Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” We are going to experience this interesting dehydrated sauce company’s offerings, not a sponsor, and we’re gonna give an assessment. How are we gonna do that? Taste. Well, we’re gonna blindly taste them. Taste. We’re gonna taste ’em. But first- The power of taste alone. We’re going to donate $1,000 to the Association for the Study of African-American Life and History to aid in their mission to promote research, preserve, interpret and disseminate information about Black life history and culture to the global community. Please join us in giving ASALH.org/donate. Thanks for being your Mythical best. So, AWSM Sauce, apparent… I had not heard of this company until it was handed to me right now, is the world’s, according to their box, first sustainably focused sauce and condiment company. “We’re leaving the taste in but taking the plastic and water out.” So each one of these is a dehydrated pack of ketchup. And there’s two in this one. “Add a third cup of water to a shakeable vessel, add one packet…” It’s a big packet. That’s a lot of sauce. “Shake it well, for 15 seconds. You’re ready to get sauced.” That’s awesome. If this tastes good- Interesting. There’s a lot of applications. Camping, the apocalypse. But also- Camping during the apocalypse. Which is pretty much just living. Sustainability, not having to do the plastic thing. Right. And I think it’s also much less storage. One of the things that happens in most college refrigerators is the doors of the refrigerator get filled with condiments and it just becomes a condiment sea. You don’t know what’s what’s what, how long it’s been in there. It’s half eaten, whatever. This could be a solution to that problem. That’s a good point. So we’re gonna try, so we have fire sauce, we have ketchup, we have honey barbecue. Let’s start in like normal territory, like- Can we start with just the regular ketchup? You’re gonna, well, we’re gonna give you three and two are gonna be, I mean, one’s gonna be AWSM and two are gonna be other things. Okay. Are these barbecue sauce, though, or ketchup? Put them in the right order. These are barbecue. Let’s just, let’s do barbecue. That’s what- They’re supposed to be in a certain order. They are. Okay. Okay. They are. And, and, yeah, so you don’t know where the powdered one is. Go ahead and taste ’em. That smells like- That’s a dark sauce. McDonald’s. Or KC Masterpiece. That tastes like it came, that tastes like it came from a bottle. Yeah, I couldn’t say that that didn’t come from a bottle. You know why? The corn syrup. Oh, he, he’s gettin’ all corn syrupy on it. This one’s thinner. That’s bone suckin’ sauce. This is a really good barbecue sauce. It’s got flecks of stuff in it. Onions, which is one of the reasons I like it. It’s so, it is so good. What do you put that on? You put that on those ribs you made? No, I put Blues Hog on those ribs that I made this weekend, that I almost brought some for you, but then I ate ’em all. Thanks. It was three racks of ribs, right? Four. Four racks of ribs, and who was… My boys and I. Actually, I think I might have a little bit left. You want some? Yeah, yeah. Yes! I used two racks, I did Raspberry Chipotle barbecue sauce on ’em, from Blues Hog, and then the other one I did their championship blend. Blues Hog? Blues Hog. Okay. Now this one, based on what you told me- This is the AWSM. You can tell by looking at it. I like what you’re trying to do. If I was camping or about to be, if I was being chased by like a “Mad Max” type. Yeah. Outfit, I might think that was good. Like a guy with like a guitar that’s a flame thrower. Yeah, if that guy was chasing me I would eat that barbecue sauce. Is it just thinner? I can’t really tell on- No, it’s grainy. It does not taste good. That’s the thing. It’s like, it’s grainy. I mean, it packs a punch, but definitely after eating the other two, it just didn’t, it just didn’t stand up. But if it was totally isolated- To me, I would not mind- Apocalyptically, maybe? I would not mind the consistency if I liked the flavor. I mean, the consistency is not as good as regular sauce. Does the package say, like, all organic or like? Stuff that makes it not taste good? Yeah. No preservatives. There’s probably not a lot of sugar. Well, well… Added sugars, six grams. Brown sugar’s the number one ingredient. So it just doesn’t taste good, basically. You were right, the first one is KC Masterpiece. The second one’s actually Jim Beam Maple Bourbon barbecue sauce. Well they’re copyin’ bone suckin’ sauce. So you you like that, huh? I like it, too. And I like it. Those onions. Man, it tastes just like it. I like barbecue sauce in general. That’s- I could just sit here all day. That is a good sauce. Tell me what that is again. Jim Bean Maple Bourbon barbecue sauce. Yeah, that’s got, that’s some good, that’s some good stuff going on in there. AWSM, you didn’t, you didn’t bring it- Right, but you know what? We got two more tries. Two more tries. I’m sliding these across as instructed. Now I’m assuming this is the fire sauce. Mm-hm. Okay. I mean, if we just compare. Well, it’s definitely not the one in the middle. It’s- Well, hold on. It’s either of these, it’s one of these. Is it hot? Is it real hot? That’s definitely the AWSM sauce. It’s fruity. It has the same, like, graininess? Yeah. I tell you, whew, it’s hot. It is hot though. It is. That helps. That helps. Oh. Because you forget about what it tasted like before it got hot. Shoo me. It doesn’t, this one doesn’t taste that bad, but I’m assuming that these are gonna taste better. Listen, but you gotta innovate. You gotta start somewhere. Wow. You got good branding. Yeah. I really like the, um- I like the idea. I like the logo. I like what you’re trying to do. Whoa! Is it real hot? What? That’s super familiar. What is that? Tabasco, dude. That’s not Tabasco. Well you should know, why you asking me, sauce man? That’s not Tabasco. Oh, gosh. Why is it so hot? I’m about to blow my top, man. What’s this third one? Your stomach’s rumbling. Yeah, ’cause it just, the AWSM sauce just hit it. Yeah. Wow. Wow, yeah. It’s really gettin’ goin’. Are you gonna turd yourself? Let’s find out. This one? That one’s, I like that one. This one tastes… That one tastes good. The best, maybe? I don’t like the middle one at all. No, I love the middle one. So to go back to what we believe AWSM sauce is. Yeah. Yeah. It’s… It’s just got a, it’s got a… It’s the flavor profile. Grainy. The graininess is part of it, but- I just don’t, that’s tough for me. It’s a better flavor profile than the last- No. No, it’s still not, just not good? Yes. It’s better for a hot sauce than barbecue was for a barbecue sauce. But is it better than the third one? But still, it’s like lacking in flavor compared these two? No, it’s the worst of these three. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The middle one is Louisiana hot sauce and then the other one is Old Bay hot sauce. Man, I don’t remember Louisiana being that hot. Put it on some fried chicken. That must be a hot one. Whew. The hot version. Ho. Again, we like what you’re doin’, AWSM, but, you know, sometimes when you’re, when you’re on the front lines, you get shot. Hey, listen, AWSM, AWSM people. We’ve done this probably too many times in our career where we did something a little bit too early and it wasn’t very great. Right. It wasn’t, it wasn’t great. And then we learned, we learned some lessons, you know? But hey, at least we tried. At least we were first to do- We made it, you can too. To do something. Ooh, my nose is just trying to run off my face. Where are these folks? Because I feel like we’re kind of ripping ’em a new one. Well, we’re being nice about it. Westchester, Pennsylvania. AWSMSauce.co. Because… I don’t know. Let’s, let’s just try ketchup. So you gotta avoid going to Westchester, Pennsylvania. Yeah. I mean I’m, we’re making enemies. Yeah. Making enemies. It’s good for two months after mixing. This is constructive criticism. This is not, we’re not making enemies. We’re pullin’ for you. We want this to work. Now… Meow, meow, meow. This is not immediately clear which one is which. If I had to guess, I’d guess it’s the one in the middle, but let’s try. It’s tangy. Especially after you’ve eaten hot sauce. You eat ketchup right after hot sauce, boy, that really tang, it’ll tang you up. I think that’s just regular hot sauce, ketchup. It’ll tang you up one wall and down the other. Thicker but not grainy. It’s very different. Deeper. It’s got a darker taste. I like that one better. I definitely like that one. But I’m not getting that consistency, the telltale sign of an AWSM. Yeah, but I think it is the AWSM one, the one that you really like, I think is. I think it is, too. Because- It’s thicker. It works with ketchup. I don’t know why it didn’t work with barbecue sauce. The third one is a really good ketchup. But yeah, just to, just to get a little bit more. I’m gonna have to dis, kind of a hard disagree with you on this. If I was, if I was taste testing ketchups and it got to this one in the middle? Yeah? I’d be like that’s not a good ketchup. It’s better than the first one, in my mind, but now that I went to the third one, I’m having trouble. I think the first one and the third one are pretty solid ketchups. This one’s better. This one’s probably Heinz. This first one’s probably Hunt’s, or like- This one’s more- Or like a Kroger or somethin’? This one’s more vinegar-y, the first one. And this one’s AWSM. And when I say AWSM, you know what I mean. But this is the best y’all have done. It’s a little fruity puree. I’d put that on a burger and maybe people wouldn’t notice. Yeah, I would be- Especially if they were being chased by a gang of people who had other people on leashes. So yeah, the middle one is AWSM. Yeah. The first one is Heinz but it’s sugar free. Ah, yeah. And then the third one is Whataburger. What… Whataburger. We got somethin’ from Whataburger? Yeah. Do we have that packaging? Whataburger? Now we- The best thing about Whataburger is their logo. We’ve, we’ve ripped so many new ones from Whataburger. I’m wrong about that. This is not the logo I was thinking about. Maybe it’ll take some of the, it’ll take some of the heat off of AWSM with how much trash we talk about Whataburger and how mad the second largest state in the entirety of the United States gets mad at us for it. We just haven’t been impressed yet. I’m open to being impressed by Whataburger. And you know what? I was impressed by your ketchup. So there you go. You’ve done something right today. And I can hear the comments right now. Well, you don’t need to get the burger. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What’d you get? What did you get? Well, I got the Whataburger. Yeah, don’t do that. It’s like, that’s what we’ve heard. But back to- From Whataburger fans. No, don’t get the burger. Back to the AWSM people. What? I mean, first of all, check this out. Okay. Uh-oh, uh-oh. You know? You can’t do that with every ketchup, see? Yeah you can. No, you did it with that one. Can you, can you do it? Yeah, you can do it. You can do it with every ketchup. You can do it with every ketchup. You can do it with every ketchup, but this is by far the best tasting thing that they’ve got at the AWSM company right now, in our opinion. I mean, we’re just two guys. We’re just two guys on the internet. You know, you gotta get it out there. Do a taste test. Yeah, it’s really a shame that we’re- Go to a college campus. We’re the ones like giving an opinion on your product to like a million people but we are and- No, this is a More, not a million people. Yeah, less than that. Yeah, less than that. But they’re, but they are very aligned to what we’re saying. And I’m just sorry that we’re saying that this, you’re not ready. You’re not ready for the big leagues. But I love your, I love your mentality. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I believe in what you’re doing. Yeah, yeah, we totally believe in it. I just think it’s gotta taste a little better. Yeah, yeah. Back to the drawing board on the taste part. Now I, I’m gonna, this is one of those things where I’m gonna wake up at 2:00 AM and feel like crap for what I just said. I’m sorry guys. I think you’re awesome. Everything, everything else is great. The branding, the concept. You’re gonna get it right. You’re gonna get it right. And we’re gonna, we’re here for it. Yep. We will invest in it. We are ready. Mail is open. These are not cookies. These are cookies that fell into a Chernobyl, you know, radioactive waste vat. They look beautiful. They’re beautiful, and then like- Grotesquely beautiful. Came out and were branded by Jojo Siwa. Like, I don’t know how to describe it.
