Today, the street food Eat-lympics continue. Let’s talk about that Good Mythical Summer. We’re about to usher in our second day of searching for the world’s best street food. Today we meet our final rounds of savory competitors, which will all culminate in the medal ceremony at those very Eat-lympic podiums. Wow, look at those podiums. And look at that flag just waving magically. Oh, no, it’s Chase! I’m back. I’ve never seen him so active. Look at that, Hilt. There he is. He’s so athletic. He should have been on the flag team. He’s flexible, too. Well, as they say in the Olympics. Let’s. No, no, no, no. They don’t know. They don’t say that at the Olympics. It’s time for the twenty twenty-four Summer Street Food Eat-lympics Savory Event. Day Two. Okay, boys, just like day one of the Savory Event, there will be three heats of street food dishes which qualified to be here based on their scores in these eye catchiness, mouth wateringness, novelty and ingenuity and untapped popularity. You’ll both score every dish from one to ten. And as an official reminder, the current savory leader is the gamja hot dog from Korea with a score of eight point two. And Eat-lympic representative, Chase, told me that he has been training to step in as an alternate judge today in case of an emergency. Chase, what do those? Oh, that is what that preparation looks like. That’s tongue training? I don’t understand the arm. The arm part. The arms help me remember what the tongue’s supposed to do. Yeah, right. It’s a correlation, not causation. Yeah, that gives me. Which dish and country will take home the gold? Let’s find out. Today’s first heat includes the top savory cheese food qualifiers. Beginning on Rhett’s side, we have a kashkaval pane from Romania, which is breaded and fried semi-hard sheep’s cheese. I spent a summer in Slovakia. That could also be the name of my memoir. And I’m not lying to you when I tell you that four to seven times a week, I would go to a place and this would be a part of it. I know it’s not Romania. It’d be a part of your place? It’d be a part of my place. It’d be part of the plate. They eat so much fried cheese. I used to. I was like, oh, it’s chicken. And then I, soon I learned, no, it’s always cheese. And was it always sheep? Because that’s a certain type of cheese right there. It was different kinds of cheeses. Sheepy cheese is sheepy. Good, though. It’s almost sweet. Pretty nice. But I’ve been there. I’ve done that. Chapter thirteen in the memoir. It’s a rough batter. Am I right, Nicole? It’s a little crispy, a little crunchy. Like it? Rough batter. Now, tell us about this. Oh. We’re going to rank. We got to be good judges. We’re deciding we’re going to go ahead, eat, and rank, and then move. That’s what we decided. It’s solid. It’s good. It’s pretty plain. It’s just a brick of cheese. Let’s be honest. It looks like a building material. Look. And, I mean. That’s the beginning of a house, Link. I don’t love the sheep cheese as much. Oh, well, that’s why there’s two of us. I’m going to give it a four point nine. Wow. Okay. That’s harsh. I’m gonna give it a five point nine. Okay. Okay. Next you have pão de queijo from Brazil, which is a baked cheese roll. This cheese bread. Brazilian cheese bread. You can get it in the frozen section of your local supermarket. What? You can get it at the Fogo de Chão. Yes, you can. I just. There’s something so special about this stuff. It’s so doughy. I would think that you would absolutely love the doughy nature of this. I do love it, though. I can’t tell where the cheese ends. Exactly. And the bread begins. It’s so unexpected. What’s unexpected about it? It just looks like bread. You think it’s bread, and then you realize it’s cheese bread. And you can walk with it, grab it on the street, and walk. You know? I could probably catch it. I thought you were gonna throw a big one. But you didn’t. Throw a full one. See, you can catch it. I knocked my own glasses off my face. I should have brought Chase over for that. That almost put my. I’m ready. Yeah. Listen, I’m not the. All right, Chase, you ready? On the fork. It was close. It was very close. Man, there’s very little left to eat now. Again, I’m thinking about the Olympic scale of things. It’s like this. I’m recalibrating, right? This is not just the cheese round scale. It’s the overall scale. Eight point zero. Good gosh. All right. I just really, really like it. Seven point two, and that’s. That’s really good. I feel like. That’s a good showing. It’s a good showing. Oh, I’m pushing the board. And finally, we have deep fried cheese curds from the US. From the US. Expected to be the top medal winner. I mean, okay. I mean. when the American judge judges the American athletes. They have to set aside their Americanness. So we need to not be very American during the tasting of this. We need to not be very American. I do not know about America. I’ve never been. I’ve never been to America. What is this land you speak of? I’m from Transylvania. Very crunchy. Very crunchy. It’s so good. I popped two already. I’m trying to figure out, is it better? In some ways, it’s better. In some ways. It’s not as good as the Brazilian. It’s versatile. Oh, it’s so great. I gotta give it, I gotta give it a seven point nine. Seven point eight. Because I wanna keep eating it. Seven point eight. I love it. I just feel like I can’t. I can’t let my bias show too much. Is the cheese round over already? This next heat includes the top savory wiener qualifiers. Beginning on Rhett’s side, we have a tunnbrödsrullen from Sweden, which is a flatbread topped with mashed potatoes, two hot dogs, shrimp salad, fried onions, ketchup, and mustard. I’ve been told we’ve had this before. Twice. Shrimps. To give you an idea of how much we don’t remember, we had to be told that. Now that I’m seeing it, I still don’t remember. Shrimp on a hot dog. What would I have said the last two times I ate this and forgot? That’s interesting. Shrimp on a hot dog. Never had that. The mashed potatoes is quite an interesting choice for the texture of it all. I like the taste. I love the taste. The crispiness of these things. What’s the crispy things? Those are fried onions. I like it. It’s very different, you know? Yeah, it’s notable. It’s notable. So much so that we need to eat it three times to remember that we’ve had it. There’s nothing I don’t like about it. I don’t think it’s as portable as some of what I see over there. Yeah, okay, that’s true. Things are falling out, but the things that fall out are the things that you eat first before you start street walking. Seven point six. Does that make me a prostitute? Well, you can walk the streets and not be a prostitute, Link. Most of them are online. I’m gonna give it. I’m gonna give it a. Instagram, in fact, quite a bit is what I hear. Seven point seven. You talking about our DM’s? Not our DM’s. Between the two of you. The DM’s that we’re involved in. Stevie, keep up with the latest in prostitution news. Yeah. Through our DM’s. Yeah. What did you give it? I gave it a seven point seven. Okay. You have a galette-saucisse from France, which is a buckwheat crepe wrapped around a pork sausage. Buckwheat crepe. What? What are the other crepes? What are the other crepes? They’re not all buckwheated? From France, you say? Did you know that each Olympic medal this year will be infused with iron from the original Eiffel Tower, which was built for the eighteen eighty-nine’s World’s Fair? I did not know that. I was never told that. Multiple times. So they can add things to this, but you didn’t? Yeah, we kept it classic. We kept it pretty simple. I mean, because you can add that stuff. Does that impact my? Yeah, because you would. Just because a gymnast can do a certain flip, if they don’t do that flip, I’m not judging them on it. I’m judging them on the flips that they did. Raise a good point, Link. And that this right here in front of me is a bit raw dog. It is. But it’s very holdable. I love the philosophy of this. Very firable. I think it’s actually easier to eat a wiener that’s wrapped in a crepe than it is one that’s wrapped in a bun. And does a buckwheat crepe give you fiber? Because I’m interested in that. Probably, yeah. Lower my cholesterol. Raising my fiber. These are the things on my mind. Seven point four. Grams of fiber in every buckwheat tortilla, crepe? What is it? I’m a little unwowed by this. Five point nine. Still tastes good, though. Lastly, in the wiener category, you have a Montreal hot dog, or steamé from Canada, which is a hot dog with mustard, chopped onion relish, and fresh coleslaw or plain chopped cabbage. This is very Carolina dog without the chili. Yeah. If you replace the relish with chili, we will be in Carolina. But now we’re in Canada? That’s the only thing that takes you to Canada? That’s the difference? Okay. They call it a steamé, because it steams, I guess. That’s a very classic hot dog. What kind of wieners are these? I don’t remember where I got them from. I think I got them from canada.com Canada.com I think it’s dot gov. They’re popping. They have a nice pop to them. It’s a great hot dog. But it’s just a hot dog. Am I gonna write a, you know, am I gonna write a chapter in my memoir about it? I don’t think so. Yeah. It’s good for what it is. But. I don’t even think I’m gonna mention it. Four point three. That feels like I’m hurting for the hot dog. When you give it a four point three, that’s like one of the acrobats. I want to make sure. Missed the vault and broke something. A four point three. I’m just saying. Just on the Olympic scale. That’s not my scale. Five point six. And how’s Chase doing? I’m good. You’re still training? My jaw muscles are strong. Actually taking bites, small bites, so I can really figure out what the taste is. Right, find out, ready? One, two, three, four, five, six. Okay. Yeah, we. But we didn’t need you this round. Yeah, we didn’t even throw you any food, Chase. Okay. I’ll be ready for the next one. You gotta just stay on top of your game when you’re an Olympian. Gotta be ready. An Eat-lympian. For that opportunity that may never come.

It’s all at mythical.com All right, let’s tater it up. Okay. Last savory heat includes the top savory potato qualifiers. Beginning on Rhett’s side, we have the patatje oorlog from the Netherlands, which are fries topped with mayo, peanuts, satay sauce, diced raw onions, and sometimes ketchup. Okay. That peanut sauce on fries, have you done that before? I’ve never. You know, the peanut butter boys will get excited about that. Yeah. I mean, peanut butter, onions and mayonnaise. What a strange trifecta. Oh, it really works, doesn’t it? It really does. Because the peanut butter is sweetified in a way that goes with the onions and the tanginess of the mayo. Man. That might be. This is. This might be the best french fries I’ve ever had. What? I mean, they’re really good. I think I, can I say, that I think I like them more than Animal-Style? You can. Is God going to strike me down? I mean, I do miss that biggest slab of cheese on it. But peanut butter boys, we can’t. We’re not gonna hold back. I feel like Rhett’s gonna go with a big. I’m still eating it, too. Oh, no. Do I hear a eight point seven? Oh, my God. I did. I said it. Eight point six for me. Wow. They’re good, y’all. Dang. Hey. All right. They have no business being as good as they are. It’s like. I’ve had to stop myself from it. Yeah. Can we move on to the next potato dish, or do we need to linger? We can. Okay, okay. This is viazi karai from Kenya, which are boiled potatoes dipped in a mixture of eggs, coriander and wheat flour and then deep fried. Okay. That’s great, as a side. I really, really do love the taste. Extremely starchy. Mostly just potato in the middle. What you got against skin, Kenya? What y’all doing with your skin? They’re really good. They’re a little bland, coming off of this right here. Five point zero. Somebody just hit the triple Salchow over here. Well, that’s Winter Olympics. What’s something you can do in the Summer Olympics? Somebody just put their shot. Yep. They put that shot so hard that I come over here and I say. They put it right in the spot. Six point one. Okay. Okay, and finally, we have patatas bravas from Spain, which are fried potatoes served with a spicy tomato sauce. Show me your patatas. On the street. Tomato sauce. Spicy. It smelled a little weird, but it tasted good. These are good. Because, yes, I don’t like tomatoes, but I love tomato sauce. A little unexpected. Chase, how you doing over there? I’m good. You’re not training anymore? Look alive, Chase. Do you need me? I mean, maybe I might throw you a fry or something. Okay, okay. Oh, you know, I’m gonna throw you one of these tatas. Well, I’m throwing you one. That was the tata. I’m throwing you the one from Kenya because it’s the least. It’s gonna go right in your mouth. You got it. What happened? It hit his tongue. It hit my tongue, but I’ve been training my tongue in my jaw and my teeth and lips have, they’ve been skipped. I’m gonna give these a six point one. These are growing on me. Six point six. Six point six. This right here. Oh, these are real. And with that, all of our savory event scores over today and the last episode are together and united. So let’s turn to Chase, our Mythical Eat-lympic official for the prestigious medal award ceremony. Taking home the bronze with a score of eight point zero five, representing France, it’s French taco. And receiving the silver with a score of eight point two, representing the Republic of Korea, it’s gamja hot dogs. Yes. Yes. Yes. And that means that the first ever gold medal winner in the Mythical Street Food Eat-lympics, with a score of eight point six five, representing the Netherlands, is patatje oorlog. Wow. The peanut butter boys. We couldn’t resist ourselves. Couldn’t resist. You sounded Italian, but that’s okay. Yeah. We’re gonna be back on Friday with our final day of the Street Food Eat-lympics.
