- Who does fast food bacon best?
- Let's talk about that.
(bright music)
- Good mythical morning.
- You know what I love about bacon?
- It's bacon.
- Exactly, it's bacon.
It tastes like bacon, it looks like bacon,
it clogs my arteries like bacon.
- In layman's terms, bacon is the best bacon product
on the market, period. - Yes.
- But what's the best fast food bacon on the market?
- Well, it's time for You May Take Our Sight,
But You Will Never Take Our Bacon.
"Braveheart" reference.
- Oh, thanks for explaining that.
- Mm-hmm. - Stevie?
What's happening? - What's happening?
- [Stevie] Today, you'll be tasting
six different bacon strips from McDonald's, Wendy's,
Burger King, Subway, Starbucks and KFC.
- Okay.
- [Stevie] You'll rate each one
on a scale of 1 to 10 and then guess
which fast food joint it's from
and whoever guesses the most bacon locations right
will be named Bacon's Best Friend
and cement that relationship
throughout "Good Mythical More."
- Is that gonna get weird?
- Sounds like it.
- You talk about consummate?
Uh-huh.
- I don't know if I want to- - With bacon?
Maybe, I don't know.
You think you gonna be good at this?
- Uh-
- I've never isolated the bacon.
- I'm gonna be good at eating bacon, yes,
but I'm not gonna be good at telling you where it's from.
Maybe one or two of them, let's see.
- Yeah.
(grand music)
As you can see, we can't.
- Each piece of bacon will be delivered to us using
the patent pending Strip Zip.
It's a zip line for bacon, Link.
- I love this idea,
but I don't know what it's gonna be like
to get smacked in the face with a strip of bacon.
- Let's find out, let's do it.
- Hit us.
(crew laughs)
Scoop, did it...
I smell bacon.
Did it, ah, here we go.
- I like eating bacon hands free.
- Mm-hmm, the thing about fast food bacon is
it's never crispy enough.
- This bacon is not, I mean, bacon is always good,
but good bacon is great.
You know what I'm saying? - What? No.
Bacon is always good- - All bacon is good.
- But only some bacon is great.
- All bacon is good,
but if you're-
- You said good bacon is great.
- But if you're on the good side
of good bacon, you're great.
- Yeah, but then this is not great bacon.
- This is not great bacon,
but it's still good.
- Yeah, it's got a good smoky taste.
It didn't seem too fatty. - Pretty thin.
- I'm gonna get over the fact
that it wasn't crispy 'cause I don't think any
of them are gonna be.
- Yeah, you can't make it too crispy.
Five, this is the middle of the road.
- The taste is good. - Middle of the road bacon.
- You know what?
I'm gonna give it a seven.
I think that the taste- - Whoa.
- Was pretty poppin'.
- Okay, well, hold on, let me think about-
- You know me and talk about poppin'.
- Let me think about where this bacon might be from.
- It's a flat bacon.
Not a lot of undulation.
There's one place that I think has more undulation
in their bacon.
- More undulation the bacon.
- But only one place. - Bacon undulation.
- I'm thinking of this place.
- [Rhett] Oh, man.
- Didn't mean to be so aggressive with it,
but that's what I was thinking.
- This is not easy in terms
of just, you gotta start just naming things,
you gotta just come up with its.
- All right, I'm ready.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
- Starbucks. - McDonald's.
You thought it was Starbucks.
Mm-mm.
- There's a bacon double, double bacon smoked thing
at Starbucks that I think tastes like that.
- That can't be right.
(grand music)
- Zip us.
Skew.
Man, this kind of makes me wanna go zip lining again,
but with bacon.
- Uh-oh.
Ooh, I'll get out.
- Ooh, now I gotta eat my words
as I'm eating this bacon because
that is some crispy bacon.
(crew laughs)
- You having trouble? - Yeah.
- Mm.
- I really wanna use my hands, but I won't.
- I want some more of that bacon.
Wow.
It went right in my mouth.
- Oh, man.
- Isn't that crispy? Is yours crispy?
- Oh, it got me.
- What are you doing?
(crew laughs)
- Look a fish.
- Just eat the bacon.
- That bacon's next level, man.
- I'm telling you, is yours crispy and good?
- Oh, yes, it's so good.
It took me a lot to get it.
- I didn't expect any of these fast food places
to deliver the crispiness
that I'm experiencing with this-
- Yeah, you stated that in round one.
- Magnanimous bacon.
Now I am using a fast food scale.
So, don't get me wrong here.
So, when I give this a nine,
it is a fast food bacon nine,
not an all the bacon I've ever had nine.
Give me a break.
- Good gracious, now I've got to rethink everything.
- Yeah, I'm giving a fast food bacon scale.
- My expectations were so low.
- So, if real bacon- - Nine.
- Was included, what would your scale go to
just for reference?
- The best bacon that I've ever had-
- On your scale right now,
what would the best bacon be, a 20 or a 15 or 30,
I don't know.
- Yeah, I think it would probably be a 25.
- A 25?
Wow, you're operating in the below the bottom half
of the all bacon scale.
- Well, it's just fast food,
I cut my expectations in half.
- The crispiness, I don't wanna let
the crispiness get to me too much.
It was so welcomed, but I gotta say flavor wise,
it was just- - Yeah.
- Good.
- It wasn't as smoky.
- I'm gonna give it a solid eight, though.
I'm gonna give it a solid eight.
- Where's that from?
- Where do they crisp it so hard?
- And I wondered did they order on something
and pull it off or did they just order it ala carte?
- I don't know how all this works, man.
- 'Cause I think if they ordered ala carte bacon-
- I'm gonna keep my mouth open.
I'm waiting for things to fall into it.
- I think they ordered ala carte bacon.
That's the only way it could be this crispy.
- Yeah, right, 'cause you put that on bread,
bread's gonna cause it to get- - Flop, man.
- Limp. Okay, but where's it from?
Who's got the bacon that's this crispy?
- [Stevie] We ordered all of the bacon on the side,
by the way, so it didn't touch anything else.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, I'm ready.
- I know so little here.
- I am 100% confident.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
- Burger King. - Subway.
- Oh, Subway's got crispy bacon?
- Well, I obviously think they do.
(grand music)
- Release the bacon.
- Oh!
- Okay. - Uh-huh.
- Stevie, don't say ew.
- [Stevie] I was thinking about all
the bacon grease you're getting all over your-
- Nose and mouth. - [Stevie] Nose.
Yeah, and then you're just like rubbing it repeatedly.
- When these masks go on the internet hall of fame
and first there has to be a hall a fame,
but I would hope that these masks
would go in it one day.
All of the grease and everything is accumulating.
Have we ever laundered these masks?
What are you doing, dude?
Eat the bacon.
How hard can it be?
- Really hard.
Hey, man, this is crispier than that last one.
- Mine wasn't as crispy as the last one.
- This is awful.
- It's not good bacon at all.
- Oh! - This is-
- Oh! - This is subpar bacon.
- What is wrong with y'all? - Yeah.
- Place that makes this bacon.
- Yeah, I gotta give it a two.
- I'm giving it a one. I'm offended.
- [Stevie] What's so bad?
- It tastes like it's made
for dogs. - It doesn't have a taste.
It doesn't have a good taste.
It doesn't taste, it just tastes greasy.
- It's like a different part of the pig.
- And then the meat-
- It's like where they used
to get bacon from before the new bacon.
You know, it's like a different part.
- The bad spot.
- It's like from the foot.
This is foot bacon.
- Foot bacon.
- This is definitely foot bacon.
- I know where this is from.
I'm feeling a queen sweep.
- Three. - Hold on, hold on, hold on.
- [Rhett] What makes you think you know this?
- I don't know, just sometimes I can just feel it.
- Okay. - In my loins.
- [Stevie] Two, one.
- Subway. - Burger King.
- I think Subway's got bad bacon.
- I think you've been fooled, my friend.

All right.
- Bacon, please. - Zip it.
Oh.
Oh, now I'm having a difficult.
- That's a greasy piece of bacon.
- It must be a long piece of bacon.
Here it goes.
- Good gracious, that's greasy.
And salty.
- It is very greasy.
- It's too greasy.
It was thin in a weird way.
Where are they doing bacon like this?
- It's a little better than the really bad bacon, though,
but not much.
I think it's a four.
I'm going all the way to four.
- Yeah.
Once I get rid of the grease, the taste is not bad.
- Where are they greasing it up so hard?
- I'm a give it a four. We agree.
- I think there's a place
that might be willing to great it this hard.
- Oh, man.
See, the thing about Wendy's is Wendy's goes hard
with their bacon.
They got a Baconator.
- And I've had that.
- Shoot, my queen sweep- - Is in jeopardy.
- It's in jeopardy.
- I love how you think you've already had
a queen sweep, which, boy, I'll be really impressed
if you got the first three right.
- It was such a long piece of bacon, too.
That's the thing.
- Yeah, yeah, I'm still chewing it.
- Like Starbucks ain't got,
well, I don't wanna give you any hints,
but they ain't got bacon that long, man.
- They don't have any sandwiches that long.
- They ain't got no sandwiches that long.
- Can't have bacon longer than your sandwich.
- It seems like you're pointing me to Subway now.
- Hmm. - You ready?
- Yep. - But what about KFC?
What is KFC doing with bacon anyway?
- Who knows, man?
- I don't know. - Who knows.
- It's a chicken space.
What you doing with bacon in a chicken space?
- Maybe it's chicken bacon.
- Is it chicken, is chicken bacon a thing?
Turkey bacon's a thing,
but I ain't never had chicken bacon.
- I bet you I could make chicken bacon
if you gave me enough time.
- Chicken bacon is not a thing, dude.
- It could be and should be.
- It is not and should not.
- I'm ready.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
- KFC. - Subway, Subway.
That's a good long bacon right there.
- Hold on, you guessed Subway twice.
- I know.
(grand music)
- When's the last time you went on a zip line?
- Oh, man.
- I went through a kick and I'm over it.
- I think I was probably with you
the last time I was on a zip line.
- Zip it.
- And we did the tandem.
- Well, I was in somebody's backyard.
I had a friend who had a zip line in his backyard.
- Who's that?
(crew laughs)
- Mm.
- You got a friend with a zip line?
- Yeah, I got a friend with a zip line.
He took it down.
- So, it's like a dinky one?
(crew laughs)
- That was a long piece of bacon.
- Yeah, you're telling me.
- What on earth could be happening?
(crew laughs)
How complicated could this be?
- It's like a zip line.
- You strap in, you go up the platform, whee, there you go.
This is not bad bacon.
This is middle of the road fast food bacon.
- That's eight inch bacon.
(crew laughs)
I measured it with my lips as I drew it in.
- Yeah, it was a long bacon.
- It seemed to be pretty good bacon, though.
It was a little smoky, it was a little bit crispy.
- I'm a give it a five.
- I'm giving it a six.
- Yeah, I mean, it was-
- It's not the best bacon I've had.
- There was actually the meat to fat ratio was
a little too on the meat side.
- Maybe if you buy bacon on the side at this place-
- It gets longer.
- It gets longer because they're like
we break it when we put it on sandwiches.
- (whispers) Yep, they might do that.
- [Stevie] You ready to guess?
- You think that's what they do?
- Mm-hmm, yep.
- Okay.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
- Wendy's. - Burger King.
- Oh, huh. - Yeah.
- Why?
- Because it wasn't as good as I think Wendy's should be.
- Well, I agree with that.
I expect more of Wendy's.
(grand music)
Okay, this one's going straight in my mouth.
- And you need to savor this
'cause this is the last time bacon might ever
be zip lined in your mouth, ever dude.
- Uh-huh. - Hit me.
- Oh, no.
I got it, I got it.
Whoa, that's crispy!
And maple-y. - And maple-y?
- Yeah, that's maple bacon.
- It's not maple-y, it's smoky.
- It's smoky and maple-y.
- Hmm. This is the best bacon.
- Mm.
- I think this is better than the bacon I gave
a nine to.
So, on the fast food scale.
- You think this is the perfect bacon?
It's too thin.
It's too thin for perfect bacon.
I'll give it another eight though,
I'll give it another eight.
- You know what?
I'm gonna have to give it,
because I already gave one a nine,
I have to give this one a 10
on the fast food bacon scale.
- You think this is perfect bacon?
- Well, if I had my way,
I would shift all of my scores down a point
and give this one a nine, but I can't, so-
- That's against the rules.
- On the unslid scale, I'm giving this one a 10,
but let's not get worked up over it.
- There's one I haven't guessed,
but I don't think it was this one.
- Who do I think has the best bacon?
And if it's KFC.
- I'll just say it.
- I am gonna shock, I'm gonna be shocked.
- I'm gonna say- - Ready?
- I'm gonna say it, I don't care.
- [Stevie] Three, two, one.
- McDonald's. - Wendy's.
It's not. - Okay.
- I just said McDonald's because
that's the only one I hadn't said.
- You said McDonald's.
So we got a lot to take off here.
All right.
Oh, my goodness.
- [Stevie] How do you feel?
- I feel- - Horrible.
- My arteries have withstood the test.
You're a champ.
- I think there's a chance I got zero right.
- Here's a little bit of bacon right here.
- I'd be willing to guess,
I'd be willing to bet $7 that I got zero right.
- [Stevie] Well, there was an upset
before I get to your scores
because until the last round,
your favorite bacon was by far from Wendy's,
which is what you had guessed.
- Yeah, so what beat Wendy's.
- [Stevie] But in the end,
it wound up being from Burger King.
- What? - [Stevie] Yes.
I'm not lying to you.
- [Rhett] Because you gave it a 10.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Well, all right, kudos, Burger King.
You surprised me.
I underestimated you.
- [Stevie] So, Rhett, you got one correct.
- Uh-huh. (bell dings)
- [Stevie] And, Link, you got one correct.
- That's all we did, huh?
- In fact, the round where you said you were worried
it was gonna ruin your queen sweep, it did
because that was the one you got correct.
- Wow. - An anti-queen sweep.
- You ruined your backwards queen sweep.
- All right, well, I'm a go back to Burger King
and get that barbecue bacon burger then.
- It wasn't bad.
I mean, we both, they were both kind of losers,
but we do get prizes.
What do we get?
- [Stevie] You get to be bacon's best friends.
- So, what is, it's half of this is
for me and half of this is for bacon?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And half of this is for me
and half of this is for bacon.
- Let's just let, oh.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We're gonna get to know our bacon boys.
