- What's the perfect cost of the perfect sandwich?
(upbeat music) - Let's talk about that. - "Good Mythical Morning". - Now, as a mature adult
and father, which I am, there are things that I take seriously, the fact that Finland does not exist, chickens wearing little sweaters, and most importantly, sandwiches. If you haphazardly slap some
meat and cheese on bread and call it a sandwich, someone did not raise you right. - Okay.
- Sandwich making is an art. What's your favorite kinda sandwich? - Mike's Way, no tomatoes, or honestly, any sandwich
that someone else is willing to make for me, so I'm kinda on the other
end of the spectrum from you. - You can be taken advantage of (laughing) when that's your standard.
(Link laughing) Okay, well, the beauty of sandwiches is, there's a million types and a million different price points, but how much does cost really matter when it comes to sandos? (upbeat music)
It's time for Naked Foods, Naked Sandwiches Edition, Naked. - Now, since the goal is to find out how much price matters when
it comes to sandwiches, every sandwich that we're
gonna be tasting today must speak for itself.
- Mm. - There ain't gonna be
no chips, or fancy sides, or swanky bistro music to affect our decision.
- Oh, no swanky bistro music?
- No swanky bistro music.
- That's why I came today. - Everything is naked. - Okay, well, we're gonna be trying sandos from four different price points. - You've said, "Sandos," twice, I've never heard you
say, "Sandos," before. - Hey.
- They're putting that word in your mouth.
- It's a sando type a day. I say, "Sando," all the
time to my close friends. (staff laughing) - Four different price points, fast-food-ish establishments, which is gonna mean a
couple of different things depending on where it's from, fast-casual restaurants,
sit-down restaurants, and fine-dining establishments. - Uh-huh, each round, we're gonna pick our individually favorite sandwich. - You mean sando.
- And then Stevie's gonna tell us where the sandwich is from and how much it cost, so that, ultimately, we're gonna know how
expensive our preferences are and which sammies, sammies?
(Rhett laughing) I'll call 'em sammies, which sammies are double whammies.
- I've never heard you say, "Sammies." - You're right. - Let's start this sammy soiree. (upbeat music) - These are turkey clubs. - Yes, they are. - Taking us to the club, and some clubs immediately
look a lot tastier than others.
- Which ones? - I mean, starting over here. - Now, you're a sandwich man, and you get cold clubs sandwiches, I've seen you do that before. - This bacon is susp-ish, you know what I'm saying? (Link grunting)
- I believe it's sus, is what the kids are saying. - Oh. (laughing) - Not, "Susp-ish."
- Susp-ish, I like susp-ish, man.
(staff laughing) - Susp-ish is pretty good,
it's kinda like sando. - [Rhett] You can start susp-ish. - That just didn't come together for me. - I didn't like it.
- The sauce was nice. - This has a whole nother
piece of bread in the middle. - Yeah, this is very bread forward. - Tastes a whole lot better. - [Link] The turkey is
only underneath the bread, not above it. - It tastes a whole lot better, but it still just tastes like something I would do at my house, and I know people like the
taste of homemade stuff, but when it comes to a sandwich, it's so easy to make a sandwich, I want it to be like something like, "I don't know if I could do that," I want that to be the main question that's ringing in my ears.
- Yeah. I would be telling you what I think, but I'm spending all of my energy trying to get these tomatoes off of it. - Look at that onion, you
got a whole cross section. - Good gosh, look, stare
into that Eye of Sauron. (Link roaring)
(Rhett laughing) (staff laughing)
That'll give you the bad breath. I'ma get rid of some of that too, 'cause it scares me. A lot of bacon coverage on
this one, which I'm loving. - [Rhett] Hmm, these are pretty equal, not a bad taste.
- Whoo, the onions. That is a dry sandwich. - But the moment we've
all been waiting for, the one that looks good. (staff laughing)
- Look at how great this sandwich looks, it's
grilled on the outside. - It's got pickles, it's got some cheese, it's got meat on the bottom and the top. - Hold on, it's actually got ham on it. Is that that ham or just pink turkey? They're sliding ham into a turkey sam. - [Stevie] Well, their club. - Mm-hmm.
- But yeah, turkey forward, I suppose.
- That's good. - Hmm. Hmm. Hmm.
- Can you discard your tomatoes in your section? (staff laughing) 'Cause I'm having to put
my sandwich back down on your discarded tomatoes.
- Sorry, I thought that's what it was.
- Not that I'm gonna go back to it, but just
it's something you should do as a practice.
- All right. - [Stevie] You can nicely,
politely and not aggressively stab your favorites, in three, two, one. - Boom. Now, this is the most impressive sandwich, but I thought it was trying too hard. (staff laughing)
This tastes like something I can make at home, yes, but I'd be proud of it. - You definitely would,
because it's a sandwich with more than peanut butter and jelly. I didn't particularly like any of 'em, but that one was the best one. - [Stevie] Okay, Link, you have chosen our sit-down sandwich from
Du-par's Restaurant & Bakery, for 16.95.
- Du-par's. (price dinging)
- Do tell, Du-par's. - [Stevie] And Rhett, you've
chosen the casual sandwich from Carving Board for 13.50. (price dinging)
- Dang, son. - You know me, hey, listen, don't make too big of a deal out of it, keep it cas. - [Stevie] The first one is
our fast food-ish from Panera, for 10.09.
- That was horrible, horrible.
- Y'all need to add some soup, Panera.
- And then the one in between the ones you picked is our fine-dining,
most expensive sandwich, from Factor's Deli for 20 bucks. - 20 bucks? - That is ludicrous. - Y'all need some sauce on that. (upbeat music) - Mm. - These are tuna salad sandos. These two sandwiches look the same, those two sandwiches look the same. - Isn't sandos a susp-ish organization that makes fertilizer?
(staff laughing) - That's Monsanto. - Lots of onions lurking under this one. Oh, no tomatoes on my half. - Yeah.
- Seems like my tantrum paid off.
- We all got tired of watching you take 'em all off.
(staff laughing) That has a straight-from-the-sea sort of taste to it.
(staff laughing) Doesn't it? - I think it may just be your first bite, that first tuna salad bite
is gonna get you every time. - I mean, they're not being shy with the tuna salad in these places. - Really high stacks,
visible shards of egg, which really draws me in. (staff laughing) - Yeah, whenever I wanna
get you to do something, I start with shards of egg. - Mm. - [Rhett] That tuna salad
tastes a whole lot better to me.
- Mm-hmm. - There's nothing to the sandwich, it's just the salad, but. - It's not as fishy. - A shard full of eggs
makes the medicine go down. - Do we keep stepping up? Good gracious, they wanted
to get rid of some lettuce, they had a surplus.
(Rhett laughing) - Get rid of some lettuce. - Just slam it on there. - It's lettuce forward. (staff laughing)
- Too much lettuce. - It's got too much lettuce,
I should've taken some off. And finally. - These all look the same. - Oh, this looks like it's got dill in it. - Let me see that. - Oh.
(staff laughing) This has got. - This looks like it's got dill in it. (staff laughing)
And no tomato on it. - [Rhett] This has got
some shards of something. - [Link] Hmm, could it be fancy? - Mm, it's dill. - Wow. - And I love dill. - You know what, I like
dill, but that's too much. I cannot vote for that. - There's two that
stand head and shoulders above the rest.
- Mm-hmm, okay. - [Stevie] Three, two, one. - You know what?
- Wham, wham. - Actually, this is better, I love dill, but you over-dilled it. - [Stevie] Well, I didn't
expect to say this today, but we're gonna have to
have a three-way dance, because you both chose the fancy place.
(Rhett laughing) (upbeat music)
And you get to dance with the cow. - Hey, no three-way. (Rhett and staff laughing) Three-way. - This is how you three-way.
(staff laughing) Everybody can't face the
same direction, right? Oh man, I'm actually a little nauseous. - Yeah, we spun too much, had too much lettuce in us.
- So the sandwich you chose is from Art's Deli for $19.
(price dinging) And the ones that you did not choose, starting from Rhett's
side, our casual place, Phil's Deli & Grill for 9.50. - Hmm.
- Sit-down place, Daughter's Deli for 14.50. - Hmm.
- And that last one with too much dill's actually
from Ralphs for 5.99. - Really?
- Ralphs, y'all need to chill on the dill. - So it wasn't a froufrou
move, it was just a mistake. (Rhett and staff laughing) - It was just somebody having a bad day. - $20 for that sandwich. - I don't care how many eggs
shards you put in front of me, I'm not paying $20 for it.
- Yeah. (upbeat music) - Okay, we've got a big announcement that we're about to make, but before we do that,
I need to run outside. But first, pay close attention to what this shirt looks like right now. Okay, bye. (Rhett groaning)
- All right, Mythical Beasts, today marks the beginning of something that we hope is gonna develop
a life entirely on its own, it is a new apparel and accessories brand that we have developed. This is a shirt. Well, it's a hoodie that's a part of it.
(staff laughing) Might be like, "Oh, just your standard street wear-style designs, right?" Sike, sike. - Sike, look at my shirt.
- When you say, "Sike," you know what that means? It means that your shirt went from just being a
collection of mushrooms. - It's already fading,
let me go recharge it. - To being a pizza design. Every SiKE item holds a secret, something to surprise you, and everybody else that looks at you when you're wearing it,
sporting it, or using it. The concept, basically, you know what? It started with this mug when we said, "All right."
- I'm coming in quick, I'm coming in hot.
- "You guys are loving the fact that this thing changes, there's a surprise associated with it when you put hot water in it."
- Oh, it fades fast. - "What other things can we develop?" (Rhett sighing)
"And put in its own label, in its own stable, that can
surprise you and your friends?" - It's amazing how reactive it is, when I'm out in the sun, it
gets super bright yellow, and literally within
seconds of running in here, it begins to fade. So it's pizza outside, it's
just mushrooms on the inside. - This is not just a merch line, it is apparel, but it's a lot more, and lots of these are gonna
be released over time, just go to sike, S-I-K-E, .la. We did the dot la. - We're in LA. - To be the first to grab these and the other things that
are coming down the pike. I think it's a pike. - It's a pike, yeah.
- It's a pike? - It's SiKE. - SiKE, we're very excited about it. Stevie, give 'em the tag line, 'cause I forgot what
it was all of a sudden. - [Stevie] Made you look. - Made you look.
- Made you look, get it? - [Stevie] These are Reuben sammies. - These are Reuben sammies. - Very excited, this could be my all-time favorite kinda sandwich. I love a Reuben.
- Really? - [Rhett] I love a Reuben,
I always get a Reuben. - So a Reuben is pastrami, sauerkraut, thousand island dressing and?
- And Russian, Russian dressing. Get with the fricking program. - And Swiss? - Yeah, usually. - [Link] And a buttery, grilled-bun bread. - That one didn't even look good, but it sure tasted good. Marble rye here. - This one's got an agro feel to it. - Explain. - Like agriculture. - Mm, yeah. Mm, whoa, whoa, what's
happening with that one? - Something good, there's not a lot of sauerkraut on this one.
- I think that's the rye. I love a Reuben.
- And the rye and the meats are really
shining on that one. - I almost changed my name to Reuben. - [Link] You can still do it, it's not too late to Reuben yourself. - I backed out, look how thick that that is.
- That's all thick and pretty. Now let's get down and dirty.
- Wrap your lips around that. - Mm. I think I got a little bit
of a pickle in that one. - That's really good, I don't know if the pastrami
is as good on that one, and I feel like there's
not enough dressing on it. - If I just ate that
one, I would be ecstatic. - Good Lord, look at that.
- But I mean, this is a stacks and stacks of happiness.
- This is intimidating. - [Link] How do I even? Did you, were you able? - Mm-hmm. - Mm, mm, mm. - Man.
- There's something in here that I absolutely hate,
is it the sauerkraut? - These are all pretty good.
(Link grunting) - [Stevie] You're literally saying, "These are all pretty
good," as Link is barfing into his trashcan.
(staff laughing) - Did you taste anything nasty? Or nast.
- No, I didn't taste anything nasty, but.
- As the kids say, nast. - Man, these are all pretty good. - [Stevie] Three, two, one. - Boom. - It came down to these two. - Yeah.
- And something about the bread on this one's nice, but I wanted this to have more sauce, but. - And the sauce on that is bomb, nast bomb.
- Rhett, you have chosen the casual place, Phil's Deli & Grill, $14 sandwich.
- Hey, pay no mind to me, keeping it cas.
(price dinging) - [Stevie] Link, Link, Link, you've chosen our fast-food
restaurant, called Arby's. (staff laughing)
- (laughing) Hey, Arby's is bringing it.
- For 4.99. - Hey, this is a wake-up call to get your boop back in Arby's. - Go back to Arby's, you've been sleeping on 'em.
(price dinging) - [Stevie] That first one you're
taking a bite of right now is our sit-down place,
Du-par's Restaurant & Bakery, for 17.05.
- And who crapped in this one?
- And then the one at the very end is our
fine-dining Art's Delicatessen, for $24. - Sorry, Art's. (upbeat music) Ooh.
- These are spicy chicken sandwiches. - But not hot chicken sandwiches. - No, very different things. - Spicy chicken sandwiches. - You wanna fist bump me, is that what? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- You wanna fist bump before the sandwiches?
- As we're eating, the whole time. - I don't want to do that. (laughing) - Me neither.
(Stevie laughing) All right, this one's got a nice buttery bun.
- This one has very little chicken.
- And mine's got two slices of chicken. - Overlapping. - Strange. That's weird. - [Rhett] It doesn't taste bad. - It tastes almost grilled,
but then fried, it's weird. - [Rhett] It's getting better. - And what do we have to its left? We got a big honking daddy, this thing right here is wanting to come out
the backdoor, y'all. - I mean, that will happen eventually. - A lot more meat, this
is still thigh meat. I don't know what kinda meat that was. - I don't really like the loose slaw. It's super spicy, but not very flavorful. - You want your slaw on a patty? - No, I want it to be
kinda more incorporated. - It's really spicy, whoo. - [Rhett] This one looks like
they just grabbed a chicken. - [Link] Oh, no. - Oh, it's tenders.
- It's two chicken tenders. Mm, mm, mm, mm. - I like what's happening with this one. - Slaw. (coughing) Ooh, that's spicy. - This is a hot chicken
sandwich. (laughing) - Oh man, good gosh.
- I mean, that's hot chicken. - It had gotten down to my stomach before what was left in my mouth is sending heat radiation
through my forehead. - How you feel about the flavor? - I didn't like the slaw, it didn't balance it enough,
something, it's out of whack. (Link coughing) - I'm missing a comeback sauce. - (coughing) Ah. Oh my word. - Okay.
(Link grunting) - I got one more to eat. That's almost too spicy. - It's spicier than even I would want. - This is a long, thick. - [Rhett] This is super slaw forward. - White. Mm. - I've had a lot of chicken
sandwiches in my day. - And a lot of 'em were
better than any of these. - Was exactly what I was thinking? - I'm just hurting so bad,
I can't make a choice. All right, let me do it. - [Stevie] Three, two, one. - I like the way this one came together. - This is tough, I don't.
- It's just, it's a little too hot. - [Stevie] Okay, I'm gonna say. - All my taste buds were burned off by the time I got to this one, so my choice is not saying much. - [Stevie] You're making a very bold claim given what one of these sandwiches is, that your sandwich is
better than it, I'll say. - Mm. - [Stevie] Mainly because
Link chose our sit-down place, but our sit-down place is Howlin' Ray's, for 12 bucks.
(price dinging) Which some would say definitively is the best hot chicken sandwich. - Okay, I don't think my hot chicken is better than Howlin' Ray's. (staff laughing) I actually don't think that.
- Yeah. Is Howlin' Ray's hot chicken?
- And then, Rhett, you chose the casual place.
- I'll try it again. - Birdies WeHo, for 10 bucks. (price dinging)
- I've been doing so much casual things lately. - [Stevie] The first sandwich that you had was actually our fine-dining sandwich from Boneyard Bistro for $23, and you didn't seem to like it that much. And then the other one you were discussing is from Ralphs' hot bar for
5.81, so it makes sense that there wasn't a lot of flavor.
- I feel like I need to apologize to Ray, 'cause I know how good a
Howlin' Ray's sandwich is. - It's this one hit so hard, it knocked the taste buds off.
- This one messed us up, this one messed us up, this is on us, but it's really on this sandwich, which Rhett chose and I didn't, so make note of that right. - [Stevie] So if you were to make meals out of all these rounds that
we just went through today. - Yep.
- The lowest possible total was 26.88, the highest total was $86. Rhett, your perfect meal was 56.50.
(price dinging) And Link, your perfect meal
was actually pretty close, it was 52.94.
(price dinging) - Hey, we should go hang out, we'll spend about the same
amount of money on things. - Yep, yep, yep, yep. - When it comes to chicken, yeah.
- You wanna borrow $4? - No, you want to borrow $4. (staff laughing)
- Do you wanna give it to me? - And actually, you just
wanna borrow $2, yeah. - Just give me all your money. (Stevie and staff laughing) - Thanks for subscribing
and clicking that bell. - In the dark is the message that I'm sending you with this shirt. - Oh yeah, which is. - Hint, one of the fingers goes down, but don't tell 'em which. - Oh, oh, okay. - Thanks for subscribing
and clicking that bell. Did you say that?
- I did. - Well, then I'll say,
you know what time it is. - You know what time it is. - Hi, I'm Adera. - And I'm Jacob, we're in front of the West District courthouse of Oklahoma. - And I just became a US citizen. - [Both] And it's time to

Link *removes half the items from the sandwich
Also Link “WOW! That’s a dry sandwich”
Who plays the dancing cow?
Link was even more bitchy than usual
I can't believe how expensive that one tuna sandwich was.
I always wonder where they get the information for the Mores where they guess things that are most popular in each state. I have lived in Iowa for a long time and have never even heard of a "loose meat sandwich."
Link thinking he created the term “suspish” when we’ve already got the queen Bailey Sarian 😂
