GMM 1948: Tasting Weird Baby Food

What happens to beef jerky when it goes through a baby food maker? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good mythical morning. – A lot of parents choose to make their own baby food these days so they know exactly what they’re feeding their infants. But what happens when you’ve run out of new recipes? Or when you run out of babies? – Huh. – Meaning that they’ve grown up. What do you do with your baby food maker? – You save it, man. You save it for when you get old, because eating soft ground-up food is like the bookends to the circle of life. – True, but we’re not gonna be feeding great-grandpa today. Instead, we’re gonna be putting things in a, whoa. – Hold on to your, we’ve already broken it. – Baby food maker. This thing, this thing’s pricey, and not a sponsor, but we’re gonna be putting lots of stuff through this thing to find out what kind of odd, inventive, maybe good recipes that we can come up with. So hold on to your binkies, ’cause we’re about to get infantile. It’s time for putting things in things, baby food maker edition. (relaxed music) (both crying) – I’m okay. I’m okay. – I’m hungry, I’m hungry! – Now this is the BabyMoov Duo Mill Station Food Maker XL, not a sponsor, it can do a lot. It can steam three trays of food simultaneously. There’s another tray I’m not using for this first part. It blends food at three different speeds depending on the consistency you want, how old your baby is. I mean, I guess it gets thicker the older your baby gets. – My baby is 11. – [Rhett] But most importantly, it holds 12 cups of food. – And at $230, I mean, does this thing spank a wayward child as well, or is that not allowed anymore? – We don’t do that anymore, Link, unless– – Exactly. – We can let the robots do that. – That’s why I want the robots to do it. All right, so this thing is good at making baby food for babies, but is it good at making grown-up food for babies? – Yeah, there needs to be more of that, right? – We want to see how it handles beef jerky when we steam it with Monster energy drink, and then, you know, so you steam it and you soften it. – We’ll get to that in one second. But we had two kinds of beef jerky to choose from, Jack Link’s and Oberto. (cheerful music) And we took a survey and it turns out that eight out of 10 babies. First of all, eight out of 10 babies is difficult to communicate with, but eight out of 10 babies prefer Jack Link’s over Oberto. (cheerful music) – The other two babies were just mad because they’d been spanked by a robot. – So get your Jack Link’s, Link, okay. – What is this? Feed this to your baby. – You give that to the baby while the baby’s waiting. – You don’t want your baby to be too moist. – Okay, now give me the Monster energy drink. – Man, you’re doing all the work over there, having all the fun. – Okay, boy, it smells like Sweet Tarts. Get this in there – It’s basically a steamer and a blender that are just connected by some sort of futuristic peach-colored device. All right, so we’re gonna set this thing for eight minutes to steam. And in the meantime, we’re gonna enjoy some Oberto. (cheerful music) I think I’m gonna be a bad grandparent. – You’re definitely gonna be a grouchy, grumpy grandparent. – No, listen, I can say what I want to say. – I, I, listen here, damn it. I can say what I want to say. – I bet you’re gonna be a stupid granddad. I mean, I want to be one of those granddads that gets out of the chair. – That’s where you’re setting the bar? – (laughs) I don’t want to be one of those granddads like, “come here, come here to me in my chair.” Here we are eight minutes into the future. Let’s see how the jerky has softened. It’s a hydrator, right? – [Rhett] Okay, here you go. – Pour it into my hand. – See how soft that is. – We basically rehydrated beef jerky. I mean, we, just so far we’ve just made beef for babies. It’s really soft. It’s basically the consistency of a Twizzler now. It’s really floppy. – [Rhett] Toss it in there. – Taste a piece, just to see. – Should I put my bare hand in the blender? – No. Yes. It’s soft, right? – Oh man. – Does it tastes better? – The babies have been getting the good stuff. It’s so moist. – Well it’s Monster energy infused. – Oh, I didn’t even think about that. – Yeah, it doesn’t taste great. – Let me just get a couple of splashes here. – Puree that stuff down to baby formula. Come on, babies, gather around. It’s time for your pureed Monster energy beef. Everybody gets a taste. Okay. Right in here. – My baby can eat that. Any baby can eat that. – So your baby eats this, you got a 50/50 chance of them becoming the next Shaun White or never leaving the basement. Hmm. – Okay, and baby spoons. – Mm, baby like. Baby is stupid ’cause it’s, it’s bad. – Most of the time you want to calm them down, but sometimes, especially when they’re about to like go to the park. – Yeah. – And you want your kid to kind of like stand out a little bit, not be taken advantage of. – You want them to like gnaw on the slide. – Pump them full of Jack Link’s and Monster and just let them loose. (relaxed music) – This just in, giving caffeine to babies is not recommended by doctors. – This is America, we don’t listen to doctors. – Let’s make a mocha for babies. – That’s right, okay. We’re gonna combine milk. – Down here. – So I’m putting the milk in the collection. – Can I, can I? It’s kinda my thing. – Oh, but you’re dressed like a baby right now. – And then right here. – You can do it. – Remember when it was on your side and you did the stuff and I sat there worthless? – Well, I had it all on my side. – Be worthless. – Okay. All right, I’m just here. – It’s great. – [Stevie] Kids. – I’m just here to just be supportive. – And then I’m pouring all the beans here, Stevie. See how good I am at that? – [Stevie] Okay, just please be nice to each other, boys. – And then there’s a chocolate. I’m not gonna touch it. I wouldn’t dare. – And then take the, hold that. – I wouldn’t dare touch it. – Hold that. And then we got some Ghirardelli. – You ever been at the Ghirardelli shop? – You know it, man, I’ve been to San Fran. I’m a tourist. Okay, so what we’re gonna do is we’re gonna steam the milk up through the coffee beans and the chocolate. Steamer ready, 10 minutes. Okay. And now we’re just gonna sit here and are we out of the Oberto? Seems so. – Why can’t you give kids caffeine? Let’s talk about that. Somebody look that up. – Welcome to the future, mocha’s been here waiting. Listen to this, man. Ooh, we’ve got a top layer. – [Rhett] Melted chocolate. – [Link] It’s not just melted, it’s kind of, it’s steamily coagulated. – And we’re gonna put all those ingredients in the blender, right? – [Link] Yes we are. – [Rhett] Don’t hurt yourself. – And a lot of the chocolate made its way through these holes. – Into the coffee? – Onto the coffee beans. So we’re actually getting some sort of a mocha, pre-mocha experience. Now with this one. – [Rhett] Just do it, man. – Coffee beans. – They softened up a little bit maybe, maybe just a little bit? – [Link] Nope, nope, nope, and then this. – [Rhett] Try to keep it steady now. – And you try to keep it steady. Okay, how do I pour this in there? Just pour it? – Yeah, stand up, that’s it. – Ah, kinda my thing. (laughs) (bowl clatters) Baby drinkin’ mocha time! All right, we ready? – All right, strain it right into this. How’d you get chocolate on the back of your hand? – That’s been there for days. Oh, what just happened? That wasn’t me. – The jury is still out, but I feel like if this had started on my side, we’d be, it would have ended differently. – Okay, and now, and then the other, this is gonna be good. – It smells incredible. Is this how you make mochas for real? They use this at Starbucks? – Yeah, sure, sure. – They got a baby maker in the Starbucks? – Don’t forget the word food. – Baby maker in the Starbucks. That’s what they call me every time I go into a Starbucks. – Slap those lids on there. – The baby maker is here. Technically no, I’m not a baby maker anymore, I can’t, it’s impossible medically. – Oh, I like how the, this part right here is bulbous. Is it too hot? Is it hot? Is it real hot? Is it really hot? – It’ll be probably be too hot for you. – [Link] Well challenge accepted. – You’ve got to turn it up, like a teat. – It’s a little too hot. (Rhett laughs) Did you, did you really sucky? – Mm-hmm. – [Link] It’s strong too. – [Rhett] I haven’t had a mocha. – I mean your baby’s gonna be wide-eyed and prance away. – When’s the last time you just had a mocha? – This is good, they should sell this as a mocha maker. – Baby maker, mocha maker. – [Stevie] Not a baby maker, baby food maker. – Hey, here’s the thing, Stevie. If you left this thing alone for an infinite amount of time, eventually it would make a baby. That’s how statistics work. (crew laughs) – An infant amount of time? – And if you ran this thing an infinite amount of times with these ingredients, at one point in the distant future, a baby would come out of it. That’s how life happened. (relaxed music) Okay, so there are a lot of treats out there that aren’t suitable for babies because they’re choking hazards, but we don’t think that’s fair. Take a Jawbreaker, for example. Babies should be enjoying Jawbreakers, but they don’t even have teeth. They don’t have jaw strong enough to break them. We gotta make Jawbreakers suitable for babies. That is the mission. We’re changing lives. – We’re gonna put this Jawbreaker into this steamer. – We won’t need four of them, Link, because they’re gonna, actually these four little divots that I’m gonna just like, oh, you did it. It’s like a game. – And I’m gonna just give that one, hey! – I don’t know what game that is, but you just won it, my friend. – And we got two that are gonna stay hard over here so we can compare them afterwards. – Steam at? – [Link] You think they’re gonna get real soft, but what’s gonna happen to the paint on these things? – Paint is probably not what it is. Oh look, look at the paint. – Ooh. – [Rhett] Can you see that? – [Link] It’s melting. – [Rhett] It just dissolves. – Yeah, yeah, yeah, let’s keep going though. Keep going. Oh, oh, it’s gonna, put the top on. – Oh, it’s all out of whack now, oh no! You watch those TikToks where it’s like this guy with like a deck of cards and he’s obviously thrown like a million cards to try to get it to go in this little slot and then it finally happens. – Yeah. – Do you like those TikToks? – Nope. – Me neither. I hate them. – Oh, oh, welcome to the future. Let’s take a look at these Jawbreakers. – [Rhett] Whoa, what? – Look at all those colors, oh man. – We got orange daddies in here. – Tilt it, tilt it. – I want to take the whole thing out. – Man, that’s what it looks like when a Muppet gets cremated. So is it soft? Oh man, it looks like you just removed a hernia from Shrek. – I’m in. – [Link] Oh, taste that hernia. – It’s hot. That’s legit hot. – Is it legit hot? (grunts) Is it legit hot? – Here, see how hot it is. – I don’t want to be touching my tongue to legit hot. – Like this, real fast. You didn’t even touch it. Like actually touch it touch it. – It’s hot, man. – It’s legit hot. – It’s legit hot. – But I’m gonna just– – [Link] Is it gonna get hard again? – I’m making the decision to eat it no matter what. – Oh gosh. (groaning) You’re a masochist. (Rhett groans) – Man, that’s hot and sweet. (relaxed music) Tomorrow is the last day to join third degree monthly to get the “Rhett and Link sing Lionel” vinyl recording. – You want it. – Two incredible Lionel Richie songs, “Round and Round” and “You Are,” and we can’t wait for you to hear them. The record is only available in the Mythical Society. Visit mythicalsociety.com for details. – Okay, say that your little baby is hungry, but they can’t make up their mind what they want to eat. Well, I’d tell your baby if you can’t make up your mind then I’m gonna blow your mind, because we’re gonna be putting an Applebee’s classic combo platter in this baby food maker so that indecisive baby can sample a little bit of everything. – I like the idea of this, if for no other reason than it just kind of gives your baby a taste of Applebee’s. – Boneless wings. – Know what I’m saying? – Mozzarella sticks. – You don’t want them to get too highfalutin. – And then some– – You want them to grow up with knowing, you know. – What are these? What are these quesadilla things? – [Rhett] Quesadillas. (crew laughs) – Okay, and then one of those, and then up here on the top we got to soften these chips down so that when we puree them, they’re soft and not prickly. Welcome to the future. I’m exiting the Applebee’s sauna, and the top, now see if those are soft. Might be hot, are they softened a little bit? – Oh yeah, look, no crispies. – Okay. Yeah, no crispies. We’re gonna throw these into here, okay. And I’m gonna put that in there, yes. – You’re really gonna have to drop that thing. – Cheese quesadilla. (beep) Chicken and mozzarella sticks. (beep) – Coming in with some salsa. (beep) Artichoke dip. Marinara. – Marinara. Hurry up, I’m about to– – Ranch. – I’m about to put the lid down. (beep) (machine whirs) Yeah! (beep) Come on. – Oh. – That’s the sound of me breaking it. (beep) You know what? This is good. This is nice. Baby food consistency. That’s pureed. Let’s get our baby spoons and taste this. And this makes total sense because whenever I go to Applebee’s, I need somebody to burp me. – Yeah, right. Wow. – [Link] That tastes good. – That’s actually really good. – I know you might think it’s nasty, but everything, this is the proof that a Applebee’s sample platter is very well constructed. – It’s very complimentary, good gracious. – When you steam and blend it all together, it really works. – I’d just eat that, just a big bowl of that. – The only problem is it still might be a little too much for those teething babies. So we need to turn it into popsicles. – Of course, of course there’s another step to this. (laughs) – [Link] And then it’s frozen and you just pull it. – Oh wow. Oh, look at that perfect release. – Ooh, look at that, double perfect release. – It hits a little different when it’s frozen. – But that puree will be great inside a casserole. Take note, Nicole. – It was quite a discovery. Okay, babies. You’re welcome. – And parents. – I mean, we’ve done a lot for you today. – We feel for y’all, all the parent mythical beasts out there, hang in there and thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – You know what time it is. – I’m Jessica, this is Link.
