- Would you pop into a Pop-Tarts restaurant?
- Let's talk about that.
(upbeat techno music)
- Good Mythical Morning.
- Pop-Tarts. Frosted little nostalgia bombs
that at first bite take me right back to my childhood.
When YouTube hadn't yet been invented,
dinosaurs roamed freely among us,
and I couldn't wait for my adult chin to grow out.
(Link chuckles)
Still waitin'.
- But what if there was a place where Pop-Tarts
were more than just a sugary breakfast?
Or a quick snack?
What if an entire chef-driven Pop-Tarts restaurant
could be a thing?
And perhaps more importantly, should it be a thing?
It's time for...
(soft jazz plays) Restaurant possible?
[Link Voiceover] Pop-Tarts edition.
- Welcome to the gastro pop. May I take your order?
Is something I would say if I worked here
but I don't I'm just here to eat.
- Right, as you can see, the Mythical Crew
has actually built the first ever Pop-Tarts restaurant.
Looks amazing guys.
And with the help of Mythical chef Josh
and the Kitcheneers, we are going to eat out way
through a four-course Pop-Tarts Menu.
Pretty exciting.
- And if we have any ideas along the way
we're going to, uh, drop them into this
poppin' off box.
- Yeah, cause this is still in development
we can, we can help make this restaurant
a success. - Suggestions. Yes.
- All right. In the in we're gonna decide
if a Pop-Tarts restaurant is in fact,
restaurant possible or restaurant not possible.
- Yeah.
- And Pop-Tarts, if you like what you see,
(whispers) call us.
- All right, so this is basically the opposite
of if we were to do wheel of Pop-Tart.
Because instead of taking a bunch of dishes
and making them look like Pop-Tarts,
this is taking the magic of Pop-Tarts, and they are magic,
and infusing that experience into every course of a meal.
- Let's get poppin'
(soft jazz plays)
- All right looks like we're beginning our soft launch
with a little appa-tizer cocktail.
- Yeah, we have ordered a Pop-Tarts mule
that is a s'more Pop-Tart infused, vodka, ginger beer
and lime adult drink.
- Not for the kids.
- Served with Pop-Tarts garnish.
- It's tempting for the children
because it's got s'mores Pop-Tarts in it and on it
but they can't have it!
- This is an actual, circulated or circularfied
- Circulated, I've never heard that
verb quite like that. - Mm, put that in there.
(slurps)
(laughter off camera)
- That's very sweet.
- Oh, that's good.
- Oooooh.
- Yeah it is good. I think we're gonna be saying
that's very sweet.
- All right, lets take the whole thing down.
Let's take the whole thing down.
- Three, two, no okay we won't do that.
- Oh, it's cold too.
- And we've also got
momma's Pop-Tarts mozzarella sticks.
Uh, we've got blueberry Pop-Tart breaded mozzarella sticks
with uh, I have raspberry marinara and so the raspberry
Pop-Tarts made this marinara.
And then you've got cupcake confetti Pop-Tart ranch
on your side.
- All right, I'm gonna get some, I'm gonna get some
uh, some of that ranch. - Some blueberry.
- You can, you can see. I don't know if you can
see it on camera. But, you can see the little blue
the pale blue dots. - Streaks
[Link] in the, in the cheese.
[Rhett] Aw there you go, when you open it up
you can really see it.
- Ew, that's also sweet.
All right so you got the
that breading
it's got quite a
- I taste the blueberries.
- Quite a happy kick.
- But, I guess that's the idea.
(laughing off camera)
(Rhett grunting)
- I mean, yah, yah bring your kids to this restaurant
and you're gonna rurn 'em.
[Rhett] -Mmmm
[Link] - You know what I'm sayin'.
- It's kinda strong.
[Link] -I really, really like it though.
[Rhett] - I've got my first suggestion.
- Which is?
- I kind of wish I was sitting across from you.
(lots of laughter off camera)
- Yeah this is
- I wish they had two sided booths, so.
- I mean if you were sitting right there,
with your back to the camera the whole time.
- Yeah
- That'd be fine with me.
Cause I would be like having to peak around
- Two sided booths, my first request.
- Um, t-t-tell 'em I also like that the table
looks like Pop-Tarts.
(Rhett repeating link as he writes)
- Which is very thoughtful.
But also tell 'em, that I don't think
that the urinal cakes in the restroom should be Pop-Tarts.
Because I'm too tempted to eat them.
- Ah, too late. You'll have to tell them next time.
- I'm lovin' both of these though.
Let's move on to the next course.
(soft jazz playing)
- Before us we have the Pop-Tarts taco trio.
Which looks absolutely amazing.
And they've been infused with specific Pop-Tarts
throughout every part of the taco.
- Even the tortilla.
- Yeah.
- So we got al pastor. Which is a cherry Pop-Tart tortilla.
And then salsa roja on the uh, pork
which has been infused with cherries as well.
We've got carne asada, which comes with a hot fudge tortilla
and then mole that has the hot fudge built into it.
- Oh yeah, that chocolate with the carne asada.
- Then the chorizo,
which has a brown sugar cinnamon tortilla
and then also has the brown sugar cinnamon in the chorizo.
And then some salsa seca.
- Oh my goodness. Okay.
We gotta get a little bite of each of these.
- I'm gonna do a little, little lime-age on this.
- For starters.
- I'm gonna go with the uh, cherry tortilla
salsa roja al pastor.
- Not immediately sweet,
but immediately spicy.
- Yeah this ones good 'cause it's got a little kick to it,
- Mmmmm!! - and it balances out.
- You need to be kicked in the face.
When somebody's being real sweet to you all the time.
- They need to like,
[Link] - mmm!
do something nasty to you every once and a while.
- Oooh!
[Rhett] - Just so it all balances out.
(slurps)
- I got, mmmm, that is some tasty taco.
(laughter off camera)
- Uhm, moving on to the.
- Aw, I've already go it all over my menu.
Sorry menu.
[Link] - The hot fudge carne asada.
Yeah you got that chocolatey mole type sensation.
- Oh man.
Mole's one of my favorite things.
And uh...
- The chocolate hits.
(snaps)
- I think this may have been and improvement on it.
You know it'd be nice to have a waiter
come and say mean things to us as well.
Cause I-I-I am kinda overwhelmed with the sweetness.
What is that restaurant you go to -
all the waiters are jerks to you?
- Dicks
- No sorry, that's sporting goods.
- That's sporting goods.
- But it would work, right?
- What is it, what are y'all saying?
(mumbling off camera)
- What?
[Man off Camera] - Dick's Last Resort
- Dick's Last Resort
- Oh it is Dick's!
[Link] - These are amazing Josh. Great work. Uhm.
[Rhett] - Who's Josh?
- I haven't even gotten to the chorizo with the, with the
with the cinnamon sugar.
- I mean, we're havin' such a good time
that it's kind of like just watchin' two guys eat
at a restaurant and not say anything about what
they're experiencing because it's so good. Um.
- I'll tell yah right now. This one has the most
Pop-Tarty sweetness.
Cause of the cinnamon and the sugar.
- My favorite was the one with a little bit of spice.
I gotta say that the sweetness is building
and I'm beginning to think I don't know if I could take
uh, the sweetness so I'm gonna make a suggestion
that someone come and be an (bleep) to me.
- Can you just add that I wanna have,
just some real Pop-Tarts that I can crumble up
and sprinkle over everything.
Or just occasional just eat a real Pop-Tart.
- You want more Pop-Tarts?
- I just want more Pop-Tarts.
(laughter off screen)
- Can you also add
- But those are two, I feel like we need to do
different cards for that.
Can you be mean to me?
- I think, hey!
Don't use a different card, you jerk!
- Thank you.
(soft jazz plays)
- Okay, so you gotta have something for healthy eaters.
And at the gastro pop this is as healthy as it gets.
[Link] - This is the Pop-Tarts crispy fried chicken salad
with wild berry vinaigrette!
Okay, so we've got this crispy chicken
which is battered with pretzel cinnamon sugar Pop-Tarts.
[Rhett] -ooh oooh oooh.
- Which is a pretty new Pop-Tart they got out there.
And, we got these croutons
which are brown cinnamon sugar bites.
Which is another thing I didn't know Pop-Tarts had.
- We just eat it with our hands.
- Uh, no look at this.
You get yourself a utensil. You wanna get one here.
- Oh, that's smart it's in a toaster.
(metal clanking)
- Grab it.
Now I'd like for you to go ahead and make a suggestion
that this is a really good idea.
- That's not a suggestion, - Oh my gosh, I'm breaking it.
- that's just a compliment.
- We love the fact that you've got silverware in toasters.
- Teaching children to do this.
It's plugged in, make sure it's on.
- Big hearts on that one.
- You want a knife?
- Teach the kids, toaster utensils, big thumbs up.
- It's dangerous in so many ways
as it turns out. - Ten outta ten.
- Do not rethink that detail.
- Now I'm very interested in this
pretzel cinnamon sugar batter.
- Well it's good to be interested in things, Link.
- I know it's a salad but I'm just gonna eat the chicken
on my first bite.
- You just going chicken, chicken boy first?
- That's actually not sweet enough.
I have this expectation that everything
at the Pop-Tarts restaurant needs to be really sweet
- No, no
- Of course if you combine it with a crouton
- You don't want, I eh, my only problem so far
is how sweet everything is.
- Too sweet it is?
You're kids are gonna be disappointed that's all I'm sayin'.
[Rhett] - Um.
- I just ate the whole thing.
Oh.
That's good.
Fully toasted, mmm.
Speaking of which,
I think you should also suggest there should be
a separate section for people who don't like their
Pop-Tarts toasted.
- Like a non-smoking section.
- Yeah, non-toasted section.
- Mmmm,
should it be bigger or smaller? Because a non-smoking-
They don't do that at restaurants anymore.
- Yeah.
- I miss the smoking section.
(chuckles)
[Link] - What's wrong with you.
Okay And just to say I ate some salad I'm gonna do that.
Hey Mom, I ate some salad. Get off my back.
- Uh.
- Those bites are amazing. The chickens amazing.
The toasters amazing.
- You're havin' a great time. You're a sweet guy. Um.
- You don't like it?
- I'm a savory man and, I- this is-
I'm wearin' a little thin.
I'm just wearin' a little thin.
I just feel like I need like, some just like, raw sand
or dirt to just put on my mouth at this point.
- Do we have any of that?
(smooth jazz playing)
- We have in fact ordered for dessert,
Pop-Tart's gooey strawberry molten lava cake.
[Rhett] - Now this isn't what you would typically expect
from a molten lava cake cause we got white cake
with strawberry crust, strawberry filling
and Pop-Tarts icing and sprinkles on top.
[Link]- Ooooooooooooooh.
It's it's behaving just like uh
[Rhett] - oh, look at, oh that's molten.
Oh that's so molten.
[Link] - like a pierced Pop-Tart.
That is
[Rhett] - I kinda don't want, (mumbling)
somebody broke the dam, I kinda wanted to go back in there.
- Oh you can (mumbling)
[Rhett] - Get it, get it. Come on son get in there.
[Link]- You can scoop it, you can scoop it. Oh yeah.
- Now I think this is, this is gonna work for me because
Pop-Tart's are a dessert guys. Right?
I mean and a healthy breakfast.
(laughing off camera)
- Mm
mmm
- This begins to, this begins to make sense to me.
[Link] - mmm hmmm
Everything has made sense to me.
[Rhett] - Aw, that's like a strawberry shortcake.
[Link] - Especially those tacos.
They were unforgettably amazing.
This is-
- Aw this is, this is real good.
[Link] - This is,
this is a great alternate version of a Pop-Tart.
Aw man
- I do have a suggestion.
- That is rich.
- I would like some table-side toasting.
- Oh yeah?
- Just some-
- Like a (torch fire sound)
- Personal toasting.
- Oh like, here's to you for being here.
- Yeah, right.
[Link] - Oh, okay.
Can you also add, I don't think that the toilets
should be toasters because I don't know what slot
to go in.
- Okay, The smallest one for you.
- Wow.
I don't know if that was an insult or not.
But I guess it was.
I really don't use the toilet the way that you
seem to be implying.
(off screen laughter)
- Well you should try it. (laughing menacingly)
- Okay.
- Sorry, what I'm saying is don't go to the bathroom
- They're gonna kick you out of this pop tarts restaurant.
- Uh, okay. So I think this may have redeemed it for me.
It got a little bit sweet but when it all came together in
dessert form it made sense in my mind.
- I was on board all the way.
Don't forget about the tacos Rhett.
They were absolutely amazing.
- I remember the tacos.
- This entire experience to me is something that
I want to take my family friends, all types of visitors.
Come on out to LA. I know where I'm gonna take yah.
- To this desk.
(lauging)
