    I think that just naming every spice that exists on the planet is a bit cheaty, should be restricted in number of guesses.

    It’s not in the main playlist for the Skills challenge

    7:09 Does anyone know what that blue flour looking stuff is? The only thing that I can think of to get that color is butterfly pea, but I've only seen it as whole flowers and not ground into a powder.

    Georgian Food and Wine is incredible. There is a Georgian place in Bishkek that is phenomenal and they make their own wine as well.

    I know this was years ago, but I would have liked then to do the same blends to see who did best

    Why do you boys all act like the worst shame in the world is to lose to Barry? .is he the lesser of your group? Naw, it's jealousy

    Didn't Ben actually in a later episode taken away Barries batch?

    I think it's so funny how Chef's always describe their dishes like a soldier responding to their commander lmfao.

    I'm waiting to see Mummy sewing your badges on your little sashes. Looking forward to the celebration ceremony.

    RIGHTFULLY RESCINDED.

    I don’t know why but, the way Barry holds his fork really bothers me lol

    Ebbers is there anyway you can share the amounts of each spice for the Khumeli Suneli? I have looked online and they were missing some of the spices you had in your mix. Thanks for sharing foods/spices from different parts of the world WITH the world!

    Interesting to see the guy who called salt a spice twice won the spiceology badge.

  15. @huntforagegrow

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    Wouldn't it be more fair if all the spice blends were the same. Ben admitted himself that they get harder and harder. That's not really fair.

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    come on MIKE pull your head out or your ass..do better.. try harder. you were beaten by BARRY who acts and thinks like a 2 year old… SHAME

    Ohhh.. Jamie's good at catching lol. Cracked up when he threw the dice back at Ben and Ben was like.. x|
    Ah.. so this is the infamous spice episode o-o having seen the one where Barry loses it.. perhaps it should have been given to Mike, who actually deserved it o-o

    I bet Barry can’t re-watch this video

  20. @Thoughtsmith

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    Rewatching this months later, after the whole thing where Barry had his badge revoked and then granted back to him, and it's honestly even weirder that he takes it here just by spamming everything he can think of.

  21. @konpateras2486

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    now im gonna go to the chicken and eggs video to see that undeserved badge ripped away.

  22. @Camof1990

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    Watching this again after Barry had his 'Spiceology' badge revoked.

  23. @dagensovelove709

    January 1, 2024 at 11:15 pm

    Poor Barry was so happy for winning this badge! 🙈 😂
