Thank the lord that no American restaurant thinks beans on toast is edible.
I'm sure someone would think up a beans and toast roll, maybe even a hot pocket version, if it was popular enough....maybe for a UK chain, lol.
Beans on toast is actually quite good. Every time i go to England I have it and sometimes make it here in Texas. Nothing wrong with that.
@@kateg7298 I mean, it's edible. I've personally never had it. But these are both ingredients that probably every American has had. It's not hard to imagine how that would taste. I don't think it would be "bad" per se, just probably "meh".
Beans on toast is lovely.
Especially early in the morning. No thanks.
We have gas stations and truck stops. Truck stops will always have a true restaurant/diner, rest facilities for long-haul drivers (showers, etc.) and gas pumps for cars and semis. Typically, they are located along an Interstate roadway, while gas stations are everywhere. These are variations combining some of both.
Um no... most truck stops consist of showers, overpriced junk food & a fast food restaurant, usually a Subway most of the time! T/A and Petro still have their restaurants but the food is lousy!
I work in a gas station grill in North Carolina. I work the breakfast shift. We have sausage,bacon, country ham,fried bologna,fried red hots and hot dry links. We also have eggs and cheese ,french toast,and potatoes with onions and we have just started serving fish cakes. You can get a sandwich if you like , on toast, biscuit,toast or just plain bread. And thats just breakfast.
What are red hots? Hot dry links? And, by fish cakes, do you mean crab and lobster cakes?
@petermiller4953 red hots are a smoked red link sausage.
Hot dry links are spicy(hot) or green links as some call them ,a raw link sausage .
By fish cakes I mean Salmon cakes or croquettes some call them.
I’m so glad to see Moa in the vlog❤😊!!! I hope we continue to see her for a while yet. I know the pain of losing a pet 😢 because they’re not just a pet, their family❤!!! God Bless you Recky & Carol.
To drive from one side of Texas to the other side without stopping is 10 hours and 50 minutes 😊
But it seems much longer 😂
My husband and I drove from Mesquite Nevada to Astoria Oregon in 2 days. 1200 miles. It was crazy. My husband is so awesome!
When we moved to Texas we found that most gas stations have either a food trailer or some form of small vendor at them. Some are fantastic and some aren't but usually pretty fresh. Have had great tacos at random gas station/convenience store places you'd never think would have them.
Thanks for the Texas plug. Yes, there are some great little food places. Best tamales you can ever find and one place does amazing bbq and creamed corn.
I stopped at some gas station in north Florida on the way to the beach one time. They had a lot of choices, but what stood out to me was their fish sandwich. Basically 2 slices of white bread and a fried catfish fillet. Hit it with a little hot sauce and it was pretty good. So basic, but so good. I was regretting not getting a second one. And I also regret not writing down the location.
@@chrisb2535 I've lived in various cities in North Florida. The most common gas station food you'll find here is fried chicken and fish. But barbecue is pretty common as well. One town i lived in had a guy pull up a smoker outside a shell station and start selling barbecue. he expanded into a bunch of other gas stations, eventually opening a food truck and starting a catering service. Tacos are less common but generally really good when you find them. Hard to go wrong with seafood most places in Florida though.
A hoagie is a sub sandwich. There are many different terms for a sub sandwiches in the US: in the NYC area it is hero, in Boston it is a grinder, in northern NY State and many parts of the US it is a hoagie. There are also areas which say the same names for different sandwiches depending on if the sandwich is hot or cold. When it doubt just say sub. Sandwiches from Subway are always called subs no matter where you are in the US.
It's the sandwich version of Soda and it's many names, lol.
I always heard hoagie in terms of hot sandwiches. A steak hoagie for example, chicken parm hoagie, etc. But if it was a cold sandwich on a long roll it was a sub. I'm sure it changes based on the region you grew up in.
I live in Indianapolis. It is a 2 hour drive to either Louisville, KY or Cincinnati, OH. Or a 3 hour drive to Chicago, IL. We would not think twice about driving to any of these cities for an event and then drive home the same day.
Love meatball with marinara sauce, onions, green pepper and provolone cheese. So good and easy to make at home too.
Most gas stations in the US are like the ones you describe. There's a few chains in different regions that try to attract customers with food or drink. WaWa, Sheetz, Quick Trip, Royal Farms, etc.
With longer drives, you just have to kind of get in the zone with music or conversation and it passes faster than you think.
Awwww, sweet Moa, watching her two favorite people, just like we are. 😻💙💛
My heart is with you. I recently lost my cat Luna. Enjoy every moment you can.
I've watched Jolly before.
He was fairly comical, but I didn't realize that Ollie was so cool.
Yeah, when we did long road trips, we packed food in coolers, pulled into the state rest stops along the way to eat and use the bathrooms. Other times when pulling over for gas and food we would stop at places/towns that had regular gas stations and fast-food chains. I really depended on where you were going and what route you took, lol.
You need to have meatballs with Italian seasoning mixed in the meat. Eat it hot on a hoagie roll with marinara or pizza sauce and either provolone or mozzarella cheese
new york city to dallas, texas is over 1,500 miles- without stops is almost 23 hours :)
An everything begal refers to the seasoning, like an onion bagel.
Yeah in a country this big you have to travel to get anywhere i drove 18 hours just to go on vacation you can literally drive for days straight here would take you nearly a week to drive from one coast to the other 😂😂👍👍
We have Royal Farms gas stations in a Maryland,Pa.,WVa, Va.,Del.NJ, and
NC.. They are known for their fried chicken and sandwiches. It has gotten awards
for the chicken.
We used to live on Long Island, NY and worked in Queens. 140 miles round trip. My husband I drove it every day for 30 years.. One way on a good day 2 hours. On a bad day 3 1/2. In Minnesota now and I LOVE it.
We have a vacation in August to the Outer Banks in North Carolina (OBX), it’s a 12 hour 15 minute drive with no stops.
Just drove from West Virginia my new home to my friends and family in New England 13 hour drive . It's nice to hear everyone talk like me again and I miss the food here in New England. I've had Haddock 4 times in the last 6 day's. Today is lobstah ( lobster) and scallops wrapped in Bacon and brushed with maple syrup 😊
Haha,! In Texas 6 hours wont get me half way across the state . Lol
20:29 I've done 8 hrs on my job and came home and drove straight through to florida with the wife and 3 kids in a station wagon. Before car seats. 15 hours ! 1000 miles
Yes, you are right about the effect of distance. This is why the US, especially the western US, is a car culture.
Sending you both love and it was fun seeing Moas tail trailing across the screen
It's a 26 hour drive from New York City to Texas
Wawa always has fresh rolls.. they bake them at each store
Growing up in New England, Wawa was just a convenience store store. No gas station.
A sandwich on a loaf of bread like that is called different things depending on what part of the US you’re in. Hoagie, submarines (or sub), grinder, hero…. And regardless of what you call it, they can be either hot or cold.
I love it ..
American watches Swedes react to Brits in America
A Wawa is just around the corner from me. Did you know that it’s named after a species of goose? That’s why a goose in flight is in the logo. And, my Wawa is not a gas station, just the store part. My go-to was turkey and provolone sliced on a sub roll, shredded lettuce and sliced tomato and onions with salt, pepper and oregano. Red wine vinegar and oil on the bread. If you put mustard or Mayo on the sub, we’ll know you’re out-of-towners! 😂🤌
My friend and I went on a road trip to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We drove from Minneapolis, Minnesota to San Francisco, up into wine country and then back home. We stopped at several places during our 13 day trip. We ended up putting almost 5,000 miles on the rental car!! All of the gas stations we stopped at were nowhere the size of WaWa or Bucees. Good thing too. Would have spent too much time i there! 😂😂
We have a Sheetz gas station by us. They have everything from breakfast to after drinking night out.
From Philadelphia Pa...this is our corner store, throughout PA, NJ, Delaware...and it is named after an actual city Of WaWa Pennsylvania.🎉
We have Wawa and gas stations like that and we also have gas stations that are very simple and do not have food with eating or only sell snack items. We also have Royal Farms gas stations that have excellent fried chicken. Love your channel. ❤❤
In Texas, we have Stripes convenience stations. In the ones that have "Taco Stop" signs, there are decent tacos.
Fun video! Josh and Ollie finally found some food that wasn't so great lol.
I LOVE Wawa!!! I miss it soooo bad! I was born and raised in Philly (Philadelphia ). I moved to Kentucky 3yrs ago and there are no Wawas. I actually used to work at a Wawa. They say they are building a few in Louisville over the next year or two. CANT WAIT!!!
I live where Wawa started. I mainly go to Wawa to use the bathroom or buy a drink. Their food is subpar but if you're drunk and it's around 2AM it's great.
Hot meatball sandwich: pick favorite baguette style bread, cut in half(leaving a edge connected) lightly tosst inside. Italian seasoning meatballs, same as you'd make for spaghetti. Prefer to put a little mozzarella cheese in the bottom of roll, slicing meatballs so they lay flat, spoon on marinara or pizza sauce, top with cheese (like smoked Gouda, mozzarella and a touch of Parmesan. Place in oven to melt cheese and enjoy! Very filling
36 1/2 hrs straight from NJ to Scottsdale AZ…..Many, Many times. 17 hrs from NJ to Orlando FL….Yes, speeding was involved 😂
I was attending a school in Minnesota, but I'm from Georgia. I managed the trip home for Christmas break in a day - 17 hours of driving. Set off before sunrise.
Returning north I'd stop in northern Illinois so I didn't have to deal with icy roads in the dark. I don't really want to put in those kinds of hours now that I'm not in my 20s, but it's doable. Anything 12 and under in my family was always done in a single day. There's no excuse to drag it out longer.
New York to Texas is 26 hours. If you keep to your 2 hour drive schedule it would take you two weeks. Probably cheaper to fly that distance, but it would be a hell of a road trip if that's the kind of American experience you want.
Wawa is really good. They offer salads and soup. They ordered the wrong stuff. The smoothies are excellent. They have fruit or coffee smoothies 😋. They, of course, have hot coffee and tea. They have all kinds of snacks. It's better than subways. You can add anything, ant kind of sauce, your choice of bread. The sandwich in Pennsylvania is called a hoagie. You can get a small or footlong. The Wawa footlong is longer than subways.
Hi from another Carol! From where I live, we think it's nothing to drive 3-4 hours one way to visit family/ friends or to go to NYC, Philadelphia, Buffalo/ Niagara Falls for the day and return home, but the older we get we do find ourselves sometimes staying overnight! Carol, the cold sub/hoagie they were trying is an Italian with a variety of Italian meats, like capicola (hot seasoned ham),salami, pepperoni and usually provolone cheese (or the cheese of your choice) and then onions, sliced pickled hot peppers, tomatoes, and lettuce and an oil/vinegar with herbs (or no herb) sub sauce sprinkled over it all. Your cold meatball sub sounds good to me, I love beets. we make a beet relish (especially at Easter, I'm part Ukrainian) that is made of grated pickled beets and freshly grated horseradish root. It is eaten at Easter with smoked sausage like kielbasa and with ham. We also love it on hot dogs and burgers. So good!
Wawa is crazy popular in Florida. All kinds of food made fresh to order, open 24 hrs. Tons of people order delivery from them in North Florida. It's crazy
😂
Did you watch the one before this, where they got the "Philly" Cheesesteak Sandwich in Philly? They talked about going to Wawa's and the "natives" were, "Well, yes, you should try it."
Wawa is the BEST~!! I live in southern New Jersey,a half hour drive from Philadelphia,with a Wawa just a mile away from my house.....my son lives in Iowa,no Wawa's for 1,000 miles lol. First thing he does when he comes home to visit, after leaving the airport,is stop at Wawa😂 He once tried to sneak a Wawa hoagie onto the plane,,tsa made him throw it away 🤣
The name Wawa means "goose" in the Leni Lenape native american language,hence ther logo,a goose~!!
I live "near" Buccee's now, but I grew up with Wawa. Man I miss Wawa. The Hazelnut coffee brings people back.
When you two were talking about long drives, I never thought about it from your perspective that two hours or more seems like a long drive. But then again I have not been to your country either. This summer coming in July me and my brother are going on our annual trip to see our family out in Salmon Idaho from Burlington Wisconsin. We take two weeks off and take our time and drive approximately eight hours a day with a couple rest stops in between. But we will take three days to go out there so we can enjoy our country that Many of our fellow Americans take for granted sometimes to enjoy the journey to our main destination. United States is amazing place. And even members including me of our family have not been to all the states but we are trying. I hope you too eventually can make your dream come true and come visit us in our country. And one day I hope to come visit yours. Keep the faith and it will happen.
Regarding road trips: I just bought 100% electric Chevy Blazer, so You plan a trip. Example: Albany NY to Ocala Florida. Some people will do it in 19 hours. I set to stop and charge every 2 hours because I need to move after that long in the car, so total trip 25 hours = 1222 miles both get 300 miles -340kw (6stops)$240 or 64gal (4 fill up) $320. I just went to VT Country Store 155 miles $11.75 in electric or $35 gas. If you have time New Zealand Family is currently travel in RV on the West coast, it’s a different view of America. Tractor Trailer driver can’t go over 10hours of driving without 5 hours of break. That’s just to much driving.
Wawa is derived from the Ojibwe word we'we (pronounced "way-way") meaning snow goose, despite the company's image of a Canada goose.
wawa isnt just a gas station yall, its a way of life, and they dont all have gas, when they have a gas station its called a super wawa and that was a much later addition to wawas, most of them are standalone convenience stores :p
Come to Philadelphia! Do some research and you'll find a cool connection between Philly and Sweden. Lots of Swedes settled in the area hundreds of years ago. The city flag shares the same colors as your country.
I live in Houston Texas and my husbands work is an hour from our home, completely normal here.
Where I live in Florida we have several wawa gas stations and they are pretty good Buc-ees is much better but they do have really good smoothies that's what I go there for.
As for road trips when I lived in Pennsylvania we would drive to Florida to visit my grandparents it was a 23 hour drive and my dad would drive straight through stopping every few hours at a rest area to potty and stretch our legs. I have drove from Florida to TX several times it's about an 18 hour drive to our daughter. The longest trip I did was 32hours with just resting at a few times at rest areas. For my daughters graduation we couldn't have a party because it was in 2020 so her and I did a 3 week road tip in that time I drove 4020 miles. We visited several states and family members.
We don't have WaWa in Texas but it reminds me of a QuikTrip (QT) gas station. Our meatball sandwiches are usually Italian and have a marinara sauce with parmesan sprinkled on them.
Regarding your comment about driving to Texas from New York... if you were to drive from NY city to Austin Texas you are looking at a drive of 1752 miles or about 2820 kilometers. That is about 26 hours of driving but you would also need to stop for food, rest, bio breaks, stretching etc. So you would need at least two days and a lot of snacks along the way. This is why the suggestion is always to fly to a region of the US and then explore just that region by car.
Some gas stations up here in WI you'll find food trucks or "roach coaches" in the parking lot
New York City to Dallas, TX is a 24-hour drive.
Speaking as a Texan 2 hrs is just down the way a bit and 3+ is "over yonder" ;-). In Texas if you start far South and drive North for 8 hrs (At 65miles per hour) you are still in Texas. If you start far East Texas by Louisiana and drive 8 hours West, you are still in Texas.
I don’t know about that WAWA but the one near me is really good. I love their their special around Thanksgiving. It’s a hot bowl with mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, cranberry sauce and turkey gravy. It’s pretty good.
USED TO DRIVE TO FLORIDA FROM WV, ABOUT 12-14 HOURS WITH STOPPING FOR GAS AND PEE BREAKS...ONE DAY. CAN'T DO THAT ANY MORE...GETTING TOO OLD FOR IT.
A true road trip is at least 12 hours of driving. No one in the U.S. will be impressed unless it is a multi-day driving trip. The freedom to just go is very important to us.
❤We have Quick Trips everywhere, referred to as simply QT. Very similar to Wawa, and there are hundreds of locations in North/Central Texas. A road trip for me is 4-12 hours. A stop to stretch my legs, etc. at QT, or anywhere, after about 3 hrs is about right. But a 9 hour total day is not uncommon before stopping for the day. Most meatball sandwiches here are Italian style with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.
FYI Jolly's Hot Sauce challenge video, followed by the spicy remedies to stop the burn video, are freakin' hilarious. Highly recommended.
I have a Buc-ees and a QT, near me for comparison when you visit 😜
Kwik trip the local Minnesota gas station has a hot food area with hamburgers and mozzarella breadsticks with marinara they have a spicy and or non-spicy chicken sandwich with cheese. They have breakfast stuff in the morning that is warm. They have fried chicken they have soups they have chilies. You can also get cold sandwiches and yogurt you can get almost everything you need at the local gas station
If your plane lands in NYC and you are going to Houston Texas, it will take you 24 hours to drive the 1636 miles between them.
Dude. For the two of you to drive from N.Y. to Texas, it will probably take you two to three days. Back when I was younger, I could drive from Fla to Philly. It would take twenty plus hours. I'm at 62 now and I can't do those straight thru drives anymore.
For us, 6 hours is the farthest I can travel in 1 day, including stops, for 1 day. So, anywhere that is 6 hours or less, which comes down to 330 miles, from our house is where we go for vacation. We have very few passenger trains that go across America, so this is another reason why.
I REALLY, REALLY enjoy riding on passenger trains whenever I get the chance and hope we will get them here very soon!
I worked at a garage next to a wawa in new jersey and it was great you getsub hotdogs because we did not a lunch break.
If you drove from New York city to houston texas its 1600+ miles and would take you 24 hours of solid driving to get there 😂😂😲😲yes i Googled it lol
Love that precious little Moa. Please give her some lovies from BNK, (Karen), and my fur babies, Maximus (Max), Ms. Rita, Atlas. Please consider also visiting Missouri on your trip to the US. Please??! I would definitely help out on costs of hotel, foods! P.S. There is a Buc-ee's near me and I've never been there, yet. I'm also one of those who considers a 2-4 hour drive nothing of any significance, even up to a 7-8 hour drive - meh. LOL. The drive from Springfield, MO to Admore, OK, (nearish the TX border - 20 miles away) was a crazy long 10 hour drive that I didn't care for though. I would also have zero patience for driving through Texas.
This actual wawa they were at is close to me in NJ area but they didnt even touch to the best stuff at wawa honestly. There is so much more ! It is definitely not a place that people go for tidiness, but for quick easy and pretty great food if you know the way around the menu
Wintergaten 2000 marbles thanks fam 😊😊👍👍
The very first wawa was built in my hometown of ridley. It's a suburb of Philly now they're everywhere you look. The food is good if you want something quick to eat or its 2 in the morning and your drunk. LOL There's to many small pizza shops that serve better food if you have time to order from them.
New York to Texas is roughly a 4-day drive.
Wawa's is good. They have soup and salads also. My go to is the Panini.
From my house in Dallas to New York City is 1560 miles. I’m sharing this because you were wondering how far it was to drive (2510 km)
Yeah you don't get the bagel, you get a breakfast sub with scrambled eggs, cheese, and bacon.
Usual gas station food is probably similar to what you have. There is a roller grill for hot dogs & sausages. If you are lucky, they have only been on the grill for a few hours instead of most of the day. Buc-ee's & a lesser degree Wawa & Walley's are changing that. The other gas stations will have to up their game. And filthy bathrooms.
There are a few videos of Brits visiting this petrol station. Please look for The Beesley's video as well as Office Blokes Daz they both are very good.
A cold meatball sandwich?? Ewww you should get a fresh baguette make sure its soft make some meatballs put them in your favorite tomato sauce cover with shredded mozzarella and eat it while its still hot😂😂👍👍
So, so happy to see Moa, y’all too!🥰
You should react to “Your New Zealand Family’s” video on the Mall of America, it’s impressive
To much choice is never a thing! If you choose to keep it simple, thats fine, but everything should be available. I was used to working usually 6 hours away from home, and being in a hotel most of the week. I have worked just under a 23 hour drive east and west of home, luckily I live near the center of the contiguous U.S., so thats near the limit I could drive.😊(edited for typo)
Recky Carol and Moa👏🔥🤟❤️🥳🇺🇸
I use to take 3 freeways to work
Well the Jolly guys weren't that impressed by Wawa. I'm not even sure what area of the country they're located in. But I can tell you this, it takes almost a day and a half to cross the entirety of Texas from East to West. Not sure about North to South. Like I have said before, it would take me 6 hours to get to the closest Buc-ee's and that's even going 75mph.
its not 2 hours but I drive 1.5 hours to work everyday and obv 1.5 hrs back.
Aww, sweet Moa!!
You can't go to one WaWa and expect everything to be great all the time, some suck, some don't.
Recky you can serve in the U. S. military to earn your citizenship.
I just came acrossed a video , it's by Codey Simon and it's titled "Is Swedish food good? Let's rate it 1-10... what do I try next?"
I'm watching it now and he's in the store buying things to try. Maybe you guys can react to this video and let us know how accurate he is
Buc -ees is few and far between. Wawa is everywhere
I think WaWa is only in a few states...4 or 5 maybe on the East Coast.
I live in northern delaware near the de/md state line. There is a Wawa 1/4 mile down the road...and they are going build another one even closer on the other side of the road. Crazy, but crazy good and convenient.
Wawa is just decent fast food sandwiches not all Wawas are gas stations and I wouldn't consider them normal gas stations. Most normal gas stations here you will just get snacks and hot dogs also.
Hoagie, sub/submarine, grinder, hero all the same sandwich.
We do not have these wonderful gas station stops in my area, which is a big huge miss on the west coast,. Any comments I have after are political rage which I will not inflict on you. Have a great day and love the show.
Queen Moa!!!! We will treasure every moment she feels like being on camera. ❤❤❤
Give Moa a kiss for me, Moa is the director!!!!!
Ye
Ars ago my brother and I went on a road trip from K C Mo to Belmont N C a 20 hour trip
