I'm pretty well travelled but I still remember my child like delight stepping off the metro in Brussles and being able to get a freshly baked hot waffle smothered in ice cream of your choice with chocolate sauce. How I left that country still fitting in a plane seat I'm still not sure.
Flemish woman here, relocated to the lovely Balinrobe area. Happy to see this one 😁 I'll send you some melocakes as well. One of my absolute favourites.
I would like to end your struggle with the word fume, with an accent on the e, means in french "smoked", bonne journee Garron, your video was great fun! Terri Leckner, Montreal
Thank you for your service of providing a forum whereby I can vicariously experience food that I would consider too expensive, risky, or unhealthy to partake of in reality. Very delicious!
Delicious Garron is having a ball there with his international snacks 😂 also,when are we getting another episode of Garron does driving as the 1st masterclass was,well,class 😂😂❤
Cannot BELIEVE Gicopa citrus cherries are not there! They are hands down the nicest sweets in Belgium. I'll bring ye back a couple when I'm over for crimbo!
the most common flavoured chips are natural and paprika and than additional flavored lik pickles. love that you enjoyed our snacks. i'm from the flemish part of belgium where we speak flemish or dutch it is practicly the same but different nuances like America, the UK and Australian.
Watching your videos brings back memories of living in Erin 2008-2011. What a sense of humour the Irish have, I laughed till I cried for three years. You make me miss the place. Best wishes from Oz!! Graham
Santa was the bishop of Myra in turkey. He’s wearing the traditional bishops hat. He was declared a saint by the pope so Santa means saint. Saint Nicholas and Santa clause are both acceptable title and one and the same
We have a restaurant in Montreal, which serves Belgian waffles, some with strawberries, icing sugar and whipped cream, mmmmm, but loads of sugar, delicious! Terri Leckner, Montreal
Hi G. Youve probably already have been told this, but you have telly appeal, .... dead serious, im going to peer into the future and make a prediction, some evening when im cooking my dinner and half listening to the very small telly in the kitchen, im going to hear your distinctive voice presenting some show. 👏👏👏
I love wafers and waffles! We do have spice biscuits here (in Ireland) from Lotus. Plain and filled with custard cream. Some cafés and restaurants have the spiced biscuits with the coffees! Really nice!
Love the show,you’re just doing alright for yourself ain’t bucko? Here in the states we used to call it “live the life of Riley “ which meant “sweet” by the way, has anyone ever told you that you tend to whistle when you speak? I find it endearing. The Irish charm has hooked me. ☘️
A Belgian friend went home and brought back a box of Cote D'or chocolates to share, and even the smell of it before I took a bite was amazing. Legendary chocolate.
Isn’t that chocolate the best and sparkling tea is new! St. Nicholas is the original Santa. The deli choc looks surprisingly good. I may need to move to Belgium…
Half Belgian, half Irish person here. They speak Flemish and French in Beligium. Destrooper waffles are indeed Flemish. You don't need to heat Suzi waffles, though microwave would be better than toaster. You dont need to put anything on them either. We also have a type of bread you can buy in the bakery that has sugar kernals in it similar to Suzi waffles. It's called zuiker brood, literally sugar bread.
Also, my great grandfather always had Leopold sweets! I had forgotten they existed. Thank you for the memory. He always had the lemon ones. I loved them!
Toppings are for tourists. Liege Waffles already have sugar pearls inside, so no need to add anything really. Brussels Waffles are rectangular without sugar inside, so we usually just add some powder sugar on top. Occasionally people may top with cream, ice cream or chocolate, but that's less common.
The pickle crisps aren't pickle flavour, they are Picallili flavoured, the mustardy kind.Also, Picalilli in Belgium tastes much sharper than it does in the UK. (Belgian living in England)
The first crisps you tried are a corn and potato snack that are “Smoked Fume” flavored. I think that’s a wonderful name for a crisp flavor. Now I need to get some of those sent to the American South (or possibly move to Belgium)
Whoever sent that should've gotten praline chocolate xD there's a lot more to Belgium that I do miss in Ireland but wouldn't want to trade even if you paid me. We speak French, Dutch (Flemish) and German :)
As people have mentioned: dutch (flemish), french and a bit of german on the side. So everything on those packets is in (at least) 2 languages (dutch and french). Great stuff! 🥳🇧🇪
I love your videos my fellow Irishman they teach me a lot of culture about Ireland and it's wild my family immigrated from Ireland to Halifax generations ago and I am about as Irish as it gets your videos explain the reason I am the way I am and it's great haha
As an official Irishman, I can confirm that there's nobody more Irish on RUclips than yourself. Jaysis, wha? To confirm I'm Irish, the cringe in me is beyond 10. You're doing a great job!
We have grill chrisps here in Sweden too. If theirs are the same as ours (and since we are kind of close I don't see why not) it's just a very strong yellow onion flavour.
Lays Grills are Smoked bacon flavour. I used to love them when I lived there. Unfortunately, the paprika version is no longer in production which was a savage combo!
Love your videos brother keep it up ! Just a suggestion made in the US but we have them here in Canada but I love to grab the Hormel gatherings company name ,Pepperoni Snack Tray but ya lol just a suggestion
I have never thought to heat up the cold wafels, i've lived in Belgium for 17years! Those suzy belgian waffels are from Liege (french name for luik) usually you get them freshly made hot covered in cream chocolate strawberries- so basically anything sweet. There are Brussels waffels aswell but the luik's ( said 'like' with a cork accent) are the ones you we see more often. gerookt/ fume is smoked. I love lays pickles, Oh and everything has to be labelled in dutch and French. Belgian Dutch is called flemish or formally as Nederlands. It is usually spelled the same but said very differently in every town and village.
@@campoilse7111 Is it the brussels ones or that a tourist thing aswell. i live in the middle of a city so only i only see ones people have stuff on them. Personally, not a fan
@@OrwilrmWLiège waffles with toppings is 100% a tourist thing, no Belgian would ever eat a Liège waffles that way. The Brussels waffles are indeed served with toppings, usually powdered sugar or whipped cream, but you can also get fruit, ice cream... But this is a sit down meal and you wouldn't really get a Brussels waffle to go. You eat it in a tearoom with a knife and fork 😄
St. Nicholas... Saint Nick... Santa Claus.. all the same essentially but St. Nicholas was more of a historical religious person, which has devolved now into a spirit of Christmas. He was generous and saved innocent people and over the centuries became a legend and a myth, with Reindeer and a sledge that flies.
One of my favorite memories of Amsterdam is passing out after getting stoned off my arse and drinking 5 cartons of Chocomel, had an out of body experience watching myself gurgling like a greedy toddler with a belly full of delicious milk.

Pleasure Garron! Glad you enjoyed the selection!
Great choices Jon!
Good advice. But I'll be honest, I didn't realize the sound is shit until you mentioned it haha
Us Belgians happily welcome the endorsement of our sweets by a famous Irish man. You're always welcome to come join our sweet little country 😉
He needs to try Leonidas. Divine chocolate.
@@dazzathomas we have Leonidas shops in Ireland although we're the first to admit they're not Irish but are indeed divine.

Probably smoked Paprika. That's why the Bacon flavour?
@@xatz8527😂😂😂😂❤
Belgium waffles are lovely heated with vanilla ice cream
Here’s to Belgium. That looked so good.
00:35 laughed right along with you. You’re so adorable.
Agreed 😍😅
Current favourite RUclipsr, absolute quality Garron 👌 👏 👏
Hi Garron. A carpet, mat, blanket on yer wall will make you sound lovely
@@helenlynch5116 think they meant it will stop him echoing
I love a man who takes his food so seriously, the hair is tied back so nothing will spoil the decadent moment!
(From a woman who does the same!)
Ooh I'm second and I used to live in Brussels. I can't wait! Fumé is Smoked flavour - BBQ
Flemish woman here, relocated to the lovely Balinrobe area. Happy to see this one 😁 I'll send you some melocakes as well. One of my absolute favourites.
@@84Fie melocakes ooooh have no idea what they are but can you send some to Australia too??? They sound otherworldly
Lad, you having a great snack adventure is giving my cheeks a workout smiling at your happiness. Cheers!
I was in the middle of an educational video but had to stop immediately because this is the real educational content that I need.
I would like to end your struggle with the word fume, with an accent on the e, means in french "smoked", bonne journee Garron, your video was great fun! Terri Leckner, Montreal
We have that Chocolate milk Chocomel in Ireland, too. At least in the North of the country we have. Bound to be down the South too. 😊
I'm Irish aswell and I'm from CO.Wexford Enniscorty Blackwater and I won a county final in u 12 when I was 8 and I was just so happy and proud

Thank you for your service of providing a forum whereby I can vicariously experience food that I would consider too expensive, risky, or unhealthy to partake of in reality. Very delicious!
You just brought back some of my memories of Brugge. The Belgians are as wonderful as their chocolates. 🇧🇪
Hi from Brugge...🙋🏼♀️
Delicious Garron is having a ball there with his international snacks 😂 also,when are we getting another episode of Garron does driving as the 1st masterclass was,well,class 😂😂❤
You are such a lucky man
My mouth is drooling. You are so delicious
Always appreciate you Garron 👌🏼 x
"All your secrets are in French" Why do I feel like that's a line I want to use somewhere 😄
Oh, I so am.
Wow, is this the first time you’ve loved absolutely everything in a food tasting video? That was delightful! Now I want to go to Belgium. 😂
Cannot BELIEVE Gicopa citrus cherries are not there! They are hands down the nicest sweets in Belgium. I'll bring ye back a couple when I'm over for crimbo!
You are so funny Garron. Early days of the trade via the Silk Road. 😆🤘

Or Ireland...given we are watching an Irish guy!
Loved this! Thanks to Jon for choosing so well!

I've eaten the elephant chocolate and it's so good 👌🏻
We have chocomel here in ireland now as of recently, but its 3 euro a can of course
I LOVE true Belgian waffles. Warm and slightly crunchy from the melted sugar.
Santa was the bishop of Myra in turkey. He’s wearing the traditional bishops hat. He was declared a saint by the pope so Santa means saint. Saint Nicholas and Santa clause are both acceptable title and one and the same

That is a lovely snack box!! No one would complain upon receiving that.

Your Belgian language skills are impeccable!💖
I loved this so much. You are hilarious! I am looking forward to the next episode. Thanks from Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
If you can, try to get the 'dessert 58' cote d'or bar. It's sublime (imo).
Belgium make amazing baked rice pudding pies. I always stock up on them at Belgian petrol stations when passing through on my way to Amsterdam!!!
Effort appreciated✅ Like the carbonated peach iced tea. I love Arnold Palmer Iced tea best the combo of tea and lemon aid is delicious😋
They sell Chocomel all over the UK so I wouldn't be surprised if you can get them in Ireland. I've had it Holland in one of the smoke/coffee shops
The little kiss at the end Garron, you’ve about killed me, and I’m a happily married woman
That whistle on the "T"....goodness.😍
For improved audio quality hang a rug 5-10 cm off the wall, it'll supposedly dampen the echo / hard-room acoustics.
I love wafers and waffles! We do have spice biscuits here (in Ireland) from Lotus. Plain and filled with custard cream. Some cafés and restaurants have the spiced biscuits with the coffees! Really nice!
U Got A Hard Job😆
I loved your video, everything looked delicious!
By the by, you look fine in your new lighting, I can see your face clearly, you are well spoken, clear and deep voice as well! Terri Montreal
Brilliant package of delicious there, so many favourites
Wow Belgium, it was all winners! I think that's a first.

"let me palette cleanse with Lipton" will be the name of my third born.
A Belgian friend went home and brought back a box of Cote D'or chocolates to share, and even the smell of it before I took a bite was amazing. Legendary chocolate.
How does he pronounce it? I say coat door probably emphasis in all the wrong letters
Kot door would be the Wright pronunciation @@SiennaArtsandCrafts
Belgium has 3 national languages Dutch, French and German
I love peach tea! I’ve never seen sparkling before!
Isn’t that chocolate the best and sparkling tea is new!
St. Nicholas is the original Santa.
The deli choc looks surprisingly good.
I may need to move to Belgium…
Always enjoy watching you. Raw and real. Also you look fucking phenomenal with your hair up like that!
That light takes the lbs off you Garron.
😂
Now that was a backhanded compliment.
@@EdieH-ui2si indeed sir
Côte d'or milk chocolate = warm hug when you need it ❤
I just seen your piano I always wanted to get lessons one day on playing instruments, love your videos ❤ much love
Enjoyed that Garron, lived in Brussels for 3 years.

Turn a light on behind you too , not too bright but it will help things look better.
I need some sweets from Belgium now
Love these videos, really making me want to try all sorts of snacks.
Toppings are for tourists. Liege Waffles already have sugar pearls inside, so no need to add anything really. Brussels Waffles are rectangular without sugar inside, so we usually just add some powder sugar on top. Occasionally people may top with cream, ice cream or chocolate, but that's less common.
You should record a meditation, even swearing, your voice is super soothing…. 💚
Fun! I wish you had a bookshelf behind to place rack packet. Best Luck!
send me money lol you cheeky bugger garron you crack me up though
How ddo we send you snacks... would love to send you some from.... Sichuan China...
Theyve strated doing Chocomel in Supervalu 🎉
It's been available here for a good while. Dealz have had the chocolate biscoff too.
The pickle crisps aren't pickle flavour, they are Picallili flavoured, the mustardy kind.Also, Picalilli in Belgium tastes much sharper than it does in the UK. (Belgian living in England)
Lipton tea and Lay’s crisps are available in the USA! I mean, Lay’s is a top brand! 😮
but do we have this sparkling Lipton?
We also have Lipton Iced Tea in Ireland, just not the fizzy versions
Tayto. Tayto are the best crisps in the world and invented flavoured crisps.
Please shake the Chocomel before you open it, it will be even better since most of the chocolate is settled at the bottom.
The first crisps you tried are a corn and potato snack that are “Smoked Fume” flavored. I think that’s a wonderful name for a crisp flavor. Now I need to get some of those sent to the American South (or possibly move to Belgium)
The English translation of the French word "fumé" is "smoked".

We speak French, Dutch (Flemish) and German :)
Our most famous sweets are handmade Cuberdons.
Bailey's is water. The best is Saint Brendan's Irish cream. 🤤
As people have mentioned: dutch (flemish), french and a bit of german on the side. So everything on those packets is in (at least) 2 languages (dutch and french).
Great stuff! 🥳🇧🇪

For the Grills chips, fumé means ‘smoked’, no chickens involved in think😂
We have grill chrisps here in Sweden too. If theirs are the same as ours (and since we are kind of close I don't see why not) it's just a very strong yellow onion flavour.
Dear Kieron, thank you for your tips on how to say foreign words and your views on sweets and drink from abroad 😊
Sooooooo delicious looking. Biscoff is soooo delicious
Sparkling ice tea! 😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤ wow! I want some.😂
Most Ice Tea in Belgium is of the sparkling variety - although non-sparkling ones do exist (they’re just not as prominent).
My favourite international snacks so far.
Loved this
The new light makes u look delicious
mainly on products is spelled in french and dutch like the chocolat it is milk buit french word for milk is lait and the dutch cal it melk.
Good for you John.
Lays Grills are Smoked bacon flavour. I used to love them when I lived there. Unfortunately, the paprika version is no longer in production which was a savage combo!
Can't beat Belgian chocolate! Was the chocolate drink like American Yoo-hoo? This was s very enjoyable video. TY😂❤❤❤

Try America next please😊
