- You can't not know what this is.
- That's Popeye's!?
- Oh look at these! These are pretty.
- (Sharon) Mmm.
- (PvF) Today, we're going to taste test fast food chicken nuggets,
and see if you can guess where they're from.
- Yes! - Oh, okay,
I think I'm gonna do pretty well.
- This is the best thing ever.
- (PvF) How's your nuggie knowledge?
- I smoke Indica, Sativa, hybrids. - (laughs) No, dude!
- Yeah, is that not what we're doing?
- I have weekly chicken nights. - With yourself?
- With really anyone who wants.
- (Ema) (laughs) Whoever shows up? - Yeah.
- Jeez Louise.
- Let's get our first nuggets in here.
- See, like what are these?
- That's not McDonald's. - Not McDonald's.
- Alright, we get to try it too, right?
We're not just looking at it?
- (PvF) Smell, taste, inspect.
- I already know.
I already know from the smell.
- (PvF) Do you recognize this at all? - Mm-hmm, oh yeah.
- This is really good.
- I ate a lot of this as a kid, I know exactly what this is.
- Right.
- The seasoning's really familiar.
- I know I've had this.
- (PvF) How are you feeling about your answer?
Are you pretty confident? - No!
- (PvF) What are your guesses?
- Okay. - Jack in the Box.
- This is KFC dude.
This is 100% KFC. - It's KFC, honestly.
- (PvF) It is KFC. - Oh!
- Can't you taste the 13 herbs and spices?
- Wait.
- (PvF) Isn't it still 11?
- Wait, is it, really? - 11, I don't know the number.
- Wait, is it really KFC?
- That's really good. - Yeah, oh yeah, it's good.
- It's seasoned right, it's like a cute little nugget, you know?
- (PvF) Did you guys know that KFC is currently experimenting
with a 3D bio-printed chicken nugget,
that they're working with a company in Russia?
- What? (laughs)
- I'd like to go with a hell no.
- I mean, it's a little weird, but...
- It's like Star Trek. - It's cool, science!
- No, it's pretty cool. - Nice. (laughs)
- Anyways, I really appreciate these, these are good.
- (PvF) Alright, let's move on.
- Oh, these are really crispy.
- Oh, look at these! These are pretty!
- (Sharon) Mmm.
- Okay.
- This one's a quick and easy one. Oh, I love you.
- This one's giving me bad vibes.
- It just kinda has a blah taste.
- Yeah, it's not very seasoned, especially after that last one.
- Yeah, right.
- This is throwing me for a bit of a loop.
- Yeah, I know exactly what this is.
Mm-hmm.
- I think I know. - It's the breading.
- I don't wanna give any spoilers, by what I say.
(Sharon inhales)
- (PvF) Alright, and who do you think made this one?
- It's Popeye's.
- (PvF) It is Popeye's!
- Bang! - Yeah!
- Yes! - I knew it!
♪ (electronic music) ♪
- Their nuggets are like new, right?
(buzzer rings)
- (PvF) The president of Popeye's America said...
- No!
- (PvF) Our brand new chicken nuggets
are unlike anything you may have experienced before.
- No, that's not true. (laughs)
- I sadly have to disagree with that.
- That's Popeye's?
There's like no... - There's no seasoning.
- All it is is flour and chicken.
- They are just smaller versions of Popeye's chicken strips.
- Yeah, yeah, that's true. - Or fried chicken.
- They're not gonna get invited to the barbecue.
Let me tell ya that right now.
- (gasps) Uh...
- Off the bat. (laughs) - You already know?
- Oh God yeah.
- (George) Really? - (Brian) Oh God yeah.
- Oh my.
- Oh, these are a weird looking one. - (Sharon) Mm-hmm.
- These are some spicy nuggs.
- Yeah, they definitely look spicy.
- By the look, it could be one or two,
'cause they look similar,
but I'm gonna know the moment I taste it.
- Oh yeah, that is spicy, that's why it's that color, right?
- Mm.
- This nugget is bad. I do not like this one.
- I'm just going... - Mmm, I like these.
- I'm scared, if I don't get this right, it doesn't count.
(Brian laughs)
- I'm scared. I'm scared, Nicole.
- I feel like I made a lot of bold claims at the beginning,
and so now I'm nervous.
- (PvF) You can flip it over.
- Burger King? - Burger King?
Oh! - Is it Wendy's?
- I think it's Wendy's.
- (PvF) It is Wendy's spicy nuggets.
- Oh yeah.
- Actually, that's so funny you say that, because...
(Brian laughs)
I actually had Wendy's on the other side of my paddle just in case.
- Magic trick.
(buzzer rings) - These are yummy.
- These are really bad. These are really bad.
- (PvF) Originally removed from the menu in 2017,
these popular nuggets were brought back
after persistent calls from millions of fans,
and most importantly a tweet from Chance the Rapper.
- Yep. - Of course.
- (PvF) That Wendy's brought them back in 2019.
- Mm-hmm. - Of course.
- I'm, yeah, I have no idea.
- Mmm. - Clearly.
- Hmm.
- I don't think they should've brought these back.
- (PvF) Alright, let's move on to the next one!
- Thank you, okay. - Okay.
Okay, I feel confident already. - Yeah.
I don't really think I need to or want to try these.
- These are iconic shapes.
- This is so iconic, like... - I know what this is.
- I mean, these are our jam, right? - Yeah.
- You can't not know what this is. Like come on.
- Unless it's a trick, 'cause Nicole be tricky.
- Mmm, hot and crispy, right from the store.
- (PvF) Alright, whose do you think these are?
- So easy, unmistakable. - Classic McDonald's.
- Mm-hmm.
♪ Bah-dah-bah-bah-bah ♪
- (PvF) So these nuggets actually come in four distinct shapes,
before being breaded and fried.
They are McDonald's chicken nuggets.
- Alright!
- McDonald's are the worst nuggets.
I'm sorry, that's worse than the Wendy's.
- I will say, in some struggle points in my life,
I have let... - Held onto a 20 piece for a while?
- I've let a 20 piece sit in my refrigerator
for about three days, still ate it.
- Okay.
- Okay. Small bites again.
- I know man!
- I'm trying to think what have we missed?
Oh, I think I know what it is.
- The look is, there's nothing like it on the market.
- Heavier on the chicken than the...
- Mm-hmm. - Breading, I like that.
- Yeah.
- In my opinion, they are sickeningly sweet.
They barely even count as savory to me.
- Is your mouth okay? (laughs)
- I don't really be eating this one, because they're...
- Mmm, obvious reasons.
- I saw her write that.
- One, two, three, it's Chick-fil-A.
- This is Chick-fil-A. - Chick-fil-A!
- (PvF) It is CFA. - Mm-hmm.
- Was it Chick-fil-A? - (PvF) It's Chick-fil-A.
- I thought I tasted hate.
- We both know that this is Chick-fil-A.
- I didn't, because I don't be ingesting these.
- (PvF) Alright, you ready for the last one?
- This is a lot to think about. - (Ema) I think so. (laughs)
- Okay, before the last one, what's left?
- Okay, yeah.
- Don't say anything, but just think about it.
- No, I know what one's left. I know what one was left.
- Oh, very odd shape in my opinion.
- (laughs) High key, I'm pretty sure I know
where these are from, but these ones in particular
look like you pulled them out of the dirt. (laughs)
- (PvF) What are your clues on this one?
- The leathery finish. (Ema laughs)
The cardboard taste.
- Mm, I do not like these ones.
- They are a little bland, again.
- My fingers are too greasy to open this marker.
Okay.
- Alright.
- Burger King. - Burger King.
- (PvF) So, these are easily the cheapest nuggets in the bunch,
as Burger King... - Yeah!
- (PvF) Sells them 10 nuggets for a dollar.
- Oh God, too cheap, scary. - Wow!
- That's an insane price. - Yeah.
A bargain at any price. (laughs)
- Burger King. - We both did it!
We both did the little crown.
- We both drew the crown, his crown is way cuter than mine.
- No, your crown, I liked your crown better.
- But yeah, I definitely knew these nuggets,
but also everything fried at Burger King
tastes the [censored] same.
Somebody set these in the fryer and then went on break.
- (PvF) Brian, you got all of them correct.
- Hey! - (PvF) You are our winner!
- I'm just saying, I know my nuggets, I said it earlier.
You know, we came in to play the game,
we came to win, and we won it.
Here we go! - Whoop, whoop, whoop!
- Say look, it's alright, you know! - Yes, yes, he did it, we did it!
- No, please, stop, it's fine. Thank you, no pictures please.
Alright, thank you very much, and we'll be right back,
right after this.
- Thank you guys so much for watching!
