Sure, you've had Thin Mints, but what about Thin Garlics? Let's talk about that. Good mythical morning. Okay, a lotta strong flavors exist, but if you think about it, garlic and mint, probably
two of the strongest, they've been battling it out for so long, I'm surprised Disney and
Sony aren't cage fighting over their trademarks. Ooh, okay. Well, let's get the jump on them. I hereby patent, and I don't know if that's exactly how it works. That is how it works. I'm gonna patent the Garlic Gremlin versus the Mint Man. Ooh. It's a breath battle to the death. We declared a patent right here. Ha. I don't think that's how it works. But today, that battle
is gonna be happening in our mouths, but here's the twist, everything is twisted, because these two superflavors are taking over each other's foods. It's time for Garlic Food Minty Versus Mint Food Garlicky, Which Will Taste Great and Which Will Make Us All Sicky? Sicky, sicky, sicky. I hereby patent garlicky. A few weeks ago, we posted a series of garlicified minty foods versus mintified garlicky food match-ups. Garlicky. And, garlicky? Mm-hm. And you voted on which you
thought we would like the most. Yeah, that's how it works. Make sure you follow us on Instagram if you wanna participate
in these type of polls. Now, the Mythical Kitcheneers
have made these foods, and we're gonna try them out, and then see if you were right. Yeah, now, last time, y'all won. You sneaky little mythical maniacs. But can you keep the streak alive? Okay, just like last time, you get a point for each round the majority of you guesses correctly. If you get three or more points, we're gonna give you a whole
bunch of unexpected reasons to smile in "Good Mythical More," but if you don't get three right, we're gonna pose with a
dirty mop on Instagram, and you'll all have to comment under it, "That's a mop, we're a flop." Okay. You'll feel horrible about yourself. Let's gar-lick these foods, and see if any are mint to be. Oh. Just can't imagine a world
without Girl Scout Cookies or garlic knots, and I
hope we never have to, but when we swap them, which dish do we wish never existed? We've got Thin Garlics,
Girl Scout Cookies, and mint knots. Yeah, I mean, it's pretty straightforward. With the mint knots. Where do you wanna start? You wanna go dessert second? But there's garlic in there. Is it dessert? But it's still chocolate. I'm scared of everything
with garlic in it. Let's do that second. Nicole, do you have a
favorite between these two/ Just yes or no. I can't do that. Yeah. I just wanna know if you have a favorite.
That's not fair. I do. Now, you've infused mint into this, you've still got the
saltiness and the knottiness. Lots of knottiness. Ooh, it's so knotty. But the mint is. It's not that far off. It's subtle. You didn't go so hard that you were trying
to smush our experience in a certain direction, right? Correct, I'm trying to make this as enjoyable as I can for you guys. Okay, all right.
Okay. That's good to know, as I
reach for the Thin Garlics. 'Cause that's still buttery and salty. Yeah, you still get the butter. And so the mint, it
kinda works in that zone. Okay. How hard'd you go with these? Oh, gosh, I can just smell the garlic. Well, hold on now. Smell it. Smell of that. I've got one. Well, smell of it. I'm tasting it, which
is making me smell it, and it's not nearly as bad as I thought it was gonna be. This works. This is definitely better. That's harsh, so this is what we're voting for. It's way better than I
thought it was gonna be. If I were you, would I have voted for what I just voted for? 59%. I don't know. Of the mythical beasts thought you would like mint knots better. Okay.
Yeah. All right, yeah. Neither of them are as good
as the original form, though. Okay, this battle shines a light on the unsung heroes of a meal, the drink and the side dish. We've taken a refreshing beverage, packed it full of what makes
your breath not so refreshing. This is garlic lemonade. Ooh. And then, everybody's
favorite starchy starlet, mint mashed potatoes. Is that right? Probably should follow
up with the drink, right? Sure. I'm not gonna get a mint leaf. Well, there looks to be,
like, mint leaf shards. It's a chiffonade. A ship-onade.
It's a chiffonade. I was gonna say that before you said it.
A chiffonade? Yes. What is that? It's when you roll up the
leaves really tightly, and then you take a knife, and you slice it super, super thin so they look like ribbons. Yeah, a chiffonade. That's weird, but not bad at all. It's not bad. It doesn't overpower it. Mint is not quite as overpowering. It's always a little bit refreshing. Compared to garlic. It's always a little bit refreshing. Okay, this, on the other hand. You can't think about what's gonna happen to your breath later on. If you just think about the taste, lemon and garlic together
is something that- That's weird. Is in all kinds of dishes. Like, putting garlic and
lemon together is, like, there's whole cuisines that are, like, based on that.
You talking about, like, noodles? Lemon chicken. Oh. Look, the cho-ffinade lady
is nodding at me over there. She knows what's up.
It's chiffonade. It's chiffonade? Chiffonade, yeah. Chiffonade.
Ship-onade? You're nodding, that's what matters. The thing that I'm discovering is that lemon is quite a
strong flavor in and of itself, so you're getting- It balances with the garlic.
You're getting this garlic first, and
then you get the lemon from then on out, which surprises me. To me, you've done
something to mashed potatoes to make them worse, and I wish that they didn't have mint in them. You created a new drink with this. I agree. This is really surprising me because, at first, it's like, ooh, then it's like lemon,
then you're ready for it, and you're enjoying it,
and you call it something? Like, you call it. Lemon chicken water. We'll work on that. I was gonna go with ch- Cho-ffinade. Cho-ffinade hot top off my take. Chiffonade water. Did you predict this? 69% of the mythical beasts thought you would like the spearmint
mashed potatoes better. I got it, I was right, and you're wrong. See, that's why we have
to actually taste them. Yeah, I mean, it didn't sound
like it was gonna be good. You know, it's like, if you could only taste Instagram. Nicole, correct me if I'm wrong, but on the podcast that you do with Josh that's called "A Hot Dog is a Sandwich." "A Hot Dog is a Sandwich."
Sometimes, you solicit user food opinions that you then debate, right? We sure do, they're called Opinions
are Like Casseroles. Ah, and is that how
people would maybe, like, make their opinion known? Like, #opinionsarelikecasseroles
on Twitter? Exactly like that. Exactly like that?
Yeah, that's crazy. Are you telling me people can use #opinionsarelikecasseroles, and then they could be the subject of conversation in your podcast
"A Hot Dog is a Sandwich?" Yeah, #opinioncasserole. Oh.
Yeah. That's not what we thought it was. Thought it was opinions
are like casseroles. Oh, well, I'm sorry, but that's incorrect. You don't know the
hashtags for your own show. Yeah, I do. Stevie, what's the right hashtag? Stevie doesn't know either. Don't bring me into this. The correct hashtag is
on the screen right now. We don't know our hashtags
for our show either. Go to youtube.com/mythicalkitchen, and you can check out all the things that are happening over there
on the Mythical Kitchen. All right, unlike the try
hard Cheesecake Factory, some food chains do not
need a novel of a menu because they dominate with the one thing that they're known for. Like, for Starbucks, it's coffee, and for Buffalo Wild
Wings, it's divorced dads. Yep, right. This is the Starbucks iced
garlic white chocolate mocha, and this is the peppermint
Parmesan Buffalo Wild Wings. Oh, it's pretty. Oh, yeah, it's like it's Christmastime. Oh, this could be a
holiday favorite, maybe, for later in the year.
You wanna start here, and then go there? That's what we did last time. We had a good garlic drink
experience last round. You going for the flat? And so am I, we're flat boys. Flat boys, and now, I gotta really make it happen. Dink, dink. Dink it, and sink it. Hm, the Parmesan and the peppermint are mixing in some way. I thought that the peppermint kinda hit, and then went away. Parma-mint, Parma-mint. But it is subtle, you know. Mint is much more subtle than I ever thought it was. You learn something every day. I mean, these are like crushed
peppermints, too, right? Yeah, peppermint. So it really has a sweetness to it that, again, you can have a sweetness in lots of different wing flavors, and that works, and then, to juxtapose it with the Parm. But if you had a bunch of wings on a table.
Is a new thing. And you had other flavors
that are available at Buffalo Wild Wings, would you go back to this
one over and over again? I might order it out of,
just to experience something. I'd order it if it was on the picture as I was walking in, because
I'm a sucker for that. If I didn't know what it was, and I just picked it up and
ate it, I would like it, but I don't think I would order it. So, I do like it. Whoa. You ever been at a place like a Starbucks, and you got a drink, and then you look at the
person who gave it to you, and you say, did I do
something to make them mad, and they put something in my drink? That's what this makes me think about. Like, something's in this drink, and I wouldn't be able
to tell you what it was, 'cause I would never
think, oh, it's garlic. It's more like phlegm, is
that what you're saying? He spit in it. Like, you make him mad,
so he goes to the back, he tells the barista, and
the barista's just like and it just drips along in it? That happens. Hey, listen, studies show that one out of every three drinks at a restaurant has been spit in it. Has been spit in it. First of all, that's not true, second of all, it's not
grammatically correct. So don't even listen to him. Has spit in it, has a little spit in it, just from people talking. It's actually not that bad, it's just a little bit off, and I don't know how to reconcile it. It hasn't created a new experience. This has got, like, not a bad taste, it's kinda subtle, and
it's got a holiday theme. Yep, that's one way to do it. 76% of the mythical beasts thought that you would like the peppermint Parmesan
Buffalo Wild Wings better. All right, you're back
on your game, keep it up. Nothing says heading to
grandma's for the holidays like peppermint bark and biscuits, but what happens when grandma's taste buds ain't like they used to be, and she swip-swapping flavors faster than she can down a bottle of wine? You know grandma. Grandma. For the final matchup, we've got garlic bark Clif Bars, and cheddar peppermint biscuits. Now, this comes from the fact that a peppermint bark
Clif Bar is a thing, okay? So that's how we got the
peppermint over to the biscuits. Okay, and there is no garlic protein bar that I've ever seen until now. How could a protein bar of any flavor, much less a garlic-flavored protein bar, beat biscuits of any other flavor? You have to get this one right in order to not have to embarrass yourself in the caption under a mop, and I have to believe that
you're gonna pull this off, but, hey, we've been surprised before. We gotta give it a chance. Give garlic a chance. Garlicky Clif Bar. You know, you're out there on the trail, or you're climbing the
side of a rock face, and sometimes, you want
something a little heartier, you want something a little more pungent. Something savory. Yeah, you want something- It's not bad. You're out there all alone
on a rope or something, you can breathe anything you want, you can have the stink
breath, no one cares. And, if you get separated from your group, they can follow your breath to find you. Help. Help.
I can't hear him, but I can smell him. It's, um, not great.
Not great. Let's just, let's be real honest here. This is very purdy, though. So, there's mint on top. Is there mint inside? Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's been cho-ffi-naded. Woo. Whoa, that smells good. Cho-ffi-no you didn't. It almost has a rosemary quality to it. Mm. A little bit. Yeah, that's right.
You know what I'm saying? Uh-huh, 'cause I was about to say, you do not screw with this original dish. It's definitely not better than it would've been without the mint. We haven't made a better dish. But Christmastime rolls around. Yeah, I put some peppermint in there. Y'all enjoy it. You know, it just kinda lets you know that it's not different
enough that you hate it. You'll keep eating it, and then you'll be glad when it goes away come February. You ever have your mom, like, just change a recipe all of a sudden? Ha. Like, she's making something
exactly the same way? My mom is my mom. Once we do things, we
keep doing those things. I know y'all's mama has been like, you went home, and she changed
the recipe on something. Everybody's like. I know that there's people
in this room right now whose mothers. Can I get an amen if your mama has done that?
Have changed the recipe. I didn't say a hand, a said a amen. Amen. Michaela gave you an amen. I can't give you an amen
on that one, I'm sorry. But I can give you a 58% of
the mythical beasts thought that you would like the cheddar
peppermint biscuits better. Yeah, okay, congratulations. You've done it, you've won
all of the reasons to smile. Well, and you basically
predicted every single round that we would like the
mint more than the garlic, and we only threw you a
curveball in one round. Mm-hm. But I gotta say, you were right most of the time, because garlic is a force
to be reckoned with, but mint, as we have learned today, it's subtle, it's subtle. Subtler than you think, for subscribing and clicking that bell. You know what time it is. Bonjour, Rhett and Link, it's Amanda, Nick, and Whinny from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. We just did our own knockoff
knock out snack edition to celebrate our one-year
anniversary, and. It's time to spin the
Wheel of Mythicality. All right. Look at that doggy. Click the top link to find out which toppings go best
with garlic ice cream in "Good Mythical More." And to find out where the Wheel of
Mythicality's gonna land. Ketchup is a smoothie. Yeah, I put ice in my cereal, so what? That makes no sense. A hotdog is a sandwich. A hotdog is a sandwich. What?
Love Rhett & Link! Thanks for sharing.
I love garlic, coffee, mint and wings, I would attempt these combinations
I saw this today and I was like oh my people! Not that I know them but you know.. Ottawa pride.
I love GMM!
