(rooster crowing) (lion roaring) – Welcome to Good Mythical More. – 10 word story, you start it. – Excuse. – Me. – But. – I. – Want. – A. – A twisted. – You said a again? – No, just twisted. – Twisted. (sighing) Thingamajig. – Because. – Why not? (laughing) – All right, you take five. – I did. I did why not as two words. – You should’ve said why and I would’ve said not. – No, but that would have been 11, right? Because I’m the tenth word, so I said why not as a conjunction with a dash in between. – Why, want. – Why not. Excuse me but I want a twisted thingamajig because. – Why not? – All right, we’re gonna take some dragon fruit. – Let me tell ya, that’s another classic. – Dragon fruit related, dragon fruit flavored snacks. – But before we do that. – But also related. – Gonna put on, look at this, Link. Look at this – [Link] Oh snap. Mythical kitchen apron. Look at this thing, it’s got what I might call a pastapus on it. – [Link] Oh yeah. – [Rhett] Which apparently the Mythical kitchen crew has named this Capellini, like. – Capellini. – Capellini pasta. – All right. – I know they were gonna get dirty, but we do have aprons on. – You know. – This is like denim. This thing’s denim, it’s got a pocket. – This part reminds me, in general, if you want to know about product drops first, and get access to The Mythical Monthly, go to mythicalnewsletter.com. Sign up for the mythical newsletter, guys. Mythicalnewsletter.com. It’s called Mythical Monthly. – We’re gonna taste some dragon fruit products, now. – Yeah. – Dragon fruit is in that section in the produce section with all the slightly odd, foreigny seeming fruits. – Oh yeah, it looks like that. – People go like, I don’t know what I’m supposed to think about this. – [Link] You cut it open and it looks like this. – My experience with dragon fruit is that it’s tantalizing, it looks magical and then you bite it, and you’re like, where’s the flavor? – Okay, yeah, right here you’ve got. – Am I wrong? – White dragon fruit cups, super snack, pure premium dried white dragon, white dragon fruit. White dragon fruit. White, dragon fruit chips. – Is it white dragon? – It’s a white dragon fruit. – Okay. – Chip. Not a white dragon fruit chip. – You like that one? So it’s basically just dried dragon fruit. – Bingo. – White dragon fruit. – Very crunchy. Very, woo. – Kind of like eating dried up chia pudding. – Is it sour? I can’t quite place it. – Only you can answer that question. – It is sour. – It tastes pretty good actually. – Tangy. I like this. – Legend has it, fire breathing dragons got their nutritional intake by eating dragon fruit. That’s a lie. – That ain’t true. I do like this, though. Now, there’s also red dragon fruit chips. – From the same folks? – From the same folks. Look at this. – So is red dragon fruit a different kind of dragon fruit? – I’m guessing so, or maybe they just dyed it. – Legend has it fire breathing dragons got their nutritional intake by eating dragon fruit. They lied on this one too. – Same copy. This one tastes more like a beet. – Oh, oh that’s nice. Oh this is good. – I like the other one better. It’s tangier and more sour. This is like, you know we got those dried beet chips and I think, I don’t think I’m being swayed by the color just because it’s beet color. I think that. – Which one has. – It’s not as sweet. – Okay, one of these, has one calorie more per serving. Which one is it? – The purple one definitely. – You’re right. – I can taste that calorie. – 200 calories, a hundred and 99. – I’m tempted to keep those around. – Yeah. – I like those. Let’s keep those around. Now let’s have some Hi-Chews. There’s different flavors in here, so you gotta fish out, – The dragon fruit? – Sticks to your teeth though, like every, – I’m assuming the dragon fruit is the, – yep. – Is the pink one. – Here’s my thing, whenever I eat something that sticks to my teeth, that sticks in there, I wanna get it out immediately. I have a hard time having a long term approach to things like this, where it’s like, oh I’m gonna keep eating it, so I’m gonna wait until I’m done eating and then I’m gonna get it all out of my teeth. No I have to do it constantly. – Here’s the thing. You keep chewing, right now it’s getting stuck and then I chew and it releases. Stuck chew release, stuck chew release. – You’re talking about the Hi-Chew though. I’m talking about that stuff. That stuff’s not sticking in your teeth? – Bless you. – Bless me? – You said Hi-Chew. – Funny, right? – Some people laugh, some people say funny. – Now, these Hi-Chews, are coated – There’s a tooth in in chia seeds. there somewhere. – And it looks like there’s chia seeds trapped inside of the dragon fruit, but those are dragon fruit seeds, don’t let ’em fool ya. Why would a dragon fruit have chia seeds in it? That would be stupid. – Well some sort of hybrid. – Mmm. – That’s good, I like, I mean. – I never eat Hi-Chews except for in Good Mythical More and every time I do I’m like, I like these. – Are there people besides children who just eat like, candy all the time? Am I just missing out, like, I just feel like, it feels so wrong. I feel like I just. – All right. Let me rephrase the question. Are there any people posing as adults who work for us and that’s all of you, that eat candy all the time? – How can you just like candy all the time? Anybody like a candy person? Oh, Andrew’s a candy person. – Andrew, you eat candy all the time? I see you like eating hiking stuff all the time, like a bar and that. – What’s your favorite candy? – [Andrew] Skittles. – Yeah okay. – Skittles. – You’re a fruity candy man, hmm. (laughing) Hmm. – Hi-Chews are good, though. You need to try that. – Yeah get ahold of that. You a Skittle man, you’ll like that. – Life Savers Exotics. – Oh, Life Savers Gummies. Oh Life Savers Gummies are so good, they’re like the perfect, – And they’re not individually packaged. Oh yeah, I thought they were individually packaged. – [Rhett] I love the consistency of a Life Savers Gummy. – So this has, – You can stretch it. – Lemon star fruit, mandarin orange, asian pear, fuji apple. – Oh I gotta eat a dragon fruit. – Raspberry dragon fruit, so it, okay so it’s, – This one? – I guess it’s the red one. – I just started eating, sorry. – Yeah, it has to be the red one. That’s the only one we’re eating. – I ate another one. – Doesn’t taste like a dragon fruit. – It tastes random, like, random fruit flavor. – I actually think I like the Hi-Chew experience better than the Life Saver Gummy experience. – But this doesn’t stick to you at all. Maybe the yellow ones are even good. – And then you gotta wash it down with some of this. Wanna wash it down with some of this? – Some Justin Timberlake? – Does he own this? Is he partial owner? – He was in a commercial, wasn’t he? – One gram of sugar, five calories per serving. 28 servings per bottle. Two servings per bottle. – Yeah, so there’s only five calories, 10 calories in the whole thing. Is there some weird, like, aspartame situation? – Yeah. There is. I can taste it. – Proprietary sweetener blend, which is erythritol, is that how you say that? Stevia leaf extract. – Let’s find out if it’s flammable. Anybody got a lighter? – Stevie, are you partial to stevia because? – Anybody have a lighter? – [Crewmember] Yes. (laughing) – She said yes. – Stevie’s not here. Stevie had to take a bathroom break. – Stevie’s dropping a deuce. (laughing) – That’s what you get for not being here. – Hey y’all be quiet. Let’s see if we can hear it. – The toilet is right behind that guitar. – It’s over there. Supernola, every bite matters. This is the, – What y’all do on More today? Well we listened to see if we can hear you poop. – Dragon fruit lemon zest, huh. Look at these things. – Why you gotta put everything on the table? – I want them to see it. This looks healthy. Smells, smells like, where does dragon fruit grow? Dragon fields. Smells like a dragon field. – You’re not gonna like this. I’ve spent enough time with you to know. You’re not gonna like that. – Oh my God, I hate this. It’s like eating a flower. – I don’t even like it. – Oh my gosh. – And I like everything. – Uh! How do I describe this? – How did that get made? – Oh God! – You know that show, How It’s Made? There should be How Did That Get Made? – It’s a podcast, Paul Scheer and uh. – Did he take it from me? – It’s about movies. – Oh, is it the same principle, like what in the world led to this movie made? It’s the same thing for snacks. – The lemon zest that they added. – Hosted by Paul Scheer. I don’t wanna do it. – Makes it, makes it taste like, cleaner. – The lemon zest is bad. – Like a bad type of cleaner. – Is that it, is that all? – Are you disappointed, brother? You know what? – Let’s get in this again. – I’m in it, yeah. Let get into this. – You like the white one better. – I’d recommend trying this. I think that’s what we learned.
