Today we're trying my favorite dishes at
different price points.
Cause it's my channel.
Let's talk about that.
((Intro Music))
Good Mythical Morning.
It's the moment you've all been waiting for.
The guy whose favorite foods are extremely specific.
Who hates tomatoes and a whole bunch of other things.
Who's the big boss man on campus.
Head honcho.
The wind beneath Rhett's wings.
Yeah, that's right.
Today is all about me.
And my
favorite foods.
Okay, well, I guess the Mythical crew didn't think
I was a priority today.
It's fine.
I'll fire you all later.
It's time for Naked Foods Naked Link Edition.
Naked, Link has been spoken to beforehand, has agreed
to keep all his clothes on.
((Music))
- [Stevie] Today you'll be tasting some of Link's favorite
dishes at low, mid, high, and fancy price levels.
Each round you'll pick your favorite, and by the end we'll
see how expensive your taste is when it comes to Link's
taste?
Yeah.
- [Stevie] First, this is chicken marsala.
Rhett, this is chicken marsala.
Ooh.
You know the great thing about this is that I like
everything, so even though it's your favorite foods,
I'm probably as much, or more excited than you are.
Are you surprised with this choice?
Because I made a whole list and I didn't know
what they were going to choose from the list.
I don't know if I would have said this is one
of your favorites.
I know you like Italian.
And this one is potatoes, not pasta.
This is certainly different.
And green beans don't need to be on chicken marsala.
That is strange.
Not great.
Now, mushrooms, they need to be in pasta.
Now, if I look at this chicken here, it's a chicken strip.
It's got a nice fry to it and a nice golden, well,
there's a green thing on it.
Get, get, get the green thing.
You don't like the spinach?
I'm just saying I want to show the little, the nice fry here.
This is pretty nice.
I got really excited about chicken marsala when I
realized that it was wine.
Oh, this is how you get your wine intake, huh?
Yeah.
That's what I do.
What's your favorite wine?
Chicken marsala?
Well, the wine part is just the Marsala, I think.
That's a joke.
That's pretty good.
I like that. I like that.
I'd like more sauce.
I also like it because it's the first dish I discovered
in an Italian restaurant that seemed like I was just eating
something with gravy on it.
Oh, yes.
Now, this one is.
These are all very different.
None of them is what I usually expect.
This one has, not only the mushrooms you would
expect, but olives all over.
Oh, I was about to say, something
tastes good in there.
Olives.
You're not gonna like this, man.
That's nice.
That black olive flavor, it definitely doesn't taste
like normal chicken marsala.
I'm dodging the olives, and it's got that thick sauce
that I'm, that I favor.
Now this is like when you go to one of those fancy
restaurants, and they give you that, and then they give
you some pasta on the side.
Or they don't give you the pasta, and you're like, you,
hold on, you didn't tell me I had to order the pasta?
What?
Oh, I wouldn't do that.
It's à la carte?
What?
Apparently it is here.
Okay, so this is very juicy.
That's the taste that I'm expecting.
I can't even get the chicken on the fork.
Finally.
It took it this long to happen.
Okay.
Yeah, it literally tastes like Marsala.
Chicken marsala.
That's the one that tastes like Marsala wine.
- [Stevie] Make your favorite choices in 3, 2, 1.
I gotta go with this one.
And we agree.
Easy.
I thought I was gonna vote for this one, because it's
creamy, but, that's the bomb right over there.
- [Stevie] Bros, you have both chosen the fancy option
from Dan Tanas for $42.
Dan Tanas.
- [Stevie] And of course we're exploratory with our fancy
celebration, so this time, I'm asking you to do the
fancy jeans machines, because that's how far we've
gotten, which means.
What?
You have to dance like a robot and I hope you're
wearing jeans, I guess?
I'm not, well, I'm not wearing jeans.
But it's,
but it's,
but it's pants?
So you, now you're coming up with other types of pants?
((Robotic Music))
((Laughing))
Okay, I get it.
Chicken marsala, synonymous with the Linkster.
- [Stevie] The other options you had, starting on Rhett's
side, the low option from Healthy Choice, which
is a frozen meal for 3.99
Horrible.
- [Stevie] The high price point was from Olive Garden for 21.49
Not bad.
- [Stevie] And then mid from Roma Deli for 17.44
Where's the Macaroni Grill?
They closed it.
Oh.
((Music))
- [Stevie] This is fish and black bean sauce?
This is.
You do love this.
Fish and black bean sauce.
What's the question mark, Stevie?
- [Stevie] You have really, just surprised me already.
Hey, he's a man of culture.
- [Stevie] I, uh.
Link actually turned me onto
this dish because there was a Chinese restaurant
that we would both frequent and, he's like, get the
fish and black bean sauce.
So I was like, well, okay, Link.
Well, I was actually looking for places.
And I did it and it was very good.
Years ago in Encino.
I was like, I was trying to find a place I wanted to
eat over on that, over there.
Chinese takeout, and they said best black bean
sauce chicken, uh, fish.
And I was like, I'll try that.
And I loved it.
It's actually really, really good.
- [Stevie] Oh, I'm not doubting that the dish is really good,
I just am surprised that Link is saying this is one
of his favorite dishes.
Well, let me tell you some things.
Dang, this second one, bro.
It's.
Way better.
It's very mild fish.
It's, it's soft.
The fish is like, it's fried but it's soft.
It's kind of like soft chicken.
Yeah, it's like the softest chicken you would ever eat.
- [Stevie] Okay, this makes more sense.
It makes more sense now.
You might think you're eating soft chicken.
Let's just be honest.
Yeah, it's like soggy chicken.
And this one, my friend, I love that flavor.
It's got some black pepper going in there.
Whenever I order this, I eat so much I wake up in the
middle of the night just like reaching for my water bottle.
Because it's always so salty.
Now this one, it's got more onions than that one,
and onions and peppers, that one's got zucchini?
The black bean flavor is really coming through
in this one, but, I don't like it as much.
Woo!
It's fishier.
It still tastes a little bit like soft chicken though.
Maybe they could call it soft chicken.
It was something bitter.
It would expand, you know, sales, I'm sure.
What was the bitter thing that I just tasted?
It's a little bit like fish.
Well, that's the softest chicken.
Yeah.
Now this one looks spicy.
It looks like a PF Chang's situation.
It's almost red.
Oh, dang.
Think this is good?
That's good to me.
I like the salty, spicy.
Some rice in there.
Sorry.
Really messing up your soft chicken.
Just get.
I got no rice.
I mean, yeah, soft chicken, that's exactly what it is.
Alright, I'm ready to vote, but I'm gonna keep eating.
You haven't decided?
I think I just did.
- [Stevie] 3, 2, 1.
I almost went back to this one, but then I.
This one's great, it's got a little something that is
not what's in my mind.
This one's fabulous.
- [Stevie] Link, you have chosen the mid price point,
Sun Moon Garden for 15.99
Yep.
So day and night in the garden?
Yep.
- [Stevie] Rhett, you have chosen the low price point
option, China Lites.
China Lites, turn them on, baby!
((Laughing))
So, is that frozen?
No way.
- [Stevie] I thought we had a deal that I wouldn't call you boys and
you wouldn't call me baby.
((Laughing))
- [Stevie] The first dish is our high price point from Fortune
Dragon Chinese Bistro for 19.99
and the fancy price point is that third plate
from Dragon Street for 25.95
Yeah, Dragon Street just, it's a little
strange, that's weird.
So, this is frozen?
No, it's not frozen.
No way that's frozen.
It's just the lowest?
- [Stevie] Correct.
There you go, Rhett.
I like it.
I like, I mean, I think maybe.
I like it too.
This might, maybe it's more authentic, cause it does
taste more like black beans.
But, just like this, it's a solid.
Get it.
You ain't got to go fancy for the beans.
((Music))
Well, I'm really feeling special today.
It's the, it's the special February Pin of the Month, and
it's me, anthropomorphicnized.
Yeah, you got it.
Anthropomorphized as a peanut butter jar.
Where am I at?
There I am.
Look at that.
It's got a spoon in it, because that's
the way to do it.
You can get it if you want it, but only today.
It's the February Pin of the Month.
And I'll say it again, it's only available for today.
And as a reminder, you can still opt into the monthly
subscription plan so you never miss a pin release.

- [Stevie] These are KBBQ galbi ribs.
These are Korean barbecue and everything else she said.
Yes.
((Laughing))
Your favorite.
Hey, listen, think about this, man.
If I could go back to little Link Neal in
Harnett County, North Carolina in 1987.
Yeah.
And be like, what are your favorite foods?
Nothing that we have eaten so far would be something
that you would say.
No, I discovered all these as an adult.
Yeah, so, I've taken you to an Italian restaurant,
I've taken you to a, a soft chicken restaurant,
and, now I've taken you to a Korean restaurant.
That's good.
It's sweet.
- It's a good meat. - It's meaty.
It's got that glaze.
Is it short rib?
Is that what they are?
That's what I think they are.
I'm just gonna eat it with my hands and I'm not
eating the rice because I'm focusing on the meat.
Right.
Now this one doesn't seem to have as much of
a glaze, but I can tell that there's some, there's
some nice onion and other green piece things on there.
You know Greenpeace, the organization.
Greenpeace.
They like to make.
Sponsored by Greenpeace.
Korean food.
It's good.
It's got a different, it's got a pretty smoky flavor.
I like it, but it's not what, it's not what
I was going in for.
I do really like the meat though, cause it's like,
Maybe that's because it's fancier or something?
I don't know.
This one's slathered with a lot of sauce.
Syrupy.
It's pretty typical.
Not great.
I don't like the meat as much, though.
Not bad.
What do we got over here?
And finally, this one, oh, this, this
one's a little chaos.
A little bit of chaos.
That's pretty dang good.
That's the flavor.
That is good.
It's just a question.
Is it?
This is so unexpected.
It's tougher, but the.
All right.
I'm ready.
- [Stevie] 2, 1.
Woo, this is so much fun.
- [Stevie] 1!
I had to go with, I almost went with this one.
This is very good.
Isn't it though?
And this one's not bad.
It's just that this one's bad.
- [Stevie] You have both chosen the high price point
option, Jin Cook for 29.99
Okay.
- [Stevie] The first one is our mid price point option,
Seoul Bistro for $23
The second one is the fancy option, The
Galbi Brothers for 49.99
Okay.
- [Stevie] And then the third one in is the low price point,
Mitzee Teriyaki for 17.95
17,
I mean, you're still, you're still
dropping some pennies on it.
It's not bad.
It's just when you compare it to these other ones. Now,
Link, you're gonna have to, this is gonna be
one of your favorite foods.
- You gotta. - This is so good.
You gotta be able to pronounce it.
So what do you, what is it called?
What do you call it?
- [Stevie] Galbi.
I've said galbi.
Any takes on not galbi?
Yeah.
- [Stevie] It's galbi.
One of my five favorite foods.
I can't say it.
- Galbi. - Galbi.
((Music))
- [Stevie] This is cookie dough.
This is cookie dough.
Just cookie dough?
Chocolate chip cookie dough.
I wonder how you sourced these.
Now these little cylinders here.
These are tiny.
It just looks like they chop.
They chop like a tube in a factory.
I think this is like if you.
Want to eat cookie dough pieces, pre made.
Will you humor me?
I mean, it's your day.
But I feel like, because it's your day,
and you're having fun.
I am having a lot of fun.
I feel like your best friend shooting some cookie
dough into your mouth from a distance with a spoon
would be something that you would feel celebrated.
Can you do it with one that I actually like though?
Okay, you don't like this one.
- [Link] No, that one's not good.
I'll do it with your favorite one.
- [Link] Now this one is greasy.
Oh gosh, it's gonna be hard to pick this up.
Slimy.
That's really good.
Better than the first one.
But this is not intended to eat like this.
That one's intended to eat like that.
Yeah, so it's like.
I don't know what this one's gonna do off of a spoon.
If you hit your glasses, it's sticking.
Woo!
That's good.
I see now you're going full ball.
I'm pacing myself.
Now these are, like, yellowish white.
But is this more what I would expect to pull
out of my own fridge?
I definitely like that better.
This is too, it's too wet.
Can I shoot this one into your mouth?
Yeah, yeah.
Now do I need to move any?
Well, I've never done this before.
Open as wide as you can.
Well, I think it's in the trash can.
Maybe if I get further back I can give you
more time to react.
Let's try the last one.
Okay.
((Laughing))
Now this one is strangely brown.
Like it's the color of a baked cookie already.
Gooey.
What?
It's got something else in it.
What?
What have you done to my cookie dough?
Monk fruit.
I ain't a monk.
I mean,
what is that?
Get off!
- [Rhett] You like this one though.
I really like this but it's, yeah, it's like such a gunk.
Which one do you want in your mouth from a distance?
This one.
Alright.
Then I'm ready to vote.
What am I gonna do?
Okay, here we go.
((Laughing))
Dude, now that's dirty.
Alright.
It's gonna happen.
It's just all about, it's all about.
Oh!
Hold on, it hit you on the tongue!
It hit right here on my lip.
Come on, it's gonna happen.
It's gonna happen.
Yeah!
Alright.
I just don't know though.
I do know.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
This one's good.
I would eat that.
Yeah, I bet all these are great cookies.
Well, at least that one.
- [Stevie] You guys are agreeing more often than you
usually do about Link's favorite things today.
Yeah.
- [Stevie] And you've both chosen the low price point from
Walmart.
Yeah, bring it.
- [Stevie] Marketside brand.
Really?
- [Stevie] Only 2.49
So, you can get your cookie dough kick at Walmart.
The first place.
Just keep it simple.
Keep the eggs in it.
Die young.
((Laughing))
- [Stevie] The first plate's our mid price point option.
Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough bites for 5.49
Then you have the high price point option, The
Cookie Dough Cafe for 9.99
So, so they do serve it like this?
- [Stevie] Correct.
Yeah, it's, it's, edible.
It doesn't have raw egg in it, that's bad
for you or something.
And then the last one is the fancy price point.
From Deux chocolate chip cookie dough for $16.
It was weird.
Yeah, but what's actually in it?
Y'all missed, y'all messed it up.
- [Stevie] Most of these have been like,
you know, balled for you, balled for your enjoyment.
Balled for you!
((Laughing))
Balled for me?
Hey, I'm balled for you.
((Laughing))
- [Stevie] The lowest, Link's faves, total, combined, was 37.93,
and the highest was 133.94
I was pretty sure I would stay very low on my own scale.
- [Stevie] Well, Rhett, your perfect Link meal was 87.98
and Link, yours was 90.47
Look at that!
You know what?
You're a little bit fancier Link than
you thought you were.
Yeah, I am.
I'm a fancier Link than you are.
Yep.
Well, I think you should be.
You know?
Yeah, I do too.
I don't want to be a fancier Link than you.
This has been very validating.
