Can I predict which one he's gonna wanna eat?
Welcome to Good Mythical More.
We saw this game on TikTok where somebody
looks at two different things that are very
similar, like these two pieces of bacon.
It's not that, like, one is
crispy and one is floppy.
They're very similar.
Uh-huh.
But Link is going to choose which one he
prefers, and then I'm gonna turn around
while he does that so you can see which
one he chooses, and then I'm gonna try to
guess which one he chooses, and we'll go
back and forth with different types of food.
Dang, why would I only eat
one if they're both here?
And they are very similar.
Not an option.
Okay.
I'm pointing at the one I would choose.
All right.
Which one would I choose?
Yeah, just leave it
oriented like that though.
This one.
Why would you choose that one?
Um, because it's less fatty.
That was the one I chose.
It seemed m- like it was a little
more- Maybe a little crispier?
A little crispier, I don't know.
Yeah, it j- it's … That, that fat streak
right there in the middle was less prominent-
A l- it just had a- … so I knew you
would pick that one … had a lot of fat.
So I was right, right?
Yeah, you were right.
I was right, like, right off the bat.
It's a little too floppy though.
Yeah, e- neither is really the answer, 'cause
this bacon is too floppy for your taste.
That, that, that makes me nostalgic though.
That's how I used to like bacon.
In what days?
Growing up.
Huh.
It was always, like, floppy, greasy.
I just loved it that way.
My mom did greasy bacon,
floppy bacon as well.
I like both of them, all right?
I always order, like, crispy bacon now.
Okay.
Oh.
I'm just gonna get these lined up
again, 'cause it kind of fell off.
Okay.
Hmm.
Okay, so you turn around.
All right.
Okay.
Okay.
Did you point at the one you didn't want?
I pointed at the one I did want.
Okay, good.
Yeah.
Now I kn- I would immediately
choose that one for me.
Based on this angle, like, this whole
side of that, there's no cheese coverage.
And when there's more undulation, there's
more places for cheese to get caught.
Just looks to be more cheese in, in this one.
So I have to think that you
would also choose this one.
Correct.
Without hesitation.
Without hesitation.
It's just, it's- The other one, I
couldn't even immediately identify as
a Cheeto when I first saw it on camera.
Yeah, that one's weak.
Weak cheese, man.
Get rid of that.
Who's going for that?
Get rid of that crap.
See- You see how well we know each other?
The best Cheetos, though, are those, are
the little ones that accumulate, like the
pebbles of Cheetos at the bottom of the bag.
Cheeto pebbles.
That could be a cereal.
I, I would just love to have an entire
bag of nothing but Cheeto pebbles.
They could be lo- they could be
long, but they gotta be real thin.
That does seem like
something that should exist.
Yeah, just the little Cheeto
things, and then you just c- you
just throw them down your throat.
We call them little Cheetos.
Lil- lil Cheetos
Should be a rapper Little Cheeto,
Little Cheeto We've got two wings, um,
the drumstick I want you to be able
to appreciate how similar these things
are, those of you watching this show
that we are doing right now These are
so similar, but there is a difference.
Um, okay.
Ready?
Don't look yet.
I'm, I'm now choosing
How many times do I have to point?
You got it, right?
All right
And you did not pick them
up and investigate them?
Nope.
You just looked at them.
Nope.
Didn't touch them.
I think you can if you
want to, going forward.
I think this- Thank you.
I mean, I think that letting them sit
without lo- I think you should choose
without looking, without picking them up and
turning them over, because I think that it
reduces the number of variables this way.
Okay.
Course, you know, um, I'm a drumette man
Right?
You like flats too though.
Oh, that's right.
See, he got it.
That's good.
You passed.
I'm a flat guy.
I like the flats when it comes to wings.
Yeah, so, so that's what's kinda throwing
me off here because I would choose this
one all day every day because it's a
Look, that's, I could, I can see
that in my mouth already, that bite.
Like, I can feel that.
That's a mouth-sized bite, and this is like
I'm gonna have to work at this a little bit
This one you can see bone.
You can see like straight up bone.
You don't like that.
And it looks like there's so little meat
on this that if you bite it, you might get
to like a tendon or something like this.
So I think you chose the bigger one.
Nope.
I didn't, 'cause I like a crunchier wing.
Oh.
So too much meat, it just
gets kinda rubbery, you know?
So I don't like that.
Also, it looks like they do have
Cheetos Minis as a thing, but they look
like they're just mini Cheeto Puffs.
They don't look like
they're mini Cheeto Pebbles.
Oh, the balls?
Yeah, they're like tiny balls of Cheeto.
That's a Tyson.
You failed me on that one, Rhett.
'Cause I'm a flat guy.
I, I, I'm fine with the bones.
I'm also fine with like the other
stuf- stuff that I don't wanna mention.
But you're not though, 'cause
you don't wanna mention it.
Yeah, that's true.
You don't like knowing that it's a chicken
Just 'cause it's got bones
doesn't mean it's a chicken.
I like to think of a bone as more like a
building material for the meat of a wing.
Okay, I, I'm ha- I have a choice.
I'm gonna make it.
Okay, I've made it.
Well, you got a flat one
and you got a curly one.
I feel like the curly one,
I li- I just, I,
I'm sorry if I'm spoiling future
rounds, but I just can't resist
something with some curl to it.
Mm-hmm.
You know, when it curls up and
undulates, that's just tantalizing.
Okay.
I like that.
So I'm definitely choosing
that, just 'cause it's more fun.
Flat beef jerky, it's just kinda mid.
I also think there's more meat here once
you were to unfurl it than there would
be here, so from a quantity standpoint,
I think you're winning on that front
But maybe you don't like having
to unfurl because when you unfurl,
there's no seasoning under there.
Oh, crap.
There may not be seasoning
inside of that crevice.
It's like the armpit of
the- Hmm … beef jerky.
There's, there's a lot to consider
A lot to consider.
I just, I don't know what kind
of logic you would apply to this.
Hmm.
Maybe none at all
I'm not gonna … I, I, I, after, after
I, you choose and I tell you which
one I chose, I'll tell you the logic,
but I'm not gonna give you the logic.
So there is logic?
I mean, I didn't say it was complex.
I, I feel like you would
just go with the flat one.
Wrong.
Oh.
Why you like cur- the curled up one?
Because there's a lot more meat.
Okay.
It's double, I mean-
Yep … it's double the meat.
I mean, that's a lot of meat.
It's thick.
Also, I mean, look how much thicker it is.
I mean, it's way thicker than that.
'Cause I'm kinda, like, I'm kinda going
off of I'm reaching into a bag of beef
jerky- Okay … and this is, like, the only
piece that I'm gonna eat in this moment.
Like, I have to choose these two,
and I'm gonna go for the bigger one.
Okay.
I should've known.
It's just about quantity
for the, for the guy.
Started out knowing each other well,
but I don't know what's happening now.
We've outgotten each other.
Yeah, what happened?
Two popcorn kernels that I'm not gonna touch.
Hmm.
Okay.
Go for it.
You know what I think
happened on that last round?
Overthought it.
The same thing that happens on…
What's that game where you're
trying to connect the two words?
You say like mammal, two.
Tennis
The tennis?
The game where there's words on a grid and
you're trying to connect them Codenames
Codenames Oh So Codenames is always the
thing that you see first, and then people
start- Mm-hmm … way overthinking it.
Yeah.
Yep.
Alright.
Well, don't do that here
Well it's al- it's tough for you
because you don't like popcorn.
I don't dislike popcorn except when it
gets in my teeth, which is every time
I just don't see how you couldn't
prefer the one on the left.
I mean, it's bigger.
It's like, it's popcorn.
Like, you might as well go big or go home.
It's got, like, four
different things in orbit.
This one's a little dinky.
It's a little defeated on the plate.
It's kinda flat.
Yeah.
I chose that one.
You chose the one that
I just- You were right.
Yeah.
Does that taste defeated?
No, it tastes great.
It's pretty buttery.
Buttery?
Buttery.
What, what kind of buttery popcorn is that?
AMC.
That's AMC?
They got it.
They do it right.
Somebody went over to AMC and-
Oh, you don't even need a, n- need a movie?
Huh.
All right, you gonna choose a grape?
Whoa, they're all flipping around, too.
I, my eyes are closed.
Okay
Boy, this is tough, but this one
is, this one looks like it has more,
it has more untouched frostiness.
Like, I can see some frostiness on it.
And, but this one's a little bigger
All right, I'ma go, I learned
my lesson, I'm going with size.
This one.
Yeah.
Okay.
But I would choose this one.
I like this one 'cause it's a
little bit bigger, and also that
one has a bunch of brown on it.
No, well, I thought I- Let,
let me, let me be clear.
I thought I have frost- I eat all the grapes,
even the little, tiny little rotten ones.
Like, I just eat everything.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't, I don't, I just don't…
A, a hair in my food, I don't, I
just, I go, I just plow through.
I got- I don't, I'm not that guy, okay?
I think everyone back here went, "Ew," when
we heard you eat the Dingell Berry grapes.
But if you have to make a choice,
if you force me into a choice-
You're like a desperate wolf, man.
You never know when you're not
gonna get a chance to eat again
So you go with the bigger one.
It's what he always does.
All right.
Two slices of pizza.
Let me pull these apart,
take a good look at 'em.
Think about what animals eat in general.
Like, you throw something to a dog, it
doesn't, it, it could be in the dirt.
It, they don't care.
Why we gotta care about so many things?
Just eat it.
You know what I mean?
Okay
One of them's got, um- I mean, there is
a- A lot of whole pepperonis when I'm done
This is where, this is where your, uh, what
I would call odd tastes might confuse me.
Because that is clearly the superior,
like, like, I know you don't like pepperoni
that much, but I think that it… I,
I think it says you prefer sausage.
I don't think it said
you don't like pepperoni.
That's right.
And so there just can't be a world
in which you don't choose this one.
I mean, look, it's, you, the first
bite is a whole slice of pepperoni.
Which is how you define a
perfect pizza experience.
I mean, by the time you get
down here, though, you're eating
pepperoni on top of pepperoni.
And the problem?
It's a little gratuitous.
So you chose that one?
You have to decide.
You chose this one.
I did choose that one.
Yeah.
Well, you wanna eat it?
Um, no.
Okay.
I will.
Do you hear the Windy's?
The Windy's is, like, already
dropping into the next phase.
Yeah.
Like, I can feel it moving, like…
It's gone through the next window.
Yeah, and you- Yeah … you
got me worried over there.
Yeah.
Yeah, we need to wrap this up soon.
Oh, wow.
Flats
I'm gonna look at him, I'm gonna look away
Which flat is he gonna choose?
Alright.
I don't know why I'm looking away
. Now you, yeah, now you look away.
Hmm.
What's he gonna choose?
Now am I choosing for me
or am I choosing for you?
I don't remember anymore.
You, you're predicting what I'm choosing.
No, I'm predicting for you.
The bigger one.
It did kind of feel like with the
pepperoni pizza you were picking
for what you think Rhett would pick.
Did I screw you up by turning around?
Is that what happened?
That's what it was.
Yeah.
Yeah, the bigger one.
All right, so the bigger one- It's smooth,
too … just because it's bigger, but I
would also have chosen that one because-
That's a good flat … it's just, I
like the, it l- it's very triangular.
Yeah.
That's very nice.
It's a good wing.
This one's very oval-ic.
I like more of a triangulation of my flats.
Yeah, definitely.
It's a good wing.
Look at that.
'Cause then you can just
nibble that part right there.
I'm not even gonna do it,
'cause I ate so much Wendy's.
Yeah, I d- Ooh, that's hot.
I'm holding myself back, too.
Okay?
Okay.
All right, this is the last
one for each of you to guess.
Let's end strongly.
Do you hear my stomach?
Yeah.
Yeah, we're gonna have to call somebody.
We're gonna have to call the doctor
The GI
Okay, got it
Wow.
Lookie there.
Frito.
Hmm
This is exactly how it was sitting?
It hasn't fallen?
Yep.
It's as it was.
Our friendship teeters on the edge.
If he gets this wrong, it's over
The real philosophical question here is
I know that you want one to be completely
curled up, which actually doesn't happen
very often in a Frito, but when it does- No
it is special.
I'm, yeah, that's weird.
So the question is do you appreciate the,
the hint of a curl, of what it represents?
Mm-hmm.
Uh, it's clearly an inferior
Frito in terms of size.
Like, that one on the left
is, like, very symmetrical.
It's a little flat, doesn't have
a lot of curl, but it's- Neither
one of them look like a Frito to me
it's, it's bigger.
Is it a Frito?
Yeah, it's a Frito, man.
What'd you think a Frito looked like?
I don't- Got ridges in it or something?
Yeah, Frodo.
I don't know what that is.
It's different.
It's longer and thinner.
Well, now I don't know what to think.
Did you know it was a Frito
when you looked at it?
I thought it was.
Now I'm looking at it so long.
It's like when you say a word
too long, it becomes less a word.
I feel like this one is objectively
the better Frito, but you respect the
curl so deeply that you went with it.
I did.
Yeah.
Take it.
Because, yeah, it's, it's like a toenail
that you don't, that you don't cut, you know?
It's like a cautionary tale.
Don't forget to cut your toenails
But if you've waited a really long
time and they're starting to come
out and curl over, just let them
go and see how long they can get.
Like, don't stop now.
You know what I mean?
Just buy bigger shoes.
You might be able to get in Guinness.
Get in Guinness.
All right, let's call it, 'cause,
um- No, there's one more … I
don't know what's happening.
There's one more.
Oh, we got one more?
There's one more that I'm gonna pick.
I'm just, I- And then you're gonna
predict … I got my eye on the bathroom.
That's all I'm saying.
Okay.
All right.
So I'm gonna pick, right?
And then you're gonna predict.
I, I mean, I'm, my GI tract is
getting some sort of momentum.
Good.
There's a momentum happening.
Well, you know what?
You can, you can take care of that.
Are you gonna look away?
Flip the strawberries so they
both are looking the same way.
Yeah.
Okay
Okay?
Well, one's a lot riper and bigger,
so that makes this completely obvious.
Now, if the riper one was smaller, then
I'd be a little torn because you're
the, you big guy want the big one.
We… So I'm gonna say obviously this one.
Yeah.
Why, why wouldn't you choose, why
would you choose an underripe when you
can have this one, which is perfect?
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, but- Can I say something?
If this one were the ripe one and
that one was slightly underripe, would
you have chosen the bigger one even
though it was a little underripe?
I think ripeness is a
bigger factor than size.
All right, good.
And now here's another thing.
I just wanna b- tell y'all
about how you eat a strawberry.
Okay?
You just take, like you don't have
to take that part of the stem off.
You don't have to.
You don't have to.
Like you just eat the leaves off,
but then you just, this goes away,
like you won't even notice it.
It's big, isn't it?
You're struggling.
Like you don't- But you're eating,
you're eating everything around the stem.
The only thing gonna be left is the stem.
Spit it out.
I ate the whole thing.
So here's the thing is that all that goodness
right around the stem, you wanna like
be like a little, what are you, a little
beaver, trying to get everything all around?
No.
Just take the leaves off, you're not a
rabbit, and then just eat the whole berry.
It's the only way that you can
guarantee that you get all the berry.
And you get a little extra fiber.
Just a little extra fiber.
Just telling you, you don't taste it, and
you should be eating the skins on your kiwis.
Scandalous.
