Welcome to Good Mythical More. This one goes out to all the overthinkers like me that strategically plan every bite of their food. Oh. We’ve surveyed people with showing them a picture of eaten food to see what is the best next bite. Can we predict what it should be? Oh. Do we agree with all the people who voted? Let’s find out. Well, at first, let’s donate $1,000 to the National Immigration Law Center to aid in their mission to defend and advance the rights and opportunities of low income immigrants and their family members. Please join us in giving at nilc.org/donate. It’ll make more sense if we just see the first one, right? Yeah. So this is from at NYorNothing, and they tweeted this image and captioned it, let’s separate the psychopaths and the geniuses, and then asked about the next bite. So- Who was surveyed, Mythical Beast or Mythical Crew? Mythical Crew. Oh, Mythical Crew. We surveyed Mythical Crew. Let’s see if you align. What’s your next bite? Okay. I mean, I’ve got my answer. Yep. Are we gonna do a three, two, one? Do you- No, I don’t- Yeah, I think you could just say it. Honor system. Right, right, right, right. Honor system. Okay, go first. I immediately thought two, because I wanna go across the sandwich. So my knee jerk reaction, which is probably what I would actually go off of because I don’t think about these things, was two, but now that you’re giving me the opportunity to think about it, I’m going three. ‘Cause I don’t want to create- Yeah. A long, I don’t wanna create a long sandwich. I wanna hit three, and then come back in for two. I like saving the best bite for last, which arguably is the number two bite. But there’s some, I don’t know, I just, I can’t bring, I got too much pride to gnaw around the edge of a sandwich and make it an uncrustable, but that’s what I would do if I didn’t have any pride. So I’m sticking with two as my answer, even though I think three is the correct choice. I’m sticking with three. What do we got back there? They’re debating. One moment please. They’re debating. You changing the answers on us? No, I didn’t have the right one for that, and now I’m trying to read Davin’s like production notes, and it’s very confusing. Oh wow, this is getting really complicated. And I still can’t find it. Oh my gosh! I can’t stand the suspense. Two, two. They picked two. They picked two. And what’s the- The Mythical Crew. What’s the percentage? What’s the breakdown? 24 people out of 32. 24 out of 32 picked two. 24 people out of the 32. Yeah, ’cause it’s, and it’s right there for the taking. It’s just hanging out there. It’s just like, it’s kinda like Florida. You just want to eat it. Yeah, I think I’d go for two, and then stop and think, three. How about three? Okay, all right. Okay, how about this next one, which I do have the answers for? So you’ve eaten the head of the gingerbread. I guess, I don’t think, I mean. So this is assuming, would I have started with the head? I know that’s not the question. It’s gone. It’s a moot point. This is tough. This is tough. Which leg? Which leg? I mean, it’s not one for me. It’s definitely not one at this point. Like you don’t go down the neck. You don’t just go right down the buttons. Yeah, that would be crazy. And then five and two are like- Choose your own adventure. Now when I pick up a cookie, when I pick this thing up the buttons will be facing out I feel like. So when I look down on it, I’m still seeing buttons, and I wouldn’t want it to fall off. I wouldn’t want a button to like- That’d be the worst thing. Be on the bottom side. So it would definitely be like this. So two would be on my left, and five would be on my right. You’d be holding it with your right hand. Like whenever I make out, I always instinctively go to the right. So I’m saying- You go to the right? I go to the right. I go to the right. I go to the same side that I go for a hug, which is the left. So I’m voting for five. Does that mean you’re voting for two using the make out rationale? Well, you’re gonna think this is weird, but I actually think that I would go for four or three, and here’s why. I’ll decide which one in a second. I like the ability to bite into something where my bite is a completely new bite, right? Like, it’s like you have a whole, a new opportunity for four and three to bite all fresh gingerbread that hasn’t been touched by your mouth already. But that’s not something you ever think about. I’m just saying, you’re giving me the opportunity to think. I don’t think while eating, and now I’m trying to be like a normal person, and I feel like I’m malfunctioning. Like think about what your next bite is. It’s like this, dude, I eat like I play sports. You don’t think, am I gonna go to the left or right? You just do it. It’s like when you start thinking about breathing, and then you can’t really breathe correctly. But I’m gonna say number four. I’m saying five. Four. 47% voted for two, followed by 28% for five. Nobody voted for four. 12.5% for four and for one, and zero for three. Yeah, nobody’s- Oh, wow. Nobody’s doing three. Yeah. Nobody’s doing three. It’s too far away. You both like nagged one, and I just would, I don’t know. That’s like the most straightforward way. You just go straight down the middle? But the problem is then you start having gingerbread on either side of your face. You don’t want ginger cheeks. Well, okay, you’re thinking it’s a big cookie. You gotta corncob whatever you’re doing a little bit. I’m thinking it’s like a normal size cookie. Yeah, we’re both picturing this gingerbread man like this big. Yeah. There’s no sense of scale. Okay, how about this one? I’m going instinct here. Oh, what would you call this, a yogurt parfait, or just like a muesli? What do you call this? This is, yeah, I think just a bowl of yogurt with toppings, yeah. This is not- It’s not the same. My option’s not up here. ‘Cause you would mix it. Yeah. I wouldn’t mix it, but I would assemble a bite. Well, what I was gonna say is I would start in four, and I would sweep over to get granola, and my first bite would be four and one. And I don’t wanna reward myself too early with two or three ’cause two or three feels like, I mean, I’m looking at that thing. There’s like eight blueberries there, so I don’t know how many bites those blueberries are gonna last. And so I’m saving those for the last half. You know what I would do? And this is exactly what I would do. I would eat, I would- I like that when you say that. Three. I’d eat all of those strawberries ’cause- You don’t like ’em. I don’t, I like strawberries, but I like this yogurt, granola, blueberry mixture better if there weren’t strawberries on it. So I’m just gonna get all the strawberries outta the way, and then I’m gonna start assembling bites. I’m gonna go four, one, two. Four, one, two. Four, one, two. I think my first bite is four, one. I’m going with three. And so I think I have to say four because that’s where I started. Okay. Yeah. 44% voted for number one. 28% voted for three. 22% voted for two. And four was last one with 6%. See, but I’m with you once I got rid of the strawberries. But I’m not just doing plain yogurt bite. I’m not crazy. I’m just saying it’s four and the one. I think this was hard. Yeah. This is a hard one to answer for that reason. Yeah, I agree, it’s really challenging. Yeah, this is- It’s kind of like that thing- This one’s inconclusive. How about this one? Skipping this one. We need, like this next one, yeah, it has to be like, what is it, homogenous. It has to be like the same. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you’re grabbing it, you’re holding this taco. Okay, this is an easy one. And so I’m assuming you’re saying three based on your like, I’m biting where one’s never bit before. Here’s the thing. It’s like Star Trek. Here’s the thing. I have specific real time experience with this. And I wouldn’t actually bite number three. Like ’cause I have, I don’t have experience with gingerbread men. Okay. So now that I’m going back to, I know I can count on this exact situation, and I know there’s a little overhang at the top, but I’m considering this essentially a, you’re at a flat part. I always go to one at the bottom, and then I even it out by eating the top. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I’m the one, two, one, two, one, two, one, two. So you, but it’s easier to eat the top, and then leave the bottom hanging out ’cause then that’s a better bite. But if you eat the bottom, then the stuff, isn’t the stuff from the top? If you eat one first, isn’t some of the stuff from two gonna start falling out? Well, in this taco it wouldn’t, but I guess in a typical taco in which there was like toppings including maybe like sour cream and cheese, I probably would go to number two first. Yeah, I’ll do a number two bite. But the way that it’s presented for the survey- I’m doing number one with this taco. I gotta do number one for this taco. ‘Cause there’s no risk of the structural failing. And what you’re seeing here is the best bite of the taco. So you gotta remember, halfway through that taco, you’re at peak taco. So you better enjoy it while it lasts. ‘Cause when you’re back there cleaning up the mess in number three, it’s not gonna, you’re gonna be questioning whether even if you should have even eaten taco. Yeah, yeah, number one, number one. This is real tight, real tight. And number two edged it out right over number one. I haven’t agreed with y’all on any of these. Yeah. I’m what you would call, and please don’t take this the wrong way. I’m a taco chaser. And by that I mean, at any point, the taco could slip outta your hands, and you’re really, you’re anticipating where is that slippage gonna happen? The whole taco can fall out of your hand? Well, no pieces of the taco. So like sometimes- You want your mouth to be ready for it. Yeah, sometimes you have to go for a three. So you’re just like chompy, chompy, chompy, chompy, chompy, chompy, chompy, chompy. It’s all one act. Well, no, sometimes you might have to go for a three if like there’s some sauce dribblage, you know? Yeah. Like you’re just always chasing the taco. That’s right, that’s right, that’s right, that’s right, that’s right. Anyway, how about these eggs? You don’t, you’re not grabbing ’em, and popping ’em in your mouth, but like which one would you choose first? Wow, it’s tough because they’re numbered. Let me give you a shout out. Most of my eggs are not numbered. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shout out to Mythical Kitchen. We’re loving award-winning series, Last Meals, where Josh has existential conversations about death, life, and your favorite foods with a special guest. Ben Schwartz is over there having his choice last meal, and talking about how he wants to die apparently. Well, you know- Thank you for internalizing that burp during my promo. Death. What? He’s talking about death not how he wants to die. Death. Yeah, that’s what I mean. Go over there. Show Ben Schwartz and the mythical team some love. Watch Last Meals, okay? Okay, my point of reference for this, what we do at my house is we take all dozen, and we put ’em in one of those trays that is a four by three tray that stays in the fridge. Four by three. ‘Cause you got a dozen eggs. And so four by three is also 12. Is 12. Yeah, it is. And we actually have two side by side because we are a egg heavy household. So we always have anywhere between a dozen and 24 eggs at any time because there’s just eggs going like crazy. I mean, it’s like a Waffle House. And I make a bunch of scrambles, and I’ll throw six eggs in a scramble ’cause me and Jessie share it. And I realize that I’m taking eggs out of the one that’s closer to me, and then I’m like, but then we’re getting new eggs, and we’re just filling it in. Those eggs in the back, how many rotations have we gone through before we get to those eggs in the back? So I’ll go in, and I’ll start grabbing eggs out of the back just so I’m even ’em. None of that applies to this. Right, so I’m trying to think how would, how is my practice, how do I take the eggs from the carton and put them on the thing is the only thing I can think. And I think I’m starting with number seven Because you’re left-handed. No, ’cause I’m moving across, but I’m starting with the one closer to me than- I was debating between seven and 12. I’m going with 12. I also experience egg guilt when I take eggs out of the fridge based on where I’m grabbing from. Egg guilt, it’s a real thing. It’s a real condition. I don’t know why, it’s always wrong. Yeah, yeah. 43, 44% voted for number one. It just changed? People are still voting? Well, I’m round. Like it’s 43.8% voted for number one. Okay. 12.5% voted for 12. Wrong. 9.4% voted for three and seven. Three? Yeah. I don’t understand three, but I understand seven. You’re just like haphazard like just putting your hand down. 6.3% voted for nine, six and two. What is wrong with y’all? 3.1% voted for five and eight, and no one liked four, 10, or 11. Yeah, I could see that. I could see how two would be okay, but 10 would not be. This is so strange. I love it. Okay, how about this? Uh-oh! Oh! Oh. Oh my goodness. This is so good. Chicken leg. Because are you going back in for the same bite, or are you going in for a fresh bite? And I know definitively the answer. I’ve eaten a lot of chicken legs. Number one is where I’m going. I’m going for a new fresh bite. I wanna get that skin. Two, I don’t know why you’d go to two. You’re gonna go bone top, bone first? Yeah, that’s weird. I don’t bite in the same place. I feel like my bite is deep enough that like there’s no second bite in the same spot. That’s another thing for me. Three is moot. I go to the bone on the first bite. I would vote for four because just to the right- Where is that? Just to the right and down from three, ’cause once I’m on one sided chicken leg, I know it’s not an option. I can see there’s no four. Okay, I disagree with you. I’m going for four. It’s invisible because that’s what I do. I go down the leg and then I rotate. I’m going with number one, and I- And then one. And I think that, I think this might be the first round in which y’all agree with me. 75% voted for number one. Okay. Followed by 22% that voted for number three, and 3% that voted for number number two. Okay, these 3%. And 0% that voted for four because it didn’t exist. What is the two bites? It was invisible. What is the two bite? Is it like It’s like sucking the chicken off of it? Yeah, I don’t know what that is. What is the two bite? Now three is, yeah, okay. Yeah. All I know is that I’m hungry. Yeah, I’ve been thinking about that too. I’m hungry. Okay, this is an interesting one. I didn’t know what that was for a second. It could have been a turd for- Oh my goodness, what do you do? You walk into the kitchen, and this is there. That’s what I’m, that’s the scenario. So many bites have been bitten off this thing. And is number one? What about the piece that fell off, the boulder? Well that’s part of one, I think. You get that on the way to one. You get that little turd on the way to one. You just suck it right like a vacuum. And by the way, I do think that’s my next bite, ’cause it’s got that extra piece out there. That looks good. But here’s the thing, we’re playing a balance game with this item too. As soon as you take a bite outta one, then you gotta lay it down on its side. You think Rhett’s gonna take a bite, put something down, pick it up again and bite it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, this is in my hand the whole time. Oh, lemme take a bite, put it down and chew and just think about the next bite. That’s why the scenario was like, I walk into the kitchen, and someone else stopped eating a muffin, and I’m about to pick up where they left off. And just devour. This old muffin is probably a one bite muffin for Rhett. Is this a Otis Spunkmeyer? I’m four. Ooh, Otis Spunkmeyer. Is this a Otis Spunkmeyer? I used to get me some Otis Spunk. We had Otis Spunkmeyer in our high school. High school cafeteria. Trojan Cafe. In the middle on the island. Plastic wrap. And that number three bite, you gotta save that homie. I’m going for four, and then I’m going for three. So we have a one and a four? I would get a slice of pizza and a Spunkmeyer muffin, man. I’m feeling kind of spunky right now. Man, that was so good. Boy, you get your- I can taste that spunk. You definitely fall asleep right after lunch if you got that Spunkmeyer in you. Oh man, so fudgey. 50% voted for three. Okay. Yeah. He’s gotta save that. Is that what you would do? Suckers. You gotta save it, suckas! 28% voted for four. Hancock. And 19 voted for one. Did anybody try to dig their way into number two? 3%. That’s that’s a dangerous spot. There’s somebody messing with the polls. Y’all try next time. Yeah, come on. I’m gonna bite number two. I’m gonna burrow right in the middle of that Spunkmeyer. Oh man, well, I gotta go get a Spunkmeyer right now. Yeah, we gotta get one. You coming? Yeah, where can we get a Spunkmeyer? Let’s get spunky. I’m just gonna go out on a streak and yell for Spunkmeyer. Spunk! I literally thought I just passed out ’cause you just said the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard in my entire life. I don’t think it was that stupid. It’s funny. It’s like you opened your mouth, and like jelly beans, like a slinky came out. That’s how stupid it was. No, I know. It’s like a little clown nose just came out. Oh, now, now you’re really milking the baby. This is insane to me.
