So glad we won the anchovy taste test! 🤗 We’ve been making our anchovies for many years and take a lot of pride in what we do! Try our tinned anchovies or anchovy paste in your Caesar salad - you’ll love it! 👌🏼

[@fayebell4716]

Your tomatoes are amazing too! Congrats on the win!

[@RemaMakki]

Agreed! Your can tomatoes are phenomenal ❤

[@gbTephlon]

I love your tomato paste tubes also! So convenient!

Gonna have to look and see if this brand is here

[@marcomedina9021]

I wouldn’t taint Caesar salad like that

Rhett's "take a little bite, don't make a face" gave such "dad with a picky kid" energy lol

[@melrobertson2743]

Link is as picky as a toddler .....

"act like your grandmas watching and youre trying to make her proud" got me

[@a.i.m.e.e]

Aww haha yes and then the 8:22 "I wanted... :( I wanted to do the thing for YOU this time, Link!"

[@munchablemoth]

It was so cute lol 😊

[@craigallen8988]

you know the word wholesome is overused in youtube comments, are you AI ?

[@BreakdancePeach]

​@@craigallen8988 That word's been popular for a decade haha. It's kind of funny that, even though generative AI has been mainstream for barely 1 year, a ton of people are already accusing each other of being AI.

[@emmatheoblivious]

“something your aunt that smells funny would have at her house” was such a hilariously perfect description

[@MsGinRoom13]

Link’s hair is about to become sentient

[@evanc5884]

They definitely stopped just choosing the package they were most attracted to, and just started picking the package they thought would taste good 😂

[@Savyflores]

Right XD they should have to select all packages first and then try the foods

[@IdentifiantE.S]

Its sooo true 😅

[@halloanonym]

Wait I thought that was the point

[@halloanonym]

As in: I'm probably most attracted to the packaging that makes me think the product tastes good

[@markipliertrash1562]

True xD

[@christophermonroe2055]

“As you can see we can’t” always makes my damn day. 😂😂

[@petsch6787]

I'm so proud of how Link handled the anchovies round! As someone who loves anchovies on pizza, I feel like he really gave each one a fighting chance.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Kinda surprised he didn’t like the first one at least, as much as he talks about liking bland foods and salty foods and not liking fishy flavors. Your average store-bought anchovies don’t have a fishy flavor, they’re just really salty. Seems right up his alley. Maybe it was a texture thing, or his freakout about the “hairs”.

[@MintyMagicMTG]

Link: In support… 20 seconds later: “I don’t think I said ‘In support’”

[@Azeez.AS17]

To be fair to link, he said "in support" when he was talking about them choosing the cheapest option every round, not when he was talking about his choice. 17:20

[@jonnjonzz5702]

​@@Azeez.AS17Typical Link apologist...

[@ther3aper561]

He said in support of Rhett picking his choice and then offered data that agreed with Rhetts pick, he also then said BUT because he wasn't going to pick the same thing as Rhett

​@Azeez.AS17 that's how I saw it too. He was talking about the overall picks.

The way Stevie and Rhett set up the anchovy round for Link is fantastic. They knew exactly how he was going to react. Love it!

Cento is a good quality brand though ive never had their anchovies but they're canned tomatoes are fantastic

Their tomato packaging is quite good, too, though my favorite widely-available tomato can label is Muir Glen.

“What’s the opposite of a pop? A pooch????” -Link, 2023

[@-BigBatPat-]

Huge missed opportunity for a "Poop Tart" joke. Great episode nonetheless.

[@zachw28]

I think it's adorable how they both thought they would have to share the not Pop Tarts

[@kitt3nbones581]

This feels like a classic episode, also have to say the Wheel of Mythicality couple were SO cute!!

[@Clown.College]

I already know that this video will be in marketing classes 😂

[@ducks7]

I’m living for Link’s hair🙏

[@Poseidon650]

What Link said made sense, Rhett’s guess has been backed up logically by the results of the previous rounds, then he said “BUT, when it comes to cookie dough I gotta go with the weird packaging”

[@KittyChan398]

Definitely said that BUT in there 😂

[@butyoucancallmesam]

Link's pompadour has a personality of its own. It's a little sassy.

[@emilywynstra]

How do we all know EXACTLY what Link's talking about with the quirky packaged toaster pastry coming from the pantry of the aunt that smells funny 🤣

[@connorjones5817]

I think Link was right on the cookie dough "In support of" bit. He said "In support of what you're saying, every round we have chosen the down the middle option. Not the fancy or the weird. HOWEVER, with cookie dough I always feel like I want to try something new."

[@sadshawtyyy]

3:22 “The type of noodle that will lie to you”. I guess you could call that noodle an IMPASTA 😂😂😂

[@DeRoche022]

I don't know why I thought for the cookie dough round that they were just gonna have Rhett and Link eating the raw dough.

[@Thamometer]

Just occurred to me that Rhett and Link's R and L also can represent Right and Left. Like when radiographers use a marker on their film.

[@ImTheOne124]

BRUH….”TOAST EM POP UPS” 😂😂 NO ONE SAID IT RIGHT THE WHOLE TIME

This episode they both didn’t care as much and it created an amazing vibe 😂

[@divalicious6178]

"I'm not a noodle" is exactly what an im-pasta would say...😂🥁

[@SkinnyWakanda]

I’ve found that the biggest difference between Poptarts and other toaster pastries (as a Poptart reviewer) is the texture, Poptarts crust is a bit thinner and crispier, that’s how I’d be able to tell!

[@VineyardGHS]

That's not true there are two other brands that also come with partially cooked dough just like pop tart

[@HelloSydney97]

Do you put that on resumes? Pop Tart reviewer?😂

[@razorsmoothbarber8076]

I agree. There is a local breakfast place in my area, and their spin on the “pop tart” is just a toaster strudel…

@@HelloSydney97 Maybe I should 😂

[@skippythealien9627]

are you a fan of Toaster Strudels?

[@ilikenothingtoo]

I never felt more like Link than watching him eat anchovies.

[@ttt5020]

The title isnt super accurate- the pricing of the label isnt a factor at all, its the LOOK of the label vs quality of food- price isnt considered.

[@lovelyroses5035]

The subtle Try Guy cheating scandal reference during Pop Tarts from Link is honestly slay

[@PopularNobody]

16:31 Link does indeed say "in support"

[@daphneloose5880]

I was really expecting to see the Linkster gag on the anchovy round. LOL.

[@emmaluna9095]

I actually really love this! It's actually really funny because it actually lines up with how retail and sales works! I've been working retail for awhile now and we always get these promo items that are fancy labeled items of like soups or crackers or drinks and they really aren't great!
