- Oh! - The exact opposite
of what I thought it was going to be! - Of what you'd actually think!
- Oh my... (Carlos gasps)
- This tastes like one of those weird juice cleanses that people do.
- Oh, I love! - The first stage, of course.
- Okay, there it is, the iconic mushroom.
- Iconic, obviously.
- I would like to eat the one with the faces.
- It's gotta be a mushroom.
It's gotta be like a giant mushroom or something.
- Yes, Mario 64!
- I love it, it's so much nostalgia!
- Just the sounds alone, it's just like ugh!
- Yeah.
- (PvF) Today, we are doing a Try Not To Eat.
- Oh! - Huh.
- (PvF) All of the foods are inspired by the Super Mario franchise.
- This is gonna be so hard, this isn't fair!
- (PvF) If you can resist all of the foods,
you will get a delicious prize at the end,
but for every food you do try,
you'll have to take a bite of our punishment food.
- Oof.
- Oh my God! - (laughs) What?
- (PvF) This is the Super Mushroom pizza biscuit,
inspired by the mushrooms that make Mario grow.
This mushroom is made with a buttery biscuit
stuffed with all of your favorite pizza toppings.
- Oh, it's stuffed! (laughs)
- I'm about to be stuffed in a minute!
- It's got a little face. See, I told you!
- It does have a face!
- There's a face on it? It's got a face!
Whoa, whoa, oh my God.
- And I like how you did the little bits of cheese as the dots,
and the marinara sauce as the coloring.
- It smells so good. I want to eat it!
- I gotta like pick it back up.
Well, if I pick it up, I'm gonna eat it.
Now I have to do it, I have to do it.
I'm sorry, I already picked it up, there's nothing I can do anymore!
- (Matthew) Eat it! (buzzer rings)
- Oh, I need self control,
because if I already give up on this first try,
like, I'm just screwed for the remainder of this challenge.
(buzzer rings) - Oh!
- I'm not gonna eat you! No no no!
- (Carlos) It's so cute!
- I think I'll be okay not eating it.
- Not gonna be okay not eating it, but I really want to
make it til the end to see the surprise.
- (PvF) How do you like the inside?
- Mmm. - That is so good!
- I don't know, it just seems kinda messy,
and I think I'll be okay not eating it.
- Oh, it's messy, but it's good. - (Matthew) Mmm!
- Honestly, it's so cute I'm not gonna eat it
just because it's so cute!
- This was too cute for me not to eat it.
- It was too cute!
- No. - Pass!
- Keep it strong, I'm definitely gonna pass.
Super Mario World.
- The feather? It can't be the feather!
- That little pumpkin looks delicious.
- Yeah.
- I'm trying to think of like what food it would be though.
- They must be doing something feather inspired.
- Oh my God, these sounds are so nostalgic to me.
- It's a leaf, not a leaf, it's a feather!
(Carlos laughs)
- Even those clouds look good.
Now I'm just thinking like food, like ugh, it all looks good.
- Okay. - Now I just want to play video games.
- Aw. (laughs)
- Ooh, they smell really sweet.
- It looks like the actual power up.
- (PvF) This Cape Feather cookie inspired by the Cape Feather,
which made its first appearance in Super Mario World
is a perfectly baked sugar cookie topped with royal icing.
- The fact that our producer made all of this,
I already know it's bomb!
- I love cookies, and sugar cookies are my favorite.
- Really? - (laughs) Yeah.
- Oh shoot.
- I already know that I have to do the punishment.
It's how many bites we have to take of that,
and I'm like, I've had a sugar cookie with royal icing.
- I am drooling!
- If I'm gonna lose,
I wanna loose to something salty and savory.
Like now I'm kinda regretting not eating that pizza. (laughs)
It smells so good, I want to eat it!
- Mmm, I can smell it! - It looks soft, and it smells good.
- You can smell it all you want, this is great.
- No.
- I think I'm okay not eating this actually.
- Like you're really like... (claps hands)
(both laugh)
- Yeah, I'm gonna pass, I'm gonna be a strong girl.
- Yeah okay, nope.
- I feel like my stomach can resist thus far.
Oh the flower, it's gotta be the flower.
- The flower, oh my God.
- Flower. - Fire Flower!
- (gasps) Something spicy!
- I feel like it would be spicy.
- I love Smash Bros. - I live.
- See now I just wanna play Smash Bros.
- Oh, Smash, I know right?
- Whoa, that's intense, man. - Yeah.
- Also, they're playing as Wario, I love playing as Wario.
- Ooh, or maybe it's like one of those,
you know at those fancy restaurants, they have those flambe,
where it's like a dessert, but they light it up?
- Oh, this looks so cute! - Oh my God, this is so cute!
- Aw! - The exact opposite
of what I thought it was going to be! - Of what you'd actually think!
- (PvF) So we went with a Fire Flower fruit platter,
made with fresh juicy and sweet cut fruit,
served with a light, fluffy whipped topping,
and we promise it's far more delicious
than any flower Mario has ever eaten in the games.
(Matthew laughs)
- I actually don't like pineapple. (Emily laughs)
So, I'm good not eating this one.
- Oh, it is delicious. Honeydew is disgusting.
(Matthew laughs) But... (laughs)
- I love this, this is honestly,
probably one of the hardest episodes I've ever done
to actually try and not eat it.
- Number one thing though,
I don't know how it is that you cut this so perfectly.
- This belongs in a museum. - It does, this is so cute.
- But the detail in the leaves. - In the leaves!
- And I love how they even did the etching
to make it look like leaves.
- I think it's easy for me to pass just because I know what
all of these fruits taste like. - Yeah.
- I grew up on Mario, so it's like seeing all this iconic stuff,
and it just makes it more appealing for me to try,
but then again, I want to win. - They're so cute!
- I think I can resist this. We're standing strong!
- Mm-hmm.
- And honestly, it's a work of art, so would we do this to the Mona Lisa?
No!
- He's so cute! - (laughs) Yoshi!
- (gasp) We're eating eggs!
- I love his little huh, huh! - Yup.
- The little noises, I love them.
- The egg. - Oh, it's eggs.
- [Censored].
- This is gonna be my downfall. - Yeah.
- This is probably where I give in.
- I love eggs. - Will it be egg themed?
- They can make something so good out of an egg.
- Oh, I miss this game! - They have so many ideas.
- Oh my God! - What?
- Oh! - No!
- Look at the little eggs!
Wow, look at the detail!
- I am so dead.
- (PvF) This is inspired by one of the coolest
and cutest characters in the Super Mario universe.
This Yoshi Egg sando is made with kewpie,
tamago salad, and decked out with a kawaii quail egg.
It'll transport you right to the train stations in Japan,
and tastes amazing.
- Dude, I love this.
I think I'm gonna have a bite.
- Yeah, I'm eating this one right now. - I love egg salad, I have to eat it.
- There's no way!
- It's just too cute, I gotta get a picture of this.
Just stand by everybody.
- So what are the little orange and green toppings?
- (PvF) Bell pepper and spinach.
- The sandwich, I think I'm just gonna go first for the sandwich.
(buzzer rings)
- Mmm!
- I don't mind taking the punishment for it after.
- You're crazy!
(buzzer rings)
- Mmm.
- Mm-hmm, Mm-hmm-hmm! Mmm!
- CJ, just eat it.
- I think one of 'em's about to hatch, actually,
so we should let it go do its thing, you know what I mean?
- Whatever punishment that's coming to me, it's worth it.
- I feel like when you get an egg salad sandwich,
it's gotta be like the cheapest white bread,
just spongy soft.
- No, I think I'm actually okay. Thank you though.
- Ready.
- (PvF) How hard is it for you to pass this one up?
- I'm hungry! - All of 'em are hard!
- (PvF) Congratulations Lydon, you were able to avoid
eating some of the coolest looking foods we've had on the show.
And for that, you've earned yourself a delicious prize.
- Oh my God, I'm so excited for it. - I'm so excited!
- Is it a kitty? You're gonna eat a kitty!
- It's gotta be like a cube.
- You're just gonna give us dollars? - Coins, I love kitty Mario!
- It's a cube with like coins in it, yeah.
- Or is it the coins?
(Carlos gasps) - Stop, stop!
- Yes! - Stop, thank you.
- (PvF) I hope you're in the mood for sweets,
because you've earned yourself your very own Coin Box cake
taken right out of the Mushroom Kingdom.
- It felt like sprinkles. Is it like little stars?
Is that what it is?
- Oh my... (Carlos gasps)
- Oh, it's gold! It's little gold coins!
This is so dope! Are you kidding?
- (Carlos) So cool!
- (George) That's so dope! Look at that!
- Whatever it is, you put crack in it. This is good.
- Next time you have a dinner party, I better be listed at that.
I'll skip the club for that.
- (PvF) So do you feel like this was a good reward
for not eating the other foods? - Absolutely, mm-hmm.
- It's cute too, so...
- (PvF) Unfortunately, you were tempted by our
Super Mario inspired foods... (Bowser laughs)
So you must suffer the consequences.
- You have to eat a motorcycle. - Okay, that doesn't look too bad.
- This is Rainbow Road. Squid Ink!
No, what!?
- Oh, it's ink! - Squid!?
- I like squid!
- I like squid, I like squid ink pasta.
- But obviously, it's not gonna taste good.
- Uh yeah, it has to be squid ink something,
which you know what? I'm totally prepared,
'cause I eat squid ink all the time!
- (PvF) Straight from Blooper's butt,
you'll get to dig in to a pile of squid ink mashed potatoes!
- It's just, it's just ink.
- What do you think it is? It can't be real squid ink.
- Doesn't this look so good?
- Oh, I just wanna lick it up.
- (PvF) So it's two licks apiece.
- (laughs) It actually smells like ketchup.
- It smells, I don't... - It kinda smells like a condiment.
I don't know, I'm getting like... - It does!
- Alright, well here it goes. Ah, oh!
Whoa, I wish I didn't do that. (laughs)
Tartar sauce? (laughs)
- Ew!
- I got like for a second, like pickle.
- Yeah, there's like a, there's something.
- Like tart or sour. - There's some vinegary.
- In fact, you should actually have some
with your buttercream cake.
- I actually could, oh yeah, let me dip it in there.
- Oh yeah, are you sure that's enough? Are you sure you don't want more?
- Mm!
- Okay, we have to do one more.
Alright, I'm going in.
We're going thick.
You said there's potato in this?
- Um, this tastes like one of those weird juice cleanses that people do.
- Between getting to have the Pizza Mushroom
and having to do this... - It was all worth it.
- Worth it.
- That was a really fun challenge.
- Yeah, it was pretty dope.
- No, this one was so fun.
I think this was my favorite Try Not To challenge I've ever done.
- I love this.
