Actually! Truffles remain expensive because they're difficult to mass produce. The recent proliferation of easily accessible truffle-based foods uses truffle oil which barely contains truffle if at all. Rather, they figured out the molecule (2,4-dithiapentane) that gives white truffles their signature flavor/smell and use that.
If Brennan’s take on Crunch bars is like that, I can’t imagine how he’d react to Aero bars, which have pockets of just air in them, you don’t even get the rice.
@@guidotron82 Aero would have more chocolate than almost any amaerican chocolate bar of similar volume thats solid, because US cholocate doesnt need tobe chocolate at all,
False, American products labeled as “chocolate” need at least 10% cacao. You can argue a higher percentage is better, but you’d be wrong because the quality of a candy comes down to the experience it provides. In many cases I might prefer hersheys over a European chocolate for the mouthfeel, versatility, price, taste, etc, you might prefer a Cadbury or a Milka but we all have preferences.
I love these glimpses into Brennan and Rekha's professional friendship. This, their interactions on the Game Changers Ratfish, more moments of these two just interacting in the world and feeding off the others energy.
My major problem with Brennan's take is that the chocolate bars usually have their weight listed on them, and the Crunch bar usually has a comparable weight to its solid bar competition and thus while rice replaces some of the chocolate, it also adds to the texture of the bar which makes up for the minute chocolate displacement by the rice. With the weights being comparable, it means that the air of the rice only lifts up, but doesn't replace the chocolate.
Similar weight because AIR(rice) has weight. Like air is heavy! I agree it's a very minimal amount of chocolate replaced by "air" though. Now potato chip bags...THATS air!
I’m actually pretty sure that Grant is in a show with Oscar - coming out likely sometime next year based on how long these things normally take - because the lore keeping posted a Tictok with them together in the dome a while back.
when it comes to baking essences, the only one you will EVER need is vanilla essence. for EVERY SINGLE OTHER FRUIT: use spices! Apples, cinnamon. Oranges, cloves. and so on.
I was singing along in perfect harmony when he was going off about air. The slight crunch doesn't set it apart in a way that makes it something worth getting excited about. Those candy executives know their business, and it is hollow.
@GamerJV gonna be honest, had to look it up (anarcado??) Because growing up in PR in the 80s, I guess cashews were not heavily traded. A lot of specific nuts are just called that, nuez.
This is the perfect middlepoint for lou getting snacks so good he gets to rep mr. peanut and zac shoveling shit into his mouth whilst crying; scathing critique of a full range of qualities of snacks
I'm literally ten minutes into this and just now realising it says "rate snacks" not "hate". All my expectations for this segment have completely shifted...
Once I bit into a bar of Cadbury's, and there was a bit of human fingernail in there. So in terms of chocolate bar fillings, the bar can for sure be lower 😅
While I am 100% with Rekha on Crunch bars, I have to defend Bennan on his puffed rice vs. popcorn stance. It isn't hypocritical at all because the popcorn isn't displacing any chocolate from a chocolate bar.
What is your definition of chocolate? In the us, chocolate products are required to have at least 10% cacao. You can argue that “real” chocolate has more but it’s a poor argument because “real” chocolate is a bitter medicine if we want to be pedantic
I have data on crunch bars. All the way back in middle school when we used to sell chocolate for our band functions, it was the "worlds finest" brand. Variety of flavors, one was the crunch equivalent. That puffed rice bar sold out every. Single. Year. First one gone. I don't deny that they're selling you air, but people love it.
I thought Diana and Greta would be similar the golden girls. Diana would have a more free spirited person who likes to have fun. The other Greta is the more studious and has to deal with the antics of Diana. Always having to come up with plans to get them out of the crazy and wacky adventures. At least that’s what I think a Diana and and Greta are to me as besties.
Not them immediately roasting Mani Japones, a perfect pairing with beer, and a staple in salvadorian homes TT Diana is 100% manipulative and doing too much all the time though, I'm aligned there
So. If someone puts cereal in front of you as the option for a snack, what are you hoping for? Honey bunches of Oats? Golden Grahams? Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Froot Loops? The Captain? Chances are, what ever you choose it is corn or wheat that gets it there. Not rice. Rice Krispies is ok. But wouldn't you rather have Frosted Flakes? Of course you would.
My hot take is I dont like snacks at the table at all... just have a meal with your buddies before you start or take a break in the middle for pizza or something! Distractions mid game are not my jam. If you need it for whatever reason its not something Id be bothered by but if thats not the case lets just have dinner together before man lol
Why eat a Crunch bar, when Krackels are right there? Just because they only make them as Minis doesn’t make them any less: if anything, you get all the positives of a rice chocolate bar, without having to worry about getting TOO much of anything
Of course they're all from the HMart and Whole Foods. Where are the snacks real people eat? The ones that would actually show up at a DnD table and not just BESM night at the game shop? EDIT: the first one probably was stale because your PAs bought all the things no one would ever buy. Just been sitting on the shelf because the Mami y Papi who own the store can't afford to throw out inventory.
Constitution Save was added as a segment, I speculate, as a structured long term extension of Brennan’s EpicSnack Rant (to camera) against those lembas-eating DMs Mercer and Iyengar in the GMing Exandria special.
First of all, just because Crunch bars have extra air does not mean they are not good; air takes an intense flavor and makes it light and snacky, ala whipped cream. Also, I am incredibly grateful I can recover from sobbing my eyes out (cut this) at the prospect that half of my country wants to elect a disgusting con-man who is not even trying to hide his incredibly stupid & obvious lies; is testament to just how powerful the UA-cam algorithm is at keeping me engaged even when I just can't take anymore and should probably spend some time with myself and my own thoughts so that I can process my screwed up reality.🙃
Oh God, Kit Kat are so DRY. Like, the worst wafers. Swedish Kexchoklad is so much better, and it's not even that great. Just has way better texture (and better chocolate, which is weird because it's also not great, especially compared to Finnish or Swiss, I say this as a Swede).

This is the video we SORELY needed. Also don't forget Nestle staunchly fights to this day to deny water as a basic human right.

They also killed numerous children in the Global South by pretending their powder milk is a substitute for breast milk
Obsessed with the fact that we now know Brennan ate SO MANY CRICKETS the previous shoot day, and still came back to set to eat all this
When did he eat the crickets? I'm not super up to date

I actually like the texture of Aero bars. Not so much the price, though.
when my godkid has bad period pains my one job is to find and supply mint aero.

@bionodroid547 "versatility" ok, right, whatever. "Mouthfeel" you can only mean lack of.

"Pigs. Pigs and dogs."
Yes! I loved the perfect timing.
Dude Rekha's comment killed me. Perfectly timed, and yet so left-field.

I love Rekha so much, she is hilarious. More content with Rekha please!!❤
I was so offended at brennans crunch bar take that i got a king sized bar last time i got snacks
The crunch is nice
I just rewatched of mice and murder on d20 and man, I need more DnD with the CH cast. Rekha and Grants chemistry is so good there
Rekha, Grant, Trapp, and Zacky would be a strong table. If you gotta go 6-person, Ally and Emily
@@link090909absolutely not. Sam Reich and Siobhan as the last player.
Ally has too much main character syndrome, honestly same with Emily.
I’m actually pretty sure that Grant is in a show with Oscar - coming out likely sometime next year based on how long these things normally take - because the lore keeping posted a Tictok with them together in the dome a while back.
@@emmakane6848 now THAT is awesome news
Watching these two eat weird snacks is something I never knew I wanted and subsequently makes me so excited for Gastronauts
IM SO GLAD YOU POSTED THIS SEGMENT IT WAS MAGNIFICENT
when it comes to baking essences, the only one you will EVER need is vanilla essence. for EVERY SINGLE OTHER FRUIT: use spices! Apples, cinnamon. Oranges, cloves. and so on.
Brennan’s take on Crunch bars is wild. Can’t believe this.
You'd think a man of his renown would understand the value of texture.
I was singing along in perfect harmony when he was going off about air. The slight crunch doesn't set it apart in a way that makes it something worth getting excited about. Those candy executives know their business, and it is hollow.
I’ve never disagreed with him more lol.
You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain
I'm neither here nor there on crunch bars but I'm just here for the conspiracy rant. 10/10
26:07 the force at which Brennan shot out the pistachio nut and Rekha’s stifled reaction kills me
kudos to Brennan for knowing both maní and cacahuates.
Isn't cacahuates Cashew?
@GamerJV gonna be honest, had to look it up (anarcado??) Because growing up in PR in the 80s, I guess cashews were not heavily traded. A lot of specific nuts are just called that, nuez.
Ghost in the peanut shell
I will keep coming back for Brennan's high-pitched wheeze laugh at 17:25. It fuels me with life.
Genuinely a sound I don't think I've heard Brennan make before
Why am I watching this on youtube when I'm a dropout subscriber?! I don't know, but here I am...
so you can get in the comments! 😂
I also have an dropout account
This is the perfect middlepoint for lou getting snacks so good he gets to rep mr. peanut and zac shoveling shit into his mouth whilst crying; scathing critique of a full range of qualities of snacks
I'm literally ten minutes into this and just now realising it says "rate snacks" not "hate". All my expectations for this segment have completely shifted...
Brennan’s reaction to Crunch is some Nick Miller shit for real. “Some candy fat cat is sitting on all that extra chocolate!”😂
I have to imagine someone went shopping at the bizarre bad snack section at an Erewhon and dropped $100 on pure trash snacks 😂
Some 10 Minute Power Hour runoff snacks.
The way they described the Japanese peanuts is exactly how I feel. I’ll eat some if they’re present but I never go out of my way to buy them
Did I watch this on dropout already? Yes. Am I watching it again? Also yes.
I feel bad that Brennan is a podling and needs constant almonds as a snack
Nah.... I can't. bro, no way Brennan just said that Crunch bars are overrated.
One of my fav lines from the college humor days: Can I help you Rekha?
Once I bit into a bar of Cadbury's, and there was a bit of human fingernail in there. So in terms of chocolate bar fillings, the bar can for sure be lower 😅
You gotta go with some soft red licorice. Great gaming table snack.
Yes. Yes. Came looking for this
I’ve never seen Brennan this serious as a DM. It’s good to see the priorities are in order.
taking a shot every time they say “i have a thought”
16:58 Why is Rekha so fucking funny 😭
While I am 100% with Rekha on Crunch bars, I have to defend Bennan on his puffed rice vs. popcorn stance. It isn't hypocritical at all because the popcorn isn't displacing any chocolate from a chocolate bar.
There is no such thing as cholocalate in the US, you are displacing the thing you have instead of chocolate.
"Hurr durr America bad."
Shut up
What is your definition of chocolate? In the us, chocolate products are required to have at least 10% cacao. You can argue that “real” chocolate has more but it’s a poor argument because “real” chocolate is a bitter medicine if we want to be pedantic
I would listen to Brennan talk about the gbbo all day
Brennan's love of the food quality of dense is seen in his hatred of the opposite.
I love a good airy food. It maximizing surface area!
My favorite part is I understand both of them everytime they confuse each other
I have data on crunch bars. All the way back in middle school when we used to sell chocolate for our band functions, it was the "worlds finest" brand. Variety of flavors, one was the crunch equivalent. That puffed rice bar sold out every. Single. Year. First one gone. I don't deny that they're selling you air, but people love it.
I love that we came for snacks, Rekha, and Brennan, but got entire lore on Diana, Greta, Osmo, Tadelle, and Dido.
The California Rice Marketing Board is taking out a hit on Brennan as we speak.
I used to think people were dumb for watching snack/candy reviews but I LOVEEE this one!!!!!
Rekha is so real about the peanut chews 😭 I love them
Peanut flavored taffy is not bad.
I love their friendship
I love Rekha's realization that she and Brennan were NOT talking about the same thing lmao
6:30 - that's some kind of copy of "kinder country" (unsure if it is called differently outside of Germany)
Exactly what I was thinking like isn't that just a kinder country? But I guess they don't have it there
🖐🏻Six.
I would love a season finally where Brennan picks his favorite snacks
Would also love if almonds take up multiple of the top spots xD
Ozmo farm is made in Turkiye
"Can I tell you something very sad?"
"No."
"Ok."
That's a good friend
I thought Diana and Greta would be similar the golden girls. Diana would have a more free spirited person who likes to have fun. The other Greta is the more studious and has to deal with the antics of Diana. Always having to come up with plans to get them out of the crazy and wacky adventures. At least that’s what I think a Diana and and Greta are to me as besties.
Who got you guys a bunch of expired snacks?
Ya'll need to launch a snackbox that delivers the week the snack episodes air so we can taste along at home
New toxic lesbian ship DianaxGreta! Who’s gonna be writing the fics?
Rekha is actually the coolest and funnest ever
I had to get up and fix myself some nachos in order to deal with this show. 😉
Crunch bars are great!
15:02 The laugh I laughed just now nearly broke my fucking windows lmao
My boy rockin' that Dad Bod.
First off, crunch bars are amazing. second favorite halloween candy after reeces.
17:08 LMAO REKHA THE DIRECTION OF YOUR MIND
Rekha should be a regular on this segment. ✨👌
"So few people in this era have the bravery to openly and proudly be a hypocrite." I would like this on a mug, please and thank you.
Not them immediately roasting Mani Japones, a perfect pairing with beer, and a staple in salvadorian homes TT Diana is 100% manipulative and doing too much all the time though, I'm aligned there
those are also very popular in Brazil!! i love them
as a brazilian I'm kinda sad brennan didn't like the peanuts :(
i really like those, specially in game nights
Gotta an ashtray but just to hold on lollipop while walking
So.
If someone puts cereal in front of you as the option for a snack, what are you hoping for?
Honey bunches of Oats?
Golden Grahams? Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Froot Loops? The Captain?

Rice Krispies is ok. But wouldn't you rather have Frosted Flakes?
Of course you would.
Cream of Wheat with honey, basil, and ham chunks.
Sweet is weak, embrace the savoury option, eat the meat.
Rekha is always so entertaining
Dude I’m literally eating a crunch bar wtf lol
I’m sending this to my fighter buddy who’s in the middle of a weight cut. Check and mate.
My hot take is I dont like snacks at the table at all... just have a meal with your buddies before you start or take a break in the middle for pizza or something! Distractions mid game are not my jam.

Rekha is awesome, "Puff that all day"
Do the work, eat the work.
14:39 chopsticks!
Reeses and oreo supremacy
I'll take the crunch bars Brennan
i went straight to pigs and dogs. brennan set us up to go that way and then acted like we're weird for thinking that.
Am I the only Brit here yelling at my screen to give the rhubarb bon bons another go?
Watching Brennan struggle dad style to open a lollipop for half a minute shouldn’t have been as funny as it was
Gotta get some dill cashews!
Why eat a Crunch bar, when Krackels are right there? Just because they only make them as Minis doesn’t make them any less: if anything, you get all the positives of a rice chocolate bar, without having to worry about getting TOO much of anything
I believe in Crunch bar supremacy
Did someone forget to grab snacks for this segment and just grabbed some out of the checkout line at TJ Maxx?
Rekha is so funny 🤣
Oof, this crunch bar slander. Let a crunch bar melt in your mouth a bit before chewing 10/10 mouth feel.
man i just googled it and that truffle pop corn snack is 65 dollars for a bag. Thats ridiculous for a snack, thats several meals
I will eat every crunch bar handed to me

i like crunch bar
listening to people chew food is the worst
Ok, maybe after three items described as “stale” you should start checking the expiration dates
Heres a dnd secret snack tip for you: just cut up a shitload of cheese and bread and jerky.
I've only seen these segments but do they do Dex, Wis, Int, Cha, and Str saves too in the rest of the show?

Eh bo qué bardean el maní japonés!
My mind also went to pigs.
The representation of the worst Turkish chocolate hurts my soul
Gretas are a better Wasa, essentially
Just polling: Rekha, right?
No, Rekha's on the left.
Personally, I will take a crunch bar over a KitKat any day.
Oh God, Kit Kat are so DRY. Like, the worst wafers. Swedish Kexchoklad is so much better, and it's not even that great. Just has way better texture (and better chocolate, which is weird because it's also not great, especially compared to Finnish or Swiss, I say this as a Swede).
