right. – But not like gum, gum you’re just chewing on something and nothing’s happening. Something’s happening. But I’m still chewing. – But this is a different chew. – It’s deceptive because I can feel us making progress, I can feel it beginning to go down my gullet, you know what I’m saying? – It’s just sliding down. – Yeah, little by little. – But– – But the chew. – It’s still very chewy. – It doesn’t stop being chewy. – How do they do this? – Some kind of Japanese magic. – Yeah, Japanese magic. – [Rhett] Is that what that says? – Well, it says something in Japanese, I don’t know. Oh my goodness. – And this is only the first one. – All right, we can spit it out. – We can’t spit it out. – Okay, well we can– – We gotta chew it to a completion. – You can’t really rank a chewed thing unless it’s fully chewed. All right. You’re not even chewing fast, man. You gotta get to the Link speed. – I’m chewing hard. Don’t get close to me while you chew. – You may be the bigger man, but I’m the bigger chewer. – I’m starting to get a little worried. – Goodness.
