- Today we ask the age old question
- Will it cinnamon roll?
- Let's talk about that.
(groovy music)
- Good mythical morning.
- We are smelling the scent
of strange and wonderful cinnamon rolls,
and we are gonna be sinking our teeth into those soon.
But first we want to give a big congratulations
to the winners of this year's
Golden Ticket of Mythical giveaway.
Congratulations to Samantha from Creekside, Pennsylvania.
She won free merch for an entire year.
Vicki from Jersey City, New Jersey
won a virtual taste test with us.
It was very fun.
And Skyler from Fort Collins, Colorado
got a big fat $18,000 check.
- Woo, we're gonna be posting some of the highlights
from our virtual taste test with Vicki
over on the Mythical Society.
So check that out at mythicalsociety.com.
But for now back to our regularly scheduled doughgramming.
- Now my daughter Lily
recently ade some cinnamon rolls
and I got excited 'cause I love cinnamon rolls
until I realized, and I told her, I was like,
"Listen, you're not asking for feedback,
but these aren't as good because these are cinnamon buns."
- Which turns out
- Which we got in an argument because she was like,
"Those are the same thing
and don't talk to me like you talk to Josh, dad.
I didn't make these for you anyway.
I was just letting you have one."
And I was like, "Well, that's fair."
But I tried to explain
the difference between the cinnamon roll and cinnamon bun
and then I didn't get anywhere.
Then I come in here and right before we're shooting this,
we get into it again and-
- Because there's not a difference
between a cinnamon roll and cinnamon bun.
- I was thinking about a sticky bun.
I mean it's complicated.
All I know is that there's some cinnamon rolls that I like
and others that I don't like.
And now I've lost the privilege
of having my daughter make me whatever it is ever again
so I have to eat it here. - It's sad
that you let that come in between you and your daughter,
but you know what-
- We're still good except for the cinnamon roll bun front.
- All I know is there's not gonna be any sticky buns here
because nobody wants to upset you.
We're gonna have cinnamon rolls.
- I'm not upset.
I'm swallowing defeat.
- Well let's roll out some cinnamon rolls.
It's time for
- [Both] "Will it Cinnamon Roll?"
- We both love a slice of cheese
on a slice of apple pie, right?
I mean that was a, it's a great combination,
cheesiness and sweetness
So with that logic in mind,
we thought we wanted to cheesify a cinnamon roll.
And then we thought,
well we can go all the way
and grilled cheesify a cinnamon roll.
So here it is, the grilled cinnamooooo
because of the dairy.
- 'Cause the cows make moo sounds.
- So Josh, what did you do?
And is this no longer considered dessert?
- [Josh] I think this is,
dessert is a state of mind,
it can be whatever you want it to be.
So we took provolone and cheddar
and mixed that into the dough.
Then we did a tomato paste swirl on the inside
and that's topped with a creamy cheddar frosting.
- Now I'm going for the middle of each one of these.
I'm eating the heart of these cinnamon rolls.
- That's what I'm doing.
- Don't get mad at me.
One of the reasons I'm doing it
is 'cause I can eat it with a fork
and I won't get cheese all up in my beard.
You don't want that.
You don't want to see that.
It's a bad scene.
- Yeah, one of the fun things about a cinnamon roll
is that you can unroll it like a scroll and eat it.
- You can't do that with a bun.
- Yeah exactly.
- Hey, I thought you were right man,
but we were both wrong.
- [Link] This is still cinnamony, still cheesy.
- [Rhett] Wow.
- You didn't go too hard on the tomato.
- The tomato soup is like so understated
and subtle in like a good way, like I don't,
man this is good.
I would not even know
that I was eating something that had tomato soup in it.
- Does the cheese make it better?
You know, I love a good icing,
even like a cream cheese type icing.
- I think what's happening
is the same thing that happens
in an apple pie when you put cheese on it.
- Yeah.
- I can't say that it's better than a regular cinnamon roll,
but again, that's not the question.
Is this good?
- [Both] Yeah.
- So grilled cheese, will it cinnamon roll?
- [Both] Yes.
- Now here at GMM,
we do not recommend eating kids,
unless they come from the sour patch.
- Oh yeah.
- Yes, we love Sour Patch Kids,
but we noticed,
you don't see a lot of sour paired with cinnamon.
So that's why we are trying a Sour Patch Kid cinnamon roll,
or as we like to call it, children of the roll.
- And look at this.
I mean we got a gingerbread type situation happening,
gingerbread boy.
People may be thinking this doesn't look like a roll.
I mean.
- [Josh] Nah, you got to dig in
to the soft belly meat of that child
and there you will find the roll.
- [Link] Okay so this part here is,
it's like a dissection,
which makes it even more fun.
- [Josh] Yeah, and so we just mixed
a bunch of the blue Sour Patch Kids
into the actual dough itself to get a blue sour dough
and then, like I said,
it's soft belly meat is filled
with a lemon lime and cinnamon filling.
- Don't eat it yet, wait for me.
- I'm just smelling it.
- Smell all you want.
- Hold on, did you get the heart?
- I'm trying to get to the heart.
- Oh, you have really, really desecrated that.
- Now the unrollability
is challenging. - Are you gonna say
it makes it less fun?
I mean it's a little less fun,
but look how fun the whole deal is.
- Sour cinnamon roll.
- Dink it. - And sink it.
- Is there cinnamon in there?
- [Josh] Yeah, yeah, it's mostly sour,
but then it's a little bit of cinnamon.
- This might be a shareable dish.
- Yeah, it's very rich.
- You know, it packs a lot of punch.
If you're on the go and you don't have time
to eat an entire pack of Sour Patch Kids and a cinnamon roll
and you want to get the sensation
that you just did that in one bite,
that's what just happened with me.
- But it looks colorful.
- Yeah, I mean you put this thing under the glass
at the candy shop or the bakery
- [Link] You'll sell a couple.
- You could sell it at both places.
It's a crossover, this is a crossover item.
- People will definitely buy it.
They'll eat it and then not buy it again.
- Tourists will buy it
and then next year when they come back, they won't-
- They won't buy it.
- But they'll buy it.
There's enough first time people at this particular shop,
this hypothetical shop.
- Sour Patch Kids, will it cinnamon roll?
- [Both] No.
- If you've got Pillsbury cinnamon rolls,
you can get it with regular icing, which I love,
or you can get it with orange icing,
which I have never touched.
Have you?
- Yeah, I've tried it.
It's not my preference but I do enjoy it.
- But we're like,
well, if we're gonna go orange with cinnamon roll,
we're gonna go all the way orange,
all the way to Panda Express.
We give you the orangen't you glad
this isn't actually made of Panda?
- [Josh] Yeah, that's my bad.
Our panda meat guy's on vacation.
Holiday season. - It's slow.
Slow market.
- So this is orange chicken
from Panda Express cinnamorollified.
But how exactly did you do this?
- [Josh] So we actually chopped up the orange chicken
very, very finely
and made it into a paste with cinnamon sugar
and rolled that in a dough
threaded with chow mein noodles
and then an orange chicken sauce icing atop.
- Look at that. - This is crazy.
And I'll tell you right now,
the scent is just straight up Panda Express.
It's like if you climb on the roof of a Panda Express
and you like put your
- Nose right on the chimney
- Nose right on that bung hole,
whatever that hole is
they got coming out of a Panda Express.
- Bung hole is the technical term.
- You just, just take a deep-
- The inspector's here.
He's got to inspect the bung hole.
Now I feel like a mischievous child
every time I go into the center,
the heart of this thing.
You know there are kids out there,
there's got to be kids out there
who their parents make them cinnamon rolls
and then just go and they eat the middle
and they're like, "I'm done".
I'm that kid right now.
- [Link] As a kid, you ate it first.
- Uh uh.
Oh sorry.
- You would save it for last, right?
'Cause I do feel guilty about it.
So this is a meal role, this is not a dessert role.
Or is it?
- It's making me,
I'm having to like re-interpret the bread.
I like the taste.
- I've got to get some more of the chicken paste.
- It's not the first time I heard that.
The inspector's here.
He's finished with the bung hole,
now he needs some more chicken paste.
- I'm on the fence, man. - I'm on the fence.
I was gonna say if you jumped over the fence,
I would go with you
and if you said, "I don't know,
I don't think we should trespass today",
I'd be like, "All right".
- The only thing holding me back is the cinnamon itself.
But that's such a central piece
of the cinnamon roll. - You've got to free
your mind man.
- It plays well together.
I'm on board.
- Oh, you went over the fence?
- I went over the fence. - We're trespassing.
Panda Express, will it cinnamon roll?
- [Both] Yes.
- Remember the first time you had a meat lover's pizza?
- It was a milestone moment for me.
- You ever thought it'd be better in cinnamon roll form?
- Yeah I did. - No, you never thought
that but you are today.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the first ever meat lover's cinnamon roll
or as we like to call it nice to cinnameat you, roll.
- This thing, it looks like it's got mustard on top
but it's got meat gushing out of every corner.
- It's got meal limbs. - You pretty much nailed it.
- That's it, man.
- [Josh] No, we got salami, pastrami, prosciutto in there.
There's a spicy brown mustard glaze.
That's gonna be our beef bullion caramel on the bottom
and then the cinnamon au jus for dipping.
I would pour the au jus on top of it
and just let it slop
in there for a sec. - Au jus.
So I'm gonna, oh me and then I could au jus.
- No, I'm, I went real strong with that.
Is that okay?
- [Josh] Yeah, I love that.
- [Link] Wow.
- Oh man, the flavors coming off of this thing.
Cinnamon does a lot.
When it's around, it does a lot.
It's a hard worker.
- The one thing I remember
about Pizza Hut Meat Lover's Pizza,
like I think they're at least the first place I ever had it.
They would have the sausage hunks
that were like three inches tall and full of seeds.
- Sausage seeds, sausage seeds.
- Dink it and sink it.
- It's a little rich.
- [Josh] Yeah, but only because all the things in it.
- I mean look at that. - Oh, it's salty.
- A roll of meat that's just hidden in there.
- It tastes good to me.
- Here's the deal.
I mean I could make a meal out of this.
I would make a meal out of this,
especially in desperate times.
I'm just beginning to understand
why cinnamon hasn't been incorporated into savory dishes.
Like there's not like cinnamon chicken on,
you think you would see that like on a menu somewhere.
- Yeah, you're right.
- There's a reason that you don't see it.
- [Link] 'Cause of this taste that we're tasting.
- They go down battling each other,
meat, cinnamon, cinnamon, meat,
meat, cinnamon, cinnamon, meat.
They don't meet in the middle at all.
- [Link] Meat, will it cinnamon roll?
- [Both] No.
- We have reached the moment in the will it episode
where our team forces us to eat something
that is extremely gross
and then they paired it with a punny name.
But jokes on you guys because we have decided
to remain extremely positive about this one.
- Yeah.
- Please bring out the fish eye roll,
AKA, the gills have eyes roll.
- It smells great.
- Yes, this looks so good.
You did such a great job.
Oh, I can smell the ocean.
- Why is it so strong?
And I'm excited about that,
but what is it that smells
so strong, Josh? - The pungency
is just hard to achieve.
How on Earth did you do
such a great thing? - I was gonna say thank you
'cause normally by this round,
you're not so positive,
but this is a really nice change for me.
And that's great
'cause I really wanted to keep this pretty simple,
really stick to the fish eye roots,
ground up fish eyes with cinnamon sugar,
rolled them in a dough,
top to it with some fresh fish eyes
and a little bit of fish sauce, caramel for garnish.
That's the strong smell you're smelling.
- Oh the fish sauce caramel, mmm.
- [Josh] Yeah.
- And the eyes, the fact that I can see the eyes.
I can see the part of the fish that sees.
- What kind of fish is that?
- [Josh] Yeah, eyeball, I don't know.
- [Link] Ugh, I'm really
- Positive?
- I'm really happy that this is happening.
So the, oh my gosh,
the black stuff is not just cinnamon, right?
- [Josh] No, there's actually a little kind of sack
inside the eyeball
that'll explode with black inklike substance
when you microwave it.
- [Rhett] I'm still so excited about this.
(gagging)
- It's so wonderfully gushy looking.
- I mean, okay.
- [Josh] It is actually kinda crunchy.
(gagging)
- So I've got, you know, I'm so glad that this is happening.
- [Josh] Yeah, so people think they'll be squishy,
but actually the lens will crunch in your teeth.
- [Rhett] Yeah, right, yeah, I've been there before.
- I'm crying.
- I'm positive that this is gonna be good,
but I am getting this bucket ready.
(sighing)
Only good things today.
- I'm alive, I'm well.
I'm with my buddy making an internet show.
- Yeah.
- I've done it for a number of years
and people still watch it.
Everyone can't say that.
- Everyone can't, everyone can't.
Some people stopped watching it.
- Yeah, some people stopped watching this.
Some people stopped watching
right before we were doing this.
This is the last straw for some people.
- Yeah, yeah.
- It's nice to be here with you.
- [Rhett] But we're not using straws, we're using forks.
- [Both] Dink it, sink it.
(gagging)
- God.
If you do this.
You are the man if you can keep it in, man,
if you can do it.
Man, that's so positive.
- Yeah.
I mean on a positive note, it's, it's
- It's not in my mouth anymore.
- Yeah, yeah.
On a positive note, I'm no longer eating it.
- Josh, I really tried, man.
- [Josh] That's all I can ask for really.
You know, I really appreciate the effort, guys.
- Well, you know, let me think about this one.
- I've got it.
Fish eyes, will it cinnamon roll?
- [Both] No.
- Josh is into this kind of thing so we're gonna save,
put a sheet over it,
we're gonna save it all for Josh to enjoy.
There's still at least eight eyes.
