Everyone knows that the Superspicy Curry actually originated from the Kirby series.

[@gamingv1nce7]

“Toxic-Atomic Curry!”

[@IdentifiantE.S]

Kirby's games have so many types of food at the same time

[@delawarefurret]

Poyo

[@tinyetoile5503]

They're both from Sakurai though

[@Rammy_Latin]

Yeah, I thought that they'd bring that up but nah I guess they don't know 😅

[@pdreding]

First he made Curry of Life, now he makes Curry of Death.

[@LITTLE1994]

Lol

[@hsandco9560]

Curry balance

[@00yiggdrasill00]

Just came from that vid. I honestly appreciate that he puts himself through this while wondering just why he enjoys doing this

[@ultracarl1014]

​@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist2Amen to Jesus, for he is our Lord and Savior

[@ahegpbtrftcotu]

This could be a Basics with Babish, but I'd like to see Alvin do potato chips... _from Death Note._

[@angterrastriker6535]

I'm going to take, this chip, and... EAT IT

[@NarutooftheRasengan]

Alvin will add Kosher salt to it like Babish does lol

[@Nebotek1]

@@angterrastriker6535Im going to see this comment, and like it!

[@OniLordMiki]

Those would be consomme chips.

[@HiddenWindshield]

@@Nebotek1 All according to keikaku! (Note: keikaku means plan)

[@anthonynora323]

Superspicy Curry comes from Kirby’s Dreamland and got reused in smash, much like every other item

[@Rammy_Latin]

I guess they think it's a Smash original 😅

[@MuttonTheDragon]

Both games are by Sakurai, so… cousin games?

[@Ned_Zeppelin_324]

It’s been in at least three Smash games compared to only one Kirby game so I think that’s fair

[@Rammy_Latin]

@@Ned_Zeppelin_324 Fair. But it has made appearances in more than one Kirby game.

[@TheTheisson]

@@Rammy_Latin also it was in the anime where it had an entire episode around it

[@tinyetoile5503]

Has this show already done the strawberry shortcake from Kirby: Squeak Squad? Because if not, there's certainly an idea! I always wanted to eat it sooooo badly as a kid...

[@borby4584]

If you don’t go through a quest of vengeance across the continent, then you did not earn the right to eat the shortcake

[@vanessam93900]

Alvin made Strawberry Shortcake from Death Note

[@Volti-Vagra]

So since the shortcake was already done Maybe the invincibility lollypop??? I mean thats candy making, entirely different skill set but im drawing a blank on dishes_seen_in_kirby

[@Danganfinronpa]

Speaking of cake, I feel like the honeycomb cake from Tinkerbell would taste delicious!

[@tinyetoile5503]

​@@vanessam93900 Right, I thought they'd done strawberry shortcake before but couldn't remember what it was for!

[@El_Omar2203]

The Superspicy Curry originated from the Kirby series, specifically Kirby's Dream Land, predating all copy abilities.

[@jason4443]

It could be considered a precursor to the Fire ability, and its variants.

[@illford6921]

At this point it's a smash item first by virtue of 90% of people knowing it from smash

[@Hawk7886]

@@illford6921 that's not how it works lol

[@ihaveakirbyobessesion2617]

Love to see so many kirby enthusiasts in the comments. These are my people

[@alexgeorge501]

Tuff: "Wow is that fire Kirby!?" Meta-Knight: "No, it is a reaction from Kawasaki's cooking!" Chef Kawasaki: "Kirby finally felt it!"

[@terezar880]

Not gonna lie, the curry on fire looks so sick. Shame it didn't taste great afterwards, though 😅

[@philllllllll]

Would probably be fine if it was just a bit less of it.

[@Vyrezz]

but the one without the alcohol is delicious tho

[@nathanbathan]

you could say it looked 'fire' hehehe

[@JackTse]

Please don’t waste food

[@GDOutOfContextGD]

@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist2 I'm sorry brother, but your comment is not-at-all related to the original comment or the video.

[@Barrel4336]

Sidenote Tips for the comments - make sure if you use mustard oil, you let it get properly hot before throwing anything into it. Otherwise the acrid flavors won't vaporize out completely

[@SonicGamerGirl2006]

The superspicy curry actually made its debut in Kirby's debut game, Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy, released in 1992.

[@the_doug_digital]

Beating the shower of comments screaming that this is actually a Kirby dish

[@juditheria]

id love if he did one of the food ticket meals from splatoon 3! this was great

[@humbloom]

SECONDING THIS BY A LOT YES!! or even one of the dishes from Crusty Sean would be just as great!

[@da_xbox360]

They could also add the ability drinks in the bags to pair with it

[@dexthedrone]

I always assumed the Superspicy Curry would be a Japanese styled curry for some reason.

[@chimeracooks]

that’s what I assumed also, with kirby and smash being japanese video games haha

[@KoalaTeaGuy]

Alvin's face at the first bite 😂

[@01001011010010010100]

I'm sure plenty already pointed out that this is a Kirby series dish. Adding to that, there was an episode of the Kirby anime they showed how it got made. Maybe you can incorporate that if there's ever a Botched by Alvin?

[@firedrakegirl13]

Accidents by Alvin? To keep the theme of the names

[@tweer64]

If you're not playing Smash Bros. with items turned on, you're not really playing Smash Bros.

[@lanceplaxton6967]

I actually remember the curry from the Kirby series, especially in the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! anime, in the episode, "A Spice Odyssey".

[@acgearsandarms1343]

The curry wasn’t the only highlight of the episode. There was also those other spicy foods. Everyone burning themselves just for the new thing.

[@ThumpingThromnambular]

Can't wait to try this with a reasonable amount of spice.

[@pt3or5]

More spice then?

[@culticplanet]

but more alcohol?

[@IStevenSeagal]

@@culticplanetHARAM

[@lopez2075]

Actually the curry is from kirbys games! Funniest representation being star allies where the curry changes depending on the difficulty and is a running theme for kirby!

[@Clepto_and_Co]

Kirby using the curry to gimp Bowser gives me life

[@bloodgloss66]

for the next BWB, Andrew needs to do the foods from Max and Ruby (the cakes from “Bunny Cakes”, candy from “Ruby’s Candy Shop”, and the berry smoothies from an episode whose name i somehow don’t remember)

[@Bryce_the_Woomy_Boi]

So spicy that Luigi's face glitches

[@ALEX19960609]

Is it black powder, black garlic powder or black pepper powder (grounded)? Cuz one of them is non edible and could explode when heat is applied to it

[@kurathchibicrystalkitty5146]

Ahhh! This is perfect! Well done, Alvin, and everyone on the team.

[@ricseeds4835]

Perfect? He forgot an important ingredient. The garlic ginger paste

[@kurathchibicrystalkitty5146]

@@ricseeds4835 I meant that it looked perfect, and that I want to eat it. 😅Sorry for not being clearer.

[@Mellion555]

That flaming curry is by far one of the sickest things I have ever seen! I love how the fire was purple and orange

[@KnightSlasher]

We went from smashing bros in smash bros to smashing delicious curry in curry

[@youssefbencheikh8637]

Smashing bros? 😳

[@natecgames4612]

I feel like the cake from paper Mario sounds like it would be fun to make. Both the ways that Mario makes it, and Peach

[@1BlueYoshi]

Only if he bakes it for 4 and a half years, just so it's authentic

[@oswaldfriedman7116]

I think Slowpoke tail would be a neat dish. I’d be very curious how it would adapt into real life. Perhaps a tail shaped meatloaf? Ox tail?

[@banditligroin]

Probably oxtail

[@LightsJusticeZ]

I imagine a mix of wagyu beef with dark chicken meat (thighs mostly).

[@kaitlyn__L]

I always imagined it as being like eating an even bigger giant shrimp or prawn, but with dolphin hide instead of an exoskeleton. It’s fun to read everyone else’s interpretation!

[@alexv3375]

Nice! If you're doing any more Kirby-inspired dishes, could I also suggest the *Deluxe Mountain Cake* from _Kirby Battle Royale_ (IE. the truly humongous cake that Kirby and Bandana Waddle Dee compete in Dedede's tournament to obtain) and the *Carby Cake* and/or *Kirby Burger* from _Kirby & the Forgotten Land_ as well?

[@daltonthurley1193]

Hey Alvin, can you make Yeto’s Reekfish Soup from Snowpeak Manor in The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess?

[@chadatkins825]

^^^^^^^^^ YES PLEASE.

[@UltrakillZer0]

W

[@ZTimeGamingYT]

This dish is absolutely fire! Kirby would obviously know what foods are delicious or not...or just consume anything and everything.

[@PolishBigfootCircle11]

2:54 "black powder" My brother in Christ, you want it spicy, not EXPLOSIVE

[@antonfrederick5831]

I'm from india, and hearing old monk made me happy

[@LITTLE1994]

Knowing both Kirby and Smash, I would LOVE to try this...

[@andrewniemiec8447]

That curry is from various Kirby games and the anime Kirby right back at ya 🍛

[@yeajustno7045]

Alvin always looks like a surprised fish when he eats

[@negljbreakergaming]

fun fact this item is actually from Kirby

[@liamcarter625]

Two recommendations: Saffron Corn with Jalapeño Honey Butter from Shrek 3. The No-Bake Carrot Cookies from Abbott Elementary.

[@der.VogelA]

It's actually from Kirby

[@ashleyknight2453]

Alvin: shames us for using items Also Alvin: admits to using items Lol

[@waheedabdullah6371]

Can the next Arcade with Alvin be any dish from Pokemon Cafe Mix

[@SeraphimKnight]

I know this was probably just a reason to make a different, special type of curry but I'm pretty sure the actual in-game curry is most probably Japanese curry, especially with that plating of half rice half sauce...

[@abbyallen4421]

There are no reference videos in the description that I see, only the babish websites and products that dont have the recipe on them

[@alexanderlehane3459]

Another Arcade with Alvin, another hope I can ask for a Don't Starve video

[@GreatBigPillock]

"If you've ever played Smash Bros. with items, shame on you." Sod off, items are great fun.

[@oilybat3269]

Do coach’s Burger tank order from L4D2 (Barbeque bacon burger, large order of fries, orange soda with no ice, apple pie slice)

[@xalwine]

2:43 black powder? This is an explosive meal!

[@ricseeds4835]

I was told the reference video would be in the description

[@barrishautomotive]

"The curry is now on fire." "You are now holding a duck."

[@katwags20]

The flames were badass and Alvin’s face when he ate it made me snort 😅

[@thepokekid01]

2:34 in my best Dave voice "AALLLVIIIIIIIINNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

[@someenthusiast]

I'm pretty sure that in order to pour alcohol cleanly you need to pour it on a really hot container, then set it on fire. Usually a really small saucepan is used.

[@korin2538]

The addition of black powder must be the real kick 2:53

[@soupystudios4813]

You should make either the yellow green and purple cake, the white green and pink cake, or the pink tarts in the twins house from the game Fran Bow!!! ❤

[@vagentzero]

If you ever played Smash with items, you like to have fun and embrace a little chaos, and that's awesome.

[@TerrariaMcJo]

As soon as I saw that thumbnail, I told myself "Alvin, don't eat that."

[@fmsdraws5496]

Would be cool to see the lunchboxes from TF2. Really cool video!

[@SheyD78]

That looks fantastic, going to have to give it a try (minus the chillis and most of the chilli powdwer, I'm not a spice nut)

[@Magmafrost13]

3:22 .... kashmiri chili powder isnt spicy. Its mostly used to add colour

[@Comeonfhqwhgads95]

He should do a Kirby special. He can make the strawberry shortcake from squeak squad, the invincibility lollipop, the Karby cake from FL, and the super spicy curry… oh wait…

[@groovy_9633]

Something else from the dee cafe?

[@d.machine5678]

0:30 *instantly hits like*

[@ceerstar851]

I haven't watched this channel in months, and I come back and Alvin sounds just like Andrew.😂

“Real men use items!” - Tag by Masahiro Sakurai

[@dylanfleurentin647]

Thanks for doing a dish from my favorite game. 🔥

[@PeteyPandaExtras]

I wanna see Alvin try and make the Golden Delight from Terraria, might be interesting to see

[@meshiterofoodblog1615]

Items are gold! Jigglypuffs got the fan! Run!!!

[@cthulusaurusrex2483]

“Green chiles” is too vague especially because that normally refers to Hatch green chile by default. So for anyone wondering I’m fairly sure those are Serrano peppers

[@DumbBunny5328]

🤓 uhh actually the spicy curry comes from the Kirby’s Dreamland released on Gameboy in 1993.

[@cha0stheory658]

Two crazy recipe ideas to recreate include: The Flaming Homer/Moe from the Simpsons The Meaturduckballizza from the Thundermans

[@michaelward3366]

2:55 Not black pepper, black powder. BOOM

[@kode_kween]

Where's the reference link video? It's been 4 days & I only see marketing links in the description.

[@aidangolembiewski1225]

Billy: Mmm! Spicy! 😋🔥

[@kyoooo]

That flaming part is so nice tho

[@articusramos808]

The kirby anime introduced me to the toxic atomic curry too

[@boobootittleman7299]

I just thought it was just spicy spaghetti this whole time.

[@twotail612]

"If you ever played Smash Bros with items, shame on you" This man doesn't know how to have fun.

[@amarmehta01]

Alvin is a pyro CONFIRMED!

[@IGGYTheClown]

May I recommend Everclear It's a odorless and flavorless flamable alcohol. ( Unless you consider the burning sensation of alcohol a flavor)

[@charlirenner193]

Okay, if you're going to go down this road you have to make the coffee and curry for Persona 5. I know you made the burger, but come on, it's Leblanc coffee and curry.

[@vishalkalicharan7710]

Next arcade: make El Fuerte's stew from Street Fighter 4!

[@Nonamulyono2017]

Amazing cooking

[@brokensouls2855]

ahhh its the black powder that makes it fiery

[@thetribunaloftheimaginatio5247]

Yeah, the pyrotechnics are just for show... as they are with Bananas Foster or Crepes Suzette.

[@isaacacosta8848]

So sad that you ruined the taste with the flame but man that looked amazing and was true to the source material! Great job

[@sagnikbagchi5076]

I'mma make this ASAP!!!

[@jiggles.3397]

i missed this and it makes my brain happy

[@tktyga77]

Funnily enough, a curry is more a cooking style than a dish (at least in South Asia), just as a stir-fry is (at least in East Asia). Also, see such cases as gulai, kalio & rendang (which would basically be wet, semi-wet/semi-dry & dry respectively) among the different kinds of currying

[@TankTheDragon]

The default option is items on The single-player modes like classic and spirit board are items on I'm gonna keep playing with items on, the way Sakurai intended

[@noInterestingThoughts]

Wait I feel like I missed a whole chapter when did Alvin leave tasty and come to babish😂

[@willtjipta]

I'd like Alvin to do the Beef Jerky shakes from Digimon

[@dolphincrescent54]

That curry looks delicious! I hope I can make it!

[@pjludda4323]

Oh, yes...Make sure to cut the chilis with your bare hands... Then make sure to rub your eyes after... One MUST test his TOLERANCE! @_@

[@SonicfanTheNightfury5099]

If I want to make my curry spicy, I use Buldak sauce

[@LightningStarSC]

Superspicy Curry is a Kirby series item, not a Smash Bros. original.

[@ejaybugboy3yt]

I've said it before and I'll keep on asking, Foxtail Millet Ramen from Dr. Stone.

[@GideonFuston]

The Superspicy Curry is from Kirby's Dream Land, not Super Smash Brothers. The Superspicy Curry is also a Japanese curry, not Indian. Also, you said the reference video was in the description...it was not.

[@acgearsandarms1343]

Wouldn’t this curry be similar to the atomic curry from Kirby Right Back At Ya!? I think we need Soulmelter EX Curry next. Would be a cool dish to make. With all those bottles and skulls garnishing the plate of curry.

[@outlet5501]

You say refrence videos in description but i dont see them my guy

[@EX0ART]

You should try doing the question mark corn dog from gravity falls.

[@KrisKrisKrisKrisKris]

hey the reference videos for the curry are not in the description
