GMMore 2712: Who Makes The Best Breakfast Bowl?

Welcome to Good Mythical More. We are going to create the perfect breakfast bowls using only these choices up here. But first, this just in, they call it the Nutsack Challenge, but it’s not what you think. Right. It is indeed your scrotum. But what you’re doing with it, you wouldn’t expect. Yeah, that’s right, Bob. Because what you’re doing with your scrotum is not what you would expect. What you might expect is that you were. Stretching it. Over your head. Why did you take it in this direction, Bob? – Well, because… – I don’t want to explore all the things one can do with a nutsack. Good point, but uh, uh, we, it’s our duty as journalists to tell people that, um, uh, If you stretch it thin enough, you can put a backlight behind it and, uh, make quite a puppet show with your hands. Yeah, they’re doing lots of shadow puppets through scrotum skin. Uh, it’s, it’s, it is what you think. It is. That’s what you thought. Is that what you thought? Well, then that’s what it is. That’s what it is. They gotta be really small shadow puppets, though. Alright, who’s hungry for breakfast? That’s what they do in these, in like the, you know, the news segments. Sure. And now we have Jordan Myrick coming in to help us make the perfect breakfast bowl. Welcome Jordan. Put your scrotums away because I’m here. Yes. Never fear. No scrotums here. Thank you. I’m safe now. But, uh, I would love to keep talking about it for a little bit. Sure. I can think of no other word that’s perfect for what it is than scrotum. I think that’s true. I think it falls into the same category as like, moist and unctuous. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I’ve had a moist, unctuous scrotum. Yeah. You’ve had it? Can we stop? I’ve had it. Yours. Can we stop? Yeah, mine’s been. Got it. Moist and scrumptious, or whatever you say. Scrumptious? I’m sorry. I’m thinking about the eggs now. All right. I’ve been thinking about this. Last time we did this, if I may, Rhett. You may. Jordan posed a question. Yes, and that was, what’s happening? I just wanted to know what the rules were because sometimes I feel like I get in trouble, but then I’m like, I think I’m doing what I’ve been brought here to do. But maybe I’m not, I don’t know. Well, it’s me. The problem is me and I’ve been putting some thought into it. And I think that I’ve gotten into this spiral of defeat where I just don’t believe I can create anything. Culinarily that would um, uh, please, not only you, but anyone. I think that’s nice. I just have, I, I feel like any confidence I had just kind of withered away. Yeah. With um, and it’s not a result of your opinion, just a result of, just the way that this kind of, the way that this always unfolds. I just, I, I’ve chewed some things, and then I just kind of. Lose heart. Well, we got to a point where it almost felt like you were doing poorly on purpose. Right. And then it would make it hard for me to judge. And then people would be like, you like Rhett more than you like Link. Oh. And I was like, no, I just think Rhett is maybe trying more at the actual food part. I, I was not doing anything on purpose that was bad. Sure. Which is why it… It’s hard to hear you say that. Well, it feels like you gave up. Kind of. Right? And I I gave up, but I was, I wasn’t, I wasn’t sabotaging my dish for you. Sure. But I just, I just didn’t believe. I didn’t believe in myself. Okay, let’s do this. Let’s start before this one. Okay. Thank you. That does help. I just feel like when an editor hugs the judge before the competition, it feels. Well, we’re all friends here. I mean, it feels. I wouldn’t be opposed. If I went to a dog show. And the person and the dog went up and hugged one of the judges ahead of time. Okay, come here. If this is what you want. All right. Okay. If the judge hugged all the dogs. Everybody’s okay. Okay. Yeah. I can’t wait. I think we’re good. I just, you know, you asked a good question. I think that’s my answer. And I would not be opposed to, uh, you making the bowl and I, and I would judge it. Oh no. No. What? Why? Cause then I wouldn’t have to try until the end. Wait. That’s not trying. Wait, you just want my job? Yeah. Okay, I guess I’ll do I’ll do that if I get to make your salary. Ohhhhhhhhh. Damn! Or you can make me do it cause you’re my boss. Either way. Ohhhh, damn Link. Do you know my salary? Cause I don’t. I don’t think anyone does. Yeah. Yeah. Um, okay. What if you made it, but then you can still judge and I don’t do anything. So here’s the thing. I’ll do it. Here’s the thing, I just don’t care. – Right? You know what I mean? – Can I go first? Yeah, sure. I’m happy to do whatever. – Would you like… – You need to care. How about this? You need to care. How about this? Would you like to get the first two ingredients? No. There is no pleasing you! I don’t want it. I don’t want that. I don’t want it to be that stacked up in my favor that when it still as bad… You just want to not have to do it. No, it’s not that it’s not that I don’t want to have to do it. I want to get reengaged. We hugged too early. I’m mad again. All right, here we go. I might, I, I am going to go first though. Okay. We’ve got, we’ve got eggs here. Now I’ve made a breakfast bowl before. Sure. And we do like our eggs the same. So maybe that feels like. Right. We’ll have a lot of breakfast stuff in common. Gravy, hash browns, hot honey, cereal, breakfast sausage. So there’s turkey bacon, but there’s not regular bacon. No, just turkey bacon. So I’m gonna go with the, uh, breakfast sausage. Incredible. Because… Delicious. Meaty, a little sweet. And these are, these are a Sporked pick. Applegate, chicken, and maple. Everything is a sporked pick, as always. So chicken is, chicken is, chicken sausage is better for you than pork sausage. Yeah. It has to be, right? Yeah. I think it probably has less fat. Maybe less cholesterol? – I don’t know. – That’s some good stuff. – Somebody fact check me. – I have that at my home. I’m a fan of that. Okay, um, Hmm. Are we gonna be able to put this like, what is the melt, meltage option here? Is it like we can insert under the heat lamp for a moment maybe? At the end of this? Microwave. Okay, we can get a little microwave. Okay, then I would like the shredded cheddar. I like the shredded cheddar. Thank you very much. Yeah, it is nice to have cheese. So there’s no other Let’s see, if I’m going Hmm. I’m kind of tempted by the biscuits. I love a biscuit. My favorite form of bread. It’s a good form of bread. And grands are amazing. Amazing. Okay, I’m gonna do that. I’m gonna go with the biscuit. Which then you would want to break up. It’s up to you. I’m going to think about that a little bit. Because I’m applying myself. I find your strategy interesting, considering there was another cheese on the board. See? What? Did you know that there was another cheese on the board? I don’t pick apart your choices. That’s also a part of this. Did you know that there was another cheese on the board? Here’s the other thing. Because you said it’s nice to have cheese, and then you chose the biscuit. Yep. I didn’t see it. Okay, I’m just making sure. So, I’m going to… I still don’t see it actually. It’s too close to you. I’m going to, uh, do the risky, risky move. But I, you know what? Why not? I know you love American cheese. I’m going to double cheese! Man. You hurt me. He really screwed you. Yeah, and this is the point where I would normally lose a little bit of heart. Sure, but I don’t want you to do that. And I want you to like doing this because I want you to be happy when I’m here. Yep, yep, uh huh. Yeah, I’m not, yeah, okay, that’s fair. Um, oh shit, I don’t have any cheese. and I’ve already gone with biscuits. So now I need to, I need something in. In the absence of cheese. Yeah. You gotta go. There’s definitely an absence of cheese. I gotta go hard with I mean there’s cheese Cheetos. Uh huh. I’m not ready for that yet. Yeah, I think that’s smart. I think I need to, I have to go gravy now. Incredible choice. That’s what I would have chosen as well. Okay. And you don’t really need cheese when you have gravy. That was a good, that was a good, uh, what do they call that? Counter? – Yeah. – This is a chess match. Pre made gravy that’s actually good. That’s country gravy. It’s like whitish brown big flex. It’s delicious. It’s so peppery. – You got it from McCormick, huh? – Yes. You definitely got a good thing going over there. It could get derailed pretty easily. This looks great I would order this at a restaurant. I will say you’ve done nothing so far. What’s going on? Are you waiting? Is that part of the strat? Alright. I did that last time too. That’s my new thing is because I want to make the – assembly process as intentional as possible – Once you have everything. That makes sense to me. And I like the idea of a little cheese on top of whatever’s in there. That makes a lot of sense to me. Okay, well. Whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do? I know what I’m gonna do. Um, already? Wow, you’re really playing to win and I love that. I’m really, I’m reapplying myself. I think that’s good. I think that’s what you needed. You needed a refresher. What made you have this thought? Uh, your question. Oh, okay. Nice. You’re like, what’s wrong? And I’m like, I have to think about it. Yeah. – You talked about it in therapy. – For at least a month. Okay, good. Yep. Well, you’re doing great. Make a choice. I am going to choose Cholula. Oh, that’s what I was gonna choose! Ooh. Cause he knows I like hot sauce. Because my thing is, when I put gravy on this, I mean, there’s so many potato things, but I’m gonna mix in biscuits. Yeah. And do I really want to mix in… You know what I’ll say though. I don’t know how good Cholula would’ve been with gravy necessarily. Yeah. I think it would’ve been good though. To me it feels more like maybe, you know, you’d use like a Louisiana hot sauce, a crystal, something else. Yeah, but we don’t have crystals. – I know, but I’m just saying… – We don’t have that. – I’m just trying to be positive. – Hash browns, I’m gonna do that. Okay. Okay. Double carb. Double. Yeah, I’m carbing it up. I guess triple carb if you count the gravy. Right. What I didn’t want to do is… KG has a secret to tell you it seems like. The plate is really hot. Oh, the plate is very hot. Wow, there’s a lot of brown over there, friend. But I think breakfast, American breakfast is brown. It is. That’s the reality of the situation. Brown is for breakfast. Brown is what’s for breakfast. That’s what it is. There you go. Let’s try some of this sausage. It’d be interesting if you end up getting stuck with tater tots. That would be interesting. Or is that just more of the same? I don’t know. I mean, tater tots and hash browns are both good, so. It would be a lot. I need something. I am going to go with… The hot honey. You’re still trying to block me out of stuff. But your doubling up is going to be a little over the top that hot honey is good. I put on pizza yesterday. Do you put it on the whole pizza or just the crust? Oh, i’ll do it on the whole pizza, but by slice because I might not want a whole pizza with hot – honey on it, you know? – There you go, by slice. I like that. I’m more worried about you than I am about him at this point. Yeah, I’m walking a tightrope. There’s absolutely no texture in what you’re doing. I think when it comes to sausage, you can make an easy choice and not feel like you’re losing anything with going with chicken. It’s going to help you, um, but with all the other stuff they put in sausage, it’s, it’s still a good experience. So I’m a fan of that. Yeah. Because sausage meat, I feel like I shouldn’t be eating sausages. They’re not good for you. Oh, you’re just talking about loving sausage. Yeah, I’m loving sausage. I think sausage is I mean It’s like a hot dog, right? Like why is a hot dog so delicious? It really shouldn’t be but ultimately it is. But if it has chicken in it, then you feel better about it. Sure. A turkey hot dog. Oh, I feel great. I’m afraid… Well, i’m not gonna tell you what i’m afraid of. Okay. Yeah. Well you pointed to the sauces So I assume it’s the sauces. I’m afraid i’m not gonna tell you what i’m afraid of See I just can’t help myself. You’re being open, you’re being vulnerable, I think that’s good. I have to do something. I, I think I have to go with… I have to go with Cheetos. Fun! I think that’s a great addition. And I don’t know what Bolitas is. They’re little balls and they’re seasoned and they’re delicious. Holy crap. Oh, can I have one? What? So this is a Spanish speaking product? Mm hmm. Hola! Listen closely. It’s got some chipotle in it. That’s nice, right? A little spice, a little smoke. I think that’ll be great on what you’ve done. And it’ll add a little heat, since you don’t have hot sauce. Yep. I don’t love these. Okay. They’re um… Do you not like cumin? I don’t hate them, it’s just that there’s not as much cheese as I thought there would be. Yeah, they’re more spiced than cheesy. Okay. Texture time. Texture time. Uh, I’m gonna go with the tater tots. Great. Smart. – Classic. – Get it out of here. You know, it would be foolish to stick you with double potato at this point. That’s what I figured you were trying to do. And I don’t know if it would have been… Well, these French toast sticks are still a problem for me. You got the French Toast Sticks, the Salsa, the Turkey Bacon And Corn Flakes. Oh, God. Hmm. Corn Flakes? Why on Earth would… A little crunch, a little sweet, a little salty. Mm hmm. Shoot. None of this is really filling any needs that I have. No, but I think there’s one really easy choice. Seeing now, I don’t know the choice to see. So there’s one that just seems there are some more interesting choices. And then there’s one that seems like easier. None of these seem easier to you than the others? Leading the witness. Sorry. Yeah. See that? – It’s just not… – Put a tator tot in my mouth. I will. I will say a little feedback. It’s not helpful. Okay, because now, now it’s like, oh, my gosh. I’m failing. It’s not helping. Jordan knows something. I don’t know. – Sorry. – What am I gonna do? I thought it was real easy, but I’ll keep my notes to myself. Right. Great. You’ve made it very clear that this should be clear to me, but it’s not. Because I don’t want, I definitely don’t want this. Uh huh. And this is not doing anything for me because it’s more brown. Uh huh. I already have a meat and the corn flakes just scare me. Cause they’re gonna be on top with these balls, so I’m gonna go into turkey bacon Yeah. See but I just blocked you it’s not what you wanted that is what he wanted But it’s what Jordan wanted you to… And it’s little pieces. – It’s what Jordan thought you would pick. – Yeah. And this is good because like turning turkey into bacon is not the same as turning chicken into sausage. No, not at all. Not at all. That is not a winner. This is a winner. Well, this is good for turkey bacon. This is the best turkey bacon we found. But if you put this next to normal bacon? – Yeah. – Right. But if you put this next to regular sausage? That could still win. It gives it a fighting chance. Great. Well, this is what I was talking about. Having something with bacon and sausage is very common in the breakfast space, right? Oh. And the other one seemed a little more freaky deaky. Okay. But now I know. I made the right choice. No, no notes wanted. And I’ll keep that in mind. Yeah. Yeah. I just need you to believe in my choices. I do. I give him notes too. I told him his dish had no texture, so he got tater tots. And you know what? Speaking of texture, I will take the cornflakes. Fun. I think that’s fun. I will say this is not about me and you. This is not about like, us. – Yeah. – We’re good. Yeah. This is squarely about me and this exercise. Sure. And cooking. Yeah. I would say this is more stressful than other things we do together. I’m glad, but it’s not your fault. Thank you. That’s nice. Um, I’m glad you took the cornflakes. Oh crap. I’m gonna, I’m gonna have to stick you with the salsa. I love this salsa. Mm hmm. We brought it out before, but I just can’t do it with the gravy. I think you’re 100 percent right. So, so I gotta do a french toast stick. Yeah. Am I allowed to give that kind of feedback? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay, and that sticks me with the salsa, which I’m actually I think that works for yours. I’m not opposed to it. Yeah. Now I’m gonna ask, he asked for a microwave. Do you also want a microwave? I think you have to ask in the first 40 percent of the endeavor in order to get the microphone. I need a packet of rules for this game. Oh, maybe like a scroll? Yeah. I don’t know what I’m gonna do. Okay. I might want one, I don’t know yet. Okay. What I know is that I gotta rescramble these eggs. Sure. Now, I wanna know, when you’re going to brunch, or out to breakfast, what are you ordering? I love a good uh, breakfast burrito. Okay. Because I can, I can wrap half of it up in foil and then eat it at lunchtime. Sure. Which I like. Alright. I like, um, you doing it too, huh? I like a good soft scramble. Alright, so that’s getting mixed up nice in there. See, what I needed to do, though, was, I need to put some of this in there. Okay. So what I’m going to do is I’m going to… Because I think the hash brown needs to be chopped up. Sure. Because we got to get it in there. I don’t want to cut the tater tots though because I feel like tater tots are their own experience. Okay. So I’m not going to cut those up. That’s a choice. I’m basically making my hash browns into tater tots. Okay. I do think the structural integrity of it is very important because you could do it kind of like pot pie style. You could do it scramble style. You know, when you make a bowl that’s like a big part of it. Like at Chipotle, I like the lettuce as the very last thing. – Yeah. – Because it keeps it fresh. If you put, you know, queso over the lettuce. No, thank you. But my, my bread here is, is um, my biscuit pieces are definitely competing with my hash brown pieces. Okay. You’re really mixing it up. I got all this whiteness in there. I want all this to be mixed up. Okay, now I’m going to put a little more cheese on top of this. I’m going to ask this to be put in the microwave. and then I’m going to top it with the corn flakes after the microwave and the salsa as well. And I’m going to make a little… That’s fun. French toast thing where you’ll have you, you’ll have to pick one of those up and bite it. Got it. He’s doing the thing where you put something on the side. I have no notes. Okay. I know, but, but I, I trust you’re gonna pick one of those and eat it up with the spoon. I’ll do whatever you tell me. – What is happening to this gravy… – You gotta stir the, you know, gravy when it sits at… Yeah, there you go. There you go. I don’t think mine needs to be microwaved. Okay. Cool. Now that I’m doing this gravy thing. Great. I just want to make sure you felt like it was getting the same treatment as his. – Yeah, I mean. I’m a little… – I just want to point out that… bit nervous because mine is not in my hands right now. Others are handling it. I need less. From machinery. Then Rhett does? From my thing, yeah. – I’m gonna give it a nice coating of gravy. – Machinery. Wow. Who’s making breakfast at each of your houses in general? I’m the breakfast guy. Um, I am not making breakfast. I’ll make a mean scramble. I don’t like to wake up and feel defeated. So who is making breakfast? Uh, Christy will make breakfast on a, on a, on a strong occasion. Mm hmm. Perfect. On a strong occasion? Does that mean often, or does that mean just like… It means when the occasion is strong. I don’t know what it means. When it’s strong in the occasion. I’ve been experimenting with beans on toast. I love, very British, very delicious. Yeah, but you gotta get those Heinz beans. I love this sausage. That you can only get on Amazon. Um, yes. Mine is ready, you can go ahead and try it. Alright, now tell me how you want me to dig into this. Leave it over here so they can see it. I think, um, how long has it been microwaved? He’s waiting till the cheese melts. He’s doing you right. Okay. Bless you. I’m not going to sneeze on your bowl. Thank you. Or on any of these ingredients. Okay. I’d recommend picking up one of the french toast sticks. Got it. Maybe try to get some on it, like a little bit of gravy. Get some gravy on the french toast stick? Alright. And then you want to make the bite with everything else, because I know you want to eat everything in one bite. You might need a spoon here. Yeah, maybe spoon me. There we go. Let’s see. So chunky. KFC did this for a while. – The famous bowl. – They started making bowls. Yeah, the KFC Famous Bowl. Big fan of this sausage though. I can’t say enough about it. Okay, I think that’s everything. And then bite, bite? With chewing both at the same time? Bite, bite, chew, chew, chew. Mm. It’s kind of a right down the middle. Brown means breakfast. Okay. I think the French toast sticks are a great addition. They’re really good on their own too. That’s a good pick. Very good on their own. Everything tastes good. I want to taste this without the French toast stick just to see. Picking the gravy was a great selection because this gravy is so good you could put it on a flat tire and it would taste good. And I think, I agree, I think there’s a selling point of no cheese. So I don’t want you to forget there’s no cheese. That’s actually the first thought I had. I don’t miss the cheese at all. I do think the little Cheetos, even though you didn’t love them, I really like them and I think they give a nice little spice to break up some of the richness. My only thought is that I think the French toast sticks probably could have been chopped up and put in with everything else. I cannot learn that lesson. No, because it varies for everything though. Do you know what I mean? Like you took a swing There was a 50 chance This was better a 50% chance. The other way was better. I think this way is good. These are killer french toast sticks, though. The other way could have been great, but I also don’t know because I didn’t eat that. Alright. Well, his is gonna be horrible. This is going to be absolutely wonderful. I don’t know, while you were trying to figure out what he had done over there, I was dripping sauce and hot sauce on this. I saw it out of the corner of my eye. So, I’m going to give you the choice of a spoon. Or a fork. That is weird. Okay, I’ll do. And, uh, basically, you’ve got the texture and you’ve got three different sources of heat here. You’ve got the Herdez guacamole salsa. You’ve got the Cholula. And, uh, The bees need spicy honey. Two types of cheese, three types of hot stuff, and corn flakes. I love hot stuff. Okay. It’s hotter. They microwaved it. Mm hmm. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot. You had to use a machine for that. Depending on the machine. I will say I didn’t have any control over – how long it was… – Is it spicy too? Or is your esophagus scalded? It’s hot. Hot temperature wise. I’m going to take a little bit of a smaller bite and I’m going to blow on it. For about 30 minutes before I eat it. If it almost kills you or like, makes it where you can’t do your job for the rest of the day, then I think that’s a demerit. Well, if you were at a restaurant and they set something down this hot, you’d be like, oh, they really get it out. They really get it out here. You are right about that. I do like my food hot. That is true. Okay. Cornflakes in hot sauce. Wow. This might be the closest one we’ve ever had. Mine’s classic with a little bit of a twist. His is reaching and maybe lucky? Reaching? You have french toast and little balls on top of yours. Okay, I’m tasting one more bite of yours. It’s a hearty breakfast, it’s filling. Mine’s an intact universe. It has all the evidence of design. Not chaos. Okay. There’s no more skin on the inside of my mouth and I’m ready. Right. I’m sorry that happened to you. Yeah, I am too. This is the closest one we’ve ever had. Both are absolutely delicious and I would happily eat either one of them again. That being said, this challenge is called Loaded Breakfast Bowl. And to me, Link’s is more of a loaded breakfast bowl. Ha ha! I can do it! I still have it in me! So you, you take this one. I mean this is, this is delicious. But to me this tasted more like a scramble than a loaded breakfast bowl. If that makes sense. Yep. Yep. Yep. But both were, I mean this is just. Too much egg. Yeah, it was. It was a little heavy on the egg. Yep. I think maybe we could have used some more tater tots. You got scared. This really is like, if I ordered something called a loaded breakfast bowl, I would be like, damn, that’s loaded. And you were in Vegas. And I was in Las Vegas, and I was hungover. There we go. And I had seen a Cirque du Soleil show last night. Yeah, yeah, that’s gonna, that’s gonna get you back on track. Hey, listen, I’ll take it. – Yeah. – I’ll take it. Well, speaking of back on track. We’re back on track. You did it. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. New leaf turned. You did it. I’m very proud of you. Are you going to carry this confidence into the next time? When you have to choose second? Yeah, let’s not keep talking about it. Okay. Cool and comfy sweatsuits. Let’s talk about that. Shop the Let’s Talk About That color block hoodies and joggers now at mythical.com
