(rooster crowing) (lion roaring) – Welcome to Good Mythical More. Lofthouse Cookies, these sugar cookies coated in frosting. That bring the internet to the yard. – Yeah. Lots of strong opinions both ways about this. – To discuss how much they hate or love these things. Let’s settle it once and for all! – Who’s right and who’s wrong, but first– – And for all. – Name That Squad, what do you call a group of squid? We’ve done this once. – Have we done this one? Well let’s see if we can remember it. – Let’s see if we can remember it. ‘Cause we said it was a squad of squid. – Squad of squid? – Something like that. – An ink of squid. A splotch of squid. – A squall of squid. – A blotch. – A squall of squid. – This time, I don’t know what I guessed last time. Probably the same thing as this time. I’m gonna say a blotch. – An audience of squid. – Boo! – I don’t remember that. – Ink blot, blotch. Blotch is not a word is it? Of course neither is Biscoff. It’s biscuit and coffee together. That’s what Kaitlin told us. – Okay, as the loser of the game, I am becoming the Mythberry Doughboy. Gotta put on my hat. Hee-hee! – All right, so let’s open these up. I’ve never had these. I don’t know, something about the… – Sits kinda high. – This is the type of packaging that if these cookies were made in the grocery store. – You would accept it? – I would overlook them. I just overlook cookies that are made in the grocery store. You know what I’m talking about? – In the baking, yeah– – In the baking section. – The bakery section, they put them– – ‘Cause they put them in this type of clamshell stuff, but this Lofthouse– – Hold on, there’s– – Made in Utah. – There’s a lot of really good stuff in that section, but I just feel guilty just even looking at it sometimes. – Couple of facts about Lofthouse before we get into these things. They’re frosted sugar cookies. But unlike traditional sugar cookies Lofthouse Cookies are made with both baking soda and baking powder to give them a fluffier, less crumbly texture. The company was started in 1994. They’re based out of Utah. I mean does that mean mountain climbers are making these or Mormons are making these? – Maybe mountain climbing Mormons. – I’m sorry, Utah. I love you, but I tend to just boil you down to granola or Mormon. I know that’s not fair. But what else do I have to say about that? – I don’t know, I’m gonna let you continue to talk. (Rhett laughs) Okay. – Of course you could be both. – Listen. – You could be a granola Mormon. – These are so soft, you might think– – You could be neither. – That they weren’t cooked. – You’re gonna be lonely in Utah I think. I don’t know. – I think you might be doing a community college thing right now. – Take this with a grain of salt. – But significantly worse. Now the Twitter account for Lofthouse Cookies has just over a thousand followers, but they haven’t tweeted since March 20th, 2014. See if we can change that. – Are you gonna… – Hee-hee! – Let’s see the inside. – Looks just like the outside. – It looks like an undercooked cake. Smooshed cake. – I’m gonna dip. – It’s almost more cakey than cookie-y. It definitely needs milk to go in all of those crevices. My first bite. – I like it. – Yeah, it’s like… – Especially when you dip it. Good god. – It’s like a strange cupcake experience. It’s like an unleavened cupcake. – Yeah, it’s like a squished cupcake. Oh gosh. – ‘Cause it’s got the frosting. – I dropped the whole thing in there, but no problem, I’m just gonna get it. – They’re available in many colors and seasonal flavors like cocoa, strawberry shortcake, candy corn, red velvet, and even birthday cake. – I’m only eating one, Rhett! You’re only eating one! – So you love it? You love them or you just like to eat things? Again, here’s the thing. – That’s true. – You get one me for being so picky, but I’m just discerning. I want to have an opinion. You say oh, I like it. But that’s meaningless now, so now you gotta figure out if I were a normal person who didn’t like every single thing, what would I say about it? – That’s what I’m trying to do. – I’m gonna try a dip to see if that improves it. It’s chalky. Let’s read some tweets about this thing. Get some other opinions on it. Malcolm the Based. Let me get this straight, you think, oh I gotta use the De Niro. Let me get this straight, you think this kind of cookie is good? How’s that? And then you do a Joker. – But it’s a Joaquin Joker. I do. (crew laughs) And I’m tired of pretending it’s not! – Okay, so– – Yeah! It is good! – Hunter’s response is yes, they are pure artificial garbage. I want some stat! So there’s a shame associated with eating these things, but there’s an irresistibility that people are describing. – I mean I could easily… – I have to like it before I can feel shame for liking it. – I could easily go through a pack. I don’t do that kind of thing. You may, here’s the thing, you may think I’m the kind of person that would do that, but I actually am pretty disciplined about things that I like. I just like a lot of things. – It’s a birthday cake experience. – I don’t know if I want– – I don’t really like cake and frosting. – Right. – You have to like cake more than cookies to like this cookie. – You don’t like cake or frosting. – Right. – So you’re on the other end of the spectrum. – I prefer cookies over cake, but if you prefer cake over cookies then this is the cookie for you. – But here’s the thing, Link. Since you ragged on me a second ago, you also haven’t poked me in quite a while. Hee-hee! I agree that I’m on this far, hee-hee, end of spectrum and can’t really represent, hee-hee, a normal person’s point of view. Hee-hee, but you’re on, hee-hee, I’m only, that’s too many pokes. – You don’t get to make the rules. – Nope. – You lost. – Nope, I’m gonna finish my point. – You lost. – Hee-hee. You’re as far off of the other end of the spectrum as I am on the other end of the spectrum. – This is not about us. I just wanted you to give a reason– – So somewhere in between us is a normal person’s perspective. You got a man who likes everything and a man who doesn’t like cake or frosting. I don’t think that we’re qualified to judge these. – I didn’t make this about me. All I said was I took my experience and I generalized it. – You made it about me. – I said if you like cake better than cookies then you will like this cookie. – If you like cake better than cookies you will like this cookie? Well I like cookies and cake. Where am I supposed to be? – If you like everything, then you’ll like this because it is included in everything. Let’s see another tweet. – Definitely not as good– – Especially if it backs me up. – Definitely not as good as just a good homemade chocolate chip cookie. I mean I’m not crazy. I’m not saying it’s better than that. – Twinkie Fingers, show us another one. – It’s another reply. – Oh, a different reply to the same, oh. These cookies are so good, and that’s coming from a picky eater too. – Oh, here we go, HiddenDestiny. Is that you, Link? HiddenDestiny12? – I’m a picky eater, but that’s not the reason I gave. That’s not the conclusion that I drew. Here’s another, Matt Grissom, trademark. Just ’cause you put a trademark next to you doesn’t mean there’s not another one. These cookies taste like poison and chalk. – But listen, his tweets are, hee-hee, are getting so much traction that he’s gotta trademark them. There’s three likes, hee-hee, on that one. – Yeah. They taste like poison and chalk. They do tastes like chalk. – Kieran. Grossman. Lofthouse Cookies tastes faintly of chemicals and that’s part of the charm. Okay, see, I understand that. – If you eat the edge without the frosting. You get that chemical. – This second one that I’m gonna eat is not really me eating a second cookie. It’s for content, it’s for me… Because we’re talking about them so I gotta, you know what I’m saying? I gotta keep evaluating them. There’s sprinkles? Sprinkles… I could do without sprinkles. – Yeah. – You also touched it very gingerly as if if you touched it harder it would count more? – No, it seems like it’s gonna break. – It seems so soft. – It seems like it’s just gonna dissolve. – Hee-hee, if we were to throw one back there to you right now it would break up in the air on the way to you. Look, hee-hee, Zack wants one. He loves them, look at him. Twinkie loves them. – Twinkle? – Twinkle. Hee-hee. That was more of a hit and less of a poke. – Boy I do like this milk though. I had a dream last night, the only thing I can remember is that I had a bag of cereal. – They’re good. – It wasn’t a bag from within a box, it was just a bag of cereal, like generic cereal, but it was name brand. And I poured the milk, or what I thought was milk, into it and then I was eating out of the bag. And I think it’s because of, I don’t know, something about that experience of you getting me to pour, you pouring Mountain Dew in the Doritos bag is still in my subconscious. So I was eating cereal that way. And for the first time in my recollection of dreams, I remembered it tasting weird. For the first time ever I tasted in a dream. And it didn’t taste right. And then I realized I had poured orange juice into the cereal and I was eating it. And it wasn’t as bad as you think it would be, but it wasn’t as good as it should’ve been. That was my dream. – You’re saying it’s the first time you’ve tasted in a dream. – Mmmhm. As far as I can recall. What does that mean? – I think there’s a new series in here and it’s Dream Taste Tests. (Rhett laughs) – I know, yeah. – I’m saying we go to sleep, and we tell you what you’re supposed to taste, then you wake up and you tell us about it. – You may have noticed that I’m wearing this hoodie. Mythical is Happiness. You wear this hoodie, happiness literally flows out of you. Look at me. Look at me! I’m happy! And look at him. – Hee-hee! – He’s happy. – So happy, hee-hee. – Because he’s sitting next to me. – So close to this hoodie, hee-hee-hee. Hee-hee, hee-hee. – Grab one now. Mythical.com. Auroraticket said Lofthouse sugar cookies are actual trash. I don’t understand why everyone loves them. The texture is just awful and gritty. They don’t taste good, it’s not gritty but it is chalky, they don’t taste good and they’re way too sugary. Well they’re sugar cookies. You’re undermining your argument here, Aurora. – No grit at all. – It’s just… – I can see why people wouldn’t like them. – I would not even call it a sugar cookie. I mean look at, it’s kinda, oh man. – If you don’t like frosting, you’re not gonna like them. But frosting’s good. – Why do you like them, Zack? – They taste good. – They taste good. – Yeah. I like the frosting. – You like the frosting. Are you a cake man? Do you like cake more than cookies? – Yes. – Yes! Who else loves these? Kaitlin? – Yeah, I love them. My siblings and I could easily down an entire package in less than an hour. – Do you like cake? – Yeah, I love cake. – Do you love cake more than cookies? – I’m definitely more excited by cake than cookies, but I don’t think that I love them more than the other. – Paisley, you’re on the line. You told me you like these cookies. Right? – I mean yeah. I don’t know if I wanna admit I love them, but I am on the liking cake more than cookies train. – See? That’s it. You gotta give it to me, man. I’m not crapping on something just ’cause I don’t like it. – Yeah, it’s cake. I completely agree. Hee-hee! – I like these cookies and I don’t like cake. – Chase, we didn’t ask you. – Chase just broke your whole theory. (crew laughing) Chase just broke your whole theory. – Why do you like the cookies then? – I think it’s close, I like cake a little bit and I think it’s close enough that it’s like okay, it gives me a taste, but I’m not a big cake person. It’s a cookie that’s cake-esque and that’s as close as I wanna get. – Interesting, right up to the cake line. – What other cookies do you like? – Oatmeal raisin. White chocolate macadamia. Anything but chocolate chip. – Okay, he’s got weird cookie tastes. – Yeah, yeah. If you’re off in any way in your priorities. You’re gonna like these. – But, okay, but let’s explore this theory because I agree that if you like cake you’re more likely to like these cookies, but definitely, hee-hee, definitely more– – That was weak. – More people like cake then would like these cookies. Like, hee-hee, the way you’re talking about people who like cake as if they’re a minority of the population. The majority of people on Earth like cake. Full stop, period. – If you like cake more than cookies then you will like this cookie. – But more people like cake than would like these cookies. Which is weird about Chase because– – The majority of people don’t like cake more than cookies though. I think that’s gonna be pretty even. – I’m not arguing with that. – But that is my point. – Right, but do you agree with my point which is the majority of people on Earth like cake? – Well most people would say they don’t dislike cake. It’s all in how you ask the question. – If you say do you like cake, 82% of the world will say yes. – Do you prefer cookies over cake? Do you prefer a lot of things over cake? Like pie, cookies, ice cream. – I prefer pie over cake even though I argued for cake on that episode, but that was just because we needed to have an opposing position. – I prefer almost any type of dessert over cake. It’s disappointing to me. But if I’m only offered cake, I’m gonna eat it. I was offered cake two days ago and I ate it. But I wasn’t offered a cookie at the same time. – You’re saying that 56% of people, hee-hee, like what most? (phone rings) Ice cream is their favorite dessert? – Hello? (crew laughs) – Well that’s why an ice cream cake is the best thing on Earth. Ice cream cake is the best cake ’cause it’s got ice cream in it. And I like ice cream cake more than this. – You like ice cream cake more than ice cream? – No. But on my birthday I do. I don’t want just ice cream on my birthday. I want an ice cream cake. Because just like Kaitlin said, she said she was more excited by cake and that’s because cake comes in an exciting package. These are exciting, right? The form factor is… – Excitement. – Exciting. It’s the color, it’s the, hee-hee, it’s the sprinkles. That’s exciting. I mean that’s part of, hee-hee, the process. You don’t wanna go into, hoo-hoo. – Didn’t touch you. – You don’t wanna go into a fancy restaurant– – You gotta have one in reverse. – Eeh-eeh! You don’t wanna go into a fancy restaurant and have it look like a K&W Cafeteria. You know what I’m saying? Ambiance is important. Form factor is important. – You’re being fooled, people. No, it’s a matter of preference. – I thought we were gonna settle this once and for all though. I think they’re good. (crew laughs) Yeah, that’s where we landed. They’re good.
