- Where are these international chocolate dishes from? - Let's talk about them. (singers vocalizing) (upbeat whimsical music) Good Mythical Morning. - It's October, which means by the end of this month, a lot of people in the U.S. are gonna have stockpiles of chocolate in their homes. - But how do people around the world enjoy chocolate? And how do they get it without going to strangers' doors in costume and begging for it? - Most likely money. It's time for... ♪ Where in the world ♪ ♪ Do these international chocolate dishes come from ♪ (singer vocalizing) - We're gonna taste this chocolate dish and then guess where it's from by throwing darts at that map. - [Link] Then Chase, the sweetie cartographer, will measure our darts to determine our points. - Ooh, so sweet it's gonna give you a headache. - [Rhett] Oh. - That happens to me if I have too many Reese's Cups. - [Link] Oh, really? - Yeah. - You might be getting migraines from chocolate. - Really? - [Rhett] Yeah, it happens to some. - Which is a thing. My mother-in-law can't eat chocolate. So in her honor today, I will be eating chocolate. (crew laughing) On one last time, again. - You're on quite a streak, Link. - Well, two in a row. I guess for me- - Well, this could be three in a row. - That's quite as three. When you say that, it's like you're... - I'm just saying I'm excited for you. - It's like you're tanking my... - No, I'm excited for you. - My mojo. - You're on a streak. - You'll get an advantage. I'm gonna go first. - Will it be a real advantage, or will it be a fake advantage, designed to make fun of me? - Do you want me to answer that? (crew laughing) - Do you even know? - No. (crew laughing) - [Rhett] Chocolate sausage? - [Link] This is a chocolate sausage. - But is it just chocolate, or is it actually sausage? - Well, I think that there's nuts in there, homie. - It has a form factor of a sausage, but it's a log. - It's kind of brownie-ish. Very dry brownie. Pistachios, it looks like. - Fruitcakey. - These are green little bits. Looks like there might be some walnut happening in there. - Pretty good. Tastes very natural. Doesn't it taste very natural? - It does. - Like, not a lot of processing. - [Crew Member] How heavy is that log? - 1.1 pounds. - Does that answer your question? Who likes logs? Who likes nuts? - Logs and nuts. - I don't know, guys. If I were visiting this country, I think that they would have not only logs like this, but it'd have other types of things logged up. It feels like... - [Rhett] Hmm. - I don't know. I feel like it's more European. Something about it is, like, cute rolled-up logs. - When you think logs, you think Europe. - Yeah. Finland doesn't make sense. Greece... I don't know. I'm feeling, like, in the Greece, Portugal, which is the California of Spain, Chase told me. (Chase laughs) - Yeah. Yep. And I've been there to both California and Portugal. - I didn't want to say that to everyone online, but, you know- - Oh, sorry. Sorry for outing you about that. So I'm just gonna go... The benefit is it's in the middle of the map, but pistachios, could that... They're everywhere. But they're definitely there in the middle of that map. Oh, that went low. - Little bit low. - I got to start throwing... My wrist is hurting. - Oh, what happened? - I don't know. Age. - Do you want a sweet kiss? - Oh, did you... Yeah, yeah. - No, no. No. No. - Let Chase kiss it. - Not yet. It's not that bad. - Okay. Well, we'll see what we can do. - Okay. - Well, I love your reasoning, Link. When I think logs, I think Europe. I mean, honestly, I'm just going off the pistachios of it all and it's sending me... I know they are everywhere, but it's sending me to Greece. I kind of feel like- - Yeah. - [Rhett] You know, ground zero for pistachios is Greece. - All you got to do is throw it at Greece and hit it better than I did. - I don't. And my wrist is hurt. - What happened? - I need Chase to kiss it. No, I don't. Okay. Oh! Whoa! - I need to practice on my own time. - I hit the word Greece. I didn't hit the country Greece. - [Crew Member] You just had chocolate salami. This no-bake dessert is made by combining chocolate, crushed cookies, pine nuts, and pistachios into a sweet roll. The name is derived from a cylindrical shape and the light cookies, which look like speckled salami fat. This famous dessert is popular in Portugal. - Oh. - Oh. The California of Spain. - Okay. Man, I should have split the diff. - I really got to work on my throws. - Should have split the diff. - All right. Link, you had 15. Rhett, just a little sweeter at 10. - Okay. All right. Oh, it's still a tight game. (singer vocalizing) Fish. Five fish. Five chocolate fish. - Five chocolate fishes. Is it marshmallow? I believe it's pink marshmallow. - [Rhett] Hmm. - Strawberry? Strawberry? Strawberry? - It's very... It's a subtle... - Oh, I though you couldn't hear me. Strawberry? - It's a subtle flavor. I mean, it definitely is a little pink. - So did we make these in house? Like, we replicate these things. We don't travel all the way to Falkland Islands, I know. - [Crew Member] Correct. Yes, they are made in house. Our lovely Nicole is here. - Nicole. - You can make chocolate fish. - That is delicate. - I like it quite a lot. And now I guess I'm going first. The tables have turned. - No, you're falling right into my plan. I like being just behind you. - When I think of fish... - When playing this game. - I think of water. - Me, too. - When I think of water, well, water's everywhere. Fish are everywhere. I'm gonna rule some countries out. I'm ruling out Mongolia. - Okay. - I mean, there's probably fish in Mongolia. Freshwater. (crew laughing) Okay. Where do they love marshmallows? - If I said I really like your rationale, would it get me some brownie points? - Yeah. I might get you some actual brownies. I don't know the subsequent rounds. I'll be here all week. Okay. Fish, man. See, the thing about this is that something about marshmallow fish makes me think Argentina, but it's so far down there. There's so many fish in Greece. All the places that fish could access Argentina. There's a whole coastline. Fish, though? Fish. I mean, Greece, they got so much fish. There's so many islands. You can't look anywhere in Greece without being in the line of sight of a fish. You might not see it, but it's there. - You've seen Greek desserts, though. I mean, they usually have a lot of other stuff in them. - Yeah, but there's also... They love- - Marshmallows? - They love fish in Finland, like dried fish. They like lots of dried fish and that kind of thing, so maybe they are like, "Let's just make the fish chocolate this time." So basically I'm somewhere between Finland, Greece, and Argentina, which kind of puts me right back at Greece. (Rhett breathes deeply) - Okay. I believe it's Finland. I believe that they like fish in their foods so much that they make non-fish foods fish. - Yep. Good logic. - And I am not holding back. I just have to figure out how to throw better. Maybe it's that I have to throw through Finland. - Yeah, think about what's under Finland. - Through Finland. - Think about hitting the core of the Earth. - Underneath Finland. - Just behind that map. - Oh, yeah. Okay. All right. I've applied myself... - Those are good thoughts. - I think you found the sweet spot. - [Crew Member] You've just had chocolate fish, a confectionary marshmallow treat covered in chocolate and shaped like a fish. Originating in the 1950s, it's still a favorite amongst children, and it represents a reward for a job well done in New Zealand. - Oh! - No! - You've been there. - What? - You've been there. - I'm a fool of a Took. (crew laughing) - [Crew Member] That was good. - Rhett, you had 58, and Link, surprisingly, 59. - Oh, wow. Okay, that was bad. We might as well have missed the board. - Yeah. Trick or treat yourself to the new Mythical Halloween Collection. - [Rhett] Woo-hoo! - First of all, I know you want to show the back off of this thing. Look at that. But people are seeing the front. Rhett put on this sweatshirt this morning, and we've had multiple crew members say, "I like your sweatshirt." - They didn't even know it was a Mythical special. - Look at that, 'cause it's got the little bit of a peak of... Spiders? - [Rhett] Those are spiders. - And then on the other side- - Well, the thing we've heard from y'all is that you like things that are a little bit subtle in terms of the GMM or Mythical connection. Like, you know, I understand that. - See the GMM logo there? - You know, so it's like, "Oh, that's such a cool shirt," but if you look close, you know, you know. - This is glow in the dark. - If you know, you know. - On the back of this shirt is the design that's on the front of this one, which is us as creepy people. We've got chip clips. We've got towels. We've got all your spooky dreams coming true. - Oh, and this cauldron mug, which is very big. Very big. - I don't know what else to say besides go to mythical.com. - Well, you said it. This doesn't even look like chocolate. - Looks like a pounded biscuit. You're gonna do a little breaky break? - [Rhett] Oh. - Oh, yeah. - It's a pastry. It's a very, like, almost greasy pastry. - [Link] Hmm. Hmm! - There's some very good chocolate inside. - [Link] Hmm. - [Rhett] Hmm. - [Link] Hmm. - [Rhett] It's kind of almost like an undercooked biscuit with a chocolate inside. - I love a light biscuit, boy. Don't burn my biscuit. - But where are they doing this? - Keep it raw. I like things a little bit raw. - I mean, where are they doing this thing? - You are winning by just enough to go first, falling right into my plan. - Last time- - Can I try one? That looks delicious. - Since when- - You don't mind if I fondue? (crew laughing) - Oh. Was that a hint? - He asked to try one just so he can say that. - I mean... - I just got to say sweet stuff. - Oh, he's just saying sweet things. Yes, fondue. Sweet could also be cheese. - That's true. Well, butterfingers. (crew laughing) - It's so greasy. - Sorry, I'm gonna take five. - Take five. (crew laughing) - Yeah. Okay, Chase is leaving. He's going to go freshen up. Mm. I live in the United States. Never seen these. - Say less. - I've seen everything. New Zealand's already been taken. There's no way this is Indonesia. Mongolia's on the map quite a bit, but have we ever said something was from there? - I don't think we have. - Yeah. I don't think we have. I don't know. Look at the official record. - Which is a damn shame. - It is. Let's do that. Next time- - Pardon my French. - Next time, everything's from Mongolia. - I mean, it's the highlands or something. They got highlands. - The fried sort of nature of it makes me feel Argentina. I feel the weight of Argentina. A lot of times we feel the pull of Argentina on this game. But it's such a risk to go to it. - [Link] Yeah. - You know what? I'm feeling the pull to Argentina, and I'm gonna let it pull me, but I'm not gonna let it pull me all the way just in case it's wrong. - In case it's wrong. Like... - I'm it. - You're shirking responsibility again, Rhett. - I should have gone a little bit higher. - I'm going for Greece because I feel like this is phyllo dough. It's layered. - [Rhett] Yeah, you're right about that. - Period. It's layered. So here we go. This is my chance to really take the lead. I'm throwing through Greece into the center of the Earth. Oh. Still, I've got to throw harder or higher? - Higher in that case. - [Crew Member] Oh, one sec, sorry. Someone wants to hop on the mic really quick. - Oh. Oh, gosh. (crew laughing) - [Crew Member] You just had bakpia pathok. Traditionally filled with mung bean mixture, nowadays that can be made with cheese, fruits, or chocolate. Though the dish has heavy Chinese influence, this is a popular street snack in the Jogjakarta region of Indonesia. - Well, you're a lot closer than I am. - Well, how would you know? (crew laughing) - [Crew Member] I have actually had this. It's really good. - It is very good, but it didn't strike me as Indonesian. - Okay. Can you insult us in Indonesian? - [Crew Member] Well, you guys suck. (imitates Indonesian accent) (crew laughing) - Have you forgotten- - Not just the accent? - Have you forgotten? Dang, Link, you're a lot... I mean, you just pulled ahead, brother. - Yeah, Link, you had 28. Rhett, that was a little bit of a Milk Dud, 46. - [Rhett] Oh. - Indonesia. (singer vocalizing) - Before we taste this last dish, I would like to take this opportunity to issue a deep and heartfelt and sincere apology to the country of Mongolia. It was just informed... I was just... It was just... I keep referring to myself as it. - Good. - It was just informed, it being me, that we did taste something from Mongolia back in 2020 during international soups. - Ah. (crew laughing) - So I'm sorry, and I don't know what sorry in Mongolian is. So please use the translate tool. - That's... - [Crew Member] And a reminder to you all, this is the final round, so it is a mystery round. The country is not highlighted. - This is a... - Smells good. - Swirl of something. - With little balls in it. You see the little balls? - [Link] Well, it's... - [Rhett] Are the balls in the thing? - Like poppable air pockets. - Oh, they're bubbles. They're just bubbles. - Yeah. Oh, that's crunchy. - That's good. - I could use a little more chocolate on it actually. - That's really good. Dang. - [Link] It's a bit greasy. Greasier than the last round, for sure. - Well, Link, you're in the lead again, you go first. - [Link] Hmm. - I will be using my advantage, but we'll figure out what that is in a moment. - Okay. See, I didn't want to take the lead until the very end. So this is not what I wanted. - [Rhett] Could be anywhere, Link. Don't look at the labels. (Chase snickers) - Sorry for the little snickers. - There's some telltale signs in here that I won't speak to. - Okay. Telltale signs. - Because I don't want to give it any hints. - Hmm. Don't worry. It's not listening to you. - But I think I know where I want to go. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's not where I wanted to go. (crew laughing) Hmm. You love this. I don't think it has enough chocolate. I think it's too greasy. - Well, let me... What's my advantage first? - [Crew Member] Yes, you get the box of chocolate's advantage. You're allowed to pick one chocolate. All of them have a helpful hint under them except for one. So choose wisely. - A helpful hint, huh? Okay. There's some beautiful bonbons. Okay. I'm going to go for this one that is kind of dirty and messy. Okay. There's something written. I don't know if it's helpful. I can read it out loud because my friend is already done. - [Link] Mm-hmm. - I have to get it the right way, and which apparently is this. (crew laughing) "If you look north, you have nothing to-" (mic thudding) - What just happened to the map? - The map. - Made a noise. - Something fell off the back of the map. - And it wasn't Carney doing a voice this time. (crew laughing) Are we good? - I think the map might be a Kit Kat because it had a break. - Okay. Just check it out, Chase. - Is there a microphone on the back of the map that just fell off? - Yeah, there's something back here. - What is that? - It's wearing a wire. I don't know. - [Link] Are we wired? - [Rhett] Hold on. - [Link] Is there a bug? - What is that? - I never knew. I never knew the map has- - James, is there a microphone on the back of the map? - [James] I'm being told I can't confirm or deny. - Y'all been secretly micing the map. - We've been bugged. - That doesn't even look like a microphone. - I don't appreciate discovering that we're being listened to. - Yeah. Yeah. I don't like that at all. - Everything feels different now. Okay, anyway, what I was reading was, "If you look north, you have nothing to hemisphere." So it's in the northern hemisphere. Man, you- - [Link] That seems like you got a healthy hint. - I mean, I feel... It's swinging again. The dangle is dangling. - I don't know what you want to call it is. - We don't know. Okay. - If you go into witness protection and still help me, I will find you. (crew laughing) - I truly believe that. - He knows way too much. - The way you said it makes it sound like he's going into protection because of you. - He would need you to be. Yes. He knows way too much. - I'm waiting for my payday. - I though that you were going for Japan and you didn't quite get there, and you've been to- (mic thudding) Now it's completely falling off. Grab it, grab it, grab it. See what it is. Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it all the way. Bring it all the way. Bring it all the way. - [Link] Is it a mic? - [Rhett] I don't know. - What is this? What is this thing? It says frequency on it. - [Rhett] Is this a microphone? What does that say? - Can you hear me? - [Rhett] But what does that say on it? Read it. It says- - Russia. Russia. Are you listening? (crew laughing) - It says www.soniphorm.com. Not a sponsor, but that sounds like a microphone. It sounds like maybe like an impact microphone. Huh? It's a special... Are you telling me that when the- - Nobody's telling you anything. - Darts hit the map, it makes a boomp, and it's like being gathered via special percussive mic? - [Crew Member] Precisely. - Wow! - This is the icing on the cake. - So let me do this. What's that sound like, James? - Take that, Russia. - Wow. Man, I love working here. - The ingenuity. - You just find out something new every day. Okay, as I was saying, Link, before the map began to fall apart and reveal its secrets, I though you were going to Japan because you had some insight from your travels. And I think that technically Japan is in the northern hemisphere because it's above the equator. - Hmm. That's good. - But that feels like a weird hint to give for Japan. I was thinking more European. I think it's either Asian or European, and you're over there in Asia. I'm going to try to get lucky in Europe. - And I'm gonna hit this when you hit the map. - Oh, yeah. Yeah. And you better be precise now. (Rhett breathes deeply) Okay. - I think I did pretty good. We'll go do it again. - [Crew Member] You just had cartellate. This traditional holiday treat consists of fried pastry shells filled with ingredients such as roasted almonds, chocolate, spices, and honey. They are often prepared in the shape of a rose, which is ideal for absorbing syrups or cooked wine. You can find this dessert in Puglia, Italy. - What? - Ooh. Okay. Dang. I didn't get close enough. - I though this was those strips that's in Chinese chicken salad. - Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah, I know what you're talking about, like fried wontons. - Wonton strips. - I don't know if I got close enough. I think this is gonna be close. - Link, you had 26. - [Link] Yes. - And Rhett, your sweet spot was 15. - Oh, you won by one centimeter? - [Crew Member] Wow. (crew laughing) - I did, didn't I? - Oh. - Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. ♪ What you think about that ♪ - I should have just aimed for Europe. - Putin getting a spanking. (crew laughing) - Why is it Putin? - [Crew Member] Well, Rhett- - I know he's listening. - [Crew Member] Rhett, since you lost, you have to give Link a chocolate kiss on the cheek. - Oh, gosh. - One centimeter, y'all. - Oh, man. Ugh! (crew member laughing) Oh. Oh. Oh. (Rhett speaks faintly) (crew laughing) - How does it look? - [Rhett] Thanks for being your Mythical best! - You know what time it is. - I'm Emma. - And I'm Paul. - And we found the Falkland Islands government office... - In London, England. - And it's time... - [Both] To spin the wheel of mythicality. - To be clear, we're not there. We're in London, England. But still, quite a find. - Falkland Islands has got to... Now, that's visitable. - Yeah, you're right. - Much easier. - It's easier. Yeah. I have a very unfun fact, so buckle up. Apples sometimes have worms in them, but worms are more commonly found in the ground. - Join us at "Good Mythical More" to see us try Burger King and McDonald's new nuggets. - [Rhett] Trick or treat yourself with the new Mythical Halloween Collection now at mythical.com.
