Oh, that is not a normal taste.

(lighthearted music)

Not bad, but it's not good.

I like it.

I'm just gonna drink it.

Wait, what's at the bottom?

Eww.

I don't like oyster.

Okay, oh my god.

I can definitely smell peanuts though.

It's actually not that bad,

like a liquid-ish peanut.

Peanut, that's peanut butter?

It's bad and good at the same time.

It tastes like nature.

Pickled walnut, isn't that from a tree?

It's really good.

[Woman] (laughing) Okay, use a spoon.

It tastes like tomatoes.

(mutters) okay.

My spoon fell in.

It's just like onions in a ball.

Are they onions?

Eww.

Oh my god.

I think that this is really good.

It's a little sour.

What is this?

I think that it's cranberry Jell-O.

Ugh, my god.

I'm not a fan of vegetables.

The outside is like, nothing.

(laughs)

It's in the form of Jell-O but it tastes like

vegetable broth or something.

I do not know what this is, yams.

I like yams.

The marshmallows are awesome.

I don't like it.

I taste cauliflower in it and it's a surprise.

Okay.

Oh, it tastes good.

I'm chewing on something.

What was that?

I love pistachio.

It's so good.

It's like so tempting to know what this tastes like.

I am getting so nervous right now.

Not as horrible as I thought it would be.

The flavor gets thick but then it like fades out.

What is this again?

Mm-mm.

What is that?

Why mayonnaise?

I think it's pretty good.

I don't like this.

I don't even know what this is, black rice.

Tastes like really sour mashed potatoes

with like sweet onions.

That is really good mashed potatoes.

Thank you but no thank you.

I like the combination of I think the kale and celery.

Oh god.

These like, look like burnt hot dogs.

That is so gross.

I'm not sure what the inside is.

It reminds me of a prune.

I don't even know what to call it.

It tastes like something really bad though.

Well it has the number one thing I hate, bacon.

Oh my god.

Aye, yai, yai.

I only try deviled eggs with like the yolk in the middle.

Beets, what are beets?

This better not ruin eggs for me.

Are we joking?

This is sweet.

Mm-mm.

Mm, delicious.
