Calorie Countdown Challenge

Calorie Countdown Challenge is the 1045th episode of Good Mythical Morning. In this episode, Rhett and Link play a game of "snack blackjack", which is just like regular blackjack, but with snacks.

Plot
Rhett and Link asked the Mythical Beasts for questions about snack advice. The chosen question was from Kayla Pagan on Twitter: Who knows their snacks better, Rhett or Link? This leads to another instalment of All You Had To Do Was Ask (powered by Amazon Echo).

Link takes Kayla's question to mean how well do Rhett and Link know the caloric values of snacks. To answer the question they play the game "Snack Blackjack". The aim of the game is for Rhett and Link to make snacks of a certain caloric value, or as close to it as possible without going over, from the food provided for that round. They are each "dealt" a starter food and they can then choose from the rest of the food items. They use the Amazon Echo's ability to track caloric value to add up the total calorie value of the food they've added to their snack. Stevie acts as the dealer for the game. She sets the target calorie count for the round, which appears on a blue chip. If the caloric value is the same or under the limit, a green chip appears. If the caloric value is over the limit, a red chip appears, and a buzzer sounds. They do three rounds and the overall winner gets a prize.
