- It's a tree, I can't even bite into it!
- [Interviewer] It's kelp, which is basically like ocean trees.
- Um, I'm not doing this.
Every time we do a Kids Try.
(upbeat guitar music)
- [Interviewer] Are you ready for the first one?
- Yeah - Yeah
- [Interviewer] Okay, Close your eyes.
(bowls sliding across the table)
- What is it?
- What is this?
- [Interviewer] You tell me. - It's beef jerky.
It's beef jerky!
- [Interviewer] One of those is meat, and one of them is vegan.
- [Boy] That one's vegan, I can tell.
- Mm. That one's good.
- [Interviewer] What do you taste?
- Meat.
- [Interviewer] And what does the other one taste like?
(laughing)
- I have no idea what I just put in my mouth.
- What is that?
(laughing)
- Oh, That's spicy.
- [Interviewer] What does vegan mean?
- Vegan means they don't eat meat,
so it's made of things that are not meat.
I feel like in vegan foods there's like tofu.
So maybe there's tofu in this.
- [Interviewer] This is actually mushroom jerky.
Why the face?
- I hate mushrooms
- [Interviewer] You hate mushrooms?
- Yeah
- I hate mushrooms.
- [Interviewer] What is jerky?
- Um, it's like dried meat, I think.
That's what it tastes like.
Like a raisin but it's meat.
- Do they just put it in the sun all day?
- No. - [Interviewer] Yeah.
- Wait, what?
- Ha, ha.
- [Interviewer] So, what's the difference
between dehydrated fruit and jerky?
- One's a fruit and one's meat.
- [Interviewer] But we're eating non-meat jerky today.
- Oh. Well, then.
- [Interviewer] I think it's a marketing thing.
I think if you call it jerky more people would want it.
Why do people eat jerky?
- Because of the name. - Because it tastes good.
- [Interviewer] Do you want more?
- Yes, please. - Yes.
- [Interviewer] Alright, let's do it.
- [Boy On Right] Okay, we really gotta talk about this.
It's because of the name.
If you really think about it, jerky is like the texture.
- [Girl On Left] If you have like a hard, rough texture
it doesn't mean it's going to be named jerky.
- [Girl On Right] I know, I know.
- Three, two, one.
It tastes like sausage. - It is not vegan.
- [Interviewer] Zuma, how's the meat one taste?
- This one tastes super good.
- [Interviewer] What do you think you just ate?
- Pig? - [Interviewer] No.
- Cow? - [Interviewer] No.
- A lamb?
- [Interviewer] It's a deer.
- Really?
- [Interviewer] Venison.
- This one kinds smells like my dog's treats
when we get her treats.
Woah.
That was not good.
- [Interviewer] Do you like it?
- I can't bite it.
- It's a tree, I can't even bite into it!
- Are we eating bark?
- [Interviewer] It's kelp, which is basically like ocean trees.
- Um, I'm not doing this.
- Trees?
- Every single time we do a Kids Try!
- I already think I know what it's made of,
just because of its color. - [Interviewer] Really?
- That thought in my brain just changed,
I don't think it's what I thought it was.
- [Interviewer] What did you think it was?
- I thought it was sweet potato.
- Can I eat one of yours?
- Yeah, sure.
- Ew. I licked it but it tastes bad.
- This one looks like something the dog would eat.
- [Interviewer] It's coconut.
- I hate coconut.
- No.
(laughing)
- [Interviewer] (laughing) No what?
- These are not good.
- [Interviewer] You're eating banana jerky.
- That's what it is.
- I couldn't tell! - Tastes good.
- It does taste good.
- [Interviewer] Which one's meat?
- Neither.
- [Interviewer] Nice!
- They don't- Both of them aren't meat?
- [Interviewer] That's right, I tricked you.
- Oh okay.
- [Interviewer] Both of them are vegan.
- That is not food.
- [Interviewer] Do you want any more jerky?
- No.
- I did not know there is vegan jerky.
I thought that was just something you didn't make vegan,
because it's just basically raisins.
- Vegan jerky is just dried fruit and vegetables. Yeah!
- And some can be very tasty.
- I don't really like jerky.
