We're playing This or That with desserts
Welcome to Good Mythical More.
We are going to be presented
with two immaculate photos of
desserts that have been enjoyed and
photographed by our very own Brittany.
Brittany, are you, um, on the mic?
I'm here.
That's so perfect for this because you
took these photos 'Cause you'll travel
around and you'll eat some stuff.
Uh, yeah, exactly.
Oh, gosh, you will.
I will eat some stuff.
I have found myself at a restaurant
because of Brittany's recommendation
a f- Mm-hmm … uh, a number of times.
I'd say so far, pretty solid, Brittany.
Oh, yeah.
And thank God- So solid … 'cause
I kinda sweat when I hear that.
No, no, no, no, no.
You do a good job.
So, like, let's look at this first one.
We've got this, which appears to
be- Is that a marshmallow topping?
Is that s'mores under,
like a sm- Brownie-ish?
That is a s'mores pizookie.
Okay.
Do you know about the pizookie?
Yeah, from BJ's.
BJ's?
Yes.
So this is from BJ's, or is it from a
fancier place that's doing what BJ's
does on, like, a- No, that's from BJ's.
Oh.
And I got it for free for my birthday-
Oh … served to me by a Mythical Beast.
Oh.
How'd you find out they
were a Mythical Beast?
She w- um, saw me wearing my GMM
sweatshirt, and my husband very quickly
said, "She works on the show." Okay.
Oh, dang.
And then you got it for free.
But you would've got it for free anyway.
Well, it was my birthday
pizookie, so yeah.
Right.
So we didn't really do anything for you.
Did you get anything else for free?
We know Brittany.
She probably went to a few
restaurants on her birthday.
She loves something free.
Yeah, I do, sue me.
Yeah, I'll let Carney
call you the cheapskate.
I'm- So graham crackers,
chocolate, and, uh- Marshmallows
marshmallows.
That's all that's in there.
S'mores-mallows.
Vanilla ice cream on top.
You got s'mores-mallows on there?
Yeah.
It's, you know, the standard
pizookie is chocolate chip, and
this is the s'mores take on it.
So I mean, is it good?
It's good, but it's not something, like,
I would never- I think I've had this
choose to order it if I
was ordering from a menu.
If somebody brings it to me, I ate it.
That's how I feel about- With a, with
a burning candle in it … that's
how I feel about pizookie.
On the r- on the that side, we
have… W- what kinda cannoli is this?
That is a pistachio cream
cannoli that I had in Rome.
In Rome.
This is quite- So that's pistachio
cream and then pistachios.
Correct.
It looks a little crunchy for my taste.
Uh-oh.
It looks a little, looks a
little- Well, it is a cannoli.
It looks a little burnt, though.
I don't like the brownness of
that cannoli, and I'm not gonna
talk about your thumbnail.
Hold on.
What are you looking for- You mean my…
Oh, my God … in a cannoli, mushiness?
I don't- The whole point is it's crisp.
Is it, that's the, what a cannoli is.
I don't like anything that tastes
burnt except- Well, it doesn't
look burnt at all … for bacon.
Bacon's the only thing I can
eat that looks, that is burnt.
So I'm going with this.
Brittany, would you
say that that is burnt?
Since I, I, I'm assuming you ate it.
I know you s- I know you think I'm crazy.
I would not, I would not say it was burnt.
It was actually stale.
I didn't wanna, you know- Oh … influence
this, but- Maybe that's what I
was picking up … I do wanna know
what you think of my nail now.
Is it, is it Sprite themed?
It's lemons for the Amalfi Coast.
Oh.
Oh, yes.
Uh, they had those lemons everywhere
on… I almost got a shirt with them,
but then I was like, "Boy, this won't
look good when I get back home." What's
that thing that people on the internet
who like to comment have where they
say they don't like bumpy things?
A, a certain ph- I don't
know … a certain phobia.
But Carney whispered a joke to
me that I couldn't say on mic.
Carney, stop it.
Either say it yourself.
You're talking about tryptophobia.
Don't… Tryptophobia.
Tryptophobia.
Oh, look.
I'm gonna go with the cannoli on this
one because I would not know that it
was stale, and then I would be upset.
Yeah, you would've been.
So I'm going with that.
Well, we have to agree, right?
For this to move on.
Correct.
Okay.
Now that I know that it's
stale, I'm going with this.
Okay.
There we go.
We're going with BJ's over Rome,
and now for that we have added some
sort of a- This is from a, this
is from one of those restaurants.
Is, is that a ch- is that salpicon?
And, and is that those, like, fish?
Those, like, uh, the
waffle things in the back.
Yeah.
Are you asking if it's taiyaki?
Yeah.
It's not.
Just, I just wanted to give you
a chance to- I could run my hand
on it … arrive on your own.
Did you have a guess of where
you thought it was from?
No.
No, 'cause it looks- I think this is-
it looks much fancier than
the stuff that I've had.
I think this is a plum from,
I think you're still in Rome.
No, this is in LA.
This is, uh, Petit
Trois, the French place.
They have a location in
Hollywood and Sherman Oaks.
Is that- And this is, like, a PB&J sundae.
It's, um, peanut butter gelato,
cassis sorbet, candied peanuts,
marshmallow fluff, and chocolate sauce.
What is the, what is
that plum-looking thing?
That's sorbet?
That's the sorbet, yeah.
That's the jelly sorbet.
Oh, God.
Uh, I'm going- I feel so stupid … I'm
going with that on this one.
We gotta go with that.
You know, 'cause it's, it's interesting.
I mean, there's peanut butter in it.
There's jelly in it.
It's not taiyaki.
Having b- had both of these,
would you go with that as well?
See, I disagree with you on a Pizookie.
I think it's one of the greatest treats
in the world, so even though I thought
that was a very good sundae, I would
probably still go for the Pizookie.
Oh, wow.
I'm sorry.
I apologize to- I would
go for the cookie Pizookie
to BJ's everywhere.
But that right there, I don't know.
There's no, there's no dough in there.
Like, that's what I like about a Pizookie
is, like, cookie dough-ish hotness.
Well, there is.
It's just under the marshmallow.
It's a lot of gooey chocolate.
Yeah.
Dear God.
Which is great.
High burn hazard.
So if something's burnt or can burn you.
What happened to you as a child?
Mm-hmm.
Well, you were there for it.
I never saw you get held
down and burned or anything.
Yes, it was your fault.
So we're going with that
against you, Brittany.
I'm sorry.
Oh, but we might decide to change.
Oh, but that's- Is it- That is a peanut
butter ha- It's a peanut butter pie?
Yes.
But, like, a single
serving, but a whole pie?
I don't care where it's from.
We're going with this.
Yeah.
Well, it's from Leoda's Pie Shop
in Maui, which is very good.
Oh, Maui.
Maui?
The Hawaiian place?
Exactly.
Yeah, the island.
The very one.
So you get your own pie.
Yeah.
You don't have to share it with anybody.
You can.
That looks absolutely incredible.
Is that graham cracker crust?
Oh, my God.
Probably.
Oh, my God.
I don't quite remember.
We're going for this in Maui.
Okay.
We've got a new snack.
Is that a cinnamon roll?
That is a big cinnamon roll.
Mm. From Agnes Cheesery.
Oh, in Pasadena?
In Pasadena.
Cheesery?
Mm-hmm.
Uh- Is that cheese?
No.
Cream cheese?
No, this is, this restaurant kind of
bills itself as upscale Midwestern fare.
Yeah.
I, we, I have eaten with you in
that, this restaurant this year.
Oh, is that where we
went with, um, somebody?
Mike and Stephanie, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
That was this place, and they have a
little cheese little shop at the top.
And LaKeith Stanfield was in there.
LaKeith Stanfield was in there,
having a meeting with somebody.
He was having a meeting,
so we didn't talk to him.
It, it seemed like they were
trying to talk him into, like,
a movie role or something.
Yeah.
That's what we suspected.
Maybe he did it.
He's in that movie with Kristen
Stewart and, uh, Peekaboo
Bryson, whatever her name is.
What?
What's her name?
Well, I don't know who
you're talking about.
Come on, Hitch, it's very lesbian coded.
Yeah, you're gonna- You need to
see it … you're gonna love it.
Um, she was in, um, maybe.
Now le- hey, lesbians are not a monolith.
She was, she was, uh… Are
you talking about Alia Shawkat?
A lot of them have the same haircut, but
a lot of them have different haircuts
Uh, and maybe they're not lesbians in
the… I don't, maybe they're just friends
Hitch is walking away.
Ah, we should've, we should've stopped.
We should've stopped.
Um, I'm intrigued by the movie.
You brought it up.
Lakeith is in the movie,
Kristen Stewart's in the movie.
That, and again, the girl who played
Maeby in Arrested Development.
Yeah, you were talking about Alia Shawkat.
Yes.
And it's, it's- Why'd you
call her Peekaboo Bronson?
It seems, it seems like a, like a
real fun, just trendy little movie.
You know- And we'd like to believe
that they were talking about
that movie in this restaurant
watch it, watch it in Los Feliz.
Plaza.
That kinda thing.
Um, okay.
Uh- We're gonna go with
the peanut butter pie.
Uh, there's not a chance.
Cinnamon rolls don't have
a chance around here.
Peanut butter pie it is.
Smart choice.
Oh, I don't e- you can tell us about
your little icy thing on the right,
but- I mean, I'm not listening.
I mean- This is Hawaii too … I agree.
It's, it's shave ice from
Uluan- Ululani's in Maui.
I would go with the peanut
butter pie over this too.
Well, let's talk about shave
ice because I did- Yeah … not
know what shave ice really was.
I thought it was a snow cone, and
I was sorely mistaken until I went
to, um, a place I'm sure you've
been, and I don't know how to say
it, but I'm gonna say Okabing?
I know it.
I actually haven't been because I
don't care for shave ice that much.
Is it in Koreatown?
It's in Koreatown, and they go so high.
Have y'all… Who's been to it?
Oh, me.
Okay, Nick's been to it.
Oh, yeah, many times.
And I was like, this is so much
better than I thought it would be.
I- is it as good as ice cream?
No.
But- Why is it not sh- um- 'Cause they
literally shave the ice … snow cone?
So snow cone is like a ice
machine, like- Oh … krr.
Okay.
And then- The consistency of this
is stronger … this is literally
taking the- Yeah … there's these
blocks of ice, and they're shaving it.
I, I've seen that, yeah.
I- And it gets so flu- it's so fluffy,
and it's so tall, and it has this like…
It like- But then you got the same
syrups going in it, and when I got this-
A little bit different … in Hawaii,
I only liked it when I got to the ice
cream that I ordered underneath it.
It's just not- Well,
that tells you something.
I definitely don't think it's better than
this, but- If it's hot and humid- … I
just gotta say I appreciate it, and
I, I do like a softened my butter
if it's 110 degrees- You stick your
face right in it … I'm, I might
go with that, not, instead of this.
You don't wanna eat this when you're,
like, baking in the sun, lesbian or not.
All right.
So we're sticking with this.
Now, that is- Is just
straight up cookie dough?
No, this is Graham Central
Station from Handel's.
Have you had it?
Graham Central S- so
Graham cracker ice cream?
Yes.
It… I don't wanna influence you.
We- I'm also a peanut butter lover.
I truly believe this is the greatest
ice cream flavor of all time.
Graham Central Station, Handel's.
I got Christy to drive me
to Handel's the other night.
I haven't been yet.
You've never been to Handel's?
I've not been to Handel's.
I'll get Christy to drive you there.
Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
'Cause you will not be able to drive home.
Well, will I be in the backseat?
Uh, I would prefer it, yes.
Okay.
I will not be in the front seat.
No one will be, except for kids.
You got a third row?
I like to sit in the third row sometimes.
I mean, yeah, we can
throw you in the trunk.
I take the captain's chair out of the
center and I sit in the third row.
Oh.
Yeah.
So you can stretch out?
So I can stretch out.
Whoa.
Yeah, yeah.
I'll, I'll yell at your wife, though.
What's the black stuff in there?
'Cause I'll be so far from her.
Those are little honeycomb
bits covered in chocolate.
A textural treat.
But then what's the … What is the base?
A cup- The base is a graham cracker
flavored ice cream, and there is, like,
a graham cracker streusel mixed in.
So, but you mentioned peanut butter.
Were you talking about
comparing it to the this?
Is that what you meant?
Yes.
I was just saying I'm also a peanut
butter lover, but- Oh, understood.
Okay.
Okay.
How does … L- Let's just
take a little side trail.
I didn't see this, and I would … And I-
Is Handel's, how does it compare to, let's
just say, another, like, Salt & Straw?
I also love Salt & Straw.
It's more- Go on.
I do think, yeah, Handel's is
more of traditional flavors.
More down home.
I think the ice cream itself is
maybe better, if I'm being honest.
But I love the Salt & Straw creativity.
What about Jeni's?
It's g- like, more like Jeni's.
But which is better?
Does it matter?
All ice cream can be good, right?
Salt & Straw is a little too
frou-frou, a little too fancy pants.
Okay.
Yeah, this is ice cream for the everyman.
Yeah, and the vibes are
fun at the one I go to.
It's, like, it's outside,
but you're lining up.
And where do the Handel's come in?
It's kinda like Swedish or something.
Okay.
Um- Handel.
Handel.
It's kinda like that.
Well, I'm gonna have to
take your word for it.
I- Crap, I gotta try this now.
I love ice cream, though.
Oh, I love ice cream.
Drive me there.
In the backseat, third row.
All right, we're sticking with that.
Going with that.
Uh-oh.
And this ain't gonna beat it.
This looks cake.
That looks like cake.
It's cake.
He's not gonna like that.
Is it salad?
This is salad.
No, I was waiting to see if Rhett
knew what this was, 'cause I feel
like you've probably been here.
Well, I don't think I have.
This is, this is a cake plug.
This is the princess cake
from Quarter Sheets Pizza.
I haven't been to Quarter Sheets Pizza.
What is that?
You've gotta go to Quarter Sheets Pizza.
Everybody says it's maybe the best
pizza in Los Angeles, but there's,
there- What's different about it?
There's only… Well,
it's Detroit style, right?
Yes.
So it's pan, pan, like Destr-
Detroit style, but they only have
a few different flavors in it.
It's… We tried to do it for
a party one time, and they
were like, "Well," it's weird.
Ordering there was weird.
Like, "We can only do this
many pizzas" or something, and
then we just never went back.
Um, okay.
Well- I, I like Detroit style pizza, but.
Let's talk about the pizza.
Is it your favorite pizza in LA?
It might be.
Um, I think it's- Oh … it's up there.
Me and your wife were talking about this.
I was in the third row.
She was driving.
And- You need a driver there … we
talk about pizza quite a bit, and
we talked about Quarter Sheets,
and I don't think either of us…
You know what?
That, I'm gonna have to go
on a date with your wife.
Uh, she's gonna drive me first
to Quarter Sheets, and then
she's gonna drive me to Handel's.
That doesn't really sound
like a date, does it?
You can- Kind of sounds like a
chauffeur, which is what I prefer.
You can come sit on the
second row if you want.
I won't be there.
She hasn't looked at me the
same since I didn't like pizza.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
You know?
I said I could go the rest of
my life without eating pizza.
Said it on the show, said it to her.
It's a weird thing to say.
Our marriage wasn't over,
but a part of it was.
It's a weird thing to say.
You know?
So is this cake good?
This cake is good, and I'm not
much of a cake person myself.
Um, and I also go chocolate more than
fruity, but this is very good cake.
Their pastry chef at Quarter
Sheets is really good, so all
of their desserts are very good.
And there's a lot of icing in that,
and then there's a lot of the,
like, whatever the red stuff is.
So it looks very moist.
It's got a helmet on it.
And I've seen Link fall for
a moist cake a time or two.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, if you drive me
there, I might eat it.
We're sticking with that.
We'll go with that.
Oh, God, that good- Is
that a cookie of sorts?
Yes.
What, what did it do to your hand?
Is it a deep-fried Oreo?
I had to show off the cross-section.
That is- Oh, my God … the Half
Baked from Maui Cookie Lady.
You back in, uh, Maui again?
How, how much time did you
spend- Yeah … in Hawaii?
Boy, you came back from Maui heavier.
You know what?
I did my manager harassment training
today, and I learned a few things about
how to deal with comments like that.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, Link hasn't done it yet.
I saw it on my calendar.
Link hasn't done … Yeah,
it's on our calendar.
I think we're doing it on Friday.
Amazing.
But he hasn't done it yet, so
it's, you know- He, he saw that
on the calendar and chose that.
Uh- Yeah, one of the methods we
learned was distraction, so let me
tell you that that cookie is 1075.
It's gigantic.
And I was in Maui for about eight days.
Exactly.
How many calories are in that?
So many.
Look.
You could share it.
Yeah, you could share it.
Listen, you are such a small person.
It's not- Thank you for saying that
… it's, I mean, this is not helping.
You know?
Like, I mean, I think that
when we watch the training, and
I'm not watching it with you.
Do you wanna guess my weight or something?
Because I can't take all the
questions you're gonna ask.
I, I'm gonna move through it a lot
faster, 'cause I'm gonna be like,
"Yeah, I already knew that. Yeah,
I already knew that." I mean, I was
really just speaking for myself.
Yeah, yeah.
Call it projecting.
Yeah.
If I went to Maui and did what you did,
I wouldn't make it back in one piece.
They'd have to cut me in
half and put me in two seats.
Anyway.
There's Oreos in there.
So what is the s- what
is surrounding the Oreos?
Uh, chocolate chip cookie and, if I
remember correctly, there might've
been some peanut butter in there.
And yeah, there's Oreos on the inside
I can only get so excited about a cookie.
I'm gonna tell you that right now.
W- and this is pretty excited.
It's probably more excited than the
average person gets excited about cookies.
But compared to as excited
as I can get about ice cream-
Oh, let me read you the full description.
A massive 10 ounce chocolate
chip cookie stuffed to the brim
with Reese's, Snickers, and Oreo
Y- let's choose it.
Let's do it.
We're going this?
Yeah, let's do it.
This is so one of a kind.
And then you're back at, you're
b- what are you, a Taco Bell now?
This is fake Taco Bell ice cream?
This is actually from Salt and Straw.
This is their collab with Taco Bell.
They call it the Tacolit.
How was it?
Um, it is cinnamon ancho ice cream,
a hand-pressed crunchy waffle cone
taco dunked in dark chocolate and
studded with crunchy puffed quinoa.
And then it comes with those two dipping
sauces, wild berry and, uh, mango.
Quinoa gives me real bad gas.
That's fun, but yeah.
I'll take that into consideration.
Sometimes just a little bit.
Maybe worse than anything.
I've had a couple of quinoa
nights, I called them.
Quinoa night.
You do not… Listen, even on the third
row, it'd be too much for your wife.
I could roll down all the back windows.
You remember the, my parents had that van?
Sure.
The Voyager?
Yeah.
And the back windows wouldn't roll
down, but they would go out like that?
No.
No.
Yeah, yeah.
It just had a little, a, it's
a minivan, a minivan window.
The back, the back side windows.
Oh, the very back.
They pop.
Yeah, the very back.
They, they pop.
They pop and vent.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
It, it creates a, uh, a vacuum.
It's not enough.
It's not enough airflow
for me on a quinoa night.
Mm-mm.
Well, let's stay away from that.
Now we're stuck with this.
We're stuck with this.
That- This is fancy.
This is a cube.
Is that bread pudding or just bread?
This, this is a cookies and
cream filled croissant cube.
Oh, no.
Croissant cube?
From where?
I'm listening.
A place called Le Cream.
It's in a mall in Koreatown.
That's cray.
Which mall?
Um, I always get them confused.
I think it's called, like, Korean
International… One moment.
It's not the H Mart place.
I think we're gonna choose it just
'cause we are really intrigued.
There is an H Mart in it.
So we're going with that.
How, how good was it?
It's pretty good.
It's nothing I'd crave over- Flaky
throughout, gooey in the middle?
What?
Flaky throughout, gooey in the middle.
Yeah, gooey in the middle.
Man.
It's a lot of cream inside.
The cube of it all is pretty-
Oh, I bet … irresistible to me.
Oh, gosh, we've got more.
Okay.
So we've got a melting cheesecake?
Basque cheesecake.
Ah.
I'm not a huge fan- Yep … of
that type of cheesecake.
It's burnt on top.
Uh, not because of that.
It's burnt.
But because it's not as creamy
as I want a ch- I like a New York
style cheesecake more than that.
Listen, let me tell you
what you need to do.
Just get a, just get Cheesecake
Factory's boxed mini cheesecake.
It's perfect.
Not Basque, but boxed.
Boxed.
We're sticking with that.
How many more of these do we have?
You are a fiend.
We have 14 total.
Your metabolism is through the roof.
We don't have to do them all.
How many?
50? 14. What is that?
That is a strawberry halo salt bread
from Out of Order, also in Koreatown.
Have you had salt bread before?
Yes.
I think I've been … I
wa- I gotta go back.
I go to Koreatown quite a bit, but I've
kind of been hitting the same spots.
There's one in Little Tokyo I went to.
I gotta, I gotta delve deeper.
It's the only place- Salty and
buttery … in this city that, like,
stays alive as it gets late at night.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, there's just not another … LA goes
to sleep, but Koreatown g- stays awake.
Okay.
Uh, I think I gotta stick
with the cube, though.
Yeah, we will.
All right.
Let's end it with this one, 'cause
boy, I'm, I'm getting sluggish
What is this?
That is a pumpkin flavored soft serve ice
cream pie- Give me this … from Magpies.
This is what?
Pumpkin flavored soft serve
ice cream pie from Magpies.
Mm. That's ice cream.
Yeah, in a pie form.
I'm not a huge pumpkin guy.
Yeah.
I- I'm just a regular man … I
think, I think it's good to get to a
point where we don't want to either.
That means we're done.
That's not how we finish this.
How do you wanna finish?
I wanna finish with that.
We prefer that cube with the Oreo on top.
Okay, but it seems like that was the
best thing all day, and it's not.
Okay, then how about this donut?
What's so special about this donut?
I'm glad you asked.
That's the salt and
butter donut from Sidecar.
It's amazing.
Okay.
Okay, I gotta try that.
All right, we're gonna try this.
There's one next to the Howlin'
Ray's- Sidecar … in Pasadena,
so I really need to go there.
Oh, you listened.
Well, no, I've been there.
I know.
I was referencing the
fact that I told you that.
Yeah, you did, and I did know
that, and I do remember.
But I still haven't been there.
Now, what are you doing with
your nail in that picture?
Ladybug.
That, there's a bunny and a strawberry.
The bunny is named Miffy.
I thought it was Q-bert themed.
Next month.
Guys, we gotta stop.
I feel sick.
We're not eating enough.
I, I feel, I feel like I've eaten these.
Pl- come on.
Save it.
I just, eh.
