Hi guys, the Jr dippers bring me back to my school days. I use to beg my mom to get them for me in my lunch. Also, Ribbon candy is a tradition my Grandmother use to do every year for the grandkids, She would get us a box. She's been gone from us for quite a while now, and my husband (we have been married 4 years now, and my Grandmother has been gone for 8) never met her, but he started buying me Ribbon candy every Christmas because he thought it was neat. The first time he did I just bust out crying and told him it was a good crying because it reminded me of my Grandmother. He's gotten it for me every year since. I love seeing how excited you guys get, and thankful for everything.
Lisa Scott My mom and I always search for it each year! Sometimes in California it's hard to find. Because we want it from Walmart where it's cheaper! Yeah, I said it! We get the real thin variety! We display it in pretty jars!🦊
Cold Apple cider is also a staple during the fall months in the states (typically around September through Thanksgiving in November) because that is when the cider mills are open and selling their products. Usually that includes the freshly picked apples that are harvested, thus using them to make cider & apple pies. Fresh, warm donuts are made on site also, but generally without apples in them, but you can get either plain, powdered sugar, or cinnamon & sugar dusted ones. If you ever have the chance to get to an authentic cider mill, DO IT!! The fresh cider and donuts, plus the mill is typically set on some beautiful nature so you can enjoy the leaves that have changed color 🍁 Cider mill donuts are something a lot of people wait all year to get!!
A&W is my favorite root beer as I find it has the smoothest taste. Many others have a harsh/bitter aftertaste. I'd have to say Virgil's and Henry Weinhardt's would be my next favorites. I always felt a little disappointed when Mug, Barq's or Dad's were my only options at some places and sometimes would make me change my drink choice.
There's a mustard version of the Gardetto snack mix that is delicious! They also make an entire bag of the brown rye chips because they are everyones favorite. Yum!
When i was a kid i did not know that the rye chips where in fact rye chips so my little sister and i called them liver chips because they look like sliced liver lol
I'm from Canada. So addicted to watching your videos! My family is from England and I always like to try candy and sweets from there and LOVE it! But I love seeing you guys eat things for all around as well! I am going to have to show my Nan your videos!
Fritos with chili and shredded cheese on top, mixed together. Called Fritolates. Delicious! Some folks do it in a layer and put it in the oven and call it Frito Pie. Total comfort food for me!
Yes, breadstick and cheese individual packages you can usually find at discount or dollar stores. You usually get about five individual packs for $1. They also do sometimes come with different flavored cheese or with pretzel sticks or club crackers and a little red stick to spread the cheese. With the corn nuts, they do come in different flavors such as Ranch and barbecue. They may have some other flavors as well but those were the only ones I personally know about. My favorite are the ranch. You can usually find these at gas station convenience stores but they also sell them at a lot of supermarkets as well in the candy and snack aisle. The brown rye chips in Gardetto's mix are my favorite. Now they have come out with bags of just Gardetto's Rye chips. I hate when you get the snack mix bags and the best item in the bag has the least amount of pieces. You get so many breadsticks or pretzels but the Rye chips or the Dorito chips in the cheddar flavored ones they only have a quarter in the bag compared to the rest. Christmas time here they sell packets of Chex seasoning to make your own "Chex Mix" for holiday parties. Cranberry sprite is AMAZING! Vernor's, YES! I'm from Michigan where it comes from. Very bold ginger flavor. AHH, all my favorites.
As a Michigan native myself, Vernor’s is our MUST HAVE during the cold and flu season! Ask anyone from here when they’ve come down with a sickness what they want from the store and you will definitely have a Vernor’s at the top of the list! 🙃 I LOVE these videos! Me and my two little guys always enjoy watching these tasting videos especially! Merry Christmas to you both! Hope you have a wonderful holiday with your family! ❤️🎄❄️
WOWZERS Kate and Alex.....Brooke outdid herself with this box. This was the GRAND FINALE and was INCREDIBLE! You know there were SO many yummy things in the box and too many mint things....LOL (as you know I don't like....hahhaaaha). Those Queen Anne's are ok but we have a brand called Cella's and they are DELICIOUS-they have a liquid center with a real cherry and one of my ALL time favorite candies!!!! This box was AMAZZZZING!!! Thanks for always sharing yourselves with us. I am SO proud of you guys .....you guys are growing, growing, growing.....CONGRATS on that! I am proud to be an 'old-timer' and just excited to see how you guys are growing. Hope you guys have a BEAUTIFUL and WONDERFUL Memory Making Merry Christmas and of course a VERY BLESSED 2019-cannot wait to see all you guys will do in the NEW YEAR! Hoping to FINALLY surprise you with a box in the New Year...with you know what, Kate ;o) Sending LOVE always and BIG HUGS.....Jane PS....I think Ginger Beer, Ginger Ale and Ginger Soda all taste the same but I REALLY love Shweppes Ginger Ale is DELICIOUS and Root Beer is one of my all time favorite soda's....YUMMMMM :o)
You're both great, but I think I'm love with Alex. He just seems so funny & nice. I admire that you both get along so well & the great way you interact. I think I may buy your deluxe box, wrap it up and give it to me & hubby as a gift from our dog. Thank you for the great videos!!!!!!!!
The breadsticks are super common for kids lunches (and are delicious for all ages). Bold chexmix is my favorite, the chocolate ones (they have a puppy chow and the turtle) they seem a little chemically and not any where as good as homemade. My boyfriend loves the queen anne’s cherries (he prefers the dark chocolate so they aren’t overly sweet) and they are only sold at Christmas. He has a bag of 10 boxes under the tree to last him awhile 😊 The most popular pretzel thins aren’t chocolate covered, they sell them in a bunch of different flavors and they are quite popular. I LOVE the apple cider (both warm and cold, non alcoholic) and go out of my way to stop by a cider mill for their apple cider donuts in the fall. Love these videos!
Just a note to thank you both for your happy videos over the past months - they have really helped me to keep a better perspective on life! Like many others I live alone with limited mobility and you are one of my happy windows to the outside world, THANK YOU! Mark from Bournemouth, xxx
Cordial Cherries are always around during the holidays. There is a brand called Cella's, they have pure liquid centers with the cherry. So much better than the fondant ones.
So I hate those Queen Anne cherries n get them every year from my dad's family n usually we get five small boxes n this year they tricked us because we got a big box of 40 pieces n we all laughed cause we r like well there's no regifting those. Lol not really we usually donate them n my mom eats maybe a box but that's it. They just taste way to fake.
This is the time of year make our own homemade cookies & candies. I usually make 10 different varieties of cookies. Peanut butter & chocolate fudge, coconut bon bonus, divinity candy and others
Interesting about dumdum. The mystery flavor is the bit in the middle when they switch from one flavor on the batch roller to another flavor. They don't stop running the machines so two flavors end up combining.
I have been watching yall for a while now and just love you guys. So does my 2 year old. When I need her distracted while I cook, clean, etc I turn you guys on and she will not keep her eyes off you guys. Lol.
The first thing you tried, the crackers and cheese, were my FAVORITE lunch box snack as a kid. You can get that whole line of them for $1. It’s funny that the Fritos are chilly flavored because it’s common to mix the original flavor in a bowel of chili. I’ve never seen that flavor of the Little Debbie Christmas tress but I love the red velvet ones!
No way!! That’s awesome for all of those. I reckon I would love them in a lunch box too! Really! How cool. That would be nice because you could get a mix of both that way! Mmm I love red velvet 😋
Kate there is a very popular snack kids like to make with original Chex cereal called trash. It has powdered sugar, m&ms and chocolate. It was a popular homemade gift for our friends in middle school( ages 11-13 yrs).
The cordials are actually a fondant that reacts to the juices and goes from soft to liquid. I think it is a water fondant base. I’ve made them from scratch before. The longer they sit, the clearer the liquid gets.
I drove a delivery/vendor truck for Utz from September of 2015 -May of 2016. I can tell you a lot of things about Utz products, starting with the snowballs. If anyone sends you the Utz Cotton Tails around Easter, it's the exact same product. Also, Utz chips (crisps) are significantly better in the "kettle cooked" variety.
No way!! That’s awesome. Did you enjoy it? Haha no way! I can see them being the same product now 🤣 oh really! I reckon I would love the kettle variety 😋
Vernors is the best. It originated in Detroit Michigan across the border from where I live so I grew up drinking it. Whenever we had a stomach bug my Dad would heat flat Vernors for us to drink. A Boston Cooler is really good - Vernors poured over vanilla ice cream. It is also nice mixed with milk. Vernors is the oldest soda in the USA - produced for over 150 years. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you both and your family
Just in case no one has told you. Chex are a breakfast cereal of three types; wheat, corn, rice. On the box as far back as the 50's was a recipe to make a snack from them. As I remember it was cups of each type, nuts (mixed or just peanuts) melted butter and Worcestershire sauce. Mixed and baked on a sheet pan. Always taste. Maybe in the 70's or 80's they started making the mix themselves. To check my memory go to this Wikipedia page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chex_Mix
Yes! I've never understood why people put up such a stink about the pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks not having actual pumpkin in it. Its a pumpkin Spice latte, not a pumpkin latte
Next time u have to try a root beer or root beer float with a few scoops of vanilla ice cream! My favorite treat! Love watching u guys opening the stockings.. Like 2 kids on christmas morning! ❤🎄
Kate, i totally agree that turtles are better with pretzels. In my house EVERY year we do 🥨 original shaped pretzels with rolo’s on top and you pop it in the oven for like maybe 3 or 4 minutes (just enough time for the chocolate to melt). They are amazing!! My mom tops it with pecans to make it a turtle with pretzel
You need to try the proper, delicious holiday little Debbie's. The best ones are the soft gingerbread cookies and the brownie trees. The gingerbreads have a thin layer of white icing with sprinkles on top and the brownies have green frosting with the cosmic brownie sprinkles on top to look like lights or ornaments on the tree. Every year my family buys many boxes of both of those flavors because they are our favorites and we don't want to run out.
This box has been one of my favorites! I love SO much of that! The rye chips in the Gardettos have always been my favorite and now they sell them in a bag by themselves! They also make BBQ Fritos which are neck and neck with the chili cheese. Ranch corn nuts are better than the originals, they DO make cashew Turtles and they are AMAZING!! The dippers are more "traditionally" children's snacks but I still love eating them as an adult. I'm excited to try Sprite Cranberry! Little Debbie never disappoints with their holiday cakes and although Peeps are coming out with holiday flavors, I do know people who stock pile them from Easter as they enjoy them better stale. Stouffer's also makes a small, white chocolate with sprinkles covered cookie that comes in the same type of bag as the gingerbread men and are delicious, but my personal favorite are the shortbread cookies with sprinkles. There are SO many different flavors of candy canes out now it's absolute insanity! When I was younger I could ever stomach Ginger Ale and only drank it when I was sick with a stomach bug, now as an adult I don't mind it so much.
I actually got off work early!! So I just finished the video while sitting in the car! I really enjoy watching you both try all sorts of things! Maybe one day I can send you guys a box full of things from my home town in Oklahoma and from my current town in Ohio!
Cherry cordials are made by taking a maraschino cherry, coating it in a powder that is mostly sugar, then coating it in chocolate. After a couple days the powder and cherry make the syrupy part. So there's always a piece of real fruit in there. Also, the pronunciation of caramel and pecan are highly debated between different regions of the US. Some say 'car-mel' while others say 'care-a-mel', and some say 'pee-cawn' while others say 'peek-an'.
Cant believe its come to an end already and its Christmas in 2 days 😮 I love your uploads! Merry Christmas hope you have a wonderful day and a wonderful new year 💖
The cherry candy canes are one of my favorites. I look forward to them every year. I really enjoy watching these videos. I feel like I am hanging out with friends. I hope you guys have a wonderful Christmas. 🤗
Hi Kate and Alex! I really enjoyed playing along with you guys last time so I wanted to do it again! Here we go! The bread stick and cheese snacks are made by quite a few companies. Corn nuts come in a large variety of flavors, ranch are my favorite! The bold chex mix are my favorite. The Gardettos are great. They even make bags of just rye chips! I like the variety tho! Chili cheese fritos are my favorite! So good with bean dip! Ginger soda is really good! Really good for tummy aches! I'm not crazy about peanut butter and pretzel bites. I think they are dry and just not too great. My toddler thinks they are great tho! Lol you found out the secret group we have for you guys! ;) Brooke sent you guys so much fun stuff! There are soo many flavors of candy canes! I like the original and the cherry ones. The dum dum lollipops are very popular with companies to hand out to kids like banks, grocery stores, and banks. Queen Anne cherries are a classic for Americans. There is a brand called Cellas that are so much better!! The blueberry ones are soo sweet! Flipz are good. They make milk chocolate ones that are good. Ghradeli caramel is great. They make a dark chocolate with Raspberry filling that are amazing! The Worthers caramel are good. They also have a caramel apple flavor is nice! Turtles are yummy! So addictive! Loved your video, I love both of your accents the best!!😀. Love you both, Happy Holidays and take care! ❤️
Thank you, Alex and Kate, for a wonderful full of different things box trying, love seeing all your videos whatever the subject, A Merry Christmas to you and your family and a very Happy New Year x
The Fritos are also good on a green/garden salad in place of croutons. The Queen Anne’s are my favorite. My grandmother always gave me a box for Christmas.
Try making a float out of ginger ale and vanilla ice cream. They're called a Boston Cooler - use to be able to get them at Dairy Queen here in Michigan when I was little. Much better than a root beer float!
Alex that sweater makes your head look ginormous. Lol Gardhettos are so good! I ate a lot of those while studying in college. Almond ginger tea is something my sister makes and it's so refreshing. Kate you should make it for a party.
Hey Kate and Alex! I can’t believe how much things Brooke send you in one box. I’m sure your both overwhelmed with the Christmas candies from the US lol. I want to comment on all the candy you’ve tasted but I don’t even remember them all 😂😂😂. I was happy to see you try corn nuts. They come in different flavors. For years it was just like original, cheese, and barbecue. However, now I see more flavors like spicy ones. I like cheese Chex mix the most. I also like all kinds of snack mixes. Even the peanut butter filled pretzels. They truly are dry but I just make sure to have water next to me whenever I get those. I really like the little Debbie brand and it’s funny that you call your mom that. But that’s so cute! The eggnog ones are my fave of the three you tried. Dum dum pops are my fave type of lollipops cuz they are small and it always takes me a long while to finish regular sized ones. Oh and I like ginger ale and love apple cider but I like it iced. I grew up with the chocolate covered cordial cherries. Now I’ve seen a lot of different kinds like blueberry and French vanilla filled but idr which brand. I’m also btw amazed that there is still more things you haven’t tried in the snack world here 😳. Can’t wait for the next video!!! Have a merry Christmas/happy holidays guys!!!
Gardetto rye chips are my favorite! You can actually get whole bags of just those. Also the cranberry drinks are my favorite around this time of year. I drink cranberry ginger ale mostly. Yum yum! Love your videos :)
Because of the peeps you showed last time sounded so good. I went to the shop that sells usa sweets in my local town and I was able to get the gingerbread ones and they was so good!
Can't believe you guys have never tried the Chocolate Covered Cherries. I didn't know that Chocolate Covered Blueberries even existed. Can't wait to try them. They sound yummy!
I would love for y’all to breakdown British popular beers in a pub!!! When I lived in England we drank Stella and Fosters!!! When I came back to America... it was hard to find Stella!!! Lol
Queen Anne cherry cordials are a traditional treat we get every year, my family loves them! In fact we just got a 40 pack 😆 Also the Flipz pretzels come in birthday cake, which are absolutely amazing, I think you would enjoy them Kate! Living in America, I haven’t even tried half of these, but thanks for letting me live vicariously through you 😂 I hope one day I can send you a box filled with Texan treats! As always, love your videos and I hope you and Alex have a Merry Christmas! 🎄
I recently discovered adding cinnamon whiskey to that exact instant cider. I was skeptical, but it has been one of my favorite adult beverages for this holiday season!
I got a candy box from you guys and fell in love with Maltese’s. I wanted more but didn’t have them here in the states. I went to the market last week and guess what I found on the candy aisle... MALTESERS!!! I was so happy! Merry Christmas guys!!
Michelle Holt In California we have Cost Plus World Market, they have a nice selection of 🇬🇧 sweets ! Try the Areo candy bars, they are whipped up and airy! My favorite are the mint ones! 🐯
WOW!! that certainly was the biggest box. True cold Apple Cider is so much better. I love seeing your reactions to many of our snacks and treats from here in the US. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR to you both and your whole family.
Most "pumpkin spice' flavored things, actually have no actual pumpkin included. A lot of recipes just incorporate the spices used to make a pumpkin pie.(nutmeg, cinnamon, etc.)
It is over 55 years that I have run my Parent's store and I still see the chocolates and candies from back then but so much stuff now that is extra, I do not know where to get it but really would I like to run a store again, perhaps!! As long as I do not have to do the buying!!Thanks, Kand A!!!
Love this video, so much of my favorite snacks. My favorite Chex mix is honey nut flavored , I love to throw my peeps in the freezer and let it harden up a bit, and I love the jalapeño cheddar corn nuts
I LOVE ChexMix!! My favorite flavor is bold party mix, followed by original and then cheddar. They also just recently came out with sour cream and onion flavor which is amazing and might replace cheddar as my 3rd favorite flavor 🙂 I also absolutely love chili cheese Fritos. They are classic from my childhood. I love them on sandwiches and wraps for some added crunch and flavor 😍 I love these videos. My kids like to watch them with me as well. I guess we look similar, Kate (which is funny because I'm a Katie), because my 1 year old pointed to you and said "mama!" haha
Hi guys, the Jr dippers bring me back to my school days. I use to beg my mom to get them for me in my lunch.
Also, Ribbon candy is a tradition my Grandmother use to do every year for the grandkids, She would get us a box.

I have no idea why I’m so addicted to their videos lol...but here I am again!!! 😂😂
I think it's fun and exciting to watch how others react to food especially from different countries. Kate and Alex are just fun to watch. ☺
Brittany Stack yes you’re right! Lol I’m always extremely entertained lol
Also bc it's just happy and fun! Very different from a lot of the other stuff on RUclips.
Same. It's oddly satisfying to see them try all our favorites lol
Oh, Kate...you have to be brave and have a root beer float. Sooooo goood. Vanilla ice cream with A&W root beer poured over. Life changing.
Kristie McCloud must be in a frosted mug!
@@planetearth1705 Of course! Cant believe I left that out.
A&W is my favorite root beer as I find it has the smoothest taste. Many others have a harsh/bitter aftertaste. I'd have to say Virgil's and Henry Weinhardt's would be my next favorites. I always felt a little disappointed when Mug, Barq's or Dad's were my only options at some places and sometimes would make me change my drink choice.
@@xnonsuchx Definitely agree. Not all rootbeers are created equal.
@@planetearth1705 If you use cold diet A&W you get a root beer crust on the ice cream!
I love their energy and how they never run out of talking points!🇬🇧🎅

I love Chex mix. But Gardettos is 100 times better!! Glad she sent both.
They're so good! I love them! - Alex
The bag of just the rye chips from Gardettos are addictive!
Special request bags of just the roasted garlic rye chips 💯
Whaaaa? I didn't know you could buy just the rye chips! They're the best part!
I said the same thing! 😀😁

Jen Fox I agree, Cella’s are the best.
I agree! I like the liquid better than the creme.
Wow Brooke you are so sweet to get not just the candy box but the gifts too xxx
Ranch corn nuts are amazing!! They have the best flavor.
Mmm I love Ranch!!
Those and the BBQ flavor one are the two best flavor imo
@@snowflakeflims never had the bbq flavor. I'll have to try them.

Maybe in the 70's or 80's they started making the mix themselves. To check my memory go to this Wikipedia page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chex_Mix
Bad Billy They tasted awesome! I haven't had them in years though! 🐻
Pumpkin spice has no pumpkin in it. It’s named for the spice combination used for pumpkin pie,etc. 😊
Yes! I've never understood why people put up such a stink about the pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks not having actual pumpkin in it. Its a pumpkin Spice latte, not a pumpkin latte
What a way to end the year! 🌲🎅Merry Christmas to you and your extended family. 🤶🐧
Every Christmas morning, we have Vernor's ginger ale mixed with an equal part of orange juice 😋
Another enjoyed video 😊. I love seeing your reactions to American candies. Merry Christmas to you and your family as well. 🎁🎄🎅🏻❄️💕
Next time u have to try a root beer or root beer float with a few scoops of vanilla ice cream! My favorite treat! Love watching u guys opening the stockings.. Like 2 kids on christmas morning! ❤🎄
Brilliant box. Merry Christmas Kate and Alex
Kate, i totally agree that turtles are better with pretzels. In my house EVERY year we do 🥨 original shaped pretzels with rolo’s on top and you pop it in the oven for like maybe 3 or 4 minutes (just enough time for the chocolate to melt). They are amazing!! My mom tops it with pecans to make it a turtle with pretzel
Merry Christmas, you guys are a joy to watch.
Seeing the joy on your face has made my day. Merry Christmas you guys. Be blessed and enjoy your day.
You need to try the proper, delicious holiday little Debbie's. The best ones are the soft gingerbread cookies and the brownie trees. The gingerbreads have a thin layer of white icing with sprinkles on top and the brownies have green frosting with the cosmic brownie sprinkles on top to look like lights or ornaments on the tree. Every year my family buys many boxes of both of those flavors because they are our favorites and we don't want to run out.
Emily Gross I bet you could seal some in Ziploc Freezer bags and enjoy them longer! I know I'm a very bad influence! ⛄️💐
I love Vernors!! I'm from Michigan (Detroit) and we drink Vernors when we have an upset stomach mainly. It also makes a great float as well.
satira2087 yes! My husband drinks it that way and now our daughter does. He puts it in a bowel though instead of a glass.
This box has been one of my favorites! I love SO much of that! The rye chips in the Gardettos have always been my favorite and now they sell them in a bag by themselves! They also make BBQ Fritos which are neck and neck with the chili cheese. Ranch corn nuts are better than the originals, they DO make cashew Turtles and they are AMAZING!! The dippers are more "traditionally" children's snacks but I still love eating them as an adult. I'm excited to try Sprite Cranberry! Little Debbie never disappoints with their holiday cakes and although Peeps are coming out with holiday flavors, I do know people who stock pile them from Easter as they enjoy them better stale. Stouffer's also makes a small, white chocolate with sprinkles covered cookie that comes in the same type of bag as the gingerbread men and are delicious, but my personal favorite are the shortbread cookies with sprinkles. There are SO many different flavors of candy canes out now it's absolute insanity! When I was younger I could ever stomach Ginger Ale and only drank it when I was sick with a stomach bug, now as an adult I don't mind it so much.
Hello Kate and Alex! I don't have time to watch the whole video tonight! I will watch it tomorrow!! Have a wonderful weekend and a Merry Christmas!!!
I don't blame you it's a long one! Enjoy when you do watch and Merry Christmas! - Alex
I actually got off work early!! So I just finished the video while sitting in the car! I really enjoy watching you both try all sorts of things! Maybe one day I can send you guys a box full of things from my home town in Oklahoma and from my current town in Ohio!
Cherry cordials are made by taking a maraschino cherry, coating it in a powder that is mostly sugar, then coating it in chocolate. After a couple days the powder and cherry make the syrupy part. So there's always a piece of real fruit in there.
Also, the pronunciation of caramel and pecan are highly debated between different regions of the US. Some say 'car-mel' while others say 'care-a-mel', and some say 'pee-cawn' while others say 'peek-an'.
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 love your videos💛
This vids is bring back good childhood memories of Christmas.
Ahh yaay! That’s nice to hear
I love watching videos and your so awesome Kate.

Some of my holiday favorites ❤️ Such a lively video! Thank you and Merry Christmas 🎁
Thank you Kelley! Merry Christmas to you too 🎄♥️
Hi Kate and Alex! I really enjoyed playing along with you guys last time so I wanted to do it again! Here we go! The bread stick and cheese snacks are made by quite a few companies. Corn nuts come in a large variety of flavors, ranch are my favorite! The bold chex mix are my favorite. The Gardettos are great. They even make bags of just rye chips! I like the variety tho! Chili cheese fritos are my favorite! So good with bean dip! Ginger soda is really good! Really good for tummy aches! I'm not crazy about peanut butter and pretzel bites. I think they are dry and just not too great. My toddler thinks they are great tho! Lol you found out the secret group we have for you guys! ;) Brooke sent you guys so much fun stuff! There are soo many flavors of candy canes! I like the original and the cherry ones. The dum dum lollipops are very popular with companies to hand out to kids like banks, grocery stores, and banks. Queen Anne cherries are a classic for Americans. There is a brand called Cellas that are so much better!! The blueberry ones are soo sweet! Flipz are good. They make milk chocolate ones that are good. Ghradeli caramel is great. They make a dark chocolate with Raspberry filling that are amazing! The Worthers caramel are good. They also have a caramel apple flavor is nice! Turtles are yummy! So addictive! Loved your video, I love both of your accents the best!!😀. Love you both, Happy Holidays and take care! ❤️
Gardetos are my favorite snack mix.
I loveeeee warm apple cider. I always get a cinnamon stick and put it in there and stir it around. Sooo good. Give it a try. It’s delicious
Great Video 🎄Merry Christmas Kate and Alex can’t wait for your videos in the New Year💕🦋🦋🎄🎄
Merry Christmas to you both and thanks for keeping me entertained this year, look forward to more in 2019. 🎄🎄
Thank you, Alex and Kate, for a wonderful full of different things box trying, love seeing all your videos whatever the subject, A Merry Christmas to you and your family and a very Happy New Year x
You two were so cute looking through the stockings. You were both so excited. Have a Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas Kate and Alex and Happy New year to you too
The Fritos are also good on a green/garden salad in place of croutons. The Queen Anne’s are my favorite. My grandmother always gave me a box for Christmas.
Gardetto's and chocolate- and yogurt-covered pretzels are my absolute favorite. Those garlic rye chips? Pure joy.
Great great video!!!
If you refridgerate the fudge mint mini oreos before you eat them they are sooooooo refreshing.....
Madja Larson I LOVE those cookies! 🏰
Merry Christmas and a Happy New year Kate and Alex!
Your Christmas box videos are so brilliant! Happy New Year!
On the geardeto's the rye chips are also sold separately. Light bit of garlic. heaven.
Try making a float out of ginger ale and vanilla ice cream. They're called a Boston Cooler - use to be able to get them at Dairy Queen here in Michigan when I was little. Much better than a root beer float!
That’s not real apple cider but it’ll do in a pinch. Fun video. Merry Christmas and happy and prosperous New Years
Merry Christmas to you two and your family!! may God Bless you abundantly in 2019 and beyond!!!Love your channel!!!🎅🌲😘🍫🍬🍭
Alex that sweater makes your head look ginormous. Lol Gardhettos are so good! I ate a lot of those while studying in college. Almond ginger tea is something my sister makes and it's so refreshing. Kate you should make it for a party.
I love pretty much everything they tried. Especially the savory things
I love the Jr dippers. Use to take those on school field trips.
So great aren’t they!!
Yeah but the pretzel ones are better
I used to enjoy the breadstick ones.
Hey Kate and Alex! I can’t believe how much things Brooke send you in one box. I’m sure your both overwhelmed with the Christmas candies from the US lol. I want to comment on all the candy you’ve tasted but I don’t even remember them all 😂😂😂. I was happy to see you try corn nuts. They come in different flavors. For years it was just like original, cheese, and barbecue. However, now I see more flavors like spicy ones. I like cheese Chex mix the most. I also like all kinds of snack mixes. Even the peanut butter filled pretzels. They truly are dry but I just make sure to have water next to me whenever I get those. I really like the little Debbie brand and it’s funny that you call your mom that. But that’s so cute! The eggnog ones are my fave of the three you tried. Dum dum pops are my fave type of lollipops cuz they are small and it always takes me a long while to finish regular sized ones. Oh and I like ginger ale and love apple cider but I like it iced. I grew up with the chocolate covered cordial cherries. Now I’ve seen a lot of different kinds like blueberry and French vanilla filled but idr which brand. I’m also btw amazed that there is still more things you haven’t tried in the snack world here 😳. Can’t wait for the next video!!! Have a merry Christmas/happy holidays guys!!!
I love Kate and Alex!!!
I thought people in England said Happy Christmas. Either way, Merry Happy Jolly Christmas Kate and Alex!!
-Love from a Virginian in Tennessee!!
Omg I love lunchables
The Pretzel Crisps have lots of different flavors, such as original and garlic parmesan. The Flipz also have different flavors, such as birthday cake.
Gardetto rye chips are my favorite! You can actually get whole bags of just those. Also the cranberry drinks are my favorite around this time of year. I drink cranberry ginger ale mostly. Yum yum! Love your videos :)
No way! Mmm I bet that’s amazing!!! Thank you so much ☺️ so pleased you do
Love Lindor/ lindt white chocolate just ate a whole bag of them.
Welcome back Kate and Alex! So excited as always❤❤❤
Yay! Thanks for watching! 😀🎉
@@ThisWithThem u are very welcome. Can I ask you when you and Alex's birthdays are? Or is that too personal?
Because of the peeps you showed last time sounded so good. I went to the shop that sells usa sweets in my local town and I was able to get the gingerbread ones and they was so good!
Can't believe you guys have never tried the Chocolate Covered Cherries.
I didn't know that Chocolate Covered Blueberries even existed. Can't wait to try them. They sound yummy!
I would love for y’all to breakdown British popular beers in a pub!!! When I lived in England we drank Stella and Fosters!!! When I came back to America... it was hard to find Stella!!! Lol
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family
Queen Anne cherry cordials are a traditional treat we get every year, my family loves them! In fact we just got a 40 pack 😆 Also the Flipz pretzels come in birthday cake, which are absolutely amazing, I think you would enjoy them Kate!
Living in America, I haven’t even tried half of these, but thanks for letting me live vicariously through you 😂 I hope one day I can send you a box filled with Texan treats! As always, love your videos and I hope you and Alex have a Merry Christmas! 🎄
Merry Christmas! 🌲😘💞
I recently discovered adding cinnamon whiskey to that exact instant cider. I was skeptical, but it has been one of my favorite adult beverages for this holiday season!
Mmm yes!! I can see that being really good!
Pumpkin spice is not pumpkin flavored, it is the spices you’d use in baking pumpkin things (pie, bread, etc.) :)
I was just about to comment this!
Now that Christmas Candy box #4 is finished, I guess it's time to schedule a Dental Check up !
Queen Anne Cordial Cherries are my faveee 😍😍 I get them in my stocking every Christmas 😊
I got a candy box from you guys and fell in love with Maltese’s. I wanted more but didn’t have them here in the states. I went to the market last week and guess what I found on the candy aisle... MALTESERS!!! I was so happy! Merry Christmas guys!!
Michelle Holt In California we have Cost Plus World Market, they have a nice selection of 🇬🇧 sweets ! Try the Areo candy bars, they are whipped up and airy! My favorite are the mint ones! 🐯
WOW!! that certainly was the biggest box. True cold Apple Cider is so much better. I love seeing your reactions to many of our snacks and treats from here in the US. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR to you both and your whole family.
So big wasn’t it! Cold! No way. Yay so glad you enjoy watching our videos. Thank you! Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and your family too ♥️
Most "pumpkin spice' flavored things, actually have no actual pumpkin included. A lot of recipes just incorporate the spices used to make a pumpkin pie.(nutmeg, cinnamon, etc.)
thank you for sharing
It is over 55 years that I have run my Parent's store and I still see the chocolates and candies from back then but so much stuff now that is extra, I do not know where to get it but really would I like to run a store again, perhaps!! As long as I do not have to do the buying!!Thanks, Kand A!!!
Love you guys tons always enjoy your videos
Love this video, so much of my favorite snacks. My favorite Chex mix is honey nut flavored , I love to throw my peeps in the freezer and let it harden up a bit, and I love the jalapeño cheddar corn nuts
hi guys i love your channels/your videos,they're wonderful!
I LOVE ChexMix!! My favorite flavor is bold party mix, followed by original and then cheddar. They also just recently came out with sour cream and onion flavor which is amazing and might replace cheddar as my 3rd favorite flavor 🙂 I also absolutely love chili cheese Fritos. They are classic from my childhood. I love them on sandwiches and wraps for some added crunch and flavor 😍
I love these videos. My kids like to watch them with me as well. I guess we look similar, Kate (which is funny because I'm a Katie), because my 1 year old pointed to you and said "mama!" haha
