38 yo Asian-Canadian here... in all 38 of my years, I have yet to understand why ketchup chips are not a thing anywhere else in the world, esp in America. Fried potatoes + ketchup is like the staple food/side dish of America. Served everywhere from McDonalds to steakhouses. Somehow the line was drawn between fried potatoes in thin circle form, and fried potatoes in long rectangular form. lol..please help me understand why!
In Germany they used to sell these little bear-shaped potato snacks that were ketchup flavored. I haven't been back for a visit in the last 12 years so I'm not sure they still make them but they existed!
Yeah I don’t like crunchy texture to my chocolate I love caramilks and arrows. But won’t eat coffee crisp or Kit Kats. MnM’s I’ll eat but won’t buy I like peanut enough that it’s not that bad
I love watching people try our snacks for some reason but oh man youre one of the first to actually bring out the hawkins cheezies such an S tier snack
You missed Jos Louis (chocolate cake rounds), butter tarts (a unique pastry), Nanaimo bars (chocolate treat) and Flakie (fruit-filled pastries). On the chocolate bar side, you missed Aero (bubbly chocolate), Oh Henry (peanut bar, available with or without peanut butter), and Caramilk (chocolate with caramel-filled pockets). That's enough to do an entire sequel episode :)
Haha a lot of my favs in there. Both of you with the maple cookies. Yes - that. Even no name maple cookies are fire. Coffee crisp with a coffee or tea is divine!
My favorite video of yours. This hit home for me 😭 My mom told me I used to steal Coffee Crisp from the convenience store shelves while I was still in a stroller. Toronto in the 80’s was good times 🇨🇦
Canadian here and smarties are actually not a big deal for me but they have a song for these that say "when you eat your smarties, do you eat the red ones last" lol I agree with her on the ketchup chips, they are one of my favorites but I love coffee crisp. It just goes to show that everyone's palate is different. Thank you for reviewing our snacks. It's fun watching people from other countries try out things from Canada!
Love this idea! Please consider more!! Apparently the Hickory Sticks are a great addition to soups, sandwiches, dips, salads, and as addition to grilled chicken dishes
As a Canadian I agree with your choices. Hickory sticks are great in wraps and on burgers (summer time fav). I don't eat a lot of sweets but Coffee Crisp is my go to when I do get the craving!!!
Since you both enjoyed the Miss Vickies so much, please PLEASE try the Lime and Cracked Pepper flavor. It is SOO GOOD!!! Great selection of snacks you had there.
Lol! Including your wife was awesome and wholesome! You should try the Chinese food (downtown and Richmond Hill areas) and Korean food for your wife, and you can find the newer Korea town in the Yonge and Finch to the Yonge and Sheppard area.
Whenever our cousins from California come up to visit us in Canada we always go out and buy Ketchup chips and All Dressed chips for them. Also butter tarts.
I love eating the coffee crisp in layers, one of my favourite bars. And smarties are best if you let them melt in your mouth, savour the taste instead of crunching them fast 😊
!!!! *Honoured* to have accidentally bumped into you both!! And (in true Canadian fashion), I am sorry for mistakenly calling ringlady "ringleader", although, she does give serious badass energy. Hope you guys have had an amazing time in Toronto!! All the good vibes from CA! 🍁🇨🇦
Idk if you knew this but all the chips except for the hawkins are from the same manufacture, Hostess. They are all apart of the Lays team. Old Dutch is the other brand other than no name.
I am from Canada, my favorite are maple cookies. You can make nuts and bolts treats with hickory sticks and I do add them to my veg burgers sometimes lol
You should've tried Ruffles Sour Cream and Bacon. For texture I would go with Hard Bites (cooked in Avocado Oil) Black Truffle chips or their Wasabi or their Honey Mustard.
CC is massively overrated and has become worse. Maybe it's nice dipped in actual coffee or hot chocolate. That said, smarties actually taste like cardboard and chalk. I seriously don't know how they managed to make candy coated milk chocolate taste like that.
Coffee Crisp is a great, not too sweet chocolate bar. M&M’s have always been better than smarties. Smarties melt color into your hand and, the coating is too thick.
I'm Canadian and love hickory sticks. I call the hickory swords cause one wrong bite and you stab your mouth. Ive never thought of putting them on a burger though, that's brilliant!
I recommend pecan butter tarts for treats but I think it's great that you like strange potato chip flavours in Canada because I've always thought I was crazy for liking dill pickle the most but I don't understand this thing of sticking your schnoz into the potato the chip bag😂 seems popular with Americans😂
Hickory sticks are not my fave but when I have them, I crumple all of the sticks up after I open the bag so they are more like a crunchy powder and then dump them in my mouth. Better that way imo. The maple cookies are one of my fave cookies and the coffee crisp is definitely top 5 chocolate bar.
For being mass produced, Peek Freans cookies are absolute quality. Will always love the fruit creme, maple, and the blueberry crisp. Also, coffee crisp might be one of the reasons i've never lived away from Canada. 😅
As a Canadian, these videos are really cool to see
Same!
We agree
Coffee CrrrrrRiissp
@ meow
I agree.I love this.
Your wife is lovely, Ben! Great personality. Wishing you the both the best and a long, nurturing marriage.

Ben is resistant to her tom foolery. I'd be busting out laughing lol.
he's a major dweeb
Miss Vickies is an S tier chip. Especially the Sea Salt & Malt Vinegar. Jalapeño and the Sweet and Spicy Ketchup flavors are also amazing
The spicy ketchup is fire. Tastes like McDonald fries.
Sweet Chili and Sour Cream are my favourite Ms Vickie’s!
I love those spicy pickle ones
Miss Vickies the GOAT, Chili Pepper Sour Cream and Honey Dijon also good. I dont think they can make a bad chip.
@@txtualytomg all these flavors I’ve never heard of! I’ve tried the honey dijon it didn’t have any flavor to me :/ but smokehouse bbq is my fav😋🤤

kerrs makes ketchup chips in the states, afair, way overpowered, now we've got double flavouring chips that compete for punch.
Actually in UK walkers has a Heinz ketchup flavoured crisps (chips if you are American) they are an amazing flavour.
In Germany they used to sell these little bear-shaped potato snacks that were ketchup flavored. I haven't been back for a visit in the last 12 years so I'm not sure they still make them but they existed!
I'm Canadian and your picks are pretty much spot on. But you forgot the caramilk bar. You have to try it
Yeah I don’t like crunchy texture to my chocolate I love caramilks and arrows. But won’t eat coffee crisp or Kit Kats. MnM’s I’ll eat but won’t buy I like peanut enough that it’s not that bad
And Aero
@@philippehanna96my favourite!
Oh Caramilk and Aero Bars...my faves
Wunderbar is GOAT for me. Putting Smarties above Coffee Crisp is wild.
We need more episodes with RL, love the energy she brings to the table!!
She's SO Cute! Love seeing you and wifey together ❤ Your chemistry is amazing on camera!
Ring lady is a vibe 😂😂😂
Their first child 👦 should be named joo-joo
@@JimboJones99 too little too late lmao
I love love Ring Lady❤ she is funny and kind and genuine! We need more RING LADY!
I love watching people try our snacks for some reason but oh man youre one of the first to actually bring out the hawkins cheezies such an S tier snack
Theyre disgusting lmfao. Thats old people food
Such an accurate reaction to the smell too 🤣 They're damn good but it absolutely hits you hard lmao

100% I completely agree
Jos Louis and Flakie are so trash tbh. But god damn, I had no clue Aero, Oh Henry and Caramilk were Canadian exclusives.
@@Forgotten_Fables aero and caramilk aren't Canadian lol
The milk chocolate version of caramilk is canadian, its produced only in toronto. The australian version is made with white chocolate. @@Shambo214
@@Forgotten_Fablesaero is british, oh henry and the milk chocolate version are canadian though
Haha a lot of my favs in there. Both of you with the maple cookies. Yes - that. Even no name maple cookies are fire.
Coffee crisp with a coffee or tea is divine!
seeing these two together just shows me how awesome love is, and makes me yearn to find a soulmate of my own.
You guys are so enjoyable to watch! Thanks for liking our Canadian snacks!
Coffee Crisp is a legendary Canadian chocolate bar. My American friends always ask me to bring when I visit.
Oh Henry as well! They don't have any down there!
Finally people who actually enjoy them lol Ms Vickies is the GOAT every flavour slaps!
My favorite video of yours. This hit home for me 😭 My mom told me I used to steal Coffee Crisp from the convenience store shelves while I was still in a stroller. Toronto in the 80’s was good times 🇨🇦

Canadian snacks are literally GOAT tier, I love them (I am definitely not Canadian)
Sure
American here I wish wish wish we had easy access to All Dressed chips, Coffee Crisps and Maple Leaf cookies

Ben: Smells pretty good 👍🏾
Ring Lady: *smells bag* 😵💫
😂😂😂
Ring Lady antics and Ben facial expressions be funny asl 🤣
What a cute video. I also like you'll showing us the variety snacks in Canada. Thanks!
lol, BenDeen gets it... happy wife, happy life 😂
i know right? it took me years before i learned about this! kudos to Ben!
This content deserves an award!
The fact that I have watched your videos for years and you are currently in my home city is so exciting, love watching you try our food! Makes my day
This has to be one of the best RUclips couples. Honestly. I love both of their energy they put into the video!
Damn you don’t have ketchup chips,I thought this an American thing,fries and ketchup .
Love this idea! Please consider more!! Apparently the Hickory Sticks are a great addition to soups, sandwiches, dips, salads, and as addition to grilled chicken dishes
Hawkins Cheezies are the best.
The crunch is absolutely savage.
As a Canadian I agree with your choices. Hickory sticks are great in wraps and on burgers (summer time fav). I don't eat a lot of sweets but Coffee Crisp is my go to when I do get the craving!!!
Since you both enjoyed the Miss Vickies so much, please PLEASE try the Lime and Cracked Pepper flavor. It is SOO GOOD!!! Great selection of snacks you had there.
Your wife seems reall chill Ben wish you both the best and hope you have a great time in Canada!
I don't see any humor in Ben's videos but with ring lady I laugh the whole time. lol
MORE RING LADY. Such a fire duo you guys
She defers to Ben, then overrules him. 😂 We KNOW who the boss is. 😂😂😂
Wifey is too funny 😂❤ So cute!
Lol! Including your wife was awesome and wholesome! You should try the Chinese food (downtown and Richmond Hill areas) and Korean food for your wife, and you can find the newer Korea town in the Yonge and Finch to the Yonge and Sheppard area.
lmao, your wife's reaction to the cheezies is gold
When my uncle moved to Michigan whenever we visited him we had to bring him coffee crisps. Still my fave chocolate bar too.
Get the Ring Lady Miss Vickie's Spicy ketchup. Her reactions are the best 😂
You two are making me hungry. As a Canadian, you picked out great snacks to try and review
I'm glad you liked all those snacks and they were definitely snacks I've eaten in the past so good assortment too!
Yeah I only really use hickory sticks on stuff like you said. Hamburgers, sandwiches, burgers, wraps even hodogs 😂
Try it on a Grilled Cheese
Nachos too
New from the start they would like the jalepeno dill kettle chips, honestly one of the best chips ever made
Every one of these snacks is FIRE. You should review Canadian music too. Matthew Good, Tragically Hip, etc.
I’m proud to be Canadian 🇨🇦
glad you’re enjoying our food!😋
You are so lucky to have this lady by your side!! She stole the show ❤
Hickory Sticks were my jam as a kid.
Ben, I have been watching you for YEARS. So happy you found your person, she's gorgeous!
Whenever our cousins from California come up to visit us in Canada we always go out and buy Ketchup chips and All Dressed chips for them. Also butter tarts.
Same like me. I have a high affection towards all kinds of crispy crunchy snacks.
Never been on your channel before. This chick is brutal.
as a canadian why does this make me smile. Love this
Bro you gotta try Oh Henry and Mr. Big!! Probably some of the best chocolate bars you can get in Canada
I thought Ben wouldn’t like the maple cookies
@@maranpakeer I don't. Too freaking sweet!
Yo, isn’t oh Henry in other countries too? I always thought it wasn’t just Canadian and people in the US had it too.
@ShelleyBeanMartin he already did a video on purine
@@sahandforoozanfar9069Oh Henry has been around in the USA forever. I remember my dad buying Oh Henry bars in the 1970s.
I love eating the coffee crisp in layers, one of my favourite bars. And smarties are best if you let them melt in your mouth, savour the taste instead of crunching them fast 😊
I appreciate the "loose leaf" joke. Well played.
Miss Vickies has a "Sweet and Spicy Ketchup" flavour that is leaps and bounds better than Lays, imho.
As a Canadian it makes me extremely happy you enjoy our snacks!
Gotta try Canadian Doritos flavours and Ketchup. Also the fast food spot A&W!
!!!! *Honoured* to have accidentally bumped into you both!! And (in true Canadian fashion), I am sorry for mistakenly calling ringlady "ringleader", although, she does give serious badass energy.

This is a funny story 😂😂
Idk if you knew this but all the chips except for the hawkins are from the same manufacture, Hostess. They are all apart of the Lays team. Old Dutch is the other brand other than no name.
Just stumbled across your channel today and I absolutely love watching you both try our Canadian snacks and Tim Horton's lol. New subscriber here!
I am from Canada, my favorite are maple cookies. You can make nuts and bolts treats with hickory sticks and I do add them to my veg burgers sometimes lol
You should've tried Ruffles Sour Cream and Bacon. For texture I would go with Hard Bites (cooked in Avocado Oil) Black Truffle chips or their Wasabi or their Honey Mustard.
these are great choices of canadian snacks... all classics
Smarties over coffee crisp diabolical
CC is massively overrated and has become worse. Maybe it's nice dipped in actual coffee or hot chocolate.
That said, smarties actually taste like cardboard and chalk. I seriously don't know how they managed to make candy coated milk chocolate taste like that.
Hell nah smarties all day. Especially smarties McFlurry. Classic
Agreed smarties are trash
Coffee crisp sucks, smarties over it ANY day
Coffee Crisp is a great, not too sweet chocolate bar. M&M’s have always been better than smarties. Smarties melt color into your hand and, the coating is too thick.
It’s always fun to watch people experience food/snacks I’ve had since I was 7.
Hickory sticks are a great addition to a grilled cheese 🤤 loving the Canadian content ❤
Or a peanut butter sandwich 😅😊
I'm Canadian and love hickory sticks. I call the hickory swords cause one wrong bite and you stab your mouth. Ive never thought of putting them on a burger though, that's brilliant!

The dills crunch with a good yogurt...also cheezies with moisture...
cheezies are often rancid tasting.
I laughed so hard those first few mins!!! She's hilarious 🤣❤
Hickory sticks are still my favorite!!! 💯
I crush them super fine and use them to coat my baked porkchops, so good.
AHAHAHA shes so silly I love her... shes really perfect for your videos haha im lovin the balanced vibes
Old Dutch potato chips are iconic simply because they come in a cardboard box, two bags inside what is like a big cereal box.
Not any more,
Cheezies are a road trip snack for my family in Canada. Ketchup, Dill Pickle, and All Dressed are staple Canadian Chip flavours.
the beginning was so funny lol
Ruffles all dressed are my fave chip ! As a Canadian I love these ! They are addictive and so yummy !!! ❤
Ben is indeed the GOAT
All dressed ruffles dipped in Philadelphia cream cheese is to die for
She nailed the dolphin sound lol
supposed to be a goat😭
Hickory sticks are not my fave but when I have them, I crumple all of the sticks up after I open the bag so they are more like a crunchy powder and then dump them in my mouth. Better that way imo. The maple cookies are one of my fave cookies and the coffee crisp is definitely top 5 chocolate bar.
Ring Lady is the goat
Why?
@@steveg5591 I dont answer questions
And hickory sticks are really good when you mix into a bowl of popcorn! Just to add some of that salt and crunch
You must try a beaver tail while you're in Toronto. Should be a stand near the aquarium
or the one on lakeshore!
Ruffles all dressed….my favourite chip! Also maple cookies are my fav as well. Good choices in snacks to try.
Should go to the frozen section in a grocery store and get a Delissio frozen pizza. Pepperoni or deluxe are the bomb.
Delissio frozen pizza? LOL. Serious?
Delicio is discontinued😪
@JOONIE.K really? When?
Yeah it’s discontinued they said they would rather focus on other products or something 🤷♂️
Seeing people's reaction to things I take for granted and see every day growing up is a real pleasure
0:29 that sounded more like a dolphin, hmmm surprisingly the ketchup lays smell like ketchup who'd have known
Meow
@canadian1174 that is a cat not a goat or a dolphin
Ben the goat 🗣️ ring lady hypes Ben up 😂
22 usd for all that, as a canadian that would all cost $30+
hahah my man so glad u came to canada absolutely beenenjoying this. thanks brother and ring lady!!
Yes in the Netherlands we have lays ketchup tooo… it’s sooo goood!!
For being mass produced, Peek Freans cookies are absolute quality. Will always love the fruit creme, maple, and the blueberry crisp.
Also, coffee crisp might be one of the reasons i've never lived away from Canada. 😅
Benn Deem’s wife is so Beautiful 😘
It's funny that you gave smarties extra points for the packaging. Growing up, Smarties were most known for being the candy packaged in boxes.
Ketchup chips used to taste way better. They taste like shit now, unfortunately. 😒
How do you know what shit tastes like?
They literally taste the same they did 20 years ago lol
I dip my maple cookies in a nice cup of black tea! Perfection 👌🏽🍁
She always destroy his vids
The vibe is different
She never lets him win and never yields to him. Let the man have his way just once!
I agree with hickory sticks being too small as a snack, but i do buy them and put them on burgers from time to time, goes really well.
