Today, we’re expanding our street food knowledge. – Let’s talk about that. (gentle music) – Good Mythical Summer. – And please welcome singer, rapper, dancer, fashion designer, record label founder, international superstar, and all around lovable goofball, Jackson Wang. – Yes. (crew cheering) – Hey, this is Jackson Wang. – What do you not do, man? – No, I’m not really good at it, I’m not, it’s just like a- – Come on. – Come on. – Well, how good are you at trying to get people to try new foods? – I might have a dream, I want to be the co-host of this show. – Oh, okay all right. So this is your audition. – Oh, cool okay, again. – You gotta replace him, right? – Good Mythical Morning. – I love it. So whoever loses this game, Jackson is gonna replace. – Yes. – So now the stakes have gone a lot further up. – Wow. – Because we’re gonna be tasting food from your childhood growing up in China. We have to guess if it’s truly from there or somewhere else. – Yes. – You ready? – I’m ready. – You hungry? – Yes. – I’m hungry. – It’s time for, Trying New Street Foods But Can We Guess Where They’re From? And can Jackson Wang help us or will he scoff and call us bums? – All right, in each round we’ll be served a dish and then Rhett and I are gonna have to guess, like I said, if it’s a street food that Jackson grew up loving in China, by guessing Chinese, or not these. – That’s a good one, that’s a good one. – Okay so Jackson- – Thank you. – Your job is to convince us that their dishes when you enjoyed it as a kid in China, even if it’s from somewhere else, okay. – Where did your jacket go? – No, I just took it off ’cause I felt like too. I want to be like t-shirt. – Okay. – T-shirt boys. – All right. – I mean, you wanna hang it up? You want to I mean- – It’s cool. – Like if it’s all right, I’ll put it over my shoulder. – Yeah, yeah. – Just kind of just like, yeah, just like. – Oh yeah. Look at that. (crew laughing) – Well, that’s nice. – All right, if we get the majority correct. We’re actually working together, and we did that so there’s no way that Jackson could replace one of us. – Smart. – But if we get the majority correct, then we get to perform a flip with Jackson because we know that you’re amazing at flips. – A little bit. Yeah, I do a little like tricking. – It’s wild. – Is it? – But yeah, I’m ready to do one with you. – A cartwheel? – Eh. – No? – Let’s just see what happens, man. (nervous laughing) Kalyn, why don’t you bring in the first dish? – All right. – And be sure to tell Jackson what a big fan you are. – No. – Oh what? – Don’t lie to me right now. – That’s crazy, that must have been someone else. – Come on now. – Oh my. – Well let’s have a conversation. – Oh, oh. (crew laughing) – Thank you. – [Kalyn] Oh. – Should we open this? – You don’t know what that just did for her, man. – Yeah, I think she- – That was a big moment. – I don’t think she wanted to acknowledge this. – Do you know what this is? – This looks like a candy coated strawberry. And that is a freaking huge strawberry. – You call that bingtang hulu. – Bingtang hulu. – Bingtang hulu. – Yes, bingtang hulu. You have that sugar syrup. – From your childhood? – Yes, from my childhood. – So your job is to convince us of that. – That it’s a Chinese food. – Even if it’s not so. – Honestly, I don’t know. – You’re doing a good job. – Honestly, I have no idea. – Are you a good liar? – My mom told me that it’s Chinese food, so I believed it, right. So, and- – This is tricky. – It’s like candy apple – This next level mind tricks right here. – Oh, wow it’s totally like a candy apple. – What did you call it? – Bingtang hulu. – Bingtang hulu. – Oh my God. – Hold on, did you get your brain? – Dude, – What do you think? – It could not have come closer to stabbing the back of my throat. – How the heck did that happen? Why did you push so hard? – Dude, I don’t know, I almost died just then. – No, you’re not supposed to, you’re supposed to eat it gently. – Well, thanks for telling me now. – As if you’re like having a kiss. – You’re not supposed to stab. I don’t understand how like. – No, no, no, no, no, no. – It went into the back of my throat. – But why? I don’t understand. You’re trying to push it into your mouth? I don’t get it. – No I was biting it? – You didn’t even finish this one. – I’m showing what I did, I’m reenacting it. I bit the end of it like this and when I chomped down on it, the stick went up into my brain. – Imagine you’re having a kiss, like a kiss, Right, yeah. – [Rhett] That true. (crew laughing) What part of this- – Oh, you can eat it like that too. – What part of his wife’s body is that? – This is actually my shower wall where I practice kissing. – It’s really good. – Right? – This is so much better than a candy apple Jackson. – So Link we gotta work together on this. I’m still kind of shaken up. – The additional detail that Jackson threw in there about, “my mom told me, “you know, that I enjoyed this as a kid.” To me that lends credence to it. – Yeah, I think this is Chinese. – I agree. – All right, so we’re saying Chinese. – Chinese. – You just had bingtang hulu, it’s Chinese. – Okay, all right. Okay great. – Yes. – Wait, did I just give it, it’s too easy? Is it too easy. – No, no, you’re just, I mean, you just told us the truth and I- – Until I see you lie, I don’t know. – Yeah right, I didn’t sense any falsehood in you at all. – The next one I’ll try to do something with it. – Okay, well we’re gonna find out. Kayla, now come on in. There’s no reason to be nervous just because you’re a massive fan. – Listen, allegedly. – Just admit to it. – Allegedly, okay. – You’re a fan. You speak Chinese, speak some Chinese. – Oh, you speak Chinese? – Show off a little bit. – Yeah, yeah just a little, I mean. (speaking Chinese) – Oh my God. (speaking Chinese) – It’s happening again. (speaking Chinese) – Okay, Kayla. – Okay. – All right Kayla, we gotta do our jobs here. – Later. – Okay later. Oh, that was a line she memorized? – Wow, no, no I think she- – No, she speaks Chinese. – She speaks all kinds of stuff. – She speaks all types of stuff. – Yeah, yeah, yeah She full of surprises. – We don’t you. – You’re wearing the jacket now? – It’s yeah, I’m loving it. Oh my, we’ve got some sort of egg. – This is called cha ye dan. It’s called like tea egg. – Is it from a chicken? – Of course. (crew laughing) – I mean, it doesn’t look like a chicken egg. – No, it’s like the color. – But if a chicken egg comes out like that, you gotta take that chicken to a chicken doctor. – It’s like food coloring. – Oh, it’s added. – Yeah, it’s added on. – Okay. – Yeah, smell it, it’s like real good. – Yeah, it smells like a egg. – It’s fragrant. – Is it? So it’s tea? It’s teadified? – It’s like boiled eggs and then you put it in the hot water and then with some soy sauce and tea. – And you’re making all that up, you’re lying to me right now. – No. My mom told me that. – Okay, you keep, he’s blaming his mom. – Maybe a specific memory as a kid that you associate with this, like oh yeah? – Do I just bite it? – Don’t do what you did with the bingtang. – Don’t stab yourself. – None of this. – Like just eat it like how you would eat a egg. – Yeah. – And then. – It’s like a boiled egg with a little bit of, – [Rhett] Yeah. – Little bit of a tea flavor. – Thank you, oh wow. I mean, you don’t have to do that. – This is a full service episode. – You got some something. – I think he’s trying to suck up to you after lying to your face. – You think he’s lying about it? – [Link] He doesn’t know what this is. – No, if you say I’m lying, then I’ll say my mom was lying. – I’m not afraid to say your mom’s a liar. – Mom, you’re lying, mom. – Your mom’s a liar. – Okay, I mean, first of all, it’s very good. I mean- – He had a lot of details- – Taste like a slightly salty boiled egg. – You like it? – Why is it cold? – Oh. It’s supposed to be hot. – He’s expecting it to be hot. – Oh my God. – I’m just trying to return the favor. (crew laughing) – So I think this is- – You didn’t even have anything on there. I mean, I’m just being polite. – I think, because he said, “Why is it cold?” It’s supposed to be hot. He’s either a master deceiver or he is telling the truth. – They also call it like the dinosaur egg, you know, because of the pattern here. – Oh, wow. – See that’s good detail. – You totally just made that up. – He’s lying. – My mom, not me. – His mom’s lying. – Are you sure dude? – I think so. I think he’s lying. – All right. – I’m gonna say, Not these. – Not these. Are we right? – You just had Chinese food. – Again. See, he’s being sincere. – Okay. – He could be a horrible liar, we haven’t experienced it. Yeah, but I mean, okay, so we should trust you from here on out. – My mom, trust my mom. – He’s always deflecting. – Kalyn still not, it’s not clear if she’s a super fan or not but I’m pretty sure she is, is back with another dish. – And you know what? – Has the jacket on. – I actually forgot, there’s a very important legal document that we forgot to get your signature on. Do you mind signing? For our lawyers of course. – A very important legal document that says “Important document.” – Yes, yes. We just need your signature on there and make sure to make it out to Kalyn. K-A – Okay. – [Kalyn L-Y-N. – [Rhett] Make this legal document out to Kalyn. – Yeah, we have a lawyer. – You know how they work. – But don’t write her name over the legal documents part ’cause I think she’s gonna probably cut that off. – [Kalyn] K-A-L-Y-N. Yeah, that’s great. We have a lawyer the same name, it’s really rare, but. – Kalyn – It just happens. – Kalyn I think we’re gonna have to update the, every round. She’s getting what she wants, another hug. All right. – You’re not getting paid for this episode you realize. You’re getting all payment you deserve. – You have yet to lie to us. – Oh, it smells good. – This is fish balls. – Fish balls. – Fish balls. Those are big. – You know what, you never see a fish with balls it’s because they cut ’em off and put ’em in this lettuce. – No, what balls are you talking about? – Testes. – Testicles. – Oh, no, no, no, not that balls. – Oh. – It’s fish meatballs. – Oh. – Yeah like- – Balls that’s made out of fish meat. – I know about these ’cause I’ve had ’em in soups and whatnot. Just eat it with my mouth. – Yeah. Put this on top. – On top. – Oh, you gotta get the little, a little- – Put it like a little scallion. – [Jackson] You probably want to tear like a piece of this to eat it like a combo. – Oh really? And they call it the triple X in the- – Triple X? – Like triple three, like triple three, like one, two, three. – This is good. I don’t mean to offend you ’cause I know you’re lying to us, this is not from your childhood in China. – It is definitely, my mom confirmed. – You know, your mom really should be here because you keep throwing her under the bus. – I mean, as a kid, you know, you just eat whatever your parents give you, right. – Fish ball, sure mom. – That’s a good fish ball. – Man it’s so good. Do you dip it at anything? – You do it with the combo. – The triple X. – Triple, yeah. (hissing) – Okay, what was that? – That was just a little. – Triple X is a movie. – I’m experimenting with some things because you’re a lot cooler than he is. And I don’t normally hang out with people that are cool and so I’m just- – At least you’re admitting that- – I’m adding something- – You’re trying hard. – I can’t even do it. It was just my brain wasn’t even working, it was just like a spur of the moment thing. We’ll have to watch it back. – Jackson, tell us some more lies about how this is from your childhood. – No, no, not lies. Honestly, my mom it’s like she- – Gave it to you. – Told me about this combo. Like how the grandparents- – She called it the triple X? – Yes, she said that her mom told her, like the grandparents, it’s like a- – So this is generational. – Since like the Song Dynasty, like back in like ancient times, this is how everybody ate. – Triple X, you mis-stepped with that one. You should have stuck with your mom. – But sometimes you put it like on a stick and you eat it. – And then you stab yourself in the roof of the mouth. – Okay. – And then you do this. – All right, he’s saying put it on a stick. Jackson, I’m not changing my answer. – I don’t believe him. Not these. – Not these. Where are these from really? – You just had Chinese food. – No what? – Okay, it’s not the dynasty or whatever, it’s just fish balls. – Okay. – It’s fish balls. – Okay, all right. – We keep thinking that you’re gonna lie to us and you’re just telling us the truth this whole time. – I’d really love to see you lie one day. – I mean, what’s the point of this game? (crew laughing) – All right Kalyn, let’s see our next street food item. And of course, do you have anything else you wanna get signed, autographed, whatever word you want to use? – No, I’m just here to drop off the food and go. But actually, while I’m here. (speaking Chinese) – Talking about you being tall. – The set was amazing. – Okay. (speaking Chinese) – Me? No, not us. – She just pointed at me and I said something. (speaking Chinese) – Talking about your thing you’re known for. – My signature moves. – Oh. – All right, and of course. Okay Kalyn. I hope you’re happy. – I’m happy. – I’m confused. Oh, look at these. These are like little tacos. – [Rhett] Is that a taco with some. – [Jackson] No, it’s not. – Why don’t you explain it? – You want me to? – Yeah, yeah, yeah. Instead of us just keep saying things. – Remember this from your childhood? – [Jackson] It’s called the blanket. – The blanket? (foreign language), it’s called (foreign language). – [Link] It looks like a blanket. Is it supposed to be folded like a taco? – Yeah, no you eat it like rolling it up. You have to roll it. – Oh you roll it. – Yeah, yeah. You have to roll it. – You roll it up like a little- – [Rhett] And what is that inside? – In every city and every province it’s different. – Oh, that’s like marshmallow fluff. – Yeah, you’re supposed to eat it like in one bite. – Oh, sweet. – Like this. – This is good. Oh, just get in there. – This one my mom didn’t tell me. Okay. My dad. (laughing) – Oh, okay. – What did your dad say? – My dad said eat this, oh, it’s very good for men. – Oh. Very good for men. Oh you got a little. They really got a thing going. (hissing) (laughing) Two of them. – We touch, this is a. – I’m a little jealous. – It’s like ET, I mean hey. – It’s cool. – You got it, you know what I saying? – Dad said it was good for men. – That’s what I was thinking as I was eating it. – You’re a man. – This is good for me. I’m a man. – It’s good for the hormone. – The testosterone? – Muscle and like immune system too and everything. – But are you picking up on any lying here? – Okay, here’s what I’ll say. We’ve sucked this, he’s been great. We’ve sucked, we were wrong two outta three times. However, he changed his strategy, suddenly he’s bringing his dad into it. – Right. – It feels like maybe he’s just lying now. – See you, sometimes you just think too much, man. (crew laughing) – Maybe he’s incapable of lying. Cause he hasn’t lied in previous rounds, right? – He hasn’t. – But a second ago when I went and then we touched fingers, something felt a little off. (crew laughing) Yeah, see if you can feel it. Hold on, he gave you the opportunity. – I don’t feel like I can get in on it. – Yeah, that’s good. – It’s really your thing. – Yeah it’s our thing. You’re right, you’re right, you’re right. – Let’s make our thing. – Elbows, all right. (laughing) – All right he’s lying. – He’s lying. – This is not these. – Not these. – You just had not these. – Okay. – We got it right. – And you lied. – [Mindy] This is a Thai street food. – Bringing your dad into it that’s when you- – [Mindy] Called khanom bueang or Thai crepes. And it’s a rice flour pancakes, and meringue and candied egg yolk. – I’m sorry. – Good for men. – I’m sorry that I lied about the hormones, and the man, and my dad. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – And that was very elaborate. Okay, so we finally got another one right. – Okay it all comes down to this round for the flip. – Yeah, this is a heavy dish so I needed a little extra help from- – There we go. – A very special person named Mindy. – Hi. – Hi. – Hi. Yeah, I know, I know. Oh my God. – Yeah. They’re not fans at all. – This was not approved guys. Mindy shows up helping. – Thank you. – Thank you, thank you. – Not protocol. – I’m sorry what just happened? – I don’t know about what just happened. – They’re not fans at all. – Oh before, let me introduce this is- – Okay. – A dinner dish. – Not street food. – Not street food, yeah. – [Link] Okay, we’ve got some sort of a soup. – Yes. – Which explains this. – He’s dangerous, even with spoons. – Oh this is called, okay maybe take a sip first. – Oh we got a spoon for. – Drink it like this. – Oh you drink it like that? I can do that. Oh, okay. – So nice. – So nice. – Childhood, it tastes like childhood. So this soup is called the fish head soup. – Oh, is that what I was tasting? – Yes. – But the fish heads are like filtered out ’cause I don’t see any in there. – Did that come out of a fish heads? – Yes. Yes. Oh no, this is tofu. – Okay, good. – Where’s the fish head? – Oh. So this is all the- – That’s everything that was in there. – That’s fish heads. – Yes. – That’s not unappetizing in any way, it’s actually- – It’s pretty good. – Very inviting. – It’s just kind of like a broth almost just like a sea food broth. – Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you get the broth. You want some of that? – Very nice. Yeah. – Okay. So you seem to really be enjoying this, you’re tapping into your childhood. He hasn’t mentioned his dad. – Yeah, who told you about this? – I told myself. – You wanna bring your dad into this? – I told myself. – You told yourself about it. – Yes. – You found this one. – ‘Cause back as growing up, going to school, you know, we always go across this restaurant, we always pass by. – Okay. – And they’re famous for making like fish heads soup and I would always, you know, grab one. – What do they do with the rest of the fish? – That’s their business, you know, I’m just buying, I’m just ordering the food, I don’t know what they do in the kitchen. – Good answer. – Right. (hissing) – He got me there. That’s their business. – I’m torn on this one, man. I’m right down the middle with believing him and thinking he might be lying. I lost some trust there in the last round when he started talking about his dad. – Okay, I’ll be serious this time. This is really good for men. (laughing) No, no I swear. – He says but this time- – I swear. – He’s bringing out this good for men again? – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – That was definitely a lie last time. – I swear. – He didn’t bring his dad into it but he did bring men into it. – School life, that restaurant that is not my business. – Yep, I remember that, that was a good story. I think this is real. – It’s real. – This is Chinese. – Chinese. – Gave out too much information. You just had Chinese food. – Yes. – Hey, we got it. That’s three outta five. – We have won the majority. That means that we won the flip. – Yes. – You ready? – And let’s do it together. – Let’s do it together. – All right okay.
