Hey guys! I have the results for the Coke here:

I didn’t want to paste all the text, since I wrote sort of a lot. :P

Lindsay and Brian were such great guests! You need to have them on for some more beverage talk. Since Lindsay goes to that taco truck, it’d be fair to assume she’s had her fair share of taco truck horchata. Her and Jesse would probably be cool people to have an horchata shootout with. Maybe have me in there too, since I have actually made my own. Hahah… Just sayin’ ;)
And dude, Tapatio has to win every single time. Bums me out that you guys didn’t like it. Being from LA, it’s basically a given that every restaurant worth something has it in their little condiment caddy on the table. It’s near perfect. Not too spicy, but enough bite to change the flavor. I personally like it on my sandwiches.
And one thing about McDonalds coffee: my gramps loves that shit. He’s been smoking for nearly 60 years now so all his tastebuds are gone. This motherfucker gets 5 creams and 5 sugars in his McDonalds coffee.
And there was this time where I went for breakfast and the lady in front of me asked for a small coffee WITH 12 SUGARS!! I swear this happened. I was just like “the fuck is she even doing?”
Anyway, thanks for playing the voicemail. You know I love ya, JoJo

Haven’t listened yet, but I must say, those are my favorite tortilla chips of all time - so good AND the cheapest ones on the shelf too - even at a gas station they’re still $2. They say $2 right on the package so they have to be $2 !

So the Aeropress sounds like it would be a great maker for us homeless dudes but it’s so much WORK!! I’ll stick to coffeeshops. Lazy like Lindsay! Great ep!! Funny you ragging on the guests toxic bev profiles!! :)) glad u boys loved the flat white!! Aloha

Intern Josh says:

no!! it’s so LITTLE work! seriously. it comes with all the stuff you need (other than a grinder, if you’re using whole beans - but you don’t have to). Xavier’s recipe uses a scale, but you can just use the AeroPress scoop (21g = ~1.5 scoops). There’s even a cap you can buy so you can store your grounds in the aeroPress if you’re on the go. and the waste is all compostable! It’s also light weight, it’s not bulky, and Amazon sells one that comes with a carry bag for it.

How much harder could I sell this thing? AeroPress, if you’re reading this, go fuck yourself.

Bethany says:

Awesome episode! I’ve actually never purchased either brand of hot sauce, but I totally plan on buying some Cholula next time I hit up the store.

Brian says:

That Aeropress tutorial is awesome, though it may make my now-public coffee problem even worse.

Follow up story about McDonald’s beverages: earlier this year, my step mom was in a McD’s and the employees were putting together a big order of like 30 large iced coffees. She asked what was going on and they said it was for a lady who calls in an order for like 30 iced coffees at the beginning of each month. Apparently, she takes them all home, puts them in a giant freezer, and then thaws one out every morning for breakfast. WHAT.

Intern Josh says:

Can your Step Mom put in a good word for us? We need to get that lady on the show!

O-Shen Christ says:

Yes Brian, ur TBASH mission is to scout that lady and her genius laziness to be on next episode !!!

Rachel says:

I love hot sauce and I loved this episode(and every episode!)! I wanted to suggest another medium for consuming hot sauce,how about on deviled eggs? They aren’t hard to make and taste better with hot sauce, I love rooster on mine! Just for another option. Since it was mentioned that hot sauce is usually eaten on something like a burrito or eggs…
