Good afternoon good evening and good nut! It's the 2024 Peanut Butter Madness Tournament: Snack. Division. You went Macho Man on that one.

Yeah. That's getting butter and butter. Today's bracket consists of the most popular peanut butter snacks on the market. as determined by the Mythical Beasts our board of brackets today will be controlled. by a guest straight from the source. Please meet Charlie a peanut butter factory employee. Hi! What's up dude? I'm Peanut Butter Charlie. I've been working here for oh say 35 years despite being deathly allergic to. peanuts. Really? Yeah. I can't really be in the same room with them.

I have to wear a full bee suit when I do it. But I'm very excited to be here. Do you have any Benadryl? We probably have some. There's like a first aid kit around here. Yeah. I mean an EpiPen? Do you have? No no no. I mean if I'm going to die I'm going to die you know? Let go and let God. You will be responsible for driving yourself to the hospital? Oh I'll walk there. That's fine. And you know what? If I do drive God will take the wheel.

Oh you're a man of faith? I am a man of faith. But not in peanut butter. It's disgusting. Have you ever had it? It's gross. It makes your throat burn and then you almost die. We love it actually. I'm sorry. If you. like what's your name? Charlie. Charlie. Peanut butter Charlie. We have said his name three times. It's actually your name. Three times. He's your name too. My name is not Charlie. Okay. The winning peanut butter snack today will be named The Snack I'd Love To Mack.

and gentlemen please present the top six peanut butter snacks. Nutty Buddys. Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chex Mix Muddy Buddies. Peanut butter filled Snyder's pretzel pieces. Tagalong Girl Scout cookies. Nutter Butters. And Ritz Peanut Butter Crackers. Starting with our fourth seed Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chex Mix Muddy. Buddies up against our fifth seed peanut butter filled Snyder's pretzel.

Okie dokie. So this is basically. Puppy chow. Puppy chow? Now in my family we call this white trash but. you probably shouldn't do that. Where's the peanut butter flavor? It's in there but it's not very strong. I mean you get the powdered chocolate then you get the Chex Mix. So yeah this is you know the homemade recipe people have been making it for. years. And then in 2002 they decided to put it on the market. A it's not as good as the homemade version.

No way. B I can barely taste the peanut butter. I can barely taste the peanut butter. What's going on here? Homemade version so much better than this. It's got real peanut butter in it. Says it right there on the packaging. You know it's funny that they call it puppy chow because. Chex Mix like the original. was made by a dog food company at first. Purina. Yep that's right. Did you read that in the same place I did? I did. Yeah. Right there. Okay. All right. Snyder's. We did a Gut Check where we tasted all the Snyder's.

And yes this made it to the finals but it didn't win. The peanut butter boys didn't push it over the top. but we do keep them stocked at the creative house now. I tried to show the inside of this with the peanut butter but I got all the. peanut butter when I bit it. Yeah if you don't eat it all at once the peanut butter will fall out. And there's a little bit of shake. You can feel the peanut butter shaking inside. It's like an instrument. It's like an instrument that makes no noise except to your ear when you get. really close to it. Salty pretzely peanut buttery.

Even if they weren't good it would beat this. Yeah. So we've got. to send. the. filled pieces with real peanut butter Snyder's of Hanover. You just read everything on there. Oh all right. So you chose the Snyder's. Is that right? That is right. Oh good. Yeah it's funny you said that one. The other one was dog food because it all tastes like dog food to me. It's disgusting. It's the worst. Now technically you could touch those signs without your gloves because there's.

no. Who wants to chance it? Okay. All right. You're right. You're right. Like why would I take that risk to my well being? That means that. we are sending the. Muddy Buddies. to the next life. Dig a little hole here Link. What are we calling this? What's our clever name for this? You're spread to me. Muddy Buddies. you're spread to me.

That's weird. Get it? Because it's like you're dead to me. The processing time was. I think we need to leave that in. That timing. Oh yeah we are. It's all in there. No edits today. All right. Now it's the third seed Nutter Butters against our 6th seed Peanut Butter. Crackers from Ritz. Nabisco versus Ritz. We always had these in our house. I don't know if it was like an emergency thing like just in case we needed like. a really calorie dense food or if we just really liked them.

you would come over to my house and you would eat them. I remember those days. It is claimed that they are the best selling peanut butter sandwich cookie in. the United States with around a billion estimated eaten every year. A billion with a B. They taste great. They. have a wonderful form factor. It's like a peanut. With some nice sugary peanut butter in the middle. Is the cookie itself peanut butter flavored? I should hope so. It's buttery flavored.

The other thing I like about it is that it's very dippable like an Oreo. It loves milk. I can't tell but. it tastes good. I'm choking again just like yesterday. Oh gosh. I don't know what it is. Maybe I'm allergic. What does that feel like Charlie? Feels like. Feels pretty bad. Feels pretty bad. Feels like your whole body wants to attack you for no reason. You're not having a reaction. So these. were originally called Nabs because they were also made by.

And they are made by Nabisco. Look how dark the peanut butter is. If I had to imagine these from memory the crackers would be darker and the. peanut butter would be lighter. It's like it's burnt almost. I got to say it has a little. It tastes burnt. Burnt taste to it. That's because it comes from hell. I don't like these. I thought these were better than this. If we were fishing and this is all we had to eat we would be thinking these were. great. Yeah. But we're not fishing right now. Now that we've compared it we don't like it.

So Nutter Butters. are moving on. All right bye. More like taking off the Ritz. Okay. Yeah. I hope he's okay. Sorry. Psychosomatic I think. I just think about peanut butter and I go. And that means. Ritz Peanut Butter Crackers. You are spread to me. Burn in shell.

It's a pun. Now our first seed Little Debbie Nutty Buddy up against the winner of the first. round peanut butter filled Snyder's pretzels. Now if you're the kind of person who's very principled. you might be saying hold on a second cats. What's the difference between candy. and snacks? Because. this is a bar a chocolate covered bar. How is that different than a candy bar?

And the reality is we don't really know. But here's my theory. You just can't buy this in an individually packaged thing. You have to buy the box of them. So when you put it in a box. It's a home snack. It becomes a snack but when it's just an individually wrapped bar it becomes a. candy. Does that seem convincing? Yeah I'm for it. It's a home snack. Is that what you said Link? Yeah it's a home snack. You cannot enjoy it out of the? You don't eat this on a road trip. Okay. Yeah.

You got to be within your own home. You can't buy it in one of those like gratuitously. large shelves when you're leaving the drugstore. These are good. I mean there's a reason why they're number one. They're classic. They used to be called Nutty Bars until 2016 and then they changed the name to. Nutty Buddy. But I've always called them Nutty Buddys. My papa used to always have these and when I was a kid I would pull. the wafers apart and just eat the peanut butter. Oh you would open it up and do weird things with it?

The peanut butter inside. That's out of character. Is some of the best. tasting peanut butter on the market. For nostalgia you can get the nutty but this is not an ad. You get the Nutty Buddy T-shirt if that's what you really want. They taste like they super. It's not peanut butter. It's like beyond peanut butter. And I don't mean you know what I'm saying? I mean it's sugary. It becomes its own thing. But like. are you like I'm in a peanut butter mood and I want these? They taste good but it's very wafer forward. It's a little too much wafer for me.

So I'm weighing nostalgia versus like. the salty. punch pack and crunch. of these Snyder's. You're really left with the peanut butter taste after you eat these. You get the salt on the outside of the pretzel. then it becomes a peanut butter thing and you would think you just ate. Peanut butter. And it's squarely a snack. Squarely? There's no yeah this is like crossing lines. You said something about not eating it at home or eating this. A home snack.

I'm confused. You confused me. Yep. All right Charlie we're getting rid of the number one. Number one seed upset time. Nutty buddy. We don't even care. Goodbye. Goodbye Nutty Buddy. With friends like that who needs enemies you know what I mean? Are you allergic to wafers as well? No I can have a wafer. I take one at church every week. Very religious this guy. Yeah he is. Yeah. I appreciate that. And that means Nutty Buddys. Sorry you're spread to me. Oh boo.

Sporked has taste tested and ranked the eight best peanut butters and now they. have a new ranking of the best natural peanut butters. Go to sporked. com and read the full ranking. I wonder what they love. We got our second seed over here. Tagalong Girl Scout cookies up against the winner. of our last round the Nutter Butters. Clearly the best. Girl Scout cookie. Girl Scout cookie. It's a crunchy little wafer. The peanut butter doesn't go all the way to the edge.

There's like. a hollowed out dollop in the middle. A hollow dollop. But the peanut butter is very soft. The chocolate is also very soft yet it's a subtle. It's a great cookie. But what kind of peanut butter experience is it? A good one. I can tell you right now that. this is nothing but a peanut butter experience over here. And I think that's the big difference. It's a peanut experience almost. You would think you're eating a peanut if you didn't look closely. You can also dip those in milk and get the cookie.

to sop up some milk but this still wins on that front as well. This is a better peanut butter experience. I love it. Because it's pure. It's pure peanut butter. And this is just tagging along. Sorry girls. You're great. And this is the best. But we're moving Nutter Butter along. All right Nutter Butter wins. You allergic to Girl Scouts too? I can have Thin Mints but I can't have the Tagalongs. No.

I'll die if I have those but you make a good argument for can I try one? Yeah give it. Let's just chance it. Well we only need you for one more round then you can try. Okay. We'll do Russian roulette with peanuts afterwards. Yeah that'll be fun. Sorry girls. Tagalongs spread to me. Sorry Girls. That's a YouTube channel we've invested. Oh it is. Yeah yeah yeah. I like that. It was a subtle promo. We're down to the finals.

The five seed peanut butter filled Snyder's pretzels. Pretzels. Pretzabels. And the three seed Nutter Butters. This is tough dude. This is tough. I mean yesterday it seemed obvious by. the time we got here. that the. salty versus the sweet. There's a lot to love about these pretzels man. I know. I love the fact that it starts as the salty experience and it becomes an almost. exclusively. peanut butter experience at the end. I don't even like pretzels that much but I found myself craving these.

You can put them out in a bowl and just like snack on them. You can put them in a bowl? It's very snackable. I mean how often do you see Nutter Butters? In a bowl? Just out in a bowl? You're right about that. I wouldn't do it. But when it comes to like a champion of peanutified. snackiness. It's very peanut buttery. Remember the Nutter Udder we ate? Yeah. We sucked on that teat. and got the best liquid version of a Nutter Butter and one of the best.

experiences I've ever had at this desk. I really appreciate these. I love the way it looks. I love what it evokes. I love the taste. But I got to be honest with you. Can you dip it? I love the dippableness. I think I come back to the pretzels because of the pure unadulterated peanut. butter experience that it happens the journey that it takes my mouth on. There is a pretzel experience. and a peanut experience. This is. nothing but a peanut butter experience. It's kind of a cookie experience though too. But the cookie is peanutty.

Okay so you're going with Nutter Butters? I really thought you were going to go with me. I'm sticking to Snyder's man. I don't love doing a tiebreaker in the last round because I l don't love seeding. our power. But we're going to seed it. Well that's what we have to do when we can't agree. It's not all about us. Stevie we need to talk. Choking again! Charlie cannot join you. No I can't. Come on Charlie. Man up Charlie. No I decided I want to live. So. you guys just have to pick one. You're going to have to just pick one.

Well I do have a woman. that could help you out. Mrs. Peanut please. Yes. Oh dear God it's the angel of death. I did see you over there. Well I am your corporate overlord so you might want. I'm going to have a discussion with you gentlemen. So you're going to basically eat yourself? Go for it. I guess there is no people butter. Well I'm rich so I don't care.

Okay. Kind of light. Remind you of a. connection with your ex hub? Oh I didn't use my mouth for any of that. And now we have the. Going to have to give me a larger percentage of the company. Yeah yeah. What are these? This is the Snyder's. You don't even know? Filled pieces.

Okay so like a pretzel with some peanut butter inside. You've been over there the whole time. You don't know what this is? I don't have to know. No you don't. Oh this is tough. Yeah look at the waistline on this puppy. That one. Yeah we should have known. The one that's shaped like a peanut. And we cannot. be sad about it. You can't be sad. Yeah. Listen I'm not too sad about it. All right Charlie. What won? Well the first. Do you mind if I just have a little? Are we burying this?

I'd like to meet like the people. Oh yeah. Oh I don't know about this. No no no no. Good people that you know. that we work with. So. nice to meet you. Thank you so much for the health care. I think you're lying about your allergy. I don't know what's going to happen because Mrs. Peanut just definitely touched Charlie. Yep he's gonna die but we don't need him anymore. But you know what? Snyder's filled pieces.
