Identifying Hidden Ingredients Through Extreme Taste Testing

Discover how much of a shock ingredient you need to consume before you can successfully identify it in common foods. Learn the nuances of taste versus smell when challenging your palate.

Short Summary

  • Hosts played a game requiring identification of surprise ingredients mixed into oatmeal, cinnamon rolls, guacamole, and hot chocolate.
  • Participants struggled initially, often relying heavily on smell, which is estimated to be 80% of taste.
  • The hidden ingredients ranged widely, including White Vinegar, Liver, and ultimately, Fish Sauce and Ketchup.
  • Successful identification sometimes required consuming significantly escalated amounts (up to 8 teaspoons).

This episode challenges Rhett and Link to discern unknown additions in everyday dishes. The segments illustrate how our perception of flavor changes drastically as ingredient concentrations increase, forcing players to rely on core taste receptors when smelling is restricted.

Glad others think Link deserved the first round win on Fish Sauce. I think Stevie just wanted to see them eat the grosser ones.
