GMM 2910: We Tried EVERY Food In The Bible

We’re tasting every food in the Bible. Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. In case you missed it, last night, woo, we had quite a little time on “Good Mythical Evening.” Some might say that our behavior was a little sus, maybe even sinful. Mm. So this is the idea to make up for that. Yes. We are going to be eating our way through the Bible. Yes. It’s time for “Gut Check: Every Bible Food” edition. Okay, boys, today you’ll be given 27 different foods mentioned in the Holy Bible to taste and decide which is the best of the best. And in case you need a palate cleanser, we’ve got some pre-sanctification Holy Water for you. Your first category is Bible meats, starting with goat. Great. 27 of these, huh? Maybe I shouldn’t have eaten that whole thing. I’m having a tough time. I don’t think it was made in the tastiest way possible. I’m gonna have to give- I quite enjoyed it. I’m gonna have to give it a 10. I’m gonna give it a a 54. There’s only 27 foods in the whole Bible? Well, we’re- Amazing. It’s the top 27. We wanted to leave room in case this episode did really well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Lamb. Okay, all right. I’ll take a smaller bite this time. Hmm. Lamb. That’s good. Lamb’s like a sheep. It’s a baby sheep. Don’t bring it up, though. Well, I mean- It tasted pretty good. 68. What? It’s just meat. It’s just meat. But I’m tasting it and I’m giving it at 15. Okay, okay. Well. Venison. Venison is deer. Okay. And where was that in the Bible? It’s a little gamey. 38. This one’s better. Now I’m at a 41. Oh, well, hey, look at that. You came around. Yep. With some deer. Wrap it in some bacon. Well, I don’t know if they could do that. Right. Calf. Calf. Glad you said calf, ’cause I thought you said cat and I didn’t remember that passage. Calf is like- Veal. Beef. Beef? Yeah, it’s a baby cow. Oh yeah. Veal. Veal is beef. I actually like the venison a little bit better. 71. 71? It’s just meat. 40. Oxen. Oh really? What? We got a hold of a oxen? Somebody’s serving up… Well, I guess you could eat like oxtail. Oh man. In soup. Oh man. Oxen, where have you been all my life? Oh, stringy. Great in a stew. It’s very brisket-y. Mm-hm. Pull your wagon all the way to the kitchen, you know what I’m saying? 86, 86. It is very good. You’re having to convince yourself, I can see. 80. Wow. Sheep. Okay, sheep is an adult sheep. Oh. Oh. Hold on a second. Why is it so… Oh man, that’s not great. Pull it. Hold it tight. Hold it tight. That is tough, boy. Like real tight. That sheep’s been through somethin’. This is why they give you lamb, ’cause this is what happens to a sheep over time. After it’s shorn so many times, it gets tough. That wasn’t great. I’m gonna give it a 27. I’m gonna give it a 20. Hey. Fish. Fish. Heard of it. Ever heard of it? Lots of people fishing in the Bible. Lots of fish being eaten in the Bible. I think these are all things that were consumed. Just because something appeared in the Bible- Yes, correct. This is something, people actually consumed fish. That’s not a great fish. That fish is horrible. But I’m gonna judge it on all fish and I’m gonna give it a nice solid 70. I’ll give it a 64. Partridge. Oh. In like a pear tree? What is a partridge? Hold on. That’s the 12 days of Christmas. That’s not actually in the Bible. What’s a partridge? A little chicken? I’ll tell you, it’s a oily bird right now. Mm, it’s kind of nice, though. Thanks for not seasoning anything at all. Well, they didn’t have seasoning in the Bible. Well, they probably did, but- Yeah, they did. Frankincense and myrrh. Maybe at certain times. I mean, some salt. There’s a little salt on there, right? Yeah, there’s a little salt. I bet you partridge could be good. It just wasn’t. I think it’s pretty. 61. 47. Pigeon. Oh, a pigeon. Pigeon? Like in the park? Look at how little it is. Is this a local pigeon? Stop moving it. Just be still. It’s flappin’. This pigeon tastes like it’s been eaten out of the bird lady’s hand. Which of course, you know me, I do that- On a regular basis, but- The bite I got is really good. I’m giving this a 86. Oh re… My man likes pigeon. I like pigeon. Well, gimme some more pigeon. I don’t wanna leave him hangin’. It was working. I gotta get to the good part. Pigeon is like a park chicken. I don’t like it as much as partridge. That’s from… 60. Sorry. Quail. Heard of that, too. Quail. 63. I think that’s like a 60. Decent. Dove. Dove? What? The bird of peace? How did we get dove? I think it flew onto the Ark. Oh, that’s good. And then what? They ate it. It was like the sign that the floods were receding. Oh, now that’s bad. Oh man, it got real bad. It turned a little livery. 48. And you still gave it a 48. Mine, I didn’t get any liver and it was okay and I’m gonna give it a 47. Yep. And that concludes the meat category. Thank God. Literally. Bible meats. Our next category is divine foods, starting with fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Hold on now. Should we eat this? We’ve already eaten it. I think- We’ve all eaten it ’cause when Adam and Eve ate it, we ate it by default. Oh, y’all went with fig, huh? Okay, so yes, it’s often thought of as an apple, but many biblical scholars believe it would have been a fig, so that’s what we have for you. It’s more interesting than an apple. Hold on. I’m naked. Actually. I’m not naked, and I feel good about it. You’re happy that you’ve got clothes on. I’m so happy I have clothes on. Now we will surely die, but we were gonna die anyway. Figs are good. We’re gonna die clothed. We have to rate this. That might be worth it. 77. 70. Miraculous flour. Miraculous flour? What do you mean? What… Well take a bite and see. Oh. I love it. I’m making dough in my mouth. It’s happening. It’s like when you bite into a powdered donut. Oh. It happened. I think it’s over. I didn’t like it. It made me feel good, though, having that light shined on me. But it was just flour in the mouth and even if it was miraculous, it’s still at 21. I quite liked it a lot. Straight flour? It made a biscuit in my mouth and I love that. I’m gonna give it an 80. Miraculous oil. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Here we go again. Oh, I like that. When the oil empties, the oil fills back up. Right. Mm. Oh. You never give out. That’s really nice. The more you bestow upon someone, the more is returned to you. That is a good feeling. 81. 77. Which is a perfect number. Yep. Manna. Good old manna. Now I always wondered what the manna might’ve been. What’d you go with? Popcorn? So experts describe it as small droplets like dew that settle on trees and have a sweet taste, so this is a tree sap. It tastes like gum. It’s good. If bread from heaven is just gum… I always thought it was just bread on the ground. I thought it was just like croutons. Manna’s great. Manna is the best. Never thought I’d be saying that. You know how when you’re camping and everything tastes better? I’m sure it did for them when they were camping, to put it mildly. Right. I don’t know how you guys made manna. I don’t know exactly what your approach was- But it’s a 95 for me. I’m gonna go with a straight 88. It’s tree sap. We didn’t make it. Oh, tree sap. It’s tree sap. We just ate tree sap. Yeah. Highly recommend. Two Sided Scroll of Lamentations. Oh yes. Who ended up eating this? A prophet? Somebody was forced to eat this. This is edible. This is edible. Just so you know, this is completely edible. It’s a food product. Oh, it just disappeared in my mouth. Ezekiel. Ezekiel. Yes. That’s what you say when Lamentations disappears in someone’s mouth. Ezekiel. “Ezekiel to you.” The original easy Eazy-E. It’s kind of like, um, gesundheit. Yeah. Ooh. That was pretty tasteless. And I think that when he ate it, it was not really, I can’t remember the circumstances. It wasn’t a good moment for him. It wasn’t a good moment, I don’t think. 47. I’m gonna give it a 31. Angel cakes. Angel cakes? Angel cakes? Is it made out of angel or do the angels give it? I don’t know about these angel cakes. I thought you said you had Bible verses. What are the angel cakes? I personally don’t have the Bible verses, but we pulled from Bible verses and angel cakes is unleavened bread. Okay. Okay. It’s a little dry. Yeah. Not much to rave about here. Sorry, angels. I have to go, I mean, it’s not bad for what it is, especially after all those meats. I’m gonna give it a nice straight down the middle 50. I’m gonna go, I’ll give it a 53. Chase has just handed me the Bible. The entire Bible? Take a hint, Stevie. So next time when you ask me, I’ll just do a quick read through and look that up. Miraculous fish and loaves of bread. Now I remember this. It’s in the New Testament. Oh my gosh. Okay, and the more of this I eat, the more is you’re gonna give me, so I’m not falling for this. What are you talking about? I know how this works. Just eat it. Well, don’t give me the head. Yeah, come on, come on. Just eat it. I’m not going for the head. I’m going for the side. Stop. Stop. What would Jesus do? He wouldn’t force feed you. Go sideways. Good Lord, there’s a lot of bones in that. Oh. Mm. Listen. And look, now they’re bringing in more and it’s all intact again. Get it? I always pictured it as like a nice fried flounder. Nice little fried flounder. Something real nice, you know what I’m saying? Maybe like- Maybe some fried catfish. And then some cornbread. With some, oh! Jesus bringing out the cornbread and the fried catfish. Oh, the bone. Again and again. The bones are sharp. Okay. Thank you, Jesus. I love that one. Almost killed my friend. I’m gonna give that one- Never ending supply of loaves and fishes. 88. It was how many loaves and how many fishes did it start with? Well, he fed the 5,000. But it was two and seven. What was it? It was a little amount. It was a small amount? I can’t remember. I don’t… 27. Okay. That’s what you’re trying to do? Yeah. And that concludes the divine foods category. Our next and final category is miscellaneous Bible foods, starting with eggs. Eggs. Eggs in the Bible. Mm. Yeah, I just got teased with some Bible egg. Isn’t that nice? That Bible egg is good. That’s a… Nice change of pace, isn’t it? That’s a 84 for me. Oh, it’s not that great. 75. It’s incredibly edible. Grape juice. Grape juice? Y’all some Baptists up in here? Hold on. Yeah, is this imitation wine? Mm, mm. Oh, how good. That’s the best thing we’ve had- Oh my. All Bible day. Y’all should turn the light on for that thing. Uh huh. That’s some good grape juice. What is that? Welch’s? Woo. 92. Grape juice is so good. Like how do we get to a place where grape juice tastes that good? 98. Yeah. I mean, it’s like what is happening? Yeah. Yep. Raw honey. Oh. Raw honey? Oh, John the Baptist would eat this. Because he lived out there in the woods and in the wilderness. Ooh, that’s nice, too. Oh. Mm. 96. Raw honey? 99. Oh. Olive oil. Oh, I love olive oil. Olive oil? Ooh. I do this straight every day. That’s good. Really? Oh yeah. Put it in my smoothie. Sometimes I just drizzle it right in my gullet. It’s good for you. Drizzle it in your gullet? In my mouth. I mean, it’s good, but it ain’t as good as honey. It’s not as good as honey. It’s an 87. It’s an 80 for me. Vinegar. Vinegar. You drizzle this in your gullet too? No. Woo! Good gosh. It’s, ooh, if you really- It’s nice with that oil, though. If you really want to get the punch of vinegar… Eat some honey and then some, ooh. Oh, it’s getting him. It’s getting him in his cheeks. Oh, God. Oh. But you like it? I think I… But you like it, right? I feel like I’m about to be slain in the spirit or something. It’s getting weird. Woo! Geez. That’s good. That’s good. 78. 79. Wine. Wine, the other grape juice. Pretty good. I like grape juice more, though. The vinegar completely ruined it. It’s a solid 89. 95. Locust. Okay. Like the plague? I’m dripping. Oh, god. It kind of tastes sort of like spinach. That’s not great. That’s not the best thing I’ve ever had. 34. 44. Animal diet of grass. Animal diet of… Please note this is a safely sourced grass. It’s not lawn grass. This is a prophet eating grass too, wasn’t it? Oh, ooh. It kind of tastes good. It tastes weird. I kind of like it. 61. I don’t know. It kind of makes me feel like I’m in Jamba Juice or something. 40. How long I’d like to fast after trying that. Did you both rate it? Did I miss it? I was reading Daniel- I said a score. I don’t know what it was. 60 or something. Okay. Human flesh. What? What? What? Is this like, is this about the Lord’s- Okay, well we tried to approximate it based on, you know, expert guidance. So this is pork? And it is pork. But it is specifically made in a specific part to emulate it. Ugh, why is it so bitter? Oh. Ugh! That was punitive on purpose so we don’t start thinking we’re going to eat people, huh? Oh, God. Ugh. Well he’s having a rough time with it. Did yours not taste bitter? Well, I’m still tasting it. Bitter and fatty and porky. I mean it was all those things, but it wasn’t- Seven, seven. Seven? This could be one of the most important things. What, are you playing the Bible trumpet? What are you doing? Yes. Trying to get the walls of Jericho to come down? Yeah. That’s horrible, y’all. I’m gonna go with a solid 21. Well, I’m glad you thought about it. That concludes the miscellaneous category. You’ve now tasted nearly every food mentioned in the Bible and your scores will be tabulated.

We are about to give you your top four foods to try again and crown your favorite as Bib-lickable, but first, here are your individual favorites. Rhett, yours was grape juice, of course. And Link, yours was raw honey. And your collective least favorite, thankfully, was human flesh. Human flesh. Okay. Now the overall top four foods in no particular order are grape juice- Yes. Manna. Yes. Raw honey. Raw honey. And wine. Wine. Okay. If you have any questions about these things, where they might come from, grape juice, apparently there are multiple places where it’s referenced as just fruit of the vine or new wine and indicates that fermentation hadn’t taken place yet, so there is grape juice in the Bible. But it’s not in its superior form, which is the wine. Well, you know how much I love grape juice now. Wine is grape juice for- For big boys? For big boys. Okay. Okay, I’m willing to let go of grape juice. I can get grape juice anytime. So we can move it aside if you really want to. I hate to do that to you. I really like it but- Manna from heaven, which- This manna is not as appetizing as I would like for it to be. My main issue with this, it doesn’t feel like a food as I’m eating it. And also a lot of conjecture involved. Right. Yeah, what was it? We don’t know. I mean, it can’t be better than honey. Yeah, you’re right. Get rid of this and bring the grape juice back. Oh really? Okay, yeah. So grape juice is back on the table. Raw honey. Now we said John the Baptist ate this, but there’s also that passage where Samson was traveling along and there was a bunch of bees with a hive inside of a dead lion carcass and he ate the honey out of it. You like that? I like that. And then he used the jawbone of an ass to slay people. Yeah, he did that. Boy, he was a wild card, wasn’t he? Honey is so good. Honey is so good. Honey and grape juice. But wine is the juice that makes men’s heart glad. You know what I’m saying? Hold on. Here’s the thing. After “Good Mythical Evening,” do you really think that we can say, the whole point of this is to kind of make up for what happened last night. We can’t turn around and say the best food in the Bible is wine. We can’t do that. No. Hey, we gotta appeal to our inner Baptists. Yep. And we have to use the Bib-lickable thing, plate here. Yeah, that was hard for you to say. Bib-lickable. Yeah, Bib-lickable. So are we saying that it’s the honey? Yes we are. I’ll give you your grape juice to number three. Oh, number three? It was gonna be four. I mean, but- Get it on number three. We almost did throw it away, so okay. We throwed it away and we got it- Oh, God! Lord, forgive us, um- For crapping our pants. So the most Bib-lickable food in the Bible is honey. Yes it is. There you go. Raw as it is. Don’t forget to come back for “Good Mythical Weekend” tomorrow right here on this channel. Thanks for commenting and sharing this video. You know what time it is. Hey everyone, my name’s Tessa and I’m here at the Buies Creek First Methodist Church next to where Rhet vandalized the church and it’s time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality. Oh, not to correct you, but it’s the First Baptist church. But he did vandalize the AC unit and they’ve never replaced it. Okay, Link, we’re gonna think of a number between one and 10. Mm-hm. Okay, and if we think of the same thing, we’re gonna have a great, great day. Yes. Okay. Three- Stevie, can you count now? Two, one. Seven. Seven. Ah, yes. Yeah, because of the Bible. Biblical perfection. We’re thinking about the Bible. Seven. We’re gonna have a good day. Click the top link to watch us experiment with the new old age filters on TikTok.
