00:00Very salty, like extremely salty.
00:06I might not be able to get my rings on tomorrow.
00:08Hi, I'm Meredith Marks,
00:11and this is Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
00:15In terms of luxury goods, I think I have expensive taste.
00:19I mean, I'm cautiously optimistic
00:21that I'm gonna be really good at it.
00:23♪ Ba-ba-ba-ba-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da ♪
00:28Okay, here we have two bath bombs.
00:31For those of you who don't know, the bath is my thing.
00:34It's my favorite place to spend my time.
00:37This one is made from a mold that has, like, leaves on it.
00:42I mean, maybe this has, like, THC in it.
00:46Right?
00:48Cause it does look like it could be a cannabis leaf maybe.
00:51I don't know.
00:52And this one is more like a psychedelic,
00:57tie-dye kind of vibe.
01:00I mean, I would probably use either.
01:03I like the smell of the Maybe Weed one better.
01:10It's a little milder.
01:12This one's a little too strong for me.
01:15So I'm going with this one.
01:20Oh, see?
01:22♪ Ba, ba, ba-ba-ba ♪
01:25♪ Ba-ba-da, ba ♪
01:28So, here we have two hats
01:30with what looks like a fox pom-pom.
01:35This one I think is raccoon,
01:36I think this one is fox.
01:38And I think this is a cashmere wool blend.
01:43This one might be 100% cashmere
01:46or maybe a higher percentage.
01:48So, I think this one has a higher
01:50Count on the cashmere.
01:52The fox pom-pom is going to be a more expensive pom-pom
01:57than the raccoon, but it's pretty insignificant.
02:00Unless this might be faux and that might be the issue
02:03and this is real.
02:04This is real for sure.
02:06This, I'm not 100% sure if it's real or faux.
02:10I think this one is more expensive.
02:12Oh, I stink.
02:16$35 for this one?
02:19Everybody should buy this, like $35, wow.
02:28So here we have two glasses of sparkling wine,
02:32perhaps it's champagne, I'm not sure.
02:34I don't know where it's from,
02:35but we're going to taste them and see.
02:37This one looks like maybe a drop more pink,
02:40but they look pretty close.
02:42I don't have any incline without tasting these
02:44of which one would be more expensive.
02:46So let's give it a go.
02:50This is nice.
02:52It's dry, it's not too fruity.
02:54This is a little more of a yellow, golden kind of tone,
02:58whereas this one seems to have a little more pink to it.
03:04This one might be like a glass of sugar
03:05for some reason, I have a feeling.
03:12This one is not sweet either,
03:14but it has a little more harsh of an aftertaste to it.
03:17This one's a little smoother.
03:23I'd have to go with this one.
03:25I don't drink a ton of sparkling wine
03:27because the acidity is a little bit of an issue for me,
03:31so I might not be as expert on this,
03:32but I think I'm a lap.
03:37Boo!
03:38Oh well.
03:40♪ Ba ba ba da ba da ♪
03:42♪ Ba ba da ba da da ♪
03:45Okay, we've got potato chips here.
03:47I don't eat a lot of junk food,
03:49but this is actually one of the things I do enjoy.
03:53Oh no, let's see, I'm gonna start with the one
03:55that I think is gonna be better.
04:00Does this have like a hint of truffle to it?
04:06Okay.
04:08These are great.
04:09Let's see how we do here.
04:14So this one, it just,
04:16it tastes like it's a little more processed.
04:19It doesn't taste like it's just a fresh sliced potato
04:22that's been fried.
04:24Whereas this one has like a little hint of truffle to it.
04:29It tastes like it was, you know, hand cut and fried.
04:33It doesn't taste real processed to me.
04:35So I'm going with this one.
04:39I know my chips.
04:41Apparently better than my champagnes.
04:42Ha ha ha.
04:49So here we have two different perfumes.
04:53This one's in a shorter bottle and clear.
04:57And we're going to smell them.
05:00Oh, there we go.
05:01The cap's a little tight.
05:02Okay.
05:03So this seems to be a little bit of a heavier bottle.
05:07You can see like the glass at the bottom is thicker.
05:11And I mean, they feel very close in weight,
05:14but this is obviously larger.
05:16So I think this is a little bit of nicer packaging.
05:26Okay.
05:26This is not too fruity,
05:31which is positive,
05:33but it's going to take a second.
05:34I'm going to spray the other one on this arm
05:36while we wait for a moment.
05:45Ooh.
05:47This has a very unusual scent to it.
05:51Let that one air out for a second too.
05:59This one's more expensive.
06:00Okay.
06:10So here we have two different kinds of caviar
06:13with some blinis for me to try it on.
06:15I can probably tell you which one is more expensive
06:18without even tasting it, just by looking at it,
06:21because I do know caviar pretty well.
06:31Okay.
06:32It's clean.
06:33It's definitely a good caviar.
06:36It's not Meredith Marks caviar,
06:39but it's very good.
06:41Let's try the other side.
06:50Okay.
06:52Very salty.
06:54Like extremely salty.
06:57I might not be able to get my rings on tomorrow.
07:01You can see that it's like a larger size ball.
07:06It's not as black.
07:08This one's much smaller.
07:10There's not really much oil to it, you know,
07:12and it kind of just is mealy more than anything.
07:16This is a more expensive one.
07:22That one I could have confirmed on my own.
07:23I mean, that salt is a lot of salt.
07:26I should have taken a smaller bite.
07:31♪ Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba ♪
07:34Some sunglasses here.
07:36So these are kind of like a beige-y,
07:40almost like a, I mean, obviously they're plastic,
07:42but it's like almost a mother-of-pearl vibe
07:46with these couple of rings going through the sides,
07:49making them a little funky.
07:51Different on this side than on that side.
07:54And these are orange.
08:02I don't see a huge difference here on the quality
08:06because, I don't know, sunglasses are sunglasses,
08:10but I do think like the way these are hinged
08:13is really nice and the design is pretty.
08:18So I'm just gonna go with the orange for kicks
08:23because I really don't know.
08:27Oh, yay!
08:28♪ Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba ♪
08:34Here we go, snow globes.
08:36This is very fitting for Salt Lake City.
08:41This one's way more snowy,
08:44but I think this one lights up.
08:48This is obviously larger, a lot less glitter.
08:52This one twists and turns in the center and lights up.
08:57This one does not.
08:59But this hardware on the top looks very plastic cheap.
09:06And this bottom does not exactly seem very high-end.
09:12This, even though it's smaller and doesn't light up,
09:15better snow.
09:17And I don't know, sometimes things that spin
09:20just take away the luxury of it all.
09:23I'm going with this one.
09:24I think this one is more expensive.
09:29Yay!
09:31So I got six out of eight correct.
09:34I strive for perfection,
09:35so I'm a little disappointed in myself.
09:37But maybe next time.
09:41Tune in for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City
09:43on Peacock and Bravo on Wednesday nights.
