We Rate EVERY Black Food

We're eating every black food. Let's talk about that. Good Mythical Morning! And welcome to the final episode of Season 26! Wow. Hey, this season we shared a casket. Yeah, we did. We've eaten meals of the likes of Orville.

Peck and Ted Danson. Hey! We even gave Rhett a freakishly oversized chin. It's gone now, but all good things must come to an end. But lest ye fret, next week, we're still gonna be right. here on this very channel, dropping brand new best. ofs, marathons, and more, and gonna be doing that. for two weeks on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, and. then we're gonna be back with the premiere of season 27. On January 6th! Woo! So, as we fade to black on yet another incredible.

season, we thought it only made sense to eat every black. food and decide the best. We're also doing it because. We're goth now. Deal with it. It's time for Getting Colorful, Black Edition. Okay boys, today you're going to try 29 different. foods that are black, and we are sticking to foods. that are naturally black, so no Oreos or the like.

You'll give each food a score of 1 to 100 based on your. initial reactions to decide which is the best in the end. And of course, in case you need a palate cleanser. Oh, I didn't mean to step on the beautiful artwork, but you do have black water. Oh, black water. It's not Coke. And I've got a scoring chart here. Um, thank you for your help with this, team. I am going into, what, a black hole? And I have black hair. Completely black hair. Which is nice. Remember those days? Actually, I don't.

Oh, good. I have a scoring aid. Ha ha ha. It's a phone not connected to anything. 9 1 1, I don't know how this works. Yes, and no one of a certain age does either. It's a phone. Okay, our first category is fruits, starting. with blackberries. Oh. Oh, I love blackberries. Oh man, takes me back to those days we'd find a blackberry.

patch out in the woods. We'd find a blackberry patch in the woods. Go crazy! And sometimes it wouldn't be the right time of year. Sometimes they'd be red. And sometimes we would go back and they'd be reddy. And boy, that was the moment. This is one of the best fruits. The best berry. 83. I'm gonna give this a 95. Whoa, he loves blackberry. Put it in a cobbler, put it in my mouth. Put it in anywhere and I'll be happy. Okay.

Oh. What is, what is that, though? We try to stay current on this show. Whoa, talk about tart. Good gracious. I like it. Sour, sweet, I've always wondered about these. I've had them in things, but I haven't had them in my mouth. I feel like it'd be good in a pie. You're leaking cause of your lip ring. Oh really? Yeah, is that blood? How does it work? How do you, I don't know how you eat with this thing. I don't know. I really like it. I'm gonna give it a solid 75. Um, that was really surprising.

I'm gonna give it an 80. Mulberries. Mulberries? Mul, look how little that is. They're so cute, but kinda well, they're not. cute, they're turdish. I'm so conflicted. It feels like a berry that has run through the. system of a wild cat. Yeah, it looks like scat that you would find on a trail. Not as juicy as I like my berries. Very dry. I don't even really like the taste to be honest with you, 43.

The taste is like bad fig. Uh, 40. Black fig. I give up on this. Black fig? Whoa, it's big. Is there a pit? No, it's all fig. Huh. I found a fig tree. in 1995. Good. I hope that's the end of your story. That's cool. That's all I needed to tell you.

All right. Good. Um, and you know what? It brings back memories and that's why I like. it, but not too much, 64. It's a bit flavorless and a disappointment. Yeah. I'm gonna give it, um, a 41. Black tamarind. That is chewy. Chewy. Sweet. Oh! Tangy. Mm! It's sour. It's like a natural fruit roll up, isn't it?

Really, yes. Really, yes. Thank you for saying that. Let me call somebody. That's helped me. 4 1 1, what's the info on, uh, what do we call it? Black tamarind. On black tamarind. It's like a fruit, they said it's like a. fruit roll up, natural. It's Mother Nature's fruit roll up. Ooh, get you some of that. 83. Raisins. Raisins are black.

Yeah. Raisins. They've been around almost as long as grapes. Thank you. Hey. Thank you. My friend just made a good joke. I'm gonna give that a nice, solid 70. I like raisins, but they're nothing to call me mama about. 59. That concludes the fruits category. The next category is legumes and veggies. Starting with black beans.

Oh, the black bean. Black bean singing in the dead of night. It might be the best bean. What? You think? Well, name a better bean. Well, I'm not the one to say. But if you're saying it's the best bean. I'm saying as a straight up bean that's not got. any seasoning on it. Black beans good. 78. I love it too. Um. I can't disagree with the bean man, 78. Black lentils. Oh, this is the lentils guy. See, I'm the lentil one.

The lentil one. Are you bringing, are you bringing the lentil one? With you? Bean boy bringing the lentil one. They're so mushy, that's why you like them. They're not as good as black beans, friend. I'll tell you that, right? No, they're not. But they're not bad, 65. I'll give it a 61. Black garlic. Oh, oh, whoa. So black garlic, yeah. You can just bite it?

Woo! Oh gosh. Woo! It's gone, forever. So it tastes. It's much more mild than regular garlic, like it's been. There's a sweeterness to it. Sweeterness. Sweeterness. Um, but, the consistency is like a gumdrop. In a good way, like it's like nature's gummy. It's like nature's gummy. Nature's gumdrop. We found nature's gummy. It's black garlic. At some point I'll figure out who this is.

Alright. Let them get a word in. They're getting all the information. Um, that's pretty good. I'm still, look at my face. I'm happy. It's better than regular garlic. Who knew? 76. I might give it a 77. I did. Black olives. Oh yes, mama. Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm. Ooh, that's cold. Mm, mm, mm, mm. It's better than I thought. I can't, I can't. There is something so beautiful.

This is weird, though. Alright, let me, I'll taste it, give it to me. Olives are great, and I think black olives. might be the best olive? I never thought about black beans being the. best bean and black olives being the best olive. I think it's perfect. Well, I'm gonna go ahead and give it a number. so you don't have to. I don't want you to. Hold on a second, he's thinking. Sit here and have to account for me and boost it. Yeah, yeah, that's just my friend, yeah. So I'm gonna tell you that I'm not, I'm not. gonna give it a zero. Yeah, he's got on a black turtleneck too. I'm not gonna give it.

Are you watching this? You know, I'll go so far as if you don't inflate your. number, I'll give it a 28. Gave it a 28, what do you think I should do? Do you think I should do what I wanted to do or do you think. I should do what I should do? 100, heh heh heh. Black corn. Black corn?! It's so big. What? I'm having to look at things because I didn't. know they existed. I know. I'm looking at everything.

Look at how big, oh my gosh, look how big. Oh, you know what this is like?! It's like an ogre tooth. If you go to a Peruvian restaurant and they. give you that big corns. Corn nuts?! Big natural corn nuts. Truck nuts. Corn truck. I like it. I don't, I don't like it. It's got the right kind of bland. 20. 73. Black trumpet mushroom. Oh. Oh.

Not bad. What would this go on? I don't know what, I don't like it. A weird bread. I like mushrooms and I do not like this mushroom. 24. Ugh. Hold on. It's getting a licorice taste. It's not good. I thought it was okay, but I think the. texture's what I like. It tastes medicinal. The taste is horrible. Twelve. That concludes the legumes and veggies category. The next category is seeds and seasonings.

Oh, seeds and seasonings? Starting with chia seeds. Now these, these will get, they'll get. Everywhere. They'll get big in your tummy. It's like the glitter of nature. Yeah, he just called chia seeds the glitter of nature. Do you like that? Oh, okay, well, we'll see how it turns out. Chia pudding, I love that. I'm gonna give it 71.

You like the taste of this? I like the effect of it. I like the effect of it, and I'm a fan. You're taking into account the effect of it. And I didn't hate what I had. It's tasteless to me, I'm gonna give it a 50. Poppy seeds. Same thing with these. But, Peppery. Instead of helping with fiber, they hurt. with um, a drug test. They're so peppery, I like them more. I think they have good flavor.

Okay, you're actually using the AI part of your brain. I like them more. I like them more. 70. Uh, 50. Black Sesame. Ooh. We had ice cream that was black sesame. ice cream one time. This is fun. I expect it to be nutty, peppery. Mmm. It's a little too concentrated when it's just in seed form. But it's, you could make a butter out of it, which. I just did in my mouth. I thought it was gonna be better. I had high hopes for this one. 60, 67.

Vanilla bean. Vanilla bean? What? That's not a bean. That's a stick. Ooh, and it's chewy. It's so strong. It's a very potent vanilla It's almost too much. It's like eating an air freshener. You can see how it would be good in small parts. It's like sucking a wick. Hey! Hey!

Huh? Suck my wick! He just told me to suck his wick. But it was a vanilla bean pun. We had just eaten a vanilla bean. Oh! You are watching. But you don't have sound except through this phone. You can't read lips. Well, you coulda just, okay. All right. Did you score it, or did you just talk about.

that you don't like it? Um, that's 30 for me. We forgot to score it. He's good. Yep, yep. 20. You gave it to him. You gave it to him. Black truffle. Oh, this is the more expensive truffle. Whoa! How much truffle is this? How much dollars? Nuh uh. It's just 300. Oh, we think it's cheaper than the, uh, than the more. expensive truffle, actually. That right there.

That is so good. It's good. It has to be, I mean, I wouldn't recommend this. No, I barely scraped it. That's what I did. Yeah, you just get a little. I love that truffle. That's some high fidelity potency there that if you. have it on you, well, you can accomplish anything. I'm gonna give it an 84. I'm giving it a 91. We're giving a lot of high scores. We like this stuff, man. We're into the black market. We are. Black salt.

It's a volcanic. Oh, it's nice right after that truffle. Ooh, it's so salty. It's as if it's just salt. It's almost as salty as salt. Uh, It's tough to taste salt as just salt. 50. I do like it though. 65. Peppercorn. Okay. I'm a big fan. Because I'm getting to be an old man.

You know when you're eating some salami? Oh! Oh! Good. And you get right on a peppercorn? Yes. That's the best part of salami. It's like the salami woke you up. I used to seek out those peppercorns. Oh, gosh. I love that! Right after the salt, right after the truffle. Thanks for choosing that order. Wow. Oh gosh, who chose that order? Um, good lord, um, Here's what, here's the deal, so we had. truffle, then we had salt, then we had pepper, we commented. on how we liked the order of that, it was almost like we. made a little three part meal in our mouths.

It was great. We're curious who thought of that, really? Okay, Who? They said it's between me and them. 84. Have I scored it yet? Nope. 81. You're kind of losing sight of your job here. That concludes. the seeds and seasonings category. The next category is sauces. Starting with squid ink. Oh gosh. It's thicker than you'd think. So what I know about squid ink is that it's tasteless, right?

No, no, no, no. It's not tasteless. It tastes like it comes out of a squid. Oh! Yeah. Oh! Yeah. Oh! Look at that! Yeah, yeah, yeah. He didn't know it would taste like squid. I did. Squid ink pasta! Yeah, he doesn't know that when they put it in. the squid. When you put it in pasta, it doesn't. It really dilutes it, yeah. He went straight in for it. Yeah, that's what happened. Oh, okay.

I mean, I just, I just did a little bit. Eughh. Good lord. Oh, uh, one. One. One. Balsamic vinegar. Ooh, I like this. Balsamic. Ooh. That's nice. Whoa, this vinegar's really doing it for me. 87. 88? Hooooyy.

Soy sauce. Soy sauce? It's so nice. How? Ah. I don't like soy sauce. But it's tough by itself. Yeah, it's just. But on rice? Have you ever taken rice, put butter and soy sauce on it? Uh uh. It's when you, it's when you, Don't, don't, we got. a, we got a job to do, man. Nobody's done it except me. Oh, okay, I got disconnected.

Uh, soy sauce is a 61. 27. Black vinegar. What? Didn't we just have? Uh, I've never had it. Not great. 28. Uh, 44. Molasses. Molasses. Oh, man. Oh! Is that blackstrap molasses? That's almost as thick as, uh what is it?

It's almost as thick as, uh. Glue? Itself. Elmer's. That's quite nice. I could take little spoonfuls of that right. before I go to bed. I gotta stick with 50. I just don't know. Oh, I love this. I mean, I'm gonna give it a 78. That concludes the sauces category, and now for your. favorite category, the miscellaneous category, starting with, Favorite category, could be anything. Caviar. So much on there.

Salty black balls. That's tough. That's real tough. Yep. It's good when it's like, on something else, but. by itself, it's a 28. 10. Black pudding sausage. Uh, why is it, It's got blood in it, I think. Why does it have, why, It's not that bad. It tastes like Christmas sausage.

But it is liver in there. Weird. Or blood or something. 37. Uh, I'll give it a 45. Century Egg. Oh! Okay. Uh. This is an egg that's been soyed. It's been left underground for a long time. Uh Uh. Nine. Uh Six. Uh, I'm getting a fever.

100 percent cacao dark chocolate. Okay. Alright, let me get ready. This is a superfood. Wow. So bitter. Wow. But it's good for you. Thirty three. Woo! I really like it. It needs something else besides cacao. So many black foods are super potent. Fifty. Like, it's the most potent color of food, I think.

Black licorice. Oh, here's your moment in the sun. Ugh. Mm. Mm. Mm. Oh. Ah. Uh huh. Why? It's like it was made for people that need to know. that they're still alive. I know what I want to do. But he's probably going to have a problem with. it because I did the same thing with black olives.

Well, and if that's the case, I have to go with zero. One hundred. I hate it. I hate it. That concludes the miscellaneous category. You have now tasted every black food and your. scores will be tabulated. To help you get in the Christmas spirit, we are. airing Mythical Holiday Marathons on Mythical 24 7. Oh, you don't know what that is? Well, it's our very own channel on Smart TVs.

Free for you streaming platforms like Roku, Amazon. Prime, Plex, and more. This marathon will be airing this weekend uh, so be. sure to tune in, all right? Uh, for more details on how to watch and if you can. watch on your television, head over to mythical24-7. com. Okay, we're gonna give you your top three foods to. try again and crown the top favorite by placing it on. the Mythical eating rainbow. But first, Rhett, your individual top favorites. were black olives and black licorice.

Yeah, look at you. And Link, yours was blackberries and. your collective least favorite was squid ink. The overall top three foods in no particular. order were blackberries. Yes. Black truffle. Yas! And balsamic vinegar. Yes. Well, you know what, we've co, we've covered all the. kinds of tastes that can have be had. And just visually. it kind looks like if you take a blackberry, Fruity, umamami. Yeah. And tangy. If you take a blackberry and you, and you make it like.

smaller, but yet bigger, it becomes a truffle. What's the juice under? A truffle? Truffle juice. And then, uh, the balsamic vinegarette here. Vinegar. Vinegar. Yes. All right. They're so different. What, what's one to do? The thing I like about blackberries is that you. really appreciate a good blackberry because you. can get a bad blackberry. It can be too mushy. They have a short window. Could be under ripe. They have a short window. Such a narrow window.

The window is not as small as a pear's window. But it's small enough to make you appreciate it. The pear window is seven minutes. Yeah. It's just ripe enough and not too ripe. Um, the black truffle. can go on things, and go in things, but eating. it on its own is just a wild thing to do. I licked it. Licking it in front of anyone, super wild thing to do. I'm sorry. So I, and it's, I like the expensiveness of it.

Yeah, yeah. The rarity, the, I guess the difficulty to acquire. and produce these things. Gotta have a pig. It involves a pig. To hunt it. I heard that's actually a myth. It's not a myth. No, no, I heard pigs do it, but pigs are not the main. finders of truffles anymore. So it's, okay, so it's not a myth. They use dogs or something, no, it's kinda. I'm arguing. that the truffle, as special as it is, needs to be third.

I'm not gonna argue with that. Alright. Cause on its own. Well there's no third. We'll just leave it there. It really needs to accompany something. Right. I mean, I think this is easy. I think this takes us back to those late summer evenings. Mm hmm. We'd be lost in the wood and we would hear my mom. calling from the back deck. Rhett! Rhett! Yeah, there's like three syllables in it. She didn't even call your name. She never said Rhett and Link. She knew if she found me, she found you. That's right. With a mouthful of blackberries.

Which is the best black food we've ever tasted. Good gosh. Oh, wow. Lordy, lordy, we're forty! It goes on the Mythical Eating Rainbow, right down. here in the blackness. God, stop it, stop it! Next to prunes and Taki's Blue Heat. All right, that is a wrap on season 26, but like. we said, yeah, we will be back Monday, and then.
