Can we taste the air in snack bags? Welcome to Good Mythical More. In these bags is a snack, a snack that has been in said bag for days. Mm-hmm. We've inserted a straw into that bag. We're going to suck- Moments ago ... on said straw to see if we can identify the snack via the taste of the air that has surrounded it. All right. Where else are you going to see that today? Uh, here nine years ago. Oh, okay. Oh? All right. Well, hey, hey. Nine years ago. Time is a circle, Chase. Here we are, back at it. Back at it again. We need to suck at the same time, and then we need to give answers, um- As we know them or on a countdown? Let's start with as we know them. As we know them. But, but if you guess once, then you can't guess again until the other guy guesses. Oh, I can taste it, but I ... Um, salt and vinegar chips. Yep. Yes. That... It's salt and vinegar. Can you taste what brand? Ah, ah, ah, there's a knife in my crotch. Lay's. Yep, that's Lay's salt and vinegar. Yeah. All right, and then we open it and eat 'em. Right? That's part of it. Time is a circle. Did we do that last time? Oh, I got the biggest chip I've gotten all week. Bigger than Link's, Link's head? Mm. I got to, uh... Whoa. How'd y'all get such big chips this time? I think I crushed all of mine. Man. Just like your dreams of winning in the main. Oh, man, these are so good. This is... These are Christy's favorite chips. You know what? They've grown on me over the years, but they're not in my top 10 or anything. You can name 10 chips better than this? Yeah. Normal chips, cheesy chips. Huh. You think regular Lay's are better than that? Oh, yeah. Oh, gosh, we are on a divergent path, my friend. Well, as we've said many times before, you and Christy have the same palate. We like a lot of the same things, that's true. Um- But that's all you have in common. I forget about these because... I don't know how Jessie feels about 'em. They're, they're so tangy. It's just, it's nothing but tang. Nothing tang, that's... Yeah. That's, that's why I like 'em. That's why I like 'em, Link. Bag number two. Did you want me to eat a lot of those so now I can't taste bag number two? Yep. I need to have a palate cleanser. I think I ate more than you did, though. I'm excited. Do a little swishy switch. What a privilege it is to be here and do this. To be sucking on chips. Yep. Oh. Oh, sour cream and onion. Nope. Oh. Ooh. Cheddar, s- sour cream cheddar? Nope. Nope. Oh. Now, don't blow, 'cause I just found that when you blow, it comes out from around the straw and then you're smelling. Funyuns. No. But it's close to Funyuns. It's got onion flavor, is what we're all saying here, right? That is what you both all are saying, it seems. You're saying there's no onion in it? Uh, no, there, there's some... I think you're sucking the right flavor. We're sucking up what you're putting down. I- this onion doesn't necessarily come from the United States. Ha- uh, Hawaii... I didn't say, I didn't say that. Hawaii. The n- I didn't say that. Hawaiian... I was thinking Hawaiian ch- uh, sweet Hawaiian before you said, you said- The Maui onion chips? Maui chips. Which is an American chip, but... An onion that's not from the United States. That, yes, that, that is what I, that's what I... I stand by it. An onion that's not from the US? Well, that's not a Funyun. Shallot. Shallot. What if you were like to pull, tease apart Funyun into a two words, but one of them is not fun? Funky. Funky. But it starts with a ff. Oh, fu-nyun. There's more to it than just fu. Fu- um. And it's not from the United States. Ramen. It's not from North America. It's from South America. It's not from South America. It's from Asia. It's not from Asia. Panamanian onion. It's not from Antarctica. It's from Europe. Yep. It's also not from Africa, just to round it all out. It's from Europe. Or Australia. This is a, um- Or Australia ... I've had these in Ireland. It's ju- it's just an onion, it's an onion chip, um, that I had over there, and it was really good. It's pr- whatever he's talking about is what it is. Is that what it is? Nope. Oh. They're so oniony. This onion has tongue. Tongue? Yeah, y- yep. Yeah. French onion. It is Fr- French onion. French onion chips. Oh, dang. SunChips, specifically. Oh, SunChips. Oh, SunChips is your thing, man. We should've gotten- Hey, French onion soup, ooh, that's another thing I love. I did almost start having you guess, uh, yeah, astrological bodies to get to SunChips. Mm. Do you ever get these? But you were already struggling with the country. It's your favorite soup on a chip It's the best SunChip And it's ve- I've never had it Yeah, I've never had it either. I've been having the salsa ones Salsa ones are good They ain't that good Cheddar ones are good They ain't that good And all of that is better than sour cream, I mean, um, salt and vinegar. Salt and vi- the vinegar's so strong that you can't taste anything else. That's what I'm trying to say It's a singular experience Christy. Those are good. I'll go back those I think my favorite chips are multiple kinds of chips. That make sense? Like, if you're like, you can have- Next chip ... two types of chips or you can have one type of chip. You can have a chip that is your favorite chip, or you can have two types of chips that are your second and third favorite chip. Give me two and three, brother But not at the same time. I don't like a party bowl of chips where they've just like dumped different ones Oh, I'm not mixing them. I'm not doing that. I'm not crazy And eating, eating one chip and then going to another chip and then another chip I'm there, I'm doing that. Yeah So let me tell you about this drivel dream I had Okay My dogs woke up at 4:00 to go out Well, that's unacceptable And, um, so here I am letting Jade out on the balcony, trying to get her to poop on the grass patch Oh She won't do it. And then I go back to bed. You know when you go back to sleep at, like, 4:00 AM? So she woke you up, but she won't do it. So she didn't really want to She actually did, she didn't do it on the grass patch. She did it on the balcony Oh. Oh, that's fine No, it's not Was it wet? And then I went back to bed, not answering that, and you know you're in trouble from d- from a dream state if you're like, it's 4:00 AM and you're trying to go back to sleep and- You about to have some crazy dreams I was in this, uh, I was in this public restroom that was, like, two... I had to bend over like this to get in there, and it was all made of plastic like a Porta John, but instead of being tall like a Porta John, it was wide like a, like the, a McDonald's PlayLand Mm And I had to, I had to do number two in there Oh, you had a poop dream And then I started doing number two in there Poop Dreams, my favorite movie And then bec- I, I mean, because of the dog poop was on the brain, I guess Oh And it must have been a McDonald's PlayLand, because these, like- Ball pit little kids started coming in there. Here I am dropping a deuce, and these little kids are coming in there, and I hear the, a faucet running. And then I realize it's not a faucet running, it's me Oh It's so bad Oh, oh. But it's still a dookie dream, though? Yes. It was, like, diarrhea. Oh, in your dream? Yes. Hold on. I was dribble dreaming. But you didn't have to actually do it in real life, 'cause I, you have, a lot of- Well, hold on. Okay. And then these kids, these, like, five-year-old kids start- Point and actually laugh ... they, no, they're, they're walking right up to me. Checking it out. And they're, like, talking to me. Oh, gosh. And I'm like, just- That's horrible ... I, I, I don't feel, uh, like- This is a nightmare ... this is appropriate. Definitely no. This is very nightmarish. So I'm just gushing from the bottom. Mm. And they're gushing from the top, just talking, talking, talking. Oh, gosh. And I'm like, "Can't you see that I need some privacy?" Yeah. And then the cleanup was horrible. This is, n- I've never had this happen in a dream. It's never happened to me, and then I'm, I start to come a- come awake into real life, and I'm like, I have this, I have a fear that I've crapped the bed. That would be awful. That would be awful for your wife. Oh my gosh, I was so scared. It hadn't happened, but, like, how close did I get to, like, just crap in the bed, dude? Hold on. Are you telling me that you then went- Did you have to go when you woke up? ... up and got and went and- No ... did it in real life? No. Oh. Well, see, that's the thing. A pee dream, every single time I've ever had a pee dream, it's because I had to pee in real life. And every single time- No, it's 'cause my dog had to poop, not because I had to poop. That is wild. I know, man. It's the wildest. A poop dream. It was so bad. That's what a dribble dream is, man. Not good. Ginger Chews. Nope. Are we in a candy zone? No, we're not in a candy zone. Um, but I think we're, we're leaving chips for sure. We're leaving chips. Chocolate? Some weird chocolate? No, it's got ginger flavor in it. We're still in a- Pepper ... savory area. Peppery, spicy. Are we international? Combos. I'd say Combos is kinda close, but we are, uh- I tasted the fake cheese ... I think it's pretty American. Pizza Combos is Christy's second-favorite snack. Now, this is an interesting place where I appreciate the Pizza Combo, but I d- I'm not in love with it. Fake cheese. Pirate's Booty. Puff, puffed, puff puff. Hold on. It's got Old Bay seasoning in it. Yeah, it does have something that's got a punch to it. Is it those, uh, chips? Not chips. It's, it's, uh, something that's got Old Bay seasoning on it. Oh. Nope. It, there's some seasoning- ... for sure. Not- I'm just t- I'm really tasting some Bugles Remember, Rhett, when you were saying that your favorite chip is, uh, multiple? Oh. There's, there's c- there's a couple different things Chex Mix. Yeah. Chex Mix. Is it the cheesy kind? It, I don't think it's the cheesy kind. Well, let's analyze this. There it is. 'Cause everybody's got opinions about this. Okay. These are good. L- let's talk about what it means for your personality based on what your favorite part of the Chex Mix is. This is the same thing I already ate. It's good. Okay. If your Bagel Bite is your favorite thing, you're just correct, okay? So that's, uh, that's, uh, on, that's what it means about you, right? Yep. We- It means that you are the correct person ... specifically I like the, the rye bagel chip, the, like, darker one. Oh, the darker one? That's this. If you like- They're so crunchy ... the cir- if you like the circle pretzel... This thing? You're boring. I don't think, I don't think you have any taste. If you like the tic-tac-toe pretzel... Oh, the window pane ... you have a math brain. Math brain. Very logic-oriented. What if you like the, the turd pretzel? Turd one? You see, you see that as a turd, huh? I see it as a twisty rope. A twisty rope? Yeah. We do not think that's a pretzel back here. It's not a pretzel. It's a puff. It's a little breadstick that's, like, it's a, it's, it, it's like a little braid. If you like that, that means you've thought at least seven times in your life about going to a climbing gym, but you never actually have. What- You're like, "Oh, yeah, maybe I should..." And y- n- you, y- and you never will. Give up on that. What flavor are these that we're working with? I even have the gear in my closet, but I've never- Right. Uh- ... never gone to the gym Okay, and now you get down to the two Chex. One of them is flavored in a way that I don't know. What's that flavoring? You have the original? We know it is not Old Bay. We we looked that up. Yeah, we thought it was, like, jumped right out at me. All right. The majority of the population we're talking right here, okay? If you are- It's just the traditional ... what your friends would consider normal, but what people who don't know you would consider not very interesting, you like this one, the pale one. The corn Chex. There's a wheat and one- If you're a relatively normal person, but if you met someone and th- and then they were interviewed later, and, "Was that person interesting?" They would say, "Uh, I think so," that's you. You like this one. Someone who people thinks is interesting but isn't? The wheat Chex has flavoring on it. It's very pungent. I wanna, I wanna know about that. It doesn't say. It says corn and wheat Chex. We think it could be, uh, looking at just what people have done for their own recipes, could be like Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder- Yeah ... maltodextrin. That type of stuff. If you eat these indiscriminately by just grabbing a handful and just throwing it all in your mouth and seeing what happens- You're starving your career is gonna change seven times in your adult life. So this is not just a personality test, this is fortunes. Yeah, yeah. It's all, it's all re- related. Next. If you pick out a few of them and you don't eat those, or if you buy just the ones that you like, what does that mean? It means you're hard to get along with. Um, but you can buy just the Bagel Bites from, um, not Zatarain's, but something like that. So- Lando loves those. That's his favorite ... this is an, this is an interesting question. If you were given Che- Chex Mix as a meal, and that was your only thing that you had to eat- Yeah ... is there any point in the process in which you would put more than one thing in your mouth throughout the process? Are you always gonna pick one thing and eat it the whole time? If it was my only- Without thinking about it ... if it was my only thing that I could eat, I would start to eat the things that I didn't like w- within the things I did like. Like this pretzel, I wanna eat that with f- three or four Chex pieces. Oh, so you're covering things up. Cover things up. Mm-hmm. So the interesting thing is when you got- That one when you got a bunch of Chex Mix, is that- I wish it had peanuts in it ... I- is it true or not true? I've heard, I've heard this from multiple people, and it just doesn't really make sense to me. Somebody look this up to confirm it. The number of different shuffles of a card deck- Yeah ... are, like, as numerous as, like, the stars in the galaxy. It's like if you- 52 cards? 52 regular cards shuffled, like the order of those cards, the number of different shuffles is so extremely high that it's, like, on the o- an o- on the order of, like, the stars in the universe. It's, like, it's a crazy high number. Like the number of permutations? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Like the number of different ways that that shuffle could fall. Yeah. Any one shuffle. So, uh, that is 52 factorial, um, which is roughly 8 by 10 to the 67th power, which is- Uh, far larger than the estimated number of stars, uh, in our galaxy Okay. Isn't that beautiful? And even exceeds the, the number of, uh, atoms that we can, can assume are in the entire observable universe That, that's crazy to think about. That just 52 cards Fact, it's the fow- it's the power of factorial. It's the power of factorial So I guess ultimately what I'm saying is, is that there are not as many as 52 factorial. I don't know exactly how many. I guess there could be- Factorial Factorial. How many different combinations of Chex things can you put in your mouth? And so when I look at this, I see it as a p- as a- Well ... as a bag of possibilities One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine So what I'm hearing is that the window shaped Chex is your favorite, 'cause you've got that math mind My favorite thing is- Ahem ... finding a new combination. I've got two of the corn, one of the pretzel. I- Like, that's a unique bite I, I want the cheese version. It's, it, the cheese version's better. This is better than I thought it would be Two of the oat, one of the rope Su- Why don't you suck on the four here? There's more things happening in my mouth than there are stars in the, in the universe I see what you did. In the visible universe And all I've ever done is eaten Chex Mix I didn't even get up from the desk, and I made the universe happen in my mouth That's a thought. All right, here we go. Suck on four. Okay. It's subtle Is it cheesy? We've been Chexed. We've been thoroughly Chexed It's not potato-y though Hmm. Am I right, it's subtle? I could see how it would be subtle post Chex Mix Oh, oh But in my brain I don't think it would be that subtle Uh, Goldfish Ver- that's very close Jalapeno That's very not close Um- It tastes like Goldfish when you go like this. Look. Get your tongue in, involved But it's not French It's not Goldfish? It's not Goldfish Hmm But it's fish. It's fish It's a kind of fish is the way to ma- that s- tell it Yeah, you, you, you hung onto the wrong part there It's gold gra- Golden Grahams Well, no, think about more, less... You can think about the color, but think about the flavor of Goldfish Bread Cheese You mean cheesy Goldfish? It ta- it do- it does Uh, Ritz. I mean, um, b- uh, Cheez-Its. Yep, it's Cheez-Its. All right. All right. I, I didn't really... Yes. I didn't taste anything, but this is what I needed to add to this. Oh, and you can do that. In fact, I think that Chex Mix makes a, um, a Triscuit version. Maybe that's just my mom makes that. What? What do you mean Triscuit version? There are cheddar Chex Mix. Not, not Triscuit. Um- Yeah ... what are these again? Cheez-Its. Cheez-Its. I think, I've seen people mix Chex with Cheez-Its. That's what I'm saying. And I don't know if it's an official collab. No. You can just get the cheesy Chex, and that's, that's better than what I'm doing right now. There's cheddar Chex Mix, but then also Cheez-Its does a snack mix. That's it. That is very Chex Mix adjacent. All right. Let's suck on five. Little carby snacks are so good. So good. You know what I'm saying? I don't wanna suck without you. They're just so good. So I'm gonna keep eating these. I'm eating only squares right now. A little carby snack And a little bit of bagel. If you're a little bit sad- I'm listening ... eat a little carby snack. Were you a little sad? No, I'm just saying. Speed round. We gotta wrap this up. I don't think I can be sad while eating that. All right, last one. Here we go. Ooh, bubblegum. Nope. Jolly Rancher. Nope. Gummy bear. Oh. Nope. Swedish Fish. Nope. Blue raspberry flavored something. Fruit snacks. Might be in there, the blue raspberry flavored something. Oh. Hard. Sour Patch Kids. Sour Patch Kids. Sour Patch Kids. It's not a carby snack, so I'm going back to this. Well- Have a great day ... it is a carby snack, technically. There's sugar in it. I'm gonna put it all together.
