WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.040
What's up, guys? It's Jake Bell here, the producer for ShortCircuit.

00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.640
We have a lot of food left over from the Influencer Foods video with Linus,

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:09.840
and we should get the rest of the team to try it out and share their thoughts as well.

00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:12.880
There's some good stuff here, but remember, this is not ShortCircuit.

00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:22.080
So, you are tasting the Beastable Bars that didn't have a flavor that was previous or new.

00:00:22.080 --> 00:00:26.800
What do we got here? First one is Chocolate Sea Salt. I can read. That sounds very good to me.

00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:31.280
Almond. Also good. Original. I guess I'll start with that.

00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:35.600
So, my ranking system is going to be five is not enjoyable.

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:41.840
Anything greater than five is going to be an enjoyable experience. Ten is going to be like, holy cow, I'm quitting my job and being a full-time chocolate eater.

00:00:44.080 --> 00:00:47.360
It smells like it's a slightly dark chocolate. Like, what percent cocoa is this?

00:00:50.400 --> 00:00:54.400
So, the original, I would say, is pretty mid. It has that kind of like inexpensive

00:00:54.480 --> 00:00:59.520
children's Easter candy kind of flavor and texture. I'm a chunky kind of guy, so

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.680
let's see. Let's see what's going on. I think I'm going to upgrade to sea salt because then I'm

00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:09.760
like staying on same texture but new taste. It smells like the sea.

00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:17.040
There are some little salt chunks in here. This is better. Better than that one?

00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:19.600
Yeah, definitely. I'm like, come on, salted. Hell yeah.

00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:23.440
So, these ones had more cocoa and then he, because I watched the other video, Linus,

00:01:23.440 --> 00:01:27.920
was saying he moved it to being more like normal American white chocolate or milk chocolate.

00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:33.360
So, these were the good ones before, hey? Oh yeah, I can just see. Look at the back of that.

00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:38.080
Remember that crunch bar? It's like a blue wrapper and big red text, a crunch, or is it crunchy?

00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.160
If this was salted, it'd be dope. But yeah, there's like little shards of...

00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:50.880
shards. Little shards of almond in here are nice. Definitely my favorite one.

00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:55.280
Which one's the worst one though, the three? Original. Original's the five.

00:01:57.440 --> 00:02:00.800
Sea salt's the six. And this is like, actually buy it with your own money.

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:07.520
Seven. Seven sell it. I still don't think I'd be like, that's my brand. Get out of the way, other

00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:12.080
chocolates. Every time my four-year-old sees a QR code, she goes, oh, it has internet.

00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:17.680
Hello, my name is Hatina. If you haven't seen me before, I'm the raw material

00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:21.920
product developer here at Creator Warehouse, or some people like to just call me the material girl,

00:02:21.920 --> 00:02:29.920
so. I'm Sarah, I'm a graphic designer over at Creator Warehouse, and occasional host.

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:35.920
Today we're trying gamer sups. Guacamole gamer fart. It has a dinosaur on it, though.

00:02:36.480 --> 00:02:39.680
We have to do this so good. We got some wafts. It smells good.

00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:46.560
Damn. No. No. No, definitely not. It kind of smells like those like five-cent candies a little bit.

00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:50.960
Yeah. A little watermelon-like. Yeah. Yeah, it's more like sugary.

00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:56.800
This is my breakfast, by the way. Yeah, I'm usually like a espresso in the morning,

00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:00.240
and then two or three cups of coffee a day. Sometimes I'll throw it in with a Red Bull.

00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:05.840
Yeah, at Creator Warehouse, where energy drink fiends. Let's top. Cheers.

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:17.680
It really is. That's not bad. I would drink this. There's no guacamole.

00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.960
No guacamole. And no farts. No farts. Not like I would know what farts.

00:03:22.480 --> 00:03:28.400
I would give it like a seven or an eight? 7.5? Oh, really? I would give it a five.

00:03:28.480 --> 00:03:32.640
Really? Yeah. I don't know. It just kind of, there wasn't a lot of like taste to it.

00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:37.200
Okay, what's next? Ooh. Blueberry. Well, it's just blue, actually.

00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:42.320
Smells like blue. It definitely smells like blue. Yeah, but like not blueberry. It just,

00:03:42.320 --> 00:03:44.720
it really does just smell like blue. Yeah, it smells like blue.

00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:55.440
It's a little plasticky. It's very synthetic. It's very synthetic tasting.

00:03:55.440 --> 00:04:00.800
She knows some of that. Lemonade. Okay. I feel like it's hard to

00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.160
mess up a lemonade flavor. Yeah. Okay, you can definitely smell the lemon.

00:04:04.160 --> 00:04:05.200
Smells like lemonade.

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:13.840
Tastes like a watered down lemonade. Yeah. Which isn't a bad thing. No.

00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.920
If you need your caffeine in the morning or in the afternoon or in the evening. I feel like with

00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:23.360
ice, it would be not have bad. Good little summer drink? Yeah. It'd be like, you know, just mellow.

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.120
What is it better than this one? I kind of like this one a little bit more.

00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:33.600
Right. It deserves the 7.5 in comparison to these. Yeah. Yeah. I would say when comparing it,

00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:36.880
I would say that this one is probably in the middle. It's definitely better than the blue.

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:43.760
Yeah. But I think that the Russian gamers. Yeah. It's really the name or the Russian badger.

00:04:43.760 --> 00:04:46.640
Oh, now we get anime girl thigh.

00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:51.760
All of the leaves. And you got to have the thigh high socks. I mean,

00:04:51.760 --> 00:04:56.320
is it really an anime girl thigh without the thigh high socks? True. Very true.

00:04:56.320 --> 00:05:00.880
How are we going to take a shot out of this? This smells like like orange green circle.

00:05:00.880 --> 00:05:05.520
Oh my gosh. It smells good. I love anime girl thighs.

00:05:06.320 --> 00:05:11.120
Don't rush us.

00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:23.280
I really like that one. That one's good. It is good. There's like a slight aftertaste.

00:05:23.280 --> 00:05:28.160
The vanilla. I think it's the vanilla because the vanilla has that like chemically like

00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:33.120
something kind of taste with the orange. Yeah. It's not too tart, but it's that vanilla.

00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:38.000
It's very much like not bad. Who would have thought anime girl thigh would reign supreme?

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:44.400
Yeah. I would give it like a also a 7.5 maybe, but just like a little bit better.

00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:50.160
7.75. I like that. I tend to like the fruit ones a little bit more because I find that you can't

00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:55.280
really like, I mean, the citric acid in there and everything like that is very like standard.

00:05:55.280 --> 00:05:59.840
You can't really do better or worse. Whereas I think with a lot of other ones,

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:03.680
once you experiment a little bit more, it can get a little bit like dodgy. Yeah.

00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:08.160
So I think that that's why I probably think they pretty much got it. Yeah.

00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:12.640
Well, Lies actually read the anime thigh the sixth. Really? Really? Huh.

00:06:13.440 --> 00:06:18.560
Hi, I'm Arianna. I'm the talent and culture supervisor here at Linus Media Group and we're

00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.520
going to be trying some feastables. These are the ones where he's had in his first version of

00:06:23.520 --> 00:06:28.240
chocolate bars. These ones? Yes. And then he's upgraded them. The same flavors, but different.

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:36.560
Pure blue bars aren't it? This is milk crunch. So this one, right? Yeah. So maybe we'll go with this

00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:42.080
first. Do you guys like chocolate? I love chocolate. I like chocolate too, but I would say I much

00:06:42.080 --> 00:06:47.280
prefer like European chocolate. I don't know, maybe that's a bad thing to say, but like some American

00:06:47.280 --> 00:06:52.640
chocolates, I'm probably going to get like get flack in the comments for this. This smell,

00:06:52.640 --> 00:07:00.320
they definitely are. Yeah. Very much of a cacao chocolate kind of smell. Wow, you're quite the

00:07:00.320 --> 00:07:04.640
chocolate kind of smell. No, I'm not. Cheers. Cheers.

00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:13.440
Tastes very much like a crunch bar to me. Don't really like it. I think because it tastes like

00:07:13.440 --> 00:07:18.720
dark chocolate, I'm not a fan of dark chocolate. And then I think that crunch is like quinoa, right?

00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.240
Puffed rice. Puffed rice. I don't mind. I'm going to try this one.

00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:29.520
Oh, this is a very different taste to it. This is actually milk chocolate. This is dark chocolate.

00:07:29.520 --> 00:07:35.040
They're lying. This one has a very much like a, I don't want to say like a cheap like candy

00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:40.240
dark like chocolate taste, where this is a little bit warm. This is way more rich. This definitely

00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:48.320
outperforms the old version. I'm like half chewing. No, it's good. I think maybe I'll give it a seven.

00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:53.920
Yeah, I would say definitely like a seven and then maybe a five for this, for the old version.

00:07:53.920 --> 00:08:00.080
I would give that a three. The next one is called D's nuts. They got sued, so they had to change

00:08:00.080 --> 00:08:07.280
their naming. For what? A by company named D's. This has definitely seen better days.

00:08:11.200 --> 00:08:16.160
Also, I don't know why they kind of taste bitter. Regular cane sugar. We're going to cook a butter.

00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:23.440
Organic milk. Vanilla powder. There's definitely an aftertaste to it. It's not like with a nice

00:08:23.440 --> 00:08:26.800
like melty chocolate. It's usually just like, oh, this is great. It's just kind of like,

00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:30.800
you have one piece and you're like, yeah, I'm good. Yeah, this one, I'm surprised it doesn't,

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:36.400
it doesn't really have a peanut butter kind of taste. I adore Reese's peanut butter cup. Yeah,

00:08:36.400 --> 00:08:43.200
so I was surprised that it didn't have that much peanut butter. Yeah, this is a much better. Yeah,

00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:49.760
the new one is probably a seven. The old one I give up. Three. I was going to go with an eight,

00:08:49.760 --> 00:08:54.960
just because I like peanut butter stuff. I almost think this is worse than this one.

00:08:54.960 --> 00:09:00.080
So this is going to be a two and a half for me. Yeah. All right. Yeah, no, I really like the fact

00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:04.000
that they kind of like compartmentalized it in a way that you can break it and share it versus

00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:10.800
the old one. It's like, what am I supposed to do? Eat the whole bar? Yeah, I think so. Okay.

00:09:11.680 --> 00:09:16.880
I like this, but only because I actually do like dark chocolate. I was going to say,

00:09:16.880 --> 00:09:22.160
I don't like this because it's very much like dark chocolate. Definitely tastes healthier.

00:09:22.160 --> 00:09:24.880
But then they say it's milk chocolate. So I'm just like, I don't.

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:29.440
It really, that one definitely has a dark chocolate taste to it. Like it tastes like

00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:32.320
70% cacao. I'd say this is false advertising.

00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:39.840
Oh yeah, between these. So I think it's night and day.

00:09:40.880 --> 00:09:45.680
Let's see. They knew this is not milk chocolate. That's why these ones taste so much more different.

00:09:46.400 --> 00:09:54.160
For milk chocolate, I've had better. So I'll go with like a six. I wouldn't pick it over other

00:09:54.160 --> 00:09:59.680
chocolates. Yeah, I would say six, six and a half. Like I feel like it'd be great for s'mores.

00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:04.480
It'd be a great like catfire s'mores chocolate because it kind of reminds me of Hershey's.

00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:08.320
It kind of reminds me of like a Kindred photo too. Oh yes. You remember the show?

00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:14.240
Yes, yes, yes. It kind of reminds me of that too. Like Easter chocolate. Yeah, that's a good way to

00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:20.000
describe it. Easter chocolate. I'd give it a five, but only because I like dark chocolate.

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:25.280
And I'm basing it on saying that it's very similar to dark chocolate and not like milk chocolate.

00:10:25.280 --> 00:10:29.120
So I know that you're probably going to rate it like a two or something. I'll give it a three

00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:35.520
because I don't think it's as bad as the previous one. Yeah, like the the D's nuts of the last one,

00:10:35.520 --> 00:10:41.280
like that had no peanut butter. That was like such a weird flavor. Hello, I'm Jamie. I work in the

00:10:41.280 --> 00:10:50.640
warehouse at Linus Media Group. Hi, Jamie. Hi. So you got here Joy Wright from, I don't know,

00:10:52.160 --> 00:10:56.320
this isn't his company. Somebody else started it and then his name is just

00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:02.800
on the packaging. Exactly. Let's choose the strawberry. My favorite flavor,

00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:09.120
strawberry. Oh, this thing didn't tear very good. This is already not going to go. Take a point off.

00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:19.520
Yeah. It's so dirty. The presentation is a two out of 10. Oh, we have different ideas of what a

00:11:19.520 --> 00:11:25.280
good presentation is. Oh god, it's like a fruit by the foot. Oh boy. It's like those bubble gums

00:11:25.280 --> 00:11:29.760
that come in that roll. They should sell it like that. Do you still make those? Here.

00:11:32.160 --> 00:11:36.640
It tastes awful. Damn, he's eating it first. You don't have to wait. Yeah, you have to wait.

00:11:37.920 --> 00:11:38.720
Mazel tov.

00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:48.560
Should we? Jamie, Jamie doesn't like it. You know when you open a jar of jam

00:11:49.520 --> 00:11:54.880
and then some of it dries out around like the rim? Yeah. It tastes like the rim jam.

00:11:55.680 --> 00:12:02.640
The rim jam. The citric acid really hits in the back of my throat. It's like a three and a half.

00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:09.920
A 12 out of 13 is what you said? Three and a half. Oh, I was very high. Yeah, I give it a four out of

00:12:09.920 --> 00:12:21.280
10, I think, or zero sour strip clumps out of one. Yeah. They can't really imitate like

00:12:21.360 --> 00:12:26.800
sour blue raspberry dried jam. So I'm interested to see what's going to happen here. It's less

00:12:26.800 --> 00:12:33.040
clumped together. That's good. I really want to take a bite out of it. Look at the packaging.

00:12:33.920 --> 00:12:38.480
It's a completely different color. All right. Cheers. Oh, you're already taking a bite.

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:48.320
It tastes the same. Yeah. Yeah. This doesn't actually have strawberry in it.

00:12:48.400 --> 00:12:54.880
It's black currant. Black currant is like the flavor. And then with this one, blueberry is the

00:12:54.880 --> 00:13:01.040
flavor. So this doesn't have strawberry in it. And this doesn't have blue raspberries in it, so.

00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:11.600
Two thumbs down. It doesn't quite taste like as much like rim jam as the strawberry. It's a slight

00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:16.800
difference, but nothing to like make it seem like they're actually different flavors. Okay,

00:13:16.800 --> 00:13:22.960
it's not sour enough. It's not raspberry enough. It's worse, honestly. Yeah. Between the two,

00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:31.120
I think it is worse. It tastes like dried out licorice. Minus one strip clump out of one strip

00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:36.240
clump. This is worse. This is like a two. The aftertaste just keeps getting worse too. Can you tell?

00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:41.040
I actually like this one slightly better than that one. Really? Yeah. You prefer the blueberry

00:13:41.040 --> 00:13:47.360
flavor over the black currant flavor. Yeah. What did I rate the last one? I can't remember. Do

00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:57.520
one point higher than the last one. Editor. Hey, I'm Nolan. Hey, I'm Nolan. I'm a product coordinator

00:13:57.520 --> 00:14:03.200
in the procurement team. And these are Pokimane's cookies. These are actually all the same? Yeah,

00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:07.200
all the same. Why are they different colors? That's what I said. Do you know age about Pokimane?

00:14:07.280 --> 00:14:10.880
She's a Twitch streamer, is she not? Yeah, these are controversial cookies.

00:14:10.880 --> 00:14:15.360
She's the one that called the guy broke. Yeah, that's right. They're really expensive.

00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:23.280
Four bags. That's seven dollars a bag. I know. I know math is hard. Like if you're a broke boy,

00:14:23.280 --> 00:14:31.840
just say so. That's a cookie. It tastes like a crushed up Oreo. They're a little sandy. The second one

00:14:31.920 --> 00:14:36.640
I ate has like a distinct oil flavor to it. It's like your mom made Oreos for your

00:14:36.640 --> 00:14:42.640
friends. We have Oreos at home. Do you remember when McDonald's used to sell cookies? Like those

00:14:42.640 --> 00:14:49.440
little ones that were shaped like grimaces and all that? What? No. You're old. Yeah. Six or seven.

00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:54.640
Damn, six or seven. Yeah, because I would just rather have Oreos and Oreos are cheaper anyways.

00:14:54.640 --> 00:15:00.240
It's like a six, but on a 13 scale, so it's a fail. Alliance where you get a five at them.

00:15:00.640 --> 00:15:04.880
Yeah, that's about right. They're like a passing grade, but not a good grade.

00:15:04.880 --> 00:15:09.520
Hey, it's me, Bell again, not from the intro, but in the video. They said it was impossible.

00:15:09.520 --> 00:15:14.080
We got gamer drinks, aka Kim made and Red Bull. I don't think either of these are

00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:18.160
Kim K is a gamer. One of the most popular mobile games of all time is Kim Kardashian's like

00:15:18.160 --> 00:15:23.120
fashion. Wait, really? Yeah, I didn't know that. I actually unironically like these. I already know.

00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:27.920
I didn't know this was a product at all. So this is my first time hearing about it or trying it.

00:15:28.800 --> 00:15:34.400
It's like a white claw without the alcohol. It actually is. And I love white

00:15:34.400 --> 00:15:37.520
claw because I'm very much like that. It's sweeter. It's sweeter than a white claw.

00:15:37.520 --> 00:15:42.160
Oh yeah, a little bit. What flavor is this? Kim. Yeah, I know. I don't know what Kim tastes like.

00:15:42.160 --> 00:15:48.000
It tastes like Kim made. Would you rate it at one time? Give me a hand. You both rate it the same time.

00:15:49.280 --> 00:15:51.920
No liner in sync. We have close nicknames for each other.

00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:56.640
It's got 200 milligrams of caffeine, so I can't drink anymore because I've already had a can,

00:15:56.640 --> 00:16:00.160
but this is very, very good. I would give this like eight and a half. I think I'm right there

00:16:00.160 --> 00:16:08.960
with you. I think I would give this an eight. Yeah, this is pretty good. This is tasty. Lion's actually rated it a little differently. Rate it at seven until the sucre, which I don't

00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:14.720
know what that meant. It literally doesn't say a flavor on here. I don't know. Well, it does. Kim

00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:21.680
made. Kim made is not a flavor. Damn, this is good for you. 110% of all the vitamins.

00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:27.840
All right, we got David now. David's watching. Someone who drinks a lot of artificial drinks,

00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:33.120
it is fine. Oh, just fine. What would you rate it? Seven. Okay, you're kind of near us. We give it

00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:38.320
eight and a half. Yeah, it's good. You're the same as Linus. Karuba elderflower, Red Bull. What is

00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:43.600
Karuba? It's banana passion fruit, not banana and passion fruit. Are you sponsored by Red Bull?

00:16:44.880 --> 00:16:48.400
Not banana and passion fruit. It's a different thing called the banana passion fruit. All right,

00:16:48.400 --> 00:16:53.520
David's the first. Oh, it's foaming. It's steaming. Yeah, it's a waft. Is this one sugar-free?

00:16:53.520 --> 00:17:00.880
No. No, sugar-full, actually. Extra sugar. It doesn't taste like there's sugar in it. It tastes

00:17:00.880 --> 00:17:05.920
like a dried drink. I haven't had that before. It's a little like

00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:13.200
apple-y, almost. Yeah, it doesn't. I would never describe it as banana-y. Well, I don't know what

00:17:13.280 --> 00:17:19.520
Karuba tastes like. I would not choose this one. We have a Red Bull stock that is like a bunch of

00:17:19.520 --> 00:17:23.600
flavors. This would not be the one I would ever reach to. All right, so that I would give like a

00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:28.080
four. Oh, yeah, right. I'm not a big fan. Oh, wow, you're really? Yeah, I like Red Bull wafts. Not

00:17:28.080 --> 00:17:32.160
quite that much. Have you seen my empty upgrade? My fridge is still full of Red Bulls. Well, that

00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:37.840
means you can't love it that much. You haven't been drinking it. Oh. That should be an empty fridge.

00:17:37.840 --> 00:17:42.800
I'd give it a 5.5. Damn, you guys are, I'm thinking like six and a half. Like, it's passing.

00:17:42.800 --> 00:17:47.200
I don't like that one. Go ahead. Don't like that one. It tastes like those little,

00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:53.760
like a Mike and Ike almost, like a licoricean Mike and Ike. Oh, wow. I could see someone

00:17:54.480 --> 00:18:00.320
loving this. It is not I. I was going to say, it might be the consensus here. I'd give it like a

00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:05.600
four. I do. I don't like, I would not drink that again. I'd give that like a three. I give it a

00:18:05.600 --> 00:18:10.880
six. I like it better than the banana. I like it better than one. The Kim made it is by far the

00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:13.760
my favorite. And it's the least amount of calories. Also, you guys look

00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:21.120
Oh yeah, rocks is like a foot taller than me. Hello, Flo Plain. My name is Alexander Clark.

00:18:21.120 --> 00:18:25.920
I was told to introduce myself here. So I did. Yeah, my name's Ploof. I was told the same thing.

00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:31.680
Hello. What are you drinking? Nothing yet. Well, you guys are drinking some coffee and some tea and

00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:37.840
this one segment title is called coffee or tea. First, right off the bat, I see three really big

00:18:37.840 --> 00:18:42.080
problems with this coffee. For one, it's decaf. Oh, what the fuck? Yeah.

00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:51.360
He ruined it for everyone. There can be good decaf coffees, though, which is not why I'm concerned.

00:18:51.360 --> 00:18:57.040
Also, it is ground, never buy ground coffee. This right here does seem like it's vacuum sealed.

00:18:57.040 --> 00:19:01.600
So it might be good for like a day. It's going to oxidize in three or four days. It's going to

00:19:01.600 --> 00:19:06.800
taste like crap. Never buy yourself ground coffee. Third problem, I don't see any roast date. This

00:19:06.800 --> 00:19:12.080
stuff we got from the internet, we don't know when it was roasted and coffee kind of goes bad

00:19:12.080 --> 00:19:18.320
after like a month. I buy all of my coffee local. I make sure that it's been roasted within the last

00:19:18.320 --> 00:19:22.240
couple of weeks and that's how you can know that you have really good cups of coffee. So

00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:29.920
I expect this to be mid at best. Actually, fourth problem, it says it's a medium dark blend.

00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:35.200
You get less caffeine and it just tastes like dirt. Didn't look up the website.

00:19:35.280 --> 00:19:39.920
Nah. I like a good dark roast. A light roast is definitely better. The awesome coffee club

00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:44.480
does have a light roast, so props there guys. This might be a much better experience if we

00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:50.160
had coffee that was not decaf, not ground and the roast that I like. But we're going to make some

00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:54.880
coffee anyway. While I do enjoy a really nice cup of coffee, I spent a lot of time, you know,

00:19:54.880 --> 00:20:00.160
trying to get my French press just perfect. I'll go to whatever and drink it and it's fine. I'll

00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.920
drink diner coffee and be like, yeah, this is good enough. The first thing we need to do is get the

00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:09.200
papery taste out of the paper. That's right. I just want to say this is also Alex's own personal

00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:14.320
coffee set. Yeah, I brought this today. How does that look? I mean, that's a lot of coffee.

00:20:14.320 --> 00:20:17.920
Yeah, that's probably about where we want. I look a heavy load.

00:20:19.280 --> 00:20:24.160
The first thing you want to do is bloom your coffee. Oh, yeah. Basically, what we're doing

00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:30.160
is the coffee grounds, once they absorb a little bit of water, they become much more able to,

00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:35.760
you know, get the rest of their stuff out. This is not blooming very well, which means it's

00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:40.880
probably not particularly fresh. Yeah, you usually see like a lighter color come to the

00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:44.880
top, right? Like a foam? Yeah, kind of like this. Yeah, there's a bit of foamy foam there,

00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:50.640
but not a lot of foam. This is also a slightly too fine of a grind for a pour over, which is

00:20:51.520 --> 00:20:56.320
why you should never buy ground coffee. Reason, I don't know. This right here would be perfectly

00:20:56.480 --> 00:21:01.600
good coffee for weekdays. This I would not consider a weekend coffee. That's a good way to

00:21:01.600 --> 00:21:06.400
put it. That's a really good way to put it. I'm not the biggest tea guy. I do like a good green

00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:11.120
tea. I don't know. Oh, this is black tea. Well, black tea is okay too, and a good chai, but chai

00:21:11.120 --> 00:21:16.400
just means tea. You know what it looks like? I like those. It looks like wisdoms. Yeah, totally

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:21.520
nice coffee. Yeah, gamer tea. That's how you know they're enticing the gamers. Is this from that

00:21:21.600 --> 00:21:26.720
gamer subs company? Yeah. Oh my god, I look at their website, and I think that I lost like four

00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:36.320
or five IQ points. Also, first thing that is just a clear red flag is that it says dietary supplement.

00:21:36.320 --> 00:21:43.040
Also says on the side that it was not tested by the FDA. So dietary supplements versus actual food

00:21:43.040 --> 00:21:48.480
have completely different testing. And so this right here can have basically whatever in it.

00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.240
I bet if we run this through California, it would have like a ton of warning labels all over it,

00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:57.120
like not available in California. I also love how there's a big anime girl on the back drinking

00:21:57.120 --> 00:22:03.360
her sweet, sweet gamer tea. It's not a very big bag. You can contain energy in a small packet.

00:22:03.360 --> 00:22:10.880
A pro tip, if you come in here and you flip her around like that, your tea bag doesn't get lost.

00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:16.640
That's actually really, I can't believe I've never thought of that once in my life.

00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:20.320
Pour me up. No, I'll use this little one. What a great shot. I like it strong.

00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:26.960
The coffee cup is covering it. How long is this supposed to steep for? Like a minute?

00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:32.960
Three to five minutes. 200 degrees Fahrenheit or 93 C. Yeah, that's a funny thing. A lot of people

00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:37.200
boil their water and then immediately put it in. When you boil your water for coffee or for tea,

00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:40.240
you should always let it cool down a few degrees first because you don't want to scald anything.

00:22:40.560 --> 00:22:50.080
It tastes okay. Yeah. Yeah. It's not particularly like stand out in any way.

00:22:50.720 --> 00:22:54.320
Yeah, this is the most tea tasting tea I've had in a real long time.

00:22:54.320 --> 00:22:59.440
Right. Isn't that a good thing? No. Because I want it to actually taste like a type of tea.

00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:03.760
Like this, honestly, maybe it just hasn't steeped long enough, but I wouldn't have even

00:23:03.760 --> 00:23:09.680
told you if it was green tea or black tea or not. This really tastes like, you know the bag of

00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:15.680
old black tea that your nans had at their house for like five years. It really kind of tastes like

00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:21.280
that. Like it's not like a fresh black tea. It's just like there's no floral-ness. I was thinking

00:23:21.280 --> 00:23:27.120
hotel tea. Yeah, hotel tea. Yeah. If this right here is more than like three dollars for like a

00:23:27.120 --> 00:23:33.920
hundred bags, you're getting ripped off. Well, lion actually ate at six. Six? I'd give this like a five

00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:44.720
tops. Yeah, maybe like a three or a two. Yeah, it's just boring. What do Eric Clapton

00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:48.160
and coffee have in common? They're both better with cream.

00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:56.000
That's okay. I don't expect you. I don't expect you.

00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.520
Jamie who was on earlier, it's like you guys were with McDonald's at the Grimace Cookies and

00:23:59.520 --> 00:24:05.200
like you're so old. This is the same thing you're so old. I remember McDonald's serve spaghetti and

00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:12.080
pizza. So we can get started on the breakfast stuff with you. Sure. Suss snacks. Why is it called

00:24:12.080 --> 00:24:17.120
Suss? That's like the worst name you could give something. So eat this before you wear an announcement.

00:24:17.120 --> 00:24:24.640
Sure, cheers to Rice Krispy. It's very sweet. Yeah, that's all right. Tastes like a Rice Krispy.

00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:31.680
Yeah. I don't know, six or seven maybe. I don't like Rice Krispies. You don't? Like a two. You don't

00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:37.200
like Rice Krispies? No. It's too sweet or what? It's just sweet and there's not a lot going on. It's

00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:42.400
real one note. But what about Rice Krispy with like chocolate chips in it? That can be improved.

00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:48.000
It can be very good. Well, the secret ingredient to this one is crickets. That's fine. I don't really

00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:54.080
care but like for the most part, I'm not really into eating insects. So is this like puffed cricket?

00:24:54.640 --> 00:25:02.000
Or is it puffed rice with crickets? Yes. Okay. Eight grams of protein. This is the bar of the

00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:05.200
future. I'm telling you, that's how, you know, that's how they keep us all sustained is they just

00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:11.760
give us cricket flour like the train show or movie. 45% macadamias. I love macadamias.

00:25:11.760 --> 00:25:18.000
Vegan keto paleo. Protein three grams. Okay, so less than the crickets. Yeah, smells like dark chocolate.

00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:22.160
Now, the more I chew it, the more I don't like it.

00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:29.120
No. Yeah, I'll get like a duck. I can give it like a four. I think five and a half.

00:25:31.520 --> 00:25:37.600
Worse. More. I love Rice Krispies. They're like a big childhood treat for me. I've

00:25:37.600 --> 00:25:44.880
read the Susnax like a seven or an eight. What? He didn't like them? Yeah, I think four is about

00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:51.280
correct. Man, I just I have such a sweet tooth. No blood sugar spike. Healthiest fat profile. Yeah,

00:25:51.280 --> 00:25:55.920
macadamias are super fatty. Is there a second mug? You've used it for them.

00:25:57.280 --> 00:26:00.960
Well, we can just swap this over. Yeah, just put it in there. That smells good. Yeah.

00:26:05.840 --> 00:26:10.960
Damn, don't do that shit. You know, caffeine absorbs through your tongue and like your mouth quite a bit.

00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:14.080
That's fine. I'll just whiten them.

00:26:16.080 --> 00:26:20.240
It's okay. Yeah, that's pretty good coffee. Yeah, it's not it's not too bitter. I mean,

00:26:20.240 --> 00:26:24.880
to be honest, though, I'm attributing a lot of that to brewing it in here than anything else.

00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:29.040
You can make bad coffee tastes pretty good by brewing it like this. It's very unaffensive.

00:26:29.040 --> 00:26:34.640
I feel like that I put a lot of grounds in there. And I feel like I could have put in even more.

00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:38.720
Yeah, it's not like crazy strong. I was worried. Honestly, I was worried to come out like really

00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:42.880
bitter and stuff when you put that much in. But no, it's fine. I'd give it like a six and a half.

00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:46.480
Yeah, six and a half sounds about correct. Yeah. I think if we got the light roast and

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:50.320
we're able to grind it ourselves, this could actually be like a really good cup of coffee.

00:26:50.320 --> 00:26:57.840
Yeah. That's a Hank, though, put the roast date on it. Sweet mac and mellow. What is this animal?

00:26:57.840 --> 00:27:03.680
A mishmash of creatures? What's that rabbit thing with jackalope? Yeah. Yeah. Maybe it's got wings,

00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.840
though, or a singular wing. Oh, yeah. So I'm guessing this is from Good Mythical Morning,

00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:12.720
aka Red and Link. The marshmallow tastes like a regular marshmallow.

00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:18.000
It tastes like, yeah, really. No, it's stale, bad, flavorless cap and crunch.

00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:24.800
Yeah. Yeah. That's kind of what it is, though. Cap and crunch has like, it has for one that crunch,

00:27:24.800 --> 00:27:29.280
but it also has like that bit of sweetness. Yeah. I can crush a bowl of cap and crunch.

00:27:29.280 --> 00:27:32.560
I don't care how bad my roof, the roof of my mouth is going to get destroyed.

00:27:32.560 --> 00:27:36.800
That being said, I'm also weird and I like to let my cereal sit and get mushy sometimes.

00:27:36.800 --> 00:27:41.280
I know it is. That's weird. I'm well aware. I'm well aware. One problem I'm noticing

00:27:41.280 --> 00:27:45.680
is that there's a really large size disparity between the mac and the mellows.

00:27:46.560 --> 00:27:52.560
So we have almost no mellows until the bottom. So you're going to have a really different

00:27:52.560 --> 00:27:56.880
experience at the start versus the end of the bag. If we get the mellows, we get the mellows.

00:27:57.760 --> 00:28:02.800
We got some mellows. That's a lot of cereal. He's a hungry boy. Alex, have you seen Alex?

00:28:02.800 --> 00:28:08.160
He's a growing man. Wow, like I'm gaining some weight, but you don't have to throw it in.

00:28:09.040 --> 00:28:13.920
No, I haven't looked at cereal prices in a long time. What the f***? What? Oh, it's frozen. Oh,

00:28:13.920 --> 00:28:19.760
nice. Nice. Sorry, I froze it. I would freeze the almond milk. Well, I don't want to give you

00:28:19.760 --> 00:28:22.240
you guys cold milk. What's your favorite cereal, Alex?

00:28:25.120 --> 00:28:30.320
I don't know. I do really like a good apple jack. Oh, that's a good answer. Yeah.

00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:36.400
It's like Cheerios, but tasty. Yeah. They're way better than Cheerios.

00:28:40.560 --> 00:28:45.360
Yeah. I like golden grams myself. Kind of weird. They're little squares, but they're good.

00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:51.440
I only got one spoon. David, can you get that out? No. It's actually pretty good. I like the

00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:58.880
macaroni shape. It is a lot better with milk. Yeah. Most cereal is. And like the way that the

00:28:58.880 --> 00:29:03.600
marshmallows and the mixed stuff, yeah, when it goes together, you get that sweetness that I

00:29:03.600 --> 00:29:09.520
was missing before. I would still take bad for you cereal over this any day. This is so bad for you,

00:29:09.520 --> 00:29:12.960
isn't it? Is it? There's no way that it's not. Then it's even worse than I expected. It tastes

00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:16.720
like corn. It can't be healthy. All right. Since when did the cereal aisle get so serious?

00:29:17.760 --> 00:29:24.080
Nine grams. Yeah. That's quite a bit of sugar per one cup. I don't hate it. I don't know if I'd buy

00:29:24.080 --> 00:29:29.520
it depending on the price. It's probably like 10 bucks US. You guys are trying. I like the orange

00:29:29.520 --> 00:29:34.560
color that is very much orange here and not quite nearly as orange here. I don't think I'd want it

00:29:34.560 --> 00:29:39.680
to be quite that orange. No, you don't want to eat Cheetos for breakfast. I got to eat a second

00:29:39.760 --> 00:29:45.280
bite. It's okay. Yeah. I would finish the bowl. For full clarity, if someone handed me a bowl of

00:29:45.280 --> 00:29:48.560
this, I would eat it for breakfast. No problem. I wouldn't make complaints. Yeah. I'm going up to a

00:29:48.560 --> 00:29:54.880
seven. Really? Yeah. Look at that much. Well, I guess that's not including price. Also, I think that

00:29:54.880 --> 00:30:01.520
camera just cut. It tastes good. I give the cereal like a four to be honest. Four. I think I'm going

00:30:01.520 --> 00:30:06.560
to go with a six. I was thinking seven before, but I'm going six. I think I'm going to land on a

00:30:06.560 --> 00:30:14.000
five point five. Yeah. No, it's above eatable or above enjoyable, but not much. We're going to be

00:30:14.000 --> 00:30:18.880
touching knee hair. We got the cross, I think. Welcome to the show. I'm James. I'm David. I'm

00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:26.800
Riley. And today we are testing out this one up candy. It's sour. You know about this? No, I don't.

00:30:26.800 --> 00:30:32.080
This is supposed to be so crazy sour that it comes with a little neutralizing agent to help you

00:30:32.080 --> 00:30:35.760
not taste the sourness after. So you can get it rid of your mouth and go back to normal human

00:30:35.760 --> 00:30:40.880
existence. But what's the point? Linus tasted it and was like, this isn't even sour, you guys,

00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:44.960
and didn't even bother with the neutralizing agent. So I think that we should not either,

00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:49.760
regardless of how it affects us. Yeah, but Linus doesn't see ads online. So you can't really

00:30:49.760 --> 00:30:53.760
can't see ads, can't taste sour. Yeah, that's, I thought those were connected. I am pretty weak

00:30:53.760 --> 00:30:57.120
to sour things. Well, I think that is going to be fun for everyone, but you

00:30:57.120 --> 00:31:06.720
didn't see this. No face, no chase, you guys. Okay, but I want to be honest about what I'm

00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:13.600
feeling right now. And it's pretty sour. Is it? I mean, sour. Mine isn't even as sour as a sour

00:31:13.600 --> 00:31:20.800
key. Like it's nothing. Oh, it's like, I feel like it's above sour key below warhead. You gotta

00:31:20.800 --> 00:31:25.600
suck on it. Maybe the chewing was the mistake. I feel Oh, yeah, don't chew it. Oh, okay. I'll do

00:31:25.600 --> 00:31:29.680
this again. Now you take mine. You got to leave it in your mouth. You hear that sound when they

00:31:29.680 --> 00:31:33.680
separated. It's disgusting. Now it's getting less sour. I'm going to get to the gummy.

00:31:35.360 --> 00:31:38.640
No change for me. It's a problem with sour things that it's always just a coating that

00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:43.440
disappears almost instantly. It's still pretty sour. There's nothing in there. Oh,

00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:47.680
I don't want to say it's the sourest thing I've ever put in my mouth.

00:31:49.600 --> 00:31:54.000
I left that open for interpretation. I have had lemon spritz solids that are sour.

00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:59.840
Really? This is like broken. Like I'd be like, Oh, I think I got a bad one. Like

00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.760
like it's false advertising. It's definitely not worth the warnings. Sour experience is like a

00:32:05.760 --> 00:32:12.640
four to 10 flavor, like a five. It's fine. It's not not offensive. If we're going with what they're

00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:18.080
trying to sell here, I'm giving it like a one or a zero. Like it's more sour than a banana, but it's

00:32:18.080 --> 00:32:27.120
not even a warhead. Dune two is better. Should we put the neutralizer in our mouth though? That

00:32:27.120 --> 00:32:32.640
could be sour. That would be so funny. That could be anti-sour. What is that? There's like a chemical

00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:41.040
that changes the problem. Oh, it's sweet. Yeah. Like what is that? That's like a very specific

00:32:41.040 --> 00:32:45.360
kind of cotton candy like, but not like a marshmallow, like colored marshmallows, like

00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:50.480
pink and blue ones. Lucky Charms. They give you eight of Lucky Charms marshmallow. Well,

00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:56.960
Linus rated it as one. So the neutralizer or the whole experience? This is my neutralizer. These

00:32:56.960 --> 00:33:01.920
things rule. Okay. I just want to, like from what I'm hearing, I don't know if you guys have your

00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:07.360
tongues like blasted to insensitivity or something, but like that was really sour to me. Okay. It was

00:33:07.360 --> 00:33:12.240
really sour. You always call me an edgelord, but I want to state for the record, I'm not a hot sauce

00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:16.960
person. I'm not. I don't even like candy, let alone sour candy. Like I don't want sour keys.

00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:21.760
That literally was just so milk toast. Well, David, it's kind of started the next challenge.

00:33:21.760 --> 00:33:27.600
Trying, he's hot sauce. He's already going. How did you do it? Did you do it on the chip? I feel like

00:33:27.600 --> 00:33:33.840
the neutralizer makes it more spicy because I've had the other ones. It's not particularly spicy,

00:33:33.840 --> 00:33:38.080
even with the neutralizer. I don't know what to give you. I mean, it's like a two to ten spicy.

00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:46.720
I feel like whatever neutralizes sourness probably enhances. Any more than this? I'm going to flip it

00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:51.280
so it's on the tongue, right? Yeah. Here, let's do this. Eye contact.

00:33:53.840 --> 00:33:55.360
This is like the... Hold on.

00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:04.240
It's tasty though. This is the sauce that is bad default on the table at a Mexican restaurant.

00:34:05.040 --> 00:34:07.760
Yeah, which is great. I would way rather have better flavor than spicy.

00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:15.120
Yeah. I'm just saying that's the level. It's like... How hot is this supposed to be? Because that's not supposed to be hot. It's definitely hot. It's just like a green sauce. I saw it back then.

00:34:16.240 --> 00:34:21.680
It's not the hottest sauce I've ever had. It's quite tasty though. I would definitely put that on

00:34:21.680 --> 00:34:25.920
food. Can I have one more? This is good. I did get a bunch of hot sauces for... Let me serve you.

00:34:26.480 --> 00:34:32.720
Oh god. For the stream where we sold the PC for two dollars and so I was trying to find spicy,

00:34:32.720 --> 00:34:37.760
spicy hot sauces and I got a bunch of hot sauces that I would never ever want in my fridge. This,

00:34:37.760 --> 00:34:46.720
I would actually want in my house so I could put it on like eggs or something. Waiting. Flavor? Eight out of ten? I'm giving it a seven. Biable. With a lot on it chip, it's uh...

00:34:48.720 --> 00:34:54.960
effective. About as good as Dune 2. Which is... High praise. I mean, I gave it nine out of ten,

00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:01.840
but now I don't even know. Well, Lime's rated also a nine out of ten. Dune? I really like it.

00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:05.840
Heated the burger hot sauce though, so... The burger is less hot. I am

00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:11.440
sweating underneath my eyes here. I'm getting dewy here. I took a big dollop.

00:35:12.720 --> 00:35:16.000
That was bigger than what you gave me? I don't know. My tongue is,

00:35:17.040 --> 00:35:22.560
it's feeling, it's feeling spiky. It's a roller coaster of emotions. That's what spiky spiky does.

00:35:22.560 --> 00:35:30.800
Blue shell. Bye. See you in three years.
