Today I’m gonna show you every single way to make a Rice Krispie treat, insofar as there are exactly 41 ways. Welcome back to “Mythical Kitchen.” Today, we have an equally important and daunting and exciting task. We are taking 41 different cereals and cereal-adjacent adjacent products, and we are turning them into Rice Krispie Treats to rank all of them and see which one is the most delicious. Nobody in the history of the world has done this except for the other people who have done this. But today it’s all about us. It’s all about our taste buds. And it’s all about delicious, crispy things covered in marshmallow and butter. So as you see here, we got the original Rice Krispies cereal. Then we got Honey Dijon Kettle Chips, Corn Flakes, Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds, Reese’s Puffs, Special K Red Berries, Cocoa Puffs, Cap’n Crunch, Raisin Bran, Oreo O’s, Frosted Mini-Wheats, Jalapeno Kettle Chips, Ginger Snaps, instant ramen, Cheez-Its, Trix, pork rinds, popcorn, Grape Nuts, Ritz Crackers, Takis, wet macaroni, Life, Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, shrimp chips, Corn Pops, Fruity Pebbles, Chicken in a Biskit, Lucky Charms, Honey Ohs!, Chex Mix, wasabi peas, wet rice, Thin Mints, Cookie Crisp, Oreos, Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, Nutter Butters, and then the last two are something really special. Everybody, we’ve officially made our own cereal brand. It is called MishMash, and over here we have the Peanut Butter N’ Honey Sandwich. Over here we have the Sweet Mac N’ Mellow. This is an anytime cereal. We’re not gonna come into your house and make sure you’re eating this for breakfast. No, you can eat this at any time. It was inspired by all the nostalgic flavors that we loved as a kid. I know for me, peanut butter and honey sandwiches have always been better than peanut butter and jelly. So go buy them at eatmishmash.com. That’s E-A-T-M-I-S-H-M-I-S-H.com. Got ’em like the modern Billy Mays out here, slinging ShamWows. Except these are ShamWows you can eat. That’s the official tagline. ShamWows you can eat. You spelled mishmish. Just go to eatmishmish.com. Just, if you want this cereal, you can find out how to buy it. Are people typing in full URLs? No, somebody before I said that just typed in like, mishmash to Google on their phone and then they got there. It’s delicious. Eat it, trust me. But we’re gonna find out today when we turn that into a Rice Krispie Treat. Speaking of which, hey, we should do, we should probably do that. Man, we got a lot. Much like Emeril Lagasse, bam! On the Food Network, I will be demonstrating how to cook food and specifically how to make Rice Krispie Treats. Y’all have probably done this. One has to imagine. I’m a huge Rice Krispie connoisseur, though. You gotta start it with like, what is this? An iced tea spoon slash swizzle stick. It’s my method of choice. And we have all the butters and the marshmallows in separate containers. They’re all going in the same. But we’ve measured out the amount of ounces of cereal-like things and the amount of ounces of butter and marshmallow just to make this consistent. So we’re gonna add that to our pot. While that is melting, the marshmallows are gonna go in there and then I’m gonna scoop equal amounts and of those cereal things. Now I know what you’re saying. “Josh, what the hell?” And I go, “I, I.” Then you’re gonna say that the Rice Krispies are smaller than all the other things. What I’m gonna do is I’m going to use my hands. I’m going to punch each ingredient until it ends up roughly the same size as Rice Krispies cereal because this is how science is done and eh, in there. That’s gonna melt. And then I’m not trying to get like a full dust and mash. We just want to, you know, roughly mimic the shards of a Rice Krispie. Beautiful. That’s just gonna need like one punch. Ooh, MishMash cereal punch as well. I love that. Just a light punch. Just a light punch. And, oh, Honey Dijon Kettle Chips to me are the best chip in the game. The best potato based chip, I should say. And right into the Cheez-Its. I think that cheddar flavor is really going to add cheddar flavor. And then Honey Dijon. Wait, hear me out. I think this could be really good because like sweet and salty is a great combo. Anytime I’m making baked goods, I’m adding a hefty amount of salt. Iced tea spoon! So I think the Honey Dijon is really gonna work. Best dessert I’ve ever had was a mustard-based ice cream. And also in our cookbook, we have a recipe for mustard-based ice cream, actually, which is really great. Cool mashed boom. Use your Mythical Kitchen Smatula. Go ahead and boom, more iced tea spoons. Yeah, I got about 15 iced tea spoons in this pocket. Okay, so listen, Smatulas have their place. If I was making a risotto in a pan right now, I would not be using iced tea spoons. If I were making a large quantity of these, I would be using the Smatulas. But get a little tiny bowl, this is gonna be able to get in the nooks and crannies of a smaller quantity much more easily. I’ll use the Smatula for the last one. So you’re gonna go ahead and you’re gonna mix with your Mythical Kitchen Smatula ’cause the best part about this is the double-ended tool. And then you can just, Oh my God, wow! We’re gonna add all this to a little mold. Can you guys see it? So we have a little, what are these rectangles? So we have a row of rectangle molds ’cause we need to make these small enough to be able to make 37 more kinds, and so we’re just gonna start mashing them. Yeah, just kind of finger it into the little rectangle. Fantastic. We’re just gonna set these all in the fridge and then we’re gonna blind taste them. We’re gonna rank each one out of 100 and see which one officially reigns supreme. Is that an Amber Alert? No, the fridge is buzzing. Sorry. The children are safe! No, no, no, no. There’s, Now we got the Mac N’ Mellow cereal. Now this is a Sweet Mac N’ Mellow, not the savory Mac N’ Mellow that your mom used to make. But it’s shaped like macaronis. It’s got marshmallows in it. It’s orange. It’s very fun. I think this, no, you know what? If I’m being honest, not to pick my favorite sons out here. No, I do enjoy the Peanut Butter Honey Sandwich. It’s just incredible. It’s crunchy, tastes like wheat. I think that has a good shot to win. As far as wild card ones that I think could win, the Honey Dijon Kettle! I’m telling you, I think savory does really well. Corn Flakes won the fried chicken battle, which is very similar to a Rice Krispie battle. Cinnamon Toast Crunch, I think is too obvious. I think it’s gonna be too sweet. What else we got? Wasabi peas, it’s gonna be gross. Oh, rice chewy treats! That’s the one I wanted to talk about. We took wet cooked rice and we’re gonna mix it with marshmallow to almost create like a deconstructed mochi situation. And as somebody who loves dense, chewy textures, I think that’s gonna win. I think Rice Krispie Treats were a marketing ploy to sell more crisped up rice because back then, chewy rice didn’t need a marketing ploy, but now it does. Rice chewy treats. As you can see, we have blindfolds on. Nicole and I will be eating all 41 of these crisped treats and then Trevor and Vi will be feeding them to us as we make our rapid fire rankings on a scale of 100. Nicole, did you hear that? Do you remember last time we were blindfolded, I hate to feed you an orange? We tried to break the world record for fastest blindfold duo to eat an orange. Yes, go! Come on, come on! Clear. Come on, come on. Tell me you’re clear. Done. All right, you ready to get to it? Yeah! Yes. All right, feed us the first one. I don’t wanna eat it. Not all of it. Not all of it. I’m gonna give you a little one. One to 100? 69. Nice! 83. Here’s the next one. There you go. I feel so bad. I don’t. For them. This is so much marshmallow and butter. No, I’m gonna say 37. 42. Wait, I gotta swallow. We’re waiting for Josh. I’m trying not to flashback to the orange. I’m sorry. Yum! Yum! Yum, 89. Um, 71. Yum! Can I spit? Yeah, you can, hold on. You don’t have to lean. Go. I can maneuver towards you. Ah, ah. You need it again? Ah, no. 50! Wait, what number did you just bite? 36. Four. Ready? Uh-huh. Here comes the train. Choo choo! It’s gonna be the same one. 54. Uh-uh! Nine! Ah! You wanna spit it out? No! Fight it. I know which one that is and it’s- That’s a freaking Cheez-It! No, it’s not. It’s Chicken in a Biskit. Yeah, you’re probably right. Okay. Oh my goodness. It takes him like eight seconds of chewing- 70. To get to being upset. I’m ready to spit again. Hold. Hold on. Ah. 70? I’ll gave her a 61. This feels so intimate. I like it. I like the bonding. It’s very intimate. I just taste pure marshmallow. I don’t taste much. That makes me taste better when I go mm-mm. I’ll give it a 70. I’m gonna give it a 64. You’re gonna really like this one. Mm! Yeah. 81. Say 83. So intense. What is that? His lips. What is that? Tastes like fruits. 57. 55. I wanna go home. Bro, we’re on number 10! I mean, oh my God. Are you sure? Are you kidding me? Only on 10. Yes. I feel like I’ve been here for 25 years. This one tastes like chip. Want another bite? 40. Nope. Next one. 36. Ew. 14? 14? Ah. 11. Ah. Ah. I don’t want it. Is that Shredded Mini-Wheats? That’s 25. 25. Did you eat the next one? Yeah. Your turn. I’ve been spitting them out categorically. My mouth is open. I can’t taste anything after the last one. I dunno. 12. Oh. Oh my God. No. Is that a rice? That’s a rice chew chew, baby. Whatever it is, this is delightful. I’m saying 76. 99. Get outta here. That’s your favorite? I have crappy standards. Don’t yell. I’m crying. I’m crying! I’m gonna say 74. Oh my God. Four. Savory cracker. 41. You’re gonna need a jaw massage after. I have TMJ. Do you also have TMJ? TMI. Ah! Grape Nuts! Ah! Zero! Ah! Grape Nuts! Ah! Mm! I love Grape Nuts. Oh my God. Oh, I love that. 80! 80, baby. That’s a B. Zero! Zero! God! What? That’s chewing your way through a gravel pit. That’s the best part. You spit it out. I have to spit them all out. Okay. Familiar. Yeah. Eh, 54. I give that a 67. Okay. 80. No, no. 79, 79, 79, 79, 79. What number are we on? You know. You know. I’ll say 82. What number are we on? We are on 18. Are you, how many? What’s 18 minus, what’s 41 minus 18? I’m really bad at math. Yeah, use a different part of your mouth. This is torture. I can’t do that anymore. Oh no. No. 21. 21 19. Ah. Oh my God, that was really bad. That’s a Chex Mix. You guys both gave correct answers to the question what’s nine plus 10? Oh oh, that’s the Honey Dijon! I wanna go home. I don’t like it! Ah! Ah! That’s zero! No, one! It’s better than Grape Nuts. Anything is better than Grape Nuts. This is a zero. I had high hopes. That was terrible. Oh God, that is one of the worst things I’ve ever tasted that isn’t a Grape Nut. My God, I love the Grape Nut one. How was it so bad? Oh my God, I need something to like, cleanse my palate. Okay. Wait. Annalise, should we take a quick sip of water? It was okay. Keep rolling. 72. We don’t need, we don’t need an answer. Keep rolling. 72! I give this one a 50. The cameras stay rolling. 72. I’m crying. Mop it up with the eye, with the eye thing. Coming in hot. Mop it up. Coming in hot. No! You spit it out on the floor! I’m sorry. I’ll clean it up later. That’s it. Two. That’s, do you have more, Trevor? Yeah. Can I try it? I spit it out. I was so shocked. Can I say, I think I know what happened. That’s the macaroni one and I think what happened is steamed the marshmallows until it turned into a goo. Turned around and he spit it out. The only thing it had going for it is it’s not- Oh my God! That it is not a Grape Nut. Gimme more. Is there anymore? Yeah, this is- Okay, this is the last time I’m gonna try it. Hold up. Wait, wait, what are you putting in my mouth? It’s a, it’s an old one. Yeah, spit it out. Spit it out. That’s the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. Ah! Grape Nuts! Zero. They’re back! Zero. Annalise, this is zero. Wait. Wait. I’m scared. 20, we’re on 22, y’all. Hold on. Yeah, let Josh bite that one. All right. Hold on. Unless you wanna rewrite the same one. This one I give 45. I’ll give it an 82. Okay, here go. Here go. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Do you wanna go back to Grape Nuts? No! No Grape Nuts. The dentist is gonna love you after this. Okay. I have knives. 92. No, 92. I give it an 89. Okay, you guys ready for the next one? Wide, buddy. Open wide. Oh. Oh. Four. 87? What are you? I like that one. It’s soft. You’re an alien. Come in. Come in, buddy. Nice. Oh my God. I feel bad. I keep sinking outta the camera, I think, ’cause I’m trying to inch away from him. That’s an 87. 89. That’s great. Mm! Dear God. I’m a texture girl. These textures aren’t working for me. 17. 91. That’s great. You don’t like the cookie cracker texture? I do. Why do you keep going forward so aggressively? Wow, what is this? What is this? Please, God. This is how you get in the gates to heaven. No, 11. 11. Ah! Four. Ah! What is that? What is that? What are you doing to me? I need to- What? What are you doing? What did you say? I need to understand it. I don’t understand it. What was that? Oh, it was something. What was that? I don’t understand. Eight. Eight. It tastes like cellophane. That was pork rinds. I want to give you- 12! Sucks! 17. I’m not okay. It’s okay. You can cry. Nobody’s gonna see it. I’m crying. I’m crying. 43. 30. I don’t know what’s going. What was it? It smelled like Lysol. Did you sniff it? You can if you want to. Ah! Gotta go faster. 20. 58. Ah! Ah! God! No! I thought it would be good! Yeah. Yeah. I thought it would be good! That’s worse than Grape Nuts! And I hate Grape Nuts. Negative three! Zero! This is my nightmare. This is my own personal nightmare. Be professional. I have a feeling this is all things people say on rollercoasters. Mm. Okay. Nice. What is it? Like a 90? Okay. I’ll go. Well, I reckon I’ll go 85. Next. Here you go, little baby. I don’t like this weird texture. Four, 39. 61. I have heartburn. Mm! Nom nom nom. Ah! Ah! That’s shrimp! Nom nom! That’s shrimp! Nom nom, no, I like it. 75. That’s shrimp! Ah, 58. Still pretty good. That tastes like fish cakes. What? What is this? Oh. Oh my gosh, no. Oh my God. Eight. It’s popcorn and it’s nine. It’s eight. Almost there. I’m gonna go with a 60. 73. Oh God, Vi. I don’t want to anymore. I don’t wan to anymore. You know, if you think about it- A little bit, whatever you just- It’s not the best but still like a 63. Honestly, 65. That’s Takis. It’s really good. That’s Takis. Yeah, this is a 63. Mint. Ooh, mm! Wow! No! 79. Nah, 20! Eh! Tastes like a menthol cigarette. I like it. There you go. Was that last one? 50. It tastes like menthol and Takis now. All right. I don’t know, man. Like 51. Last one. Last one. I don’t want this one. I don’t wish this to be in my mouth. Why is it so crunchy? Want a different one? I swear to God, Trevor, just get it in my mouth. Here you go. What is it? Oh God! Grape Nuts again! Oh, is this wasabi peas? I’m gonna give that one a 15. I can’t believe I did this. Stop it. Wasabi peas. 61. Oh. Whoa, you guys have completed it. Can we take our masks off? I’m gonna do some calculating. Oh, Nicole. Nicole. Okay. Someone’s gonna find this attractive, right? The five that got the worst scores were Skinny Pop, pork rinds, Pops, cooked macaroni noodles, and Kettle Honey Dijon, with a score of one point as the absolute worst. Grape Nuts! Grape Nuts Were good. What were our top five? Your top five were Cocoa Puffs, Fruity Pebbles, Rice Krispies, Oreo O’s, and Peanut Butter N’ Honey Sandwich. Peanut Butter N’ Honey Sand. I remember that one. That was God, I don’t know what I ranked it. Maybe my favorite, though. It’s just, it’s got a great wheat flavor and I’m a sucker for a good wheat flavor. Me too. Well, this was fun. Was it? You had fun? Fun is a word you would describe? Her eyes say so. Eating a rice chewy treat? This was one of the worst things I ever had and I was so excited for it. The macaroni was actually the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. Oh, if I ever have Grape Nuts put in my mouth against my will again, I’m gonna have a conniption. Don’t go chasing waterfalls. Stick to, stick to the rivers and the Rice Krispies that you’re used to. Because a lot of these other things, the wasabi peas, did we think this was gonna be successful? No, I think we did it for the LOLs. We did it for the LOLS. Go to eatmishmash.com. Pick yourself up some MishMash today. Get in the kitchen. Cook up some Rice Krispie treats for your kid.
