Good mythical morning!
Thank you for making us a part of your daily routine
and as a reward, you get to watch me
turn into a human tea bag, literally.
We're also gonna play an Olympic face guessing game later.
Yes, and the Olympics are a time where
the entire world unites for some healthy competition.
Mm-hmm.
Nothing can unite the world like that,
except maybe McDonald's.
Now, if you're travelling around the world
and you're a picky eater like Link,
there's probably a McD's you can pop right into.
And while most McDonald's have the staples
that I can count on,
they also incorporate some local flavors.
into their international McDonald's menu,
so we're gonna see if we can tell what country
a McDonald's menu item comes from.
It's time for...
Mythical chefs Tess and Josh
have painstakingly recreated McD menu items
for us to sample and they're used
as many real McDonald's ingredients as possible.
Uh, we didn't have them shipped, in other words.
- Right. - We are going to taste them
and then guess what country they came from
- by throwing a dart. - ( Chase whimpering )
I'm just touching the dart, Chase.
By throwing them at this...
Don't even gesture with the darts, man.
The map over there.
When did you get those practive throws
before we started without a dart.
- So nerve racking. - Flashbacks.
Uh, resident cartographer, Chase, will measure
the distance the dart to the correct answer,
that score will become the points that you get.
The lowest score at the end wins.
Now, since Link has done so horribly
at this game in the past,
- and even lost when we've - Oh, yeah?
when we've given him advantages sometimes.
You're gonna get two advantages today, Link.
You're gonna get the fart which is throwing four darts,
but we're calling it the McFart.
- Okay. - And you're also gonna get
the Quarter Darter with Cheese,
where on the last round, you literally get to take
a burger patty covered in ketchup
and throw it at the dart board,
and we're gonna measure the distance
from the closest ketchup to the right answer.
- Okay. - You cannot lose this, man!
- Link: I don't need-- - I want you to win!
I don't need your pity handicaps.
- Yes, I do. - And the winner gets to eat
a McDonald's item from a fictional place...
"West-theros."
Westoros.
"Game of Thrones," you've heard of it.
Westeros.
Westeros is where I hang out.
Let's do this!
( music playing )
Let's see our first item.
What is it? Ooh...
- It immediately looks-- - Rhett: Is that a giant Filet-O-Fish?
Link: Mm. There's no cheese,
which Filet-O-Fish has cheese usually.
Hm.
- It's all cheese. - Is it all the way through?
The whole freaking thing is cheese.
It's a Filet-O-Fish, minus the fish,
with the cheese that looks like the fish.
It's good, man.
Who doesn't love cheese?
I'ma let you go first because I'm a gentleman
- it also gives me an advantage. - Hm.
- I need all I can get. - Man, this is tough, fried cheese.
'Cause fried cheese is typically a European thing.
There's the Netherlands.
I don't know how I fell about this.
This cheese seems like that Indian cheese,
- paneer, you know what I'm saying? - Oh!
That you can like get at the Indian restaurants.
Go for it, man.
I don't know, I don't feel good about this
but I'm going for India.
And I hit Russia, like always.
Well, it's a big place, hard not to hit.
Um, paneer I don't think is fried like that.
Ooh, we went to that one restaurant though.
That one restaurant, remember that--
No one know what you're talking about.
You know what? I think you're right
and I'm going right for India.
- Ooh! A little low. - Rhett: Okay, we've got India surrounded.
- Link: We're we right? - Stevie:
a patty made from fried paneer cheese
found in a non-beef eating country of India.
- Ah! - You nailed it.
All right, who was closer?
Rhett had 16 and Link had 12.
- Yeah! - Oh, nice start, Link.
I take the early lead.
Darren don't look so surprised over there.
- ( laughs ) - He was all....
( music playing )
Let's see what we hae in here.
Ooh, fries.
- Mm, fries with gravy. - Link: Is it gravy?
- Mm. - I don't know why we don't do this.
Link: Now, if I'm not mistaken,
- this is what they call poutine. - Yeah.
Link: And this is a Canadian treat.
Maybe poutine's big somewhere else?
Maybe poutine's big in Australia.
You gotta think about these things because--
Oh, yeah.
Canadians and Australians have similar tastes.
Like, the one's has vegemite,
and one has the other one.
You know what? I'm glad you told me that.
And you're exactly wrong.
Canada, come home to daddy.
Ooh! I hit Canada!
You actually hit Canada.
There's a lot of it, but I did it.
Link, this may be your day,
because this is definitely Canada,
I was just trying to throw you off.
Uh, you gotta move, I-- I--
you are so much closer, you also have an advantage
every round because you're closer to the board.
You care if I lean on you?
You can't, you gotta, you gotta--
I'm gonna get up here to Link distance.
Oh, this is so easy. ( laughs )
Well, your arm is twice as long as mine, too.
Are we right?
Stevie:
But poutine has cheese and these don't have cheese.
These are gravy loaded fries, uh, from Australia.
Oh! Dang it!
Are you serious?
Ah! I should have listened to myself, joking.
All right, Link, you had 76, and Rhett, you had 80.
Oh, I'm falling behind.
Yeah.
( music playing )
Okay, nice little wrapper.
It's another Filet-O-Fish.
Link: There's some spicy mustard,
- Mustard sauce? - Link: on this.
Rhett; Hold on, it's got a pocket,
it's like a hot pocket.
- Oh, whoa. - What is that, some sort of like--
I don't know, but it's so good.
It's-- it's uh... it's oozy and gushy.
It's meat, it's another kind of meat.
Inside something else.
It's gravy in a meat
that's been deep fried.
Is that chicken on the outside?
No, it's just breading.
What is that? What is it?
Excuse me while I eat this entire thing.
- ( laughter ) - You love it?
I don't love this one. It's too rich.
You don't love it?
I'm a little bit afraid
that there's something I don't like in it
and I just like it accidentally.
I feel like the gravyish meat thing,
like the creamy meat is not an Asian thing.
I don't think they would do that there.
Again, I just feel like this is a European approach to something
and my only option for that is Netherlands.
- Ooh! - ( grunts )
- Let go a little soon on that. - Yeah, high.
I think this is a mayonnaise filled fried patty.
with mustard on it.
There's no place on earth where they love mayonnaise
- more than-- - On what? Urst?
Urst. Westoros. Than the Netherlands.
You're using all my reasoning.
You're just going for the same countries I'm going for.
But, it could be Uruguay.
Could be Venezuela
and it could be Malaysia,
those four choices lead me to pull
further ahead with my McFart.
( laughs )
Oh, yeah, I forgot. You do have that.
So I'm throwing four darts
and I'm gonna splay them across the board--
- Okay, everybody out. - centering on Netherlands.
- Everybody out. - And I'm gonna go Malaysia, Netherlands, Uruguay,
and then the fourth one is just a wild cards.
Splay it out.
- Ooh! - Yeah.
- Okay. - Nowhere near the Netherlands or any of them.
- But I'm close to Uruguay. - All right, what is it?
This is the McCroquette.
It's a croquette with Ragu, and pieces of pure beef
topped with mustard, and they offer it in the Netherlands.
- ( laughs ) - We had the freaking croquets.
- Yes, we did, man. - I didn't know this was a croquet,
it was too flat.
- It's good. - It's not great.
If I could just throw a dart, I'd be pulling way ahead.
All right, Rhett you had 15 and Link, you had 18.
- Oh. - It's so close.
( music playing )
I'll unwrap this present.
There's some sesame seeds on this joint.
This one is deep fried.
Why is everybody doing the same thing
all around the world.
Got some sort of hot mayonnaise,
and then this-- ooh, my goodness.
This blackness.
What is that? Just gotta eat it to find out.
'Cause it-- ooh! The middle's the wild card.
- That's fish. - Rhett: Yeah, that is fish.
Link: That is-- oh, it's shrimp.
- It's shrimp? - This is a shrimp burger.
- This is an amazing idea. - It's pretty good.
I was wondering why it was tasting--
it was fish but it didn't taste bad.
It's got whole shrimp in there.
Look at that!
I don't know what the black stuff is.
You're up first, Link.
McD's bring that to America.
Well, this is clearly-- I don't know.
Shrimp are everywhere.
They're around everything.
Shrimp are around everything.
When humans congregate in watered areas,
shrimp also congregates.
This is tough. I don't think this is Japan.
It's very Americanized.
Like, the fact that I like it
surprises that this would be in Japan or Malaysia.
I'm gonna split the difference,
put my dart right in between the two.
A lot of water over there.
Whoops.
Whoa-ho-ho! So, you're in Australia?
You may, so you may, if it's Australia,
you've got that round.
It's not Australia.
Australia's already been. We thought it was Canada.
So what do you think this is?
I think it's Malaysia or Japan,
because of the black, um-- spicy first of all
and it's got the black sauce.
I don't they would do that anywhere else.
It's like a shrimp po-boy,
it should be like New Orleans.
I'm gonna say Malaysia, 'cause I just feel like
there's more shrimp around Malaysia.
Well, there's not as much surface area.
Whoa! You've really nailed Malaysia.
Stevie:
which translates to Filet-O-Shrimp,
a shrimp patty, breaded and fried,
and served up hot and fresh in...
Japan.
- Japan. - Oh!
So, you have won this round clearly
by how much? This is putting you in the lead.
I'm in the lead going into the last round, buddy.
All right, that was 10 for Rhett and 19 for Link.
- Hm. - Ah.
( music playing )
Okay, coming down to the last round.
Uh, I'm up by how many? Four?
- Yeah. - Stevie: Four.
This is such a close game.
- Mm-hmm. - Now just keep in mind,
that you're gonna throw a whole burger
Yup, I've saved it.
And anywhere that ketchup goes,
- Right, I've got my... - we're gonna measure from there.
My quarter darder with cheese.
Um, this is ice cream on top of a--
it's like a McGriddle situation.
- Ice cream, caramel. - Mm, that's good
- Oh. - That is really good.
Hold on. Could it be that inside of this pancake.
- there is peanut butter? - No.
Because if it is, this is where I'm moving.
- Now... - It's not peanut butter.
- What is it? - We learned from Josh
that this is dulce de-- what did you call it?
- Dulce de leche? - Dulce de leche?
- Josh: Allegedly. - Uh-huh.
And that my friends is in South America.
'Cause we dipped the churro in it,
- that's when we learned. - Mm-hmm.
But is it Venezuela or Uruguay.
I feel like I've got to nail whatever it is.
Yeah, you do, Rhett.
I have to make-- I just have to make a choice.
'Cause your burger is gonna be so...
can you move over just a little bit?
- This way? - Just a little bit.
Let me--
I'm going all in for Uruguay.
I'm going all in.
Ah.
Link: Oh! So close to the wrong answer, hopefully.
- ( grunts ) - All right.
What's happening with my darts today.
Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to elect to use my...
Both: Quarter Darter with cheese.
Where's the cheese.
- There is no cheese. - There's no cheese.
- I feel ripped off. - There is no cheese.
This is just a quarter darter.
- All right. - This is really good.
Now, Chase, you can stay there.
There's no pointy parts to the Quarter Darter.
Yeah, okay.
So are you just gonna aim to the middle of the map
and hope you were right?
I'm gonna hit Venezuela
and then it's gonna slide slowly down the map
all the way across Uruguay,
knocking your dart off
insuring my win either way.
What if it's Saudi Arabia,
they're decadent there.
Link: Well, then, I'm still closer to it.
'Cause I could just default the game entirely
and just aim smack dab at Chase.
( laughs )
But of course, if any ketchup comes off of him
and it hits the map, it counts.
The problem is, I want to splat it and slide it.
Splat it, slide it.
Venezuela to Uruguay.
- Oh, really. - Here we go-- oh.
- Some on my hand now. - Oh, you're losing some.
Oh, no! You can't-- No!
Well, I don't know what the rules are for this.
Oh, you can't reapply ketchup.
All right, here we go.
- ( laughter ) - ( Rhett laughs )
The crazy thing is there's ketchup pretty close to Uruguay,
Uru-gai, Uru-guai, or however you say it.
Link: Yeah, yeah, closer than you.
Okay, what's the answer?
Stevie:
a pancake stuffed with Dulce De Leche,
topped with ice cream, and more Dulce De Leche,
served up in Uruguay.
Yes! Oh, gosh! Oh, gosh!
- Hold on! - Hold on, Chase.
- What's gonna happen! - Oh, no!
Where is my close-- point to my closest ketchup.
- Straight above. - I think it's that one.
But it could be that little dot, too.
Measure 'em both.
Uh, you have to get four better than me, to win.
Take me to Westeros. I want to dine at McD's.
This is gonna be so crazy.
Rhett, you have four, and Link, you have three.
Which means that overall,
- ( laughs ) - Rhett...
Whoo! Yes!
Yes!
The dark Gods once again shine upon me,
in the most amazing way possible.
Man, I feel bad. I'm sorry.
You know, I feel bad--
you know, you can't, you couldn't write it better than this.
I mean, really.
You know what would make me feel better?
Becoming a human tea bag.
( laughs )
Well, let's do that.
