- That's 90 minutes of aggressive kissing, you really gotta be going for it. You really gotta be
reaching for the molars. (upbeat music) - Good Mythical Morning. - What's crispy, greasy,
and delicious all over? - Me after a day at the spa. - Oh, okay. No, I was thinking
about deep fried food. Okay, and sure, deep
fried food tastes amazing. But what if I told you there
was a healthier alternative to cooking up them deep fried foods? And what if I told you that
it was called an air fryer? - What if I told you that we
all know what an air fryer is? - Let me have my moment, man. - Okay. Have your moment. - Air fryer. The air fryer uses hot air to
cook food rather than hot oil, and it does so allegedly
without sacrificing taste. But is that true or is it
just a bunch of hot air? Get it? It's time for Worth the Weight, Deep Fried Vs Air Fried Edition. - We're gonna be presented with
two of the exact same dish, except for the fact that
one has been deep fried, and the other has been air fried, and we're gonna taste
them, while blindfolded, so that we're going just off of taste, not off of the looks or anything else, to decide which one we like better, and then see if we can determine
which one was deep fried. - Right, and then we're
gonna decide if the dish made in the deep fryer is good enough to justify eating that
extra fat and those calories that come with it, AKA,
is it worth the weight? Weight. Weight.
- For it. - [Stevie] Up first is the most classic fried dish of them all, French fries. For a serving size of about
one large russet potato, the deep fried version has 942 calories, and the air fried
version has 292 calories. Can you tell which French
fries are deep fried? - Well I'm still over
here in front of Rhett, and I'll say... - They're good, but
they're not super crisp. - [Link] There's a little bit of crunch, but there's a lot of potatoey,
they're a thick fry, though. - [Stevie] I will tell you,
there's also ketchup available if you can feel around blindly and find the container in
which the ketchup is in. And that ketchup is neither
fried, nor air fried. - Where is the freaking basket? - They're equally, what are you doing? - Is that a hand? I'm trying to, I was trying to- - Is what a hand, a fry? - I'm trying to dip into the juice. - I decided not to dip
into the juice, because, that's not the thing I'm really assessing. - I'm 100% convinced which
one is the deep fried. - I think they taste equally good. - Nope, they don't. - [Stevie] Okay, reminder,
you're gonna put your hand over the one that you think is deep fried. You ready to guess?
- Yeah. - [Stevie] Three, two, one. - Definitely these. - [Stevie] The deep fried French
fries are on Rhett's side. - But it wasn't easy for me. - It's super greasy, and
there's, I mean the oil is good, and the potato is kinda all right. - [Stevie] But if you were
served the air fried ones, without having the deep fried, would they be tasty or
would you be like "Eh..." - There's an extra 650 calories? - Yeah, that's a lot of calories. You have to ride at a
full gallop on a horse for 54 minutes to burn 650 calories. Yeah, I basically know a
lot about calorie burning and horses galloping. - Riding on a horse is a good thing, I'm looking for any excuse to get back on a horse. - You put 'em side by side and
now I know what I'm missing, but I wouldn't immediately know that I was missing something. And I don't really wanna be on
a horse for that long anyway. - Right. Saddle sore. - So is it worth the weight? No. - We're gonna stick with this. Oh, look, we're healthy starting out. - Yeah, starting out healthy. - [Stevie] Up next we've
got coconut shrimp, for a recommended serving
size of four shrimp, the deep fried version has 323 calories, and the air fried
version has 236 calories. - Not too much difference. - [Stevie] Can you spot
the deep fried shrimp without going coconuts? - Now, Rhett, there's a
tail on this, so be careful. - You eat the tail when it's fried, dude. I just ate the whole thing. - No you didn't. - Yeah, you eat the tail when it's fried. Ask Josh, he's a chef. - Josh, do you eat the
tail when it's fried? - [Josh] Rhett does. - Exactly. - But I'm not gonna eat
it on the air fried one, unless that's not over here. - [Link] Coconut shrimp, why? I don't get the coconut part. - Huh. Hm... - One of these is definitely better. - [Stevie] Are you not
going to attempt to dip, 'cause that was my favorite
part of the last round. - I'll attempt to dip. - I didn't know it was your favorite part. - I feel like I'm always
hitting Link's hand every time I try to do it. - [Stevie] That time you very much were. Now you're hitting his
discarded half shrimp. Oh, oh oh, go back, go back towards Link. No no no, yep, yep. - [Rhett] Oh, now this feels really good. - I love a good tartar sauce. - [Stevie] I don't believe
that's tartar sauce, because it is a bright yellow, but... - Just go to crispy town
with me for one second. - One of these is dramastically
better than the other. - The one in front of you, eat the tail of the one in front of you, and it will be just like fried goodness, I'm telling you, you eat
fried tails of shrimp! Just eat it. I've done it all my life! - [Stevie] Ooh, good dip, Link! - Oh, is it? - Just eat the whole
thing, you will not be like "Oh, there's tail in there," it's extra crispy, it's good. It's goodness, it's been broken down. You've been missing out
on tail your whole life! - Huh, there's nothing to it. - [Stevie] You ready to guess? Okay, hands over deep
fried in three, two, one. - This one is so good.
- This one's a lot better. - [Stevie] Yeah, you guys are both right. - The shrimp itself just
tasted so much better. I mean we're only talking
87 extra calories, which if we put that
in terms of vacuuming, you just have to vacuum for 18 minutes to burn those extra calories. - Vacuuming can be tricky, though. - You know what I'd love to do? Ride a horse, vacuum at the same time. It's kinda like polo,
but much more productive. - You gotta get a special vacuum, you gotta get a long neck. - Oh, I can do that. - Have you seen the guy
who vacuums the field? He also eats the tail of the shrimp. Nobody eats the tail of the fried shrimp? - [Stevie] I do, I really do,
I eat the tail every time. - So we are saying that
it is worth the weight. - Oh, very much, yes,
worth that extra weight. - So much tastier all the way through, and so what is this? - We're always adding new products to the Mythical store, right? And we're always, they're selling, and then they don't sell
forever, and so we've created a last chance section where you can go to get soon to be discontinued items, all in one place at Mythical.com. Go check it out. - [Stevie] Guys, you
have delicious-looking fried Snicker bars in front of you. If you were to have
two of these deep fried fun-size Snicker bars,
it would set you back 564 calories while the
air fried Snicker bars only have 360 calories. Which Snicker bars have been deep fried? - Huh. - I haven't had a deep fried
Snicker in a long time, I'm blocking you out. - Why are you blocking always over here? - I'm just showing the
other half of my Snicker. - Oh, okay. - One of these tastes really strange. Does one of 'em taste
really strange to you? - Yep. Strange. - The other one, not so strange. And a little crispier. - I can't say that I
particularly like either one. - I know, I'm a bit disappointed. Are they covered in powdered sugar? - [Stevie] Uh-huh. - [Link] Oh. - [Stevie] I feel like you both are on the same wavelength here, you ready to put your hand over it? Three, two, one. - This one's definitely better. - [Stevie] Yeah, you're right. - [Link] They look darker. - See, what you don't
get with the air fryer. - What is this strange taste? - Okay, you see how there's
little bits and pieces that stick out, and
nothing happens to 'em? But on an air fried one,
the little bits and pieces, I mean on a deep fried one, they get crispy, these little edges, and I feel like it's all
about the crispy edges. - Is it 240 calories additional better? - You know 240 calories is
washing your dog for 50 minutes. Almost an hour of dog washing. And if you've got a big old dog, or maybe several dogs, maybe if you're a dog
washer, if that's your job. - It takes me probably,
I mean I blow dry Jade. That's what takes so long. - That's the best part is not blow drying. What we do is we towel dry Barbara, and then she runs around like literally a demon-possessed dog, drying herself off on all the carpets and stuff. And we love watching that. - But then you've got
wet dog on your carpets. - We don't care, we're the McLaughlins. - Okay, but the reason why I blow dry Jade is 'cause it makes her a lot
more fluffier and poofier. - We don't want Barbara to get a big head. - But that still only
takes like 20 minutes. And she doesn't like it, so I wouldn't wanna put her through that. - [Stevie] Here's the thing, if you're going for a
deep fried Snickers bar- - [Rhett And Link] Go all the way. - [Stevie] Yeah!
- You're right, so we're saying, it is worth the weight. - It's worth that 50
minutes of dog washing. - Quality time with the dog. - [Stevie] Now it's
time for some egg rolls. With a serving size of two egg rolls, the deep fried egg
rolls have 668 calories, while the air fried egg
rolls have 352 calories. Can you spot the deep fried egg rolls? Yeah, I'm sorry, there's no dips for this. I don't know why I'm
apologizing, but I am sorry. - Yeah, you should
apologize. I wanted to dip. This is pretty good. You didn't likee? - I didn't lovee. Whoops, sorry, you're
brushing my egg roll. Okay. - Huh. - Definitely more crunch. - There's more flavor, it got into this. - You okay? - Got right into my lung! Something about it worked
its way inside the egg roll. - To me, it's not a drastic difference. I think I know which one's fried. - [Stevie] Hand over the deep
friend in three, two, one. - It's gotta be, yep, it's
gotta be this one, right? - [Stevie] You are both
incorrect this time. - I was gonna say, that was
crunchy, but this was crispy. You know the difference? That had a hard plate in it almost, but look at what's happening, look at the deformities that
happened in the deep fryer. - To me they taste the same, so 316 calorie difference, and if you put that in terms of canoeing, you've gotta canoe for
24 minutes straight. - And that depends on
who you are, because, lot of times you canoe and you
just don't pull your weight, you let the other person do all the work. - I'm assuming single man
canoe, four miles an hour. - Like when I take my kids canoeing- - Well, that's your first mistake. Put 'em in kayaks. Everyone gets their own kayak,
and everyone's accountable. Even paddleboats. - Look how much better this looks, though. - Yeah, but, we're taking
that out of the equation, we're saying it is not worth the weight. And neither is getting in a
canoe with someone you love. - [Stevie] Last up, we've
got fried chicken wings, coated in TGI Friday's ghost pepper sauce. The deep fried wings have 1114 calories, and the air fried wings have 756 calories, which wings are deep fried? And you found the dipping
sauce, both of you. Yes, 10 out of 10. - Oh, ghost pepper, I'm a little scared. - It's not that hot. I kinda just missed my mouth. Like, completely, like I forgot how to eat 'cause I can't see it. Sometimes I just begin to
eat and forget why I'm here. - That's called being in the zone, Rhett, that's a good thing. Forget that you're here. - What was that? - You dipping in your mug? - [Rhett] I got a mug. Do you have a mug? - Yeah, I got... what is that? Oh, that's my mug. - Coming in with a pretty wet hand, here. Hm, there's definitely a big
difference in taste to me. - [Stevie] I feel like you're
gonna both chip a tooth or choke on a bone the way
you're both eating these wings, it's frightening. - I never realized how
much I rely on my eyes while eating wings. - All right, there was
one that tastes better. I would not say it's flip over backwards and have a cow better. - I would. - [Stevie] Okay, hand over the deep fried, three, two, one. - These, man. - Oh, you over here? - Yeah, this is deep fried. - Oh, way over there. - [Stevie] You're both correct. - Yeah, once you get to
the wingy part itself, and you get over the pepperness. It actually, the fried edges
tasted a whole lot better. - But again, it's next,
okay, 358 calories. - Okay, put that in terms
of aggressive kissing. - That's 90 minutes of aggressive kissing. You really gotta be going for it, you really gotta be
reaching for the molars. I mean, I think I'd be into, I'd be into like 20 minutes of kissing. - Like a make-out party
in early high school? - I mean marriage is awesome, but you just don't sit
and kiss for 90 minutes once you get married. I mean, you do other things, and you watch a lot of
television together. - So what are you getting at here, you don't think it's worth it. I think these are perfectly acceptable, almost pushing 360 calories. - 350 calories is not that many calories, I mean in terms of kissing, but yeah, I think you lose
too much of the crisp, which is what makes a wing a wing. - [Link] I'll defer. - So yes, we're saying
the deep fried wings are worth the weight. So kind of a mixed bag. I mean, not everything is better, and not everything is worth the weight. - Egg rolls, proceed with caution. Wings, I could be fine with it. I don't know. - And French fries, surprisingly, you can get by with
those on the air fryer. - Thanks for subscribing

I really can’t deal with the no “let’s talk about that” and “as you can see, we can’t”
I've really never understood the point of a 'preview' of the video we are literally about to watch that has been running rampant on most youtube channels. First of all, it's a 5 second clip and it's annoying to someone like myself who doesn't want anything spoiled/ruined. And second, we've already clicked on the video, we've already decided to watch it, literally no one is going to watch the first 5 seconds and decide whether or not to watch the video based off of that. It serves absolutely no purpose, and I wish this 'trend' if you could call it that, would go away.
Link's funniest one-liner in a while was the "Yup, definitely an almond" in GMMore today
I have a few problems with the air fryer food they made. If something isnt crispy after being air fried then your doing it wrong.
“Dramastically.” I’m kinda disappointed they didn’t discuss this new word.
Air fryers are just convection ovens. Bit disappointed that the food team couldn’t do this better.
940 something calories for deep fried French fries seems like it’s way to much compared to the air fried 290 calorie version?
TFW you live in San Diego and you've been to the specific La Jolla UTC Hot Dog on a Stick that Matt Carney worked at.
Anybody know where to find Rhett’s shirt? I love ugly plaid.
