  • - Today we ask the age old question.

  • Will It Pickle?

  • Let's talk about that.

  • ♪(intro music)♪

  • Good Mythical Morning!

  • As you know, on this show, we are in the habit of finding out if things will.

  • Mm-hm.

  • And the thing we are going to be finding out if things will today is: pickling!

  • - And all you need to pickle something is time. - Well, that's not exactly true.

  • You also need boiling water and white vinegar and spices--

  • - Okay, also that stuff. - And then the thing you're gonna pickle.

  • But we had all that stuff, too, and we put all that stuff in jars, sealed them up,

  • - and waited upwards of a month-- - Upwards!

  • For some of these things to pickle.

  • And dare I say, there are many things that we are going to experience today

  • that have never been pickled, and may never be pickled again

  • when we ask the age-old question

  • (both) Will it pickle?

  • Okay, we wanted to kick things off with something shaped like a pickle

  • But it's not a pickle

  • - (Rhett) Bananas. - (Both) Will it pickle?

  • - Here it is. What? - It looks like pickles.

  • That is appetizing. It looks like an eel specimen.

  • - (laughs) Yes. - You know, like you go in the back

  • - of a museum, where the're-- - I always go in the back of museums.

  • - Uh-oh. - Sizzle, sizzle.

  • - Oh, gosh. - (crew laughs)

  • - I don't-- - It smells like bananas and pickle juice together.

  • - I don't like bananas, uh-- - I like bananas and I love pickles.

  • But I'm hopeful that this will turn me on to bananas.

  • - They're a little limp. - (crew laughs)

  • - Oh, goodness. That is a juicy naner. Wow. - That looks like some sort of sea creature.

  • - I know, man. - You know?

  • - In the back of a museum. - Do you have a fork over there?

  • I does, and I'm gonna eat off of your plate.

  • Okay, you want full half, huh? I was thinking it was more like that size.

  • Okay, yep, alright. We should name it before we eat it, or after?

  • - A bickle. - B'nickle.

  • -B'nickle. - (laughs)

  • - I feel like this could be something. - I'm hopeful.

  • - This could be something. - Dink it.

  • (crew laughs)

  • - It's very jelly. - (whispers) It's not that bad.

  • - The spices are really strong. - Yeah, because the banana is so absorbent--

  • - Mh-hm. - that it just took all the pickle stuff in

  • in a really intense way. I want more.

  • It's like eating a really mushy, if not rancid, pickle. How is that a good thing?

  • Like, people like pickles because they're crispy. They're crunchy.

  • They (imitates crunching noise)

  • Yeah, but maybe it's time for something new, Link. Maybe they've been sending

  • pickles in a crispy direction, and we need to go in a limp direction.

  • (crew laughs)

  • - Alright. (sucking in air) - Hey, but the banana-ness of it

  • is very appealing, it really is! It tastes like a delicacy, like--

  • It's refreshing.

  • It's like you visit some island, and they're like, "This is our specialty."

  • And you're like, "Oh, pickled banana?"

  • - Pickled banana? - I'm glad I'm on vacation!

  • Will it pickle?

  • (both) Yes!

  • There is one food on the planet that is a welcome addition to any meal,

  • but is it a welcome addition to a pickle jar?

  • - (Link) Bacon. - (both) Will it pickle?

  • - Mm. - Another museum specimen.

  • - I think they're all gonna feel that way. - Yeah. Now, again, I have high hopes

  • for this one. Bacon--

  • - Oh gosh. The fat has settled at the top. - Ooh!

  • - There's a fat layer. - Ooh, it's stinky.

  • Ooh. No, hold on, that's not necessarily stinky.

  • - Is that stink or is that goodness? - Smell. I think that's goodness.

  • - Smells like a smoky pickle. - It's a good stink.

  • Mmm! That's a good stink!

  • (funny voice) Yeah, man, I like a good stink! (normal voice) Alright, throw that,

  • throw that bacon pickle on here.

  • I think you just, you embrace the pig part of this and just call it a pig-ckle.

  • - (laughs) Pig-- - Pig-ckle

  • - Pig-ckle. - Pig-ckle.

  • - Alright. - The fat is just a little much to handle.

  • It looks like a sulphur deposit.

  • (fork clinking against jar) Very scientific.

  • Throw it, and mow it. Pig-ckle.

  • (Rhett) Yeah, by hand. We should eat this by hand.

  • Tried to smell it, but I touched it with my nose.

  • This is gonna be good.

  • This is more bacon-y than the banana was banana-y.

  • (chewing sounds)

  • There's no doubt, right off the bat. It's like sour bacon.

  • - (crew laughs) - Sour bacon.

  • And if that sounds good to you, then we're in agreement.

  • I mean, this one's a no-brainer. They pickle pig's feet already.

  • Why can't we pickle pig's belly?

  • - We can. - We did.

  • - (Link) Will it pickle? - (both) Yes.

  • Alright, now that we've had some salty, why not have some sweet?

  • And chocolatey, and bar-y?

  • - (Rhett) Snickers! - (both) Will it pickle?

  • - Oh gosh-- - Where's the Snickers?

  • - Looks like an iced mocha. - It does! (laughs)

  • (imitates Link laughing) It does! (laughs) You're so right!

  • (laughs) Was that an over-reaction?

  • No, I want you to react to everything I say like that. (laughs)

  • I like when you react to my ideas like that.

  • - Ew! - It's probably not gonna taste like iced mocha.

  • - It's sludge! - It's sludge!

  • - What is that black ball in it? - That's a Snicker ball!

  • - Snicker's don't got a black ball! - There's two black balls in there!

  • That's one of the s-pickle spices. Alright, let's smell it.

  • - (laughs) Spickle spices? - (laughs)

  • (Heavy Southern accent) That's one of the spickle spices. (Normal voice) Oh, it's a clove.

  • - Woah. - Hm.

  • We're gonna have to drink this.

  • - This is a spoonie. - I don't know how we're gonna--

  • This is a spoonie.

  • - Oh my goodness. - Don't get one of those black balls though.

  • - That'll overpower you. - I'm going low and I'm coming up slow.

  • Look at this. It has just disintegrated everything. Look, it's just, it perfectly

  • - separates all the parts of the Snickers. - It's Snicker parts.

  • I mean, look at that! It's just perfectly separated Snickeredness.

  • - Pickled Snicker parts! - Pickled Snickers.

  • - Pickled Snicker's parts-- - Snickles.

  • Otherwise known as Snickles. (laughs)

  • Snickles! We could sell these at the fair, and we could call ourselves St. Snickolas.

  • (both laugh)

  • St. Snickolas! Where are we selling them?

  • - Christmas fair. - Christmas fair.

  • (sings) Jolly old St.--

  • - (sings) Snicker parts. - (sings) Snickolas.

  • - (normal voice) Jolly old St. Snicker parts. - (normal voice) Dink it.

  • - I don't dislike it. - I do.

  • - Really? - Yeah, man!

  • (crew laughs) But St. Snickolas was such a good thing!

  • - I'm sorry, Rhett. - Pickled Snickle parts--

  • I was there, I was committed in my mind. But there is a part of me that thinks,

  • maybe the Snickers would be good without the pickle.

  • Pickled peanuts on their own could have been okay, but we blew that.

  • - Peanuts by themselves are good. - Pickled peanuts is good?

  • - The chocolate is what's bad. - Pickled peanuts pickle.

  • But chocolate parts of Snicker parts don't pickle.

  • - (Link) Will it pickle? - (both) No.

  • Now this next dish is already the perfect combination of two food items,

  • but can we enhance it by pickling?

  • - (Rhett) Chicken and waffles. - (both) Will it pickle?

  • - Mm-hmm. Chicken and waffles. Oh, yes! - So we got chicken and waffles.

  • And we have to combine them in our mouths because they've been pickled separately.

  • Which one's the chicken and which one's the waffle, Link? (laughs)

  • It is hard to tell at this point, but this is the waffle, this is the chicken.

  • - You gotta put the chicken-- - But the chicken--

  • - on top of the waffles. - goes on top of the waffles.

  • - Right, so open the waffles. - Alright.

  • - Oh gosh. - (crew laughs)

  • It's absorbed all the pickle.

  • - I might have to rake it out. - It's like oatmeal now. Waffle meal.

  • It's like grits. It just smells like pickle.

  • Too much pickle starts to simmer in the belly. Is your belly simmering?

  • Ew! Plop the leg--

  • - Woah, hey, now hold on. Hold on sucker. - Pickled leg.

  • Now that is a restaurant item, right there. Pickled chicken and waffles.

  • - Chickle... - and wickle.

  • (high-pitched voice) Chickle and wickle! (normal voice) Chickle and wickle.

  • But still though. (laughs) (crew laugh)

  • - Um-- - Get some of that chicken skin.

  • So, I'm gathering up a perfect forkful of waffle. A forkful of waffle helps the

  • fried chicken go down.

  • - Mm-kay. Chickle and wickle. - You be Chickle, I'll be Wickle?

  • We'll both be both. Here we go.

  • It's the waffle that's causing me all types of trouble. Chicken's getting lost

  • - in the mix, he wants some more attention. - It just tastes like it could be anything.

  • You could name any item on Earth that's in my mouth right now, and I could not

  • - disagree with you. - (laughs) Right. 'Cuz it's--it's amorphous.

  • It's like the universe is in my mouth right now; a representative sample

  • - of the universe. - Ugh, okay, I got it down. Not--it's not

  • - horrible. - It's not bad. Chicken's not bad.

  • You know what? I'm gonna say officially, fried chicken will pickle.

  • But that's not what we're asking. We're asking for the total package of chicken

  • - and waffles-- - So chickle works?

  • - Wickle won't. - Wickle won't.

  • Mm-hm. So, overall, as a package, will it pickle?

  • (both) No.

  • Well, we've eaten bull testicles on this show before, so we figure, why stop there?

  • That's right. Bull penis.

  • - (Link) Bull penis. - (both) Will it pickle?

  • I don't really desire to look over at that jar right now.

  • (groans) I see something curled up right there.

  • (groans) Oh, it's just another banana. Dang, that's like a--it's like a nautilus.

  • There's a nautilus swimmin' in there. A naughty-lus. (laughs)

  • (crew laughs)

  • - Work with me. - We should naught eat it.

  • (both laugh) But we're about to.

  • Okay, um. Now, I'm told that the official title for the item in this jar is a pizzle.

  • - That's the official name-- - Official name of a bull penis.

  • - Is a pizzle. - A pizzle.

  • - Grab a plate, there, and hand it to me. - Now, there are black balls in here as well.

  • Those are not bull testicles, because they're way too small and I've eaten

  • - bull testicles before. - Throw a pizzle on here.

  • - (sighs) Oh gosh. - Is it firm?

  • - It's got some structure to it. - Ooh.

  • This guy needs to see a doctor. Why is it like that?

  • When you put it in the pickle jar, was it like that, or did it curl up as--

  • - (Chase) As it boiled. - Oh, as it boiled it curled.

  • - (Chase) Yep. - Good to know.

  • - Now I know what not to do. - (laughs) Don't boil it!

  • Don't get into a hot tub over 104 degrees for too long.

  • Plate it, man. Man. Oh, gosh.

  • It's so firm. (crew laughs)

  • (dull noise) (crew laughs)

  • There's nothing phallic about it, though at this point.

  • Man. So, cut me off a slice of that pizzle.

  • (crew laughs)

  • - Oh my goo--Oh! You know what I feel like-- - It's like sawing through birch.

  • It goes against nature for a man to saw a penis.

  • (crew laughs) Yeah.

  • You know, it's just like, this is not something that should happen.

  • - There's a little cross-section for you. - You can tell how old it is.

  • (crew laughs)

  • - Mmm. - (laughs)

  • Alright. Um, oh my goodness. I can't sink my fork into it!

  • Well don't worry, you're teeth will do just fine.

  • Is that skin, or a layer of something?

  • - Don't--don't ask questions about it. - What do we call it?

  • - Pickle--pizckle? - Pi--pizckle--pizzlekickle.

  • - Dill penis. (both laugh)

  • - Bullzickle. A bullsickle. Bulls-- - A bullsickle!

  • - Alright. Oh, gosh. - Alright, let's just do it, man.

  • Let's grow a pair and eat a penis. (all laugh)

  • Alright. (laughs)

  • - Get it--get it lined up with me. - Chomp in three--

  • - Okay. - two, one.

  • (crunching noise) (crew groans in disgust)

  • Uh-uh. (crunches)

  • It's like eating a hose.

  • (gags) (crew laughs)

  • Mouth check.

  • - Looks like a lemon bar. - (gags)

  • I know, man! Welcome to my world. (gags)

  • - I can't. - We can try. We can try.

  • - I can't. I cannot. I cannot. - We can try! We can try we can try!

  • - I cannot, I cannot. - We can try, we can try, we can try!

  • - You try first. - Be the pizzle king.

  • (crew laughs) (Eddie) What?

  • If you wanna be the pizzle king, you gotta pay the price. You gotta pied the piper.

  • And eat his pipe. (crew laughs)

  • If you wanna be the pizzle king, you gotta eat the pied piper's pipe?

  • - Yeah. - Alright, do it. Whatever gets you there, brother.

  • I'm like a superhero and my superpower is eating pickled bull penis.

  • That's a great power to have.

  • Just do it! Just swallow it! Like a pill. Do it.

  • - Pizzle king! - He did it!

  • - You did it! Alright, I can do it too. - (laughs) Really?

  • (gags) (crew laughs)

  • (gags some more)
