$247 Taco Bell Cheesy Gordita Crunch Taste Test | FANCY FAST FOOD

[@dalenna_]

Vi and Josh are the adult cousins that go on a walk during Thanksgiving and come back with red eyes and then make some crazy stuff in the kitchen.

[@madelinegarber7860]

And somehow what they make is the best thing on the table.

[@vaidehipatel2963]

3 months in the future, somehow they made an exact comment like this in their taco competition video-

[@KahlevN]

@@vaidehipatel2963 They did! I was curious, it's at 9:40 on the competition video, Vi starts it, then Josh riffs off it. We know now that Vi reads at least some of the comments!

[@thenovicenovelist]

​@@KahlevNI was wondering why the OP's comment seemed so familiar. Thank you.

[@TigerWolfDemon]

I love how Josh has a very sibling relationship with all his coworkers and despite the fact he is their boss, they are very much his babysitters

[@alykat09]

This show is like watching the cooking channel except by half way through each episode I’ve already entirely forgotten what we’re cooking and frankly forgotten that cooking is even the end goal and I couldn’t care less. Love it.

[@mpbx3003]

I truly love Josh saying "They're like an army, man" about Taco Bell fans, like he isn't a four-star general in said army.

[@JediSentinal]

😂

[@zachsolka1040]

Right? Didn't he once talk about camping out at a taco bell for new promo items?

[@GrahamCrannell]

@@zachsolka1040 - he's definitely mentioned that before. I think it was for the Doritos locos tacos maybe?

[@mpbx3003]

@@GrahamCrannell Breakfast biscuit taco, I think? Maybe multiple items?

[@GrahamCrannell]

@@mpbx3003 - that sounds familiar too. and tbh, i would be zero-percent surprised to find out that he'd camped out multiple times hahaha

[@ReinhardtBII]

We need to see Mythical Chef Josh on Hot Ones, and then cross it over and have Sean Evans on Last Meals

[@kerryanne28]

❤❤❤

[@Bearociraptor]

I'd love that.

[@austinrenner9568]

Do you comment this on everything they upload?

[@ReinhardtBII]

@@austinrenner9568 I will until it happens

[@kylealexander7024]

I sure hope ur spamming this comment on hot ones videos as well. Otherwise wats the point?

[@caseycat0221]

I love how on GMM you can hear Stevie losing it in the back sometimes and on here you can hear Nicole 😂

[@Jeremy-hx7zj]

And then you have Shayne from Smosh

[@LookinLikeSoup]

I love mythical kitchen, as an avid home cook I consume a fair amount of food/cooking content. Mythical kitchen has hit this magical middle ground in this genre. It encapsulates the wild wacky vibes that make it entertaining outside of the food, but the key for me is; where every other channel that does stuff like this its all "8Lbs of bacon and american cheese heart attack burger!!!!" Whereas mythical kitchens crew develops some crazy yet inspiring international dishes, im always learning of new flavours and cuisines in combinations ive never seen. The key of a cooking show is it really inspires you to cook and create, Mythical kitchen does that for me in a way no one has since Jacques Pépin.

[@Gary_a_normal_human_being]

I feel the same way it’s informative and a Trainwreck

[@richardpatterson432]

I love the fact that the longer V is part of the mythical kitchen team, the weirder she gets. I love her lol

[@secretforreddit]

I feel like Josh's energy really gets absorbed by each of the new crew members; even Lily is starting to show signs of Josh-esque insanity now and then!

[@bunnyford]

I think they just feel comfortable enough to be themselves.

[@sirskorge]

The top mustache, the sideburns. LET ME CUT IT PLEEEEEASE

[@user-sx1fg7lc3c]

She seems really friggin cool

[@giraffesinc.2193]

V is SO MUCH fun, she is really my fave beside Josh.

[@bkaden1]

The fact that Josh can obviously care for his physique while simultaneously and consistently acting with complete disregard for his body never ceases to amaze me.

[@dwmlue9299]

Josh: "LET ME HAVE OPEN FLAME COOKING. I'LL BE RESPONSIBLE!" Also Josh: "The stove is a little bit on fire now."

[@D3moknight]

Pro tip from a guy that has been making mayo in my home kitchen for several years: Start with your egg, then add about a Tbs of acid per egg, about the same amount of mustard of your choice, and a pinch of salt per egg as well. Do this in a narrow container that your immersion blender will fit in. You don't have to fuss with adding your oil super slowly. Add enough oil to submerge the blender, and then continue adding oil while running the immersion blender on high until the mayo is thick enough for your taste. The more oil you add, the thicker it gets.

[@lydzie09]

Came here for this. They forgot the acid that’s why it was so liquidy

[@melbell0865]

It’s true, mostly because I saw it happen on multiple episodes of Binging with Babish.

[@jacquesbrat2834]

Yes! I am confused why they were so worked up about making mayonnaise. I made it at home when I was clean eating. I used the method you described. It was simple and delicious.

[@martyjehovah]

@@jacquesbrat2834 They have failed at making it multiple times, and the fact that it is extremely simple is why it's a funny thing to reference and even funnier to get pumped about succeeding.

[@CookinWithBiscuits]

Josh saying that he can't tell you what verbs go down in a manicure was like unlocking a secret phrase to better communicate with my wife about not knowing what's happening when she gets a manicure.

[@whiteghost45]

☝️🤣

[@thaursir]

I'm so sad that Vi made that beautiful multicolor taco shell and it got completely wrapped up in the naan so you couldn't see it as you ate. It was art.

[@bbcpfghs]

17:00 Josh’s brain was so enamored with the fire that it completely turned off and almost created a Molotov cocktail 💀😂

[@rachelcooper3508]

yeah that was not funny

[@sereneholsclaw]

@@rachelcooper3508 not at all like what

[@jaimeknoble3315]

"Star Anus" 🤣🤣🤣 I love Josh and V's chemistry with that church hug and I'm glad that neither of them caught on fire when Josh lit the alcohol a little too soon.

[@weem7]

Cheesy Gordita crunch is arguably the best item at taco bell. Thank you josh for bringing your mayhem and mild existential crisis to this awesome food!

[@courtlin]

I get the Doritos cheesy Gordita crunch and it’s so good. Definitely up there as one of my favorites.

[@whiskeygrandpa1426]

can only be elevated with the dorito shell!

[@nickfaver]

“Do you guys have therapy here?” 😂

[@lisatiberi7448]

Tie dye taco shells is the best thing I've seen in a really long time! Vi, you did that!

[@fat_ninja_status]

Chalupa shells are made from Gordita shells. There is a fry rack that holds 4/5 at a time in a u shape. Least how it was when I worked there 20 years ago.

[@scaredsquee]

I live for Nicole laughing heartily off screen, love her!

[@bigjosh466]

Vee is hilarious!! 😂😂😂! This is a segment where she shines! I really enjoyed this episode!

[@Eturian]

Figuratively AND literally. She's so shiny I can see Josh's face in her face. 😆

[@mojodevice28]

She’s not though

[@Deathcoreqt]

🤣 when my boyfriend adds cheese or anything like that to my food he always asks if I want too much or not enough. Josh definitely reminds me of that when saucing V's gordita

[@ellenmcdonald4789]

V is an AMAZING addition to MK. Josh, V and Trevor are hysterical!!!

[@lokidecat]

I always expect Moochelle to stop by when they're trying the Fancy version.. never happens. :(

[@AGas1521]

V and Josh together are just pure chaos and I'm totally here for it.

[@kerlyenai]

Love Vi! Wait... I love everyone on this show! Thanks for the upload!

[@tiredandangry2480]

Every time Vi is on, I know it's gonna be a good one. Girl cracks me up.

[@Beachshorts101]

V's the person I love watching she's got the energy I like, and also her jokes are my favorite. Cuz I also tell jokes exactly like her.. she looks like a fun friend

[@Localjoost]

Josh starting out talking about being responsible with live fire cooking... * Proceeds to light his coworker on fire while flambeeing :D

[@ArtByFinch]

Is 2023 the year we get to see the episode of GMM we have all been waiting for? Where MCJ is tasked with hiding or not hiding bologna in every course of a 10 course meal, served to Rhett & Link who have to guess whether or not josh has hidden his bologna in it or not. Yes this means hiding bologna in a dessert course too.

[@RirtyDascal]

2:08 EVERYTHING Josh says here is 100 percent correct. It’s the only item I ever order now and of course I always get the Doritos shell.

[@k7l3rworkman97]

Yo, someone should make Animated versions of these episodes 😂❤ GMM was hilarious Animated, so I have high hopes that a mythical beats will come up with something lol

[@jarigot1885]

I never thought I would see you guys cook food with Feni. That stuff is potent. I also have a small jar of Roasted Naga chilli right next to me and I was tempted to add some to my food lol.

[@AllanDawnsun]

Feni was super pleasant imo

[@lenahb]

Manic goblin line cook is the best description for Pete Davidson I've ever heard 😂

[@k7l3rworkman97]

“Do you guys have Therapy here??” “Dang, you used my Government name? That’s Crazy.” “We have the Hot Booty Sauce” Omg lol Vee is wife material ❤❤❤ ✌🏻😆

[@scottieboy91]

Everyone V is on a video I get happy. She and Josh chemistry is great and I love her personality. That smile is infectious.

[@jaronstrem]

Josh, even though your mayo worked (whish is epic), salt can ruin the emulsion from happening. You should always add salt (and other flavors) after the emulsion comes together.

[@buddhasgurl1986]

the sass coming off this video is everything! hahaha

[@ParaexParanoid]

Josh I have a very important question. A hotdog may be a sandwich but, Is a CornDog a Beef Wellington?

[@brynncastle8637]

Love watching their interactions lol Josh is a fav to watch no matter what. Extra love for the Sundays are for the Birds 🦅 shirt

[@bakedslow2530]

Nothing starts my morning better than fancy fast food, especially when it's Josh and Vee ❣️

[@carella211]

Josh and Vi have some great chemistry on camera.

[@frixxle]

My favorite duo.

[@laylayraskin]

Sibling vibes.

[@jennastewart7473]

V is such a great addition to the mythical kitchen team! She just adds so much personality to the videos. Love her!

[@maeganmcdaniel6269]

Y’all are the best. And the CGC is the best item from Taco Bell! Love this episode! Also, side note, I learned from a food blogger how to make really good mayo super easily. Put the egg, salt, light EVOO, and a tiny bit of lemon juice in a jar and blend with an immersion blender. Hold it over the yolk for like 30 seconds then blend it all together. Perfect texture every time!

[@joshwilliams8863]

2 minutes in and it looks like V is the chaotic one! Josh reminds me of my old youth pastor.

[@laurensteenkamp7693]

I'm not sure if it's the same in the U.S (or even most of Europe) but in the UK sheep meat for human consumption is broken down into 3 age defined categories; Anything under a year old; Lamb Anything between 1 and 3 years old; Hoggett Anything over 3 years old; Mutton

[@OneOfDisease]

This is one of my favorite taco bell menu items! Love it!

[@0702372]

Here in Rhetts favourite non-country Finland we actually have meat saunas! It is a traditional way of cooking meats! Maybe you should do a finland episode just to annoy Rhett 🤔

[@newquinn22]

Immersion blenders are great for making mayo. You dont have to worry about slowly streaming in the oil, you can just put all the ingredients in a tall measuring cup and youll have mayo in a few seconds

[@micaelasparrow650]

This is one of the first fancy fast foods that I actually really wish I could try. They look amazing.

[@pritt871]

Vi is the best Mythical Crew Member. Full stop. ❤

[@BBDemant]

18:44 So a deciliter is actually a pretty common unit for cooking (at least in some northern european countries) and corresponds to about 0.4 cups. Cubic deciliters doesn't really make sense though, but excluding that, 12 deciliters (~5 cops) per 15 seconds would be a lot of oil!

[@squirrellydan4987]

A food processor is better suited for making mayonnaise. The plunger has a small hole just for drizzling oil for emulsions and you don't have to worry about heat build up.

[@GalactoseGalaxy]

I think Josh and Vi are in my top 3 Mythical Kitchen duos (Josh and Nicole are ofc top 3 too)

[@terrigaul1899]

That little move that Josh did before dropping the tortilla in the pan, reminded me of Stuart from Mad Tv . Look what I can do 🤣🤣

[@leecoffill8425]

Remember when Vi started and she was a little bit nervous on camera? She's like... the best mythical chef now XD

[@FflawedMetalhead]

I'm in a similar boat with Josh - I portray a lot of what I wish I had genuinely. I'm an overgrown child that WILL cry if a puppy is too cute.

[@enigmaoftheechidna6279]

Vi's smile is so contagious, I love their energy

[@jamessardina31]

Josh: Please give me an open flame to cook with. I promise I'll be responsible 10 minutes later, lights cook top on fire and almost burns Vi's eyebrows off 🤣

[@RosenLaz]

23:14 editor shoulda put the lady jamming about thanksgiving in there, I see you josh.

[@YourPalJamieEllis]

This has been the goat Taco Bell item in my opinion since it premiered like 25 years ago. I remember the commercials, I remember trying my first one, and I remember it sending me to the freaking moon with flavor. I literally always get one in my order, I don't care how expensive they get

[@Aldwulf]

It's not even close to the same since they got rid of baja sauce and replaced it with spicy ranch back in 2014. I really miss the original cheesy gordita crunch and the original grilled stuffed burrito (which also had baja sauce).

[@Dnc1ngQueen]

Diaspora Co! This is the first time there's a fancy fast food ingredient that I have in my own pantry - highly recommend their chai masala blend too, they're incredible! Like the masa company, they're also single origin, regenerative when possible, and pay farmers 4x the commodity price.

[@VenomPansy]

Josh going "ranch it up" makes me desperately want Eric Andre on. Any segment, last meals obviously, but just being on any mythical kitcheb thing would be bonkers

[@ninjabard1898]

Puns are top tier humor and show a higher understanding of language.

[@kylematukaitus]

Seeing Josh give his best Stuart”look what I can do “ impression made my day

[@aejinwand4737]

Josh is the embodiment of letting your intrusive thoughts take over

[@NawaazBabamia]

I love the Matty Matheson "The Bear" reference at 13:58

[@Beanjaminfranklin]

Manic goblin line cook was the best description I could have ever asked for

[@TwentySevenist]

Arizonian here... Sonoran wheat is a wheat that was cultivated to grow in the sonoran desert. It's a soft white wheat which I feel like is more enjoyable than red & hard varieties.

[@wxyza123]

I always enjoy Vi but she was so on point in this video! Her commentary was insightful and fun, I think it is enjoyable to see someone match Josh's level of enthusiasm when he usually dominates a lot of the conversation. No offense, I obviously love Josh too but getting to see and hear more from Vi just gives me further reason to appreciate her.

[@SuperCripple]

Best Taco Bell item by far. Though I sorely miss being able to order it with the Cool Ranch shell and shredded chicken.

[@ScottHalvorson]

I think (don't know) it came before the gordita, but my favorite from the 90s was the double-decker taco with nacho cheese. It was a crunchy taco inside a regular soft taco shell with nacho cheese binding them together. As Josh mentioned it solved the crunchy taco problem of breaking apart in your hand, and who doesn't love more cheese?!

[@poojabalaji6410]

DesifiedTaco Bell is the serotonin I needed to keep me going through this week fr, and for that reason alone I’m on team give Josh a tandoor

[@mud_shrimp]

The CGC used to have Baja sauce on it, which was a pepperjack cheese sauce, and was better on the CGC than the current spicy ranch.

[@Aldwulf]

WAAAY better tbh

[@robertbalch9638]

This taco also used to have Baja sauce. It tasted like a pepper jack sauce.

[@Aldwulf]

Yes! It was absolutely incredible. It's not nearly as good now with spicy ranch. :(

If you add a tiny little pinch of xanthan gum then you don't have to worry about slowly streaming in the oil. You can just dump everything in the blender and it'll make perfect mayo every time.
