I think that goes back to the days when there were "malt shops". Wendy's Frosties are like malted milkshakes. A blast from the past! (Not that I was alive during the days of malt shops). 😉
Yes Ísland is the Icelandic name for Iceland but it doesn't annoy us that others call it Iceland, we also have Icelandic names for other countries :) btw Britain in Icelandic is Bretland
I just commented that In Farsi aka Persian we pronounce Iceland as Eesland and we write it ایسلند . So I guess we have a very accurate pronunciation of it !!
The Icelandic name _Ísland_ has the same meaning as the English name: _ís_ is ‘ice’ and _land_ is ‘country, land’. So the English name is technically a calque. The English word that happens to be spelt _island_ in English, on the other hand, has nothing to do with ice or Iceland - the s in that word has never been pronounced and wasn’t there at all historically. It used to be written _iland_ or _yland_ in Middle English, and in Old English it was _īeg̍land._ That’s a compound of _īeg_ (which meant ‘island’ by itself originally) and _land,_ so it’s really ‘island-land’. The reason it got an s eventually is that it looks so similar to _isle._ The resemblance is coincidental, though - _isle_ was borrowed from French (written _île_ in Modern French) and comes from Latin _insula._ So yeah, _isle, island, Ísland_ and _Iceland_ are a bit confusing, but it all fits together somehow.
Here I'm sitting, muching on the heavenly goodies you sent to me💖😋 thank you again😍 Ís means ice, so Ísland=Iceland. Jarðarber are strawberries, hindber are raspberries. The blue fronted kókómjólk is with less sugar. Stjörnupopp=star popcorn. I will keep on as I watch, I was too eager to send you the boxes to explain everything😂🤣
Yaaay! So glad you finally got our box back to you! Hope you are enjoying trying everything! Thank you for the notes. It's really great to have our questions answered!
I've been watching you guys for years and really enjoy your videos. My husband always asks when we are going to get one of your boxes so I ordered one for his birthday. It just came a few days ago and we have been enjoying a treat each night and will continue to do so until his birthday. So fun and I can't wait to try another.
Wendy’s frosty is a big part of my childhood. ☺️ Definitely dipped the fries in it. I was a cheerleader in high school and after games we would go to McDonald’s. We all dipped our fries in their sweet and sour sauce. That’s a game changer too.
I use to love the Brach's Bridge mix. It was a mix is a type of snack mix or candy consisting of nuts, fruits, and "cremes" covered in chocolate. Some common ingredients in bridge mix include peanuts, raisins, macadamia nuts, jujubes, malt, fruits, nougat, and licorice. I love that you could a few different items and mix it up a bit.
When I lived in USA Ann 1996 I loved Brachs bridge mix and the chocolate covered jellies were my favourite. I read that they have discontinued the chocolate jellies such a shame.
@@maureenbrown6610 I'm not sure as they made many changes to them. I haven't bought any in years. I see the package once in a while, I pick it, and then put it down. LOL I know they are not as good as they once were.
Oh my gosh! Those ziplocks!! Those colors! Sigh 😍 love those! You’re gonna crack up at the ziplocks I’ve got in this box for you guys! Cause I lost it when I found them 🤣 and I’m glad the box got pushed, because I found a couple more things to add in that I haven’t seen before! And such a great rest of the box! The teas 🥰🥰🥰 I looove a good tea. Brent and I love to sit and brew some lose leaf tea while we have good chats. Love all the wonderful stuff that Rebecca sent! Hoping you all are doing okay. Been thinking of all of you loads. The kiddos and Brent were so sad to hear about your precious Bob. He’s in all our hearts. But still hope you’re doing as good as you can be going through the motions of it all. Sending extra hugs and loves all around. Have such a beautiful weekend and upcoming week ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Oh yes Kate, I knew about the zip lock bags😉😄 and I have never seen those 6L bags before, they are enormous, and I use them so much. I loved this video, thanks and lots of love, Rebekka.
Yaaay thank you so much Rebekka. I thought you might have but i didn't want to assume! Thank you so much for adding them in for me. So glad you enjoyed watching
Hindber is Raspberry (in German Himbeere) and we call Iceland also Island in German not the direct translation Eisland (as in English Iceland), for whatever reason ;-)
Hey Kate and Alex missed you guys I been such a busy 🐝 but I have finally caught up with the missed videos that I couldn’t watch hope you all have a fantastic weekend love you guys 🥰❤️💞💗❣️
Wendy' is a frosty. The first time I had soft serve ice cream it came from Dairy Queen. That is the only kind of ice cream they sold. Next time you come to the USA look for a Dairy Queen.
Ahh yes!!!! That was it, a frosty!! Oh my word! I am so excited to one day try Dairy Queen! I watch them make them on TikTok! Can't believe we've never had one before
I wonder if there's a licorice gene. I adore the stuff. Bought a dark chocolate salted licorice bar not too long back and it was divine. A friend told me it was the stuff of her nightmares. LOL.
2:06 It's a different language. Look at like this. Germany in German is Deutschland, but no one who doesn't speak German calls it that. The Philippines in Tagalog is Ang Pilipinas, but no one who doesn't speak Tagalog would call it that. If you don't speak the language, you aren't expected to say the name of the country in their native language. 4:48 Wendy's Frosty! That means it's probably malted milk, because Wendy's Frosty's are frozen malted milk
I understand why people don't like licorice but I love it. I have never had chocolate covered licorice and I'm not even sure it's sold in America. At least, I've never seen it. Have a good one.
I quit having Wendy’s Frosty when I found out it has a form of plastic in it the USA allows. That’s why it doesn’t melt. You both look great ! 😊. What a nice, thoughtful and interesting box. Your a lucky bunch lol 😂. Gifts 🎁 and great new foods/ candies yummy 😋
This with them could you do trying desserts from around the world season 1 episode 1 on your channel i'm learning to be sensible and patient with people's replies so I will wait sensibly and patiently for your reply to this comment
This with them yes it's me commenting again could you do trying desserts from around the world season 1 episode 1 on your channel reply to this comment at some point
we have tried some in a video before but would be awesome to try more one day!! Think we have a couple videos you could check out if you haven't seen them
Wendy's frosty😘 We love dipping our french fries into the frosty. My poppa calls them frozen malted milk. Which he is right.👍
So good dipping in the fries!! Ah love that!! He is right!

I love that Alex matches the bag of popcorn!!

@2listening1, Welcome to This With Them! Kate and Alex are siblings. They are a lot of fun!

Thank you for clearing that up. We thought it might have been!! How cool!!
@@ThisWithThem you're welcome, I have to send you another German box, I will see what I may find to discover :-)

It would be fun to see u guys trying norweigian🇧🇻 candy.
Thank you guys
Thank you for watching
You're more than welcome
Tornado hit Pickens nc bad
Wendy's Milkshake is called a Frosty. It comes in Chocolate or Vanilla.
Yes that was it! Thank you
@@ThisWithThem You're Welcome

Hiya Alex and Kate thanks for the video GOD BLESS
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed watching
I love wafers and always forget they exist. Added to my shopping list!
You guys! Alex looks like the popcorn bag! Did anyone else see that?
Kate you are right about the Ískex, it is meant to be had with ice cream. Villiköttur=wild cat.
ahh awesome!!
Kate, you never stop surprising me with international treats. I'm not sure how I can do that, considering it's really expensive.

You both look colourful & lovely 💓 I missed Icelandic goodies, they're yum 😋 (minus the licorice 🤭).
Thank you Amine!! Hehe yes definitely 😂
I understand why people don't like licorice but I love it. I have never had chocolate covered licorice and I'm not even sure it's sold in America. At least, I've never seen it. Have a good one.
Very jealous, i do wish i loved it!! Ooo no way! I wonder if you would enjoy chocolate covered liquorice!!
I had it in Iceland, it's epic. Worth a trip just for that.
Today is my birthday so your video is the perfect grift ❤️
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Hope you're having a wonderful day celebrating!!! ♥️
@@ThisWithThem Thank you :) I got a Dairy Queen ice cream cake !!! I just posted a pic of it to my channels community tab !!
In Farsi aka Persian we pronounce Iceland as Eesland and we write it ایسلند
oh awesome!
btw the kókómjólk they are different, the blue one has less sugar and the taste differs from the normal white one.
Wendy’s Frosty. The best
Love Alex’s top !!
😀😀
Wendy's frosty, you have to dip your fries in it! That's the best way to eat it.
Wendy's Frosty. Kind of a malt taste. We always called it Ice land too. Hmmm.
Yes that was it!!!
Same here I am pretty basic vanilla too
haha twins!
This was an awesome video 🤗🤗
Thank you 😀
4:50 Are they called a Frosty ?
Yes that is them!! Thank you
The chocolate milk in the blue pack has less sugar-sykurskert.
Ah i see! Thank you for letting us know
I like the tea thing. I have some orange cinnamon loose tea
Cool isn't it!! Mmm sounds like a nice combo
Another awesome video coming my way 😊
yippeee
It’s called a frosty ☺️☺️☺️
🇨🇦You guys 🍫everything🍪 you 📹got there🍿 So good😁 How come your🐕 dog not on here they’re so cute😊more🐕
Wendy's Frosty now they have vanilla also
Mmm yum!
It's the same with Germany but more so. To them it's Deutchland. Or at least was originally.
Ahh interesting
It’s a Frosty. Mmmmm HAVE to dip your fries in it. And it has to be chocolate.
Yes that was it! Thank you. Oh yeah it's so delicious isn't it!
Hindber= raspberry 😁
Island in Swedish is more simple it's just Ö.

Hey Rebecca, we are doing okay thank you. How are you?
@@ThisWithThem I am alright 😊 those snacks and tea looked yummy.
Hi kate and alex 🥰
Hey Andrei!! 😀
I quit having Wendy’s Frosty when I found out it has a form of plastic in it the USA allows. That’s why it doesn’t melt. You both look great ! 😊. What a nice, thoughtful and interesting box. Your a lucky bunch lol 😂. Gifts 🎁 and great new foods/ candies yummy 😋
Oh my word, you're joking!! How on earth is that allowed! Hehe we are lucky aren't we!!
I'm not sure what frosty you were eating but they do in fact melt 🤣😂
@@heatherthomas9783 I haven’t eaten one in at least 10 years. But back then they didn’t melt like a normal milkshake and had a form of plastic in them
Wendy’s frosty
