Welcome to Good Mythical More. Ha! What are the chances? What are the chances? Ready Pet Go. We are going to be tasting some snacks and their new fan dangled updated version, including this, which I’m very excited about. Nutty Buddy Cereal! That looks pretty enticing. Well, let’s play Ready Pet Go. We’re gonna look at a picture of one of your pets and try to decide what its name is. Okay. This submission is from Bekah. Oh, another cat. What an angelic, creepy cat. Francis. Francis. Sh-sh. Shnowden. Hey, that would be an incredible name for a dog or a cat! Edgewood Shnowden. Shnowden. I hope it’s Shnowden. Shnowden. Shnoted. Alfredo. Chicken Alfredo. Chicken Alfredo. They probably call him Alfredo or Fred. Or Chicken Or Alf. All right, Gwynedd, come on in here. Guide us through the world of updated snackies. I’d love to. Push that out. Now I’m holding Jasper, but Jade is perfectly happy with Jenna over there. So I’m gonna try to be, just holding Sean. He’s much better at being held than Barbara, but he’s still a McLaughlin dog. So we’ll see. What are you doing buddy? We’ll see how he does. He’s got a, his sister has not taught him well. I am excited about now. Yeah, we can’t, we can both pet my dog, but we can’t pet my dog in the same place. That was, a little awkward. Okay, sorry about that. It’s like my hand was there. ‘Cause then it becomes scritches between the two of you. All these scritches that are gonna happen, if they happen, are between me and Link. Are you a dog person or a cat person? Oh my God, I am a dog person and a cat person. Is that allowed to say? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think I’m almost that. Yeah. You have both at home? I have a cat at home. Okay. Well we see where your allegiance is. I know. Shnowden. This is like too sad. But my dog passed away last year. I know, but she was like– I’ll give you a scritch. Thanks. She was like really good and like had a nice life and stuff. She was gargantuan and her name was Pearl. Pearl. And the cat’s name is? Yeah. Magnus. Magnus. Yeah. I feel like I added an extra syllable. Mag-a-nus. Mag-a-nus! Mag-a-nus. All right, let’s eat a snack. He’s cute. Okay– Where do you wanna start? I think we should start with the game day chili Lays. How about that? So what’s the… You’re comparing these to barbecue. The original barbecue. Okay, this is the chili. Oh then we don’t have to open these. Yeah. Okay. So this is regular barbecue. So this isn’t like a one-to-one match here. Like these aren’t like an update on a barbecue Lay, but I figured it was like kind of the closest to this is– This is barbecue? That’s regular barbecue, yeah. That’s a classic chip right there. I know. It’s hard to go wrong. Hard to go wrong with that. Real good. Now– I’m underwhelmed. I never choose barbecue chips. I kinda wanna look at the bag, and see what… So, okay, so it’s game day chili and I feel like chili has a lot of ingredients in it. So it promises, a lot, right? It tastes like chili. It’s got the chili powder. Yeah, just right. Just the first taste, first impression. Immediately positive. It’s got, there’s a little bit of a darkness to it. Like it could be a little naughty. Yeah, no, it’s like, but it’s like got a little bit of cheesiness in it too, I think. I think they’re going with that. Yeah. they’re showing the cheese here. That is– It’s a good chip. A special chip. Now if you don’t like chili though, you won’t like it. No, it’s a lot of chili powder. But this is also like a limited edition flavor, so. So you can overdo it for just a little bit. Yeah. I like them a lot though. I think these are good, but I think I ultimately like barbecue better. Maybe. I don’t. Okay. I think they’re saltier. I’m gonna go back to the barbecue. I think. I’m over it. I think more people would prefer barbecue because this is a popular chip. I mean like in the grab bag, in the variety pack, barbecue does get gone by a lot of people. I do agree with you Link that barbecue is– It’s too sweet for me. Barbecue’s not, definitely not in one of my top chips, but it’s in a lot of people’s top chips. And when you, compare it like this, you realize how freaking sugary it is, and that I finally figured out, that’s why I don’t like it. Well, I think that they should, Lays is constantly releasing limited edition chips that should like not be limited edition. And I want to, I don’t know officially lodge a complaint. This is me doing that right now. Yeah keep the good stuff coming, Lays. Yes. It was like a few months ago, they came out with like Funyuns, onion flavored Lays potato chips. Oh, that feels… And they were so good. It was insane. Did you Spork that? Good. Good. Yep. They won a Spork award. That’s right. Go back to your geometry days for a moment. What do you think the degree of separation between the two places that Sean is looking is? He’s definitely– If you had to draw the angle of the two places that he was looking, I think it’s seven degrees. I think he’s got a seven degrees spread. Sean, Sean, Sean. I like how you can talk about dogs and they don’t know you’re talking about them. I kind of feel like it’s at least 14. You think he’s got a 14% spread, 14 degrees spread? I mean, break out the protractor. I mean, he’s looking at me right now. I’m just telling you, with the left eye. He does kind of look like if you put those like craft googly eyes on a dog, you know? Yeah. I’m impressed that they don’t care about the food all that much. Yeah. He’s not as food motivated as Barbara. I’ll tell you. I realize just how crazy she is when I got a different dog and now you see how crazy he is. They’re both, they’re out trying out crazy each other. Let’s bring this one in. Yeah, those are the Zaps. Okay so, Zaps is a potato chip brand and they recently came out with pretzels. And so these are like, they’re, I feel like they’re voodoo flavor is like one of their more popular ones like you see them at bars and stuff a lot. I know it. It’s a sport favorite. Yeah. Yes. Is this like a north, a northeast kind of thing? They’re so good. Like the people in a northeast like this, ’cause us southern folk never even heard of this back growing up. I think that they’re like, supposed to be like a New Orleans thing. Hence the voodoo of it all. Not just the, yeah. Not just this flavor. I think that’s like what they were… I gotta tell you. Guys– Well they’re made in Pennsylvania. Now that I have– Yeah. They’re owned by Utz, which is based in Pennsylvania. Now that I’ve gone out on this limb of not liking sweet chips. I gotta tell you, I can’t like these either ’cause they’re too sugary. So much dadgum sugar in ’em. No, there’s only one gram added sugar. Isn’t it, it’s like a spice. It’s like a Cajun spice. I think, you might be misinterpreting that spice. It’s just not my preference. Did you? Okay. Did you try the pretzels yet? I like that chip. Okay. Mm. Maybe I’ll like it better on a pretzel. Whoa. It really compliments a pretzel taste. Right? Look how much like seasoning– In a real good way. Lives on these like, they’re like pretzel twists. Like, do you know that brand Dot’s, Dot’s Pretzels? Mm, I don’t think so. They’re real good. Another seasoned pretzel brand, but they’re a lot like this, but they like, so much seasoning clings to them. Oh, they’re so, listen. This works. This is an improvement for me. I can’t have this stuff around, because I just want to take the whole bag and just open it up and just lean back. That’s how I feel about these. Lean back. They’re like vinegar-y They’re spicy. I love these things. You getting a little restless? Yeah. And then, the pretzel of it all. Jasper doesn’t do that. Balances it out. Jasper. Balances out that sweetness that I’m reacting negatively to. Just calm down a little bit. Lower your heart rate. Breathe, breathe through one nostril and out the other. Love, love and love. Okay. In one nostril and out the other. Now, we have, how about we go with these Cinnamon Toast Crunch, stuffed marshmallows versus these milk chocolate Stuffed Puffs, which we also gave a Spork award to in 2022. Okay so we’ve had those. We love these things. Yeah, so let’s have these again. I was very impressed. Take one. Thank you. Pass it down. I’m gonna bite this in half. Look at that. Look at how much chocolate is in that thing. It almost feels wrong. This is the superior s’more maker. Yeah, I know. It’s like the less mess s’mores marshmallow. So we’re doing a bit of a different comparison here because– These are both fancy marshmallows or wild marshmallows. Well I guess what you’re saying is this is the original Stuffed Puff, with chocolate. And now the new Stuffed Puff is Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Yeah. So I don’t know if you guys have noticed this, but Cinnamon Toast Crunch always be releasing new things like constantly. Yeah we did a Gut Check. Right? Smell that. And then… You mean smell of that. Okay. They nailed the smell. Yeah. But then they have like– What is in the middle? I don’t know. I don’t know. I think I missed it. Oh, I did too. Actually on my first bite, I didn’t get any of the filling. It says with cinnamon flavored cream and then covered in crumbles. It’s not as big as the chocolate. It’s a smaller, it’s only in half of it. And you miss it. It’s pretty dang tasty once you get it though. And I only got it. I didn’t like it the first time. I didn’t like my first bite, but when I got to the cinnamon cream, I sort of started perking up a little bit. What would you do with this? That’s, I mean, I think they’re like, just for snacking and it feels like wild to me. It, yeah. It’s a little too out there. Your dog’s gonna get one. I don’t think, don’t think he actually– Someone’s interested! He’s so timid. Look at it. Look at him. There’s another, there’s another dog. He will get up on the table and just hoover that thing after we’re done eating. Oh no. There ain’t no way Jade can get up there. Jade makes you carry her up stairs. So I personally think that the original like milk chocolate Stuffed Puffs are better. So much better. There’s something too, like unidentifiable about like the cream inside of the Cinnamon Toast Crunch ones. It is a little weird. It requires an adjustment period. You have to eat the whole bag. And this is just, it’s for s’mores and then you can just eat ’em. But this, I don’t know what it’s for. I mean I guess you could make s’mores with them, but then you’d be like, I don’t know why am I eating this. Do you wanna try to hold Jasper? Yeah! Because. Yeah, I do! I don’t know how he’s gonna do. You might have to hold Jade. You want, do you want to bite Gwynedd? Okay. Hi! Now Link, Sean bit you two times in quick succession. See he’s not that comfortable. I know. He looks so uncomfortable. Last year. Oh my God. Are you okay? Yeah. He’s, come back here. Oh my God. Yeah, he’s just, he’s– I was gonna try to give you the notes. Dogs hate her. You can try. Try Jade. Try to hold Jade. [Jenna] Jade will be very happy. Come here. Hey Jade. Here we go. Oh, someone’s going for the pretzels. How are we doing? This dog smells good. Yeah, she sleeps with me. She wearing the perfume? She smells so good. She smells like my right side. I’m just being honest. Oh my God. Have you made up with Sean? Because he bit you two times in quick succession earlier or last year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He’s good. I’m good. We’re good. Okay. Let’s eat another. So, next we are going to try these. Okay, so we have regular pretzel M&Ms, we know and love. And then we have these new, these are released for wintertime. These white chocolate pretzel ones called snowballs and they’re cute and they come in wintry colors. But do they, are they different flavors? Yeah. So you’ve got your like milk chocolate versus white chocolate. Now Jade, you can’t have any of these, it’s chocolate. Dogs can probably eat white chocolate. But you can have one. Oh yeah. ‘Cause it’s not. If she’s hungry. They have to eat a lot of regular chocolate usually. I mean, these small dogs though. Yeah. That’s– What’s like the craziest things your dogs have ever eaten? Cat dookie. Oh yeah. Dogs absolutely can’t get enough of it. Huh? It’s horrible. My dogs have never cat dookie. It’s horrible. It’s really gross. I don’t love this. At all. As a kid, I love white chocolate right now, I just like, I’m just not into it. Well it’s not chocolate. It’s posing. It’s a poser. Yeah. See, I don’t know. I love them. I think you get more of like the pretzel flavor. And I get a little more of the saltiness from the pretzel. Oh really? I forgot about the, that there was the pretzel in the middle. What do you think that crunch was? I thought it was a peanut. I think that it tastes good. I just like regular chocolate a little bit more. I think that’s fair. But I could listen. I would just for both of these bags, I would do the lean back with both of them. They call ’em snowballs. I do like the fact that it’s got a name. Yeah. I know. No, it’s not just like white chocolate pretzel. Can we get to the thing I’ve been waiting for though? I know we have such a fun one coming. Okay. So we’re split on the snowballs. Okay. Yeah. I like them. If you like white chocolate covered pretzels, I think you’ll like those. And I love white chocolate covered pretzels. Boy, I had a Nutty Buddy. Nutty Buddies are so nice. Nutty Buddies And then we have, Nutty Buddy Cereal. Which isn’t the first Little Debbie cereal. We tried, I think it was the oatmeal– Oatmeal cream pie cereal. At least, maybe multiple Little Debbie cereals. Oh, so you’ve already done the pouring KG? That’s up to you man. No, no she hasn’t. Because that was kind of my– Jade! Jade! So we got one bowl. We’re gonna, so we gotta make our, we gotta make our dips count. See that right there? So we like, we like Nutty Buddies though right? Is that your thing? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Who doesn’t? Okay. The society of . I don’t, I mean there’s, I don’t wanna be critical, but that’s a lot of cereal in that bowl. I mean, it’s gonna be hard to eat without– You gotta do a pat down. Do you wanna be reminded what a Nutty Buddy tastes like? Yes. I mean, should you want me to slough off the? You can build something with that. My God. I’m really tempting Jade. I don’t want her to eat that. So Gwynedd. I don’t like it. Oh man. Some of these– Get a Nutty Buddy first though. Don’t forget about those. This dog I promise. Good God that’s good. I want to eat this cereal first ’cause there’s no way it’s as good as the Nutty Buddy and I want to enjoy the cereal. Okay. I think that’s actually the right idea. You’re a smart man. And you know, when it comes to cereal, there’s like spoon size. Like I’m discovering like in a normal spoon size, I can get two of these in there. Well, look at me. Yeah, I think your proportions are off a little bit. It’s a really funny shape for a cereal and it’s like kind of large, like the individual pieces of it are large. Well you’re right that it’s not as good as a Nutty Buddy, but it’s pretty strikingly… It’s really hard to get to a Nutty Buddy taste with cereal. But they actually replicated the wafer consistency if you bite into this thing. Yeah, I think they got the wafer consistency. And I think it has the wafer flavor too. It could just use more peanut butter flavor. More peanut butter. Exactly. But I really like it. Where is the peanut butter flavor? It’s not, they didn’t put enough. They like, they kind of. Remind yourself of how good they can be. What? Yeah. Come on Little Debbie. Oh, now he’s upset. I ruined his morning. I mean, man, Nutty Buddies. Nutty Buddies are so good. How do they make something so good? And I think they’re dippable. I’ve never dipped them in. Oh, don’t do that. You could be able to Tim-Tam Slam these things. I think. That’s a good idea. That’s a fun idea. Gwynedd, could you put a piece of cereal on top of my Nutty buddy? Yeah. And can I just, I’m gonna slam this. Well, let me get a piece of cereal first. Oh, get a piece. What? Put a piece of cereal on top of my Nutty Buddy. Oh yeah, sure, sure. Do you want a wet one or a dry one? Yeah a wet one. Good. And wet. I’m gonna try to slam it. I’m gonna try to suck the milk through the shaft of the Nutty Buddy. Which is the definition of a slam. Is it coming through? Not yet. You gotta keep sucking. We all waiting. Do you feel that it’s coming? I think it’s, I think it is moving. Yeah. I sense some movement. It’s coming? It looks like it’s getting– It’s not making it all the way. Oh, boy. It got really soggy. Oh God. In my mouth. You gotta turn it over and suck that in. That’s nice though. Yeah. Okay. So we learned, if you don’t wanna buy Nutty Butty cereal, you can just put a Nutty Buddy in some milk and then slam it. Slam it. Yeah, slam it. Well listen, we have a lot of eating these things, but the team over at Sporked, Gwynedd knows this. They’re trying new stuff all the time and you know, when you decide that you’re going to make this specific culinary decision to what I might call a little bit of a splurge, you wanna get it right. You don’t wanna get one of these snacks that’s got all these calories packed in there and make the wrong decision and be like, this isn’t good for me and I’m not having a good time. At least have a good time while you’re killing yourself slowly. Okay? Yes. And the people over at sporked.com can help you with that. That’s what we do. ♪ Killing me slowly at Sporked. ♪ All right. Part of really assessing cereal is letting it sit in the milk, see if it softens too much. Also. Yeah. And if the milk takes on Nutty Buddy flavor. And if it chokes you a little bit, that’s a good sign. A little choked up. You start crying a little bit. The sog factor’s not too bad. It does get a little soggy, But the death nail is that there’s just no freaking peanut butter flavor. I mean, you can’t do what you did without doing what I’m saying you needed to have done. Yeah. I’m so disappointed Everyone understands that. I think in the realm of just like chocolate cereal though, it’s a good one. Like I would be happy if I bought that. But I would be sad if I wanted it to taste like a Nutty Buddy. Yep, yep, yep. I’m definitely sad. We’re ending it on a sad note. You did such a good job, Sean. So much better than your sister. Like they’re so contingent. I know. Now look at the people. All of them. Look at the people. Look at the people over here and over there at the same time.
