This Halloween candy tournament is about to get fruity. – Let’s talk about that. (gentle, upbeat music) Good Mythical Morning. – Welcome to day two of the 2021 Halloween candy tournaments with an S because it’s plural. When you think of Halloween candy, chocolate probably is the first thing that comes to mind, but we think it’s high time we give the fruity Halloween flavors a proper chance to shine. – I agree. You like all the fruit and candies. What is your favorite fruit flavor of candy? – Red. – I was gonna say purple. – Oh. – So we’re different in that way. – And if you’re thinking that those are not fruits, they’re colors, well, you know what? You’re wrong, but we respect your opinion. – Yeah. – But it is time for the Hexed and Haunted Halloween Haul of 2021 Fruit Candy Edition. (Link cheering) Once again, please feast your eyes on our bracket of frightening, fearful, affordable, and most importantly, fruity Halloween candy. – This bracket represents the top eight fruit-based Halloween candies, as voted on by you. Almost 40,000 of you voted, so it’s on y’all. – The fruity candies we’re gonna be eating today are Sour Patch Kids. – [Link] Swedish Fish. – [Rhett] Haribo Goldbears. – [Link] Jolly Rancher. – [Rhett] Starburst. – [Link] Nerds. – [Rhett] Airheads. – And Skittles. Also, as a reminder, Chase is out this week, so we need a new crew member to take on the role of John Wayne Chasey to control the tournament board. And let’s see who’s gonna step in this time. Or, apparently, hop in. Is that how he does it? Well, the Chase-ter bunny is a different time of year, Carney. – Your email said John Wayne Chase-ter bunny, I think. – No, you misread that. – I am just happy to be here in a character. Not like the norm. (Rhett laughing) Yeah, you could have just been a former Hotdog on a Stick employee, Matt Carney, and we wouldn’t be having this conversation because we’re never gonna argue with that. All right, you do look great. – I like his attitude. – All right. – You know? – Just like yesterday’s tournament, the losing candies from each pair will be placed in the cauldron of witch’s spew, which will come down from the ceiling. There it is. (Rhett mimicking eerie music) And we’ll throw them in there. The winning fruiting, fruiting. – Fruiting. It’s fruiting. They’re currently fruiting. We got them in season. – The winner will be crowned the most handy fruit flavored Halloween candy. – Let’s get fruity. (gentle eerie music) We’re beginning our tournament with two chewy candies, starting with the number one seed with 17,617 votes, Sour Patch Kids, versus the number eight seed with 7,734 votes, Swedish Fish or sweetest fish. – Sweetest. – Now, these are both currently owned by Mondelez International and we do not have any sort of under the table deals with Mondelez International. It just worked out this way that it was Mondelez International versus a Mondelez International. These things happen, okay? – Why do you keep saying Mondelez International? – I have no connections under the table. Your table, my table, anybody’s table, to Mondelez International. – Is it a sponsor? – Mondelez International is not a sponsor. – Then, okay. Let’s start with the Swedish Fish. – [Rhett] Okay. – I just don’t think they can be as good. – Do you know who owns the sweetest fish? – Mondelez International. – Mondelez International. – You love these, don’t you? – Let me just say I do love them. – [Link] Soft and chewy. – I’m not being paid on the side, personally, just in my own personal bank account, my loan out, by Mondelez International to say this, but I love Swedish Fish and I like the fact that they taste fake, okay? Let’s just be honest. It takes like red dye should taste. – Now, Sour Patch Kids. They’re number one for a reason. – What’s that reason? – Because they are sour, they are patchy, and it’s kids. I mean, there’s a lot more of an experience here. You know that when it started, it was men. It wasn’t kids. – Yeah, it was Mars Men shaped like martians to capitalize on the enthusiasm of space in the 70s. They changed to kids in the 80s to capitalize on the sour, not sour patch, garbage pail. No, what was it called? – Cabbage patch. – Cabbage patch kids. Sour patches is better, dude. Come at me. – I love Swedish Fish. – Come on. – I love Mondelez International, but I will say, Swedish Fish, it’s an acquired taste. It tastes like a flavor or a dye. – That would have landed. – (laughing) How about we’re gonna send Sour Patch Kids on to the next round first? – All right. – Chase-ter bunny. Oh, he’s upset about something. Oh, he’s holding a hot dog. – I was told you had notes on my costume. – [Link] Oh, it’s better now, yeah. You have a hot dog on a stick and a visor. (Matt sighing) (crew laughing) – [Rhett] Okay. – See, you’re getting there. Own it! It’s your brand, man. And the Swedish Fish, going bye-bye land. No double tries today. – Yeah, no double tries. (deep growling) – Is that mine or yours? (gentle eerie music) You got the number four seed with 10,321 votes, Jolly Ranchers. No, over here, versus number five seed with almost 10,000 votes, Haribo Goldbears. – Now, even I, a gummy bear lover, would have told you that these were not Goldbears, but gummy bears, but they haven’t been called gummy bears since 1967. That’s before I was born and I was born a long time ago. Because gummy bear in German means a rubber bear and nobody wants to eat a rubber, especially a used one. – This doesn’t taste great, when I’ve put into my mouth immediately. Am I missing something or is that how it always is? – It’s like an alien just discovered eating for the first time. This doesn’t taste great when I put into my mouth. Is this how you eat? You put it in the mouth? Green is strawberry. – The yellow ones are cleaner. – The clear ones are great, I think. I love gummy bears, gold bears, whatever you call them. This is no contest for me, man. I don’t even wanna taste the Jolly Ranchers. – You haven’t even eaten a Jolly Rancher. Jolly Ranchers are a higher seed, so more people agree with them. I’m choosing the green apple and dropping it, which is my favorite. – Do I eat it by putting it in my mouth? – When you put a Jolly Rancher in your mouth, you immediately get hit with flavor. You don’t have to wait for anything. And then you have to wait forever to get rid of it. – It’s a hard candy, though. The gummy is what makes a fruity candy a thing, in my opinion. – I’m not chewing the Jolly Rancher right now. I’m chewing the gummy with the Jolly Rancher chipmunked into my cheek. – For me, any day of the week, the gummy is gonna beat the hard candy. I’m sorry. – Yeah. – If that offends you. – The only thing about hard candy is that it encourages patience. – You’re my best friend. – [Link] You like to do this. – I’ve got enough patience. – You like to do this. – In my life. I get gummy bears. – All right, fair enough. I’m gonna stick with the gummy bear man over here and we’re gonna say that the Goldbears move on. – Here we go. I’ve decided to be happy. – [Link] He’s happy again. Look at that! – Hey! – [Link] Look at that. – All right, bring it down. I’m going for a toss. Going for a toss. Left hand. Oh, no double throws! – So close. No double. (screeching in background) – That’s very realistic. (gentle eerie music) – Quick reminder, tonight is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hang out with us as we broadcast Good Mythical Evening. – Yeah. – It is a ticketed event that is adults only. Chock full of things you’d never be able to get away with on YouTube and that you never thought we would ever do, say, smell, taste, or think. goodmythicalevening.com. – Wow, you’re moving things around. – It’s not too late to get your tickets. Going out tonight, 10:00 PM Eastern, 7:00 PM Pacific. goodmythicalevening.com. Be an adult. – Be an adult! – Be ready. – All right, we got our next contenders. The number three seed with 11,967 votes, Starburst, versus the sixth seed with 8,308 votes, Nerds. – I got a special place in my heart because Starburst was one of our first- – First sponsors. – Sponsors, but it’s not currently a sponsor, so we’re gonna crap all over it, if we have to. – (laughing) Well, they were originally known when they came out in 1971 in the UK. – [Link] Okay. – [Rhett] As opal fruits. – The individual wrapping. – You can eat it with the wrapper, though. – Then it wants to jump out your hand. – You can just eat it with the wrapper. I’m not doing it, but. – It’s not as good. – The best flavor, the strawberry pink flavor. – Get yourself some of these Nerds, though, man. – Nerds, please. – There’s some grape. I’ll take some grape. I just love these things, like the sound they make in the box. – Yeah, it doubles as a musical instrument. – The crunch they make in your mouth. If you forget your maraca, just bring Nerds. – I love these, man. These are a clear winner for me. They’re tangy. They’re playful. They got a nice little mascot on them. You can mix them together and if you get the bigger boxes where the things open like that. – The double, the double. – Release the hole, like show the hole, like reveal the hole and then you dump, dump, dump. That’s just fun, fun, fun. – Hey, Good Mythical Evening is tonight, man. Watch yourself. – The Nerds are moving on. – I agree with you because Starbursts have never really done anything for me, sorry, except- – Hit it, Hot Dog on a Stick. – This is great! Who’s gonna win? It’s a nail biter. (crew laughing) – [Rhett] Too much enthusiasm. – Yeah, too happy, which means the Starburst goes in the witches’ cauldron. – (laughing) Wow, you turned and looked and missed. (child screaming) (gentle eerie music) – Coming in at the number two seed with 14,551 votes, we’ve got Skittles versus the number seven seed, with almost 8,000 votes, Airheads. Cherry. – I’ve never been much of an Airhead guy. – Watermelon. Blue raspberry is what I’m gonna choose. – But you know there’s also the white mystery flavor. – Oh, is that in there? – Hate to burst your bubble. The way they find the white flavor is just it’s whatever’s left over at the manufacturing process and they just are like, we don’t have to put food color coloring in this. Let’s just make them all blue raspberry and, you know. – That’s genius in marketing. I love it, Airheads, and I love the vibrant colors when you do use them. – It feels like something that could have been a Starburst, but then they just decided to not worry about shaping it. – It’s more of a taffy, less waxy. Not as tasty as a Starburst. – I would say significantly more waxy and also worse. Like, not as much flavor. – We do agree that the flavor is lacking. – It could be a candle. It could be a candle. Could you make a candle out of Airheads? – And then we’ve got Skittles over here. This is originally from England. Take you some and then they were imported into America in ’79, after a 1974 British invention. I don’t wanna eat that yellow one. I gotta eat a purple one. – Why do they keep putting yellow in things? – If a Skittle is found missing the S that’s supposed to be printed on each one. – They kill somebody at the factory. – No, it is destroyed. – Skittles are so much better. – Yeah, they are. – [Rhett] All right. – Airheads, you’re trying too hard. – I actually think you need to try harder. – Skittles is moving on. Smack it! (Matt grunting) – [Link] Yes, straighten that up! – Yeah, don’t worry about lining it up. – Later. All right and give some air in the Airhead, man. – I’m gonna look right at you. – Yes! – Yeah, did it go in? – Yeah, that’s great. Yeah, definitely. (growling in background) (gentle eerie music) – All right, first semifinal match up. We got Sour Patch Kids versus the Haribo Goldbear. – And look, they’re to long and tall. – And flat. They won’t roll off anything. I dropped a water bottle in my driveway last week. – Your driveway? – Rolled all the way down the driveway and then it reached at least 61 miles per hour, as it went down the driveway. – He’s got a steep driveway. He has a steep driveway. – I’m sorry. I believe it’s in the ocean now and I feel horrible about that because I don’t believe in littering. I don’t even really believe in plastic water bottles, but I could not catch up with it unless I was a cheetah and I’m not. – Yeah. – It disappeared. – If you were a cheetah, this would be a different show. It’d be me and a cheetah. Think about that. – And it’d probably be on Animal Planet. – That’d be awesome! – Cheetahs are actually very docile and they don’t even have retractable claws. They’re always out like a dog’s. – I’ll be dang. Listen. These Goldbears are like unsoured, unpatched kids. – I’m partial to the Goldbears, but the sour patches of the sour-ness. – Yeah, you’re really getting in that patch. – Every cheetah’s favorite candy. – So the Sour Patch moves on, just for clarity. – Sirs. – [Link] That is nice. – [Rhett] There you go. – And then the Goldbears are going in the cauldron. – Oh, so close! (groaning sound effect) That was somebody sucking in. (gentle eerie music) – Nerds versus Skittles. – Nerds, man. Takes me back. – [Link] A sixth seed. – [Rhett] First of all, I appreciate a box. – We need more boxes in our candy lives. – In a little box, at that. This might be the smallest box that can- – Just spilled it. – This might be the smallest box that candy comes in. – So tangy. – Nobody’s getting killed at the Nerds factory. – [Link] So crunchy. – I mean, every little mistake is embraced. – The thing was Skittles is that don’t you feel like there’s- – They’re too big, next to Nerds. – And it’s kind of like it’s masquerading as an M&M. – I think I heard some audible groans. (crew laughing) – I love Nerds. I don’t hate Skittles. – I think the reason everybody likes Skittles is because of the commercials. I think they actually have never really actually tasted. – Yeah, the marketing is legitimately quacky. – Let’s just be honest. – Crazy. – Nerds are not known for their marketing, but they should be because they’re incredible and they’re moving freaking on. – And there’s so many of them. – [Rhett] Nerds, you’re moving on! – Hey, we agree. I don’t know who you’re siding with. – [Rhett] I mean, they got a crunch. – [Link] Do you agree with that choice? – That’s crazy, man. (Rhett laughing) – Have you tasted them? They come in boxes and it’s beautiful. – You won’t see some crazy? Skittles’ going away. – Oh! – That looked like it was on. – Yeah, yeah. (eerie growling) – Yeah. (gentle eerie music) – The final two fruits, Sour Patch Kids versus yes, Nerds! – The Mythical crew is really laying into us about these Nerds going through, but you and I are totally on the same page. – Have you had them? They’re crunchy and they- – [Stevie] Yes, we’ve all had them. – Tangy, crunchy. – [Stevie] Everyone has had them. – They’re like rocks. – [Stevie] We’re all so also disappointed right now. – They’re like little rock candies. – They’re like flavor bombs, man. – But open one of those because that’s also a flavor bomb. – [Rhett] Yeah, I mean, Sour Patch Kids are great. – Neither one of these hold back. This has got the tanginess and the crunch. This one’s got the chewiness and the sour. – But Nerds come in a little box. Did we talk about that? – [Stevie] Don’t you dare. Don’t you freaking dare. (Rhett laughing) – Sour Patch Kids are great. – Put a Sour Patch Kid and a Nerd in there. – Nerd encrusted Sour Patch Kids. That’s a good idea. They need to mate. – Nerds got ropes. You seen those? – Yeah, I love the sourness here. I’m still going for the Nerds and I’m not doing it just to do it. I’m doing it because I believe in it. – I can’t go there with you. – I love Nerds, but I’m a gummy man at heart. My heart is probably made of a gummy. I’m donating my body to science and they’ll probably put it on that website that sells the big gummy stuff. What is that? – I can’t hear you when I’m chewing. – We won’t mention them. So we’re gonna have to send this over to the Chase-ter bunny. (laughing) – John Wayne Chase-ter bunny. – Tie-breaker. – Come on over. – So these are Sour Patch Kids. – I’m just gonna keep hopping out here. I don’t want this hate. – Do you want grape or do you want strawberry? Grape or strawberry? Grape, grape is better. – Okay. – All right. – Pour it right in the box, right out of the box. – [Link] Dump it. – [Rhett] Yeah, there you go. – See, look at that. You didn’t even have to touch it. That’s an advantage there. – That’s a lot better than I remember. – Yeah, you all forgot. You all forgot about Nerds. – Are you smart? Nerds became cool, like, I don’t know. – Did you guys mention the box? – They started running- – Yeah, a little box. – They started designing algorithms and stuff and now everybody’s life revolves around what nerds have made. – Yeah and that’s likely the smallest box that candy comes in. – Chase is missing out right now, man. – Yeah, yeah. It’s children, though. Is there a moral conflict here? – Okay. I’ve made my decision. – Oh, you’re gonna walk over? – This is quite a reveal. – This has never happened before. – [Rhett] What’s going to win? – Nerds. (Rhett laughing) – [Stevie] No! Matt Carney! – I kind of forgot that we put in his hands the entire tournament, but now that you agreed with me- – Hey, I don’t feel bad about that. Those Nerds are good and he raised it. – [Link] They’re crunchy. – Go try a Nerd. – They’re smart and they’re a little scary looking. – That means the most handy fruit flavored Halloween candy is yes, you guessed it, the Cinderella, Nerds. – There you go. And that means the Sour Patch, going right in here. Oh, crap! That would have been a great ending.
