We're testing edible spoons. Welcome to Good Mythical More. An edible spoon. It's a thing I've heard about. What? I don't think I've ever experienced it. I think one that you, you consumed at least one edible spoon on this show. I, I have a vague memory of like tomato soup. Not in there situation. Yeah. So what's this? But that was back when the edible Spoon tech wasn't as. Awesome. Yeah, these are very, very nice. They're very, very hard and sturdy. I mean, okay, well, they break when you hit 'em on a desk, but that's not what they're for. They're for using. In your hand, they're kind of like N wafer, but this one is vanilla flavored, right? Yes. That's vanilla. And the first set are from a company called Incredible Eats, and it says by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in our oceans By weight. You can help preserve nature by switching from plastic and eating your spoon. Our neighbors in the ocean deserve it. Make your next picnic or party as incredible as you are. And their main ingredients are wheat, oat corn, chickpea, and brown rice. And all the spoons are dairy free and non GMO. And this is the vanilla flavor. Should eat a little bit. It does taste good. The spoon itself, you let it sog up a little bit, you know, I wonder how long it tastes. Cereal. I'm gonna let it, I'm gonna let that one sog. Cereal and pudding. Great combination. See what happens. You're not gonna like that. It's a bad kind of pudding. Yeah. I, I'm not even, I, I'm testing the SOG here. Still very hard. It's. I don't know if it, oh man, it's really hard. I don't know if it's gonna get soggy. Oh yeah, I already did that, man. They are hard. I could have warned you, but you didn't. But the taste is good. Vanilla spoon eats chocolate ice cream. My real question, it really does come down to how quickly does it sog and. No signs of Sogging? No. I mean, they really packed it in there. Really nice. And even if you want to eat some of it, you can still use it as a spoon. Oh yeah. It's super sturdy. And now it's more of a, I don't know, it might cut the inside of your mouth or your, your, uh, prison mate. Yeah. It's a shiv. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Boy. Yeah, you couldn't, you couldn't give this, you couldn't put this inside of a book. During your conjugal visit, if you know what I mean. I think, I think you might could get this into a prison. How long is a conjugal visit? Look that up please. A depends how long it's been since your last one. That's true. Alright. Sog check. Um, I don't want to. Into the chili yet. Put this one into the chili. I mean, I would never do that. What? Well, we'll see what, what, what other kinds we got? This is oregano, chili flavor. Yeah. See, that's perfect for the chili. So this is the same brand, it seems like. Yeah, same brand. Look at that. Because when you lick it, oh man, there's a little bit of you. Just like the chili, is that what you're saying? Yeah. I love chili. I love chili. With beans like that, that's, that is nice that as it starts to disintegrate, I mean, it's not really disintegrating. No, it would hold up. I mean, look at that. So it doesn't really, how much is, how much is a, a set of them, like 12 of them do we know? But let me see, because I'm not joking. I gotta get into this because. Huh? Mm-hmm. 15 bucks for 50. That's not bad for 50 of them. Yeah, and I mean, you can, I mean, obviously you're not gonna like use 'em beyond one meal, but no wash, no trash if you eat it, how many calories is one? How many calories do I have to add it? How many counts? Yes. You have to add it. It counts. It's not like eating off of somebody else's plate. This is your own spoon counts. I am also trying to figure out at what point do you eat the spoon? 20 to 25 calories per spoon. Basically nothing. So, I mean, I'll take gummy vitamins sometimes and exceed that, but when I'm done using the spoon, if when I've eaten all the chili I want, do I then want to eat a spoon? Let's find out. You know what I'm saying? All right. Let's just assume that the chili's gone. There is flavor in it though. Yeah, there's flavor in it, but it's just not my idea of like a dessert, eating a savory spoon. But dishes, one of the worst parts of dishes is when you gotta figure out how to get all the utensils in the thing, and then. And then you get 'em out, and then you gotta put, and then you gotta figure out what they go in. And if you've got, if you're like my family, you've got three different kinds of forks and three different kinds of spoons because you've mixed silverware up over the years. And like, I don't, like, is there a system here? I don't wanna think about that. I mean, if that, I just want to eat a spoon. If that's the case, then just drink the chili. Please don't ruin everything for me and everyone else. Like I was enjoying that chili. And then you just stuck your lips right in it. Well we been, you've been double dipping a spoon. Yeah, but you single dip that one. I'm going to eat the part where my lips were. So you can keep eating the chili 'cause you like it so much. Um, what was your question? Oh, no, of course. Uh uh Thank you Chase. Yeah, chase got me my own chili. So on a second I thought, I'm glad you did that. So did the vanilla spoon taste, you said it tastes like vanilla wafer. Mm-hmm. And this one, does it taste like a cracker? It tastes like oregano. Oregano, but it's not offputting. It's like a nice amount of seasoning. Yeah. If you gave me a cracker like this, this surprising amount of seasoning, I would be like, that's a nice cracker with my chili. Let's try another one when you're, this is black pepper from the same company. Ooh. Blink. This will get you in it. Yes. Uhhuh black pepper. Now they're not all perfect. See that first? I'm just gonna lick it. Not nearly. I I can't taste the pepper yet. Like the oregano was immediate. You talk about, Hmm. It's subtle. It's very subtle. Tastes. This one tastes like cardboard. It doesn't smell like black pepper in case you're worried. 'cause you might be, does black pepper smell? I don't know why this is turning into a QVC segment, but. In case you're worried that if all you have is the black pepper and you want to eat your ice cream, if you think that would be a bad experience. It's not. It's not. It's not. Whoop that just happened. Of course, that happens to me a lot and that's why we have 50 in a pack. That's why we sell 50 in a pack. Getting rid of that. Now, I'm gonna try this one. Now we've conspicuously avoided the chicken noodle soup. Let me see. That's still hard, but I bet it would be really easy to bite through right now. Get a backup. This is a backup. Soaking. I'm gonna put a, I'm gonna put a black pepper in here to just wait, and then I'm gonna use a different one to eat. I'm disappointed in the. Lack of pepperiness in the Black Pepper, but, and it's really hard. I mean, I don't, they thought about this a lot. How do they make it so hard? I'm interested to see how these compared to the other brand that you're trying, like in terms of hardness and shape and flavor, now bring in another brand. So this is Flavor FOS with a z. And their thing. It says that it's all natural, local and sustainably sourced ingredients that are a hundred percent compostable. But the origin story is more about when you're at like a party and you have a cocktail in one hand, and then you get an hors d'oeuvre and then you're holding something. Oh, I've been there. Yeah. And they're just like, why not? Why can't you just eat it? So this is coconut curry flavored. This is thin. In fact, I bet you I can bite this like a cracker. No problem. See. These are also more expensive. $33 for 36, they're making these almost a dollar a piece. Mm-hmm. To have an hor d'oeuvre in it, not to be used as dip. Because I mean, even if I try to take it through the, see, look, I didn't, you know, it's just that. Were you playing that up? No, I wasn't playing it up. Oh, see, I wasn't playing that up. I guess also, if you were at a party and you had the first brand spoons, it would be really awkward for you to stand and chew on hard wood while you're talking. Now what I just did, this is nothing but for parties. I took a bite of the chili and I just bit this spoon off, and that was pretty exquisite. Mm-hmm. But it's a dollar a bite. Think about how quickly that gets expensive. This is. Only, only parties and right now 'cause we got 'em. Oh, do you got another flavor of these? Yep. The next one is cornbread. Oh, cornbread. Very nicely with the chili. Look at, look at how different it is. No curry corn bread. Now this, this is gonna be great in the chili. We eat chili every time. And miss, what did you say about the taste factor of just the spoon? Because pretty nice. You were talking about texture and hold, but in comparison to the first brand, is the taste better of these? No, it's just much easier to eat. Okay. So it has a similar, like mild cardboards. Yeah, I think it tastes like a, A cracker. This one tastes just like a cracker. It doesn't taste, like you said, cornbread. I love to take a piece of cornbread. Doesn't taste like cornbread. Put it in a bowl. Let's put chili on top of it so no one else knows. Mm-hmm. I got cornbread in this chili. Hide it under there. Mm-hmm. I like that. Um, see how this is doing. I like these, but they're definitely not as practical as this. This is my old spoon. It's just been sitting in my chili. This has been sitting in my, um, chicken soup. Totally intact, totally intact again. Huh, man, we would kill on QVC. That is our backup plan. We would kill, I got my mom back for Christmas. I, I brought my mom into the streaming age. I was like, mom, I'm gonna get you YouTube tv. You won't have to use your direct DirecTV anymore. And, and, uh, it's, it'll be a better experience. I'm gonna get you Netflix. I'm gonna get you all the other ones that you want. Mm-hmm. And I couldn't. And, and I was setting it up and I could, and she and I, I just looked over at her and she was doing this. Oh, she was overwhelmed. She was, I was like, listen, mom, you, you can learn this. It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be totally fine. And then she was like, well, and I'm, I was like, it has all the channels. Mm-hmm. And you can save everything. Just, just how you used to, but easier just by the click of a, of a, a plus sign. In a better user interface. Slow down. That's what she was thinking. Oh, slow down. This is too much change, honey. And and I was like, you, you'll be fine. And then she hit me with the clincher. Oh, I thought she hit you. She's never hit me. Well, she's never spanked me either. That explains a lot. She hit me with a clincher and she said. Well, does it have QVC? And I was like, yes, of course it does. I didn't know if it did, but I'm pretty sure yes. And then I found out, look right here, mom QVC got it. Case closed. She's like, well, does it have QVC two oh and Q VVC three? What? And I'm like, mom, you watch three QVCs. Yeah. And multiview, and you gotta have all of them. It didn't have the other two. And I was like, well, they're selling you something and then you flip over and they're selling you something else and you flip over. So she's flipping between three just to find something that is the most palatable thing she wants to be sold. So right now you need to start the official campaign to get all three QVCs on YouTube tv. Nah, nah. Um. You only have one more spoon. It's the Oh white chocolate. Oh yes. I've been holding back on this peanut butter. But, but it's, but it's pink. But it's pink and I'm not dipping it. 'cause that thing breaks. It'll see, you know, it'll break. You know, it'll break. But I guarantee you, if you get this thing full of peanut butter, it's just an hor d'oeuvre spoon. Oh. Don't let anybody tell you different. It's deepened. If it's not just placed on the spoon and then put on a plate and you pick it up, eat it. This is gonna be so good. This is just a cracker with peanut butter on it. Okay. They're Valentine's Day edition spoons. That's why they're that color. 'cause nothing says, I love you like an edible spoon. That's right. Mm. That's pretty good. Let me te, but I didn't really taste the spoon. It's the texture. I love a texture or a cracker and a peanut butter. It doesn't really taste vanilla. Have you checked in on her, your mother? Yeah, she's not using YouTube tv. She still has satellite. She's using the streaming channels and then she goes back to Direct tv. She's got both. Oh, she, I love her so much. I, I get her, I got her all of it. She has all the TV she needs. She's just overwhelmed. She's just overwhelmed with it. The number of times I call my father and we spend the first 15 minutes. Talking about the nature of his TV situations. Oh, really? What's wrong? I don't, well, the first thing was last year when there was the dispute between, um, A-B-C-E-S-P-N and, and some other sport thing, YouTube tv. And so there was an ESPN on YouTube TV for like two weeks or something. This is a very difficult two weeks for my father. Yeah, I mean like one of the things that he depends on is his sports. He's a retired man who loves sports. Yeah. So he is like, well, I got Hulu now. So, and then they got it back and then he is got both and he just, he just talked to me about what having both was doing for him. What's it doing for him, good stuff, or. Yeah. Isn't it redundant? Uh, it, there's a lot of redundancy, but he's discovering the places that it's not redundant and exploiting those, there's so many times where it's on a different, I don't understand. I don't understand. What about this, the, like the Clippers or the Lakers being blocked in your area because you're here? Like, I don't understand what is that about? I know that there's an explanation for this that's like a historic thing, but then also like Prime has is live streaming games now and like. It's just like, I don't understand the hunt. You'd really have to hunt for specific games. The whole tv, I don't know what it's on. The whole TV industry is like sitting down at, on a street corner with a guy playing that game of there's a, is this nut under which cup? You know? But you the, that's what TV is. The key is to having a good user interface that brings it together, which could be Apple TV if you're willing to pay. The Apple TV subscription could be Roku. 'cause then everything's under there. Or Roku because, and I got mom the Roku because I didn't want her to get to the i, I wasn't gonna teach her how to use her phone like a remote. Oh God. I just broke a good one. Which you have to do with Apple TV because that little Apple TV remote, that thing is gonna crap out on you. That's my experience. Really? Yeah, you, you have to charge it. Really? Yeah, but you can effortlessly just swipe down and use the, if you have an iPhone, you can use the, the remote that's built into your phone. You can get a universal remote and program the Roku to be in the universal remote. What? Yeah. I can also get Direct TV app within Roku so that mom doesn't have to leave Roku to see her DirecTV, but I want to wean her off of the DirecTV. Is she actually using a satellite? Yes. There's a satellite on her house that's functioning? I think so. Yeah. A dish. What about when it rains? It pours, man, I don't know. Yeah. There was also a fire that was started in, in the barn behind her house. Well, who did that? A homeless guy living in there. Oh. Somebody was squatting in her barn. Way out. Way out in the country. No, right there behind her house. Huh? Yeah. Way out there in the country. Wow. And they took him in and then they, they put the fire out, and then a few hours later, there he was again. They couldn't, they couldn't, they couldn't prove that it was him. Wow. So anyway, she's, he's pretty crafty apparently. I like these, I like, I like this vanilla hard spoon. And what I would do is then I would, I would take it, I would dry it off and I'd, I'd put it back somewhere. Ugh, and I'd use it again. I know you would and I would get some sort of disease that I'm not come in your house. So this is why I can't do this. So my final verdict on this is that if you get some of these ones that are like the crackers as a gift, accept it. Get yourself a big bowl of chili. Use the cornbread ones and just bite off. And again, this is gonna be a dollar a bite, but you're worth it. A and B, if it's a gift, you don't have to worry about it. Love you, mom. Take a look behind the scenes of Good Mythical.
