10 Different Animal Nugget Taste Test (And Our New Crew Member!)

It’s mind blowing how Josh can taste something brand new, mentally break it down to its DNA, and recreate it perfectly on the first try…. But can’t identify meats to save his life 🤣

[@Sam-uu2nx]

Here we are 4 months later with an episode that proves he cannot do that lol

[@Proudtman]

Sadly facts

[@tbrochez2318]

It is genuinely impressive that Josh got nearly all the meats incorrect.

[@iwinrar5207]

Sight is a part of what's needed for taste along with a huge part being smell and since they are all battered things are going to taste way different.

[@EvanMcVeigh]

Especially since he can lick a lot of chip powders and the like and recreate they flavor. It's like his tung was off today

[@nihlify]

@@EvanMcVeigh Sight and texture is a lot of your skill to determine things. I've seen countless Top Chef episodes where proffessional chefs get maybe 50 % right on blind taste tests with fairly normal ingredients, especially when you homonogize the food like in nuggets, powders or whatever.

Speaking as a native new orleanian, gator either tastes or has the consistency of pork or chicken depending on where it's coming from, tail is porkier in flavor and consistency and legs are chickenier

[@danm8004]

It makes sense for it to taste like chicken since they're both reptiles.

Recently did a "will it nugget" thing with my friend. We made nuggets from many things but the shining nugget was tuna salad. We took tuna salad, froze it into pucks and nuggified them and oh my god they were insanely delicious. We've made them a few time since then.

[@tinntinnamp]

That sounds really good, I'm not surprised! Tuna has a good texture (to me) and is good in fried patty form so tuna salad seems like it would be good too!

[@hugeinjapan4635]

I'm both surprised and intrigued. Surprised because I wouldn't have expected it to remain nuggetified...even with it being frozen. And intrigued because I make some bomb-ass tuna salad, and I think I need to fry it.

[@auntlynnie]

Kind of like tuna croquettes?

[@spencergallucci5309]

Hear me out. Make this into a GMM episode and see if Rhett and Link can do it with their prior knowledge of both eating with blindfolds and eating weird stuff

[@ivorellarackley4401]

I'm slightly bootybothered that Josh of all people didn't go back through the nuggets and say "which one is this?" And retry them knowing what it is. If he did, y'all should've recorded it!

[@tinntinnamp]

Yes that was what I was hoping for!! I'm assuming they may have done it after but I wish they showed us! It's way different knowing what it is... like how they were kind of put off by the chicken ones which would be considered normal

[@Myserieden]

100 percent serious, if you guys produced a mythical dog food, I’d buy it. I don’t know how well it would do, but you have kids watching and they’d convince their parents to buy it. If you made a quality product you’d be set. Edit: I think proper seasoning for each one would have changed the results.

I've had Gator before so I definitely get where they'd confuse it for Chicken, but I wasn't expecting Ostrich to utterly dominate.
