The Ultimate trivia podcast. Welcome to the Ultimate trivia podcast. The show where knowledge is power and laughter is our only reward. I am your host, Andy. We have the whole crew in the studio tonight along with Pro Am. We're going to talk to her first. What's up Pro. Not too much. How's everybody doing? All good. You're ready to prove us wrong over and over and over again. My pleasure. Awesome. Very good. We got Kelly in the corner. Andy. Kelly, I got a question for you. I'm excited to hear this question. What is your leftover pizza? strategy. Oh. I got a couple. Let's have them. I mean, when I was younger, I used to just smash cold pizza. I just open the box and just smash cold pizza. Still an option, I assume. Yes, it's it's it happened it's happened recently. Um obviously you can go with microwave. but the the the favorite thing to do is just set the oven to preheat  uh for 350 bake and just set the pizzas in there, how many ever slices I want. And when the timer is off, they're basically done. Nice, nice crisp, not soggy, perfect. You ever utilize like a skillet or like a no, that Still top. Yeah, still top, yeah. No, I've never done that. Never. Nick, you've done it? Oh, yeah, of course. It's game changer. It does. It's it's it elevates. Better than the oven? Yeah. Uh, yeah, I think so cuz it it, you know, it's that immediate contact on the on the crust, so it really crisps it up. You throwing up you cover it with the lid, throw an ice cube in there and that's what adds that steam effect. Cuz the cuz the bottom gets gets nice and crispy. I try that. Nice work. All right, that was Nicholas by the way. I'll send you a video. Did you freeze ice cube of olive oil maybe? Oh man. Oh that my mind. Does olive oil freeze? There you go. Oh. Yes. Sure. I don't know. But anyway. Eventually. Nicholas. Hey. Hey buddy. What's uh give us a podcast or a two or three that are impactful to you right now. That you're paying attention to. That are impactful? None. Oh really? No. That's hasn't always been true. Okay, in your history. No's ever been impactful come to a podcast. I used to listen to like nutrition, you know, back when you gave. Yeah, maybe. Not really. Uh I would say I I still listen to again. There's uh I listen to the it's a local radio show, the Rodo show which they I listen as a podcast after they recorded it. They do a lot of trivia on there. They do. They do. They do. I may have taken a few ideas from them over the years. Nah, all original baby. I doubt it. Other than That? I mean, besides that there's this one small market one, the ultimate trivia podcast. I listen to that one at least once a week. Okay, good. I listen that one too. I don't know that Brian does. I've heard several. Brian still doesn't even subscribe. All right, Big B. What's going on? Ready for yours. I got one word. I just want you to run with it. Ready? All right. Salad. Oh, salad bar. Bar? Love a good salad bar. Okay. Yes. Salad come in many forms and we the word conjures up a chef salad or garden salad. You got fruit salad, you got potato salad. I definitely like one with some meat and cheese in it. Let's be honest. Come on. Yeah. But I do love a good salad bar, yeah. Yeah. Ruby Tuesdays, remember back in the back in the day? Oh, that was my wife and I went there every Friday for three years. you can make a salad bar seem unhealthy. Good job. Yeah, I drive. Oh, there's nothing healthy about a salad when I'm done with it. I. Yeah. Well ham in there, you know. Doc. Andy, I'm going to stop you right there. Nope. You can't stop this power, baby. What do you got? Well, I mean, I think the point of this whole exercise for the listeners to get to know us a little better. Absolutely. And if they want to get to know me a little better, then they should know that I in no way want to answer your question. Well, that's a gift. All right, is there a wrong way to load a dish wash? This is a loaded question, obviously. Yes. Yeah, there is. Definitely. Absolutely. What is one thing when you open it and you're like, this is all wrong. What's the first thing that comes to mind, you see it and then you're like, no, I got to read. You got to space out the silverware. Oh, that boy, nothing goes to the silverware. drawer for me. I mean my head doesn't go there, is what I'm saying. Oh, okay. Yeah, if they're all like bunched together towards the back or something, no, you got to face them out a little bit. Learning something new. There you go. Very good. All right. Well, thank you for that. You've heard from the crew here. We've got a question of the week before have Pro Am throw that at us. We'd love it. If you would send us some questions, there are tons of ways that you can reach out to us. Check the show notes, the website, the email, all of our individual Instagrams. We got proam.tup if you want to get things directly to Proam. Uh, people are writing episodes. Good times, you know, engage with us and uh, you know, who knows? You might get yourself a t-shirt code before it's all said and done. Who's getting theirselves a t-shirt code this week, Pro? This week, it is Jenny T. She emailed me at proam.tp@gmail.com. Cool. Yes. And she wants to know if you were forced to replace handshakes with another gesture, what would it be? That's easy. That's easy. That's easy. Okay. So Fist bumps don't count. I'm eliminating fist bumps. So the handshake there's nothing wrong with the handshake, don't get me wrong. But if you don't want to interact with people and if you replace the handshake with my idea, which is the headbutt. People are going to be, I mean, you don't have to bump into somebody in small talk if you really don't want to. I mean, they're going to want to earn it. Like, you know, I go to the grocery store here in town and a two-minute shopping spree takes 30 minutes because you run into 25 people you know, and it's great. It's fine. I hide. But there's there's you don't want to do that and headbutt thing was a thing, at least amongst men. instead of shaking hands, we just headbutted. you're going to wave from a distance. Nobody's going to stop and talk. nods from a distance. So mine mine is the headbutt. Okay. I got one too that I think that'll slow down a little bit of interactions. The kid play. Oh, it's nice. We're going to do the whole thing. You want to lengthen the green. I like that. Yeah. But I mean, I think that'll also turn people off like, I don't got time for that right now. I. I mean, once you get over the age of about 60, 65, you're not going to be saying hi to anybody. You know, I'm going to just lose, you know, crack a hip. is the goal, right? Is that the goal? Maybe. Next goal apparently. Yeah. I like it. There's one um one situation where you're allowed to slap another man's rear end. when you're telling them good game. Well if you scored a goal or hit a home run. Good job, good game, right? That You want to make that the constant? That's the norm. That becomes the norm. We're just smacking butts. Good butts. The more and more I question Andy, the more and more answers these questions. You know. My head originally went to the Bash Brothers  uh forearm smash, which is way more manly than the good game, but significantly. We're going to let you. Oh, I like the good game. That's good. You would. That's right. Well, if that triggered if that triggered anyone, just just to our HR department. What you got, dog. Um, I don't know. I'm thinking maybe like a bird call. Nick's about to give a spit take to Brian over here. Cuz like you're like Nick, if you're in the grocery store and you hear like the other like oh Oh man. is here. Only only she would do the West now. bird. That's funny. I have a buddy that I do that to every time. but Tbird. Every time every time I see him I go. Right. And he won't even know I'm anywhere he'll hear me do that. He's like you see his head looking around. Kelly? We're just a bunch of dumb animals, aren't we? we have our own call like everybody. That's what I'm saying. then you know. It's like a new it's like a ringtone. verbal ringtone. Right. And Kelly gives them randomly already. What do you got over Okay, right. I just want a simple head nod as I'm walking by somebody maybe a little Japanese bow, you know. Oh, I like that. Nice quick, you don't have to say hi. respect. BS. Hey, what's up man? Small talk. Yeah. Yeah. You got one Andy? Yeah, he wants to slap butts. Yeah, I'm good gaming, man. I thought you were joking. Yeah. Nope. I'm in. Get ready. I'm going to start implementing on Thursdays. Only good game of female friends. That's the 2. So that guy just all off. Headbutt him? Just headbutt him. We had a great. Yeah. I say thank you when he headbutt me. That's a wonderful greeting. if you need the kid and play though. that is super fun. Thank you Jenny for submitting that question. We got a t-shirt code coming. away from our merch store, Warrior logo where. that they are our sponsor of course and uh they got a a link in the show notes as well. So All right, we are ready for trivia, I do believe. Yeah. Topic tonight, gentlemen, it has been, I just had the number. Hold on, I'm gonna look it right back up. This is great radio. It has been 36 episodes since we have visited the food category. Wow, that's pretty Okay. How about that? No, I'm very excited. I'm happy about that. That's good for Nick, yeah. So, it's a broad topic though, and it is just simply the sweet tooth. How do we satisfy a sweet tooth? What's the initial reaction? that's my lesser of all food categories would be. Yeah, I don't. Sure. Yeah. But it's approachable, right? I mean if we were doing I guess it depends if we're making it or eating it. Uh there's a little touch of everything in this. It is a of just the general topic. When I think sweet tooth, I generally go towards cupcakes. Like like more dessert you're saying? Dessert then then candy, but I guess that's sweet tooth also is. Yeah. Candy be. Yeah. Orange juice. Sweet. Very much. Anything that could satisfy a sweet tooth. I wouldn't put it in that category, but I understand what you're saying. There you go. I don't never had the sweet tooth, I guess, really. No, never. More of a beer tooth. Oh, that's on. But you know. Got a new nickname. Long in the tooth. Beer tooth. Oh beer tooth over here. I like that. So, this one is about the sugary side of life, candy bars, carnival treats, elegant desserts, flaky pastries, frozen favorites, and even a drink or two. Some of these are everyday favorites and some are a little more refined, and a few come with facts that are oddly more layered than the desserts themselves. So settle in. Try not to get distracted thinking about the treats. and let's see who can find the sweet spot between knowing dessert and just devouring it. So clever, right? Yeah, you like that look? We know maybe we haven't done one in 30 something something episodes because last time we did we said, hey, next time we do a food or drink episode, we're going to bring in samples. Did you do that? That was literally the next thing I was going to address. Do you see any before you. No, I hide them. It could be like a fun thing. the truck. He's getting ready to surprise us. They're cooler in the truck right there. Yeah, he's got him out there. I wish. wish I would have had time and resources to put it all together. I mean we can pause right now and you can run the dollar store. We could, yeah. That is true we could. Wish we had like a producer to help out with stuff like that Andy. I don't know what she even do. Do you have another sister or somebody at home that you can bring in to help out with the show? not know the topic. Fair enough. Fair enough. Don't take Don't take that crap from the. Don't worry. All right. Any uh anybody got a prediction? I guess Nick cuz I don't know what I'm doing. Nick. Nick's not a a sweet guy. No. In spite of his prowess for food. Yeah how to make something I figure out he might Did he once explain better start. Yeah. Uh yeah, no, I I'm probably the favorite. I agree with that. I think. Didn't you once propose to have dessert before dinner? Yeah, well we talked about Thanksgiving. I I tried to explain, you know, get blood sugar up, you know, get that up early, your insulin and just keep it there. That way you don't have any falls. You want to keep it steady. Steady high. Do some cultures that do that? Do some cultures that do that? Diabetic culture does. Yeah. It's America. America. American. Okay, yeah. Well. All right, let's do it. It's time for the main event. Our 10 question trivia game on the sweet tooth. and I will be your host. Here's how it works. I'll read the questions aloud. The guys will write their answers on their whiteboards and when I say reveal, they have to show their answers. If they get it right, Nick's going to give them a point. Yep. And if they get it wrong, that is when the real fun begins. So let's see who ends up on top today. We do have a cheers beers. And this is a cool looking can by the way. do Ranger. A juice force IPA. Wow. Juice force. Juice force. Juice force. Prom, what do we have here? Thank you, Andrew. Tonight's by the crew around is from Nick from St. Louis. Oh, dope. Yeah, Nick, we appreciate you supporting the crew and the guys are toasting you with their voodoo Ranger juice force. Thanks Nick. Smells good actually. an IPA. All right, juice force on three. 1, two, three. Cheers. Cheers boys. I have to admit for an IPA, which I'm typically not a fan, that's pretty darn good. Not bad. I agree. Pretty taste. Good summer beer. All right, settle in gentlemen, grab your whiteboards. We have question number one. This ruby red syrup may look cherry, but traditional grenadine gets its flavor from the juice of what fruit. Oh for one. Not the standard opening layup. reading it again. question again. The ruby red syrup may look cherry, but traditionallydine gets its flavor from the juice of which fruit. Granadine is one we all know. If you're thinking about the most popular one you see at the bar, a brand called Rose, that is mostly processed high fruto corn syrup. So that would not qualify. Grana. comes from the concentrated juice of witch fruit, and it's not cherry. I took that. Yeah. Nick would have had my head if I had the word in there. Right. And it was the answer. It would have been awesome. If it was cherry. Oh. Cuz Cherry was in the question. That made me really mad. Scotty, you got an answer? I didn't see right. I do. Yeah, I do. Okay, everybody good? Yep. All right. Which fruit do we get grenadine, traditional grenadine from? Let's see the answer. We've got pomegranate from Nick and Scott, raspberry from Kelly, grapefruit from Brian. It's the pomegra. Well done. Heck yeah. Straight up a guess. me away when I learned that. I would have guessed. Really? Like I was trying to think of a bottle of it. And I I felt like there was maybe a fruit on the front, but I felt that I did not think pomegra. Not at all. No, that would have never crossed my mind, I don't think. It was between that and grapefruit. Oh, okay. literally had no idea, obviously. I was just trying to think of the most reddish colored fruit juice that there is. Yeah. And before if not the cherry, the cmegranate cuz, you know, usually strawberry juice is lighter in color. Definitely. Yeah, you guys, anybody enjoy a drink that has grenadine in it even if it's just cherry to a Coke kind of deal. No idea. No. No. I've had it before. It's sunrise. The old Shirley temples back in the day was. Nice. Yep. Well, traditional grenadine is made from pomegranate juice and its name comes from the French word grenade, meaning pomegranate. Although many modern commercial versions use artificial flavoring and coloring, the original syrup was tied directly to the fruit. It became a staple in sweet mixed drinks and non-alcoholic beverages because of its color, sweetness, and it does have a slight tartness. Can't say I've ever had it straight, you know. that tartness doesn't really come out. Yeah. All right. They're not all that hard, but most of them are. Oh wow. So let's let's move on to question number two. Before it became one of the world's most recognizable candy bars, what chocolate covered wafer treat was originally sold as Ron Tree's chocolate crisp. Before, it became one of the world's most recognizable candy bars. What chocolate covered wafer treat was originally sold as Rone Tree's chocolate crisp. got a couple of busy boards, but Doc is lost in the brain right now. Yeah. Just going through his his catalog of my candy bar catalog. It's gonna run upstairs real quick. Six six. All right. three or four are done. Doc, we're going to Yep. Put the put the screws to you a little here. Before it became one of the world's most recognizable candy bars, what chocolate covered wafer treat was originally sold as Ron Tree's chocolate crisp. Everybody ready? Let's see him. We got Kit Kat from Nick. We got a crunch bar from Scotty, Twix from Kelly, Kit Kat from Brian. The KitKats take it. Nice. Well done. The wafer. Was that what got it for you? That's the only thing that got. The wafer is the only reason I had it. I almost took that word out by just going to make it too. Does Twix have a wafer in it? I think it's a cookie. I think that's what they advertise, right? Yeah, cookie. The wafer is the only reason I can kick out. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Mitch Hedberg has a outstanding Kit Kat. You get less you get less candy bar. take the chocolate. The the. That is a good, yeah. He's he was so funny. Anybody's like uh top two or three candy bars or is it just one of those steady Eddie everybody likes? That's one of the three that I get most often. Is it? Yeah. Yeah. Very good. I wouldn't say top three but it's it's good. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Never disappoint. Nope. Kit Kat was introduced by the British ctionary company Rone Tree in the 1930s under the name Chocolate crisp. The product was later renamed Kit Kat Chocolate crisp and eventually just the Kit Kat. The bars combination of crisp wafer layers and chocolate coating helped it become one of the most widely wrecked recognized candy bars in the world. Give me a break. It stands alone. There's not really anything like it. No, that's a great point. I had no idea that was English. There's three other in the back. Good call. I thought I thought was American. It sounds like an American creation. No, I didn't I didn't that there was four like I'm only used to seeing like the the the. Halloween. Yeah. Yeah, I got you. Uh, in Japan, a little fun fact, KitKats became popular largely because it has a similar sound to the phrase good luck. In in that language. KitKat Japanese. There you go. There you go. All right, moving on to question Number three. What sweet carbonated soft drink is traditionally flavored with plant extracts such as sas, winter green or Sasparilla. We're in the soft drink category. What's sweet, carbonated? Okay, that changes the category a little. Soft drink is traditionally flavored with plant extracts such as safra, winter green or sasparilla. You know this, Nick? Uh I would go 99.9 on this one. Nice. Got to leave some room for air. No idea. It has to be this. Okay. I can't wait till he's wrong. Would that be great? That would be great. That would be great. It's always a good time. Nick cuz it's cuz you're such a sport about it. Yeah. I enjoy it. I play my role. Yeah, you do. All right. Kelly has got an answer or is he thinking? I got an answer. He got an answer. Very good. What sweet carbonated soft drink is traditionally flavored with plant extracts from the Sasopra, winter green or Sasparilla plants. Let's see the board. We got root beer from Nick, ginger rail from Scott. Cream soda from Kelly, Ginger Rail from Brian. It's the root beer. Nick is on fire, baby. Oh yeah. That's right. The original question, ironically, said the roots of Sassa. I would have you up for that. That would have lit you up. It would have been a fight. Mm. No, the context is headbutts. slightly different. Yeah. Uh, root beer fans. I am. Not. I I feel like it's real device. Just okay. Oh, you're you're in the middle on it. I mean no, I can drink it. But I'm not a fan. I wouldn't order it but someone gave it to me. I yeah, I'll I'm the same. it's in float form. That does not change it for you. Probably less. That's too sweet for me. St. Louis, there is a diner called Carl's Diner. legendary. C or a K? I believe it's a C. It's a great question. Okay. Uh they have it on tap and you they serve it like a frosty mug. Yeah. Super clutch. Yeah. Yeah, we'll have to take a field trip over there. Well, root beer is a sweet carbonated beverage developed in North America and traditionally flavored with extracts from the roots, bark and herbs. Early versions often use safra, winter green and Sasparilla to create the distinctive taste, and although modern formulas wide very by brand, Rootbeer remains known for its herbal flavor profile and its long-standing place in American food and drink culture. It's a whole freaking restaurant named after, right? I mean. Yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Is there any alcoholic drinks that incorporate root beer in it? I feel like there is. I would assume, but I don't know. Yeah, that's a question. Isn't there a schnapps? I don't know. Those are group beer schnapps, yeah. Oh, it's a fun one like a cocktail with the root beer mixed in with the liquor. That's what I can think of at the top of my head. I'm sure there are. I'm surprised it is not, but yeah. I think there is a liquor combination that turns out to taste a lot like root beer, but I can't even remember what that is. ps. One word. Because people like to say soft. Moving on to question number four. This one has two answers. You know what? I'm going to make the second answer a bonus point. I could make it worth a billion. Change as we go. But it does technically have two names, so I'll give you a point for each. Okay. No, scratch that, it will be a bonus point. You do have to get the base name correct. s. Part dessert, part magic trick. This delicious show stopper layers ice cream with sponge cake and meringue before a quick blast of heat. Name it. I'm let this just hang out here a minute. Uh describe it one more time, please. You got it. Part dessert, part magic trick. This delicious show stopper layers ice cream with sponge cake and meringue before a quick blast of heat. What is it? What's up, B? You got it? I don't know the spelling. I know what you're talking about, but I don't I can't come up. I got you though, yeah. Dang it. Uh Sorry Jordan. I know he hates when I do that. Does he? If you're listening Jordan. No, he doesn't hate it. He just likes to make fun of you for it. Two different things. He enjoys it. That is right. Oh okay. Yeah he's like keep. Did it again. You're welcome. Scotty's deep in thought. Everybody else looks like they're ready. BQ, you got something on your board there, bud? No, I don't. I can't. No coming up with a name. I can't come up with it. Say it all again, one more time. Yeah, one more time. All right, part dessert, part magic trick. This delicious show stopper layers ice with sponge cake and meringue. before a quick blast of heat. I got. I can't I can't come over there. I can't get there. Do you feel like you guys know it, but you can't figure out the name of it. Yeah. I feel like I can see it happening in the restaurant when they do it. I just can't think of the name. Okay. All right. Well, whoever's ready, let's reveal our answers. We got Creme Brulee from Nick, Cherry's Jubilee. from Scott, Creme from Kelly and Brian Mstain. We do not have a correct answer in the room. That's not, yeah. It is the Baked Alaska. Scott. Is that's what you're thinking? Yeah. Had that before? And yes, yeah. You had a Baked Alaska. I've not Never even heard of it. Yes you have. I have it. I have. No, I haven't. tells me otherwise. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Anybody what? Just I mean, you're never going to get it. You want to take a stab of what they call it in Scandinavia? The big Scandinavia. Yeah, I mean, it's called the Norwegian omelette. So I'm giving you a point if you'd have got it right and come up with that second. That's a cool name. That is I mean for a dessert anyway. Right. Yeah, pretty cool. So the baked Alaska combines cake, ice cream and meringue and a dessert that briefly goes into a very, very hot oven. The key is the meringue which acts as insulation and slows the melting of the ice cream inside. The dessert becomes especially popular in the United States during the late 19th century and is often associated with formal or celebratory dining. The reason it's called that is because it was about the same time that Alaska became a state. So just associated the two. Real quick, not what I was thinking. So what is it the one they bring out where they they you know, they light it. I hope they don't get that answer later. Uh That's That's banana. Or Cherry's Jubilee. Both Cherry's Jubilee. Both they light it. In my head I was thinking, you know, when they light it in the restaurant. That's what I was thinking. So but when he said the hot oven, I'm like, wait, that's not okay. When when did I have a baked Alaska Pro? Um, our our stepmom's grandmother used to make it for us when we were pretty little, you might not remember. I have that from my memory. It was absolutely delicious. Very good. Shout out to former stepmother Kathy. I was hung up on like you had two kind of celebratory words in your question. I was trying to think of I got hung up on. There was a pun in there with that. Yeah. I got you. what was it? Carnival and then some other pure dessert part magic trick. Magic trick? Mm, delicious show stopper. Show stopper. Yeah, something circus made. Yeah, I was trying to. I got you. All right. Well, good. I properly distracted you with those fluffy words then. So, let's move on to question number five. Crack the top and cue the fancy spoon. What French dessert is finished with a thin crisp shell of caramelized sugar over the custard base. I will technically accept two answers. No bonus point here. This the second one is a variety. Read it one more time. You bet you. We're going to crack the top and cue the fancy spoon. What French dessert is finished with a thin crisp shell of caramelized sugar over custard. That came out loud. Yeah, I need to stop drinking ice, I guess. I don't think you drink the ice, do you? You can't drink ice. Uh, it depends if it's small enough, it'll slide down the gullet. Swallowing ice. The gullet. You don't drink it. You can't drink ice. It's solid. I'm going to try. We'll figure it out. Crack the top. Q the fan spoon. What French dessert is finished with a thin crisp shell of caramelized sugar over custard, Kelly is finalizing. I hate. I appreciate you for the love of the game. All right, let's see those answers. We got Kramberle from Nick and Scott, from Kelly. And then Napoleon. That's a good answer actually, but uh incorrect as Kramberle takes it. Kelly's quitting the show. I was trying not to make eye contact with Kelly cuz I'm like leave it on your board. Oh man. I was I was too just trying to think of something focus looking down. That is Oh man, I so badly wanted to address that obviously in the last quest. . Oh, well. So Krem is the correct answer. Krema Catalana is how they say it in Spain and uh it is a slight variation, but it would have been acceptable for what I described there. Hm. Cool. Yeah. Krem. I was thinking of What do they call it in Spain? Yeah, I figured that was right on the tip of your. It's a custard dessert topped with a thin layer of sugar that is caramelized into a brittle crust. Its name means burnt cream in French. The contrast between the crisp sugar top and the smooth custard underneath. is the dessert's defined feature. It is often associated with French cuisine, though similar custard desserts appear in other culinary traditions as well, such as Spain, for example. Cool. Well, there is so much energy to be had here. Nicholas is just reveling so far and he's going to deliver a score as soon as we hear from our sponsors. All right, so after five, going from worst to first. The only guy at the table that's not pre diabetic right now has a zero. very egg over there. It's it's both a good thing and a bad thing. What a great way to introduce that. Hey, wait a minute, Nick, I'm fully diabetic. That's why you're in second, Scott. Brian's got Scott, you have two and I have four. Guys, I'm going to need you guys to pick it up because this is my favorite tie breaker I have ever written, so I'm going to need. Oh you can do it anyway. Yeah, we will anyway. All right. Here we go with question number six. What fried treat of Spanish origin is made from piped dough and commonly rolled in cinnamon and sugar. Oh, Kelly's excited. He might be on the board. What? Fried treat. There is a bonus point at the end, too. What? Is the end of the whole trivia or the end of this question? Number 10. Okay. Coming for you, Nick. Yes. You'll be leaning on the spelling, I hope. I will indeed. What fried treat of Spanish origin is made from piped dough and commonly rolled in cinnamon and and sugar. Everybody ready? Let's see the answer. We got a Churro from Nick. A soap from Scotty. Churro from Kelly and from Brian. y. Way off. Way off, baby. That is not piped in any way. Samsonite. It is the churro. Nice. Churros, get your churros. Shape. Got it. Yeah, the shape is the. Right, you. Yeah. Good job. You're welcome. Thank you, Taco Bell. to be like, what are those things that Taco Bell called? That's right. What are they called? Cinnamon twists? Those are. They're called chili cheese burritos. They're delicious. That would have been hilarious if you would have put down cinnamon twists. Like that's not wrong. You missed spelled chili cheese burrito. The Spanish name anybody know, I would have accepted that as well. It's still chili cheese burritos. It's not? It's universal. What is it? Porro, p o r r o. Porro. Porro. Yep. So the churro is a fried pastry of Spanish origin made from a flour-based dough that is piped into hot oil. Its rigid shape comes from the star-shaped piping tip used before frying. Turles are commonly coated in sugar often with cinnamon in our served plain or with a dipping sauce such as chocolate or cream cheese icing. They are very popular in Spain, Latin America and many fair and street food settings. It is one of the most common things you see in the Disney parks, too, I find. Yeah, true. All over the place. Yeah, they're easy to walk with, I guess. Who? Yeah, yeah. And who doesn't want a nice fresh hot churro when it's 1,000 degrees out there. Yeah. All right, moving on to question number seven. Kelly's on the board. The Ofer is off the table. The work here is done. There you go. number seven. I need both names for M&M. Like Candy-coated and cleverly named. M&M gets its initials from two surnames. I need both of them. Okay. I. This candy coated and cleverly named treat M&M's gets its initials from two surnames. What do the two M's stand for? Anybody know this confidently? No. I feel like we've faced this question. I feel like I've heard it dozen times. Yeah. I know this but completely blank. Most of you will have one, I suspect. Okay. And the other one would have been news to me even though we've had this before. Gotcha. Brian's finishing up. Yeah, I'm making three words too, cuz I have no idea. Okay. I like it. Okay. We'll just take as many of the standing, right? You know. I completely agree. I'm pretty sure his answer is like Hershey and Reese. Catberry. M&M. All right. What do the M&M stand for? Let's see some board. Oh, hold on. Keep yours where Brian is right. We know that already. Yeah, we know. Oh milk chocolate is. That's a good answer actually. Kelly's working on it. Now he's ready. Let's see it, Kelly. We got Marshall Mathers. I like it. Tell me I'm not wrong. Tell I can't tell you you're not wrong. Mars and Marshall and Mitchell and Mars. Mars is the correct answer, but it's Murray is the other one. I knew it started with an M. Yeah. I knew it. Is that a one two pointer or just so just a one pointer if you got both names. You got to get both no matter what. The Mars is one that comes to mind usually pretty quickly. Right. Yeah. You know, a popular brand name. So the names are Forest Mars and Bruce Murray, M u r r i e, whose surnames supplied the two letters. Mars is associated with the Mars company while Murray is the son of a Hershey executive. Their partnership helped the candy in the early 1940s and the hard candy shell made the chocolate easier to transport and handle. More so than any other chocolate products. melts in your mouth, not in your hand. It's a little bit of a palace. Expected. Yeah. But not holding it right. If you had kids that enjoy M&Ms in their car seats, you know that's false. Yeah. If it's over 80 degrees, it's getting on your hand. For sure. Yes. for sure. All right, so that was question number seven. Moving on now to question number Eight Baklava. Anybody had it? Yes, love it. Love it. I don't know. That doesn't mean I know anything further than that. Fair enough. Baklava earns its flaky reputation from layer after layer of what paper thin dough. What is the dough called? Do. Do. That is one name for it. Like Kelly said, prove me wrong. We are. That is delicious. Earns its flaky reputation from layer after layer. of what paper thin dough. It's not the only place you find this dough. Can be savory, can be sweet. . What does it start with? A letter. Actually, there's multiple spellings. That's the most hint you're gonna get. Oh, come on. That's best tent you're going to get. not going to get there. Try the word I'm thinking of how it ends. I'm not sure which Okay. Yeah. I'm curious where that's going. I'll hear that story in a minute. Scotty. I don't know the answer, so I wrote down my name if I was a rapper. Okay, I appreciate. There is a So did I. I can't wait. No, it's. might be the same. You never know. Yeah, that's true. Brian, no clue. You got a good answer. You got an answer. Okay. That's that's just going to become a thing. Kelly, you're ready for us? Sure. earns its flaky reputation from layer after layer of what paper thin dough. Let's see the questions. We got Filo dough from Nick, Cracker from Scotty. That is really funny by the way. I'm not sure what you got there, my man. That's a P with four other letters. Potential letters and vanilla crisp. Okay, another wonderful rapper name. It is in fact Filo Doe or Filo. F I l o is the American more colloquial version. It's p h y l l o is the formal version. Fat, pretty hot and tempting. Yes. There you go. Yeah. Nice work, Nate. Thanks man. That's good. My earliest uh exposure to this. You remember Olga in the old mall? I don't know. Was that a chain? Yes. It's a chain. They did a spinach pie in. Oh baby. delicious. Really good. Yeah. Nick looks disgusted. Spinach pie? I've had it. It's good. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Most pie is. Yeah, it's hard to find. I mean. Not a lot of bad pie out there. You've done the you've done the   uh the English meat pie or fish pies. Oh. Preferred. We could I like a savory pie. for sure. You thought you thought you one of those. What's what's the Shepherd's I Uh mince meat, yeah. My mouth. Uh peas and carrots. Veggies and then top with the   uh mashed potatoes. Mhm. It's the long island of. It kind of is. I make it a lot actually quite often. I mean a little bit like a pie but some mashed potatoes on there but Taste like a what? Like a frozen like a pot pie, but you're saying put some mashed taste basically. I mean, not really a pot pie. I think more like a a meat loaf that has the mashed potatoes on top. Yeah. And then you and then you bake it so the mashed potatoes get like crunchy. Oh my god. Yeah, you actually take a fork and you make these little peaks so they brown. Yeah. Traditional Shepherd's pie is made with lamb. That's correct. Oh. What's what's a non non lamb based one called? Do you know that one? I don't know that it's like meat pie? Cottage pie. Cottage pie. There. Ah, look at that. Knowledge. Love that. So much knowledge. To save that. for peasant food later. I should give you my hat. No more food categories. A baklava is made with multiple layers of , a very thin pastry used in several Mediterranean and Middle Eastern desserts and savory dishes. These sheets are layered fat, usually butter and combined with chopped nuts and syrup or honey. Filo's thin structure allows it to bake into a crisp, flaky texture that defines baklava. Not terribly different than like uh puff pastry. Yeah. Just much Yeah. Yeah. No puff. No puff. That is a perfect segue into our score check. All right. No puff. After eight. Kelly, you're on the board, you got one. I'm happy. Brian and Scott. You got two. You guys are tied for a second. And I'm in the lead with six. I guess Nick's running away with this one. I mean, the last one is unofficially worth two. Um Doesn't matter. But yeah, it really doesn't matter at this point, so, man, that's surprising me. How can it be unofficially worth two? Because I'm going to make it worth two even though it was going to be a bonus question. Okay. Okay. Now it's official. Okay. Now it's official. Okay. That's right. All right, moving on to question number nine. What's smooth? dairy free frozen dessert made from fruit, puree or juice is often served as a pallet cleanse between courses. Let me go again. What's smooth, dairy free, frozen dessert made from fruit puree or juice is often served as a pallet cleanser between courses. Where's the bonus for the whatever we said for this one? It's for the number tax one. Okay. There's a lot of alliteration in there. Okay. Does that throw you off? No. Which one? Frozen. It's just a question. There's a lot of peas in there. Peas, pure eyes. Okay. Palet. It's only two. Okay. Or three. No, no, two. What happened? He blacked out. Yeah. I I quit listening. That's right. That's right. Yeah. It's you lose some of the passion when you've been. All right, one more time. Yes, please. What smooth dairy free frozen dessert made from fruit puree or juice. Oh. is often served does a pallet cleanser between courses. Nick knows and none of us do. Yeah, okay. It's a short version. I am uh, potentially, depending on how you spell it or should I say misspell it. I may ask you to pronounce it. Not an issue on mine. Slight uh, that's a slight hint actually. I'm just nothing. I can't come in nothing. BQ, anything? I think I do, yeah. Man, it's running. Here, I'll pronounce it. I got it. Okay. Can you pronounce it? Yeah. Okay. Oh. I think I spelled it right even. Well, let's see Nick and Brian's boards or Kelly or excuse me, Whatever. Doc, you got something. That's brilliant, right? Yeah. What have we got over here for BQ? Nick's answer. That's right. Jello from Scotty and Oh yeah, Sorbet. Sorbet is the correct answer. Not to be confused with Sherbet, which is Jerry Full. I mean have a point. It's brilliant. Thank you. Did not know it was used to cleanse. Yeah, commonly between uh like when you have like a five or six course. Is it a sort of bit like a yogurtish consistency? No I think more like if you took just take a bag of frozen fruit and throw it in a blender. Okay. And then when it softens up enough, then that's. And you drink it like a No, you eat like it's like spoon like. Okay. It's the same. It's softer than of ice cream or. Yeah. A little more ice crystal like more than Sherbert less creamy but also yeah, it's like seriously like just a bunch of blended up fruit. Italian ice consistency. Similarly although that typically has creamier than that. No, not that cream. Definitely not. And it's a common ice cream replacement for people who are dairy in. Got you. Lactose. There you go. I should get half a point. That's brilliant. Sorbet is a smooth frozen dessert made from fruit juice or fruit puree, sugar and water. Because it contains no dairy, it has a lighter texture and is more direct fruit flavor than many other frozen desserts. It is commonly served as both a dessert or a pallet cleanser, especially in formal multi course meals. There you go. We are just about done. I like this question very much. It is officially worth two points. So uh, you got an option there. Number 10. This fairground favorite was invented in 1897 by an unlikely duo, a dentist and a confectioner, and was made popular at the 1904 World's Fair under a different name. Oh. What sweet treat are we talking about and for the bonus point, what was the original name? Oh, oh okay. So not yeah, I in my question I meant for it to be a bonus point, but you can answer either one. It's this is worth two points officially. 't matter anyway. Make some room here. There you go. All right. Deep thought. the big important parts. This is a fairground favorite. was invented in 1897 by an unlikely duo, a dentist and a confectioner. And it was made popular in 1904 at the World's Fair. So much happened at the 1904 World's Fair. That's what's confusing me right now. happened and it was released originally under a different name. So we want to know what the today's name is, the popular name and for another point, you can tell me what it was released under. M. dentist and a confectioner. That is to me at least the defining characteristic. Seems like they were in cahoots. Can you read it one more time working out of a business plan there a little bit? It's like big farm and Yeah, that's right. That's right. This fair ground favorite was invented in 1897 by an unlikely duo, a dentist and a confectioner and was popularized in the 1904 World's Fair under a different name. point for each name. I yeah, it doesn't matter. I'm losing anyways, so I'm going to go, yeah. I think I'm wrong. Okay. Scotty, you got two names down? I do. Okay. Kelly ready? There we go. Let's see it. We got a funnel cake from Nick and a Be. Well, I I didn't cross that Be. I want. Gotcha. We got cotton candy and puffed sugar from Scotty, funnel cake, Kelly, funnel cake and elephant ears from Brian. Cotton candy is the official correct answer. Oh wow. Okay. And it was released under the name Fairy Floss, which I think is awesome. Ah, the dentist. That's right. Fairy Floss. Fairy Floss. One point for the dock. That away. So the I I was debating between what they put funnel cakes. Funnel cakes. I wanted to do waffle cone. Yeah 1904 worlds fair, right? Waffle cones obviously the other descriptions. Hot dog. I mean there was so much that went down at Ice cream cone. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, really. Well, cotton candy was invented by dentist William Morrison and confectioner John C. Wharton. It was originally called fairy floss and gained widespread attention at the 1904 World's Fair. The treat is made by melting sugar and spinning it through tiny openings where it cools into thin strands. that collects into a light airy mass. It's mostly air, so it has typically, it has more sugar than even most candy bars. Excuse me, has less sugar than even most candy bars. It's a very neat tree. Like how did they figure that out? . That's a good question. Right. That's a good question. Couple of weirdos if you ask me. I'm telling you. I mean, how do you get that job? Just make fool around and try to make up candy. Spinning, yeah. road trip. Road trip to Kentucky. me and my mother and my two daughters when they were young. And one of them was like, I told him we're going to stop at the convenience store, go to the bathroom, whatever. One of them was like, I want cotton candy. Like they don't usually have cotton candy at convenience stores and I mean as soon as he walked in right there, cotton candy. I'm like, all right. Boom. Like just crazy like bouncing off. during a road trip, right? Like what cotton candy done. There's a convenience store until that day. All right, do we want tie breaker or do we need to award the Victor first. Well, let's go and get. Nicholas, it's your call, man. We already know who won. That we do. You cocky about it. Yeah. kind of ran away with it, Brian. Go ahead and give us a final score. We'll give you your stupid applause and we'll give my awesome. Congratulations. Final. Final score. Kelly, you ended up with one. What? Just one? Yeah. Brian, you got 2.1 because you did answer one question with Nick's answer and that was the smartest thing you've done all night. I appreciate that. Scotty I got some love on that. Thank you. You ended with cotton candy. Uh. You did well, yeah, I was thinking of your high school nickname, sorry. You ended with three after you won on the you just got the gotten gain one correct. And then finally, I had seven. You did great, Nick. Thanks. And so that gives a victory to Nicholas. He's actually one before. Bravo. Oh, that's funny. Good good stuff Nick. Act like you've been there before. I hate that. Appreciate the point one. Yeah. You. Well, when you pander to the score keeper, it usually works in your favor. I know, it's just a smart move he was winning. That's right. That's right. All right, here's a tie breaker. About five hours ago, this is 100% true. Five hours ago, I arranged to have five dozen original glaze crispy cream doughnuts delivered to this studio where we are right now. I did not send the order through. What? Why not? I know you're disappointed. Well you're going to find out in a minute why I didn't do it. Okay. Including the cost of nuts. Tax, a 20% tip and the delivery fee. What's the final bill for five dozen glazed donuts? Five dozen? Mhm. From crispy cream. You know how many that is, Brian? Give me that in donuts. Yeah. I like to use the saying, I bet you dollars to donuts because that is typically putting yourself at the disadvantage. That's not true anymore. Yeah. You know. Okay. Five dozen donuts. Five dozen. We have the cost of the donuts themselves. Yes. Tax. Built off of the dozen. So we're not buying any. Are these crispy cream donuts? Crispy cream original glaze specifically. Okay. My favorite donut, by the way. 20% tip, tax. It's really. really boring color. I'm I I can't do math when I'm angry. Are you mad because I cancelled the order? The thought that I could be eating a crispy cream donut right now. Well, when you hear the answer, you'll understand why I didn't hit send on that one. Have your kids skip a meal this week? They don't need that many. Just cut it down like a dozen or two. What are you doing? What are you doing? Yeah. Hold on, still doing math. You get two. That's fine. That's fine. I I was expecting a wrap at the door. Like don't know. Now, wouldn't that be timed perfectly if I could have lined that up. Hold on, I got a question. I got a serious question. Do you tip pretax or posttax? The tip was that's a it would be pretax. Okay. Okay. Correct. Yeah. Good question. Yeah, that is a good question. I mean, you should always tip pretax. The tip was included in what I was doing online. Nick doesn't like this at all. No. You don't tip pretax? He doesn't. I always bill total and I just multiply that times 20. That's what I do. I look at the pre tax total. You multiply your bill total times 20? That's the way hard way to do. No, you do 10%, you move the. No, no, sorry. I always do tax times two and round up. Tax times two. Yeah, that's why I actually. That's too low. Don't do it too little. Oh, Because tax is like seven No, wait, it's like seven or 8%. You're wrong. This is the oldest conversation. Just go let's go. Let's. All right. Kelly Kelly got your math over there. I. All right. Doesn't even count for anything. It doesn't count. Exactly. I just threw something something. He got last. I might hold my board to the back. Who cares? We got $86 from Brian. 30 $33? $33. $5 dozen. $5 dozen? I think he would have done it. could put a put a one in front of that. 13458 from Scotty, 89 12. Scotty would take this one. It was 114.57. Okay. All right. it was all set in time. I thought donuts were cheaper than that. Yeah, no, that's It's 20 I was thinking 20 bucks a dozen. Yeah, I think it would worked out to about 17 if I recall. I've never bought more than one at a time, so. Right. All right. Well, there you go. All right. Now I just want to close out. Obviously, we all have some experience with the Well. We tend to lean one way or over another in terms of uh whether we like chocolate more or something more in the fruity style category, cake over pie or brownies. Where do you go? What's like the if you could just really pick one sweet category that you had to live with the rest your life. I can't pick one. I'm all over the place. Are you? Just I got to have some Reese's peanut butter cups. I got to have some sour patch kids. Those are I like opposite. Yeah, I like Twix, I like uh KitKats. Swedish fish. No. Life saves.
