- I'm cautiously optimistic.
- I had ham flavored lollipop last week.
- What was that like?
- Horrific.
- Was that just in your normal life or in here?
- No it was here. - Okay.
- So I'm like (chuckles) I'm a little bit worried.
(upbeat music)
- [Seán] Today you're here to try weird flavored candy.
(Brian and John exclaiming)
- Weird candy! - Weird candy!
- God, what's it gonna be?
- Pineapple lice flavoured.
(John chuckles)
- I'm here to try.
- Ooh.
(both laughing)
- Let me see your elbow.
- No.
(laughing together)
- Dear TRY Channel,

Archie McPhee in Seattle.
Thought you might have some fun
with these. Cheers and enjoy,
Andrew Toi, Patreon supporter and long time

How nice?
- That's so sweet.
- Get it in my sleeve.
(groans)
- There you go, there's some comments.
- [Colin] Ooh la la.
- What is it?
- Ooh. - Ooh.
- Fancy tin.
Pickle candy.
- Ah, come on.
- Oh for the love of...
- Oh, I love Pickles!
I'm sorry, I had a pickle yesterday.
I keep a jar at my house.
- Pickle!
Oh, Jesus.
- That looks like...
- Pickle Rick! - Pickle Rick!
- But his looks so cute. Look at him.
- He's really cute.
He's like "ehh, look at this!"
- Look at this, he's so cute.
- Finest briny confections.
Briny, sweet, tasty, dilly.
- It's a very appealing looking candy.
Look at it.
- It's very bright.
- Yeah that tin is really cute.
I love a good tin.
- Yeah, they're so nice.
- Okay, this doesn't smell bad.
I can't say the same for myself.
- I'm getting mint.
- Mm. It's says briny.
(laughing)
That's what they put tuna in.
- That's some pickle flavour, isn't it?
- Mm, that's great.
- Mm.
- It really tastes like pickle.
- Really does.
- If you gave me this I wouldn't know
that it was a joke sweet. I would just be like,
yeah, cool.
- When I have a gherkin usually it's only ever
in a...
- A McDonald's double cheese burger?
- Yes!
(groans)
- A really looooong McDonald's burger.
(John laughs)
- Do you know what it tastes like?
The burps that you have three hours
after eating a Big Mac.
- Yup.
Now with these you don't have to wait
three hours. After having a Big Mac.
- You can feel like you're eating a burp
right now.
- Yeah, you feel like you have indigestion
immediately.
- [Seán] Now, I can promise you, there's no clam.
- Okay.
But there is...
lobster. - Oh no.
- Oh my god.
- Do you like lobster?
- I do like lobster.
- Oh, I love lobster.
- Not as a sweet.
- I mean, if the last one was anything
to go by, it's going to be a vague...
- Whiff.
- Whiff of lobster.
- Yeah.
- Mr. Pinchy, can you hear me?
(James laughs)
- Do you know who would've loved these sweets?
Pinchy!
Pinchy's just upstairs having his bath.
- Ugh, I can smell it. That doesn't smell good.
- What the fuck is wrong with you?
Who sent us these?
- [Colin] Andrew.
- Hi, Andrew.
- [Colin] He's one of our patrons.
- Oh. - Oh.
Okay, we can't get mad at Andrew.
- Ooh, oh this is.
Oh my god.
- Wow, these taste really strongly of lobster.
- No. No thank you.
(James coughing)
(James exclaiming)
- Oh, no.
- That's real. - Oh, my God.
- That's real fishy.
(Brian coughing)
(John clears throat)
- I can fucking taste every part of it.
That's so weird.
- Taste every little...
Givin' it all that. Givin' it all that!
- Every single taste bud in my mouth
the taste buds in my asshole have all just gone.
(James chokes)
- (retching) No.
Okay, no.
(both coughing)
(Brian spitting)
- Ugh, the noise of that!
- God. - Jesus Christ.
- Out of ten?
(James chuckling)
- It was like cleaning off a fish with your tongue.
(John coughs)
That's what it was like.
- I don't really want to bite it,
but I feel like I should.
- Don't do it.
Don't do it. Don't do it.
(candy crunching)
- Don't! Aw. God.
- It's even stronger.
- Ugh.
Oh, my God. Wow.
- [Seán] Do you regret that?
- A little bit. - Bucket?
No, it's fine, no.
I'll finish it, it's okay.
- She's a fucking beast.
- Things got real, got weird.
- God, it's going to go downhill form here.
What's next?
- Oh my God, I can smell it. Ew!
Oh, Jesus.
It's like a smegy vag. It's just...
(Seán laughing)
- Oh, my God.
- Out of ten, I'd give that a
disgusting!
- Oh, my god.
Seán is literally behind the camera retching
at this point.
- Aw. That looks cute.
- Vegetable candy.
- Do you remember in the Simpsons
when Homer was having the heat hallucination
on the boat.
And he was dancing with all the candy.
♪ Sugar, do, do, do, do, do, do ♪
- Carrots, green beans, and corn.
- It can't be bad.
- No, can't be.
- That's three of your five a day.
- Okay, so mine doesn't smell of anything really.
- Same.
- Sugar.
♪ Do, do, do, do, do, do ♪
- That's really nice.
- Oh my god, that's so carroty,
straight away.
- Is that like... - Paw-ha Carrots!
- Oh, that is carrot.
Oh, that's carrot.
- Maybe I should try the green bean,
just so we can get a...
- Just to get a sense of it.
- These are just Willy Wonka sweets, like.
If I close my eyes, it was carrot.
- Ooh, that's overwhelmingly sweet corn.
- Is it yeah?
- They're really good. - How do they...
- They're really nailing these flavours.
- Sweets aren't supposed to taste like this.
- Now it's corn.
I split it open.
- When you crack it, it really intensifies it.
- Releases it.
- I'm just glad that I'm not eating the last one, so.
- You know when you drain a can of sweet corn?
- Yeah.
- This is like they've taken the juice
and put it in a sweet.
- So, would you like to know anything else
about these, apart form the fact that they are
really terrible.
- I think we need to save a few of these as palate cleansers
for whatever the hell is coming next.
- I don't really know what green beans taste like.
Apparently.
- Have you ever eaten them at dinner?
- Yes.
(Brian chuckles)
- Oh, yeah!
- Fried chicken!
- For the love of Jaysus, what are ya doin'?
- Fried chicken!
Yes.
- Fried, sweet, tasty, savoury.
- These smell really chickeny.
- Don't they?
- Really chickeny
- Ooh.
- The worlds finest fowl confection.
(James giggles)
- I haven't been this excited since...
I've never been excited.
- I've don't celebrate and I've never been excited.
- "Good luck, and don't cluck it up."
(metal clangs)
- What is wrong with, oh shit.
Oh God, where is it?
- Oh, lordy. - Oh!
- Whoa. That is fried chicken.
- It really smells like KFC.
- Wow, it's strong.
- You've got to wonder how many chemicals
are in this to make this taste exactly.
- How do they do this? This is incredible.
- Oh, it tastes like bad fried chicken.
- Ooh. Oh, my god it reminds me of salt chilli
shredded chicken that I get in the Chinese.
- It really does taste like a Chinese chicken.
- Yeah, it's like Chinese breaded chicken.
- That is literally like licking the breaded skin
off of a nice drumstick.
- My brain is so confused.
- I'm angry.
- Don't dangle chicken in front of me.
- Yeah!
- And then say, "oh yeah, there's some chicken flavoured sweets"
And then it tastes like burnt oil.
- It tastes like a Chinese takeaway.
- Totally.
- It's like chicken fried rice.
- Yes, it's like chicken fried rice.
- Whoa. - It's amazing.
- You did it. You finally did it.
- I'm just really impressed that they can
get that kind of flavour in a candy.
- It doesn't even taste like it's sweet.
- Watch out KFC. That's all I'm saying.
- So, is it finger licking good?
- No. No, it's fucking not.
- It's mouth spitting bad.
- Imagine if you had green beans,
sweet corn, carrots, and this.
It would be like a dinner.
- This is space food.
- You could raise children on these little boxes.
- I mean they would die before they were four,
but you could.
- Hey, four... good years.
(John laughing)
(James cackles)
- Oh my God, it's so funny.
Can you just explain these to us real quick?
- What are these? - I don't understand.
- My tiny female brain doesn't get it.
- Explain mansplaining to me now.
Because I know, I just want to make sure you do.
- They're minty.
- These are fab.
- Palate cleanser.
- I think that might be the nicest thing
you've ever done for me, Colin.
Leave the mints 'til the end.
- You need them to cleanse your palate after that.
- Yeah, they are good.
- The other stuff.
- I can't wait to get to this point in the video.
You're going to see such a drop in viewers.
And comments at this point of the video,
with guys being like, "oh, fucking ridiculous."
- You do see it a lot in YouTube comments.
And online, you see a lot of mansplaining.
- [Seán] We don't have to tell you
what these are for. The next time some random dude
starts explaining something to you,
just offer him one of these mints.
Then he can explain to you why these mints
aren't funny and that not all men do it.
Especially great for business conferences and blind dates.
- That's telling you, isn't it?
- It's a good selling point.
- It's clever, it's marketing, is what it is.
Oh, I just mansplained it, didn't I?
I just mansplained it there.
- I don't know if it's just me
But I feel like a slight oppressive flavour.
It's like pressing down hard on my taste buds.
And I'm finding it hard to reach above that taste.
If you get me.
- They're good for cleaning your palate,
from that assault of the senses.
- They're a lovely mint. They're
exactly what I wanted after all the stuff
that we were previously eating.
- Careful. Careful. Yeah.
Ah, your nails were perfect for picking that up.
Thank God, you have nails.
- Thank you.
- I know it must slow you down when you're typing but...
- [Colin] I look forward to people
not getting the joke and being like.
"James is so mean to MC."
- That's every video I'm in.
That's every video I'm in, they're like.
"I don't like James, he's mean."
- I do that to every one though,
I've made the point before in a previous video.
- Yeah.
- I'm an equal opportunity 'splainer.
I'm not sexist, I'm condescending.
And there is a difference.
- Yeah, it's not that you think you're better
than women, you think you're better than.
- Everyone, yeah. - Everyone, yeah.
- I do that for everybody.
- I mean, I don't know if you have noticed
but Mary- Claire had like three of those.
I'm still having one.
You might want to slow down and watch your figure.
- I am surrounded by men like this every day.
- They're exactly what I wanted after
all the stuff we were previously eating,
so I give them a ten for them coming in at the right time.
- Yeah, ten is a number. Ten comes before eleven.
- [Seán] What's the mint like?
Is it spearmint? Peppermint?
- It's your average mint.
- I'm not going to go there.
I'm not going to be complicit
in having myself edited to a small bit
at the end going.
"Well this is what it actually tastes like."
Cause that's what you're trying to do to me!
You sneaky dog.
- I think that all the sweets had great potential,
if they were in a bin. So.
(James laughing)
- Absolutely fair.
- Scientific progress.
- I'm astounded that they managed to
get the flavours so bloody accurate.
- They weren't that enjoyable but...
- They did exactly what they said on the tin.
- Ooh. Very good.
