Today we’re tasting every birthday flavored snack for Rhett’s birthday. Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. And happy Rhett’s birthday, Rhett. What? It’s my birthday? Today. Today. I don’t keep up with that mess, man. Forty-seven. That’s a good sounding number, I think. Prime number. I’m in my prime. I’m not old. I’m forty-seven. So you’re not feeling great about it? I’m trying that on for size. Prime number. I’m in my prime. I’m really trying to make myself believe it. Okay. Do I seem convinced? What about if you ate every thing that was flavored like birthday cake? Would that help you sound more convincing? That’s a prime idea. It’s time for Gut Check: Birthday Flavored Snacks Edition. Gentlemen, today we’ve got twenty-seven birthday cake flavored snacks for you to taste in order to determine which is the best of the birthday bunch. All right, twenty-seven, forty-seven. Thank you for my scoring aid. It’s Rhett opening presents themed, which, well, it’s, you know, it’s always been me. Yeah, but it’s my birthday. It’s your birthday, so I’ll let it be you. You know, I hate gifts in bags. Don’t ever give me a gift. Apparently, when you get in, when you’re the gift, you get really happy. Real, real happy. Now, my scoring aid. It’s a birthday cake. It looks like this is hap burt. Hap burt? And it looks like somebody has had their way with this cake already. As you can see, right in this region, someone has really iced ice. Oh, and look at this. Is that a finger swaft? Look at that. Look at that. There’s one right there, too. Did you just do that one? Well, I don’t know how to feel about this, but let me taste it. Pretty good, though. Hap burt, Rhett. All right. I do like icing. Let’s get to it. Okay. In case you need a palate cleanser to help tackle all of today’s sweet treats, we’ve provided some bitter black coffee for you. Yes. Our first category is cookies and candy, starting off with Birthday Cake Oreos. The birthday cake part is in the middle. Now. I haven’t tasted it yet. You don’t like birthday cake. I don’t really like birthday cake flavored things. I do like birthday cake, but I gotta say, a cookie is very cake like already. And so that actually was so much better than I was hoping it was gonna be. Is it that much better than an Oreo? Yeah, it’s very birthday cakey. That’s a seventy-nine. I like it. But not having eaten a normal Oreo next to it, I’m like, this is just as good as a normal Oreo. Which I guess puts me at a. It is pretty different though. Sixty-five. Do I eat the cake after every bite? Yeah. Yeah, yeah, you should. Pepperidge Farm Birthday Cake Soft Baked Cookies. That’s a lot of words, Stevie. I do think that today’s gonna come down to texture for me. I mean, it all tastes the same. This is also good. And that’s a doughy cookie. They mix well together. I like a doughy cookie, because I like a birthday cookie. Eighty. I’m gonna give it a seventy-seven. I’m having such a good time already. Happy birthday to me. Happy, hap burt. Three six five, Birthday Cake Sandwich Creams. Sandwich creams. What? That’s a crispy cookie. That was hard to get through. Why don’t I like this? Because it tastes. It’s not good. The birthday cake flavor is not good. It tastes like fruit punch. Was hard. Ten. Twenty. Quest Protein Birthday Cake Cookies. Oh, you know this is gonna be horrible. Oh, wow. It’s big and fat. It’s like a smushed cake pop. Let me tell you, that’s better than a typical protein snack, but. Okay, yeah. On the scale of the things that we’ve been tasting, it’s not great. It’s a forty-seven. Good gosh. That means I almost like it. Fifty is I’m indifferent. That’s my scale at least. Twenty-four. Mavericks Birthday Cake Bolt Cookies. Maverick? Give me a second to get my birthday cake down. Is it. So it’s an animal cracker? I mean, if you consider a bolt an animal. A what? Bolt. B-O-L-T. I don’t understand a bolt. It’s like a lightning bolt, I believe. Like a hardware store bin. There’s nothing. There’s nothing here. But it crunches. This is like if you wanted someone to eat but not know that they were eating. The more you mush it in your mouth, it gets a little cake battery, which takes me back to when my nana used to make cakes and I would. I’d lick the bowl. That brings me up to a. That’s a very distinct memory of childhood that no one else has. Well, just cause you don’t have a grandma doesn’t mean you need to make me feel. I had a grandma. I have three of them. But you never visit her. They’re all dead. Well, when they were alive, you still didn’t love them. I did. In fact, I think I loved them more than you loved yours, because mine was just a grandma. What do you mean? What was mine also? A dental assistant? She was more than just a grandma. That’s right. That’s right. She was like a grand mom, really. And she’s still alive? Right. She’s a great lady. She gave a speech when we were there in North Carolina. Do you remember that part? Well, yeah. Yeah. She seemed to be just as thankful for me as she was for you. She did kind of lump us in together. And then say that her other grandkids didn’t make nearly as much money. Yeah, I wasn’t gonna mention that. They just happened to be sitting right next to her. Okay, score it. Eighteen. Annie’s Birthday Cake Bunny Grahams snacks. Why people gotta spend so much time on the names? So it’s like a Teddy Graham, but it’s a bunny? Eighty-eight. Okay, well, you didn’t. Why? I didn’t hear what you were eating. Because it tastes great. It tastes better than birthday cake. It has a light, airy texture, and it’s a bunny. That’s the trifecta for me. I thought that it was weak. Did you have you scored it? He’s eating the cake to try to think about what? I know. Thirty-eight. We kind of have to go fast. This is like. It’s my birthday, man. It’s a gut reaction to these things. It’s my birthday. Birthday Cake Kit Kat. Yes, Lord. Why am I tasting garlic? Let me smell your gloves. I think it’s on KG’s hands. It’s not me. Did you eat garlic last night? No. No. You smell. You smell good. I don’t know. You really messed me up on that one, though. Seventy. Yeah, that’s good. I’m gonna give it a eighty-seven. Well, I had to filter out the garlic that I experienced, but it wasn’t from the Kit Kat. What is that? Garlic? Let me give you the highest score I’ve ever given. No, second highest. I know you gave something an eighty-eight today. I can separate two smells in my mind. Lindt Lindor Birthday Cake White Chocolate Truffles. So this is going to be Lindt. That’s a big piece of Lindt. I just got the whole thing. That’s so creamy. Did you get the whole thing or half of it? Half of it. It’s so rich. I tried to get half of it, and it just stuck to my teeth. It is so. It’s battery. It’s buttery. Ninety. It’s almost too much, though. Oh, it’s so good. I had a whole one. I really need the palate cleanser. Yeah, truffles are made not to snack on. You just get one. It’s a little present to yourself. Yeah. She bangs. As Ricky Martin said. Eighty-eight. He sure did. Hershey’s Birthday Cake Bar. Why is there a fruitiness? Well, birthday cake flavor approaches a fruit flavor, but then backs off. This crosses over into it. This went too far. It tastes good, but the fruitiness is. I’ve been lied to. I feel like. Fifty-one. You know, thirty-five. Gotta B’ Sweet Birthday Cake Cotton Candy. Gotta B’ Sweet. This feels like too much. I think it’s better than normal cotton candy, so I’m gonna give it a fifty-one. Fifty. Jelly Belly Birthday Cake Jelly Beans. Okay. Been here before. Excuse me. Sorry. Thank you. What is that taste? So weird. Fakey flavor. It’s almost like. Like if cinnamon, like, used the bathroom. And then you went in there afterward, and had to, like, fish it out. Well, when you say cinnamon, I picture a horse. No, if two sticks of cinnamon took a crap and then you ate that. That sounds like. I didn’t want to have to say that. I mean, a horse poop sounds bad, but cinnamon taking crap, that’s just, like, more cinnamon. Well, but it’s not birthday cake. I don’t like it, though. Thirty. I kind of liked it. Thirty. Birthday Cake Dum-Dums. Okay. This is gonna take a while. Clock wipe. Seventy-four. Fifty. And that concludes the cookies and candy category. Of course, we all know that that was our slowest category. And this next category, we’re going to really speed up. You gotta speed up, birthday boy. Here’s the thing about being forty-seven. Gut Check. Just keep going. Don’t listen to it. You gotta stretch it out. So. Every second I’m one step closer to the grave. This next category is bars and crunchy snacks, starting with Annie’s Birthday Cake Crispy Snack Bars. I got so much Dum-Dum on my teeth right now. What is this? It’s a Rise Krispies Treat, man Why didn’t they just say that? Because it’s not Rice Krispie brand. Very dense. Is this healthy? Annie’s always trying to make stuff healthy. Oh, God. Yeah. Twenty-two. Twenty-five. Tastes horrible. Tastes like a thrift store. Fiber One Birthday Cake Bars. Hey, forty-seven. It tastes, if somebody in a dungeon made a Pop-Tart. It’s a little tough. Little dry. Add some liquid. Add some liquid. Seventeen. Yep. Fifteen. Quest Birthday Cake Protein Bar. Okay. What? We just need to. What? Is it melted? What happened to it? It was like a PowerBar consistency. It’s like something we’ll eat in the future. It’s not quite liquid. Quite. Not quite solid. Very, very bad. Nineteen. I’ll be chewing this until I’m forty-eight. Do you need a clock wipe? Give me a clock wipe. Twelve. Madegood Chocolate Drizzled Birthday Cake Granola Bars. I gotta get that out of my mouth. Madegood. All right. This is real low point in this episode. This granola. This is horrible. Protein, fiber. I mean, you shouldn’t have done this on his birthday. Look at him. Look at him. You’ve made him miserable. What are you trying to do to me, huh? This better turn around. Fourteen. Twelve. Drizzilicious Birthday Cake Rice Cakes. Oh, God. Just because you call it Drizzlicious doesn’t mean it’s good. Oh, God. It’s not bad. It’s actually not bad. We’re coming out of the doldrums. This is like tasting a shadow of a food. Yeah, right. Nothing there. Forty. It’s not. I mean, it did nothing. It’s a fifty. I’m right in the middle. I’m unmoved. You ever been eating at a restaurant? Creative Snacks Co. Shadow. Birthday cake Yogurt Covered Pretzels. It would be a fun thing to do at a fancy restaurant to serve somebody a shadow. You can have what they’re having. You can have the shadow of what they’re having. It’s cheaper. You can have the shadow of what Michael Bolton is having at his table. We did dine at the same restaurant. We dined next to Michael Bolton once. At The Ivy. Oh, it’s not bad. It’s not bad. But I’m just so scared now. Fifty-five Forty-seven. I’m feeling a little sick. Forty-seven. That’s his age now. I knew it would happen. I am not that old. What are the chances? Natural Endurance Birthday Cake Protein chips. If I’m about to eat something and you start with Natural Endurance, I know I’m in for a treat. See my. Protein chip. It’s a chip? It’s a sweet. We can’t ruin everything. It’s a sweet chip with protein. This is just like the baby that comes from this threesome. Natural Endurance. Is really ugly. We’re on a mission to ruin all your favorite things. You know what? It isn’t that bad. It’s not that bad. Yeah. Why is it not that bad? Because it’s still a chip. Once I got rid of the. Yeah, once you realized it was a chip. Sixty. Forty-nine. Pork King Good Birthday Cake Pork Rinds. Somebody’s out there doing that. Poor King is. Don’t make my savory stuff sweet, especially with birthday cake. Yeah, it’s. You ruined it. You took something nice and made it bad. Twenty-one. Thirty-eight. The Safe and Fair Food Company Birthday Cake Popcorn. Y’all gotta come up with an acronym or something. What are we gonna call our company? Well, we’re safe. What else are we? Well, we’re pretty equitable. Well, we’re fair. All right. How about we just be both of those things? People will line up in droves to eat our foods because they know. We’re safe and fair. What did we just have? Popcorn. Popcorn. Birthday cake popcorn. Sixty-nine. One hundred minus fifty-five. No math man. Don’t start with the math. Forty-five. Birthday Cake Loaded Cereal. Okay. Who makes this? Oh, this is very reminiscent. Very specific. What cereal is it? You’re the cereal guy. I can’t put my finger on it. What is that cereal? Crave? No. It is kind of like a Crave. Guys. But it tastes like something. Guys. She just wants us to give. Seventy-one. Sixty-five. Bocce’s Birthday Cake Crunchy Dog Biscuits. Okay. Okay. I’m getting the dog biscuit part. Are you getting birthday? No, you know. Maybe dog birthday cakes taste different. No. Here’s the thing. Dogs don’t know what birthday tastes like. And humans don’t typically consume their dog’s food. And how would you explain it to them? How would you explain that to a dog? So then they don’t. They don’t do anything. They just make it taste the same. Then when humans on the internet try it, they realize that it’s all a trick. It’s all marketing. There’s a tinge of cake. Really? I think so, yeah. I’m gonna give it a sixty. I think it’s great for a dog biscuit. I wish it was actually very birthday-y. I’m gonna give it a sixty-one. That concludes the bars and crunchy snacks category. The final category is miscellaneous. Okay. Starting with Kodiak Birthday Cake Protein Balls. How do you like your protein balls? This tastes like something somebody’s grandma made. Homemade. I like it. It’s peanut buttery. Like, it tastes like a peanut butter ball you’d get at a family reunion. I love it. But there’s not a lot of birthday to it. And there’s protein. I’m still gonna give it an seventy-seven. Seventy-four. Melba’s Fixins Birthday Cake soda. Melba’s. That’s gross, dude. Ooh. Bad. It tastes like if you’d been dipping your paintbrush in a bucket of water. And then eating it. And then you got thirsty and realized that was all you had. That’s what I imagined it would taste like. Twelve. Fourteen. Pinnacle Cake Flavored Vodka. Yes, please. Little strong for you? Eighty-two. I don’t like it that much. Forty-nine. I like that you had to stretch. I had to stretch to really think. I know. Dough Ball Birthday Cake whiskey. Whiskey. Yes, please. Whiskey. Now, this one actually carries the birthday cake flavor really, really strong. Oh, and it is thick. Oh, man. I mean, I swallowed it seconds ago. You saw me do it, and I’ll tell you, it’s right here, right now. Oh, you need help? Yeah. Help me. Help. I don’t know how, but. Yeah. Yep. Just give me the. This is pretty good. Seventy-four.

Okay, we’re about to give you your top four birthday flavored snacks to try again and crown your favorite as Mommy’s Best Birthday Boy. But first, here are your individual favorites. Rhett, yours was the Lindt Lindor Birthday Cake White Chocolate Truffles, and Link, yours was the Annie’s Birthday Cake Bunny Grahams snack bars, and the truffles. And your collective least favorite was made girl, made girl. Madegood Chocolate Drizzled Birthday Cake granola bars, and Melba’s Fixins Birthday Cake soda. And here are your top four, in no particular order. Pepperidge Farm Birthday Cake Soft Baked cookies. Yeah. Lindt Lindor Birthday Cake White Chocolate Truffles, Birthday Cake Kit Kat and Dough Ball Birthday Cake whiskey. Oh, and I like that celebratory. It’s got a dog on it. Didn’t even know that. Whiskey. Oh, look at that. This is. It’s very. Whiskey. This is a good. You know, I like a softy, and it’s got the. It’s got the sprinkles. White chocolate chips. That’s a really solid cookie. Or maybe they’re cake batter chips. And it’s very reminiscent of cake. It’s like. Almost like somebody took a cake and smushed it down. Smushed it. This is like. This is like a little birthday present to yourself, man. It’s so. It’s so rich. I want. You want to eat half of it? I’m going to save this one. Oh, you want to eat it after me? I’m going to eat. I’m going to eat the Kit Kat, which is. It’s just beautiful. No garlic. The Kit Kat is not impressing me. Kit Kat’s no Lindt Truffle. Nope. Or the cookie. We’re getting rid of the Kit Kat. Kit Kat. Bye bye. And then we’re gonna take a little bit of this whiskey. Dip my whiskers in some whiskey. Hey, man. Birthday boy. I don’t have peripheral vision. Sorry. That’s why I was making noises. Here’s to you. What was the first one? You were making the type of noise that I didn’t want to turn and see what you were doing. My grandma taught me that. She said, if you ever get your whiskey and your buddy’s about to drink it, the first thing you do is. This is not as good as I thought it was. Now that I haven’t had vodka right before it, that is what I had right before. It’s a cute little trick. But I’d rather have whiskey and cake. Not whiskey cake or cake whiskey. You know what I’m saying? So we’re putting this at number. Dough Ball goes to number three. This is super, super special, but I feel like it’s mostly an icing experience, whereas this is, like, a full cake experience, and it’s not cake. This is something to write your grandma about. I’m deferring to the birthday boy, but he made the same decision that I would have made. So that means that Mommy’s Best Birthday Boy is Pepperidge Farm Birthday Cake Soft Batch cookies. Here we go.
