4:01

one. We

4:22

are here today. We

4:24

are gathered here today to

4:27

battle. I

4:30

cannot believe that we have never, and

4:33

we just did a search of our history

4:36

of our episodes and neither of these have

4:38

appeared. I have tried many

4:40

times in the past to

4:42

get potato salad into a

4:44

battle, but we just never, I

4:47

don't know, for whatever reason we never

4:50

land in the cold. Yeah, baked potato,

4:52

how is that not been in the battle? I'm shocked

4:55

it's never even come up. You

4:58

know what, let's do something we've never done. I

5:00

want to already read some of the phone comments.

5:03

I'm right off the bat. You

5:07

want to just use them as, you

5:09

want to read them and then just

5:11

use those to comment off of? Yeah,

5:13

sure. Potato salad is what Foley and Kippy

5:15

Kevin Ryan grew up eating because it's straight

5:18

trash. Alright. Only vinegar-based potato

5:20

salad though, not mayo-based. I agree

5:22

with that. But it's okay. Potato

5:25

salad includes both. I love

5:27

a German, but in general I can't

5:30

stand a mayo-based. This kind of thing.

5:33

I love macaroni salad, but something about potato

5:35

salad grosses me out. Okay. We're

5:38

not asking about macarons. You know, we're not. Also,

5:40

I feel the reverse. I feel the

5:43

reverse. Potato salad is disgusting. Baked

5:45

potato is the worst form of potato. I

5:48

love cold potatoes, no one. Alright. Potatoes

5:50

are not meant to be cold. You

5:54

got me a bake. I

5:56

usually go for the one that's less healthy. Update

6:00

the potato all the way! I love

6:02

This is what listen to most. Goes.

6:05

Sour to both of those shows

6:07

9:30

good amount of state type

9:32

places in recent months. That.

9:36

Detail is not as prevalent as he used to be.

9:38

It is not on a lot of. decide

9:43

to tell me that say that it's

9:45

sights on attitude you see you see

9:47

potato wedges you see for their version

9:49

of home fries with am i being

9:51

of bugs that you have to usually

9:54

say to you do a baked potato

9:56

video mash do i want a burger

9:58

last night my buddy That's

10:01

a great spot if you've never been there. And

10:04

the lobster comes with french fries. And I go, can

10:06

I get a baked potato with that? Because I was

10:08

trying to just be sort of healthy. And the guy's

10:11

like, yeah, we don't do it. I

10:13

have also, here's the other pain in the ass with

10:15

a baked potato. I've been to restaurants, this is bad

10:17

shit, but it's true. I have been to restaurants and

10:19

said, can I have a baked potato? And they go,

10:22

we don't make them before this time. Like,

10:25

because they take so long. They're

10:27

like, we won't do it until like the shift is

10:29

here at five o'clock. Yeah, but it doesn't make me

10:31

a lot of CLC that goes into baking a potato,

10:33

right? You just toss it, the macaroni salad. Macaroni salad

10:35

is now on any menu but

10:37

a diner. Potato salad. Oh, sorry,

10:39

potato salad. Is that on any menu but

10:42

a... That's true, that's true. Deli? Deli?

10:45

What menu? Diner? I

10:47

don't know, diner, deli, that's two places. Deli

10:49

menu? Yeah,

10:51

if you go to like, Katz's or something. We're

10:53

not Katz's, but if you go to like, Second Avenue deli, they have

10:55

potato salad. Okay. So, what I'm

10:57

saying is sit down deli where you can eat. Okay. You

11:00

know... Deli, katestin. Yeah,

11:02

like a Jewish or Italian deli where you can sit down

11:04

and eat or whatever, which was one of the battles we

11:06

did when we were gone. That was a good one, man.

11:08

I saw that. Anyway, they

11:10

have potato salad, diners will have potato salad. Also,

11:13

potato salad is one of those

11:15

side dishes that sneaks into, I

11:17

don't want to say fancy, but

11:19

some more niche, maybe

11:22

a little high-end type of restaurants, because they'll

11:24

do a variation of a potato salad. Well,

11:26

anything could be elevated. But it is. But

11:29

it's not the needle in my head. Well, you're not going

11:31

to say that with macaroni salad and coleslaw, but potato salad.

11:33

I oft have fine dining,

11:35

and I do not see

11:38

potato salad. I

11:42

can't stand the male-based ones, but I love a good German.

11:45

You know what I mean? I

11:47

love German. I spit it in your face. Really? You

11:50

like the male-based ones? Oh, I'll lose your food. Yeah.

11:54

Let's make something clear, right? It's the same exact food, right?

11:56

It's the same exact food. It's the same exact food. It's

11:58

the same exact food. It's the same exact food. So

12:01

I'm not saying one is better than the other, but why do

12:03

you find one on, you know, to charge

12:05

more for one? Wait, why do

12:07

I not like the German? No, no, no,

12:09

I'm sorry. The baked potato and the potatoes

12:11

out is coming from the exact same core

12:13

food. I like both. It's the preparation that

12:16

sets it apart. Oh,

12:18

dude, you don't fuck prepped. Because the excitement of

12:20

the preparation of the baked potato, okay, you're getting

12:22

that same type and it's so solid, like a

12:24

brick. You're getting it wrapped in that foil. They

12:26

split it open, okay? You've

12:29

still got the skin on it and then

12:31

they put cold salad cream in there with

12:33

the chives and bacon and then you can

12:35

eat out of its own body, like it's

12:37

its own bowl. No. That's wild

12:39

because if you leave a little room in there, you just carve it

12:42

out the potato. First of all, you can pick it up and you

12:44

snap right into it. First of all, what

12:48

it takes to put a potato salad together,

12:50

it is such time and—

12:52

What does it take? Well, hold on. I

12:54

was going to say. It's

12:56

such time and care and love. There's

12:59

a reason why. Dude, potato

13:01

salad is like

13:03

a tradition dish. Like people will say,

13:06

you know, when I

13:08

go to—I'm coming to the picnic, of course

13:10

I'm bringing my potato salad. Like it is

13:12

a dish that people make. They're

13:15

known for their potato salad. I mean, a great

13:17

potato salad, it can be amazing. And

13:20

it takes a lot of effort. It takes a lot of effort.

13:22

He is where the fault is going to come in for you.

13:25

The association for potato salad

13:27

for most of the population

13:30

and probably the most popular

13:33

variation of potato salad is

13:36

he's done ganache stuff in May. That's

13:39

the deli one. That's your standard one. That's the one

13:41

I put. A dollar fifty a pound. You get the

13:43

whole thing. I thought it was gross. Sometimes it's good.

13:45

But like— Yeah, it's— And

13:48

that's why no one's like, oh, let me think

13:50

about this person's famous potato salad. But

13:52

here's the thing, dude. You go into

13:55

any supermarket that's not like

13:57

a very— Most

14:00

supermarkets, I'll put it that way. You

14:03

go into most supermarkets, there are these,

14:07

dude, most supermarkets in the deli counter case where they

14:09

have the salads and stuff, they'll have like three types

14:11

of potato salad. They'll have

14:13

the one you're talking about, which I like the

14:15

whatever, then they'll have the one with egg and

14:17

stuff, and then they'll have the one with like

14:19

bacon and sour cream and everything. Like most places

14:21

where you get my potato salad, they're gonna have

14:24

a variation, they're gonna have options. But

14:27

I'm telling you something, dude, for me

14:30

potato, there is nothing, let

14:33

me read this, just, just, just, just

14:36

kind of, Craig, this is a

14:38

bad comparison. These two would

14:40

typically be served together at most barbecues.

14:43

Slaw versus potato salad, or be,

14:45

Craig, we

14:47

don't care. Oh. The

14:53

audacity. Oh. Never

14:58

trust anything in a restaurant made with

15:00

mayonnaise. I don't understand it

15:02

with the prepped potato. Isn't

15:04

this a fascinating realization or observation?

15:07

The baked potato has less

15:10

prep time, right? You just take in a whole freaking

15:12

potato, maybe you wash it. It takes like an hour

15:14

though. Right, right, right. Prepped. Sure,

15:16

right. You're washing a potato quickly, and you're wrapping

15:18

it in the morning, and you're setting it down,

15:20

all right? That's all you're doing.

15:24

There's nothing to it. It's the most basic

15:26

thing you can do. You're heating up a

15:28

whole potato. You're

15:30

trying to elevate it by splitting it open and putting

15:33

all the, you know, the dressing, all the stuff in

15:35

there, right? And that's what elevates that. Like if that

15:37

wasn't in there, that was in a restaurant, and you're

15:39

like, no, just bring in one whole warm potato and

15:41

you eat it. It would be like,

15:43

what do you, is that a joke? You're just

15:45

gonna make me a whole heated up potato, and

15:47

that's the meal. Right, right. No, no, so that's

15:49

everything, right? So it gets elevated afterwards, right? The

15:51

prep time for you is harder. You

15:54

gotta peel, wash and peel, and then- No, you don't have

15:56

to peel. I like a skin-on potato salad. I'm not a

15:58

guy. Okay, but you still have the danger salad. I've

16:00

seen them also in

16:03

discs. Somebody

16:14

in your life makes

16:16

a potato salad. That is

16:19

so good and so incredible

16:21

that you called me Molly. Yes,

16:23

and said you have to try this.

16:26

And I tried to figure out there was a

16:28

way that she had bacon and mashed squambees. So

16:31

I got salad at the bar. That's

16:33

how good it was. The second time she made it, you had

16:35

it? It wasn't as good as it was. It was very good

16:37

still. But I'm telling you something. Have

16:39

you ever ever had a baked potato

16:41

that made you do that? That

16:43

made you go, I got a call about

16:45

the baked potato. That's a good point because

16:47

what you gain in the potato salad is

16:49

the ability of many different recipes. And

16:52

for the most part, a baked potato is

16:54

a baked potato. Now, the point I was

16:56

trying to make was more goes into the

16:58

premise. More elbow greaser. And

17:01

you got to, you know, but then

17:03

then we're in as

17:05

the baked potato gets elevated from

17:07

just, you know, you're you're

17:09

dicing the potato and then you're dressing

17:11

it down. No pun intended. You're just

17:14

tossing it into this

17:16

manual based kind of thing and just mixing

17:18

it around. The

17:20

baked potato, the potato is, you're dressing up a

17:23

bit. But in this one, the slice

17:25

of the cake apart, you're throwing it and you're

17:27

tossing it in his own swine. No. That's

17:31

not. You know, wouldn't

17:33

you have three hours? No, no. You want

17:35

to read what percentage? Listen,

17:40

here's what I told you. Potato with you. All

17:43

right. Most potato dishes

17:46

that are worth their salt is

17:49

27:54

it's the same the basic idea

27:56

is always the best idea none

27:58

of my eyesight We need 12

28:00

potatoes, you have potatoes, here's that, open potatoes, I

28:03

know why potatoes, but all different

28:05

ingredients. I know why. The twice baked potato is still

28:07

all the same. I know why, I know why, I

28:09

know why. And it is my biggest strike against the

28:11

baked potato. I know why there's a difference

28:13

here. Because my biggest problem with

28:15

the baked potato is this. First

28:19

of all, you have to make it 1000% unhealthy

28:22

to even want to eat

28:24

it. Nobody, if

28:26

you're eating a regular old baked potato, which is salty,

28:28

whatever. I eat a baked sweet potato all the time,

28:30

I love it. I will eat a baked sweet potato

28:32

too, but I think most people when they talk baked

28:35

potato, they're talking the russet, whatever. If

28:38

you're eating it with anything more than salt and pepper, or

28:40

I'm sorry, if you're eating it with just salt and pepper,

28:42

you're doing that because you're like, I don't want to eat

28:44

like a bad for me potato thing right now. Most

28:47

of the time, if you want to really hammer

28:49

a baked potato, you are covering that thing and stuff

28:51

that's bad for you. Fine, whatever, I'm not saying potato's

28:54

healthy for you. When

28:56

you do that, the

28:58

same thing always happens. You

29:00

got some great bites at the top of that thing,

29:03

and eventually you get to the bottom bites, and

29:05

they're just potato, and it sucks,

29:08

and that's where I'd place my potatoes, and they have

29:10

the same thing. Because the way

29:12

it's been filled is mashing the inside, and

29:14

then you're just scooping it out with a

29:17

spoon. No, you don't get to change the

29:19

baked potato from the twice baked potato because

29:21

of the way that you choose to approach

29:23

eating it. It doesn't matter. No,

29:25

I... It doesn't matter. That'll just be true. I

29:29

ration my stuff in the baked potato. You can't ration

29:31

it, it's all ducked on top. I push it to

29:33

one side, and then I take a scoop in the

29:35

board, and I take the other side, and

29:38

I get evil bites throughout the whole potato. Just because you

29:40

haven't figured that out doesn't mean that... I've never said the

29:42

same before. I've never said the same

29:44

before. Your mother's ass. I don't believe that

29:46

for two seconds. Even if I don't... I

29:49

don't believe that for two seconds. I don't

29:51

believe for two seconds that you... You just

29:53

shove the stuff to the side. What about

29:55

if I just dollop another thing on it?

29:57

What is it now, buddy? going

30:00

to the ER. Go to the

30:02

ER. You're eating half a tub

30:04

of shell cream at this point.

30:06

It's so much. You're eating a

30:08

bowl of mayonnaise. It's not. You're

30:11

eating a bowl of mayonnaise or

30:13

oil. If you do the

30:15

right proportion of mayo, in

30:17

my opinion, if you make the potato shell properly with

30:20

mayo, you are not getting anywhere near that intake that

30:22

you're getting out of the cell. If you do the

30:24

right proportion of toppings on the big potato, anyone can

30:26

make that over. But the right proportion of toppings is

30:28

not going to get you through that whole potato. Why

30:30

can't you just throw a little bit more on it?

30:33

You could. You could not have bacon bits and

30:35

shredded cheese right here. You can throw more

30:37

on it. So you're creating a problem where there

30:39

is none is what I'm saying. No, no. What

30:42

I'm saying is this. I'm saying that you, because

30:44

you really hammered that idea of the restaurant baked

30:46

potato, of the way they prep it all.

30:48

And what I'm saying to you is every

30:51

time I've had that in a restaurant, I,

30:54

I do that style of the experience

30:56

I've had, I started getting the loaded

30:58

potato. I always sidestep that experience. As

31:00

a young, I'd

31:02

say my teens, not a young chum, but

31:04

in my teens I stopped getting the loaded

31:07

big potato when my parents would take me

31:09

out to a restaurant because I was like,

31:11

I'm tired of it halfway through becoming just

31:13

a baked potato. You don't get it like

31:16

it's not. What about this? You

31:18

love the skin, right? Me too. Why couldn't

31:20

you then take a knife to it, slice

31:23

the potato and then dip it on the top

31:25

and eat it? I'm not afraid of

31:27

the skin. I don't know if there would be

31:29

a half of potato with nothing. What you hear

31:31

what I'm saying? No. It solves

31:33

your problem right there. Okay. You have

31:35

a baked potato. It's loaded on top, right? You take

31:38

a knife and a fork and you kind of do

31:40

for the potato. Instead of eating it like it's a

31:42

bowl, you cut it. Then you spear that

31:44

in your fork, you dip it on top, you put

31:46

it in your mouth. And as you go, you're

31:49

eating it and you're getting equal rations of

31:51

the topic. I mean, look, you guys not

31:53

just blow your balls off? No,

31:57

you could, but the whole point is

31:59

to scoot to

34:00

mash it with a fork basically. Like you want

34:02

it truly fluffy. And what I do is because

34:04

I'm home, I

34:07

get the foil completely off of it,

34:11

then I cut it in half, then I do the

34:13

smell, and then you're cutting it with a knife and

34:15

fork and you're getting salt and pepper. So

34:17

you can do that with the other knife too?

34:19

In a restaurant, which is the only place I've

34:22

ever gotten a loaded baked potato because I gotta

34:24

be honest with you, if I was in someone's

34:26

home and they were making loaded baked potatoes, I

34:28

would feel like I was in a crack house.

34:31

I would be like, I have to get out

34:33

of here. Quite the opposite. I would be like,

34:35

get out of here. Nobody

34:37

ever does this. It

34:40

is barf. I don't even think they want

34:42

to bake a potato. That's the thing with

34:44

a baked potato for me. I don't think

34:46

about baked potato. I don't think to make it.

34:48

I don't have it. I don't think it just comes

34:51

across my desk and

34:53

I'm like, whoa, I'll just only just make it. Do you know what

34:55

I used to do? No. You know how you

34:57

used to do it, Wendy? Wendy's

35:00

has baked potatoes and because they

35:02

bake potatoes, they would give

35:04

you the sour cream in this little like

35:06

pack. Would you now say another

35:09

thing solving your own argument? No, no, no.

35:11

It was a packet, but it was a

35:13

weird packet. It was cold. They kept it

35:15

really cold and it was in this like

35:17

triangular thing. It was

35:19

great. It was great. It was a great perfect amount of powder.

35:21

Yeah, I remember that. I know the

35:24

triangular thing. I would ask for some of those sour creams

35:26

with my fries and

35:28

then I would take the sour cream and

35:30

I would line the french fry with it

35:32

and then oh my god and dude I

35:35

remember when I first started doing that Wendy,

35:37

I remember a couple of the drive-thru people

35:39

being like, what? Nobody thought of this. Great.

35:44

I love sour cream. Oh man. Want to think outside the

35:47

box? Baking potato has some

35:49

heft to it. Somebody, you

35:52

know, comes in and robs the restaurant. It's

35:54

a weapon. You know what I'm

35:56

saying? Just out of the box, you know.

35:58

I will tell you this. As a sandwich man,

36:00

I love potato salad. No, me and Ocarson

36:02

do it together? No. Me and Ocarson sometimes have

36:04

deli days. We'll go to the supermarket together and we'll buy rolls, we'll buy all

36:06

kinds of lunch meats. I've been pretty good.

36:08

Yeah, and we'll buy potato salad. We did it when we were at the

36:10

beach. Nobody but me and Jay really liked it. But whatever. So

36:13

we're going to do a little bit of a So

36:30

we'll do that and you get the potato salad

36:32

and then as you're eating your sandwich, I

36:35

start scooping the potato salad on this

36:37

sandwich. And now the sandwich that

36:39

does that mayo on it, you're getting a bite

36:41

that suddenly does have some mayo with potato salad.

36:43

You know what I'm saying? I don't know

36:46

what they put in it, but that mayo has that

36:48

tang to it? It's because it's probably

36:50

the salt. You add salt for you, but if

36:52

you add too much, I agree. That

36:55

mayo has potato salad. I don't

36:57

know what they say. It's tangy. And man, I

36:59

got to be honest. I

37:01

don't know if I like. I

37:06

can't mean one thing that's tangy that

37:08

I enjoy. What

37:11

do you think about tangy? I don't think anything's going

37:13

to tangy. I don't think potato

37:15

salad is tangy. I think you're choosing the

37:18

tang. Yeah, I don't know about that. I

37:21

think that's a poorly made potato salad. It's

37:23

a little bit of a barbed, tart cherries,

37:25

gooseberries, cranberries. That's

37:27

more tart, is it not? It's

37:31

the vinegar. It's the vinegar that's doing it

37:33

probably, right? Cheese, lemon, cheese. I

37:36

don't know, man. I don't... Tang.

37:41

I hear the word tang, and I'm like, eh.

37:43

Potato salad shouldn't have tang to it. It's

37:45

improperly made. It does. No,

37:48

I'm saying that's a bad... It's poorly made if

37:50

it does, is what I'm saying. What is a

37:52

tangy flavor? A tangy flavor or

37:54

a sell is one that's sharp, especially

37:57

a flavor like that of a lemon juice or

37:59

a sell. The

40:00

potato salad, the old damn name. Wow, there you

40:02

go. Salad, I'm a

40:05

little mayo slut. Okay. The

40:07

potatoes look like eating bricks, okay. Salad,

40:10

I'm a mayo slut. Okay. Time's turning in.

40:12

Lunch potato salad, dinner baked potato. That's

40:14

actually a really good point that we haven't discussed.

40:18

Yours is dinner, mine is lunch. Potato

40:20

salad with barbecue, but the baked potato is steak. I

40:22

asked you which one. I said, which one you prefer.

40:24

That's what I said. That's the most

40:26

funny thing you prefer. The

40:28

potato salad with barbecue, baked potato, it ain't

40:31

nothing. Nothing. An

40:33

average baked potato is better than an average potato salad,

40:36

but a really good potato salad blows my

40:38

balls off. That's a very good point. That's

40:42

a very, par for the course, I think, I

40:44

do think a baked potato is better than a

40:46

potato salad. But the

40:48

best potato salad is going to be better than the

40:50

best baked potato. Yes. Baked potato

40:53

is divine. What

40:56

planet do you live on? It's a thing, you

40:58

know what I love? Canned corn. Nothing

41:03

is as good as canned corn. Many

41:06

things are as good as the baked

41:08

potato or the canned corn. Potato salad,

41:11

it's a creation. Give

41:14

me the definition of divine. Let's

41:16

see if I can even read

41:19

this. Hoved

41:25

from or like God or a god. Excellent.

41:29

Okay. I

41:31

can see you mean this potato is excellent.

41:35

That's not what they meant, and you know it. It's

41:37

a god one. I

41:40

meant the god one. Baked potatoes are

41:42

a bit abandoned when we discovered french

41:44

fries. I don't disagree. Your

41:46

disgrace if you choose potato salad

41:49

over a heartwarming baked potato. It's

41:52

orphanage food for Christ's sake. That heartwarming

41:54

made me talk about that big pat

41:56

of butter in there. Some

41:58

People didn't even put the salad in there. Look at

42:01

home when I was little detail just my

42:03

or will I go to the other footage

42:05

movies go get a big us and vases

42:07

said. About

42:09

like Oliver Twist. Votes wins

42:11

over the border I satellite

42:13

42:15

butter and ah, I.

42:19

I. Say. Butter.

42:22

Sauce Pepper. it's not. it's not bad,

42:24

but it's never as he was first

42:26

choice idol thing. For.

42:29

The guaranteed Mcdonalds is diverse.

42:32

Okay to have never had a bad the potato.

42:35

But. Have had some very as deputy

42:37

the South Central Fifteen Whatever. Seen as

42:39

most smokers that statement is not sure

42:41

42:45

42:54

42:56

43:02

what are the potato salad that I'm

43:04

idolizes without? First, I much like the

43:06

others. his argument of. The. Desk potato

43:08

salad is going to be better than the best

43:10

present A though. I. One hundred percent

43:13

agree the worst. Potato salad is good.

43:15

It. Is. Could be so much worse

43:17

in the were spaghetti that. I've

43:19

had shitty experiences with that bullshit people

43:22

call salad that I've had with a

43:24

43:44

angel with. An. Underscore

43:46

43:48

43:50

43:54

kinda sounded grouse. Obviously shelves are not

43:56

red mail and sugar in cold food

43:58

44:01

44:03

44:05
