Can we match different honeys to the flower they came from? Welcome to Good Mythical More, honey. It’s honey taste test time. Have you ever had a person in your life we have that called you honey on a regular basis? Talk about the lunch lady at Bowie’s Creek Elementary School. She would say what you want, honey, every day. What you want, honey? I loved hearing that lady talk because I associated her with food and I love food, including school food. The kids these days, they don’t like school food. They talk about, they talk crap about how bad the school food is. That really upsets me. It’s not the, you know what, the food’s not the problem. It’s the children. It’s the children these days. Mm. The children are the problem. Whitney Houston thought they were the future. I believe the children are the problem. I think they’re the past. No, they’re the problem. They’re the problem. Old news. Now, I’m excited about this because I haven’t told you about this. I have reincorporated honey into my day every single day Because of allergies? Uh, no. Because they say if you eat local local honey to your. Place. – But that is a… – It builds… Controversial claim that has not been well established by science. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it isn’t true. It just hasn’t been well established. Here’s the thing, I started doing it, because I wanted a little bit honey in the morning. It’s good. And then I saw a YouTube video where a guy was talking, singing the praises of honey. ’cause I was just like, sugar is sugar. Sugar is sugar, and the calories are bad. And then there’s the, these new studies where they’re like, just giving people honey as a, instead of sugar and all, there’s all kinds of like, awesome things that are happening. I just started doing it because… Like what? Like maybe growing gills. Growing gills, uh, you know, putting, getting roller skates on the bottom of your feet anti-inflammatory, and it’s just good for you, for, for your body. It makes you happy. Trail happy. I started doing it because it took me back to my college days at Caribou Coffee. When we would go into the caribou coffee and get the big coffee For a dollar And I’d put the honey in that coffee cause I was… You just glob it up. – I would put cream and honey in there – Cause you didn’t like coffee. – Cause I was… – Not liking coffee. Yeah. That’s how I started liking it. – We learned to like coffee in college – But put some honey in your coffee With the cream Which is the iconic thing to do You’ll be doing yourself a favor. So that’s where you’ve been consuming it on a regular basis now? Back in your coffee? And in tea – And also I got… – You put in your coffee now? I thought you were saying… Yeah. Coffee and tea and also… Yeah. Okay. Because tea sucks. Uh, the Manuka honey, the one in New Zealand and from New Zealand, pricey. I’ve been doing that too. Sometimes I’ll just see it and just get a little spoonful. Not tell anybody except myself. Well, let’s taste this first one. Of course. These are not flavored. These are like for carrot. This would be bees that have been released into carrot fields. Yeah. Which to pollinate carrot flowers. Yeah. So carrot blossoms. My uncle, my uncle was a farmer and he had strawberries that he was growing and he had bees that were in that he put out there in the fields and that those bees would get nothing but strawberries. So that would be strawberry honey, but not strawberry flavored. Okay. But it’s gonna taste like the plant, not the fruit. We have all types to choose from here. Coffee, blossom, blueberry, buckwheat, sourwood, chestnut tree, honey. But they’re, they’ve got like carrot. Carrot is supposed to be, have an almost chocolate taste That ain’t it? Chestnut tree darkens. Is it chestnut? Or chestnut? I think it’s chestnut. Or is chestnut a different thing? Chest? No, it’s just chestnut. No T there’s, I didn’t know there wasn’t a T. It’s not on your chest? Oh no. Just everywhere we have it spelled. We have it spelled without the T. It is with T, right? There’s a T. Unless there’s a different thing called a chestnut. That’s not a chestnut. Well, here it me, we lose the T But um, if you put your nuts on the wall, what would you call those? Walnuts? Put nuts on your chin. What would you call that? Chin nuts. It’s a little different than that. Um, tea bagging, um, Chestnut Tree Honey is dark and spicy with touches of smoke and leather. Not that first one. Now, that first one, this also is not sourwood because it doesn’t have an an, is it anis Anise? Mm-hmm. Or is it Anise? Star of Anise, buckwheat, malty. And spicy. I wouldn’t say spicy. Fruity, tangy, hint of lemon. Maybe. It’s also the first one, and so it’s hard to tell. It just tastes like honey to me, but it tastes like good honey. Fruity, tangy, or harvest some Guatemala captures the essence of coffee flowers. That’s meaningless to us. I don’t know what a coffee flower tastes like. I think it has a chocolatey taste almost. Okay, maybe taste a little chocolate there at the end a little bit. We’d like to think so. Moving along. I’m gonna put that there. But you should get some honey and put it in your coffee. – I’m not. – Just try it. I put honey in other things. – But honey… – Like cottage cheese And my yogurt. Oh, okay. You’re so, you’re getting it. And my finger. You eat honey. I put honey on my finger. Uh, so you don’t, so you’re telling me that if sugar was healthy for you, or sugar had absolutely no impact, you wouldn’t add it to your coffee for taste. Absolutely not. And that’s not just to spite you, but now it’s an added benefit. Oh, really? I definitely would put sugar in my coffee. Taste that, dude, that is almost not good in any way. Tastes like molasses. That tastes like a barnyard. What is wrong with that? That is wildly bad. What is… Why is it so bad? Malty and spicy? Malty? I think that’s got leather. That’s the most leather like thing. Yeah. Like chewing on a saddle? No, that almost has a, it has hints of dookie It has hints of dookie. Don’t you not? Can you not taste hints of dookie? Hints of dookie? Like sheep dookie? Yes. Hold on. Sheep dookie. Oh no. It’s the haggis we ate, man. No, no it’s not. ’cause we didn’t taste that in the first one. We’re gonna leave these out so we can read them. I went, uh, to a place and got some boba and they all, and they had it. – Uh, you know what… – Did they have dookie boba? Have y’all been to the, the, the tea, the tea place at the Huntington Garden? I was there two days ago. Oh, really? Isn’t that a wonderful spot? Wonderful. Were you underdressed? I was dressed appropriately. Seems like it would be fancy. Oh, I didn’t go in the tea place. I’m not talking about the tea house. I’m talking about the little concession stage. Yes, I did go in. There was the Boba. Yes, I went in there. Did you buy the Boba? I bought the kombucha. Okay. It was on tap though, wasn’t it? I, the one I got was in a, can they have milk tea there, they have a taro milk tea and a melon milk tea. And then this regular Thai milk tea. And then they have boba and I got the purple one ’cause it’s my favorite color right now. And I got that taro and just me and all the children that were there were drinking it. But then I, uh, I, I don’t like children though. I’ve established they’re, they’re the problem. And I tasted it. You’re keeping the problem to yourself. It was, it was so sweet. Come to me, children. But I loved it. I loved it. I, I don’t want sweetness in my coffee. I’m accustomed to enjoying the coffee with the, just a little bit of cream. Rhett, I thought of you when I was at the Huntington gardens. Yeah. What’d you think about it? I was going through the children’s maze ’cause I was with my child and I was able to walk under it. ’cause it’s like a five foot eight clearing, hold on. I walked under that too because I, ’cause I met a family that has children. I typically stay away from those. But no, I’m saying we, we a family, we, we met a family out there on purpose that they had children. And, and I was like, y’all should go to the children’s maze. After we went and to the dead. The big dead, the the corpse flower. You were trying to get rid of him. Yeah. I was like, go, maybe they’ll get lost in this maze. I felt bad ’cause it was a hundred degrees, but I did, I did go under the thing. I was like, how does somebody like Rhett go under this? By squatting Yeah. It was tough. Yeah. It’s interesting that it’s a wonderful place. You were wondering how he’d go under it and he actually gone and I was like, just days apart from you, I’d gone under that. This is crazy, man. Wow. Now are the chances if you were dogs, you could have sniffed the corner and smelled his pheromones and nobody was there. Yeah. Yeah, that’s true. This is a really good honey. I’m gonna say that it is the blueberry honey. I mean, it’s fruity, tangy flavor with a hint of lemon. I’m not gonna argue with that. I don’t know if I, I think I liked the first one better than the third one, but let’s go on to the fourth one. Have you been anywhere and thought of me? Carney? Hmm? Yeah, take your time. Let me think about it. What about Hawaii, man? What about Hawaii? When you went to Hawaii on your vacation, I did think of you a couple times out there. You thought of me a couple times ’cause last time I was there, yeah. We didn’t see each other, but… Oh, that’s good. That taste like something you put right on a cake. Hmm. Why is that so good? Because it is the, hmm. It’s just unapologetically, it’s almost like pancake syrup. Yeah. It has a mapley taste to it. Is that one of ’em? Stevie, I would’ve thought that you would’ve liked the Huntington Garden. I never said I didn’t like Huntington Garden. You said, have I been to the Tea House and gotten boba and I haven’t had that experience. Well, I just thought when I started talking about it, you would say something like, I love that place. Oh, yeah. I doubt. I mean, it’s a, it’s a great place. It’s a really great place. It’s just, it’s wonderful in the gift, the gift shop alone. Yeah. And especially when you have parents in town, it’s extra. It’s a good spot for them. Take, don’t take ’em if it’s too hot now. Yeah, but take ’em to the cactus. You’ll lose one of ’em. The cactus garden, like, can you believe that place? Yeah. The heat stroke, the cactus garden is the best. The cactus garden is just, it’s just one. When you think you’ve seen the most interesting cactus, there’s another one that’s even more interesting. And they’re all there and you’re just walking through ’em and… you know, when I was a child. When I was a problem. Um, there’s one, there’s one. There’s, I, I would’ve never thought that I could have a day of just looking at one interesting cactus after another, and that that would do it for me. Here’s the problem with Huntington though Okay. I knew you had a problem with it. You’re not allowed to touch the cactus picnic. Oh. Mm-hmm. Oh, and that makes me sad. And I get it. Like, ’cause people are crazy and they’re literary and they’re gross and they have children. You like picnic? Yeah, but it’d be nice to, to picnic there. You know, like it’s begging to be picnicked in well, but you can’t do it. I mean, you could sit on the grass though. You could sit on the grass. Would, I wouldn’t call that picnicking. But you can’t sit on the grass, huh? Well, you know what, maybe we, if you, you know, it’s called minimalist picnicking. If you pay enough, you can join the board and take over from the inside, and then we could start picnicking. Oh, that looks like molasses. It’s, it’s not. It’s very distinct. It’s not horrible. That’s sour wood. 100%. Cause it has Anise flavor. Oh yeah, yeah. Anise. That means you would like it. I do not like it. Have you met my niece? You would like her. Have you met my niece Denise. She loves anise She loves Denise. My niece Denise, loves anise She’s sucking on licorice sticks every time she can But she’s in trouble with the police. My niece. She’s been arrested at least threece My, my niece, Anise What did we say? Is it my niece, Anise, loves a licorice. My niece Denise, my niece Denise, loves Anise but she’s in trouble. She’s in trouble with the police and she’s been, yep, she’s, she’s been arrested threece, but about to be released and I’m helping her with her lease. Okay. Whoa. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. I’ve never tasted honeys so bad as these two. Huh? When you let bees go to one plant that they shouldn’t go to. Wow. Is it coffee flowers that tastes so bad? I don’t feel that one tastes like dookie as well. I think it’s malty. I think this one’s buckwheat. ’cause I think it tastes malty. But it has hints of dookie. These two have hints of dookie Chestnut tree honey. I don’t even know. That’s the leather. I don’t even know. Okay. Stevie, you have one correct Yeah. – Which one is it? – But I’ll give you a hint. it tastes like dookie. Sour wood. No, the one. Oh, chestnut, right? Mm-hmm. Okay, hold on. So the, this is not anise, my man. So hold on. So what else would taste bad? I don’t know. I wouldn’t call that malty, but maybe I’m wrong. Hold on. You know what? I don’t know. I didn’t even keep up with what I do with my spoon. That was dumb. So this might be chocolate? Yes. Okay. That’s right. Almost a chocolate taste. This is carrot. almost chocolate. Well say for the first one, you guys really liked the first one? Mm-hmm. And so, okay. Yeah, that’s not good. This one we really like, too We can put the coffee blossom on it. Now. What? Ah, I think you have two. Oh my god. Yeah. You have two. Let’s go. Let’s see what, what you have. Um, okay. A is blueberry. I would say that’s the most common one. Oh. So we’re right. Out of these that you might purchase. Okay. Then B, you’re right, it’s chestnut with a t uh, tree. Is there a warning on this thing? Chestnut tree honey. Good God. Don’t buy that. Depu. 1946 Doy Mason de Apparently it has outstanding antibacterial and wound healing properties. Yeah, I put the, the, the honey on my wounds sometimes. Just put it in your hurt holes. Yeah. Then C is coffee blossom. Okay. And that was good. This was another good one. No hints of dookie Coffee blossom. D is Sourwood. Oh really? Okay. Let’s get back in this and see if we can taste the Anise. Anise. Yep. I totally can taste it, but it’s subtle. It’s the first thing you taste, not the last. But it’s good. I mean, like you don’t even like licorice because it goes away. By the time you’ve thought about it, it’s not there anymore, which is interesting. It’s good. My niece Denise, likes to my niece Denise loves anise, but she’s in trouble with the police. Because she’s been arrested by the police because she lets out loud queefs. I don’t want to think about that, man. My niece, Denise, lets out loud queefs. No, no, no, no. Come on man. She is the loudest queefer… You ruined the game for everybody. You ruined it. She’s getting her braces off next week. Oh, that’s better. Um, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. You, you should be, I’m sorry. You should be sorry. Was E the next one that you tasted, was it dookie-ish or was it the, was it F? This is Dookie. No, no. Is it the dark one? The dark one? It’s Molasses. Molasses. With those hints of it. Malty. That’s, that’s buckwheat. Yeah. Yeah. And so Carrot is horrible. Carrot’s horrible. I can’t remember it coming back. You, you know what we’ve done for ourselves. Eating all this honey from all these different places. Pretty good. Oh, carrot’s horrible. Carrot’s awful. So carrot and chestnut. Or no go. Avoid those. Yeah, but get blueberry, get coffee blossom. Get sour wheat, and get buckwheat If you’re in the mood, join third degree quarterly or annual by September 30th to get the cockatrice pillow plush free with your membership.
