- Do Tyson Nuggets
actually rule the roost? - Let's talk about that. (upbeat music) Good mythical morning. - Nothing makes a parent feel more secure than having a freezer full
of frozen chicken nuggets. Now, when my kids were younger, we would even keep the
oven preheated constantly to have a batch ready
just to keep 'em quiet. "Daddy, he stole stole my..." Put a chicken nugget in her mouth. - "Daddy, he bit my..." Put a chicken nugget in his mouth. It's like a stopper for your tub, but for your kids' mouth - That's right, but as the
kids have gotten older, they're like "Daddy, this
chicken nugget is nasty." It doesn't work to put it back in there. - Right. - They just demand quality. And so do I, because Christie will pop a nugget in my mouth
every now and again too. - Keep that between you and Christie, don't bring that out into our open. Today, we're gonna find the frozen chicken nugget brand
that you should demand. It's time for Which Frozen Brand Makes The Best Chicken Nuggies? And Which One Tastes Like
an Old Pair of Huggies? - We're gonna be tasting six of the most popular frozen
chicken nugget brands. And we're gonna use our sense of taste to rank them on the board behind us. - From worst to best we
have, Cock-A-Doodle-Poo, Clucks to Be You, Breast And Sigh, Hen Stefani, you know, because
Gwen Stefani is just okay. I don't know if I believe that. I like Gwen Stefani, I'm a big fan. Her and Blake Shelton make a great couple. And number two, #Winging, and number one, Roost, There It Is! - Roost there it is. - Let's start munching. (upbeat music) - First, we got it what I usually think of when frozen chicken nuggets are mentioned, the Tyson Chicken Nugget, which you'll be glad to know
is 100% natural ingredients. - This thing is $6.68
for a 32 ounce package. And Tyson, they own the
meat game in United States. Listen, they produce approximately 20% of the beef, pork
and chicken in the US, through both Tyson and
other acquired brands. - Dang Tyson, that's a lot. - Are you doing sauce or no sauce? - No sauce at first. And it's kind of mushy, you know? The taste-
- It's spongy. - Spongy, the taste is decent. And just to give you a little
chicken nugget fun fact, chicken nuggets were
created by Robert C. Baker. You know him, he's a food scientist from Cornell back in the 1950s. They were originally
called chicken crispies. - That's a bad idea. I would eat a whole plate of these, now- Because you're starving
or because you're Rhett? - [Rhett] Yeah, because- - [Link] Or 'cause you
haven't eaten any of em? - I'll eat a lot of plates of anything. But it's a solid nugget. - I mean, is it Hen Stefani? - I think it's more breast and sigh. - [Link] All right. - I don't wanna disrespect Gwen. I feel bad about the whole
system that we got here. (upbeat music) - Okay, now we've got Banquet
100% Natural Chicken Nuggets. - Everybody's getting on
the natural bandwagon. These are the cheapest, or maybe I should just say
the least expensive nugget that we're gonna be tasting today. - They're crispier. - It's almost like they
have a shell of breading. - They're peppery. These are not that far
off of a Tyson Nugget. This is my first inclination. - I like black pepper on things. But it's very strongly black peppery. And the meat seems denser. - You like dense meat? - Well, I don't like spongy meat. But I like the taste of the Tyson better than this, a little bit. - I think the taste of
the Tyson is better. But this is less spongy. I don't know, I think
they're close contenders. But I think- - I think the taste of the
Tyson's gonna edge it out, even though you got the sponginess. - I agree. Again, just so we're all on the same page, I would eat a whole plate of 'em. (upbeat music) Okay, we're dealing with some nuggets that are just normal price here. But have you ever tried
a $231 Chicken McNugget? Well, Mythical chef Josh and Nicole, they actually are doing crazy stuff like that over on the
Mythical Kitchen channel. And they also have a podcast
called A Hot Dog Is a Sandwich, where they debate food feuds, and that kind of thing, you know? So go check it out over on
the Mythical Kitchen channel. - #Opinionsarelikecasseroles. Go subscribe, check out the channel. Okay, next up we've got Applegate
Naturals Chicken Nuggets, which are the most expensive ones we're gonna be tasting today,
$9.79 for a 16 ounce package. - They're they're a little
more expensive because- - Each one is smaller. - Because the chickens
are humanely raised, right up until the point where
they just kill 'em. (laughs) (crew laughs) - I bet they're humanely
slaughtered as well. But you know what? Let's not talk about that. These are little. - We do a lot of Applegate
stuff at my house. But we don't do the nuggets. I didn't know they had 'em. - These are the most dense we've tasted. - I don't particularly like 'em. - You know what it is? I think that it tastes the most like chicken of anything we've had. And it's kinda like, what's that effect? When like a robot gets
too close to being human? - Uncanny Valley. - We're in the Uncanny
Valley of a chicken nugget, that it's becoming too much like chicken. And it doesn't taste as good. - You don't want your nuggets
to be too much like a chicken. - It's dry, I admit- - [Rhett] They're too small. - [Link] I miss the sponginess. - I'm sorry, Applegate. - And this is the first out of the three that I've been compelled to
dip to cover up the taste. - Yeah, listen, we're gonna
put you out the back gate, Applegate, Cock-A-Doodle-Poo
for right now. - I appreciate the humanity of how you're approaching things, but... - Oh, the humanity. (laughs) - Not working. (upbeat music) - Okay, they call these Earth's Best Chicken Nuggets, For Kids. So it's not the Earth's
best chicken nuggets, and then you can give 'em to your kids? Or is it just the Earth's
best chicken nuggets for kids? - Well, when I first looked at it, I just thought it said
kids chicken nuggets. And I was like, Oh, they're made of kids. - Kids nuggets. - Finally, putting kids to good use. - Now, look at this, these things are- - [Link] Them nugget. - The color of Dooky.
- Wow. - They're very rounded. - It looks like a fried okra or something. - Yeah. - You know how you like hard fry an okra? Ooh. - They taste pretty good, though. Do they not? I feel like I've lost my nugget-dar - Well, go back to the Tyson. Because okay, there's a spice on it. I like the consistency,
I like the meatiness. Well, I wanna show 'em the inside. Everything on the inside is good, but something about that breading, is it tastes like a weird
hush puppy from like a... - Cornmeal, it's got cornmeal
I betcha that's what it is. - [Link] That's what it is. - Corn starch, yellow corn flour, yeah. I'm not holding that against 'em. - Well, it's just... - It's not great. - I honestly don't think
it's as good as the Tyson, but I think it's better than the Banquet. - Well, I wanna taste the Banquet again. - Taste the Banquet.
- I'll get you one. - Uh-oh, I've got cross-contamination now. - Banquet's really black peppery, but more expected than the cornmeal. - Man, nuggets confuse me, in
ways that I didn't anticipate. I like these a little bit better than the Banquet, but neither one of 'em- - And I like the Banquet
a little bit better. So they're basically tied. - I'm fine with that. - We're just gonna do that. (upbeat music) - These next nuggets flew in all the way from Perdue Farms in Maryland. And they are the biggest
ones on the block. I mean, again, if you
compare this to the Tyson... - Yeah, I got a little
bit of a smaller one. But yeah, the biggest
of the big are bigger. - It is the size of a
McNugget from McDonald's. - Uh-oh. - You want another fun fact? Usain Bolt ate a hundred
chicken nuggets a day during the Beijing Olympics
because he wasn't used to Chinese food, and he
still got three gold medals. - So the moral of the story is, you wanna run fast, eat a lot of nuggs. - A hundred nuggets a day? - It can be done. This is back to what you expect. - This is everything I would expect. - It's a little bit
mushy, but in a good way. - They're thinner, and they are peppered. There's a little bit of pepper in it. - Is this the best nugget so far? It's definitely a
contender, (laughs) get it? - To Tyson. - I mean, I just feel like... We've got another round to go. I just don't wanna... I mean, I could eat a hundred nuggets. I mean, me and Usain could hang out and eat a hundred nuggets, but- - You know, let's throw
'em in at number one. And then let's hash it out if there's not one to
dethrone both of them. - Right, exactly. (upbeat music) And last, but certainly not least, we have the incomparable Yummy
Dyno Buddies Chicken Nuggets. - Yes, and these have a lot of mass. Here's a T-Rex. - This just goes to show you
that if you get into a chicken in the right way, you can get anything you want out of it, including dinosaurs. And ironically, chickens are
descendants of dinosaurs. - The same guy who invented
the chicken nugget, Robert C. Baker, also
invented processed chicken, which allowed for the special
shaping of dinosaur nuggets. I tell you, where would
we be without C. Baker? - [Rhett] Really crispy, huh? - Crispy, very thin. I think they got the same amount of meat, but it's like pounded out or something. - [Rhett] You can kinda taste the grease, which I kinda like. - There's some role-play
opportunity here, you know? (imitates dinosaur growling) - I eat too fast for that. And I'm just going with taste, not fun. - This is tough, man, because- - I think they may be a little too bland. Is that Tyson? - I agree, that's Tyson. And then bring down the Perdue, 'cause- - I think it comes down
to Perdue and Tyson. - Yep, these are really good. - That's a safe... - That's definitely a safe number three. Well, I mean, let me
taste the Banquet again. - Taste the Banquet. We take this very seriously. - But it doesn't taste as good, but it shaped like a dinosaur. - So you're giving it points for that? - Okay, all right.
- Heck yes. - Okay, so this right here,
this is Perdue, right? - Yeah, the big one, big and soft. - [Rhett] Which I like. - More orange, crunchier. They don't hide the flavor with pepper. - I prefer pepper. - They're so close. I just feel like the breading
over here has a nice taste and it's a little more substantial. - All right, so you seem to
feel very strongly about it. I think it's really, really close, but- - Switch 'em up, man. - I'm willing to go ahead with this. - Tyson is just gonna barely edge it out. Thanks for deferring to me, because I feel pretty
strongly that I'm correct. But you can't go wrong with Perdue. - Because this is completely objective. - Yes. - All right, there you go. Tyson chicken nuggets,
the best frozen nugget that you can get, who would
have thought that would happen? - I'm about to do a hundred mile dash. - Thanks for subscribing
and clicking that bell. - I think it's meters. You know what time it is. - Why, hello there. I'm Ryan from Pensacola, Florida, sitting here eating chicken,
watching the boys eat chicken. It's the good life, I tell ya. And it's time to spin
the wheel of mythicality. (Link laughs) - That's the good life, man. - I love how the nuggets on the computer. - On the keyboard. You can't navigate anywhere. - Yeah. - Click the top link to watch us debate what late night snacks reign
supreme in Good Mythical More. - And to find out where the Wheel of Mythicality is gonna land. - [Woman] Ketchup is a smoothie. - [Man] Yeah, I put ice
in my cereal, so what? - [Woman] That makes no sense. - [Man] Hot dog is a sandwich. - [Woman] A hot dog is a sandwich. - [Man] What?
I'm here because I need to take a second to recover from "Christy'll pop a nugget in my mouth."
Ngl, I'm a little alarmed at all the "100% natural and antibiotic free!" labels ...
Oh shoot, Iām the guy at the end living the good life š
Its 6 in the morning where I am and I really want nuggets now lol
Sorry but those bags of nuggets look like dog food packaging š
As a brit I've honestly never heard of any of those apart from Tyson and thats only because of last week tonight and food inc. I'm most familiar with Birdseye, Hearty Food Co etc.
Now I just want all of the junk food.
Don't even have to watch it and already know dino nuggets take the win (according to my 3 year old)
