Simon: So you might have seen our video.
|Flashback| S & M: Sake KitKats.
S: These are KitKats made with zero point eight percent (0.8%) alcohol. |End Flashback|
Well, it turns out that KitKat Japan saw that video as well,
and they liked it, and then they mailed us an entire box full of really bizarre and rare KitKats
that you can get from around Japan and different prefectures and cities and whatnot.
Martina: What's so cool about it is that this isn't the kind of thing that you can buy in the airport.
S: No. M: You actually have to go to the prefecture in Japan - S: Yup - to get it.
M: What we're gonna do is dig our hands into this bag. S: Yup
M: We're gonna pull out a random flavour. We're gonna eat it and see if we can figure it out.
S: And then afterwards, we'll show you the box and see if we actually get it right.
*Ukelele solo*
S: I got the first one. M: Okay. S: Alright. I'm opening it up.
Oooh. M: Will you open it for me? S: Individual packets.
S: Alright. You've got one hand. Let me open it for you, gurl. *Martina makes growling noises*
Here's yours. M: Thank you.
S: Here's mine. M: I smelled it - OH GOD I CHEATED
What colour is it? Oooh it's pink. S: It's pink. M: Are we allowed to look at it?
M: Did you say we couldn't? *Simon mumbles*
M: Too late! Just eat it! S: There's no rules - okay.
M: (old man voice) Well, we're off to a great start.
M: Ummmm S: Uhhh - I think I know this flavour.
M: It just tastes like white chocolate with carrot or something.
S: It definitely has a white chocolate flavour but this also tastes like...
I'm not sure if they do the same thing here in Japan. Sweet potato?
M: Oh yeah. It's got that mousse-y... S: Tastes like those sweet potato mousse...
M: Mmhmm. Taste and stuff like that. S: Lattes that we used to have.
S: Hmmm. M: Mmhmm.
S: Martina guesses white chocolate and carrot. Who has the more robust - M: No!
M: That's not my guess! My guess is sweet potato as well now that you've said it.
S: You can't copy my guess. M: Who would be like, "Umm, white chocolate and carrot KitKat?"
S: So these are... M: Oh this is definitely sweet potato.
S: Aah yeah. These are the Sweet Potato KitKats right here. M: They're purple.
S: You can see that these are 'Beni-imos', and these are from the Okinawa-Kyushu Edition.
M: I really didn't like them that much. S: ONE Spudgy out of five. (1/5)
M: I just, I don't want you trying to shove a vegetable into my desserts. You know what I mean?
S: Sweet potato, come on. We know that you're a potato. You're not a dessert. M: You're good as a potato.
*sombre music*
M: Okay I'm not looking. S: I've got another box.
S: Don't look, you cheater. M: I'm closing my eyes because I am a cheater.
S: You're definitely a cheater. Oh. I can smell this one already.
M: Okay. Whoa. Smells like watermelon. S: Very fruity.
M: Umm. Definitely some kind of fruit. S: This one's really good.
S: I'm gonna have another just for science. M: Is there booze in this?
S: IS THERE ALCOHOL IN HERE?!
M: This tastes to me - this smacks of boozy, my friend. Wait a second. Are you double eating your bars?
S: No I -
S: The gap in between... M: You're can't do that! You have to break it in half. It's the rule of KitKat.
S: I think I know this flavour. M: What do you - what's your guess?
S: What's your guess first? 'Cause I don't want you stealing my answer.
M: 'Kay. Ready? Three, two, one. Rum (&) raisin. S: Apple.
M: Oh. We're WAY off. Okay. Let's find out.
S: This is.. Aha! The Shinshu Apple. M: Shinshu is such a cute name.
S: I don't know where Shinshu is is Japan. M: As you can tell, my palate is really refined lately.
S: Shinshu is... Hehe. Carrots and white chocolate? M: I don't know. Carrots and white chocolate?
S: Whoa. This one was actually really good. They've got really nice packaging.
M: Don't keep eating it, mister. You can eat more later. S: They've got gold on them and everything. M: Oooh.
S & M: GOOOOOOOLD.
S: I like this one. I would give this a three point five out of five. (3.5/5) M: I would give this a two. (2/5)
S: REALLY?! M: Yeah.
S: You like it better than the vegetable one at least. M: I like it better than (the) vegetable one.
M: Fruits are acceptable because I'm a pie person. I think I just - I want chocolate - I just want chocolate.
I don't want anyone hiding things in there. S: No. STOP HIDING YOUR HEALTHY SH*T IN MY CHOCOLATE, ALRIGHT?!
S: And the next one the list is...
M: Once. Yup. S: Here's half for you.
Here's half for me. M: It's like your fancy girl(?).
S: This one's chocolate coloured. M: Mmhmm.
S: I'm very perceptive, aren't I? I think this is KitKat flavoured.
M: NO. S: What is it? M: There's a leftover flavour on your tongue.
M: Right? S: Like oldness. M: Like old mushroom *laughs*
S: These are mushroom KitKats!
M: What is that? S: Nope. I can only taste mushrooms now.
(Simon attempts to smell own breath)
M: Breathe in my mouth! *laughs* S: Breathe in my mouth! (Martina tries but fails)
S: HAPPINESS!
M: I really don't know. This just tastes like dark chocolate. S: Let me taste it.
M: I think they might just be dark chocolate.
*intense breathing*
M: You can't just breathe on me when I breathe on you and vice versa.
*even more intense breathing*
S: It's KitKat. M: I think that this might be a dark chocolate KitKat... with mushroom.
*laughs*
S: Dark chocolate. Oh. M: Dark chocolate mushroom. That's my guess. What is it?
S: So these are the Azuki Sand Aji. Red Bean Sandwich.
M: Oh. S: I don't taste any red -
S: You know... aah. M: Now you say it, that's the 'mushroom' flavour.
M: Okay. So, I actually like these ones the most so far. S: Really?! These are my least favourite
'cause it tastes like old.
S: Old and mushroom. M: You know what it is?
S: WE DESCRIBED IT. The first two things - old mushroom.
How can you like this one the most?
M: I would give this a three out of five. (3/5) S: Probably a two out of five. (2/5)
M: Aah. S: This doesn't pass these tests for me.
M: It's good for me.
S: AND THE NEXT BOX IS... I GOT A SMALL BOX!
M: You know what I think is funny? If this was North America we might not have thought that it was
old mushroom flavour but because it's Japan we're like, "It could be."
S: I know exactly what this is. This is childhood. M: Oh this is strawberry.
S: This is -
S: That's a dayum fine strawberry. M: That's great. That's a five out of five right there. (5/5)
S: You know what this tastes like? When you were a kid and you've got those tubs of neapolitan ice cream
and you would just scoop the strawberry flavour out and you leave the chocolate and vanilla behind.
M: No one did that. Everyone scooped out the chocolate and vanella and left the strawberry behind.
S: No. Whoa. M: Whoa, guys. Let us know down in the comments section below:
Did you abandon the strawberry or did you abandon the chocolate and vanella?
'Cause NOBODY abandons chocolate and vanella.
S: What's this one right here? Oh this is Strawberry Maple.
M: You know? There was a hint of something else in there. You know what I thought it was?
I thought it was strawberry + condensed milk.
S: I thought it was just strawberry ice cream. I don't taste any maple in here.
M: Uh, our Canadian side is showing. Using my Canadian beaver senses to see if I can taste maple.
S: No, there's no maple in here. There's just delicious strawberry ice cream.
S: Five out of five. (5/5) M: Five out of five. (5/5)
S: This is the best one.
THIS ONE IS... Oh these are white ones.
So this is white chocolate, the WORST kind of chocolate.
M: Oh. That smells like booze.
M: That's - this is what I thought it was before.
Easy guess on this one. S: Oh no.
This is rum & raisin. M: Immediate - rum raisin.
M: Immediately, rum raisin. S: Rum & raisin ice cream.
M: I don't like rum raisin ice cream but this is a good KitKat.
S: YOU DON'T LIKE RUM & RAISIN ICE CREAM?! M: No.
S: REALLY?! This is great.
M: What are you, 90?
S: NO. I remember when I used to like have it as a kid, my brother would always get it.
M: You had rum raisin AS A KID?!
S: Yes, because I felt that I was too young to drink alcohol but I can have rum & raisin ice cream.
M: And was it good? S: It was great. M: No, it wasn't. It was a lie.
S: I love rum & raisin ice cream.
M: Rum & raisin tastes a little bit like butterscotch but something a bit better.
This one's great. Is it rum & raisin? S: This is Rum & Raisin. This is the Tokyo Edition.
M: These are really good. I give this a five out of five (5/5) too.
S: I would give this a - which one do you like more so far? The strawberry or this one?
M: Oooh. But they're different feelings. S: They are different feelings.
M: I would like this one with a coffee and I would like the strawberry one for dessert.
S: If you had to only eat one for the rest of your life, which one would it be?
M: Why are you picking that now? Why can't you pick it at the end?
S: Well, becau - augh, fine. We'll pick it later at the end.
S: I wonder what flavour this one is. M: Whoa. Did you smell it?
S: OHHHHH. M: WHOAAAA.
M: Smells like a Creamsicle. S: OH -
S & M: EEEEEEEEEEH?!
EEEEEEEEEEH...
EEEEEEEEEEH?!
S: This is definitely number one right now.
M: Wow. S: Orange Creamsicle - what is this?
M: This is number one for me too.
S: This is Kankitsu Ogon Blend. So this is - you like my accent, don't you?
M (mockingly): "Kankatsu Ogon Bland!"
S: You've got lime, orange, and lemon in here.
This is unbelievably great. M: Amazing.
When you bite into it, it tastes like a creamy orange, and the next bite, you get punched with a bit of lemon.
S: You know what? This actually has the aftertaste... M: So it's actually tart.
M: See what I mean?
You gotta eat it slowly. What you did was this - *BLAARGH* What I did was this - *tit tit*
No, DUCKY!!
You have to nibble the tip and you go, "Mmm. Creamsicle." And then you nibble the next part.
DUCKY!!
*laughs*
No, DUCKY!!
DUCKY!!
*keeps laughing*
DUCKY!! I now control the box.
Number one right now. S: Six out of five (6/5) for this one.
M: Six out of five. (6/5) S: This is the best KitKat ever made.
From Shikoku. 'Kay. We need to go to Shikoku. M: Shikoku, where you at?
S: I just 'Shikoku'd my pants. This is so great. (Martina laughs)
A little bit because of the crunch, it tastes like Fruity Pebbles Cereal at the same time.
M: Oh IT DOES.
S: You taste that? M: That's a great description.
S: Oh my gosh. That was great. We still have more boxes!
OH NO! WHITE ONES AGAIN!
M: Huh? Smells like milk cream, doesn't it?
M: Am... Am I eating butter?
Is this but - S: Yup.
Butter. Just butter.
M: Yup. This is butter. I mean, I like butter.
S: I LIKE BUTTER but I don't JUST want butter on my wafer.
M: This tastes like you're eating a croissant.
S: Gurl, have you ever had a croissant in your life?
Do you know what a croissant is? M: It's buttery.
S: No, it's - M: I give this a two out of five (2/5). Maybe a two point five (2.5/5).
You know what? I'm bumping it to a three for excitement.
S: Gurl, you're crazy. This is a zero point two (0.2/5). This is unenjoyable.
That Shikoku one, you eat, and you are just overflowing with happiness.
This is just like, "PIE??"
(Martina laughs) "PIE?!"
M: WHAA?!
S: TWO MORE BOXES LEFT! And the next one we have is...
M: IT'S WHITE! S: IT'S WHITE AGAIN!
M: Did we get double butter?
S: AWW DAYUM!!
I GOT TWO BUTTERS!! (hilarity ensues)
M: DOUBLE BUTTER! S: I DON'T KNOW WHY WE GOT TWO BUTTERS.
WHY DIDN'T I ORGANISE THIS BETTER?
*Martina laughs*
I change my score. Zero point one out of five. (0.1/5) I don't want it anymore.
Gargle with your coffee?
M: You know what they said?
"Oh, they're from North America. I'm sure they want double butter." S: "They must love butter."
S: And for this last one. M: BUTTER!
M: You get butter. S: It's not butter!
M: Oh. S: Oh. This is dark -
M: Ohhh. S: OHHH.
M: That's some really dark (chocolate). S: You know what this smells like?
This smells like those chocolate oranges you, like, get at Christmas
You gotta, like, slam them down. [[Terry's Chocolate Orange]]
M: It tastes like a chocolate orange.
S: Good chocolate orange.
M: Mm but the orange tastes darker than normal.
S: Dark chocolate orange. M: Usually... S: True!
S: Yes. M: You see what I'm saying?
S: It's not, like, milk chocolate. This is dark chocolate. M: Usually, when you have an orange chocolate,
it's sweet, orange flavour. S: Uhuh. M: This tastes a bit bitter.
It tastes like rum raisin orange chocolate.
S: This is Orange Cocktail Noir. M: OH!
S: Ohhh. There you go. M: That's probably the bitter part that I'm thinking of.
S: I would give this one a - M: I'm giving this a four point five (4.5/5).
S: - three point five (3.5/5) for me.
Okay. So if you had to rank your top three flavours, which ones would they be?
M: The orange one. That one, definitely. S: ORANGE ONE FOR SURE.
This Shikoku one is flawless. This is the best KitKat ever made.
Ooh, you can - OHHHH! I remember. These right here, they have little messages that you can write on the back
and you can give them to people. M: And you can share them with people?
S: Yeah, you're supposed to. You, like, write down a message like:
"Hey Johnny, I know you're having..."
M: DUCKY!
S: There goes my calorie intake for the day. M: Oh, ducky.
S: It's all just water and sadness from now on.
M: So I know we just had the chance to eat, like, crazy flavours
and some of you might have also had crazy flavours as well.
Let us know if you have had any awesome KitKat flavours,
and what kind you've had in the comments section below.
S: Hey! Did we try the Shikoku ones yet? I'm not sure.
M: Oh, that's so weird because we didn't. S: We need to try these.
M: I'm gonna take my one hand and I'm gonna throw it into the - NO I CAN'T.
S: To our dog? M: 'Cause Spudgy will go,
Spudgy: GOT IT! S: He's gonna eat it.
M: He'll just catch it.
Sp: Whoa. What was that? Was that food for the Spudgy?
I'm gonna go back to sleep.
And dream about that food. Aah.
Yeah. Food.
Aah food.
