The Food Price Is Wrong: Who Actually Knows What Groceries Cost?

How much does a regular bag of Doritos cost these days?

Four dollars? Six dollars? Do you need to refinance your house just to buy a bag of chips?

This week on Stay Outta My Fridge, Matt, Megh and Iyla are putting their food-price knowledge to the ultimate test in THE FOOD PRICE IS WRONG!

Three family members. Four rounds. One final championship challenge. And absolutely no confidence that anybody knows what they're doing.

The rules are simple: Everyone guesses the price of a food item. The closest guess earns points, and an exact answer earns even more.

Sounds easy, right?

Well, things get interesting when a regular bag of Doritos starts a debate, a Five Guys cheeseburger costs more than anyone expected, and the family discovers an entirely different world of luxury foods.

We're talking $1,000 ice cream, a $2,000 pizza and a $5,000 burger.

Yes. A five-thousand-dollar burger.

And somehow, that's not even the final challenge.

• Round 1: Grocery Store Reality Check — Doritos, peanut butter, eggs, Oreos and ice cream
• Round 2: Fast Food Frenzy — Big Macs, Crunchwraps, McNuggets, Blizzards and Five Guys
• Round 3: What the Heck Does That Cost? — Wagyu steak, luxury water and some truly ridiculous luxury food game prices
• Round 4: The Grocery Receipt From Hell — Can anyone correctly estimate the cost of movie night, taco night and breakfast?
• The Ultimate Price Is Wrong Finale— One grocery cart, three final guesses and a championship on the line

Along the way, there are questionable guesses, family arguments, surprising prices and the realization that maybe none of us should be trusted to do the grocery shopping.

Play Along!

You don't need to see anything to participate. Every item and its price are discussed during the show.

Before we reveal each answer, make your own guess and see whether you can beat Matt, Megh and Iyla.

Then tell us:

What's one food you used to buy all the time that has become ridiculously overpriced?

We want to hear your answers!

WHICH CAME FIRST? THE ULTIMATE FAMILY FOOD TRIVIA SHOWDOWN

How well do you REALLY know your favorite foods?

You probably know what an Oreo tastes like.

You probably know the difference between Doritos and Pringles.

And you've definitely heard of McDonald's and Taco Bell.

But do you know which one came FIRST?

This week on Stay Outta My Fridge, Matt is joined by Avery, Iyla, and Megh for a family food-history challenge that sounds easy until the questions start coming.

The rules are simple.

Two famous foods.

One question.

Which came first?

But there's a catch.

Everyone has to bet points based on how confident they are in their answer.

Get it right, and you earn those points.

Get it wrong, and you lose them.

Suddenly, being absolutely certain about something you know nothing about becomes a very expensive mistake.

And because nobody knows the correct answers ahead of time, the entire family is playing for real.

THE CHALLENGES

Oreo vs. Chocolate Chip Cookie

Pop-Tarts vs. Toaster Strudel

Doritos vs. Pringles

Reese's vs. M&M's

Hostess Cupcakes vs. Twinkies

Cheez-It vs. Lucky Charms

McDonald's vs. Taco Bell

Snickers vs. Kit Kat

Jif vs. Nutella

Candy Corn vs. Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar

And then comes the championship question:

Milky Way vs. 3 Musketeers

Eleven questions. Four competitors. One champion.

WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS THEIR FOOD HISTORY?

Along the way, the family discovers that some of the foods we think have been around forever aren't nearly as old as we imagined.

There are surprising answers, confident guesses, questionable strategies, and a few moments where knowing absolutely nothing might have been the better approach.

PLAY ALONG!

You don't need to see anything to join the competition.

Listen to each matchup, make your guess before the answer is revealed, and keep track of your score.

Then let us know:

How many did you get right out of 11?

Which answer surprised you the most?

And could you have beaten Matt, Avery, Iyla, and Megh?

She Predicted the First Korean Snack… Somehow!

What happens when you give a family a mystery box full of South Korean snacks and absolutely no idea what they're about to eat?

Apparently, somebody becomes a snack psychic.

This week on Stay Outta My Fridge, Matt is joined by Lo and Iyla for a South Korean SnackCrate adventure. Before the first snack even comes out, Iyla makes a prediction that sounds completely ridiculous.

Churros.

South Korean food. Churros.

Surely not, right?

Well, things get interesting pretty quickly.

From crunchy ramen you're supposed to smash instead of cook to spicy rice cake snacks, fruity gummies, savory sticks, mysterious chewy candy, and a cream cheese brownie, the family works through ten snacks while attempting to agree on which ones are actually good.

In this episode:

• A mystery-country guessing game featuring France and Brazil.
• Iyla's surprisingly accurate churro prediction.
• Korean ramen that gets smashed instead of boiled.
• A spicy snack that doesn't survive the taste test.
• The great grape-flavor disagreement.
• A serious investigation into whether something is gum or taffy.
• The family's individual Top 3 rankings.
• One overall winning snack.

And yes, somehow churros become the biggest story of a South Korean snack box.

Join the conversation

What's the strangest snack you've ever tried? Is there a country whose snacks we absolutely need to try next?
