GMMore 2634: Who Makes The Best Loaded Fries?

Welcome to Good Mythical More. We are going to make amazing chili cheese fries. Well, they might not have cheese. They might not have chili. Depends on what we take in this tournament. For Jordan from Sporked to judge in a moment. We have to boogie down now, which is gonna be very difficult. We’re blocked in here. My hair is actually hitting the. And now my head is hitting it. That’s why I have hair up there, so that I hit my head less. But it still happens. Come on in, Jordan! Jordan! Hello! Jordan! A lot is happening! A lot. I’m trapped! – Is happening. – A lot is happening. And so much has already happened, too. Oh, that’s what I’ve heard. So much has happened and so much more is gonna happen. I can’t wait to see it. I can’t wait. So much more is gonna happen. And I’m gonna taste it. I’m gonna, I’m gonna wet my palate with a. I thought that these could give you worms, right? Isn’t that the thing? You’re not supposed to eat raw potatoes because it can give you worms? They can kill you, yeah. You got some worms? Well, I’m not going to eat it if it’s going to give me a worms. But, I’m going to tell you. A worms. I’m tasting it. And it tastes, something that could taste so good really tastes bad before you do something to make it taste good. Potatoes really need to be cooked. Yeah. Really. Gosh. I always say that. Jordan, how have you been? Good, I’ve missed both of you. I feel like I haven’t seen you in a second. Happy summer. It has been a while. Yeah. The summer is here though. I know, I’m excited. You got any big plans? Sorry. I’m going to Maine. I’m done. Because my best friend is from there, so we’re gonna go see his family and go swim in the lake. Beat the heat a little bit. Beat the heat a little bit. I hate the heat, so. I like the idea of Maine. I think you would like it. I’ve been there. Oh, okay. Wait, what? I did like it. Oh, so you like Maine? It was very brief. Okay. So I. I spent a little more time in Maine, last year. Did you like it? I love it. I love Maine. I’m done. I’m a Maine man. Yeah. Okay. I love the people. I love the atmosphere. Sure. I like a lake. I like lobster. I like a whoopie pie. What about chili cheese fries, though? Chili cheese fries are good. I don’t know if they’re Maine staples. Absolutely not. What, so we got, I mean, we don’t have anything. We have to start with the stuff. – Yeah. – Who starts? Well, you’ve won the last 400 times. – So, let me go first. – Oh, come on, come on. And I need you to win this. Because people online are starting to think that I don’t like you because you keep losing these. Well, that’s. And that’s not why. And that’s not why. I know that’s not why. I like you a lot. We really like each other. I would love for you to win this. What do you mean people? You know what? I’m getting, you know, messages, it’s rigged, you just don’t like Link, you know, like, that’s what I’m hearing. But Jordan is just honest. And you have not been doing a good job. About the way they feel about these dishes. I own it all. So, let’s do it! Alright, I’m gonna go first, then, is what you’re saying. Yes. And it’s either the hand cut fries or the waffle fries. For the same company. They’re delicious. Lamb Weston bakes. You love these? Unbelievable frozen french fries. I think, well see here’s the thing, a waffle fry kind of behaves like a nacho, so you can get that other stuff. I’m going for the waffle fry. I love that strategy already. Beautiful And, so you can air fry these I assume and they’re amazing. I’ll go with the hand cut, just so I don’t get stuck with no fries. Smart. And these are all Sporked picks, yeah? So like you like all this stuff. Yes, as always these are all Sporked picks. So the Idaho brand, Idaho has its own brand? No, the brand is called Lamb Weston and they’re grown in Idaho. Okay, they’re grown in Idaho. So what do I want next? I think for my next layer, I want some sort of. Chili? Oh, you’re doing it like pizza, like deep dish pizza style. You’re doing cheese and then chili. Okay, yeah, you’re right. I’ll go ahead and go with chili. No, I didn’t say that. I was just asking. Turkey chili, or chili con carne. So that’s chili with carne. Yes, meat, beef. Steak? – I’m gonna take this one. – Beef. Dennison’s Original. Tell us about that. It’s a very, very good canned beef chili and it has beans in it, which is how I like my chili. Sue me. I agree. I’m a bean guy. Yeah. But not on a burger. But I also. Why not? That’s, that’s where we part ways, I guess. Okay. But I also, I have a tendency to listen. That’s one of the things that I do. And I know that you, like turkey chili more than you like beef chili. I do, you are correct. Cause I pay attention and listen. That’s true. Like, did Jordan say that earlier? I don’t eat red meat unless I’m at work. And I’ve, that’s, that’s been forever. And it’s come out maybe three times in this format. It’s also always brought up by you. Right. Yeah. Always taken advantage of by me. Yes. I love that. Maybe one day I’ll hear it. Yeah. Did you get a haircut? I did, I got a few inches. It looks nice. Off. It looks nice. It was just, you know, I call it the summer cut. Sure. And, cause you never know where I’m going to be this summer. That is a dark chili. Yeah. Yeah it is. It’s nice and seasoned. But this looks great too. Both of them so far look like chili cheese fries. And there’s not a lot of meat in it. Sure. Don’t worry. It tastes delicious, it’s just not my personal regular eating style. Dennison’s is a brand that I’m not familiar with. Yeah, we weren’t either until we tried it and it really knocked us off our feet. That’s good. That’s good. Hearty. We’re going to need some extra forks. Probably. Yeah. It’s your turn. So we’re ready. Okay. I’m going to go. I think I, I do need to go cheese because salsa con queso. And then down there we’ve got. Mexican four cheese blend. I do want to know, these are not being heated in any way after this, correct? Correct. Yeah. So that’s why I gotta go with the. I gotta go with the queso because you wanna melt that four cheese blend. Well, I’m gonna take advantage of the hot chili that I got right now and give me that Mexican four cheese blend! You’re trying to use the speed to your advantage. We all have a chili and we all have a cheese, so I feel safe. Right. We are officially eating chili cheese fries regardless of where it goes from here. Nothing truly blasphemous has happened yet. Blasphemous? Blasphemous? You said blasphemous, right? Yeah. I was listening. I heard you say it. That’s a word, right? Yeah. Okay. The way you said it, it didn’t, I did question it, though. What do you think it is? Did you say blasphemous? You look like you have no teeth when you do that. Blasphemous. What, how would you pronounce it? Blast. Already wrong! Ain’t no T in it. Blasphemous. “Blastphemous”, I think, is fun, but I don’t know if that’s a word. “Blastphemous”. “Blastphemous”. I’ve had this before, this is good. Delicious, we love this stuff. Melt! Melt! Breathe hot air onto it. Melt! Breathe hot? Breathe hot air on it. You want him to breathe on your? I’ve sucked your whole hand. That was a test. There’s no, at this point, I already have whatever I could get here at this office. There’s some melting happening on the bottom side of that. So, I just saw a piece of cheese go. Okay, a little movement. Coleslaw. We’re working on a little tool. Oh, okay. – Fire. – But no promises. Fire? Great. Yeah, we’re trying to make a fire. Yes. Well, crap. Now that I’ve made a decision based on the fact that we didn’t have it. Yeah, but you’re, you’re, you can take advantage of the little tool too. Yeah. I think you made a great choice. You made the choice that I would have made. There you go. I’m gonna save the sauces. Cause I want that to be on the top. Coleslaw? That seems a bit strange. I’m never choosing olives because I wouldn’t do that to my worst enemy. Okay. So, I’m definitely not gonna do it to you. My worst friend. I mean, you’re not an enemy. I tried to, I tried to make it better. We’re friends. You know, this is reminiscent of a lot of the ways that you referred to the Mythical crew on the tour, including the multiple times on your birthday. Where you listed the other people that you would rather spend it with, but you phrased it in a way that was supposed to be congratulatory towards us for getting to spend it with you. I think specifically when I heard you say, listen, because I can’t be with my family or my close friends, I am so happy that I’m with y’all. I was like, that may have been better unsaid is what I was thinking at the time, but Stevie really jumped all over it. Yeah. It was said three times that day. All right. Well, now that I’m your worst friend, I’ll keep that in mind while judging. You’re not my worst friend. I was trying to, what did I say? I said. You said you’re not my worst enemy. You’re my dot, dot, dot, worst friend. Well, you’re not my best friend. Okay. What are my other options? Just a friend. There it is. We found it. That’s what I meant. Yeah. All along. I’m your employee and I’m your friend. Work friend. Work, yeah. Let’s. It’s hard. Don’t get me in trouble. Let’s be clear. Which I’ll say you also made very clear that we were all your work friends. When you were speaking to the phone, speaking in the phone. Yep. And you said, I’m saying hi to my work friends. Except for Rhett, he’s my real friend. Yeah, I was there for that, too. That’s so mean! Actually, it’s not mean. It’s just true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I was on the phone, who you talking to? My work friends. Yeah, yeah. We don’t. Except for Rhett. He’s my real friend. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That second part, so your work friends aren’t your real friends. Stevie’s not your real friend? Oh, God! Stevie’s my real friend. He already apologized in the main episode. Jordan is my real friend. Stevie’s my real friend, Rhett’s my real friend. A lot of people around here. I love KG, Hitch. Love Chappie, love Liv. If you were to ask me, where do you know this friend from? I would say, oh, from work. But they’re still a real friend. They’re still a real friend, yeah. But, yeah, a work friend is a real friend. I didn’t say Rhett was my real friend. Is that what I said? Yeah. Listen, you and I are work friends. It’s not about what. Stop. Okay, I’m making a strategic decision here to A, change the subject, and B, move on to my next ingredient. Great. And I am choosing, because I think this will have such an impact on flavor, and it’s where I would go at this point. I’m choosing the Yellowbird Habanero Hot Sauce because I think that that is distinctly different than sriracha, which is not where I want to go. I love that. I wanted that because the packaging looks cool, but we’ve learned that sometimes the cooler packaging is not as tasty. No, no, this stuff is great. Both of you are right. This stuff is great, but a lot of times the better packaging is the worst deal, the worst taste, but this stuff is really, really good. Let’s, let’s. You wanna taste a little? I want to taste. Open wide! Let me make a decision first. Great. Sriracha? You wanna taste some? Now, I’m stuck with that. I’m stuck with the sriracha. It’s strong. And I will to dot the top of it. That was too much. Sorry! Sorry. Gracious. Sorry, just giving you a work friend amount. Work friends. I’ll do some pre-melting. Okay. What am I? Oh gosh, that’s hot. Pickles. Pickles? That’s fun. Oh, there we go. Doritos. Heads up coming in, a little melt. I’m going to go with the Cheetos. Yes. Cheetos? Cheetos Cheddar Jalapeño. These are unbelievable. They’re so great. I love them. Good strategic choice, because you know I like these. These are so good. You don’t want to burn the cheese, you want to melt the cheese. Now, do you think it’s going to solidify before I eat it? I’m going to do it again. Got it. Whoa, no crushing or anything. Just whole Cheetos. I just wanted, before I got to cold ingredients, I wanted to be able to have some meltiness. I’m not doing good. Interesting. No, it’s all, all of this is just interesting. You know, the irony is, I’m trying so hard, you know? That is ironic. . Alright, it’s your turn. Okay. Okay. – Now. – That was hot. Ooh, that was hot. My nose is running. Oh my gosh. I, it’s gonna start getting weird here in a second. Okay. Start getting weird. You know what? I’ll take the Doritos Tapatio. Okay! And I will, do the crushing of them. A little tit for tat there. Chip for chip. This is a great Doritos chip. Almost one of our best flavored Doritos. Yeah, we love these. So, how are you crushing these? Hand crushed. Okay. Hand crushed. It did win. It’s up in the rafters. Oh, it did win. To your left. Yes, it is. Oh yeah, it is over there. So we’re doing a crush, we’re doing a sprinkling. So should I have done that? I guess I should have. Beautiful. I’ll give you each a tip right now, from what I’m seeing, midway. Cause I want the best for everyone. Dry. Wet. Do with that what you will. Dry. So. Wet. I need a dry thing, you need a wet thing. I have a, you’re talking about the corners? Are you talking about the coverage? Or are you talking about the nature of it? The nature of it. I can’t say anymore without feeling like I’m cheating. So I just wanted to say one word to each of you. I just don’t know why I would put pickles on this. That seems strange to me. You don’t think that would be good? Chili and cheese and pickle? You never had a chili cheeseburger? Yeah, but, I guess. I’ll try it. You seem to want it. No, I’m just. Oh, snap. I think pickles is a great choice. That’s where I wanted to go next. Pickling Company? What are these? Dilly Bites? They’re made in a package, so I guess you can like eat them in the car? There’s water in there. Yeah, like all pickles! Well, you said eat them in the car! That’s how I eat it in the car! Why would you pour something in your hand while you’re driving? You drive it with your knees? You’re crazy, man. Okay! You’re crazy. Yeah, they taste good. Okay. Okay, how do I do this? Alright, again, I’m following my own instincts at this point. And I am gonna get a little wetness here. Okay. Black olives. Delicious. You can have them. I know Link doesn’t like them. I know Link doesn’t like them. But I love them. They’re great. And I know he wouldn’t choose them anyway, so. That’s my one, I’m like, I don’t know if that’s the best strategy call for you, because he never would have chosen them. Right. But I think taste wise, it’s great. It’s a nice color on there. I kind of need that color more than you. The black olives? Yeah. Okay. Careful with the juice. Man, that’s, that’s saucy. Ooh, that’s tough. It should give you a little. You should taste it. Ooh, it’s hot. Yeah, it is hot. Okay. But my other option was coleslaw, which if I’m stuck with coleslaw, I’ll do it. Okay. So, now it’s your turn. Yeah, I know. I’m just already at a point where it’s like, I would not eat this. Got it. Because of pickles? Just in general. It just looks horrible. Okay. I think it’s cute. I mean, it just looks so sad and strange to me. I think the whole Cheetos do make it look a little freaky. Coleslaw and sriracha. That’s all we’re down to. Those are the last two. All right, well, I know I’m already wet, but coleslaw is wet, and sriracha is wet. I’ll go with the hot sauce. And I’ll go with the coleslaw. I think that’s smart. I’m doing a drizzle here. I think the coleslaw would have made this really wet. Yeah, we can’t do that. Unacceptably wet. And then this is gonna, this is gonna bring it together. I love that. This is interesting. You got the coleslaw. Yeah, I’m just stuck with it. You did a lot of black olives. I feel like, not to put you on blast. This is not the first time I’ve told you that’s a lot of black olives. You want to put him on blast? Well. What did we say? Blastoma? What was that earlier? But the thing is. “Blastphemy”. “Blastphemy”? You don’t want to blast. I don’t want to put you on “blastphemy”. I feel like to answer that critique. Okay. I feel like fries, you have so much power of choice as you are navigating this dish. Sure. And you can just kind of let them fall off and sort of meteor them yourself. I’m a huge fan of them. All right. I really like them too. I’m just. And I just thought it wasn’t wet enough and now I’ve got, I’m so, it’s so wet. These are wet now. I think he did a better job with coverage than you did, I think this is like what’s going on here. Can I tell you what? Yeah, tell me. So, I think, my strategy when making a plate of nachos is to leave stuff uncovered on the side so you can start by taking a bare thing and getting the toppings off of it because it’s so thick to begin with. I think forks are acceptable for a fry though. I do agree with that. I fundamentally don’t agree with you on that, but I understand the technique behind it. Oh you, so don’t use a fork then. Well just being like taking a bare french fry and then, okay so watch this, we’ll do Rhett’s. Well, I said nachos. Okay, but this is, right? You said you did the whole same thing for this. So it’s kind of like, it’s hard, you know? It wasn’t, it wasn’t well thought through. I take full responsibility. I don’t know. Well. Chompy, chompy, chompy. I was gonna say, it doesn’t, it’s not spicy at all. You forgot the drizzle, dude. It was supposed to be the last. Do you get penalized for that? So you’re, you’re still doing a drippy drip cause it is hot. It’s hot as crap. Versus a dribble. I meant to wait to the end for this because I, because it was a thought, this flavor strategy. All right. Give it a taste. Give it another shot. Another shot. You think that’s allowed? I can taste his again? Yeah. Yeah, I told you, it was just a complete miss. That’s very generous of you. So nervous today. I don’t believe in myself. So I want, I want, you know, I want it the way he wants it. Okay. All right, here we go. I’m gonna do my, I’m not gonna forget my drizzle. That makes a big difference. That right there. Visually, this is what’s bringing it together. I think it’s stunning. Oh gosh. Whoops. How are you going to do it? Okay, let’s do. What are you looking for here? I want to get some of everything. I got to get a pickle. I got to get a Cheeto, got to get some sour cream, some sriracha. Okay. This is big pieces. It needs to erode a little bit. This is the butt of the pickle. I don’t want that. You know what I mean? Yeah. Nobody wants that. Okay. A lot of juice in the pouch, too. A lot of juice in the pouch. I like the ring of that. I’m just gonna. The winner is Link! But why? You won! I don’t even want to wait to tell you. You don’t seem excited like I thought you would. I didn’t believe in it. It’s so good! Yours are too dry. I’m glad I’m back in this. It’s not that I didn’t try, but halfway through, I was just like. I also love the pickles! That queso really, really helps a lot. My favorite thing here is the pickles, and then the fact that I won is my, is my worst favorite thing. Okay. The sour cream, that’s a big, that’s a big, that’s a big advantage, isn’t it? Oh, snap. I think I thought I would like, scream that you won, and then everyone in the studio would be like, yeah! Yeah. And then you would be really excited. That’s not the vibe today. And, absolutely. And that makes sense. I haven’t been in this room all day, so. – Right. – I get that. So. That’s not the vibe today. I took a risk. Clearly it didn’t work. Yep. You’re on an island right now. I’m not even on it. That sucks. That’s, I would love to feel supported, you know? Here, wait, wait, wait. Okay, wait, wait, wait. Let’s try it. Let’s try it. Thank you for choosing me. The winner is Link! What? I’m so relieved to be back in this! Yes. Do you see how that just felt better? And I feel like next time I could do it again. We believe in you.
