GMM 2604: Can We Find The Name Brand?

Are name brand sauces worth the price? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. Sauces are often the most important accessory to a food. Accessory? Yeah. In fact. What about accessories? Is that how you say it? I mean. Accessory. I think you can say it either way you want to. You’re an accessory to a crime. A sauce is an accessory to a food. Can we go to the judges on this? Yes. Accessory. In fact, sometimes all I want is a sauce. So it’s not an accessory. It’s the main. Give me whatever dipping vessel you have lying around. Don’t believe me? Give me a bowl full of honey mustard and a lead pipe, and I will prove it. He really will. I’ve seen it. But whatever your favorite sauce is, one question always applies. Do the big brand name versions really taste any different than the cheaper ones on the bottom shelf, or are we just buying things for the name? It’s time for Knock-Off Knockout Sauces Edition. Okay, wankers, can you spot the brand name sauce from the generics? First up, you’re tasting steak sauces, and you’re looking for A One steak sauce. Yeah, I always do this whenever I order A One at, like, the. Into the mirror? Like this. Oh, is that not right? Into the mirror. There we go. That’s right. Yeah. One A. I think I can recognize this just by looking at it. Yeah, I do think that it’s dark, and this one’s lighter, well, these three are dark. Are we fingering? No, we’re. We’re spooning, man. There is an order to these things. You have to spoon before you finger. A One. A One. A One. Am I going to do it? Am I going to trash talk A One? No, don’t do the middle aged guy thing where you talk about how people who put A One on steaks don’t understand steaks and then say, well, but my wife loves to do it, and then throw your wife under the bus. Don’t be that guy. I’m keeping you from being that guy right now. But it’s so hard not to be that guy, because A One, it kind of masks. It masks a really good steak. And my wife, she just cannot, she can’t help herself. But I’m not gonna say it. You did it. But you know what? As a sauce. Worcestershire. It’s a pretty good sauce. Just as a sauce. Well, how are the sauces that you’re currently tasting? These taste the same. This one is peppery. This one was good. This one has palpable pepper. I just like what they’re doing with these sauces these days, you know? What do you mean, these sauces? Like the fact that A One is still successful enough that there’s at least three rip offs of it? You like that? I just think whatever they tried to do with A One, except that last one. What is wrong with this one? It just tastes completely different. It tastes like. I don’t know. It tastes like you ate a Christmas tree and then you vomited the Christmas tree. I am ninety. That’s what this tastes like. Ninety-four percent confident. The vomiting of a Christmas tree. Ninety-four percent confident. Link, you ready? I am ninety. Lincoln Valley Ranch. I’m ninety-five percent confident. Frank’s Rhett Hot. Three, two, one. There it is. We cannot be wrong. If two men are ninety-four and ninety-five percent confident in something, it is one hundred percent right. You heard it here. The A One steak sauce is in bowl number two. Yeah, that’s right. The others were Target Market Pantry, Walmart Great Value. Good. But different. And Vons Signature Select. Scary. Real bad. Next up, we have wing sauces, and you’re looking for Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing sauce. Kids, I like to welcome you to sex education one-O-one. Our first lesson is sperm comes in all colors. What? What? What actually is that supposed to be? Can we have a spokesman from the art department? What’s that supposed to be, Lucas? If you’ve got orange sperm today. Oh, that’s hot. Is it red hot, though? It’s the reddest one up here. But this is the hot wing sauce, not the normal sauce. Ooh, that’s buttery. Ooh, you’re right. That’s so buttery. You said this is specifically wing sauce? So much better. Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing sauce. Buffalo Wing sauce. Buffalo Wing sauce. Buffalo Wing sauce. Buffalo Wing sauce. Buffalo Wing sauce? This one has palpable pepper in it. I can see it. My man can spot palpable pepper. It’s very orange. That’s good. Yeah, that. I mean, I don’t know how the first one could even be called wing sauce. I would just call it hot sauce. Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh. Is this. Is this the bad spot again? It turned. Oh, gosh. It tastes like plastic. I think it’s been leached, you know? It’s been in a leaching situation. Okay, I know which one is the best, but which one is the Frank’s Red Hot? I got a lot of respect for Frank. Yeah. Yeah. I believe in him. So, I’m choosing the one that I think is the tastiest. Are you? I’m choosing the one that has something that I thought that I knew about it. But not your favorite? Nope. Okay. Three, two, one. Yeah. So, is this your favorite? No, this is my favorite. What? But that’s not even wingy. Because it’s mostly just hot sauce. My observation one time in the past is when I had a buffalo wing sauce, which I think was Frank’s, is that it had a noticeable buttery flavor. And so that’s the only reason I chose that one. I don’t think this is the right color. Based on what I remember the package looking like. This kind of looks Hooters-ish. Yeah. Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce is in bowl number one. Yeah. Yeah. The others were Vons Signature Select brand. Better. Walmart Great Value brand. Different. And Three Six Five Whole Foods. Scary. Next up, we have ranch. You’re looking for Hidden Valley. I think it’s time to. Welcome to Sex Education two-O-one. Oh, there we go, Lucas. This is nothing to be ashamed of. It’s just a carrot. This is nothing to be. I didn’t say anything. I’m not ashamed at all. I didn’t say anything. No, I. No, I’m talking about the carrots you’re not in charge of the carrots. You’re in charge of. He did call you out. The front of the board. But he. He called. He’s calling you out. They really look more like tadpoles now that I’m. Now that you’re out here, it’s more tadpole-ish. Yeah. You afraid of Lucas? Yeah. I mean, but, I mean, can you tell me? I guess that’s what. Yeah. What is that? What is that? What’s the one that you have a problem with? Which one looks most like? Come on. All right, you’re dismissed. You’re dismissed. We learned our lesson. Now, we totally learned our lesson. These wankers learn their lesson. I should have never called him out, Link. Ranch is not bad, no matter where you find it. But. One of these is better than the other. This one has palpable pepper. Yes, it does. You didn’t say anything about it, because Lucas was out here talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he said it. Such a short yet powerful word. This one’s thick. It’s the thickest and palpably pepper. You can make your own ranch. Saw it on TikTok. Well. Okay, so I’m trying to figure out. I’m just licking the. I’m just licking. Oh, you’re doing a lick daddy? But I’m switching out. I mean, I’m not gonna complain about three out of four of these. It’s hard. This is a hard one. That is not easy. Okay. I’m four percent confident. Three, two, one. Yeah, I mean, this was. This was really a toss up. Hidden Valley Ranch is in bowl number one. Oh, look at us, Rhett. Palpable pepper. Should have known that. Who are we? The others were Target Market Pantry, Vons Signature Select, and Walmart’s Great Value brand. But this is scary. I mean, it really. There is something a little. Why y’all putting the scary one there? It’s not horrible, but it’s not right. It’s the twenty-four hour window for May’s Pin of the Month. Happy cotton candy day, daddies. Hey, Randy. Hey, Randy. Always a pleasure to join you at the desk. You wanna hear a sweet nothing? Yes. This year, for my birthday, I wanna suck the moisture out of your gym towel. Oh, fun. Hey, Link, I heard they’re gonna write a story about you in the newspaper. I don’t wanna spoil what it’s about, but it includes the phrase remains found along the lonely highway. I can’t help but notice that you were strategically holding this the whole time. Yes, that’s right. It’s the Veloci-Randy Enamel Pin. Available for only twenty-four hours. It’s a soft enamel pin with a decorative card backing, and you can get it at mythical. com So this is a version of you as a? Yeah, as a velociraptor. Get one and all your friends will say, you’re a clever girl. Remember that from the movie? I get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Did you guys see that? Yeah, a few times. Great flick. Well, thank you, Randy. Yeah. Okay. See you later. Thank you. Bye, daddies. I kind of feel good about making money off of, you know, his IP. Well, you should. That’s kind of the idea, isn’t it? Okay, it’s chocolate syrup time. Of course, you’re looking for Hershey’s. Chocolate syrup. I should really finger this. No, don’t finger it. It ruins it for everybody else. Mainly me. Me. Me, me. When your friend wants to finger your sauce. If I don’t know this one, I’m gonna be embarrassed. Welcome to Sex Education three-O-one. Okay. I mean, we are double dipping, but we’re just. Yeah, but fingering is different. Oh, this has got a different viscosity. It’s thinner. Or as Link says “visocity”. Same. Same taste, but thinner. This one looks a little bit darker. Now, you use a lot of this right, in your chocolate milk? Well, I used to, yes. I’m more of a powder Nesquik guy, if I’m really going old school, though. Something about that. This one don’t love it, but maybe it’s, once you. I think they’re all pretty tasty, but there is one that is distinctly different, distinctly nostalgic, both in texture and taste, and unless my mind’s playing tricks on me, I am eighty-two percent confident. I’m pretty confident, too. I’d say I’m ninety percent confident. Three, two, one. Rhett, you have never been more wrong in your life. That is. That’s actually the worst chocolate syrup. The Hershey’s chocolate syrup is in bowl number four. Dang it. What is this? Hershey’s. I should’ve fingered it. Stevie just said it. The others were Great Value from Walmart, Favorite Day by Target and Kroger brand. Here’s where you went wrong, Link. You’re not wrong that it is the worst tasting syrup on this table. Hershey’s is not good chocolate. It’s just not good chocolate. But it’s very distinct. It has this very. I don’t. I can’t even really describe the back end flavor to it, but to me, it was just very, very obvious. These other ones are better, and you went with the one you liked the most, didn’t you? Didn’t you? You liked it the most. I liked all of them except for that one. That’s where you went wrong. I’m embarrassed. Gotta pay attention in class. Last but not least, we have mayo, and you’re trying to find Hellmann’s, and I’m very nervous about whatever you’re gonna say about this round. Nothing. I’m not gonna say anything about this mayonnaise. Mayo is just, what? Egg whites and oil? Egg yolks. Egg yolks, not the whites. I got it backwards, because it is white. That’s what confuses me. I’m using the fry. What are you? Belgium? Belgium? I am the country, yep. A lot of people don’t know this about me, but I am Belgium. Small country, big man. It all works out. Ooh, that one’s tangy. This one’s pinker. This one is super pink. This one is like. It’s just. It’s very. It’s the best coloration. When you say pink, do you mean slightly yellow? What do you? Well, this one has a. I think your shirt’s bouncing. I’m feeling like this one has a pinkish quality. I feel like the fries are leading me on. Look at those right beside each other. See? See how this one’s pinkish? It’s got a. It’s way warm. Yeah. Has more of a. Why are you still back there? Because I didn’t, I fry the first one. Did you say Hellmann’s? I did. Why’d you say that? Why not Duke’s? Well, Hellmann’s is the best selling mayo in America. The second one tastes like fish. I thought it was in my fries. You ever eaten Miracle Whip and thought that it was mayonnaise? That’s scary. Oh, that one tastes like horseradish. What, this one? This one? Yeah, I’m already done. Ooh. But I’m still going. Why am I just eating mayonnaise? I like it. I don’t know. I don’t know. Maybe I’m Belgium. All right, I’m going for the one that I like the best. Me, too. I mean, there’s no other way around it. Three, two, one. Yeah, that’s my second favorite. Those were definitely the best. The bookends are the best. The Hellmann’s mayo is in bowl number three. Oh, the one that tasted like. What did we say it tasted like? It’s the worst. Horseradish. Horseradish. So the first one is Target Market Pantry. Then you have Whole Foods Three Six Five. And the fourth one is Walmart. That’s your second Walmart loving sauce, Link, in a row. He loves Walmart. And, Rhett, you’ve pulled off the win for the game, which means that you get a lost in the sauce poster featuring yourself somewhere, and Link, you lost, which means you get nothing. Right. I do want to amend my statement. This isn’t bad. It’s just more tangy, which maybe that’s a good thing. I’m in this? Did you find yourself, Rhett? Right there. I’m so little. There he is. Belgium is so small. Hard to find on a map. Thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. You know what time it is. Hi, I’m Charlie from the UK, and I’m about to do a hot sauce taste test.
