Surprising Foods Made By The Same Company
Today we find out which products are secretly sold by the same companies. Let's talk about that. Good. Mythical Morning. When you go to the grocery store. Don't you love to see all the beautiful options that await you in each aisle? A bit of healthy competition between companies to help drive. innovation. Oh, yeah, I sure do. Except it's all a lie. A shocking amount of the products we know and love are all sold.
by the same parent company. So today we expose them. It's time for Untangling the Family Tree of Capitalism. The Game. Okay, man muffins. You know Hidden Valley Ranch. But which of these two products is owned by the same parent company as the ranch? The correct product is hidden in the box between you. You have three lifelines you can use only once throughout the game.
I'll explain them if you want to use one. And you have to get at least half of these right to win the prize in the end. Rhett, are you there? Yes, I'm over here, Link, on the other side of that box. But I can smell you. You have ranch? I have ranch. Now, question. Can I see the ranch? Question for the judges. It's ranch. Can I look at the bottle and see what the parent company's called? You should not. We believe we have covered that. We're just gonna go with Hidden Valley and Rhett, I have.
Sharpie. over here. The marker. And I have. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, kills ninety-nine point nine percent of viruses and bacteria. But what about that point one percent? Don't they get stronger? Hold on. You need to focus. Evolution much? Focus. There's something in the box between us, and it's only one of these. Okay, so, if you made ranch, let's just say you started making ranch. So, we're two boys. We start a company, we start making ranch.
Is this the? Do you churn? I don't know. How do you make ranch? Hold on. Is the ranch out? Are you churning it? Oh, no, it's right here. Okay, so. There's the ranch. We start making ranch. We're like, oh, man, we're making so much of this white. liquid. We're. We need to clean it up. We're. We're popping the top. Oh, we can. Oh, we can squeeze it. Oh, what other things can we squeeze? Sharpies. No. No. Clorox bottles? Wipes? We can squeeze wipes out. We have a thing that has something white that comes out of the top of it.
What other things can we have that is white that comes out. of the top of something? I think that. Wipes. No, no, no. I think my logic is sound. I think that the Clorox and the wipes and the Sharpie should go together. The Clorox and the wipes and the sharpie. You said three things, and two of them were the same one. I did not. I did not say ranch. I said, I think that the Clorox. You said the Clorox and the wipes and the sharpie. Yes. Yes. So you think. what you're saying is that you disagree?
Yeah. Let's just put these two together. Okay. Can you give me a believable scenario? Because I talked about pushing things and white things coming out, and it made a lot of sense. Now you got to make a connection to markers and sharpies. I mean, sharpies and ranch. One day, I hope to be so famous that people will bring me ranch dressing. and ask me to sign it. Okay. No, no. Okay. I didn't say make a conception. And then I will buy both companies. Like an SAT conceptual relation.
Explain it from, like, a business. No, Rhett, yours is great. Let's go with the wipes. Okay, so we're going with wipes. Okay. You're not using any lifelines on this. Even though they're free and they don't cost you anything. We don't need them. Because Rhett had such a. Yeah, No, we don't need them. No, we don't need them. Okay. We are locked in. Clorox owns everything. You're saying Clorox? Yes. Go ahead and peek in that box, then. Rhett. Clorox. That's not a Sharpie. Everything.
Hey, buddy. So, yeah, Hidden Valley Ranch was invented in nineteen fifty-four at the. titular Hidden Valley Ranch. And it's been owned by the Clorox company since nineteen seventy-two. So it's clean? Everything. That ranch is clean, y'all. Rhett, what do you have over there? Baby food. Baby food banana. I got Gerber. Gerber. Give me the. Can I have the banana? Because that's what I want. I wanna eat banana.
Okay, what I meant was, what is your? What is your option? That smells good. I have Purina dog chow. Oh, taste that. Is that in the box? I have. Nair. hair removal lotion. That's weird. So, hair removal. Or dog food. Logic. I wanna hear it. Which is also owned by. baby food brand Gerber. Oh, the carrots. Baby's got bad taste.
Well, if I'm not mistaken, this is food for babies. This is food for dogs. And if you get them confused, it's probably gonna be okay. You know, you put the wrong thing in the wrong bag. Baby starts eating some kibble, it's not the end of the world. What specific type of dog food do you have? Purina. Purina. Purina? Purina. Is it. What's this? What is the state of the dog food? Not, like, where it's made, but. Complete adult with real chicken. Is it soft?
Is it hard? Is it dry? Yeah, it's dry. It's dry. Can you eat Nair? Katrina. Are you okay? Was that a laugh and a hiccup? I think. Katrina, hiccuped. It's okay. She's eating the kibble. Have some baby food. It'll cover it right up. Was that just a laugh or a hiccup? It was both. It was both. Okay, Link, your logic is sound, but I have another logic I want to throw at you. All right.
Hair removal. and baby food. If I'm making. baby food, I'm like, oh, this is so gelatinous. Oh, and, you know, late at night, you get a little. interesting in yourself. Interested in yourself. Yes. You end up rubbing this stuff on your body. You know what I'm saying? Now you got something wet, and slick on your body, and then you're like, what other wet and slick things can I put on my body? I can't get rid of my hair with this. Maybe you can. Maybe this baby food will take the hair off your body. Maybe the baby food does take the hair off your body.
And they just repackaged it and called it Nair and put women's. legs on it instead of babies, and the writers chose. dog food because they wanted you to fall for the logic of. The food on food. Food on food. So we are going. with. Nair. Nair. Pass it. You can't fool us. No lifeline needed again. We don't need lifelines because we have logic. All right, look in the box. No! No. Got us.
Hey, that was my fault, man. I led you astray. So Purina and Gerber are both brands under the mega conglomerate Nestlé, which owns a terrifying amount of other brands that we'll avoid in. case we want to play this again. Okay, fair enough. Okay. Okay. What you got over there? I have. a chicken sandwich, a Popeyes chicken sandwich. What? Why?
A chicken. You have a chicken? I have a chicken sandwich wrapper. Oh, my goodness. Take a bite, brother. Pass it back. Popeyes, huh? Oh. Oh, man. That is good. They did a good thing when they did this, but what? I got a Burger King sign. I got an Arby's sign. What? To be sure, we would have heard. if a freaking.
Popeyes. was owned. Thank you. Was owned. by Burger King. I've eaten quite a bit of it. Sorry. First of all, Arby's feels a little bit like. I would guess Arby's. On an island. No, I was gonna say the opposite. No, because Burger King. Who wants. If you own Burger King, do you really need to own. Popeyes? That's kind of greedy. But if you own Arby's, you need to own Popeyes. Okay, that's good logic. But also, they probably put a product. from one of these places in this.
Right? What are the lifelines? Your lifeline options. are. shake. Someone will come out and rattle the box for you to listen to the sound it makes. No need to do that. Smell. You may give the inside of the box one. single sniff, or yell. Chase will go to your dressing room and yell the right answer, and you have to try and hear it from the desk. If it's Burger King, I can smell it, so let's. Yeah. Yeah. Can we both smell or just one guy? You can both smell. One single smell.
Okay. And just so you know, we're gonna stick our noses into this little thing. We're gonna close our eyes, so we don't cheat. Okay. I'm going in. Ooh. I think I smell. I don't smell anything my way. I think I smelled Burger King. Dude, I didn't smell any char broil, anything. You think? I think I smelled a burger. Chicken Fries in there? I smelled a Burger King chicken sandwich. I smelled the mayonnaise and the chicken together.
Are you serious? Well, that's possible. Maybe I wanted to. I was trying to smell for char, I can't smell again? But your Arby's logic made sense to me. But if you smelled a Burger King chicken sandwich, how do you know you're not smelling an Arby's chicken sandwich? That's a good point. Because I didn't smell char. I'm gonna go with Arby's. Okay, I led you wrong last time. I'm going with you on this one. Arby's. Final answer. Let's see what's in the box. Dang it. Dang it. I smelled the freaking chicken sandwich.
I smelled the exact sandwich. I should have held strong. Can I bite it? Yeah, there you go. Yeah, so, Popeyes and Burger King are both owned by Restaurant Brands International, a fast food holding company that also owns Tim Hortons. What? Restaurant Brands International. is the name of the company that owns Burger King. and Popeyes? They're international. I just don't know how I feel about this. Popeyes and Burger King.
Popeyes have got much better chicken. Padding the same pockets? Yeah. Then why don't they put the Popeyes chicken sandwich. at Burger King? Cause it's the illusion of competition and options, Link. They want you to feel like you have choices, but you don't. Hey, you should check out votelikeabeast. com to prepare yourself for the twenty twenty-four elections.

Okay. Go to votelikeabeast. com. What you got over there, Rhett? Hey, little hint. Oh, come on, dude. Give me. This is my favorite ice cream. Ben and Jerry's. Ben and Jerry's. Ben and Jerry. Ben and Jerry and Jimmy. That's some great ice cream. Tonight Dough. Is it owned by. Well, I guess. Ben and Jerry. Do they also own. Trojan,
as in, condoms. Or do they also own. Vaseline? Petroleum jelly. Condoms, well, here. Okay, here's the thing. Let's say. we're the guys who are buying. the companies, right? We're the fat cats. Yeah, we are. Smoking our cigars. And we buy Ben and Jerry's, and we're celebrating late night, one night. We're just eating. a bunch of Ben and Jerry's. Scooping and passing.
Scooping and passing. Passing and scooping. And we're like, what do you want to buy next, Bob? Man, I want to. I need some petroleum jelly. I mean, what kind of? The petroleum jelly, you open it in the same way that you open ice cream. It's a byproduct. And you eat it in the same way that you eat ice cream. No, you don't. It's a byproduct of. oil, I think. And so is condoms. They're both oil. Because it's plastic? I mean, I guess it's rubber.
Sheepskin? You could use just sheepskin? You are a fat cat. So. you can put ice cream into an old vaseline container, and you can also probably put it into a condom. I think we need a lifeline. Let's do the yell thing with Chase. Okay, Chase, please vacate to the dressing room. Okay. All right. We're gonna be listening. He's either gonna say. Trojan or Vaseline. I don't know what he's gonna say.
All right, so. You drown him out. You guys laughed. They were laughing, because they could hear him, and then I couldn't hear him. Yeah. Did you hear it? No. Well, I heard you pristinely until everybody started laughing. You're like, the answer is. Everybody's like. I think, I heard him say Trojan condom. I heard him say that.
You did? But he might have said not. I think he said not. No, really? I think he said not Trojan condoms. You're closer to the door, so. Yeah, and I had my ears cupped. All right. And everything. Here we go. Yeah! Yeah, we did it. You tried to fool us. All right. Eat some to celebrate. All right. Oh, me too. Fooled you. Hey, eat some to celebrate.
Psych. Fooled me. So, Ben and Jerry's was bought twenty-four years ago by Unilever, the parent company that also owns Vaseline. However, in March of twenty twenty-four, Unilever announced it plans to sell the brand off as they. exit the ice cream business. entirely. Let's buy them. Let's buy them. Ben and Jerry's could be Rhett and Link. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What you got over there? Ooh, I see a corner of it.
Oh, hot and fresh and now donut. Oh, Krispy Kreme. Pride of the Carolinas. Is it. owned by the same people that own. Doctor Pepper? Or Cobalt, which makes drills, apparently. You don't mean just like. just cobalt, the mineral? No, I mean this thing. Oh, yes. The blue drill. The blue drills. That's not. exciting. I mean, Doctor Pepper and Krispy Kreme.
That's exciting. That's a party. Yeah. I'm inviting you back. If you bring those two things, if you bring over a drill, I'm like, what do you. Who do you think I am? We're gonna do some work? I don't know, Rhett. It's nice to have a drill, you know? Have you ever just tried to use a screwdriver? That sucks. We have a free lifeline. Maybe what happened was. Is they started out. and don't. And they owned a donuts that didn't have holes in them. And then they bought Cobalt.
sometime prior to nineteen thirty-seven. Okay. And then they put holes in the donuts. And that's how donuts were invented. They were invented by drilling out donuts without holes. Rhett. To make donuts. Rhett. That's the origin of donuts. Perfect sense. Rhett. Yes? Respectfully, I think what we're learning is that. parent companies are gobbling up these smaller companies. and there's no connection or synergy. But we should get somebody to shake the box. Yeah,
we got a shake lifeline. So, we wanna shake. And we're listening for. Doctor Pepper, which will slosh. Or a drill, which will knock. Shake, please. Shake it, shake it, shake it. now shake it. Did that sound like a drill to you? It sounded like a clangy box to me. It didn't sound like a Doctor Pepper. Unless it's Doctor Pepper in cans inside of a box. Can you get a box of Doctor Pepper?
Like a box of wine? Earlier, we guessed. You guessed that the dog food and the baby food were from the same place and you. were right and I talked you out of it. Now we're back to two food products and you're talking me out of it to. say that it is the drill place. So, do you think it's Doctor Pepper or the Cobalt? Based on the shake, it sounds like a box. I would have heard if it was Doctor Pepper. I heard no sloshing. I know that Doctor Pepper is separate from Coca-Cola and Pepsi. Okay, we're going with Cobalt then. Well,
that makes me think it could be Doctor Pepper. Just when I finally make a decision. Yeah. All right, let's just stick with the Cobalt. Okay. That's our guess. Oh, dang it. Look at that. It's so obvious. it fell over. Sloshed. So Krispy Kreme is owned by parent company JAB Holding, which owns several fast casual food brands as well as Keurig Doctor Pepper, the company best known for making K-Cups, as well as a bunch of popular drink brands like Doctor Pepper.
It's one big web of companies owning companies, and unfortunately, you've lost. And. if you had won, we had a big money making opportunity for you. Someone's here to pitch you on the next item to add to the Mythical Store. So. I'm going to go ahead and let him do that. You just can't implement it or act on it, so you just, you know, this is what you lost. Oh, gosh. Okay. Oh, Rhett, he's coming over on my side.
