Fancy Junk Food Taste Test

today we tried gourmet

food

made for the average joe, let's talk about that mythical good morning in life: you have

food

s high in falutin, like lobster tails and beef bourguignon, and then you have foods low in falutin, like chicken wings and pizza rolls , but if your

taste

buds are

fancy

and dancey or more like mine, good food is good food, then what if you could take those

fancy

, fancy ingredients and put them down? What I'm saying is make them for every man or every woman or every person, that's who we are. What we're going to do today, we're going to try to broaden not only our palette, but yours as well, and see if we can get all the average diners in the world to enjoy some premium expensive ingredients by making our favorite

junk

food really fancy.

It's time for premium snacks, part two, well we've got our average Joe, well our average messing up our average link hats and we've got our Harney County paddles ready, yeah, and we pick out some of our average written links supermarket

junk

food favorites and now we've asked legendary chefs to create premium versions of those foods incorporating very expensive ingredients. Yes, we're going to try each dish alongside the actual dish to see if the average Joe would prefer this new bougie version. or if there's nothing better than that crap and at the end of each round we're going to decide if this fancier food is good for the average Joe or the average Joe, don't bring it, what if the uncrustables decided to imagine their little circular delights ? and make a crustless caviar with champagne gelatin.

I have the real one here. Real Barkless Link has the fancy new version on its side. Now a box of 10 Crustless Peanut Butter and Grape Jelly Cookies costs eight dollars at Ralph's, so how much would it cost? the equivalent of these fancy uncrustables here is oh 55 only 120.55 when you try it you'll realize what a bargain that's okay well let's chase the real thing again oh man I just did that I made a bell. rings with my winter schedule, come get it, come get it, that's good, I mean, you can't go wrong with that, you could go wrong if it had some scab on it, be like, what the hell should I be afraid of?

No, okay, so historically you have. I didn't like caviar in the past, but we have some really good stuff, this is Kaluga caviar, this is real sturgeon, the champagne jam should really activate it. Real sturgeon, real sturgeon, not the fake stuff you've ever seen, how big is a sturgeon, they're big and when you squeeze them little eggs come out, but what do little black eggs have to do with peanut butter? Nothing, it's elegant, exactly, let's take a good bite to make something happen. I shouldn't have looked first, but I did. I mean Jell-O is sweet, I'm not tasting any ocean, but you'll keep chewing.

Ah, there it is. It actually balances pretty well, although Link loves it. It's fun at the right time. It actually balances out pretty well while I throw up on my plate. Well, actually he did. I don't know what kept it down, I hated it, um, I hated it, I can appreciate that, oh, look at the blackness of those balls, but this is like, I mean, the real thing is just a match made in heaven, man, I want to be able to give something fancy to someone and not even tell them what it is and then say why this is different.

I think I'm interested in knowing the details. Something this is not going to do and maybe my standard is also the same. high, but I have to forget, yeah, I'm on the same page here large, old, average crustless caviar no, are you familiar with the cheese at Duo's, eh, you have, what are these? These are parmesan and cheddar and cheddar go together, two different cheeses, but what if we took cheese in duos and decided to take their cheese game to the upper crust of society with truffle burrata, combined with I'm going to slaughter this cachio cavallo podolico cacho cavallo podolico that coffee, look now first of all, didn't I really do it?

I know about Duo California, these cheesy doodles, but they're just two different things put together. I mean, first of all, I just have to get over this for a second like the average well, the average Joe might be like wait, there's two and it's a pair them and mix them with cheddar and parmesan, I don't know about that parmesan, you know , that's where we could be, but now we've gone to uh, okay, so pinocchio, uh, looks like the lighter ones, that's the truffle. this is the truffle burrata and then this darker one is the colored cup, yeah you nailed it, oh man, first of all, I really like your cheez-it consistency, it's like a cheese straw, flaky with cheese, I can participate in this, oh yeah, okay.

So you could get the regular duos for three bucks on target. What is the box of this that is going to cost us? So this costs forty dollars and eighty-three cents, but that's not really what's at stake here. It's strong, we're not saying what I want to achieve. the average joe would pay for this, we're saying that's true, the average joe would eat this if you served it to them and I think hell yeah it'll be like that well Jesus the cheese man yeah man any cheese is good , cheese, truffle, burrata and pinocchio. cheez: it's good for the average joe, the mythical chef josh doesn't just stand there and talk to us, of course, you also have another channel, yes, sometimes I talk to other people too, yes, and directly with you, it's the cooking channel mythical and us.

I want you to see it, he and Nicole will have a good time. Throw Trevor into the mix. Little V will go in there too. It is fun. They have a podcast. The hot dog is a sandwich. Wow, it makes me. It's great. you have to check them out, check them out, check them out right now, what if chef boyardee decided to change his delicious classic meat pasta for duck liver pâté? Yeah, I mean you don't like liver, but you like liver when you kick it. Do you think it's OK? Yes I have enjoyed a pâté, not all pâtés, some pâtés

taste

very good, but I have had a very good walk the day before so I am not going to rule this one out right away, you can get this chef boyardee. for 87 cents at Walmart y'all 87 cents josh how much would this cost at Walmart? money for things now I'm buying one.

I'm trying to give this a try, so I'm buying one that doesn't have pâté on the outside, so the outside is actually a kind of duck breast, a kind of ragù that's been cooked. with chianti too, oh, so that's meat, it's not just pâté, but also riet, that's me, no, don't focus on the liver, focus on the fancy, okay, here we go, focus on the fancy, I'm going to be completely concentrated. I'm concentrating on my fantasy, okay, man, that's not bad, the meat is not bad. I'm gripping this fork so hard I can bend it, it starts to taste like liver but it never turns into what I associate with liver tasting, oh look what you do.

I have made ravioli. I do not know what it is. It's so different again. It's like you don't want to tell them. I'll just eat it. You screwed up the ravioli. That's what they'd say if you didn't do it. tell them you were trying something because it doesn't look like anything you can get in a can at Walmart, this on the other hand definitely yeah, um, that may be a bridge too far, I mean, you're having, you're having a it was a really moment. difficult and I feel like I hated it. I feel like I didn't hate it as much as the other thing, although black eggs, if you like pâté you'll love it, although it's not bad, it's not bad and I think that and I would say it doesn't taste like livery and let me say a little bit, I would say which just in the name of clarifying what's fancy, eating liver straight down south isn't actually a luxury.

Which is like people go get the chicken livers that I normally use as catfish bait, that's true, and they fry them with onions and that's a super Southern thing, so I think this could really work, right? So? and there's no unpleasant aftertaste, there's nothing like liver and I think you've got that access point there. You already like liver, yes, more than I do, so you know what we're saying. Liver pâté, chef boy, good for the average Joe and finally, what if? klondike choco taco you're already eating it, yeah, one of our favorite frozen oil desserts decided to go for the super expensive spiced saffron we have here, uh, what's going to happen?

Will he win over the average Joe Rhett and the link? We do not know. we like the chocolate taco but it's really good last time we put a little saffron on some twinkies um we didn't like that it doesn't work for me because it tastes like a pool filter it tastes horrible and once I got the pool filter right one time something got stuck in the pool filter and uh, talk about a long weekend, that's funny, those guys are funny, that's funny, well, both of them, especially one who wasn't talking but was actually The one on the left was very funny, who? right, who didn't know, he got kind of stuck in the pool field, he had a long weekend, I get it, yes I know he's talking about it, he said my opinion, sometimes you have an accident and you're Happy about that, I know. what you're saying you know, you know, I know when you're talking and I don't think I can understand it, I mean I'm not going to complain about that man, I'm not complaining either, okay, so a box of chocolate. tacos cost 3.49 cents in the target with saffron, how much would a box of four dollars twelve cents cost?

That's nice, yes, now let me tell you that before I eat this I don't pound it or dig it well. I'll say this after we ate that saffron at the Twinkie, I made a paella and I put a little bit of saffron in it, but I made a little bit and I felt like I did it right because it's very strong and I actually started to like paella again, I mean, saffron, are you going to go bankrupt? This for us again here, how did you do that? Every time I have a dog, you will have a long weekend.

You have to figure it out. I remember when Rett got the paella fan and told me about it and I was like he's never going to make paella so I'm really glad you made it, yeah man I did that's exciting for me anyway this one It's a saffron waffle taco base filled with saffron and pistachio ice cream, swirled with saffron caramel and then topped. with saffron white chocolate and crushed pistachios, but I think the saffron will actually work with the chocolate taco format better than the twinkie. Is there a lemon there? No, there is not. That could just be the saffron's kind of interaction with the pistachio.

It has a very bright shine. It tastes very light and airy it's vanilla you say I think it works with vanilla what is vanilla you said it looks like someone it's like when a kid in a movie crashes a fancy party and acts like an adult from one adult to another it's vanilla there are two kids with a trench coat and they got on top like it was used vanilla there's no vanilla there either for the record just to be exact I didn't say I didn't even say I didn't say sir he didn't Not even hello adult well don't do it man don't make assumptions when you walk into that adult party when you were a kid.

Oh, there's real potassium in there. I feel like it's actually for me. It has a lemon flavor. I am wrong to say that there is something suspicious about saffron. No, I'm not wrong, you're wrong, yes, I try the fish. I mean, I've been petting my fish before I went to work today. I have a bucket in the back full of fish. I just go down there, touch them, pet someone, say hello, then come to work, do my day job, know the feeling, uh, um, I don't know, it's a little fishy to me, but I like it.

I don't hate it, I think it works, I think this is a gateway drug to saffron, yeah, I think it works, so we say saffron chocolate tacos are good for the average joke, aha, yeah, yeah, yeah, We pet a couple of fish. and we were lucky thanks for subscribing by clicking the bell do you know what time it is I'm Amanda I'm Emily I'm Alexis I'm Joey and we're cooking a turkey in a trash can in Floyd Virginia and it's time to wear out the medicine wheel call us Joey Joey a Joey likes it man, the turkey, I mean, okay, click the link above to watch us find out which wagyu beef jerky you should buy and which one you should stay away from and well, mythical, more and find out where the willamette calories go. landing ketchup is a shake yes, I put ice in my cereal so that doesn't make sense the hot dog is a sandwich a hot dog is a sandwich
