today we let her rip on every flavor of
kettle chip let's talk about that
[Music]
good mythical morning
since you asked kettle chips are thicker
and sturdier than the average potato
chip not a sponsor and it's not only
because the slices of potato are cut
thicker they're fried by being submerged
in a large vat of oil at lower
temperatures and stirred for a longer
period of time instead of moving through
an assembly line fryer at a high heat
that makes these kettle chips golden
crunchy little thick boys so they're not
made in a big special teapot
tall and stout
no i'm sorry to disappoint you link but
the kettle brand founder was actually
going to call them pot chips and then
decided that it didn't sound right and
that not only is a good joke it's also a
true fact huh it's more of a true fact
than a good joke pot chips
get it i mean yeah i got it
all right kettle chip does sound better
than pot chips but which kettle bread
potato chip flavor tastes better than
all the rest today we find out it's time
for gut check kettle brand potato chips
edition we're trying every available
flavor from kettlebrand chips all 25.
we're gonna both rate each chip on a
scale of one to one hundred based on our
initial gut reaction after tasting them
all the top four chips are gonna be
tasted and discussed with even more
scrutiny and i still have my third grade
scoring visual aid to help me along the
way i i'm growing very attached to this
thing we all are the absolute best
kettle chip will be declared the chip we
ship stevie let's put the kettle to the
metal gentlemen i have great news for
today's gut check because your palate
cleanser will be none other than your
favorite toppo chico
thank you
and we're going to jump right into it
with kettle brands classic chip flavors
starting with
regular unsalted
yes
i'm going to get the whole thing yeah
okay
i mean that's a good solid potato
crunchy not as salty as i would have
hoped 77 um
i'm gonna give it a 55.
sea salt
oh okay maybe this is
what i was looking for
that's better
82
yet definitely once you get that salt on
it
71
sea salt and vinegar oh my oh
all
right boom might be a perfect chip that
gives you a hit 96.
might be the biggest score i've ever
given anything that is good easily in
88.
less fat sea salt okay really
just as crunchy as all the other ones
the crunch is not the problem it's kind
of that taste it's i still it's better
than not good 51. yeah yep um
i would say 53 really not that much
different than the original honey dijon
oh interesting
a rig
oh wait
that is nice i like that
it's almost doing too much for me 75
no man i'm gonna give that a 80.
okay
i mean that's pretty close to 75.
you're the one hey you do you need to
look at my chart no i don't like
something it should go down this way the
chart is in here
sour cream and onion oh yeah
it's a lot more subtle than the lay sour
cream and onion it's got a nice
aftertaste
it's a solid chip
but i mean i it's a 72 for me
75
farm stand ranch
farms never had this
oh
they're bringing the ranch flavor the
farm stand it really hit my
farm stand what y'all doing at the farm
not standing around
you're putting a ranch on him chips
82
yeah
16-7
67. sixteen seven bourbon barbecue
bourbon barbecue
that's what you said
too much liquid smoke forty eight
thirty
backyard bbq uh-oh
this is more traditional barbecue it's
not bad
61. uh 45 right you don't like it i yeah
but just a little bit korean bbq
i'm listening
could i eat this in my backyard yeah
oh that's
there's a there's an um
interesting wow happening there oh
that's that's got to be an acquired type
of thing here you just can't you just
can't walk face-first into that one 1650
new york cheddar
well i got a little toppo chico back
okay wash
i like cheese i like new york it's not
overpowering
80.
you could you could eat a lot of these
yeah i could on a saturday night
uh
it's good i'm gonna give it a 70. it's
in the mix parmesan garlic oh
watch out
that's a little fluffier to you fluffy
airier
maybe i just got a weird chip no i i
think mine's a little fluffier like it
was a double layer no like a mattress
not that much i like that that is
nice maybe not good for the breath 73 75
jalapeno okay i know i like the
i just got an airy one sometimes the
kettle like a mattress it kind of
separates it like a foam like a memory
foam
not too spicy i like the subtlety of it
i want more spice than that disappointed
right now it's just enough spice to lead
to more 69
67
peppercini
is that like the little thing in the
pizza box yup yup okay
this is what i wanted
this is the flavor pack that i
him
to pack like this packed in there
from the jalapeno this is really
89. here's what's interesting about it
it's it's got a pepper kick and then
it's got a pickle kick the pepper and
the pickle pepper in the pickle brings
that favorite novel
um that's gonna i'm gonna get that to a
70.
and that concludes our classic
categories
all right take one now
gather yourself
this is a this is a good day for me yeah
i feel like i'm not gonna be sick later
and i love chips and the crunch the
chips and the crunch
well let's dive into our next category
favorite novel which is our crinkle cut
and organic chip category
starting with crinkle cut dill peckle
pickle pickle dill peckle give me that
packle i would like a peckle please ah
oh oh no almost too crunchy i like that
flavor though
i like a peckle kind of gimmicky to me
but i'll still give it a 60 85. whoa i
really like that
crinkle cut habanero lime
okay
you could build a freaking house with
these things they are so crunchy they
are stout like a siding like a spanish
style
roof
this one has the most spice of anything
we've tasted so far there's a kind of
complexity to this but the potato really
comes through as well it's interesting
that's fun what was it habanero lime and
i'm tasting the different layers it was
like a little i'm still on the journey
um
i've got to give that a surprising 71.
i'm going to give that a solid 79. i
didn't think i'd like it
crinkle cut salt and fresh ground pepper
just salt and pepper
that was a foggy
mine was folded too what do you think it
is about the way it's all corn they
haven't given us any foldies yet because
i'd get too excited about the folds the
pepper is strong in this one i'm a fan
of the black pepper
but i'm realizing
that it doesn't work it doesn't work i
actually don't think it works that much
you i wouldn't want to eat more than
four of these just so this is a you're a
four chip man i'm a 49 for this yeah i
like it better than that it's not great
but i'll give it a 65. crinkle cut
truffle and sea salt oh now we're
getting fancy truffle like pigs digging
for these
oh that's strong
your breath gonna be kicking with this
that's a really fancy chip y'all whoa
it's a great taste but again how many of
these could you eat more than four maybe
maybe nine
that's not kind of how that's not really
how i think about chips i'm going to
give it a score i've never given on a
gut check ever
59.
you're going on record i don't think
i've ever given a 59. i think this one's
it's just a number i didn't really think
about this is i think this is actually
great
78
crinkle cut himalayan salt oh this is
going to be in the himalaya
almost got your finger that time
basic can you taste the altitude
it just tastes a little bit like a
gimmick to me they've oversold this one
30.
it's not that it tastes bad it's just
that you're
you're reacting to the marketing you
feel like you want to be in the
himalayas and you're you're down here in
the foothills it's a good chip 66.
organic country style bbq
they got lots of types of barbecue
i'm not a barbecue i'm not a barbecue
chip guy well because barbecue
flavoring is trying to represent
something that is already a thing
you know what i'm saying
yeah it's fakey
it is fakie
um i do like country style i'm going to
sink it down to 33. i'll give it a 52.
organic salt and fresh ground pepper
organic salt and fresh ground pepper oh
it's for following again
i gotta tell you
they coordinated defaulties i can taste
that organic salt
it's not it's not been fertilized tastes
healthier no pesticides on those salt
plants and the pepper is better salt
comes from a plant the pepper is a lot
better
um isn't it weird that pepper
plant and salt is just a mineral but we
mix them together and act like nobody
says anything about it i wish you
wouldn't have told me that
now that's all i'm going to think about
because you're supposed to group them i
like that one
68
organic sea salt
i mean i can't taste the organs
can you i can taste the organic part of
the
ocean i believe it's the part of the
ocean right outside of the great pacific
garbage patch
i'm going to give you that on the
outskirts of it 56.
it's nice this is solid but i'm not
going to like write letters about it 63.
organic salt and vinegar okay here we go
my particular chip was disappointing the
chip is not as crunchy as the original
salt and vinegar which i gave it 96.
the flavor is on point but
you're right the chip is weird what
happened to the chip 81 um
60.
organic jalapeno
okay we didn't even like the real one of
this
flavor
is better than the regular jalapeno what
is happening in my mouth
78
um
66
and that concludes that category please
toppo chico it up if you would like did
you just use topo chico as a verb
yes
our final category is the limited
edition kettlebrand chip category
are you ready yeah yes starting with
apple cider vinegar oh interesting
oh
sorry
i'm missing a balancing flavor
i like it but i'm missing
it's very authentic something to offset
it a little bit to apple vinegar but
maybe there's not enough salt 61.
yeah it just wouldn't really do it i get
i got to give it a 61.
i'm 61. and that concludes the limited
edition kettle brand chip category
that's where you've tasted all the
kettle brand chips and your scores will
be tabulated so we can take a look at
our top four chips do your thing guys
we'll just sit here and eat more chips
now we may be pretty good at eating food
but you know what the mythical
kitcheners are good at making food and
having a good time while they do it you
can watch them recreate dishes from
hundreds of years ago or learn how to
transform freezer food into a tasty
treat it's all happening over at the
mythical kitchen channel go over there
and tell them we sent you hey
now okay guys
according to you the top four flavors of
kettle brand chips and no particular
order are sea salt sea salt and vinegar
pepperoncini and honey dijon ooh look at
that lineup i like that the color
profile surprise you got a little brown
a little blue a little green or orange
let's start here with with the orig
oh i got a foldy again did we taste this
really early on
classic
it's good
but oh i got a foldy i got a foldy as
well
i don't know how you get any better than
that
but
and this was kind of an acquired taste
for me i do want to acknowledge that
some people just don't like the taste of
vinegar but then if they are those
people here
nope
because i don't see them if you keep
eating it you'll start liking them i'm
gonna i'm gonna choose a foldy i love to
put these on a pizza every once in a
while these oh really peppers you know
oh the peppers papa john's will throw
these into your pizza box without even
even asking about it
this was the huge surprise for me
yep yep yep
because i thought the cheese was gonna
make it into this one
like we barely missed i bet i don't even
know what happened
that's a really i i don't know which one
i like better now that i'm having this
again i know this one came out of
nowhere man
it's not even my thing and then you've
got
uh honey dijon
you said that pretty fancy
very sweet
sweet
the sweetest
i'm trying to get a foldy but i can't i
really like the honey dijon but it's
more of a second bag it's coming a
little it's trying a little too hard for
me yeah this one this should never be
the first bag you buy well let's pick
the third you should always buy two bags
so third you what what gets third place
the dijon or the sea salt i mean i feel
like i kind of like the dijon i feel
like something different
interesting let's get rid of that get
rid of that
so we're putting this up as the third
place yes oh and look it it blends right
in so now it comes down to when i almost
gave a perfect score
a 96
was something i didn't even know existed
but i'm so glad it does
it's got a nice kick to it it's not as
much of a kick in the pants as the
vinegar
both of these are so great because
with such a high
crunch
capacity
that's contained in these chips
you're ready for a big crunch kick
you might as well get a flavor kick
that matches or surpasses it
there's no denying that this has the
bigger flavor kick of the two
and it's a flavor kick that starts
strong and finishes stronger and i am
just in love with it i'm telling you
let's call this the dark horse that
almost made it but yeah i agree with you
man give it to give it the speech there
you go the official
chip that we ship the best cattle brand
flavor that there is salt and vinegar
yeah
i feel good about that and i think
everyone is going to agree except for
those that we're not going to listen to
