What happens when you smell one thing and taste another? – Let’s talk about that. (upbeat music) Good Mythical morning. – It’s hard to believe, but it’s been five years since we last took a dive into the world of smell tasting. – Wow. – If you don’t remember, that’s when you smell one thing and taste another. – Oh! – What is that? – Octopus. (link gags) (Rhett laughs) So if we’re lucky, there’ll be some, (Rhett clapping) – Gorgonzola. – Some clapping and maybe some, whatever you were doing into that bucket. – And some octopus. – Okay. But today we’re doing all new, crazy combination. Yeah. Let’s find out if we can make it through unscathed. It’s time for, What’s In My Mouth? I Don’t Have A Clue, But It Smells Like That Time Matt Damon Bought A Zoo. – Okay, we began this experiment a few seasons back, but we have since expanded in our boopidy boop boop boop research on the matter and discovered some new things. So not only does smell influence taste, and taste influence smell, but the process of smelling occurs in two distinct ways. – When it comes to smelling, we mainly think of what we breathe in through our nostrils, which is called ortho, nasal olfaction, very scientific. – But another way that is arguably the most important when it comes to smelling and tasting is a scent that comes up from the back of your mouth when eating called retro nasal olfaction. – So when you combine ortho nasal and retro nasal olfaction and some good old gustatory goodness, you get the full sensation of flavor. – Now, will knowing all this helps us perform better than we did last time? Of course it will. – We’re gonna be given one item to smell in these upgraded, all olfactory factories, and then one item to taste, gonna be the same item at the same time, Stevie’s gonna give us a countdown. We have to guess the mystery item that we’re eating. – And if we both get it wrong, Stevie will provide us with a hint. We’re gonna guess again, whoever guesses correctly, wins a point. And the person with the most points at the end wins. And the loser has to smell the winner’s tongue. – Oh. (upbeat music) Our visors are in place. Let’s bring in the smells and I’m, Rhett, I’m not gonna look at you for the feeding part obviously. What is that? Is that, that’s a strong dark scent. What is that? – I mean, I think it’s probably barbecue sauce. – Is it barbecue sauce? I thought it might be some sort of leaves. – A strong, dark scent. – It’s very out of focus. – Of barbecue sauce. – I’ma push it in a little bit, there you go. Is it totally under your nose holes? – It’s a little far out, but– – Yeah, push it in. Push it in. – Well, it’s. – Don’t be shy, all right. – Well, hold on, I mean, that’s. – My eater works, so I think I’m ready. – Gonna take a second ’cause it’s. Okay. – So I, you know, we should be breathing deeply. – Can’t hold your breath, you get it. – I’m ready to get fed. Feed me. Oh, it’s slimy. – Okay. Is this a three, two, one? – This is a three, two, one. – Okay. Actually, I kinda enjoy– – I’m really scared. – I kind of enjoy this. I’m enjoying this. – All right, sniff it, but I don’t wanna look at you though. – I’m sniffing it. I sniffed and tasted it at the same time, but I know what this is. – Oh, okay, okay. – Let’s three, two, one it. – Three, two, one. – Cottage cheese. – Yay, you got it right. – Yes, I was like, Link’s definitely gonna get this one, ’cause you’re a cottage cheese connoisseur. – Well, it scared me at first. But, hey, actually, the, is that it? – Hmm-mm. – Let me see it. (Rhett chuckles) – Is that it? Is that what cottage cheese look like? Oh, wow, look at that. – And I like it with smelling barbecue sauce. – Yeah. This savory mixed with the cottage cheese. I liked it right off the bat, man. (upbeat music) All right. Bring in the next smell. – I feel like we are in the future. Oh, that’s. – Oh. – That’s a bit wet on my nose. – Oh, that’s some strong stuff. – I don’t know what it is. What it is, what it is. – Oh, I don’t think it would just be detergent. – Is it, is it hazardous? – I think it’s a– – To my nose area? – I think it’s a floral scent to throw us off. Maybe a rosewater? (Stevie moans) – Yeah. It’s nice. Okay. – Is it, do I get points for knowing what we’re smelling? ‘Cause Link doesn’t ever know – No, you get. – what we we’re smelling. – You get exactly one. – It is rose water. (Stevie moans) – Okay. Okay. – From me. – Feed, feed our mouths. – Oh, I just tipped it into myself. – Oh. – Oh. – That’s good. (Link grunts) I like rose. – I’m so scared of this game. It’s crunchy. It’s meaty. – It’s super savory. It’s got a crispy top to it. – But it tastes nasty because it tastes like flowers. – The rose is not complimenting this flavor. – It’s not working. – At all. – [Stevie] Ready to guess? – I think I know what it is though, but– – Okay. – It is not an enjoyable experience. – [Stevie] The whatever we’re calling these things, are leaving a shadow on the Link’s face. And he looks like he has two giant eyebrows. Like a uni-brow. – What about when I do this? [Stevie] Oh, and that’s confusing. – In the future I can multiply my eyebrows. – Three– – I would look at you, but I can’t. – [Stevie] Two, one. – Fried chicken. – [Stevie] Yeah, it’s a fried chicken. – Oh, but it, oh. – You guys are doing great this time. – You okay? – So far so good. (upbeat music) – Before we smell and taste some more stuff. we wanna give you a heads up, something special we’re doing this Friday night on TikTok@mythical. We decided to stay up all night long, write a song together with your help and then record and release that song on the same night. – So we’re gonna make it interactive. You can help write this song, watch us record it, the whole thing should be fun, kinda old school for us. But on TikTok. – Yeah. – Where everything is new again. This Friday 7:00 PM Pacific, is when we’re gonna start posting, that’s 10:00 PM Eastern. Mark your calendars @mythical on TikTok. Let’s see what happens. – Let’s smell the next things. – I mean, this doesn’t make you nervous? I don’t wanna know. – Oh gosh. That one’s literally touching my nose. – What is that? What is it? – I think this is– – It’s like a demonic chip. – [Rhett] I think it is stinky tofu. – Is it? – I mean, or it could be an actual just piece of poop. I mean, it could just be a piece of poop ’cause it smells like that. – I mean, it’s. – It’s a piece of poop or it’s stinky tofu. – Yeah. It definitely smells like toe, – Oh, this is overwhelming. – Toe jam. (Stevie moans) All right, let’s eat. (Link moans) – Ugh. – Keep breathing. – Oh my gosh. – That’s the test, so freaking bitter. – It’s a weird consistency if it is what I think that it is. – Yeah, I know. It’s like. – But I can only imagine. I can only guess, that’s the only flavor that I taste. It’s actually an overwhelming flavor. – Yeah, so we’re both, – A flavor that penetrates past the piece of dooky that’s sitting next to my notes, literally coming in contact with it. – So we’re both saying coffee concentrate. – [Stevie] Oh, you’re bypassing the three, two one? – Yeah, I was just gonna say coffee, like, but it’s been made into a different consistency. – [Stevie] Yeah. That’s exactly it. It’s coffee that we’ve used thickener to thicken up. – Oh gross. – [Stevie] Now you both have the eyebrow thing. – What the crap is this? Is this? This is toe jam? – [Stevie] It’s stinky tofu. – Stinky tofu. – [Stevie] You wanna take a bite? (upbeat music) – Two smeller fellers. Two fellers just smelling. See, I mean, can you see what it is? – Yeah. Is it because you have glasses? That you can’t see the middle of your vision? – It’s just, it’s so close. I can’t see. – It smells like burnt wood. (Stevie moans) – Yeah, it does. – It smells like when those things, we used to make wood art in church and you had to like burn like a Bible verse onto a piece of wood. – What? – You didn’t do that? – What? – You know that. – No, we weren’t doing that over at Jewish day School. – I wish I could go back in time and introduce the Jewish people to other Christian things. – [Stevie] Like burning wood? – We were burning wood. (all laughing) – I don’t remember that. I mean like, you mean like a soldering iron, but you can kinda. – But you know what? They told us it was a Jewish thing. Weird. (crew laughing) – It’s a Jewish thing. You’ll love it. – This is a old Testament thing, boys. – Oh yeah, when you get it. – We’re burning wood. – When you get it really in there, it definitely smells like ash. All right. – I like this smell. – What do we add to this campfire? (link speaking gibberish) I’m scared. – Man. It’s like one of those- – [Link] It’s disintegrating in my mouth. – It’s maybe one of those like smoky cocktail situations. Stevie, you know I was talking about, you know, those smoky cocktails. – [Stevie] Yeah, we didn’t do that at Jewish day school, but I do know what you’re talking about, yeah. – Ugh. – I, again, I kinda like this. There’s, everything about this is something that I’m enjoying. – [Stevie] You wanna guess? – I don’t. – Yep. – Whatever it is, it just tastes burnt to me. – Three, two, one. – Potatoes. – Potato chips. – [Stevie] Dang, guys. – We got it? – [Stevie] You’re so good, you’ve evolved over the past handful of years, yeah, they were soggy. – Yeah, five years of evolution. – They were soggy. – They were soggy, you say, trying to trick us. – Well, look at that. I thought it was like a. – How did they make that? – How did you burn wood? – You just put fire on wood and then it- – You just put fire on wood. – And then it kinda burned it? – Lick it. – Wow. (upbeat music) Sniffy in a Jiffy. Ooh. That’s garlic. – That’s garlic and onion. – Oh. – Yeah. – Good grushes. – I mean. (Stevie moans) – Oh, wow. – [Rhett] So you can’t see that? We might need to get your, like your– – No, I can see that there’s something there. – But you can’t focus. – And I can tell that is. – Know that it’s garlic and onion. – That it’s white. – Maybe I’ve got good close vision. Oh, that’s starting to give me a headache. – Yeah. – Like instantly. – Let’s eat some. (Link speaking gibberish) I hope it’s good. (food crunching) – This is a Very strange combination. – Crunchy. Sweet. Okay. Okay. – This is a very recognizable taste that’s breaking through. – Oh man. But is, my headache is just really going through the, through the roof here. – Three, two, one. – [Rhett and Link] Nerds! – [Stevie] Yeah. – Yes! – You guys had me there. – Oh, get that outta here. – Is this gonna be a, is it gonna be a queen sweep? – Queen sweep? A double queen sweep. Our smell tasting over the last five years. – We needed a five-year break. Has really gone up the notches. (upbeat music) – Okay, we’re all tied up and also perfect going into the final round. – And a bit nervous with this last one, ’cause I don’t know what we’re gonna smell, but let’s smell it. Okay. (Rhett moaning) Is that vanilla? – I think it’s a really concentrated vanilla. – Okay. That’s not bad. – No, that’s actually pretty nice. – So I’m really gonna, I’m really gonna go deep with this one. – Okay, let’s eat. Oh gosh. Oh no. – Vanilla. I’m just, I’m just eating vanilla. I’m just eating vanilla. There’s nothing else. – What is that? Oh gosh, I’m. (Link gagging) – I’m scared. (Rhett gagging) I’m eating vanilla, ’cause that’s what it smell like. (Rhett gagging) – Oh God. Oh no. (Rhett gagging) Oh God. – All I’m getting is vanilla. I’m breathing deeply. – I’m not gonna look at it. – Just like with everything in life. You breathe in deeply. You get the vanilla. – I need a vanilla, – And then you breathe out. (Rhett gagging) (Link gagging) – How is this not getting to you, man? – ‘Cause I’m really going into vanilla land. – How is it not hurting you? – But the problem is, I’ve gone so deep into vanilla land, I can’t even come up with a guess, but obviously it’s horrible. – It’s whole, how do you not understand how bad this is? Please, let me guess. – I don’t. Okay. – Please let me guess. – [Stevie] Three, two, one. – Liver? Liver? – Blood. – [Stevie] It’s blood. – Really? – Gosh, it’s blood, man, it’s horrible. – I’ll tell ya. I mean something about the vanilla really did it for me. – But it’s not coating my mouth in the way that it usually does. – Eh, eh. See now that the vanilla is gone, it’s nasty. – [Rhett] Yeah, it’s not as strong as. – -I mean, next time I go into porta John, they need to have these on the outside of it. You know what I’m saying? – My body won’t let me. – If you’re visiting a phlebotomist. – What did you guess? – Liver, ’cause. – Oh. – I didn’t allow myself to taste anything. – It was way worse than liver. – I gave myself to only smell. – Well, guess what? I win, you gotta smell my tongue. – Well, let me smell it. It looks clean, which is nice. Don’t breathe. Hold your breath. Let me start with this. Not too bad, Rhett. – It’s pretty good? – Yeah, I wouldn’t say it’s good. – I mean, I wash it every morning. – But it’s not that bad. Oh, I’m gonna keep this up here the rest of the day.
