I Tried Every Famous Cartoon Food

I remember the first time I gained consciousness.

It was when Spongebob forgot the Krabby Patty formula.

I know you remember that.

Ever since then, I've wanted to try a Krabby Patty.

So, what if there was a way to do that?

That is why today we are going to make

and taste the top 12 most popular foods from various cartoons ranging from Spongebob,

One Piece, The Simpsons,

and many others of

which will fight to win the title of the best cartoon food ever.

These are all foods voted on by you.

The top four vocators are going to receive a first round buy

while the other eight duke it out in round one.

Starting with our first matchup, number nine, Bacon and Eggs from How's Moving Castle.

The competitor number eight,

the bet it all on black garlic burger from Bob's Burgers.

For the record, Drive My Car was in second place.

You know, I know a lot of people were asking for it,

but you can buy black garlic or you can make it.

It's actually not that hard.

Just don't try stealing it from Fig Jam.

Now, most of the videos online use the Bob's Burger Cookbook as fact,

but we did our detective work.

And guess what?

Everyone was wrong.

The version Bob makes in the show is totally different from the book.

On the show, Bob makes an onion parm red wine vinegar sauce

that we presume is pureed

because the bottom bun gets shredded Roma,

diced tomatoes, and a drizzle of the sauce.

There's no onions in sight at all.

Now, spread on the black garlic,

the only ingredient actually mentioned on your cooked burger patty.

Add it to your bottom bun and crown with a mayor brushed top bun.

The only thing that I would hope

that we would achieve is some sort of a reaction

that might have us going,

"This is an exquisite mouthfield."

Next up, number nine, bacon eggs from Howal's Moving Castle.

While we didn't have an open fire, there is a calcifer appearance.

The cartoonishly wide bacon is everything here, and we're committed to that.

So, we're meat gluing two pork blets together, placing it in sousvid, slicing it,

and roasting it.

This was not an easy task, but we wanted to get it right.

And then we finished off in the frying pan with our eggs.

Feed Kel for the shells, of course.

Look, we didn't have Miyazaki's budget here.

Cook the eggs sunny side up right in the baking grease until the whites

are set.

Get a big block of cheese, some fresh bread,

and a hot cup of tea ready.

And of course, two spoons and a fork.

Our judges today are Chef Christian,

a kid at heart with a very discerning palette.

But our second judge is someone we could have never expected.

Someone who has brought smiles all across the earth.

Bill Oakley, former showrunner and head writer of The Simpsons.

I'd love to say it's a small world

because now he's making food content

and what he calls an elevated lowbrow reviewer on Instagram.

We're a big fan of him and we're happy to have him here.

I mean, this is eggs and bacon,

but you do have a very big block of cheese

and some bread and some hot tea.

This is kind of fire serving like a bacon steak like that.

Amazing idea.

So, instead of getting a ton of tiny slices

that are super crispy

and maybe almost dry,

instead you get this thick, beautiful, luscious, almost steak-like slice of bacon.

It's salty.

It's fatty.

And of course, you got some fried eggs.

It's a fried egg, so it's not that special, right?

But altogether, this makes a pretty classic breakfast.

A little bit of cheese, a little bit of bread.

I like it.

It's delicious.

But the cheese is really what puts it over the top for me.

Something about that particular cheese on top of this stuff takes it to another

level.

The bacon thick and luscious.

The egg runny.

The tea kind of does help wash it all down.

Let's bring out the burger and see where that stacks up.

I will say visually to me this looks like a very average burger.

It looks like a burger from a cartoon, which is exactly what it is.

It looks like if you were to draw Archie comics 1959,

they're having a burger in Pop's Chocolate Shop.

That's what it would look like.

It's actually a very good point.

There's a lot of black garlic underneath that.

No, no cheese.

They're betting it all on black garlic.

So, let's taste.

You know, it's leaving a lot to be desired.

I don't know if I would bet it all on this black garlic burger.

It's shockingly bland.

Even the black garlic is barely noticeable.

There's a lot of black garlic on this.

I'm really not picking it up that much.

But all in all, I would say it's like tasty,

but it's not like blow my mind.

I'd come back to this restaurant if it were a restaurant.

It's really lacking something.

And I don't know whether that would be cheese or some other element.

Also, I noticed there's no like acid like a pickle.

Yeah, it's lacking in texture, too.

It doesn't have any crunch in it.

So, that's the issue.

It's lacking depth, I think, is what we're talking about here.

So, let's vote.

One, two, three.

Woo!

Oh, crazy.

I thought you were a writer.

I know you're an artist.

It seems odd at first glance, bacon and eggs beating a burger,

and I get that, but honestly, the burger wasn't that good.

Yeah.

Sometimes there's beauty and simplicity, and I think this is one of those moments.

Moving on.

Number nine, Bacon and Eggs from How's Moving Castle moves on to the next

round to face our number one seated Krabby Patty from Spongebob.

Our next first round battle is an anime showdown.

Number five, Naruto versus number 12, One Piece.

Ramen may be the real secret to Naruto's success.

Specifically, extra-L large miso tonkotsu ramen with extra chashu from Ichiaku ramen.

Now, here's the funny thing.

I actually order my ramen exactly like this.

and I ordered it like this before I even knew about Naruto.

That said, I've made tonkotu the hard way

and an easy way

that I've devised,

but that would take a while to explain here.

So, head to the link in the description

if you want to learn how to make it.

We never saw exactly how Naruto's favorite ramen is built,

but I've worked with enough Japanese chefs and this is how I do it.

First, a nice miso, then a rich tonkotu broth, creamy and delicious.

Of course, cooked straight ramen noodles.

There's absolutely no dipping ramen here.

Followed by an extra heaping helping of chashu.

Your soy aiama egg men which is bamboo shoots.

Naruto maki or fish cakes.

This look familiar to you?

Did sliced green onion.

Nori.

I don't know how Naruto is eating this every day and not gaining weight.

I guess it's all the energy he's expending.

But realistically, I would also eat this every day even without a lifetime pass

to Ichiraku Ramen.

Next up, number 12, Sanji's curry, aka Marine Captain's Curry from One Piece.

You've been asking me to make this dish for a long time.

It starts with freshly ground garam masala.

Then we go on to seasoning and marinating our beef with aromatics and yogurt.

Next, we finally dice onions cooked until beautifully browned and caramelized.

Then we blanch tomatoes so that we can peel their skin off.

Now to the lard flour base of a curry r.

We then add curry powder and garam masala.

Mix until lightly brown and fragrant.

Then to a pot of boiling carrots and potatoes,

we add the curry r beeftock, the tomatoes,

and of course those beautiful brown onions.

Give it a mix.

And finally, we add our marinated meat and cook.

Bring it to a boil, simmer, reduce.

Finish that off with some nice sweetness from a freshly grated apple.

Serve it up on a beautiful marine plate.

And let's just hope you don't get thrown overboard.

I'm scared.

I'm going to be honest.

I don't want to let you guys down on this.

Naruto versus One Piece.

Which show is better?

That's not what we're answering today, actually.

But we are going to find out which of these dishes is better.

Let's start with One Piece.

Yeah.

Oh, wow.

It's going to be hard for any other cartoon dish to compete against this.

This is the type of dish where you take a bite and you're like,

"Maybe I'll just have a little about 30

or 40 more times until the plate is empty."

It's a classic Japanese curry, but a little bit elevated.

I mean, you've got this like succulent, fatty beef, incredibly spicer curry sauce,

and it's just so rich, but it's not too heavy.

There's a little bit of sweetness from that apple.

I could eat a gallon of this.

We still got seven more dishes to go.

Now, we have Ichiu ramen.

Cheers.

How is Naruto not fat?

He's burning mad calories.

This is what I imagine Naruto feels

when he's at the bar just housing it,

asking for more.

I've always found that the more amount of noodles

that I can get in my mouth,

the better.

This is ridiculous.

It's anxious.

It's creamy.

It's almost like every flavor you want in one bowl.

There's nothing missing.

But I I don't know

that I would say

that that's not true about the curry either.

These are both excellent dishes,

and it really comes down to what you personally like.

The curry makes me crazy.

This is great, but it doesn't make me crazy.

M interesting.

I mean, they're both heartwarming, right?

One, two, three.

Boom.

Samji's curry upsets our number five seated ramen from Naruto.

To be fair, they're both delicious dishes,

but we don't have time to talk about it, so we're moving on.

Now, we have the battle of the fat man versus the fat cat.

This is Family Guy versus Garfield.

First up, Family Guy's car panini.

Look, if you try to put Peter Griffin on a diet,

he'll escape to the convenience store and probably make this in his car.

So, I begrudgingly did the same. car panini, panini press, bread, three sausages,

peanut butter cup.

Of course, don't forget your crumbled Doritos,

and then a Cadbury egg cracked right on top.

Oh god, I don't ever want to see this image again.

Now, you might be thinking, "Oh, well, what about cleaning your hands?

Why are these so big, Hannes?

Whose are these?"

It's used as a bib, too.

Well, good thing it looks like this now.

My god.

There is quite literally nothing good about how this sandwich is made.

After we pressed it, the filling barely stayed in the sandwich.

And well, let's be real, it doesn't look good either.

Next up, lasagna from Garfield.

Wow, there's no definitive recipe out there,

but we did lean into a comic strip where the owner, John,

actually makes the lasagna.

And hearing Garfield say in his first movie,

I like it for the cheese and the meat and the sauce.

Are those not all the basic things that make up a lasagna?

So, first, a layer of bolognese.

A layer of freshly cooked lasagna sheets.

More bolognese, raakota, and another layer of lasagna sheets.

Repeat this a few more times to top with a heavy dose of mozzarella

and bake until a deep rich golden brown.

Now we can enjoy nature's most perfect food according to Garfield, not me.

Garfield kind of popped off on that lasagna.

This is insane.

Thank god we have Garfield's lasagna.

But you know, this could be good hypothetically.

Never say never.

Uh let's start with the best dish here.

This looks like a cross-section that I saw possibly in my nightmares.

It's grotesque.

Intentionally.

I mean, it can't be that bad, right?

I mean, look at Peter.

He's okay.

You know what?

It's not bad.

You guys don't look like you're sharing the same sentiment as I am.

It's the Cadbury egg that derails the whole thing.

It would be tolerable if it weren't for that.

It's repulsive.

I mean, it's intentionally repulsive.

That was the joke in Family Guy to begin with that this was gross.

And it pays off.

In real life, it's just as nauseating.

It almost evolves from like, oh, there's sausage and then there's some sweetness.

Okay, now it tastes like chocolate and then it transitions to vomit.

The sausage and Dorito part was pretty good,

but it's when that freaking Cadbury egg swarms your mouth you want to barf.

All right, lasagna.

I mean, you know, I don't even think we need to vote.

It's standard lasagna.

And I think anything that isn't vomit on a plate would beat this.

And so, what's your vote?

Lasagna.

Lasagna.

Lasagna.

There's really not much to be said.

Peter, look, you did something.

It does smell quite a bit.

That said, moving on.

And Garfield's lasagna moves on to the next round.

Not really a surprise here.

In our final first round battle, we have Jake's perfect sandwich from Adventure Time.

Something I've always wanted to try.

And up next, The Simpsons Rib Witch from Crusty Burger.

Jake's perfect sandwich.

Let's make a sandwich

that is bigger than any other sandwich I think I've ever made in my

entire life.

Now, we will be doing this a little bit out of order,

but we will get it all in there.

First, we'll start by torching our bread.

Spread both sides with cream cheese.

Next, some sprigs of dill on your top bun.

On the bottom bun, pickles from Frismo.

Add some sliced boiled egg along with any bird you can find from a

window.

Followed by sliced cucumbers, Roma tomatoes, yellow onion, and of course, the finest seasoning,

tears for salt.

At least that's what Jake would do.

Finally, our steak.

Next up, bacon.

And lastly, you didn't think we'd leave out the soul of a lobster,

did you?

And honestly, I thought this was going to look bad, but it's amazing.

Thankfully, Magic Man didn't show up before our tasting

because I want to put this in my mouth.

Now, on to number 10, The Simpsons Rib Witch from Crusty Burger.

You want this before the meat supply goes extinct.

And speaking of meat, we used a mixture of ground pork, ground beef,

and ground bacon because the actual meat is unnamed

and may have more legs than a pig.

Now, I'll let you decide if we added that.

We mixed the seasoned meat and shaped it into a rib-like patty,

which we then cooked

and lacquered in a nice barbecue sauce placed on a butter toasted bun.

And this probably looks nothing like the imposttor at Universal Studios.

So, prepare for pupil dilation.

Dude, this is absurd.

I think if Jake the dog was real and he saw this right now,

I feel like he'd be proud of us.

I'm stunned at how much this really looks like it came from Adventure Time.

It's like somebody shined a magic ray into the TV

and brought that drawing to life.

It just has visual elements of that show all over it.

And then we have a very special, albeit much smaller, from the Simpsons,

the Rib Witch, which I love

that this has the seal

that said it's not just good,

it's good enough.

It does look hilariously more appetizing just cuz it's simple, right?

You've got like the caramelized meat and a bun.

As someone who worked on the Simpsons for many years,

I always thought that Crusty Burger was most closely aligned with Burger King.

This looks to me like it's Burger King's version of McRib.

So therefore, I pronounce it faithful to the show cuz it's small

and kind of sad looking.

It's not about size, it's about taste.

So, let's taste.

There's a steak on here, too, right?

Honestly, it's pretty good.

What are y'all's first thoughts?

It's a lot.

I don't even know if I got everything in that one bite.

I think it's pretty good.

Like, my main problem is that it's just so huge,

you can't get it into your mouth.

I kind of like it.

The bar of practicality is in hell, but it tastes great.

You got some fresh cucumber.

You have some pickles.

This is a gnarly club sandwich.

It's got poultry, bacon.

I do like the two kinds of cucumbers, a pickle and a fresh.

Okay, not bad.

Now, pitting it up against the rib witch.

How do you feel about it?

Masterful job of approximating the level of quality that you'd find at Crusty Burger.

I kind of like that it was simple.

In a weird way, I feel like if George Moes was here,

he would eat this and be like, "This is perfect."

Texturally, it's not dry.

It's definitely meaty.

And the barbecue sauce on there is like a pretty, you know,

run-of-the-mill barbecue sauce, but everything pulled together into one sandwich.

If it's there, I'm eating it.

Yeah.

Three and a two and a one.

I almost voted for the rib witch,

but what put me over the edge was what would I go back

and eat again and again?

And honestly, the adventure time sandwich is good.

It's just too damn big.

You would go back

and eat it again

and again and it would still be there.

That's how much sandwich is in there.

So, moving on.

Number seven, Jake's perfect sandwich beats The Simpsons Rib Witch to move on to

the quarterfinals.

Onto our first quarterfinal matchup.

Bacon and eggs from How's Moving Castle moves on to face our number one

seated Krabby Patty from Spongebob.

This could possibly be one of the most exciting things we could be making

today.

For me personally, I watch reruns of Spongebob

and I have always wanted to try the Krabby Patty.

The funny thing is Spongebob makes it differently almost every single time.

Nickelodeon shows 23 ways and the wiki has over 70.

So get your King Neptune's Poseidon powder season patty cooking.

We flip it with our trusty spatula.

We top it with two pickles with ketchup smiley faces tucked under a slice

of cheese.

A then another pickle cuz I saw an image

that had a pickle here too,

so why not?

Top with sliced red onion, tomato, one nice leaf of lettuce,

and on the other side of our bun, mustard, and more ketchup.

And the real secret ingredient, the one that nobody ever knew was there.

Love.

I should also add that you can't forget to read it a bedtime story,

which we did do off camera.

And one thing's for sure, when we eat this,

we did not forget the pickles.

Okay, it's there.

Let's eat.

We made it to the quarterfinals.

We have How's Moving Castle versus the Krabby Patty.

This might be the most iconic food on the whole list.

Now, I always thought, even though Mr.

Crabs runs the restaurant that this was going to have crab in it.

Here's a theory.

Mr.

Krab is the only crab in the whole show.

So, is it made out of his family?

Yes.

I mean, off the bat, this is a better burger.

This is a really tough call, man.

This is a good burger, but this is an excellent breakfast.

True.

This is generally a balanced burger.

Properly seasoned.

The cheese is proper.

It's got pickles, lettuce, tomato.

Like, this is the most standard ingredients for a burger.

I was extremely happy with my burger.

Yeah, it's super good.

But it's competing against an excellent breakfast.

I've had a lot of burgers that are like this,

but I haven't really had a breakfast that's like this.

This is the toughest call so far.

What would I have again?

And again, and I think I know my answer with a three

and a two and a one.

Bing bing bing bing.

Yes, Spongebob.

Thank god.

This was the toughest call of this entire thing.

I could have that burger twice a day for 50 years.

Also, nutritionally, the burger is probably better for you.

Honestly, I picked breakfast because I've had bacon and eggs, I've had bread,

I've had cheese, and I have tea.

But just the setup of all of that, I thought that beat the burger.

Have this for breakfast, have that for lunch,

and have the Family Guy panini for dinner.

And then for dessert, the toilet.

Moving on.

So, the Krabby Patty moves into the semifinals.

Now, we have the number 12 seated Sanji's Curry facing Regular Shows Ultimatum Sandwich.

I'm going to be honest, this is a monstrosity.

When I first saw this, I thought, "Wow, there's no way that's possible."

Supposedly, it's only made once every hundred years.

So, thank God after we make this, we won't have to see it again.

We'll start by deep frying two burger patties and making them into cheeseburgers.

Believe it or not, those will then become our buns.

Take a separate cooked cheeseburger and wrap with ground beef.

M dectable.

And sear on all sides until cooked through.

Terrific.

Now place your cheeseburger stuffed burger on the bottom cheeseburger bun

and add your Himalayan ketchup,

which is Hines spiced with Himalayan aromatics, which hopefully Pops would approve of.

Now crown it with your other deep fried burger.

And uh I guess that's it.

I would allow Benson to eat this before I got to it

if I'm being honest.

I don't think that there's anybody that really actually wants this.

Is there a burger in that thing?

There's a burger inside this burger.

I worked on Regular Show.

Really?

How did that work?

What was that like?

It was fun.

It was JG Quintel had a short and they were like,

you help him come up with all the necessary stuff to convince the executives

that this can be a series.

And we did come up with the first four episodes

and like a sort of little bible for the show

and stuff.

It was really fun.

That's amazing.

Sanji's Curry versus the Ultimatum.

There are parts of my brain

that say this is good

and there are other parts of my brain

that say I don't like

that.

It's actually very similar to the Adventure Time sandwich

and that's kind of crazy

and too big.

The elements are all good.

There's a starchiness to it.

I can't quite explain.

It's the other burger that's inside the meat.

Yeah.

Like steamed it spun.

It's a title wave of burger flavors all kind of mushed up together.

If you just dip your spoon in

that and taste it

and then tell me what you like more.

I mean look, let's just call it a day.

It's Sanji's current.

It's not a fair competition.

This could possibly be part of your fault.

Theoretically, yes.

I wasn't involved with this particular burger,

but I think this is actually pretty good.

I don't disagree.

Almost any food of any kind would have a hard time competing against this.

I will say ultimately end of the day, the Ultimatum, not bad.

A little weird, a little too much.

It's really just a cheesy ketchupy burger.

It's like a triple reverse Juicy Lucy.

Yeah.

So, we're going to triple reverse ourselves to the restroom.

And we'll see you in just a moment.

And Saji's Curry continues its Cinderella run to face the number one seated Krabby

Patty in the semis.

On to the next number three.

Ratatouille versus number six Garfield's lasagna.

Ratatouille.

Possibly one of my most favorite movies of all time.

Who would have guessed, right?

Funny thing is, three star Michelin chef Thomas Keller, one of the greats,

actually consulted on the film

and provided the ratatouille recipe

that finally broke Anton ego.

It starts by spreading a pepper tomato sauce in the bottom of a skillet.

Then starting at the edge of a pan,

lay down your very thinly sliced vegetables, zucchini, yellow squash, Japanese eggplant,

and a fresh viner ripened tomato.

Repeat until the pan is filled.

Or just do what the rat says.

Sprinkle a mixture of garlic, oil, thyme leaves,

and salt and pepper over the vegetables.

Top with parchment paper and bake.

Remove and then perfectly align in a cylinder mold onto a plate.

This is a very old school way of plating, guys.

Drizzle a little pepper tomato vinegrett around the plate.

Top with one strand of a chive.

And probably don't tell anybody that a rat made this.

It is the cat versus the rat.

You're going to say no to this guy.

I feel like we needed this.

Our bodies needed this.

It's so much healthier than all the other stuff we made.

It's balanced.

It's acidic.

It's sweet.

It's earthy.

Here's the thing.

Ratatouille to me has never been a knock your socks off dish.

And often times it's served as a side.

And I think them serving it

as a main kind of

as a statement about the beauty of simplicity

and how it's all about great technique

and it's tomatoey.

It's slightly sweet.

A little bit of tartness too.

Even though there's only two textures, the textures are nice.

The vegetables are cooked nicely.

I think there may be a version of lasagna out there somewhere that's better

than this ratatouille,

but it's not this one.

Interesting.

1 2 3.

Wow.

It was hard not to give it to Remy cuz Remy is cute.

I'm sorry.

Ratatouille is not that crazy.

Go make it.

It's delicious.

It's just not better than a nice meaty cheesy lasagna.

I mean, it's not even a fair competition.

I can't believe I'm sticking up for vegetables, which I normally dislike.

I've disliked this dish for the first 30 years of my life.

But I'd say in this, honestly, in this competition,

I think this is the winner.

Looks like the cat won this time.

It's cuz he knows.

He knows what the audience wants to hear.

But unfortunately, I know and I don't care.

Moving on.

So, the lasagna moves on to claim our third semifinal seat.

Onto our last quarterfinal matchup to see who takes the final spot in the

semis.

Number seven, Jake's Perfect Sandwich versus number two, Gotcha Roast Pork from Food Wars.

This comes from Food Wars,

a manga turned anime that's maybe the greatest cooking competition show I've ever seen.

It's also incredibly inappropriate.

So, if you are under the age of 18,

maybe you should not be watching this show.

Anyway, this dish saved the main character's family's restaurant,

but can it win our competition?

We start by steaming chopped white potatoes until soft.

Then we brunois onion and king oyster mushrooms.

Saute them in butter.

We'll then mix them with the mashed potatoes.

This is an interesting direction.

We shape the potatoes with plastic wrap like a compound butter.

Put it in the fridge to get nice and solid.

Then we lay our thick cut bacon nice and neatly.

Bring back our mashed potato.

Wrap the bacon all the way around.

Then wrap it all up in plastic wrap to keep together.

Tighten it up.

Now you're going to have to freeze it a little while.

Now tie it with twine.

Tuck rosemary underneath the string.

Then into the oven goes the quote unquote roast.

Now the sauce. red wine into a saucepan followed by sweet sake

and soy sauce.

Reduce that down till syrupy and mount with a lot of butter.

Now remove your roast when the bacon is crispy.

Pour your sauce over it.

Top with a few pieces of water crust and serve.

Our final quarterfinal matchup.

We have the classic from Food Wars versus Adventure Time.

It's first of all presentation wise stunning.

It's really good and really weird at the same time.

It's very fatty yet acidic.

The smokiness from the bacon, the creaminess of the mashed potatoes.

Texturally, it's kind of interesting, right?

You've got this like sticky glaze enroed by this part sticky, part crispy,

part chewy, part fatty bacon

that kind of mixes all together with

that puree of potato.

Flavor-wise is not blowing my dress up.

Theoretically, all it is is an elevated version of mashed potatoes with bacon on

top.

First of all, the texture is remarkable, but it's also got this glaze.

I come and go on every second.

Like, I'm like, "Oh, I like this glaze.

Oh, I hate this glaze."

So, I agree.

I want to like it and I want to hate it,

but it's it's one of those things where it's like,

I got to taste it again to see what I really feel.

Precisely.

Now, this is the Adventure Time sandwich in a more reasonable size.

Seems promising.

Now, this is a tough call.

Both of these dishes are seriously flawed,

but they're also both good in a very weird way.

This sandwich is much more manageable now than it's ever been,

but it also served everything

that I don't really like it

as much as I thought.

Yeah, I feel this exact same way when I ate it.

3 2 1 Wow.

Gotcha.

Roast pork from Food Wars.

I will say it's a bit weird of a dish,

but it was better than the Adventure Time sandwich by a pretty strong margin

and I think that it's might be the one of the most beautiful dishes.

Absolutely.

But that's not what made it win.

What made it win was a uniqueness of flavor.

Made me question a lot of things though.

Moving on.

And the number two seated gotcha roast pork moves on to face Garfield's lasagna

in the semifinals.

Now, our first semifinal matchup.

The number one seated Krabby Patty versus the number 12 seed, our underdog,

Sanji's Curry.

This is a strong battle.

This is a hard decision.

It's actually our least voted for versus our most voted for.

Honestly, they're both equally flavorful.

Seasoned well.

Addicting.

Yeah, I have my answer.

You do?

Yeah, I do, actually,

because I know what I want to go back to

and take another bite of.

All right.

One, two, three.

And it's a win for the Krabby Patty.

They're both excellent.

And my only criteria was I could eat one of these every day for

a year.

The curry I would be sick of after eating for 60 straight days.

I'm already tired of it after eating it three times now.

It is absolutely delicious, but it's powerfully flavorful.

I'm going to want this on a specific day at a specific time,

and it's going to beat any other option there could ever be.

But I could eat this year round all the time.

It could be a personal thing where maybe I'm just tired of burgers.

That would make sense.

When a man is tired of burgers, he's tired of life.

But that said, Spongebob's Gravy Patty wins and moves on to the finals.

So, let's see who's going to join them.

There we have Food Wars versus Garfield.

The sauce is so odd.

It's an anomaly.

I kind of know my vote, weirdly.

This is that same Spongebob conundrum.

I like this a little better.

This one somehow lights up something in my brain

that is not usually lit up.

Lasagna.

I've had a million times.

3 2 1 Gotcha.

It's the most unique.

I mean, the lasagna is kind of just a mid lasagna.

But the gacha roast pork, it's tasty and unusual, but it's good.

It's like porky and smoky, and the potato has a nice texture.

It's got crispy, chewy, fatty,

and the bitterness that's in the sauce from reducing all

that wine works because of the richness of it.

Bitter is an underrated flavor profile.

Yeah.

And it shines a lot more than I thought it should,

but it's also shining.

Food Wars wins this one.

They move on to the finals.

Now they do get out and we find our winner.

The number one seated Krabby Patty versus the number two seated gotcha roast pork.

It's a heavyweight versus heavyweight showdown for the crown of

which cartoon has the best food.

Things are changing for this vote.

We're not just going to eat it and pick one.

We're going to eat, give it a score out of 10, eat the next,

and give that a score out of 10.

And then whichever one adds up to be the highest score out of 10

amongst the three of us will be our winner.

You guys don't seem that excited.

This is the fourth or fifth time we've had each one of these.

We're tired.

What tastes good while you're tired counts.

Yeah, that's true.

You're kind of like at your most critical.

Like I don't even want food.

But which food would I want more?

First, we're going to vote for the gotcha roast pork.

Bing bong.

Bing bong.

Wow.

High rating.

We're going to have to see resounding eights on this or more.

So, let's vote for the Krabby Patty.

Three, two, one.

25.3 for the Krabby Patty.

It takes the title.

It takes the win.

If it's good enough for King Neptune, it is good enough for us.

This feels satisfying to my childhood and possibly childhoods around the world.

Flavor-wise, this one poundforpound kept making me want to come back for another bite.

Out of everything we've tasted, the Krabby Patty made a statement.

There's a reason why the Krabby Patty

and similar burgers have been

so successful all over the world for over a hundred years.

It's because they're timeless and you don't get sick of them.

These other dishes are remarkably delicious,

but they have a bit of a shelf life.

It's not to say that they're not delicious,

but my taste buds get a little tired of

that after four or five dishes of it.

Whereas my taste buds continue to be delighted by a cheeseburger far past

that point.

It always delivers.

That being said, we hope that you felt that we delivered.

And if you didn't, please don't say anything.

Bye.
