Ep 314: The Mini Milk Manoeuvre

from CheapShow Hosted by CheapShow Pod

It’s the start of another year. As 2023 rolls in, Paul just isn’t in the mood to go back to making podcasts. As a result, Eli is going to have to do something a little different this week to get Paul in the right frame of mind. What Eli has planned is to have Paul, in a twist to the usual format, take the blind taste test challenge in a round of Off Brand/Brand Off… Or is it Brand Off/Off Brand? Ash Frith brought a few “knock off” gummies to the Xmas party, but now the cheap chaps have the chance to test them against the real thing. Will Paul be able to guess the Percy Pigs from the Leo Lions and the Twinnies from the Squashies? Elsewhere in the podcast, there are a few other Xmas party leftovers to sample; a bag of Lay’s “Pizza Hut” crisps and a tin of Mountain Dew “VooDew”. Yup, it’s definitely a “let’s eat the leftovers” kind of a show! Happy New Year!

I don't want to go back to school. You've got to go back to school, Paul. I don't want to go back to school. Start again.

It's no, start, no. That's a terrible way. I'm not doing a podcast. That doesn't fit in before I wanted to say to everyone.

I don't care about what you want. I need to say some things, Paul. I've made some realizations. I'm not going to cheap show university for another semester, Daddy.

You're going to make me go back to boarding school, mama. I'm not either of your parents. And I won't take that role in your life now. But since we need to communicate, this is one of the things, Paul.

This is one of the things. We need to communicate as adult to adult. We need to start doing that. Paul, be happy.

Hello, everybody. I'm Eli Silverman. Happy New Year to the listeners of the podcast. Paul Ganon is over at the table for me, as always.

Not doing a podcast? It's a new year. It's a new time. I've come to some realizations.

Eli Silverman, a resident super taster on cheap show. And I've got some things to say. OK? When we were doing the Office of Christmas Party, and I was playing the role of Sexy Santa, a sex worker Santa, I had a little realization when that was happening.

I thought to myself, I wish I was this character I've made up, completely hairless from the neck down and oiled. Wait, quick question. When did you decide he was hairless from the neck down? That's something you added later.

I think that was implied quite heavily by the improvisation I did at the time. I mean, to me, Santi would need the beard. So yeah, neck down would make conceptually sense. Even your balls.

Absolutely. The whole area. The whole ball. Wax to a high shine.

OK. Back, back, back and whack crack. So I just want to make an applause to you, Paul. Back, back and saw Quack.

What was it? It was the whole area was very much waxed, oiled, even inside of the rectal passage, slightly. So what I wanted to say to you. Yeah, cool.

I just realized then there's some things I've been bottling under. And by swearing and doing nonsense vocalizations on the pod, weekly, that's, you know, I'm bottling something down. And I need to stop with these diversions, stop with these blocks in my presentation. So from now on, Paul, I'm going to talk with clean, decent language, OK?

And I will not invent or coin new words on the fly. Good. This is why I want to hear. I want to podcast that.

I can't do it. Well, a second ago, you weren't saying that. You were saying I don't want to go back to poopy school. So I apologize to everyone for the last seven years of absolute mouth garbage from me.

Oh, this is such a delight to him. Right? In that case, I'm engaged. I want to be in this podcast.

That's fine. Happy New Year, everybody. Happy New Year. It's a new day.

I'm glad you asked that normal people can listen to. It's exciting for me. I can do it. I'm glad you excited.

I keep that energy up. Yes, Paul. Because I've got one thing I've discovered. Yeah.

And I think it's a real breakthrough. And it's going to come on, ladies and gentlemen. You know where this is going. I know where this is going.

I'm playing along, but we all know where this is going. It's something like, no. Everybody sit back and relax. Well, now the flap flaps gets this gag out.

Come on. It's not a gag. This is something I've actually discovered, which I think. Come on.

It could be a key to other stuff. And it could be a breakthrough for us, Paul. I've got a list here, Paul. It's something where you like.

And it will still have a lot of meaning and a lot of resonance. It's like a magic talisman of four corners, the square four corners of something that can open up meaning, open up narrative, open up storytelling, and can bring us together as a friend. Oh, fucking minutes of this. It's something I've discovered.

And I just want to I want to premiere it here with you on our podcast. OK, there'll be no more nonsense. My mouth noises from me. Yeah, no good or dirty talk.

OK, I don't do that anymore. Good. You mad. I'm post-sex santa silverman and post-sex santa silverman.

I'm post-sex santa silverman. I can say, already, we don't always post-sex say I feel. But I don't know. He doesn't have a will.

He doesn't have a will. He doesn't have his nails. His nails. No, none of that.

Right. These four words, Paul. Yeah, I challenge you to come up with a combination of these words that doesn't have a rich resonant meaning that everyone can enjoy as a guy to their life, as a guy to going forward with their life. The four words.

You fucking tedious cums. Hurry up. I've got puppet. Yes.

I've got two. Word two, his finger. Word three, his bum. Word four, my.

Finger puppet, my bum. Hey! It's not good. It's not good.

It's not good. Bum finger, my puppet. Yeah! Anyway, you like it, mate.

My puppet, bum fingers. I'll tell you that maybe there's one more. Bum finger puppet, my. No.

I'd say, if you put my at the end, you have to say it properly. So, bum finger puppet. My. No, go my.

I don't know why. Yeah. So it works every single way. Yeah.

Finger bum puppet, my. What about puppet finger, bum my. That's it. Welcome to Chief Show Ladies' job.

No, we don't. I have one other thing I want to say. This is not a cold open. I have one other thing.

It's not a wet, dub, tepid open. Yeah. We've done all those. We've done them all.

Has the best comedy ever. Has the best comedy systemically gone for everyone, Paul? I think we've reached the bottom of the list. Now, no.

I would like to say welcome to Chief Show. It's a big thing, isn't it? Yeah? He's a big thing, right?

But I feel like I've come up with something here and I know you can help me with this. Oh, I don't want to do this, but go. I'd like to be. Under the sea in a...

Robs-gobbe. Robs-gar. No say that words. You can't.

I'll be the mouth-nose man. Now, he always does food-based things. Why is this still going on? Its seven minutes.

You haven't heard my thing. Is this not something we can carry on after the credits? Go on then. Oh no, because there's no build up now.

I was like, I'm over that moment two minutes ago. We could have got into the credits after we went, reee, it was a good gag and we giggled. But now it's just taking a dive. The driver took his eyes off the wheel.

It swerved into an embankment. Ricocheted off the wall, spanned round, closing traffic in both directions. Doggy hit, doggy hit the back wheel. Scrooped, it's head across this ground.

And now I'm liking it. And now there's screaming and ambulance on the way. Don't do it, dog, screaming, smirry dog. Smirry, I see, smirry dog.

Eli ranking. OK, just welcome, please. Please, welcome to Cheep Show. Fingerpappy, up my bar.

I hate you and your fucking moodle posty. Is this the fact that Cheep Show you're going to have to learn the fucking except? Cheep Show. Cheep Show.

It's the price of shine. You like silver, the Cheep Show. And a girl and a nuzzle. Right, well that looks the termable fucking cold open we've ever done.

We've got so much good content coming up for all the listeners in the show. What do we have coming up in the show? We're back in the saddle. And today it's what I like to call a leftovers episode.

Because we had so many leftovers from the Christmas party, Eli. So many things we couldn't even broach, let alone taste. I'm quite surprised I didn't actually vomit. Because that pink man, dead man's finger thing.

That's fucking disgusting. I really hated that rum and all that stuff. Fucking, whatever that drink was with the other car. What was it called?

They fucking grim. Disgusting fucking drink. They found Sani. I was so proud of that fact that they love him.

I didn't want to insult them by saying this. He's literally drinking warm vomit. Yeah, no, no, you know what, warm. You know that kind of belly-ren it kind of thing.

Belly-ren it, belly-ren it thing. So today's episode is made up of leftovers. We've got some snacks and nibble on, some drinks to test, and in a twist of the usual format, we have an off-brand brand off. I myself will be the super taster.

So it's not called off-brand brand off-brand off-brand. Yeah! Brand off-brand off-brand. New segment, everyone.

That's what's coming up. And I'll be the master. I'll be strict. Fucking...

Sorry, you were done looking me like that. I've got a bit to do. Mate, this is not our best. We need to stop betting.

Oh, as a new episode for the new year, we need to be better. Well, let me, I woke up this morning and I was inspired. Come up, Paul. And I thought, we don't think I could, she always does food things, yeah?

He takes a well-known song and he replaces it with food. Like, bologna. Now, I can, I am premiering right now my new novelty song superstar character, Creepy E. Yeah?

She's a salad lover. She's got a cucumber, believe it. She likes some onions. Before you know it, she'll have tossed a salad.

She's a kind of girl who likes to... Dine on things and slice up. And I believe it. Come on.

She's a salad lover. She likes cucumber and lettuce. She likes the umber. Didn't work as well on reflection.

I got one. I like my broth. Stu, Stu, Stu, you'll yum yum. Stu, yum yum.

There's a stew that is on my mind. All the time. Stu, Stu, Stu, yum yum. I put beef in it and a bit of brine.

Oh, leeks and wine. Stu, Stu, Stu, yum yum yum. Come on, weird owl. No, we can't just have, we can't rip off a guy.

Well, he's so good. Why is he so good? People love him. I like that Craig's list, too.

He's a great comedy paradiest. And that's all that matters to the sake of this conversation. Because this is not a weird owl. I bet it's a pod.

All right. Maybe it should be. No, I bet there are. I bet there are.

I mean, you can toss that pod, Catawak, and Marillion. You know what I mean? How long have you gone about Marillion for? I remember one day.

It is. Anyway, I'm now launching my podcast about the band, The Jets. Episode 1, Crush on You. That's all the episodes you did.

That's a pretty good one, it wonder. You know what? There's one in the atmosphere. When you head, it sounds better than when you actually listen to it.

Often, it's because there's a sort of section of the song on either the verse or the chorus, which you have no recollection of at all. No. And you go, oh, yeah. Welcome to Cheek Show, the Comedy Comedy Podcast.

We're E-Lion I'm with the Comedy Comedy. Comedy, Comedy. The Comedy Comedy. The Comedy Comedy Podcast where E-Lion I go for the Boggins and Powerlands and Showery Shops are great.

And we bring out what we can find amongst that trash and present it as treasure for you to enjoy. It's part nostalgia, part brick of brack, part taste sensation. Ooh, yeah. We're here in 2023.

It's off. First episode of the year. Ooh, it's hot sauce mama. Ah, there's no hot sauce to this week.

You've got nothing. You've got nothing. How about this, right? There we go.

Moment of honesty from Paul, everyone. I'm just going to put it out there, right? I will make mouth noises, by the way. That was a joke.

No. You've got to stand by your words. No, I already did a bit with this mere dog, which I want to refer to. It's a scrooge.

Anyway, what was I saying? Yeah, no, it's just been one of those Christmases in New Year's where I thought I'd all the time to relax. And then there was no time to relax. And then when I got up to day, and it was like, cheap show time, I was like, ah, fuck cheap show.

Fuck it. Yeah, we got to haul ourselves into this year, Paul. Hey, look, we've got some big things planned for this year, actually. We've got the big wedding.

That's going to be a big event. We've got, we're going to do a vinyl album this year. I'll put the foot down. I'm going to do that.

We are. Do you see there was an article about a sort of smallish vinyl pressing company up north who say they're booming, because they make records for people? Oh, really? Perhaps we should look that up.

And hey, because you're looking for a, you haven't made your mind up about what company we'd go with. No, because we need a limited print, like $200, $300, $300, and the idea is we're going to give some away to charity shops and then everyone else can buy them and stuff. That'd be so good. Just stick them in charity shops.

Random, random. Like a magic ticket, like a Willy Wonka thing. Yeah, if you found it, we should go drop them, send them out round, go out to Barnet. I'll go as far as Barnet.

Yeah. Where's our favourite hotspot? We'll go to Mozzarella Hill and put a Barnet in Buzzwell Hill, East Finchley. Maybe I'll go to Cambridge and put one back in those Cambridge shops.

I know, the room though, the Allen's in East Finchley is shutting. Is it? I have to shake. He's blaming him.

No, don't get it. I'm sure the lockdown has been on his business. Possibly. I don't know what he's saying.

Unless he sells online, does he have an online face? I think you have to, but I think that wasn't the main thing with him. I think he's just been doing it. He's probably saved some money.

He's been a tireless. Maybe we should take over the shop. If you look into that, I don't want to work in record retail. I give you two.

I can't do it. I think about many people you could sneer at for buying albums. I wouldn't be like that. You wouldn't be like that.

If people came in and asked for Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon, I'd tell you to fuck off. Why? What's wrong with that? It's over there.

It's over there. Right, let's do this. Let's roleplay it. It's open with a shop.

I don't know why you're knocking. Hello, sir. That's the woodpecker on my head. I can't get rid of him.

What's he called? His name is Filthy Sid. Filthy Sid, what's I called? I can see now.

Yeah. Thank you. Filthy Sid. Anyway, I've come in to buy a record.

Oh, I've actually not allowed pets in the... Is my ear support helpful? What does he help me with? Tap in your head.

I can see he does that. Why does that help with? Fuck off, no, is he? Why does he have to swear?

Fuck off, no, is he? I can't. Stop it. Fuck off, no, is he?

You're being a dnary, fuck. Anyway, I'd like to buy an album. I've recently bought one of those... The album's here.

That's a record show. A high-end, £30 record player in a suitcase. Oh, really? Yeah, with a horrible plastic stylus.

And I would love to buy... I'm thinking one of those kind of song albums I'd rate. Hold off your fleetwood, Max Room, or Diastrate, or... We don't know that mainstream shit.

You fucking sellouts. But ever you can't join the club. Fuck you, bitch. I'm going to fucking throttle that bird as well.

Don't get these white support birds. You can't do that. Fuck you, he's going to need his own. He's going to need his own.

Get out of my shot. Get out of the shot. I'm going to put this on one star. Go to HMV if you want that.

They're all closed crap. And they only have now albums reprinted for £40. With the best of Queen. Try Sainsbury's.

They'll give you a nice brand new copy of Rumors. I'll be putting a one star review on Yelp about this. Take that filthy animal who... I'm going to fuck you up, buddy.

Fuck you up. Leave. That's someone trying to get into your shot. No, I didn't lock the door.

I didn't lock the door. Anyway, I'll go. Take that bird with you. You better not fucking press me again, buddy, buddy.

See, it's a pleasure. That was our comedy situation for you to start off the new year. I hope you enjoyed that. Oh, come on, let's do a segment.

We'll pick her again. No, no, no, no. Shitty, sidd. Sidd.

It's dirty, sidd. I remember it when I edited it. I listened back. Anyway, what a great beginning to this episode.

What do you want to start with today? Should we start with the off-brand off-brand off-brand off-brand off? Do you hear any admin to do? A brand off-off off-off off-off.

All the tickets for the live show. No, brand-brand-off off-off. We're probably going to have bad news. We're probably going to have bad news.

We're probably going to have bad news. What else? We got the big show. Oh, we're going abroad this year.

Might be the episode abroad this year. Please. I'd like you to stroke my beef off. I've got a struggle on this off-off.

I've got a fucking dream-assent struggle off. You've got a stroke-y rough. Don't take that burn out there. Get that burn out there.

Get that burn. And now for averse. Brand off-off-brand with a new, more romantic and chilled intro theme. T-t-t-t-off.

Brand off-brand. T-t-t-off. Brand off-brand. T-t-t-off.

Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand.

Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand. Brand off-brand.

All right. You can stop being panicked now. That's right. It's noisy street.

I'veribed. You can calm down. I'veribed. So this is the part of the show where we take leave.

I'veribed off. I will smash that cannon to your arse all in a minute. It's the first threat of the new year. He's threatened me with violence so we won it.

It's back. He's back. He's back. He's back.

once with kick, I'll insert the whole tin up your anal cavity. Oh, shake it up. Shake you up. Shake you up.

Couldn't proper. Yeah. And then pull the ring piece out and it will shoot out. And then you go flying off into moons into moons.

Now we're doing a reverse of brand, brand off called brand off off brand. Yes. Brand off off brand and Paul, usually in this segment, the resident super taster myself, Eli Silverman on the pod, I usually will be blindfolded and then I compare the taste of an on brand product, such as mayonnaise, let's just make a helmet, a technical and then a silver branded one and I compare that to a supermarket one, blind taste test. And then I say two things.

And this is what I'm going to expect from you Paul, to when you taste our items. I want you to tell me which one you think is the genuine one and which you think is the knock off. Yeah. And also which you actually prefer.

And I want tasting notes as we go. OK. Is that too much? We can do that.

I've seen it from this side before Silverman. I'm now crossing over the garden fence into the other garden where I will be donning the blindfold and Eli will be making sure the goodies are given to me in a fair and just manner now. Today we are doing gummies and we were informed by Mr Ashford who came to our parking that he bought off you gummies for us as an off brand way. He didn't bring the branded ones.

So we put it aside and said we come back to it in the new year. So we are dealing with gummies today, which is my forte. It's your forte. You like a gummy.

Is that what you say? That's your favourite category of confectionery? I would happily agree with that statement. Is ice cream a confectionery?

It kind of blurs, doesn't it? Is it a dish? Is it a dessert dish like a cake or a pudding? Or is it a confectionery such as a chocolate or a sweetie?

Think about it. In a box, in a tub, scoop, scoop. That's maybe more of a dessert, right? When it's on a stick mate.

It's got to see this confectionery. That's what I'm saying. Isn't it funny how it kind of straddles my category? If it's in a cone or a stick, I think that counts as confectionery.

Yeah, like a magnum. Yeah. Or a zoom. A zoom.

Lullies. Yeah. What's an ice cream? Oh, like a mini milks.

You don't see them around it. They're nice, aren't they? They still have to put them on my bum-hole. He didn't, did you really?

He didn't use the Lisa Stanis fields. I used to take seven mini milks, right? Unwrap them and place them on a plank of wood. Yes.

Milk, tube up, right? Milk, tube up. Because they're little stick of ice cream milk. It's like a calypo, but with milk frozen ice cream.

It's a mother frozen milk flavour. But it's like a tube. Yeah, it's a tube of ice cream. It doesn't have any attached milk tube.

Whatever. Well, I'm trying to follow you. What are you going to do with this, Paul? I've attached these seven mini milks to a plank of wood.

What configuration are they attached? They're evenly spaced out about. There's some milk tubes. I'm just wondering about that.

There's just a mini milks tubes. The pop stick is screwed into the wooden plank, leaving the milk shaft of dessert. It's closed in the facing up. I think I can see where this is coming out.

There's about a six to eight inch gap between each one of this board, right? Then I take off my pads, trousers first, and then the underwear, revealing my eager bottom to the world, right? My eager keen bottom. And then...

We're going to record this. And then I get a record player up, and I find a nice children's album. Maybe Jolly Nursery Rhymes or Kids Party. And I put that on for a nice jolly song.

Here we go down the woods today. Oh, you know, the ten-year-old's pick. If you go down to the woods today. And basically, I timed the rhythm of the song to...

My favorite... Press this down upon the milk mini milk, and then it enters me right up until I reach the board itself. And I go deep down, and then I pull the milk tube up into my sink there, and swallow it whole. That's one.

Swallow it back into your arse. If you go down to the woods today, you better go in. This guy's shunk. If you go down to the woods today, you better go in.

This guy's shunk because every day, whatever they want, shunk, they're going to gather dirt. Any other... Any other... They shunk the ten-year-old's pick.

Nick, shunk, shunk, shunk. And then I do. Can I ask? And then there's a great big load of mini-mills in my intestinal tract.

And then it all begins to warm up, right? It all begins to warm up. I think you are in danger of having hypothermia. No, no, no.

You've got ice, essentially, inside your body. Yes. But you see, the inside of me is very, very bored. It's not a doctor.

Oh, there's a doctor on standby. Okay. And is this done in? How are you ensuring that these mini-mills remain rigid for the duration?

Honestly, they don't have to. They don't have to. Once they're inside my system, they begin to melt. Yes, we went to get into it.

Have you got an nasty gaping arse? First of all, you don't just start with 12 rows of mini-mills. You start with one and you work from there, right? You work your way up.

You have to work your way up. You can't just dive into eight because you're dangerous. You'll throw, you'll get frostbite or whatever it is in your bumble, right? If you have an frostbite on the bumble, it's not fun.

You start with one and you work on it. Then you go up to two and then you get to two. We could do 43 in a session. Anyway, it gets inside.

It warms up. Then I go into what I like to call slushy mode. I just slightly spread my legs. I just billy-boliced out.

I let the whole world see mini-mills trickle down the thigh, down my leg into a selection of tiny empty, yoght pots that I have collected. Once they're all full of my ass leg thigh-dripage system, distilling it almost. Give it like a distilling process. I don't know.

You've got the yoght, right? And the yoght and these little pots. I see what they are. They're totally melted ice cream.

You're talking about yoght pots. You eat before this happens? Is this stuff up there? No, I have to starve myself for a day.

It's just a good combination. There's no good stomach. So you're getting- No, no, no, no, no. There's no contamination.

So you're getting- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's just a stomach-crenid. So you're getting- So you're getting stomach-crenid. Yeah.

Oh, it's gristle. It's Tommy-Tummy-Rennet and Mini-Milk concoction. It goes all the way down my leg. We've reached the point down to my little pot.

We've reached the point now. We've reached the point now. I think we should go in. And once that's happened, why?

It's back to my working day. I'm moving on with my life. But all you need to know we like is that it's a system that works. So today on our reverse brand off brand, Paul B.

Gummies. The favourite, it's his forte he says. So let's see if he can distinguish these now. What?

Oh, yeah, Ashbro- Ashbro- Ashbro- Ashbro- Ashbro- Swizzles drumsticks squishy squashes. Not squishes what you're doing with them, or when you're making yogging for old people. Oh, moose. It's more than moose to be fair.

It's a moose, isn't it? It's a chocolate moose. It's a chocolate moose. More like a strawberry or vanilla, kind of.

chocolate milk it's like it's got the chocolate and flavors yeah they have a chocolate mini milk and a milk mini milk and a flavors of mini milk mini milk it's milk mini milk it's milk mini milk it's milk mini milk chocolate milk mini basically it's like a melted cotton polyton inside my tummy bomb now or one tummy I guess finger plop at my bum now drumstick I can have a tractor drumstick finger plop at my bum drumsticks they were a tooth destroying confectionery of our youth and they still exist today and they still can pull out a tooth they're like a lollipop but instead of a boiled sweet at the end like a thick sugary chew isn't it? It's a chew yes that was the air innovation I guess wasn't it? I could chew it all one of those kind of things well like a very compacted wambar on the end of a stick yeah yeah now but I didn't know they were made by swizzles were they always made by swizzles were known for those kind of things you know those kind of chalky lollipops as well as the glass ones as well as okay they did lollies yeah and they also I think they did palm of eyelids I think they did that company they do those kind of old school but I would venture poor that their sales of their traditional drumsticks have been utterly swamped by these swashies which came out a couple years ago now in Britain and they are the flavors of the drumstick was a jewel flavor it was a raspberry milk yeah it was like a two-tone sweet yeah you know it's pretty special yeah you know you get to a proper well thought out gag this RIP oh yeah so but these are the soft alternatives so that was always my problem with a drumstick it was really tooth destroying it was too tasty but tooth destroying and then really tough really chewy yeah now they've had these squashes which are traditional but they've got three other flavors have come out I think so there's a rhubarb and something sour apple one was no blueberry one there's a bubble gum bubble gum and blueberry or something yes anyway in response to these are pure mouth crack let me just say I have you ever gone through yes yeah I try not to because I'm trying to find my gummies yeah they really incredibly more rich so these are not so these are not cost again Ash 5th port to the office Christmas party they are they are company called Dominion and I also leave the meeting of a second knock off all can let me answer that in a second these are called Twilies raspberry and milk flavor and almost almost identical to the eye almost identical yeah very similar a kind of rubber eraser shaped gummy one hot pink one off white lozins shaped yeah domino it's like a domino really domino snare now so you're gonna be tasting one of those each blind port and I'm gonna do you what do you think the difference would be this is an idea it might be really difficult it might this one might be tricky but I think what's gonna get the fake one away is almost the kind of alliance and too much sugar that kind of almost chemically bite that those fake sweets too much too sweet you know the kind of flavor by getting chocolate where it's like it's joggly but there's something kind of I don't know it's hard to explain but like metallic okay so you're maybe an artificiality in the knockoff that you wouldn't expect and maybe the actual quality of the foamy gum that's I'm saying texture you think will be the texture difference I think the texture might give away in the high sugar coat and quotient okay so the prediction everyone will see when we come to the actual test in a second or two and so your next one is what's the next one next one very popular suite of recent years older it's been going for longer than the swash 50s apparently 15 years of Percy pig Percy pigs from of course Marks and Spencer or M&S food or whatever you want to call it and the interesting about Marks and Spencer's very briefly is they always supply their own stuff in store so it's very rare for you to go in and find a brand in there really because they have their M&S didn't do it at all until a few years ago when they started I remember reading a new story when they started selling brands yeah but they still thought that it was all their own stuff and it still mostly is I was there you go in there and 75% is definitely all Marks and Spencer's brand clothing and sandwiches and food and bread and everything wine and stuff so yeah so he has Percy pig which are a gummy which are a gummy of some sort what do you think of Percy pigs Paul they're all right I don't remember trying to flavor all right soft fruit yeah this was says Chewy fruit gone for this one because I got a knock off and knock off and made by the same company Dominion and these are Leo Strache Dominion is a strange name for a sweet company you'd expect it to be more like a sort of online avatar for some kind of S&M gang or something yeah I am full-staffed Dominion and I swank on you he's scalling at me this is all this is Aldi Brande Leo the lion okay so that must be Aldi Brande as well the the swashy knockoff must be Aldi Brande as well Dominion yes yeah yeah yeah both from Aldi so it's interesting that they're doing Leo Lion based on an M&S famous sweet because Percy pig a kind of infamous could they make cakes and shit as well with the brand on don't they in different types they've got they've expanded it I remember having a Percy pig years ago must have been almost 15 years ago when they first came out and loving them don't I'm on the back I'm the master of it's over here so we're gonna do you'll have your cheek you can you try to get a little sneaky because there's no point me she could have got a sneaky half in whether you know what I didn't think about the huff I was just trying to think about the bag to expediate the process of this you can have a half when you're doing the actual time here's the thing though right I think this is gonna be tougher than expected there's no reason for me to cheat because I'm not here to guess the right answer giving you my opinions on the flavor well there is a competitive aspect of it Paul you do want this is the first time you've done this yeah you do want to you do want to get a notch in the bed post yeah really yeah yes there is a an educational aspect to this segment always has been and we're looking if it's worth saving money on a super brand on a cheek of brand so give me the the blindfold which is a scaff this is a perfectly clean scarf I'm sure it's a perfectly clean scarf right and I shall be tying it oh I'm on my headphones off I got mother now I have no intention of cheating I don't believe it's fair I would never do that so I'm gonna make sure this is tight across my eyes oh yeah Paul just before we start this yeah any what's your expectations for these are the Percy pig versus the other line again it was gonna depend on texture because I think in my head to my memory the Percy pig ones are a kind of tougher tube ever so slightly so you think the knockoffs might be softer yeah okay interesting now we've also got the issue Paul yeah of the Percy the pigs and the leo lines being different shapes are they let me just see that they have a very marit this basically no no that's very strictly prohibited no I agree they the tongue braliness the Percy pig ones are shaped in the head of the character so it's like a kind of round circular pig head these are both these are two times as well yeah there's a little bit of a piece are sort of more darker pink and the face yeah and you know what the other line's gone for a total similar thing in that there are two two separate different colored bits in the same position so I don't think you will be able to tell it all right that's all right right that's all I'd like you to put it flat side into your mouth okay so the smooth side down on my toe there's no you know there's no questions about understandable tongue brailing these sweet I will not be tongue punching my way through this I promise you I'm right front of the mic I actually can't you are yeah welcome to my land of fear oh it's fucking bird right so shit we starting with Percy pig then should we start with it's you all right should we start with the other line Percy the pig okay I'm gonna put my hand out you put the smooth side down on my palm and I'll slide it into my mouth oh yeah you got a member or do you give them in that is also an important factor Eli I've got a warrior you've got to be tight on the fact I'm gonna be tight on the fact don't you want to pre-write these downs you can just making a little note for myself Paul don't worry thanks for your help but yeah so I've got a hand coming from mini milks now okay right you just say where mate and we'll start the process I'm handing you it you put your hand out this is flat I want you just it I'm gonna try putting in with a little contact with the snack as possible tongue bran it okay that's number one what are your thoughts as it goes down the garlic he's doing he's a master casing that I think this is the way to do it just take the whole thing into your garden one go and get it all down and then once he's swallowed I think we can have some thoughts first instincts it doesn't feel cheap it doesn't taste cheap it doesn't feel like it lacks flavor or texture and it's got a quite nice little kind of fruity thing going on okay it's almost creamy a nice flavor so I'm happy with that I'm not gonna commit yet until I taste the second because I think the second's gonna clarify my thoughts on the first yes absolutely so you just thought that was quality if you had to guess there would you say it was a Percy or I mean right now I would say that would be good enough for a Percy but I think the back of my head there's something I'm looking for that I don't know if that delivered yet okay now maybe it'll be clear when you have our second snack and again please put it in your mouth in the same way hold your palm out and I'll placing it there any smell there no no smell that I could discern of note okay now he's slot it the second item in he's gonna have to come to a decision so I'm gonna go ahead and say he's definitely having thoughts ladies and gentlemen he's a second seriously which is appreciated for me there was a lot less flavor there a lot less flavor and did you get the quality what was the quality of it like texture yeah fine it felt a little slight I can't explain it a flavor similarly you felt with slider yeah but not it was not pleasant I was definitely not like my gut says the first was Percy pig and the second was Leo the lamb okay just going on lying no I'm telling the truth hey second gag that play on words you like that can you assure me there was no time going on there was not because what I did was I put the smooth side down and as soon as I could I bit into it masticating the form they're for making unrecognized there were some differences in terms of texture well the only way could describe it is like it just felt like the first thing was a little thicker a little chewier a little bit more flavor and the second was a little thinner a little less flavor easier to chew so I'm only gonna go ahead and say that I think the first one was Percy pig because it just feels more produced it feels nicer so I'm gonna go with Percy pig one was the first one and the knockoff was Leo the line and just right now I'm gonna say as well both are completely valid if you gave your kid either of those I think they'd be fine with them she didn't hate the one that you think it's not all it just felt slightly less quality have you eaten one yourself oh I thought I could eat it wet God slapping and slipping around I have to say Paul I'm totally in agreement with you oh yeah you're taking on all those points and reveal to you now Paul oh yeah the first half of this reverse brand off brand off yeah you are correct see yeah number one was Percy number two was Leo the lion I can take the difference between Percy and Leo in my mouth I really can Percy's a little thicker little juicier nicer to suck on Leo little smaller side that important there's a lot still there to a very isn't it Leo yeah softer Leo which something like like especially if you got like we could teeth or something yeah the Leo ones are probably easier to chew but less substantial yeah isn't it slight but ultimately valid I don't think there's anything wrong with giving that to a kid it doesn't taste horrible it doesn't taste cheap it's a perfectly valid knockoff I agree in fact I kind of prefer it because it's easier to get down now are you ready for your second challenge I got one second yeah good it was just like my eyes were feeling slightly sophisticated I've tied this on a bit too tight it's fine do you want to have a moment when we retire the thing it's funny if the soda I can't open my eyelid below the behind this thing now we don't want to distract you from the important task of getting a perfect score I'm ready to go I will open one of these now remember these are squashes what's your thoughts on squashy's I've they're all right you got that into the money no I like my gummy to be more like Haribo Golden Bears you know I like those juicy fruit variety non-nommie-nommie-chu-chus fruit gum I like a I like a color bottle sort of sports mix cola bottles they're good I think I find when it comes to color bottles if I get bored of them but if they're in amongst like a variety that's why you like Bombay mix you can pick up and have Bombay mix we should do we should taste there's all sorts of crazy Bombay mix variety we must have done Bombay mix on the podcast though well we could go most of oh no we've got those fact sheets now that was sent to keep looking so we can just go through that I guess again there's you know what as well just one final note on the Percy pig versus the other lion yeah it's actually a much nicer snuff on the lion oh if you ask me just just just for the sake of agreement here that's the lion well there's snuff on that kind of sweet almost bubble gummy almost it's got kind of a sweet shot vibe yeah vanillay yeah now smell these these are the perfect real deal Percy it's much sour for me it's all those vinegary you know what I mean isn't that strange that is really straight doesn't translate once you put it in your gob does it ain't that the truth funny weird nifty maybe because the person picks you's real fruit juice or something like that maybe because that's almost like an apple juice concentrate smell oh yeah that's what it is you're right it's a vinegar yeah you're right it's a cidery vinegary thing okay now Paul I'm very pleased with how you're doing this all right let's go let's over with there is a niff difference with the two next ones again just remind people one is the legit swizzles transic squashies and one is the dominion Aldi is it all the knock off known for being in old oldie but could be sold in other I guess I mean I don't know twinies stupid name and what they meant to be twins of squash you just know it was all they had like a four hour fucking meeting in a ballroom now you know what he's referring to is the domino the twin the two flavors yeah that's what I'm saying they look like a four hour meeting where a bunch of fucking boring cuts that come up with the name for their wacky snack Perry's a doubly two two two differences yeah pack of a pack of a poo poo poo either or what we call either or see either or see much like a twin 20 thing twin twin twin I was I want to go the pub it's fucking cold 20 let's go lazy naming but they do it serves a function right it serves a function are you ready to taste either a squashy or a 20 now these have the same look basically they have the same look and so it's gonna be harder for me to cheat in the mouth now I had this out ready to receive having you the first in it goes what are your thoughts they're constantly I'm thinking this is the knock off why now I'm gonna take that back the first few bites there was no flavor there was very little texture it kind of just fell apart my mouth the back end was very recognizably refresher flavored there was a fight between the raspberry and the milk the milk flavor again Paul I don't want to correct you but these aren't refreshes these are drumsticks sorry but you know you know the two the drumstick flavor came through okay a lot more you recognize it as a drumstick yeah these are your first four you have to make a decision now okay I'm just saying my initial thoughts were no no no and then at the end it was like yes okay yeah okay next now here is your second item there you go I feel vulnerable right next one there it is here we go he's made a little contented noise as soon as it went in which we didn't have with the last item he's he's in contemplative chewing mode and he's a sigh what what are your thoughts or what are you thoughts there this is confusing harder than the first round you know why because the front end was very very drumsticky and the back end was like shit okay so those are the second one salt rubbery in a way that the first ones didn't so I'm gonna go ahead and say I'm gonna regret this no I'm gonna try again no do you want to have another guy no I think I'll add on myself I don't think I'm gonna get any taste number one again no you sure I think number one is the drumstick number two is the knock off I think there was just way too much pronounced familiar flavor of the first one to make it recognizably a drumstick it really felt like a drumstick the first word the second one was a perfectly valid tasty sweet but it kind of disappears towards the end where the first snack kind of almost reaches a more flavorful crescendo towards the end of that shoe so you like the journey that it takes on better yeah it was like listening to an old chucky dog story by your grandpa part you know I'm just I'm following along everybody by tasting these myself so I'm gonna stick with that the first one was the official swizzles drumstick and the second was the not too bad twinies I'm not gonna it could chong for yeah in the first part of this challenge yeah you're the first such challenge yeah you correctly distinguished and identified personally I'm from the other line yeah now you try to talent this by doing this yeah it's the power I feel when I do this so enjoy it enjoy it enjoy it so enjoy it I certainly bring this out did you have a favorite of the person people the lion you said the line was perfectly good but you still prefer the person I think I think I think I think I'll still prefer the person but also say those are the ball of lines on the party table I'd be more than happy thanks very much now the second test was telling the twinies the knockoff twinies yeah from the legit swizzles drumstick squashes yeah the first one you had you have said was the legit yeah and then the second with the knockoff I'm afraid you're wrong really the first one was the twinies and the second was the squash you see I'm really happy with that outcome because I honestly feel the first one was just better the texture is quite quite different texture much softer it's softer but it doesn't have that shoe the elasticity of the squashy's which I feel is what gives them their deadly mouth crack vibe it's much more rubbery I think the second one yes whereas the first one's a little bit more kind of just chewy in a chewy way yes in a more sort of generic way but may I think they take more like drumsticks and drumsticks though genuinely back end flavor was what threw me off initially it was the quality of the bite that made me think that's a knockoff but yes back end flavor was just that that's a drumstick to me whereas there's none of that amplitude in the second one do you agree I can see what you're getting at the squashy's actually have a more tart no like the raspberry has a sort of acidic tartness which isn't there yeah which again must be might be something that they added just for this product maybe they're in the original drumstick I take this off absolutely well done oh it's so bright segment because we've gone in depth man deep dive right that's a segment over with I have already bored myself of this well done well done though I enjoyed that I enjoyed that process oh hang on I've got let him in mate this is 32 minutes and I didn't know even you were recording today yeah that's we don't owe you money this week because effectively it's a new segment I don't know what's on it I've come all the way down from the roundabout from the roundabout rough rough it's a brand off off brands you know I can't look I've learned a few quid all right how much do you need 600 pounds wrong I can do you 300 now but I think it's feeling it out of the cash machine well is this going forward it's in the contract that you know there's no contact remember you have tried to Jimmy says there's a contract Jimmy rough Jimmy said there was a contract not bad it's more like Bracken we're building we're building there's shelves and stuff in the trees held the planning coming along for the charity show I did want to bring that out I'm sorry I'm sorry about that I know you had to postpone it I had to postpone it but just can I have an assurance from you to yeah that you still for presenting oh yeah yeah yeah we've got some nice things lined up as well we've been the show of a lifetime lads it's going to be rough rough so good for your pro for your pro for your money for charity it'd be brilliant for the profiles of the whole podcast and we decided we're gonna give out little kind of things to wear like you know we'll do red cock day so everyone could buy red knob before it was oh yeah red knob there's red knob so rough red we're funny you're such funny little boys aren't you yeah so everyone buy out big red knob they can wear on their face rough that sounds great just so I have your assurance rough that you are both still there are still involved okay yeah tell Jimmy we're gonna we've booked the studio space to film this rough rough telephone end of bed I'll tell Jimmy when we bed down yeah this weather you do top and tailors it like more you spoon well you know keep guard so usually we have a little you have little kind of we have shot before the night shift starts so to speak rough so why do you have to sleep you're the one stays away you've got to look out because there could be something you know like a runner a truck they could have rough like turkeys on the back then we have to go out and mad Max it as I like to say I do a basically a robbery and then the piece of the roundabout as well as a little bit about that the piece of the roundabout I don't tell me about the piece of the roundabout I shit in rough rough I don't know mate I heard legends about the piece of the roundabout it looks it looks nice on the roundabout listen I have to take a little naked man but with like I have to I have to I have to get you in dog legs almost I have to get into also with dogs like yes that's how we designed it rough rough I have to let you into a little well secret here are you the beast of the roundabout rough anyway it's great I've got your shorts with them the red knob they boys the piece like how to scooby do thing where you pretend to be the beast that scares people away from the roundabout the find out to scare them away they'll find our bedding right it's not a ten really it's much more complicated than that no it's complicated it's an old 1980s he man action played ten but he fucking bought a weird bedding in rough rough look need must look can you fuck off now I'll give you the 600 quid late but recording right now right I like but nate it's the last experiment with rough you're getting off us right you're getting off us right I'm I segmented my name on it no it had your segment what's a new segment called off brand brand off you said it rough rough two different words it's not brand off soft brand brand off anymore it's brand off brand I brand off I'm also the beast of the roundabout rough by this is now a 37 minute segment with editing it's probably gonna be a few minutes shorter and I've already dragged this out as far as we can go so why don't you go and I'll end this segment and that's that segment ended he's wearing the t-shirt so why not John the board the cheap eats express cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap it's coming round the men that you beat you'll get you in the end that you beat it's coming out the head to the cheap it's for you being ahead we eat lots of cheap stuff and talk about it that's it that's the concept of this segment oh right so we have to be special bit special bit something a bit special let's start with the uh can I ask a question you can where did the lays pizza flavored crisps come from I don't know up around your way do you remember when I was on the way to the office Christmas party oh yeah before you got the button to the woods yes before then I started in your area in the end after that fucking party so you all fucking got home safe and sound yeah you know who was driving the uber sexy Santa your uber was driven by sexy yeah I'm not gonna go down in detail well but yes first year of fucking mini milk moves that night cool back to the arse stuff he fucking loves it okay it doesn't matter of scatter oh I do the crisps first and these I think are definitely important because they're lays not walkers right yeah if they're manufactured to be sold here they'd be walkers wouldn't they and also walkers did do recently didn't they the kind of high street restaurant flate favorite KFC KFC which we tasted they were very underwhelming no not KFC but they did like every single crisp packet was flavored like a restaurant so there was Peter Express margarita pizza then there was like a Thai or was it what such a con restaurant Nando's Nando's was an Andos thing wasn't it yeah so I want to be the same these these are the same range of their recent KFC ones because this is that's flavor inspired by the iconic restaurants pizza horta yes which is the reason I know Paul is the shop where I bought these the KFC ones were next to them with the same kind of packaging do you see but I think the British market just got KFC was that lays though I thought that was another couple not like that was lays that was walkers yeah definitely max yeah it's a sub-brand of walkers isn't it that's right these obviously weren't it for this market is territory but are in the same same sort of thing it's a restaurant Thai and crisp basically Paul so we're gonna stop with this and we've had a lot of pizza flavored crisps recently and the show pizza restaurant flavored crisps specifically restaurant flavored but that was that with bits and pieces went there yeah but they were fucking delicious they were like arty-o-leys something like that pizza bits or something that was absolutely fucking mouth ejaculate that was very nice they were very nice and they did manage to conjure up that feeling of being an Italian restaurant having pizza the herbiness of it all the farmers and dust yeah you know I mean the rennet tell me rennet so because I'm gonna open the back and give it a whole little half now these again just if we haven't been cleared these are pizza hot inspired pizza flake margarita specifically so what are you thinking gonna be the big one I think it's gonna be basil and cheese oregano it's gonna be overwhelmed I'm not holding out a lot of hope you know why why KFC ones were fucking bullshit like if you had if they hadn't have KFC on the front I would never have been able to say yeah that it was oh yeah I recognize BKFC flavor not at all they just tasted like another roast chicken flavored crisp and I think these are just gonna be generic very similar to the right here we go the hoof I might be wrong here comes the hoofman what's the half man saying disappointing really it's got a very familiar potato crisp sense that hit you first that kind of red-e-sulted crisp sense so there's this smell of the actual potato more than any flavor and then yeah the back of the potato the pizza is there but it's fighting through that potato half take some of those crisps at the platform and I'm gonna see if I can reach it some half-mists yeah give it a little try and reactivate the half-mist on this and I'm gonna have a bite oh yeah well getting cheese and get the oregano and I got mostly potato out of that I'm getting a very standard sort of a bite let's try it is it any visible they are sort of a bit reddened something with a sort of oh I mean they do taste of margarita pizza but they're heavy on the ketchup the tomato sauce actually what's gonna say that's what hits the tongue first isn't it now I happen to really like then the cheese comes in after it's they're quite good they're quite good better than the smell would suggest do you remember those green ones we tasted which would these are better I think yeah he's got more of a sort of more amplitude more rounded pizza attack on the tongue it's funny I will say they are very reminiscent of the pizza margarita you would get from pizza hook it's got that doughiness to it as well it's got it's basically big up from flavor of the ketchup the tomato sauce yeah and kind of warm for the cheese comes through and when you start chewing into the crisp itself that's when you get the doughiness almost Chris they're fine Chris much better than the KFC ones oh yeah yeah KFC is I like that tomatoiness because it reminds me of one of my favorite walkers are high-smarter flavor ketchup Chris I love those and that's like even that's like one of those but even improved with a nice cheesy heat coming through on the second note like you said no I'm gonna rate that out of five and get that 3.75 you know what I had a number in my mind Paul yeah I had a number in my mind in your pines in my mind yeah and you know what that number was I mean just for the whole kids my top 3.75 it certainly was well then I reckon we can both settle on 3.75 there's a lot in this a big bag so they're not the cheapest because they're better than the ones that we tasted which were just walkers own brand sort of margarita which had a horrible pina's if I remember and also it hasn't got that basil or argano thing almost artificial or agano going on there is some herbiness but it's not a lot no I like it it's big on the tomato big on the cheese low on the herb I that's the way to go with it but I also don't believe I could cane that bag because it's such a rich flavor I kind of feel I might be sick a few handfuls in but a nibbler it's definitely a nibbler you come back to it what a surprisingly good first snack and now it's time for something a little bit different something to wash it down with well would you like a pot of my arse mini milk moves really I really wouldn't now it's time to wash it down with pork this is a soty pop now we are so sometimes I put a little mini milk up I drink a load of cream soda and then I make my own floats but it wouldn't come out then it would come out your wee wee because that's what happens yeah I just winking at me that's not how it works it does not how it works how I work would be better if you put the soda up the same way the mini milks went oh you mean I believe shake up a tin and then fired up my chute that's what I wanted you to do with the red bull red bull in a mare I'm up for do you know that soldier who died when someone bought a wine up his arse no yeah it's dangerous yeah cuz it's it's an you should never drink alcohol for your arse you really shouldn't for the very simple reason that you're a fucking idiot for even thinking of contemplating that full stop yeah no never thinks oh I'll get more full of red-off sausage up the ball but it does absorb really quickly and you know frances don't know you need a few weeks to break down a sausage in your cavity that's why I end up working with mini milks anyway the drink we're gonna do next is something to wash your mouth out now we like a challenge on this podcast port we have a little a little bit of a tradition of mystery drinks mystery drinks now we what's the update on the recent mystery drinks that we've guessed that from what I understand they are still serving that fan to drink in the UK and some of Europe so as of as of February I think this year they stopped showing they stopped producing that line and then the website will tell everyone what the flavor was so if we can we'll try and get a bottle of that before it's all over so we can refresh ourselves on a tent again once we know when the answer's out but we did guess it when we were walking about in Barnet is that right now no it was our Ganon's golden quest to yeah that's when we tried that fan to drink we said it was elderflower or something like a cucumber or something yeah well we can go back we can check that and we also can have another go near at the time yeah but it seems all the big drinks manufacturers are jumping on this bandwagon and it's just a symptom of having a mystery flavor it's a symptom of the control in the day this day and age that these big producers have over the flavor profiles of their products get this is unheard of when I was a child no drinking soda de pop you just get you know it's just a free flavors there was lemonade cola and cherry that was it no it was all that the all you lemon lime sprite type stuff didn't you that counts to different one that's lemonade it is essentially alright okay sprite stroke 7 up is what we call lemonade yeah but cola but cola but cola but another thing you don't mean like we're trying to expand you're trying to expand it all right it's our soul in the old world eventually I want my fucking arse like a hoover nozzle it only does baby oh it looks like a greasy little kissy hoover nozzle do the kissy sound oh I love this show I bought my old look like new new from fucking telly tuppies whatever that hoover was called there was a hoover character on telly tuppy yeah called new new or something wasn't it no I never used to clean up the telly tuppies mess when he's a splash they're a little bit before my time for now this is I was a stoner at university telly tuppies was what I watched aily I liked the clangers and obviously I'm not that old but I like to do repeat and also they used to do this is my ultimate stoner ultimate stoner sort of do nothing TV for I go for the afternoon student for the afternoon I guess what that was bagpuss minder oh minder minder they used to show like two in the afternoon on I do whatever yeah fucking great absolute perfect stone for me it was a bagpuss RIP Dennis awesome in this year as well so no last year 2023 yeah yeah the year that has just ended you know when they released the Sweeney movies they were like rated 18 or whatever the 18 rating was hardcore they made two Sweeney movies and they're probably they were both like x rated movies violent and sex and all sort I never seen this shit it's grown up material it's the flying squad leave it I like all that stuff I love he's got a shoe at mind I love because you get to see bits of London that have changed over the years always that sort of psychod geographical background those kind of programs from that age have a more resonance with me I own my own that do you see what I mean it's like that hortology thing anyway we're doing a mystery drink what is it called it's called Mountain Joe is the brand yes they've got a lot of they had that chilly one they're very much on the sort of novelty flavor soda bandwagon aren't they and surprising that hot hot I like it was very tasted weirdly well like a mini well those chilly minis we I like I like a certain kind of chilli sweet yeah they don't go sweetness and chilli go together they can do they can also be really fucking disgusting if you get the quality wrong yeah interesting so this is mystery flavor it says very clearly at the top it's an orange can it's voodoo as in voodoo I think you actually explain that because I was going to worry if it's going to be I ever so slightly anti-semitic no you you you do you yes it how's the view is it the oh yeah I just want to see how they don't look if the answers already been found and there is a sort of rafelike figure oh it's a Halloween special edition this book yeah has it been revealed on October 31st I'm not gonna read it just so you know October 1st 2022 voodoo grim endorsed by the official Mountain Dew Twitter account on veiled the flavor to be and I'm gonna leave it you've seen I've seen it now okay I had to to prove that there wasn't answer unfortunately okay so I'm doing a little bit of a blind thing here yeah you're in charge of the good that we actually know now so we can see immediately yeah I fucking dilly fucking dallying okay I'm gonna pour some out for you for I just want to get a fresh half on the yeah on the snuff's nose oh I've a lot of ah it reminds me of an orange pears oh interesting really reminds me of an orange pears so was this only released in America somehow it's over here now well it's like you know the way they import cheats I was and stuff I think some shops just only available in America Halloween 2020 I did it in more than one shopping London and it's a white drink yeah well it's a yellow look like it's got a decent carbonation Paul yeah I'm gonna hand you that's a glass of it a little sniff oh yeah okay just you want to mean about it all right let's give this a go a nice fizzy how is it real ginger beer almost thing orange all right I've got very overpowering orange but that's what Mountain Jews and orange labor soda original have a drink and they're gonna read something out to you before you have a guess all right there's not a lot going on there really getting orange yeah orange aid right description voodoo was a mystery flavor of Mountain Jew and had a white look with a similar architecture to its Halloween flavors speculation since this flavor was a mystery flavor many people have tried to draw comparisons to some slight kind of candy or other types of candy the clues when it was first released some founds found a fascinating discovery when you zoom into the pumpkin in the cemetery what do you see on the can of zoom in I'm just gonna take the light up yeah go for it the mystery deepens now looking for the pumpkin oh there's a pumpkin yeah oh I'm gonna have to what can you see there's something in the pumpkins mouth yeah there should be a character near that pumpkin doing something can you see it I don't know if I'm looking at the right pumpkin so it says a sour patch kid can be seen burning as a candle in the pumpkin oh it's our patch flavored I got let me go carry on one clue is from the Voodoo grim Twitter account which posted a photograph of themselves on a table holding a sign signifying that they were a big fan of Fran Casey dovuro once you unscramble the text it revealed itself to be and then the answer to the other Halloween the Twitter account all right go on to another go I like this is they get put extra value in fan type of a money this shit do they close and what have you this is like a play a witch project there's a mountain do fandom site reading this for trivia this is the flavor this flavor is the sixth Halloween flavor drink to be released after pitch black pitch black to Voodoo in 2019 Voodoo in 2020 Voodoo in 2021 Voodoo in 2022 and the seventh Voodoo in 2023 has come out yeah no but they'll have one there's a mystery flavors where they these Voodoo ones yeah well there's a Twitter account named Voodoo grim and George by Mountain Dew and have been an active since 2021 but has been updated for 2022 on the packaging as a reference to the past three Voodoo flavors in the form of tombstones mark 2019 2021 like the Christmas flavors this flavor also has similar architecture with Halloween flavors and inspired by the Halloween spirit but what flavor do you think it is that gingerbread one we drank was quite nice I'm not a huge mountain do you know I mean this is what I'm doing they're fun flavors this was one of the least favorites this flavor yeah I have the anagram the letters oh yeah okay so Fran can Kc Ks sorry C a combat Y yeah and then Dalv zoom opposed the old two your r are and you've got thirty seconds starting from now did really what may be worse and it's throw a word today if you are now when you are no the only aremaker's gonna throw you off yeah In fact, I'm gonna say you're gonna be quite upset with the flavour when it reveals to you in the next few seconds because on October 31st the official account on Twitter Unveiled that the 2022 flavour is Sour candy fuck. Oh Can be flavour whatever that means to you.

I've lost I've lost a hundred percent of respect for them now But when you said orange pears, I was on it you were pretty much on it because I think that's what they're going for That's why I think they have the sour patch character on it to kind of go Oh look wait to be fair It's more than fucking fun to do fans are just when it's in a blue bottle now It's a blue fucking drink they've at least gone a little bit of a game Let's put a little puzzle in so you can notice on the camera I like all of that and I like the artwork and I like the whole sort of yeah, you know lovely I agree, but the actual drink itself. Yeah, it's fine It's not the best or a Mount Jew variant I've had put it that way no, but it's not unpleasant In fact, this might be the most kind of satisfyingly generic flavour It's just like an orange soda really doesn't it but it has that sort of artificiality that candiness which is nice Eli the trains pulling away.
