If I became a billionaire, I would have a butler whose job would be to get up at 6am, watch GMM, recreate / procure everything that's on the show (for the food shows mostly) and get it ready by 3pm so I could sit down, watch the episode, and do it at the same time Rhett and Link do it. Every. day.

You should do "is there anything better on cornbread than butter"....there could be some good stuff there.

[@TacTar]

You missed the opportunity to use crab to make a "crab" cake 🦀

[@Charlesb88]

They should have made a thickened crab bisque and spoon it over the cake as a “frosting”. 🦀 or even a crab salad puréed and spread over it.

[@amputeeright]

Crab dip would be good

[@meganwalker8511]

I would love to see an episode dedicated to the behind the scenes of gmm and how the whole operation works

[@toomanyopinions8353]

I'm absolutely blanking on what it is called but there is a podcast episode that another channel did with Rhett and Link that is about that.

[@thespankmyfrank]

​@@toomanyopinions8353You're thinking of Colin and Samir! It's a great video, they show the whole process and the offices.

To create Rhetts perfect cake, recreate the bean cake, but with that savoury Jalapeno and Cheese Cornbread they were talking up.

[@carrioncrow8191]

Rhett talking about going somewhere and eating while naked, made me think that he truly is Donnie Thornberry

[@beansandleaves]

I'm just imagining Rhett running into a store with a tube of beans yelling "I need a lighter!"

[@ZakBaganslover4ever9]

I think the mashed potatos makes TOO MUCH sense because like they were saying Thanksgiving dinner, you might drag your biscuits or dinner roll across the plate to clean it up. So like, you're already familiar with that experience.

[@its-aydonus6842]

KFC always has an option for dinner rolls with Mash and Gravy, at least here in AU. They are a perfect combo. (Almost perfect, stack a nugget or a tender in the roll with the Mash Gravy on top, that's heaven)

[@ZakBaganslover4ever9]

@@its-aydonus6842 you are exactly right. It doesn't come all put together in the US but you can order it together.

The very best thing to put on cake, even better than icing, is pudding.

[@bcaye]

I like how you think.

[@lesliechastain1769]

Mix a some pudding with a little whipped cream and fold in some heath bar pieces. So good on angel food cake.

[@HeyoItsZero]

If anyone from Mythical happens to see this, Better Help has a bad reputation for causing harm instead of help within its community and people have been asking content creators/influencers to please not promote it! It is very good in theory, but it has caused damage and it’s not okay!
