00:00:05   flavored cookies lattes beer you name it

00:00:09   if only I was designed to have taste

00:00:11   buds maasai I guess I'll have to ask my

00:00:15   developers to deploy a pumpkin patch

00:00:18   alright it's pumpkin spice day hmm

00:00:22   that wasn't what I was planning on

00:00:23   saying is that like a spooky pumpkin

00:00:30   are so many pumpkin spice things and we

00:00:32   are going to eat them all yeah you and

00:00:36   this is one of the crazier things that

00:00:38   we have done which is saying a lot we

00:00:40   have a veritable display of pumpkin

00:00:42   spice everything like literally

00:00:45   everything everything we've got

00:00:47   marshmallows we've got some Entenmann's

00:00:49   doughnuts we have butter we have a whole

00:00:51   bunch of Starbucks stuff we have hand

00:00:54   soap we have whipped cream well you

00:00:58   smell it we have pop-tarts we have

00:01:13   already yeah starvation coffee we have

00:01:15   peanut butter pumpkin spice yeah peanut

00:01:18   butter we have Bailey's actually we're

00:01:21   gonna get a little tipsy Oh Bailey's and

00:01:22   and the technic category intern thing

00:01:25   yeah oh it's not it's captain captain

00:01:28   morgans Jack Oblast there you go

00:01:31   The Jackal blast okay pumpkin spiced rum

00:01:33   so because we have so many different

00:01:35   things we're going to try and pit

00:01:36   together

00:01:37   categories of what we're eating and rank

00:01:40   them in there pumpkin spiciness and just

00:01:43   how good they are whether they're

00:01:44   revolting yeah yeah yeah

00:01:47   so all right where do you want to start

00:01:48   we have some cold drinks that I'm

00:01:49   worried about that I use now let's start

00:01:51   with the Starbucks and like that with

00:01:53   the coffee group basically so we have

00:01:55   some fresh strange from Starbucks mhm

00:01:56   that would I think we should drink first

00:01:58   cuz they're they're you know hot and

00:02:00   fresh okay so I'm gonna start out with

00:02:03   the Starbucks pumpkin spice latte this I

00:02:07   think is what started the whole craze if

00:02:10   not it at least popularized it it seems

00:02:13   like everything

00:02:13   is pumpkin spice everything and that as

00:02:16   far as I can tell it started with the

00:02:18   Starbucks pumpkin spice latte I'm not

00:02:21   entirely clear if there is like an

00:02:22   official definition of what pumpkin

00:02:24   spice means this is my opening statement

00:02:27   but it seems to mean like cinnamon clove

00:02:32   maybe dry ginger or maybe allspice elana

00:02:36   sometimes I don't know yeah I don't know

00:02:38   I don't know spices it's also unclear

00:02:41   whether things that are labeled pumpkin

00:02:43   spice need to actually include pumpkin

00:02:45   or if it just is like the spices no it's

00:02:49   good um again and it's spice but we do

00:02:50   have some things here that are like

00:02:51   pumpkin cheesecake yeah though I don't

00:02:54   know how that's gonna be and there's

00:02:55   also like there are things are labeled

00:02:57   pumpkin pie spice or pumpkin pie

00:03:01   flavored and so we have a couple of

00:03:03   those here and there but I didn't want

00:03:04   to have too many of those because it

00:03:06   becomes a pretty broad category and it

00:03:08   certainly opens up the question of like

00:03:09   what does what does this even still mean

00:03:11   we have peeps we have pumpkin spice

00:03:13   peeps yeah they actually make me a

00:03:14   little day look horrible that they've

00:03:17   deflated yeah they are fresh they at the

00:03:19   expiration date is like two years from

00:03:21   now so yes I don't know what happened to

00:03:22   those peeps and I can't believe we're

00:03:24   gonna eat them yeah they're well we'll

00:03:27   put the pumpkin spice marshmallows yeah

00:03:29   I'm trying the pumpkin spiced chai from

00:03:32   Starbucks

00:03:33   spiced chai latte this is very good

00:03:35   because it's lunchtime for us and we are

00:03:37   very hungry so I'm trying the Starbucks

00:03:39   regular pumpkin spice latte it the

00:03:41   father of it all the mother of it all

00:03:43   gave birth it's a mother yeah sorry

00:03:46   you're right that is it's good I chose

00:03:51   really good to see this is good okay

00:03:54   pass pass it tastes nothing like coffee

00:03:56   at all it's it tastes like hot milk with

00:03:59   with sugar and flavor in it ooh yeah it

00:04:03   tastes nothing like coffee I would say

00:04:05   taste any pumpkin your chai your hot

00:04:07   pumpkin spiced chai latte tastes almost

00:04:11   the same but with a slight hint of chai

00:04:13   flame

00:04:14   well chai is also kind of pumpkin easy

00:04:16   that's also like spiced up and yeah so

00:04:18   your chai has a little bit I prefer mine

00:04:21   I think it's just it's so it's so

00:04:23   nothing it's just like just milk it's

00:04:25   hot sugar milk and it's eight

00:04:27   it's a pleasant flavor it's not like a

00:04:29   bad flavor I don't think the Chive

00:04:31   urgent of it works very well I don't

00:04:32   think it's a good combo see I disagree I

00:04:35   think the chai does work very well it

00:04:36   gives it a nice new layer I like it a

00:04:38   lot I'm gonna try it okay we also got

00:04:39   the latte iced and we got a Frappuccino

00:04:41   so we're gonna try those we did a lot of

00:04:45   shopping today we had to go everywhere

00:04:46   there's a Sony please it was so hard to

00:04:48   find yeah we we thought we'd be able to

00:04:50   just go to like the one big grocery

00:04:52   store in town and they would have all

00:04:53   the pumpkin spice varieties and

00:04:54   everything and that was not even close

00:04:55   to true yeah we tried stop and shop and

00:04:57   we pretty much struck out there's like

00:04:59   two things there so Starbucks they're

00:05:00   putting these these stick on stickers

00:05:03   like these printed stickers on the cups

00:05:05   now instead of writing your name and

00:05:06   using the markers that's cuz ours is a

00:05:08   drive-through and these eggs really

00:05:09   poorly like once the cups start

00:05:11   condensing these stickers just look

00:05:12   horrible it's because ours is a

00:05:14   drive-through all right this doesn't

00:05:15   taste much different than yours just

00:05:17   cold so I'm drinking a cold milkshake

00:05:21   thing but I don't I don't taste much

00:05:22   pumpkin or much spice the so the pumpkin

00:05:24   spice Frappuccino I would say has the

00:05:27   best flavor of all the Starbucks drinks

00:05:29   and actually still tastes a little bit

00:05:31   like coffee whoo yeah the pumpkin spice

00:05:34   Frappuccino is the tastiest set of the

00:05:35   out of the bunch the ice the ice pumpkin

00:05:38   spray or the ice pumpkin spice latte is

00:05:40   almost as good as the Frappuccino it

00:05:42   tastes like it might be even the same

00:05:43   like the same liquid that they're using

00:05:45   it's almost as good it also tastes more

00:05:47   like coffee than the hot drink the hot

00:05:48   the hot drink I think it just does not

00:05:50   have enough coffee flavor maybe if you

00:05:52   if you're gonna put an extra shot in it

00:05:53   that might improve it but well this

00:05:55   doesn't really have any coffee in it

00:05:56   it's just coffee syrup oh I'm only

00:05:58   tasting syrup but it's still good okay

00:06:00   we also in addition to the Starbucks

00:06:02   ones we have this we have a couple

00:06:05   different cold brew options that we

00:06:06   should taste and then rank all of these

00:06:09   and see if yes so this is we have this

00:06:11   calathea farms almond milk cold brew

00:06:15   coffee combo they they sell these

00:06:17   normally like without pumpkin spice but

00:06:19   we found them is what the pumpkin spice

00:06:21   latte variety of this so let's give it a

00:06:24   try I also found what's that one this is

00:06:26   the la colombe a la colombe a pumpkin

00:06:33   spice draft latte and it has like this

00:06:35   plastic ring it sits in a can it says do

00:06:39   not shake hold on

00:06:40   shake did you shake did you shake this

00:06:42   okay yours you think this you shake

00:06:47   yours and I'm not shaking mine wasn't

00:06:52   that this tastes terrible maybe I should

00:06:56   have shaked it shaken

00:06:57   oh it has a sip through lid that's what

00:06:59   you put the plastic thing back on why no

00:07:03   I'm trying to but no people can sip

00:07:05   regular cans like now it doesn't fit

00:07:07   with the little tabby all right so the

00:07:09   the Calif EF Arms cold brew with almond

00:07:12   milk

00:07:12   pumpkin spice variety I would judge this

00:07:15   as terrible this tastes like garbage -

00:07:17   let me see that this this is just very

00:07:18   the the khalifa' khalifa' is just really

00:07:21   bland it's just like it's yeah yeah this

00:07:23   Calif ESF it's almond milk it just

00:07:26   tastes like spices yeah la Colombia is

00:07:28   terrible - this is awful it's just right

00:07:30   okay it just tastes like it tastes like

00:07:34   bad coffee with too much cinnamon added

00:07:37   and nothing else like there's no

00:07:38   balancing element for sweetness a little

00:07:40   more other spices I'm getting really

00:07:42   nervous for our this day did you expect

00:07:46   a lot of these to be delicious all right

00:07:48   we have Bailey's coffee creamer which

00:07:49   I'm going to drink directly from the

00:07:51   bottle the try yeah I mean I feel like

00:07:54   if we're going to try it that's kind of

00:07:55   dealing with we can say shake we do

00:07:57   shake already shake that one and then

00:07:59   I'm gonna go get the tea and the hot

00:08:01   chocolate and you have some kind of

00:08:04   dinner rolls in the oven right I have

00:08:07   much time to this

00:08:07   I have cinnamon rolls every time we're

00:08:09   going Alex Alexis going okay I had a cup

00:08:12   to pour things in but we're being

00:08:14   animals all right so that's the Bailey's

00:08:15   coffee creamer let me try that good huh

00:08:22   don't drink coffee creamer alone it

00:08:24   needs college did you drink I kind of

00:08:27   took a swig of it thinking it was cold

00:08:29   brew no don't do that no it's a it's

00:08:31   like concentrated sugar oh my gosh let

00:08:34   me wash this down with some chai there's

00:08:37   a smart it just it's really weirdly

00:08:39   sweet it's a weird variety what is this

00:08:41   water sugar cream I mean it has natural

00:08:44   ingredients it doesn't taste natural it

00:08:46   tastes really artificial right I'm gonna

00:08:47   go get our hot drinks and then we'll

00:08:50   move on to you pick something else okay

00:08:52   in the nut grouping we have the Blue

00:08:55   Diamond almonds I could use something

00:08:57   protein E mm-hmm after all that sugar

00:08:59   and caffeine it's not gonna help the

00:09:02   sugar aspect we have the Old Dominion

00:09:04   peanut company pumpkin spice butter

00:09:06   toffee peanuts and a pumpkin spice

00:09:09   peanut butter from peanut butter and

00:09:11   company says it's made with real

00:09:13   pumpkins did you read the real spice it

00:09:16   just tastes like peanut butter to me I

00:09:17   don't taste any pumpkin

00:09:19   it tastes like a pretty good peanut

00:09:20   butter oh wait and back in the back I'm

00:09:22   gonna dig in the middle maybe it's like

00:09:24   ice cream I get a very slight aftertaste

00:09:26   of cinnamon but that's about it

00:09:28   yeah sorry pumpkin spice peanut butter

00:09:30   there's not much going that's different

00:09:32   than regular B no sorry exactly all

00:09:34   right next up is the Blue Diamond

00:09:35   pumpkin spiced almonds wait we need some

00:09:38   water because nowadays peanut butter I

00:09:40   would say those are all right the

00:09:42   pumpkin flavor is a little that's

00:09:45   there's something there's a weird

00:09:47   element to it that you get a lot of the

00:09:49   aftertaste of it's hard to describe

00:09:50   whatever it is it's not working for me

00:09:53   and it's it tastes artificial at the end

00:09:55   right well what it is it's the Burnie

00:09:57   spices like the burning hot spicy spices

00:10:01   like that like an anise spice it's yeah

00:10:05   that's what you're finishing with and it

00:10:07   doesn't taste yes I'm kidding yeah

00:10:09   that's a weird spice blend on that one

00:10:11   there's there's some flavor in there

00:10:12   that doesn't belong yeah that's not good

00:10:14   either

00:10:14   oh we're not the Old Dominion butter

00:10:17   toffee pumpkin spice peanuts I'm

00:10:20   thinking this is gonna be easier to rank

00:10:22   than we thought because it's all kind of

00:10:25   terrible butter toffee pumpkin spice

00:10:34   peanuts they taste fine but they don't

00:10:37   taste like pumpkin spice at all nope

00:10:39   rejected oh I have to make oatmeal all

00:10:45   right and we also have to make it we

00:10:46   have to brew some hot chocolate and some

00:10:48   tea and I got the tea and some Starbucks

00:10:50   instant coffee you have a cup of hot

00:10:54   water we can we can put one of these

00:10:55   packets in oh my god this is wait how

00:10:58   big is this how much is that supposed to

00:10:59   make there's only four of them in here

00:11:02   this only makes four because it's not so

00:11:04   it's the Starbucks of via

00:11:06   instant latte it's the comes in the big

00:11:08   box I was expecting this to be like the

00:11:10   Starbucks via coffee packs which a box

00:11:13   like this would have like 20 of the men

00:11:15   probably but this they just has four of

00:11:17   these I guess it's a lot of powdered

00:11:18   milk in here what is it yeah dairy

00:11:20   powder sugar instant and micro ground

00:11:22   coffee so yeah it includes milk which is

00:11:25   why this is so much bigger okay I just

00:11:27   tried the hot chocolate from the hot

00:11:29   chocolate mix it just tastes like hot

00:11:31   chocolate

00:11:32   [Laughter]

00:11:34   yeah can you pass me the pumpkin spice

00:11:37   whipped cream we also have fall

00:11:40   favorites brand artificially flavored

00:11:43   pumpkin dairy whipped topping and this

00:11:44   he looks like pumpkin ready whip yeah

00:11:49   it's hard why is this so sharp it's to

00:11:54   stop the whip its kids

00:11:55   I can't just pinch it just get past it

00:11:58   over here there we go

00:12:00   you're right pinching apart I know your

00:12:04   hands squirt into your mouth like a real

00:12:06   person I'm putting in the hot chocolate

00:12:08   that is delicious and from into my mouth

00:12:11   but tastes very little like pumpkin

00:12:13   spice mmm it turns out sugar ready-whip

00:12:17   stuff is always pretty good it tastes

00:12:19   more caramel II yeah they taste it's

00:12:21   almost like a butterscotch oh man that's

00:12:23   good it's really good but it's not

00:12:24   pumpkin spice oh it's so bad for you oh

00:12:27   my gosh I'm pretty oh man you want

00:12:32   another squirt of this sucker yeah yeah

00:12:34   you do Wow we're definitely going to

00:12:42   take an after photo of us just

00:12:43   demolishing all of this stuff all right

00:12:50   next up since I'm going to things that

00:12:53   are right here that are even remotely

00:12:55   maybe protein II by the tea first

00:12:58   okay good teeth good I like the teeth I

00:13:00   would recommend a pumpkin spice tea it's

00:13:03   nice and light cuz you're just having

00:13:04   water it's very weakly flavored I mean

00:13:07   it's it's almost yeah I would say

00:13:08   there's almost nothing there there's way

00:13:09   more here than the hot chocolate so

00:13:11   that's speaking a lot about how horrible

00:13:12   the hot chocolate all right I'm gonna go

00:13:14   prepare the Starbucks via instant

00:13:16   pumpkin spice latte so we can try it

00:13:18   against the actual Starbuck from

00:13:20   spice latte and see how they compare

00:15:30   comm slash top-4 we would like to thank

00:15:32   blue apron for theirs

00:15:34   part of this show and for not adding

00:15:35   anything more to the list of things we

00:15:36   have to try for pumpkin spice today blue

00:15:38   apron a better way to cook okay we're

00:15:41   moving on to breakfast okay oatmeal so

00:15:44   you have oatmeal you have like a

00:15:46   cinnamon bun like a dinner roll kind of

00:15:47   cinnamon button

00:15:49   we have pop-tarts we have cream cheese

00:15:51   wait do we heat up the pop-tart is that

00:15:54   fair if we just taste it without heating

00:15:55   it up I would say yes because I would

00:15:57   bet most pop-tarts that are eaten in the

00:16:00   world are not heated we also have two

00:16:03   types of cereal oh my gosh how are you

00:16:06   this okay I don't know we have enough

00:16:09   time in one episode to actually try a

00:16:11   list all right so I'm opening up the

00:16:14   pop-tarts you have just made oatmeal

00:16:15   yeah a cinnamon roll cools down a little

00:16:20   bit I'm gonna try the donut from Dunkin

00:16:23   donut oh yeah

00:16:25   [Laughter]

00:16:27   again it doesn't taste like pumpkin

00:16:29   spice that much like I don't know why

00:16:31   you would wait and get excited to have

00:16:33   this separately it just tastes like a

00:16:35   glazed doughnut there's not there's like

00:16:37   there's nothing else to it there's no

00:16:38   pumpkin flavor at all all right we also

00:16:39   got a muffin from Dunkin Donuts which

00:16:41   I'm gonna try that too while you're

00:16:43   working on the muffin I'm going to start

00:16:44   the pop-tart there is a lot of false

00:16:47   advertising going on all over this place

00:16:49   there is nothing oh there's no muffin

00:16:52   crumbs all over your office floor sorry

00:16:55   oh my god the pop part does not taste

00:16:59   that different from other so it's it's a

00:17:01   it's an iced pop-tart and the middle is

00:17:03   slightly pumpkin colored and it has some

00:17:06   kind of like fall colored sprinkles on

00:17:08   top it just tastes like a sugar and

00:17:10   sugar and ice to filled pop-tart like it

00:17:12   he's like all the other pop-tarts that

00:17:13   look like that or the no pumpkin about

00:17:15   it all the pop-tarts that ever did pop

00:17:17   ohaf just come in and clean up my crumbs

00:17:19   here good boy yeah you're right but I

00:17:23   mean the pop-tart has a little bit of

00:17:24   pumpkin flavor really not much the

00:17:26   muffin has a little bit of pumpkin

00:17:28   flavor and a little bit of cinnamon

00:17:30   flavor but not the muff our Dunkin

00:17:34   Donuts total miss like everything Dunkin

00:17:37   Donuts has told us that his labelled

00:17:38   pumpkin spice flavor has tasted very

00:17:39   little or nothing like pumpkin sorry

00:17:41   Dunkin Donuts your alap tarts tasted

00:17:43   nothing like pumpkin right well how

00:17:46   about this this dinner roll

00:17:47   that you made from like cinnamon or

00:17:49   whatever it is like yeah yeah cinnamon

00:17:51   roll you should not have this for dinner

00:17:52   no one of those like you know instant

00:17:55   cinnamon rolls that we found in the

00:17:56   grocery store like that see in the

00:17:58   fridge section Patrick farmer what was

00:17:59   it was berry yeah yeah Pillsbury yeah

00:18:01   they kind of comes in a little cylinder

00:18:02   and you rip it apart and bake them it's

00:18:05   fine

00:18:05   I am so underwhelmed I get zero pumpkin

00:18:09   spice out of this nothing it just tastes

00:18:11   like a roll mm-hmm I mean maybe that's

00:18:13   maybe it's a wonderful branding trick

00:18:15   because cinnamon basically is the

00:18:17   pumpkin spice it's one of the components

00:18:19   like well we already have cinnamon rolls

00:18:21   why don't we just label them with an

00:18:23   orange label in the fall and we'll some

00:18:24   more of them I'm trying to this is a

00:18:26   mess which I made with milk because it's

00:18:29   the best way to make oatmeal and any

00:18:30   other way it's terrible man this just

00:18:33   tastes I'm so disappointed

00:18:36   here that tastes like actual pumpkin

00:18:39   goop like from the can like the

00:18:41   unsweetened pumpkin canned stuff yeah

00:18:45   this oatmeal is not good no yes I'm a

00:18:49   Quaker Oatmeal instant Quaker instant

00:18:50   oatmeal it does I will give them credit

00:18:52   it does taste different they're regular

00:18:55   like a lot of people are trying taste no

00:18:57   different than their regular

00:18:57   counterparts this does taste different

00:18:59   it's just worse oh you have a spoon over

00:19:04   there yeah let's get some yogurt well

00:19:06   first before we leave the breakfast

00:19:07   category I have Philadelphia Cream

00:19:10   Cheese pumpkin flip pumpkin spice flavor

00:19:12   to Philadelphia Cream Cheese

00:19:13   it's very orange cream cheese is fine

00:19:17   although I like the cream cheese yeah I

00:19:19   mean it tastes like cream cheese there's

00:19:21   there is a slight pumpkin spice flavor

00:19:23   there I'll give them credit it's a

00:19:24   slight flavor it's subtle I like the

00:19:27   cream cheese yeah I like it that's good

00:19:29   yeah it's not bad

00:19:30   it tastes you know it's a good cream

00:19:32   cheese if they're a good pile or is that

00:19:34   it it's a very small pile what before we

00:19:37   leave breakfast and we should eat this

00:19:41   yogurt so I could put it back in the

00:19:42   fridge oh yeah and with the cream cheese

00:19:44   and maybe the butter yeah that's all

00:19:46   right so we're in the dairy section now

00:19:47   we're just we're just gonna jump around

00:19:49   we're gonna section it up oh there's

00:19:51   some stuff in the gonna stir that one up

00:19:53   yeah here tell the people so this is new

00:19:55   sub-brand yogurt this is one of my

00:19:58   favorite yogurt brands if they're very

00:20:00   very sugary though it's the only

00:20:01   outside of new sub but their flavors are

00:20:04   excellent that's very good I like that a

00:20:06   lot

00:20:06   I'm actually gonna write that down with

00:20:08   the cream cheese but you know what okay

00:20:10   this just says pumpkin theirs is not

00:20:13   pumpkin spice is it disqualified it

00:20:15   certainly hurts it in the ranking yeah I

00:20:17   would say the new C yogurt is good I I

00:20:20   would not say that pumpkin and yogurt go

00:20:22   well together I don't think that's a

00:20:24   good combo like it doesn't taste bad

00:20:26   it's just weird it's it doesn't it

00:20:28   doesn't fit the cream cheese is one of

00:20:30   my favorite so far the the the generic

00:20:33   ready whip is amazing the the so before

00:20:37   we leave here you know here's a Danone

00:20:38   you have also have it right

00:20:40   no it's yeah it's cuz it's like so I

00:20:42   tried flavor yogurt I tried to get any

00:20:45   of the big yogurt brands so but I could

00:20:48   not find one from fy'y or from Chobani

00:20:51   shabari i don't how it's pronounced yeah

00:20:53   they should stay limited I think this is

00:20:57   the what's the brand is it Danone I

00:21:00   think is their greed Annan eCos

00:21:02   something it's their Greek yogurt week

00:21:05   oh so it goes something yeah that's

00:21:07   pretty bad yeah ooh

00:21:08   it gets worse the longer it in your

00:21:10   mouth well actually can we try that

00:21:11   again I think it's kind of it's maybe it

00:21:14   has the Thai iced tea effect coming back

00:21:17   yeah I think I like it now oh god I

00:21:20   hated it for the first days and now I

00:21:22   kind of like it I'm just kind of

00:21:24   thrilled that it has a flavor at all

00:21:25   yeah from some of these yeah it is it is

00:21:28   a more prominent flavor than about half

00:21:30   of what okay alright and before I forget

00:21:37   I do want to

00:21:39   since then made the Starbucks via

00:21:41   instant pumpkin spice latte I do want to

00:21:43   compare that against the real Starbucks

00:21:45   pumpkin spice lattes I have them

00:21:46   side-by-side and they're both still hot

00:21:48   so let me see the via I'll try that now

00:21:51   it's kind of it's it's a lot less sweet

00:21:54   than the real one

00:21:56   yeah less sweet and a very strong bitter

00:21:59   way terrible

00:22:00   all right now hearing I try that try the

00:22:02   real one again the real ones turning

00:22:04   orange it has like an orange oil slick

00:22:06   on the top of it I would say I think the

00:22:08   the Starbucks via instant pumpkin spice

00:22:11   latte I think is better than the real

00:22:13   one that we got I

00:22:15   agree it's it's more but the real one is

00:22:18   just too sweet the real one just tastes

00:22:19   like sweetened milk the instant one

00:22:22   actually tastes a little bit like coffee

00:22:24   and I would say and you know with

00:22:27   Starbucks it's always tricky because

00:22:28   it's so inconsistently you can have

00:22:30   different locations or different people

00:22:32   make the same drink two days in a row

00:22:34   and it's totally different from each

00:22:35   other you know so like the one I got in

00:22:37   the store today is just - it's just

00:22:40   sweet milk basically the one that in the

00:22:42   via instant packet is really pretty good

00:22:45   I wouldn't say it's amazing it's

00:22:47   probably not gonna make my top list and

00:22:48   let the rest of this stuff is are really

00:22:49   crappy which is possible but but overall

00:22:53   pretty good and yeah I would bring this

00:22:56   on a plane which is the best the best

00:22:58   freezing on a plane well the only thing

00:23:01   is it because it's like this giant tall

00:23:03   packet of dried milk powder along with

00:23:05   the coffee it needs a good deal of

00:23:07   stirring and a good deal of liquid

00:23:08   volume so maybe on a plane it wouldn't

00:23:10   actually the best deal alright let's

00:23:11   open up this butter okay we got to get

00:23:14   some of this dairy back in the fridge oh

00:23:16   my goodness it looks like peanut butter

00:23:20   oh that is not a Colorado to be pumpkin

00:23:24   pie spice butter spread a lot of words

00:23:27   it's not see this or this this has

00:23:29   pumpkin pie spice I wonder if that's

00:23:30   different see I'm also a little

00:23:35   concerned this has butter spread and of

00:23:36   just butter like typically with food the

00:23:39   more words you add the the weirder and

00:23:41   worse it is

00:23:42   oh it's limited batch let me see it has

00:23:46   a box top for education we can give us

00:23:47   to Adam oh my goodness this is weirdly

00:23:50   soft well it's been sitting out but it

00:23:54   has a pumpkin spice flavor to it if you

00:23:56   were looking for lots of pumpkin spice

00:23:58   flavor I can't not recommend you have

00:24:02   this but yeah I don't know what you

00:24:05   would use this for but as far as meeting

00:24:08   the criteria of being tasty and with a

00:24:12   strong flavor of pumpkin spice I think

00:24:14   this butter would be really good on like

00:24:16   cinnamon toast or not cinnamon toast the

00:24:20   like raisin bread or something yes oh

00:24:24   and he's delicious on raisin bread yeah

00:24:26   that's yeah so I guess I

00:24:29   so I bet I tasted it with the

00:24:30   Philadelphia Cream Cheese also they're

00:24:33   both really good I would give the slight

00:24:35   edge depending on what you're doing I

00:24:37   would give the slight edge I think to

00:24:38   the butter the butter has a stronger

00:24:39   pumpkin spice flavor but because it's

00:24:41   butter based it's like a little bit you

00:24:43   know saltier and fattier so I rather

00:24:45   spread this on toast then eat another

00:24:47   one of those cinnamon rolls oh

00:24:49   definitely by far yeah yeah they're

00:24:52   alright I couldn't definitely be with

00:24:53   you on that alright so so far if you are

00:24:55   doing your pumpkin spice themed shopping

00:24:58   for the year Land O'Lakes

00:25:01   pumpkin spice pumpkin pies pies butter

00:25:04   spread and Philadelphia Cream Cheese I'm

00:25:07   gonna spice cream cheese is um so far

00:25:09   recommended yeah I'm down those those

00:25:12   actually work I was so surprised I

00:25:14   really surprised so we also have these

00:25:18   Velveeta pumpkin spice like cracker

00:25:21   things though it's like a portable

00:25:23   packet of cookie cracker things these

00:25:26   are fungus by slavered and I figured we

00:25:28   can use these to dip into the pumpkin

00:25:29   spice caramel dip that we got a

00:25:31   Christmas tree chefs who actually the

00:25:32   butter might be good on that yeah you

00:25:34   can spread the butter you're supposed to

00:25:37   be dumping apples into that oh well we

00:25:39   don't have any apples wait we have a

00:25:40   whole bowl of apples that has no pumpkin

00:25:42   flavor whatsoever no I just say it's

00:25:45   like a dry biscuit yeah well when we

00:25:46   don't get in some pumpkin things all

00:25:48   right let's let me try this let's try

00:25:49   the caramel pumpkin pumpkin spice

00:25:52   caramel dip for apples another from the

00:25:56   well-known brand Concord foods it's if

00:26:00   it just tastes like caramel as that's

00:26:02   what I'm expecting there's a little bit

00:26:04   of flavor to it there's like a small

00:26:05   amount of like on the aftertaste so

00:26:09   while I'm coming spicy flavor but it's

00:26:10   not very good but I don't want to dip

00:26:12   anything in this anyway yeah it doesn't

00:26:14   I mean caramel dip is a weird product

00:26:16   why do you need to add caramel dip

00:26:19   caramel caramel whatever caramel what do

00:26:21   you need to add this to fruit like

00:26:23   fruits already really sugary yeah it's

00:26:25   like you take the take like nature's

00:26:27   candy

00:26:27   and add some candy dip it in some more

00:26:30   concentrated sugary to really juice

00:26:32   yourself up just close that up let's

00:26:33   open up the cereals and get away from

00:26:35   this breakfast yeah we're still in the

00:26:38   preference category you

00:26:40   because we still have oh my gosh alright

00:26:42   so you have the natural birth and you

00:26:43   have the puffins and I have the pumpkin

00:26:46   spice Cheerios this is made with real

00:26:48   pumpkin limited batch puffs in cereal

00:26:50   we should really make a bull this and

00:26:52   pour milk over it but I'm not gonna do

00:26:54   that again another pumpkin spice they

00:26:56   have does not taste pumpkin II at all

00:26:59   it's so subtle

00:27:00   it's almost indistinguishable between

00:27:03   roe flavored things like just regular

00:27:06   cinnamon flavored something what you got

00:27:09   yeah so Cheerios they claim it's made

00:27:10   from real pumpkin puree and a delicious

00:27:12   blend of cinnamon nutmeg and clove to me

00:27:14   it just it tastes almost exactly like

00:27:17   honey nut cheerios so yeah like if you

00:27:25   put those Cheerios you know they would

00:27:28   look different but I think they would

00:27:29   taste different they might have like a

00:27:31   little bit more of a cinnamon bit to

00:27:33   them but oh no in the back a little bit

00:27:38   I bet you it will make the milk

00:27:39   flavorful maybe did these puffins are

00:27:42   really bad these are awful close up so

00:27:46   far they're not making the short list

00:27:48   either

00:27:48   alright so the breakfast grouping mostly

00:27:51   was a failure with a few surprised

00:27:53   standouts the the the butter and the

00:27:55   cream cheese really did pretty well and

00:27:58   and the Starbucks via instant pumpkin

00:28:00   spice latte actually did surprisingly

00:28:02   well also all right should we move on to

00:28:04   like chocolates and snack cakes and

00:28:06   cookies sure okay well I have for us

00:28:10   open up a Little Debbie roll here

00:28:12   pumpkin spice Little Debbie roll it is

00:28:15   kind of like a cake roll with some white

00:28:17   cream filling and some white hard melted

00:28:23   ice an icing yeah it like pulled up on

00:28:26   the bottom that's always a good sign

00:28:29   it's like some kind of like spiral roll

00:28:31   right or is it just cream in the middle

00:28:34   of a round cake it's like a yodel

00:28:35   without chocolate on top okay I mean for

00:28:38   those garbage kind of snack cakes in a

00:28:39   box it's fine it's very sugary it's very

00:28:44   bland and very little pumpkin yeah I

00:28:48   would say it tastes like pretty much

00:28:49   every one of those things like any kind

00:28:51   of like little Debbie's snack cake roll

00:28:53   but in some plastic that you get at a

00:28:55   gas station like it tastes like alright

00:28:57   we have a pumpkin spice Twinkie official

00:29:01   hostess brand pumpkin spice Twinkies I

00:29:04   stopped making Twinkies no someone

00:29:07   bought the factory and brought them back

00:29:09   I who knows they also make razors okay

00:29:13   so basically the cake doesn't seem to be

00:29:15   pumpkin flavored but the cream inside is

00:29:17   a different color with a little like

00:29:18   some brown flecks so I should just claim

00:29:22   you have it your beard god I should

00:29:25   disclaim I have not had a regular

00:29:27   Twinkie in a very long time so it's hard

00:29:29   for me to compare however it doesn't

00:29:31   seem different

00:29:33   and now the regular cream is like white

00:29:34   bright white I know that and it's

00:29:36   probably sweeter this has more flavor

00:29:37   than a regular Twinkie because regular

00:29:38   Twinkies taste like just nothingness I'm

00:29:42   sorry they taste like Twinkies well

00:29:44   right but but err and sugar this tastes

00:29:47   like a pumpkin spice Twinkie it does it

00:29:51   just tastes like a pumpkin spice Twinkie

00:29:53   I can't fault it for it isn't falsely

00:29:56   advertised yeah I wouldn't say it's it

00:29:58   wasn't unpleasant at all it was just no

00:30:00   I wouldn't I wouldn't want one during

00:30:02   pumpkin spike season I wouldn't be like

00:30:04   oh yeah we gotta go run out and get

00:30:05   those Twinkies man like people do with

00:30:07   the lattes and stuff but like if you

00:30:10   were already shopping for Twinkies you

00:30:12   would probably choose this though yeah

00:30:14   if I was shopping for Twinkies I would

00:30:16   be like yeah I'll take a novelty Twinkie

00:30:17   oh I'll go for that I feel you know it's

00:30:20   fall it's festive I I can it actually

00:30:22   taste like what it's promised unlike

00:30:24   some of these other things so yeah good

00:30:27   job Twinkie all right oh you got pass

00:30:32   them to me I can't move anymore

00:30:34   we're doing some back-to-back mulana

00:30:36   back-to-back Petrich farm action here

00:30:38   yes I have the pumpkin cheesecake

00:30:40   pepperidge farm cookies and I have the

00:30:43   Milano's which if you don't know what a

00:30:44   melon looks like after the storm bio

00:30:45   Malaya yeah they're really good alright

00:30:51   it's kind of has like a layer of orange

00:30:52   cream inside next to the chocolate these

00:30:56   taste pumpkins spicy they're very good I

00:30:58   like them alright I would say the Milano

00:31:00   is pretty good little pumpkin ooh nice

00:31:02   Milano action pretty decent I would not

00:31:06   say such nice things about

00:31:07   the beverage firm pumpkin cheesecake

00:31:09   cookies oh they taste so chemically like

00:31:12   yeah they're just chemical soft cookies

00:31:15   they do not taste like a good savory no

00:31:19   sweet balance it is just gummy like I

00:31:24   yeah like they're I tore off a small

00:31:25   chunk of a cookie and I would not like

00:31:27   any more than that no they're not that

00:31:29   I'd never want to eat any of those again

00:31:30   whereas the Milano's don't seem that

00:31:33   note that notable to me but they're not

00:31:35   bad they don't like they don't taste

00:31:36   horrible alright these are um what are

00:31:38   these called pirouettes yeah this is big

00:31:41   things that are filled with cream right

00:31:42   yeah yeah it says right on the top right

00:31:45   yeah purely no yeah whatever they're

00:31:47   alright you smoking spicy I like these

00:31:51   anyway I'm into these kind thing like

00:31:53   then wafer straw cookies with cream

00:31:56   inside mmm it's pretty good it's very

00:31:58   sweet the cream inside is very very

00:32:00   sugary but the thing is like you know

00:32:02   that form like the pirouette or whatever

00:32:04   it's called form it's pretty hard to go

00:32:06   wrong with that and that is pretty good

00:32:08   and I give them to give them credit

00:32:09   it does have good pumpkin flavor mm-hmm

00:32:11   so now you have a pumpkin pizzelle

00:32:13   mm-hmm a little Italian flat cookies

00:32:16   with the nope nope nope what makes it

00:32:22   not good is it barely taste like

00:32:23   anything and when it does taste like

00:32:24   something it tastes terrible

00:32:26   Oh like I can't even describe it just um

00:32:28   cinnamon cardboard yeah but but like

00:32:32   that like when you open up a can of

00:32:35   pumpkin like a canned pumpkin it smells

00:32:38   kind of bad or if you open up an actual

00:32:40   pumpkin it smells kind of bad it tastes

00:32:42   like that it tastes like the bad smell

00:32:44   it's like they just kind of opened some

00:32:46   pumpkins and wafted some puzzles into

00:32:50   them and what you got look alright so

00:32:54   next up we're gonna go with one of the

00:32:56   surprises of this episode I think is the

00:32:59   pumpkin spice latte flavored peeps those

00:33:03   wonderful marshmallow chicks that we get

00:33:05   at Easter the official peeps brand has

00:33:08   pumpkin spice latte flavored peeps

00:33:10   delight did they look like death dipped

00:33:12   in decadent white fudge the packet and

00:33:14   and we we looked at the store here and

00:33:17   they had lots of these and they all look

00:33:20   like these flat

00:33:21   custom things like we'll take a picture

00:33:23   it's like they deflated so they're

00:33:25   they're low they're kind of wrinkly

00:33:27   they're they're not like the Cryptkeeper

00:33:29   and every single one in the store look

00:33:32   like this

00:33:32   they're basically undead peeps that's

00:33:34   what they look like all right so the

00:33:37   white fudge like raft that it's sitting

00:33:39   in is by far the dominant flavor it's

00:33:43   just like to eating white chocolate the

00:33:44   actual peep itself it's hard to tell

00:33:46   what it tastes like but I don't think

00:33:47   it's good and you just spit yours out so

00:33:51   that's probably an indicator that you

00:33:52   agree

00:33:53   oh the aftertaste is pretty poor too

00:33:56   it's like weird like chemical ooh that's

00:34:00   not yeah let me get some water oh it's

00:34:02   really good this packaged stuff

00:34:04   why does people why do we buy this oh

00:34:06   he's going for the no-strike Frappuccino

00:34:09   I'm gonna open up the marshmallows the

00:34:11   campfire campfire brand pumpkin spice

00:34:14   marshmallows shaped like pumpkins nice

00:34:17   touch it's a little sticky and a little

00:34:20   stinky actually they're all stuck

00:34:25   together and you're like do you hit like

00:34:27   peel it apart it's supposed to be

00:34:30   something to like I don't know fix a

00:34:31   hole in your house yeah great stuff foam

00:34:34   yeah that's real putty you're gonna

00:34:37   insulate your walls oh please don't

00:34:41   vomit in my office yeah

00:34:44   there's very little that's good here

00:34:46   yeah that marshmallow it's just like oh

00:34:49   it's just like dry and cheap and bland

00:34:53   and doesn't it's not even sweet like

00:34:55   everything you like about a marshmallow

00:34:56   that doesn't have like the it's lacking

00:34:59   in all the marshmallow attributes I'm

00:35:01   trying the Entenmann's Poppins because

00:35:02   at least we know well you have to

00:35:06   compare those against the Dunkin Donuts

00:35:07   many things no I'm not eating that

00:35:09   Dunkin Donuts thing again these are good

00:35:12   but they just taste like Entenmann's

00:35:13   donut hole things they're not very

00:35:16   pumpkin spicy yeah oh the Entenmann's

00:35:18   Poppins are delicious but they're always

00:35:20   delicious like every flavor of

00:35:22   Entenmann's pop pop um donut holes is

00:35:24   delicious and that tastes like they're

00:35:26   regular glazed ones it does not taste

00:35:28   any any different so I agree all right

00:35:30   we're running finally running out of

00:35:31   stuff

00:35:33   got some chocolates to eat and some of

00:35:35   these wafers if you've you know seen any

00:35:37   of these like old-people wafer cookies

00:35:40   do we even have to try I love these

00:35:43   things normally they taste like

00:35:45   cardboard and I like them let me have a

00:35:48   cardboard wafer it's making me think it

00:35:50   does taste pumpkiny okay yeah but no no

00:35:55   it's going to a bad place

00:35:57   it started off with nothing and then it

00:36:01   slowly faded into a nice Pleasant

00:36:05   pumpkin spice flavor and then turned

00:36:07   into a pretty much just a just a sad

00:36:12   sugary hellscape here I don't want that

00:36:15   it's fine just try it oh my goodness

00:36:18   what do we have left we have the

00:36:20   chocolate ice cream and liquor groups I

00:36:22   have a here won't you pronounce that

00:36:25   first the gear our gear our deli squares

00:36:29   and the base pumpkin spiced caramel milk

00:36:32   chocolate square we're putting that up

00:36:33   against the ND lint Lindor truffle the

00:36:37   ghirardelli square is really good it has

00:36:40   really nice pumpkin flavor the truffle

00:36:44   doesn't have much more than a truffle

00:36:46   flavor at so I always have problems with

00:36:47   those truffles they just taste like one

00:36:49   thing I could probably never tell the

00:36:52   different variety between the two I

00:36:53   disagree I do think that I do think the

00:36:56   Lindor truffle has good pumpkin flavor

00:36:58   but I think the Ghirardelli Square is

00:37:00   significantly nicer your deli where is

00:37:03   good yeah that's a really good showing

00:37:06   no that is gonna be my top for sure I

00:37:08   don't write that down that's a very good

00:37:11   no I think the liquor but no get the ice

00:37:15   cream out of the freezer go go go run

00:37:17   run run you know where it is you get it

00:37:19   all it goes down crickets honey two tiny

00:37:22   cups of ice so we okay we looked at the

00:37:25   liquor store has this little like

00:37:26   airplane sized bottles of both that

00:37:28   Bailey's pumpkin spice and the capital

00:37:30   Morgan Jaco blast pumpkin spice rum I've

00:37:33   opened up the liquor you got the ice

00:37:34   cream I'm gonna try the Bailey's pumpkin

00:37:36   spice rum or whatever this is Bailey's

00:37:38   limited edition

00:37:39   what is the alcohol in Bailey's I don't

00:37:42   even know I'm trying it I find the

00:37:45   Bailey's pretty awful

00:37:47   and I'm really glad I didn't buy a big

00:37:49   bottle of that mm-hmm yeah it just

00:37:53   tastes like the spices yeah it's not

00:37:55   like like real ease and I don't like

00:37:58   spiced cider

00:37:59   I like regular cider I don't like it

00:38:01   when it's now I'm gonna try the cap okay

00:38:07   I think this will be good after

00:38:08   Thanksgiving I don't think so

00:38:11   like you know like late after

00:38:12   Thanksgiving is have a little it's too

00:38:14   heavy

00:38:15   all right now I'm gonna go to captain

00:38:16   Morgan's Jack Oblast pumpkin spiced rum

00:38:19   Oh drinking that well it makes the

00:38:23   Bailey's look pretty good by comparison

00:38:24   oh so the big bottle of this was a big

00:38:28   pumpkin or a little pumpkin

00:38:31   um wet and those those are both pretty

00:38:32   pretty berry I'm gonna smell it first

00:38:34   because what the heck there are very few

00:38:39   things here that I would like more of it

00:38:40   smells like rubbing alcohol it tastes

00:38:43   not that different from alcohol

00:38:44   next I've never tasted rubbing alcohol I

00:38:46   don't really know that but oh so captain

00:38:53   captain Morgan's not a positive review

00:38:56   you've steered us wrong so so wrong

00:38:58   let's wash that down with some ice cream

00:39:00   let's do some day drinking like these

00:39:02   are these are so not good I don't even

00:39:04   want to enjoy some day drinking with

00:39:06   them it's just unpleasant

00:39:07   the captain is so strange are you

00:39:10   actually liking it no I'm not liking it

00:39:12   I'm trying to figure out a way to

00:39:14   describe it I think the best way I can

00:39:17   describe the captain Morgan's thing is

00:39:20   don't just don't don't bother um get

00:39:24   real alcohol if you want a drink

00:39:25   don't don't bother with that I mean it

00:39:28   is spiced rum with pumpkin spice flavor

00:39:30   so it delivered what it promised yeah

00:39:33   it's exactly what it is it's captain

00:39:36   what pumpkin spice so I'm having a hard

00:39:38   time making fun of it because they

00:39:41   should have made it a rum cream but they

00:39:43   didn't it's it's a non cream rum and and

00:39:46   now and it suffers as a result all right

00:39:48   let's try this ice cream all right I

00:39:50   think this episode might be my undoing

00:39:53   with the eating yeah I can't handle this

00:39:57   is much well because there's so much

00:40:00   different

00:40:00   this is all different stuff it's not

00:40:01   we're not overloading on like you know

00:40:03   seventeen ice creams alright this is the

00:40:04   pumpkin cheesecake Ben and Jerry's ice

00:40:06   cream limited-edition

00:40:07   I had to order this mmm the graham

00:40:09   cracker swirl oh that's good mm-hmm yep

00:40:13   Jerry's nailed it Ben and Jerry's did

00:40:15   nail it what a surprise right the whole

00:40:20   thing no just oh why do you would even

00:40:21   think about that at this point taking

00:40:23   small bites of everything right and we

00:40:25   have Edie's pumpkin spice latte ice

00:40:26   cream which halfway melted in our car

00:40:29   that was our fault it tastes like a

00:40:31   French silk kind of ice cream with a

00:40:34   vague pumpkiny flavor hands-down ben

00:40:37   jerry's wins this batch oh man yeah this

00:40:40   battle between the ice creams definitely

00:40:43   benefits yeah it's not even close this

00:40:45   is this tastes fine it does not taste

00:40:47   anything pumpkin spice she's fine

00:40:49   it takes a little bit like pumpkin spice

00:40:50   but nothing like the flavor blast that

00:40:52   you get from Ben & Jerry's yeah very

00:40:54   good oh my gosh we have wreaked havoc

00:40:56   there are so many torn open boxes God

00:41:00   have we any Winkies there's okay the

00:41:03   things that we didn't try which I don't

00:41:04   even think I want to try cuz doesn't you

00:41:06   there's some pumpkin butter and there's

00:41:08   a couple pumpkin candies there's the

00:41:12   caramel but I honestly I don't even

00:41:15   think I can stomach eating that I'm

00:41:16   gonna just try the butter real quick not

00:41:18   to be confused with the butter spread

00:41:20   yes this is just like apple butter

00:41:22   butter I'm not entirely clear on what

00:41:24   that means like it's really slow cooked

00:41:26   I can't open this that maybe try and

00:41:29   tell you something yeah it says don't

00:41:30   eat this it's doing you a favor alright

00:41:32   I can't I can't open it

00:41:34   yeah pumpkin butter it's it looks like

00:41:37   it's apple butter so it's just like slow

00:41:39   slow cooked pumpkins we should ask Joel

00:41:40   ask him about his family always makes

00:41:42   apple butter but there is some gourmet

00:41:44   pumpkin butter spread in here but I

00:41:46   honestly don't think it's going to make

00:41:47   the cut I'm gonna judge it because I

00:41:50   can't open the jar and I also don't feel

00:41:52   good um which I'm ranking after

00:41:54   will definitely do our ranking tonight

00:41:56   we have to take a break because I need

00:41:58   to let all of this settle in my stomach

00:41:59   and I need to wash my hands with some

00:42:01   nice pumpkin soap that we found spiced

00:42:03   hand soap yes we're gonna go wash our

00:42:05   hands let this settle think about it

00:42:07   maybe to retry some things and come back

00:42:09   with the rankings in a little bit all

00:42:11   right

00:42:14   where we last left our fools we still

00:42:21   have a few things left to try we ate for

00:42:23   an hour in the last session and again it

00:42:27   wasn't eating the whole thing it was

00:42:28   still tasting but oh my gosh I felt

00:42:32   horrible I just I felt like a horrible

00:42:36   sniffing cake I lay down the couch and I

00:42:38   slept for like an hour

00:42:39   it was likely in the kitchen hey I

00:42:43   cleaned up you slept first and then I

00:42:46   cleaned up or did you play farming

00:42:48   I played farming yeah you slept anyway

00:42:52   yeah so it it turns out we got way too

00:42:55   much stuff and we still I still I went

00:42:57   shopping again today just for other

00:42:59   stuff and I still was unable to find the

00:43:01   pumpkin spice Oreos yeah but yeah that

00:43:05   seems to be the only thing that was

00:43:07   really on our list that we couldn't get

00:43:08   and we did not get to the beers that we

00:43:12   had so we're going to be testing those

00:43:14   and a few other things we have a kind

00:43:16   bar we have some pumpkin butter if we

00:43:19   can manage to open it we got some

00:43:20   pretzels covered in pumpkin spice yogurt

00:43:24   some caramels a taffy right yeah we

00:43:28   might give the alcohols another shot now

00:43:30   that they are cold okay so I already

00:43:34   have some opinions irie tasted this

00:43:35   morning I managed to rally Emmy to watch

00:43:38   some other things into my mouth that I

00:43:40   didn't think I would ever be able to eat

00:43:41   again yeah I also found I found a lot of

00:43:46   good things I think what we we have

00:43:47   found so far is that the makeup brand

00:43:51   stuff is actually pretty decent yeah and

00:43:54   it's all this no-name garbage that is

00:43:56   really Ferring the worst which kind of

00:43:58   makes sense that's probably true of most

00:43:59   things like let's get started with you

00:44:02   want to start with the the beers and

00:44:04   then we'll go to the foods afterwards

00:44:05   beer me Marco selecting beers for this

00:44:08   was actually very challenging because

00:44:09   there's a billion pumpkin beers now so

00:44:11   what I did was I picked the two that I

00:44:14   thought were for major brands and that

00:44:16   seemed to be very popular

00:44:18   and I even asked the guy at the store

00:44:20   the beer guy at the store like you know

00:44:22   what is the best selling one of these

00:44:24   and his answer by far the best selling

00:44:27   one for them is the southern tier

00:44:28   honking Imperial ale I don't know if

00:44:32   this is available nationwide or

00:44:33   worldwide probably not but here in the

00:44:35   East Coast southern tier pom King is

00:44:38   basically the king of pumpkin beer and

00:44:40   then I the second one I got was what is

00:44:43   usually the one I go to because I like

00:44:44   the brewery so much it is the dogfish

00:44:46   Head pumpkin ale and they do this every

00:44:49   year around this time and it seems to be

00:44:52   also very well regarded so I'm going to

00:44:54   start with the southern tier the more

00:44:55   popular one

00:44:56   the pom Qing Imperial ale also noting I

00:44:59   don't like beer so we'll see how this

00:45:01   goes

00:45:02   all right that is a really strong

00:45:05   pumpkin flavor it doesn't taste syrupy

00:45:07   or artificial it is pretty heavy on the

00:45:10   spice really cuz all I'm tasting is beer

00:45:14   no give it a second in your mouth like I

00:45:16   did there's what second is there to give

00:45:19   the entire aftertaste is full of pumpkin

00:45:21   to me the entire aftertaste is full of

00:45:23   beer okay you don't like beer clearly so

00:45:25   I and we're just qualified for once I'm

00:45:29   finally disqualified from at four all

00:45:31   right I actually this is that my first

00:45:33   time having the the pom King I can judge

00:45:35   the label I can say if if you want tape

00:45:38   a lincoln beer that's a really good one

00:45:41   it's very pumpkiny it's very you know

00:45:44   like if you want subtlety it doesn't

00:45:47   have that but it's pretty solid all

00:45:50   right so now I'm gonna try the dogfish

00:45:51   Head pumpkin ale let me taste that one

00:45:54   see if it also tastes like beer yeah so

00:45:57   I guess I'm not surprised by this result

00:45:58   at all I like the dogfish Head better

00:46:00   but the pumpkin flavor is much more

00:46:02   subtle in it and this is typical of most

00:46:04   dogfish Head flavors it's a pretty

00:46:07   subtle flavor it's mostly a brown ale

00:46:09   that happens to be slightly pumpkiny if

00:46:13   you really want a dogfish Head brown ale

00:46:16   in October get that one if you really

00:46:19   want a pumpkin flavored beer and you

00:46:21   really want to be reminded that tastes

00:46:22   like pumpkin a little more strongly then

00:46:24   the southern tier pumpking is the one to

00:46:25   get these do not taste any different to

00:46:28   me they both taste like beer

00:46:31   but fair enough I would say I'm very

00:46:34   happy with both of them though but but

00:46:36   again the the dogfish head is so subtle

00:46:37   that I feel like if you really want

00:46:39   pumpkin flavor it might not be the one

00:46:41   for you if you want beer flavor they are

00:46:43   beer flavored beer flavored beer well to

00:46:46   be fair in the world of like you know

00:46:49   geeky hipster beer having beer that

00:46:52   actually tastes like beer is not a given

00:46:53   like you get the weird like you know

00:46:56   barley wines or sour beers or fruit

00:46:59   beers and they can get really weird all

00:47:01   right I'm gonna try the Bailey's again

00:47:03   Bailey's pumpkin spice yeah I don't hate

00:47:06   it today after all of the other pumpkin

00:47:09   spice stuff that we had so much of

00:47:10   yesterday I don't hate that now as much

00:47:13   as I hate it I didn't like it yesterday

00:47:15   and it's nice that's cold it is better

00:47:18   cold I don't hate it as much but I think

00:47:21   I still hate it let me tell you it again

00:47:23   I think I like it

00:47:25   the the aftertaste like the you know but

00:47:27   you get that like kind of like milk

00:47:28   mouth afterwards that is not that does

00:47:30   not play well with the pumpkin flavor I

00:47:32   think that kind of clashes with it and

00:47:33   it makes it a little bit weird on the

00:47:34   aftertaste all right I like this I like

00:47:37   it as a novelty I don't think I would

00:47:39   you crave it ever and be like oh I wish

00:47:42   it were pumpkin spice season so I could

00:47:43   have my pumpkin spice Bailey's yeah

00:47:45   that's not really how I feel I think the

00:47:48   good thing about the Bailey's too is

00:47:49   that it's salt in an airplane sized

00:47:50   bottle because I would not want to buy a

00:47:52   whole bottle of that like maybe it's a

00:47:55   have one drink of it would be

00:47:56   interesting but to buy a whole bottle of

00:47:59   it I think would be a tedious sick of it

00:48:00   I think pretty fast okay Captain Morgan

00:48:02   Jack Oblast definitely is a blast of

00:48:05   pumpkin flavor in rum it is exactly as

00:48:09   advertised yeah I just I find it

00:48:12   unpleasant and maybe I mean I don't

00:48:15   usually drink rum straight like usually

00:48:18   like I enjoy some drinks that are made

00:48:19   with rum I maybe I just don't like rum

00:48:22   enough to really enjoy this but I find

00:48:24   it pretty unpleasant I would much rather

00:48:26   have the Bailey's over this I think I'm

00:48:28   in a better mood today that I haven't

00:48:29   spent an hour eating pumpkin spice

00:48:31   things and now this is tasting pretty

00:48:34   good to me it's not terrible yeah I

00:48:37   would rather have the Bailey's and I

00:48:38   honestly I'd rather have either beer

00:48:39   than either of the liquors I'd rather

00:48:41   have both liquors combined than have

00:48:43   either beer

00:48:45   Wow that would be an interesting taste

00:48:48   it might I do it oh god I'm gonna open

00:48:51   them both and I'm gonna shot them from

00:48:53   little airplane bottles there we go

00:48:56   that works that works

00:49:00   it totally that's totally awesome I am

00:49:04   pouring one to the other and I'm

00:49:05   drinking this for the rest of the show

00:49:06   oh it's moving up oh god that's not good

00:49:11   Wow

00:49:13   you're not good man okay so let's move

00:49:15   on now that we're in a slightly better

00:49:17   minute I had a really good mood

00:49:19   oh you got you a little bottle are you

00:49:22   shaking to undo I am shaking my phone

00:49:24   yes dip it you look like a fool I do for

00:49:27   God's sake this is why nobody ever does

00:49:29   this I accidentally deleted my note for

00:49:31   this okay that's back Oh No

00:49:34   shake to undo does usually you know what

00:49:35   actually nothing bothers me now that I'm

00:49:37   drinking from this tiny bottle that's

00:49:40   good okay so let's open up the kind bar

00:49:44   next this is the limited edition kind

00:49:48   caramel almond pumpkin spice bar yeah

00:49:52   you know kind is that you know for

00:49:53   anyone who doesn't know it everyone

00:49:55   knows that these things are granola bars

00:49:56   lots of sugar

00:49:58   that's way better than either thing of

00:50:01   nuts that we tried yeah I would say it

00:50:03   if you like kind bars you know it's a

00:50:05   little bit little dry

00:50:06   it's not that sweet but if you like kind

00:50:11   bars you will like this the pumpkin

00:50:14   spice angle on it I think is fairly

00:50:16   subtle it's mostly just like a slightly

00:50:19   yogurty comedy bar I like it the pumpkin

00:50:22   brings the spices bring it down yeah I'd

00:50:25   like it to but it's it's not it's it's

00:50:27   done pretty subtle pretty subtly and

00:50:29   it's probably honestly probably a

00:50:31   benefit because they've had so many

00:50:33   things that were not done with subtlety

00:50:34   but but it's done with the right

00:50:36   subtlety like it has all of you I like

00:50:40   it yeah it tastes like pumpkin spice but

00:50:42   it's very subtle I'm writing it down

00:50:44   enough that it's gonna make the you know

00:50:46   top ish list yeah the kind Barbara's

00:50:47   good mm-hmm all right and then you want

00:50:50   to try these generic brand pumpkin

00:50:52   spiced yogurt pretzels I sure do

00:50:55   so I would say the the scent when I open

00:50:58   the bag and I got the whiff of the air

00:51:00   inside the bag

00:51:01   it smells like artificial like here oh

00:51:05   yeah food it smells like rubber or

00:51:08   something it smells like an animal made

00:51:13   of rubber it smells like a dog's toy

00:51:15   okay so for you go into a pet store and

00:51:18   you walk down the toy aisle it smells

00:51:20   like that you need to try these the look

00:51:30   on your face adequately convey is my

00:51:32   opinion of them which is what the hell

00:51:34   is in my mouth that is just there's

00:51:36   nothing good about that no not even a

00:51:40   little on the bag it says real good feel

00:51:42   good snacks no you know those folks down

00:51:45   with some dogfish Head I'm gonna wash it

00:51:47   down with my Bailey's my captain

00:51:50   Bailey's here oh my god that was really

00:51:52   okay it might be possible to do yogurt

00:51:55   covered pumpkin spiced pretzels well but

00:51:57   they didn't do it oh my gosh yeah that's

00:52:00   nope not have another one of those how

00:52:02   do you plan to open this jar of whatever

00:52:06   pumpkin butter is haha nice sound thanks

00:52:12   alright oh it's really liquidy I don't

00:52:15   think they're supposed to be that liquid

00:52:16   like oh it's you rate your sniffs

00:52:18   smelling it and making bad sounds I

00:52:20   maybe we shouldn't try it it just smells

00:52:22   like a can of pumpkin I don't I'm not

00:52:24   trying this okay good consistency I am

00:52:29   not trying it cool okay okay so we have

00:52:33   now as far as I really fried everything

00:52:35   right yeah hold on let me try this

00:52:37   Bailey's captain again try a little more

00:52:40   this pumpkin ooh

00:52:42   pumpkin is really really not subtle with

00:52:45   that pumpkin flavor I'm gonna call this

00:52:47   Morgan Bailey I think what I'm learning

00:52:51   here more is a Liam pumpkin

00:52:53   I don't like something flavor that much

00:52:55   like I think trying all this crap has

00:52:57   ruined something before me like I really

00:52:58   don't want pumpkin much of anything

00:53:00   anymore hmm I guess one question is

00:53:03   where we stand

00:53:04   yeah so alright what are some of the

00:53:07   ones take a minute to rank

00:53:09   I don't know if there's so much of

00:53:10   ranking as its top four oh yeah that's

00:53:14   right look we have to rank it okay let's

00:53:17   take a second play some pumpkin music

00:53:23   [Music]

00:53:26   for me our mention goes to both beers

00:53:30   because they're both great I would even

00:53:32   say the Bailey's because even though

00:53:35   it's a little too weird for me it is

00:53:37   pretty good

00:53:39   the Philadelphia pumpkin spice cream

00:53:41   cheese I would give honor mention too

00:53:43   because that was also pretty tasty the

00:53:45   only thing with and I also include the

00:53:47   Land O'Lakes pumpkin spice butter the

00:53:50   only thing with this we're but the cream

00:53:51   cheese and the butter is that I don't

00:53:54   think I would ever really used them like

00:53:55   it's a fun thing it's a fun idea to mix

00:53:57   those flavors into those things and the

00:53:58   result is actually pretty tasty if you

00:53:59   take a little sample bite of it but I

00:54:02   don't know what like am I gonna spread

00:54:03   that on toast or a bagel I don't know

00:54:05   like I don't think I would really ever

00:54:06   think to do that so I think that's the

00:54:08   kind of thing that I would buy and just

00:54:09   sit in the fridge for all for the whole

00:54:10   month and we throw it away like in the

00:54:12   next fridge clean out you know two

00:54:13   months later no I'm sorry that's kind of

00:54:15   a long term product right like you have

00:54:17   to use it multiple times in order to

00:54:20   make purchasing it worth it unlike

00:54:22   something like a starbucks Frappuccino

00:54:23   where it's like a one-time thing you buy

00:54:25   it you drink it is done yeah you'd have

00:54:27   to like spread pumpkin spice butter on

00:54:29   your toast every morning for the whole

00:54:32   month to me true so I don't know that's

00:54:36   why you're changing my mind I almost had

00:54:38   that as number one I really did because

00:54:40   it was the best pumpkin spice flavor

00:54:42   which one the butter or the crab butter

00:54:43   yeah it's really good and it's like the

00:54:45   cream cheese was really close second

00:54:47   behind it because they had the best yeah

00:54:50   pumpkin spice flavor like it was a solid

00:54:53   tasty pumpkin spice without being super

00:54:55   sweet which is I think what I liked we

00:54:58   had a hard time I really wanted to find

00:55:00   savory foods with a pumpkin spice flavor

00:55:03   but we came across so many sweet things

00:55:05   and I think that that that's a tricky

00:55:09   situation to enjoy yes something that

00:55:12   sweet a twit and to try and distinguish

00:55:15   it from other sweet things just because

00:55:17   it has pumpkin flavor yeah exactly

00:55:19   I would also give onra mention to the

00:55:21   Pepperidge Farm Milan

00:55:23   pumpkin spice variety and the Milano

00:55:25   cookies are you know it's a good

00:55:26   standard you know old-school cookie the

00:55:28   only thing is for me I didn't think the

00:55:29   flavor was very strong and so it's fine

00:55:32   it tasted good but any Milano tastes

00:55:34   good to me like I've never had one that

00:55:36   didn't taste good so it was fine but it

00:55:38   wasn't you know stellar or noteworthy to

00:55:40   me so that concludes my honorable

00:55:42   mentions do you want to do yours I'm

00:55:45   gonna say the the new say yogurt was

00:55:47   really good that Dan yeah that was two

00:55:50   different ones dan dan go sir no no not

00:55:53   the day Nomikos yeah new say yo Gert

00:55:55   okay

00:55:56   yeah the new and again like it that

00:55:58   wasn't a producer vice product so I

00:56:00   don't think I can actually say it as a

00:56:01   thing also honorable mention I think is

00:56:04   the Ben and Jerry's because again it's

00:56:06   not a pumpkin spice product it was a

00:56:08   pumpkin cheesecake

00:56:10   yeah but the Ben Jerry's that was

00:56:12   excellent they could have called it

00:56:14   pumpkin spice they might have just had a

00:56:15   naming situation there so hmm I might

00:56:19   want to move that up even if it's not

00:56:21   officials but because it had the pumpkin

00:56:23   spice flavors it just wasn't put on the

00:56:26   label that way because the cake it

00:56:29   tasted like pumpkin pie which is

00:56:30   essentially pumpkin spice right yes

00:56:33   because pumpkin spice is pumpkin with

00:56:35   like cinnamon cloves and some stuff and

00:56:37   I got some mulling spices and this one

00:56:39   just happened to be like cheesecake with

00:56:40   some graham in it and that was really

00:56:42   good so okay it's going to it's not in

00:56:44   my honorable mention to moving or in my

00:56:46   real list here I promoted my number four

00:56:48   is now Ben and Jerry's pumpkin whatever

00:56:51   they call it pumpkin cheesecake and my

00:56:53   previous number four is now in our

00:56:54   mentioned which was the Entenmann's

00:56:55   pumpkin spice pop-up donut holes that's

00:56:59   my that was my number four now it's on I

00:57:00   mentioned those are excellent and they

00:57:03   we've had this box sitting on our

00:57:04   counter all day and we keep going to me

00:57:05   in them the only reason I didn't rank

00:57:07   the intima they don't taste pumpkin

00:57:09   e-exactly they just they're good yeah

00:57:11   like Entenmann's donut holes are amazing

00:57:13   no matter what flavor they are and we

00:57:16   pitch them directly against the Dunkin

00:57:18   Donuts and the Dunkin Donuts were

00:57:19   garbage compared to the enter the Dunkin

00:57:21   Donuts were way more pumpkin spice

00:57:23   flavored but it was less pleasant or it

00:57:25   was more of a burnt pumpkin spice it was

00:57:27   bad it was they use too much of I think

00:57:29   too much cinnamon that it was a little

00:57:30   bit too bitter I think it was too much

00:57:31   clove

00:57:32   maybe yeah but yeah too much of the

00:57:34   bitter spices and the Dunkin Donuts ones

00:57:36   and it ended up being fairly unpleasant

00:57:38   whereas the Entenmann's are so sugary

00:57:40   because they're glazed that you don't

00:57:41   even taste any pumpkin but they're

00:57:42   they're better and like regardless of

00:57:44   pumpkin content you would rather have

00:57:46   more of the Entenmann's than the Dunkin

00:57:48   Donuts so that wasn't number four now

00:57:50   number four is the Ben and Jerry's ice

00:57:52   cream so what is your number four or our

00:57:55   mentions I've already done with the

00:57:56   other oh yeah a bunch is there that's

00:57:58   fine

00:57:59   okay I'm just so very confused about

00:58:02   what I'm still ranking I'm still going

00:58:05   through ok honorable mentions starbucks

00:58:06   Frappuccino pumpkin spice because I

00:58:08   really liked it but it was very very

00:58:09   sweet yeah and I don't think I would

00:58:12   ever get another one because I'm

00:58:14   generally trying to avoid that kind of

00:58:16   food in my life oh I will not get

00:58:19   another Frappuccino but in terms of

00:58:21   pumpkin spice it was good yeah so

00:58:23   honorable mention yeah that's fair I

00:58:25   agree I I actually found the Frappuccino

00:58:28   I think was one of my favorite things it

00:58:31   was is really good and that and I

00:58:32   actually did go back to it a few times

00:58:34   during the tasting just like to get a

00:58:35   little flavor of it cuz it was that good

00:58:37   alright my number 3 - number 4 right I

00:58:39   know that was my honorable mention oh

00:58:42   sorry have you done number for you I'm

00:58:44   having a problem well ok alright my

00:58:47   number four was the unbranded whipped

00:58:50   cream that was my number three the brand

00:58:56   name is fall favorites yeah all over it

00:59:01   that canister for a real brand name I

00:59:04   looked where it was distributed I found

00:59:06   none so my generic name like food

00:59:08   company it looks like I was basically

00:59:10   writing like a research paper on that

00:59:11   bottle because like I could not find it

00:59:13   they like the kind of brand that you'd

00:59:15   stick in a gift basket it's like just

00:59:16   like a random fake brand name it doesn't

00:59:18   mean anything I read it for so long you

00:59:22   know - really weird but yeah I couldn't

00:59:24   find any name brand but yeah the whipped

00:59:25   cream yeah it's any can like an aerosol

00:59:28   like the ones that you know yeah it's

00:59:30   it's from yeah it's like a generic ready

00:59:32   whip but flavored with pumpkin spice and

00:59:34   it's that was a good pumpkin spice

00:59:39   flavor as my number four alright what's

00:59:41   your number three alright my number

00:59:43   three the kind bar interesting okay I

00:59:48   respect that it was very good it

00:59:50   again I'm looking for a little bit more

00:59:53   of a savory side to pumpkin spice

00:59:55   instead of an overly sweet side so I'm

00:59:58   going to be tipping it to the kind

00:59:58   going to be tipping it to the kind

01:00:00   barré I really liked it I think it was

01:00:02   well-balanced and it had enough pumpkin

01:00:05   spice flavor to satisfy it was good and

01:00:07   it felt like it was a special thing

01:00:09   because if you do buy kind bars and you

01:00:11   have them in replace of a breakfast or

01:00:14   as a snack or something like that the

01:00:17   seasonal I guess delight of getting a

01:00:20   pumpkin spice one feels really good

01:00:23   alright my number two is the gear our

01:00:26   daily chocolate pumpkin spice caramel

01:00:29   squares those were really good I have

01:00:31   them on my list I'm not sure if they're

01:00:33   gonna make the top but they're at least

01:00:35   an honorable mention for me you still

01:00:37   don't know where yeah yeah I'm flying by

01:00:39   the seat of my pumpkin pants here I have

01:00:41   no idea yeah I know the Ghirardelli

01:00:44   buckets by squares were really good

01:00:46   that's another thing we're like you know

01:00:48   I think after this tasting most of this

01:00:50   stuff we're gonna try to give away to

01:00:52   friends and anything that nobody wants

01:00:53   we're probably gonna throw away but

01:00:54   there's a few things that that I intend

01:00:56   to keep and actually go through you know

01:00:58   and finish ourselves and I think that's

01:00:59   gonna be one of them they were just

01:01:01   really good yeah we're really good they

01:01:03   might actually can can they tie for

01:01:05   number three for me sure yeah you're

01:01:09   captain Bailey's or whatever it is and I

01:01:11   think it's however you want

01:01:12   it's my JPMorgan Chase I'll keep

01:01:14   drinking my - pumpkin beers at the same

01:01:15   time alright what's your number two my

01:01:20   number two is another tie because I

01:01:22   couldn't decide between the Ben &

01:01:24   Jerry's ice cream and the Starbucks chai

01:01:27   pomp c'n latte the chai pumpkin latte

01:01:30   the shy one yes be interesting I hated

01:01:32   that one

01:01:33   hi well I really like chai and I think

01:01:35   the element the added pumpkin whether it

01:01:37   was a sweetener that they put into it or

01:01:40   something I think it really brought it

01:01:41   together it wasn't just an assaulted

01:01:43   spice blend mm-hmm so I feel like that

01:01:45   pumpkin and chai go together really well

01:01:47   and it was a nice addition to that drink

01:01:51   and I like chives so that's my number

01:01:54   two and then on kind of a similar vein

01:01:56   to that but cold is the Ben and Jerry's

01:01:59   ice cream which was pumpkin cheesecake

01:02:02   and it's limited batch so that's why I

01:02:04   feel like I couldn't quite find a place

01:02:09   for the Ben and Jerry's all by itself

01:02:10   but it was really high up there because

01:02:13   it was so good

01:02:13   yeah I really hope they bring it back

01:02:15   every year cuz I could see us buying a

01:02:16   pint about every like every October

01:02:18   mm-hmm it was very tasty especially with

01:02:20   the gram swirls in it I think anything

01:02:23   with Graham swirls were really really

01:02:25   good at that

01:02:25   and it works too because one of the one

01:02:27   of the flavors in Graham is cinnamon

01:02:29   right this kind of it works with the

01:02:31   pumpkin that's why a lot of these things

01:02:33   I feel like are pretty balanced I mean

01:02:34   just like the kind bar right like the

01:02:36   nuts and the spices like that kind of

01:02:37   thing it all works together with a

01:02:39   pumpkin spice yeah exactly

01:02:40   all right my number one which is

01:02:44   probably it was a surprise to me my

01:02:47   number one is the Starbucks via instant

01:02:50   pumpkin spice latte pumpkin field

01:02:58   Lemkin patch whoo that's it that's it

01:03:02   so I really think the Starbucks pumpkin

01:03:05   spice latte in general really nails it

01:03:08   no follow the Starbucks pumpkin latte is

01:03:11   basically the Great Pumpkin yeah like I

01:03:13   there's a reason why I think that has

01:03:16   made everything else popular with

01:03:17   pumpkin spice because it's really good

01:03:20   it they they managed to you know combine

01:03:22   it with good flavors good sweetness and

01:03:25   bitterness from the coffee some chemical

01:03:27   addiction the result is really good and

01:03:30   if I had to rank if we if we were

01:03:32   redoing our Starbucks hot drink test

01:03:34   where we test all those dark hot drinks

01:03:36   if that was available that might make it

01:03:39   that might rank higher on my list than a

01:03:41   lot of the things that in that test but

01:03:43   it was the instant when we had to buy a

01:03:44   box of it at the register so here's

01:03:46   what's something you can like just have

01:03:48   made at a Starbucks exactly so here's

01:03:50   why the iced pumpkin spice latte was

01:03:54   very good that's probably if I had to

01:03:55   pick like a second place that that's not

01:03:57   my number two because I'm weird that

01:03:59   would be it and third place would be the

01:04:00   Frappuccino those are those were both

01:04:02   very good the only thing is the hot

01:04:05   drink that I got and I don't know if

01:04:07   they're normally made this way or not

01:04:08   but the hot drink I got as I'm as a

01:04:09   remark during the tasting what it was

01:04:12   just very very sweet you could barely

01:04:14   taste any coffee at all it was almost as

01:04:16   if they forgot to put the shot in but I

01:04:18   know there was some coffee in there but

01:04:19   it wasn't balanced enough and I and this

01:04:22   is often a problem with Starbucks hot

01:04:24   drinks they are not prepared

01:04:26   consistently so you might go

01:04:27   different day and it's totally different

01:04:28   or to a different location or have a

01:04:30   different person make it and it's

01:04:31   different the instant packet tasted very

01:04:35   very close to how to have the fresh ones

01:04:38   taste in terms of like freshness and

01:04:40   strength of flavors and everything but

01:04:42   it was better balanced it had a

01:04:44   appropriate coffee flavor it liked it

01:04:46   balanced out the sweetness with that

01:04:48   little bitter note of the coffee so it

01:04:50   was I assume the packet version is what

01:04:53   the regular one is supposed to taste

01:04:55   like but the one I got didn't taste like

01:04:57   that so the packet version is actually a

01:04:59   way to get a more consistent and a more

01:05:02   correct pumpkin spice latte not to

01:05:04   mention the benefit of you can do it

01:05:05   anywhere that was better than any of the

01:05:07   drinks that we got from Starbucks

01:05:08   yesterday but yeah that's the number one

01:05:10   Wow all right well I have an equally

01:05:13   shocking number one the beer No yes all

01:05:18   right

01:05:18   it is the Captain Morgan jackal blast

01:05:23   all right I have a very good reason it

01:05:26   doesn't have to be mixed with the

01:05:27   Bailey's to each or number one oh okay

01:05:30   it doesn't which is strange because what

01:05:32   I did the other day I was not a fan but

01:05:35   you didn't like but I tried it again

01:05:37   today and it kind of washed over me in a

01:05:42   warm pumpkin II enveloped you know a

01:05:44   little hug of alcohol which is super

01:05:47   nice I was thinking about all the other

01:05:49   products that we've just recently

01:05:51   consumed way too much of and generally

01:05:54   in my life and in our life we do not go

01:05:57   around eating tons of cookies and donuts

01:06:00   and whipped cream out of cans and

01:06:02   Starbucks lattes we try and eat fairly

01:06:07   simple and clean we have nice blue apron

01:06:10   dinners we have expensive stupid salads

01:06:12   for lunch

01:06:12   and we have eggs for breakfast a lot of

01:06:15   these products would never make it into

01:06:16   our shopping carts even on a non pumpkin

01:06:19   spice seasonal situation alcohol is a

01:06:23   different breed when it comes to

01:06:26   indulgences I feel like right now in the

01:06:29   fall it's kind of super fun to have a

01:06:31   really festive beverage that tastes like

01:06:34   pumpkin and you know what this really

01:06:37   really does and it's not heavy like the

01:06:40   Bailey's

01:06:41   I feel like a Bailey's drink is very

01:06:43   very kind of milky heavy it doesn't

01:06:48   scream yeah exactly it's very sweet it's

01:06:51   very heavy this is a cleaner alcohol

01:06:55   spiced flavor and because it's the

01:06:57   spiced rum again like a lot of the other

01:06:59   products it goes really well with the

01:07:00   pumpkin flavor so it's not like a

01:07:02   strange pumpkin flavoring inside of

01:07:06   something that wouldn't accept it and

01:07:07   they're just trying to shove it in there

01:07:08   it goes kind of great with the spiced

01:07:11   rum and it's very tasty and it's light

01:07:14   and it's festive and seasonal and it

01:07:19   makes me smile and it is something that

01:07:20   if I'm already indulging in something

01:07:23   special like a cocktail I would like to

01:07:26   have this stirred into go by the pumpkin

01:07:28   bottle yes you do need to go by the

01:07:30   pumpkin bottle it's the pumpkin blob

01:07:33   it's so cute

01:07:34   are you crazy surprised because I'm

01:07:36   crazy surprised I think you've had too

01:07:39   much captain Bailey's but it's a little

01:07:43   orange bottle and it has a little green

01:07:45   cap wow it makes me feel warm and happy

01:07:50   like you want to feel in front of a fire

01:07:53   on a nice fall day all right well let's

01:07:55   go do that instead of continuing to talk
