I'm Irish but I live in Italy,and one of the first things I do whenever I go back to Ireland is have a bag of Tayto cheese and onion crisps.
Nothing like it, a cup of tea, has to be Barry's being a Munster woman, with buttered bread and cheese & onion Taytos smashed. My mouth is watering thinking about it now!
im also Irish living in Italy, my mate just brought me 8 multi packs of tayto and 6 packs of sausages I'm a happy man haha
@@EMMYK1916some Galtee cheese on it
And a can of club orange
Your name isn't max dy eny chance 😅
Irish hound is most beautiful and gentle dog❤
There aren't any bears or wolves (outside the zoos) anymore. The bears went extinct around 500BCE. If you ever visit there's a tourist spot called the Aillwee Cave's. A farmer chased his dog in there and found the caves, years later while exploring them they found bear bones. The logo for the caves includes a bear because of this.
Fun fact... cause I was looking up one day. The last wolves in Ireland were killed in sligo and donegal around 1795
I’m nearly sure there actually are a handful of brown bears in the north of Ireland I think in Donegal there’s a forest sanctuary where they have reintroduced bears, wolves and the lynx.
The Irish wolfhound is the sweetest dog ever. They don’t need a huge amount of exercise though they do have bursts of energy and, they are big babies. They don’t get how big they are and still want to cuddle on your lap.
The Irish wolfhound went extinct a long time ago , what their calling an Irish wolfhound is actually a deerhound
@@michaelmurphy333 The Scottish deerhound was already half Irish Wolfhound. The Wolfhound never went extinct but they were rare. Wolfhounds were mated with Deerhounds to increase numbers. Then the pups that looked the most wolfhound were used for breeding.
A half anything dog wise is a mongrel , there haven't been pure bred irish wolf hounds for hundreds of years so it's fraud to call any hound an Irish wolfhound
@@tomjohnston1220 you just made my point exactly there is no irish wolfhound left they don't exist
You should really check out irelands native sports hurling and gaelic football not just the games but the ethos and culture behind them As you prefer amateur sports/college sports you will like Gaelic football and hurling though they are our most popular sports according to the Sports sponsorship index of 2022 and 5 years consecutively and they attract 80 000 spectators fairly often ,the players don't get paid they are just regular men and women who have regular jobs.
The Brits in the comments desperately trying to minimise all things Irish, priceless!😂
Are you surprised
Wait until they find out we're better at English too! 4 Nobel prizes
There is a mistake here, the White House is not based off Leinster House but on Áras an Uachtaráin where the President of Ireland resides in the Pheonix Park in Dublin. They look a lot more similar than Leinster House does.
Well said🎉
Irish Wolf Hounds are beautiful, loyal but short-lived.
There are no brown bears wild in Ireland these days. I had no idea that polar bears were genetically related to irish bears, though.
Just a"Few" things about ireland ,there are hundreds of inventors from Eire.
The Guided Torpedo, invented by Louis Brennan in 1877
The Hypodermic Syringe, invented by Francis Rynd in 1844
The Binaural Stethoscope, invented by Arthur Leared in 1851
The Induction Coil, invented by Rev. Nicholas Callan in 1836
The Ejector Seat, invented by Sir James Martin in 1946
The Bacon Rasher, invented by Henry Denny in 1820
The Cream Cracker, invented by William and Robert Jacob in 1885
Coffey, Aeneas (1780 - 1852) Dublin man Aeneas Coffey invented the world's first heat-exchange device in 1830.
Louis Brennan was a creative mechanical engineer and Irish inventor who created an early version of the helicopter and shortly followed the helicopter by an early prototype of the ejection seat which become a standard installation to all Royal Airforce aircraft in 1946.
Tattoo Machines: Samuel O'Reilly
O'Reilly, and patented December 8, 1891. O'Reilly's parents were recent Irish immigrants to the US. His invention used a high-speed reciprocating motor to drive a single needle. O'Reilly's design was based on Thomas Edison's earlier invention, The Electric Pen.
Wilson, Walter Gordon (1874-1957), engineer and inventor of the tank, was born 21 April 1874 at his family's home, Dunardagh, Temple Road, Blackrock, Co. Dublin, fifth son of George Orr Wilson, barrister, and Annie Wilson (née Shaw).
James Francis Partridge, another county Down native, was a physician and cardiologist responsible for transforming emergency and paramedic medicine into the life-saving service we know it as today. After serving in the Second World War and working as a pathology lecturer at Belfast’s Queens University, he established a world-famous specialist cardiology unit in the Royal Victoria Hospital, introduced the modern system of CPR, and developed the portable defibrillator. His first model in 1965 weighed 70kg and operated on car batteries, but in just three years he had redesigned it to an instrument weighing just 3kg, leading to countless lives being saved since.
That's a very impressive list you have there. It's great to know. Thank you. And just so you know - most people in Ireland prefer to say Ireland and not Eirè. It's a political thing. The British say Eirè to distinguish us from the North of Ireland so lots of us don't recognise that and always say Ireland. 👍
@@ClaireQuinn566 Thanks Clare there are tonnes more Irish inventions and the land of saints and scholars, didn't know that about the term Eire I presumed meant Eireann which is Irish for Ireland Erin go Braith, Irish language. When I say Erin I include the occupied part if Ireland as well as there is only one island of Ireland. My Grand Father fought in the 1916 uprising in Bolands Mills Dublin and Jacobs Biscuit factory, James Cunningham, his medals and hand grenades are in the Irish war museum , he made the grenades lol
WOW. Thank you so much for all that, "I knew we were brilliant, just didn't realise how brilliant we are.
As I kept reading your list, the pride just kept growing and growing, so thank you again. ✊🇮🇪❤️🙏✊🇮🇪❤️🙏
TAYTO ARE GREAT HELLO FROM WEST BELFAST IRELAND
HELLO FROM DUBLIN!
HELLO BACK TOO YA @@MY_CABBAGES_GUY
I grew up with two Irish wolfhounds. They were my protectors, not that I needed them. Both lived until they were 19, missed them lots when they died.
That's a good long age for wolfhounds had a border colly
And was about that age wen he passed 😔
Canny Explorer - you were lucky they lived for so long.
Romans took those to fight lions n shyt . Old ones were bigger
They never live this long, take it from someone who has grown up with them around me and currently have 2 they usually only get to about 11
The oldest recorded lifespan of an Irish Wolfhound is 16 years 6 months. The average lifespan for them is between 5 and 9 years. You were fed a lie or are telling one or they weren’t actually wolfhounds.
Of course soda water is medicinal --- it's combined with whiskey to make "whiskey and soda", and there ain't nothin' more medicinal than that.
I have a lot of familiarity with polar bears in northern Canada, where two thirds of the world's polar bears live. I can vouch that they behave pretty Irish.
Now there's a man of wisdom....
Get your arse over.
Irish brown bears apparently (Google) became extinct 2500 years ago so the link to the polar bear is clearly ancient.
Polar bears are closely related to the grizzly bear not the brown bear.
@@gerardflynn3899 A grizzly bear is a just a race of the brown bear.
@@gallowglass2630sub species not race.
I seen on an Australian tv show that Capital letters and the space between words are also credited to Irish monks.
The Ice Age in Ireland lasted from 30,000 years ago to approximately 14,000 years ago. During that time sea levels dropped and Ireland was joined to Britain and mainland Europe. The ice sheet came from the north-east and covered most of Ireland. I suspect that's how Polar Bears got there.
The Irish are well known for their butter
Kerry Gold!
The Irish treasury is bars of Kerry Gold
There is many firsts by Irish people that the world take for granted today much more than mentioned here.
Actually the Irish firm invented the flavoured crisp/chip in 1954. Plain crisps had been around for a number of years before that. When I was a child you had plain crisps with a small blue bag of salt included in the bag that you added yourself.
I remember those and if remember correctly the company that made them were called Smith's .
@@robertclark2253 They were indeed.

Soda water is primarily a mixer used with whisky - you must've heard the term "a whisky and soda"?
You gotta do a taste test of British and Irish foods/Candy/sweets. It'll blow your mind!
Just don’t tellim about chip butties 🤫
@@megw7312 Oh no , now you've don it !
Completely agree!
I love irish wolf hounds ❤️
You can see why Irish Wolfhounds were in castles.The right size and scale.I did not know about the design of the White House.
Soda water mixed with milk is a truly excellent treatment for an upset stomach but don't try it with sparkling water that will just give you fizzy watery milk.
Irish wolfhounds are beautiful dogs, good natured.
Taytos are a real throwback to my childhood for me. I spent many summers on family farms in both Ulster and Donegal and cheese and onion Taytos were a must have.
Donegal is in Ulster. There are 9 counties in Ulster, 6 of whinch are in Northern Ireland
@@mikekelly5869 Donegal is part of Eire. So is in truth a separate country from Ulster which is British, or rather UK.
@@vinnyganzano1930 Ulster is not part of the UK. 6 of the 9 counties of Ulster are part of the UK. Cavan, Monaghan and Donegal are part of Ulster but are in the political entityknown as Ireland in the English language. I live here and I know.
I’ve recently discovered your channel and find it most interesting. It’s admirable that you have a quest for knowledge on your heritage. I look forward to more information
Thanks Rose, I appreciate that. It's been a lot of fun exploring the Isles and I know I've just touched the surface. :)
How could they leave out Halloween, Samhain. It all started at the hill of ward Ireland
Tayto cheese and onion crisps are yummy, but I remember crisps when I was young called Perri cheese and onion they came with a blue sachet of salt.... they were even more tasty, very strong flavour. And of course fabulous crushed between bread and butter.
"An dTiggan tú?", means Do you Understand in Irish. I speak a bit of the aul' Gaelic meself and love how some words of the language was incorporated over time into English. We often use Irish words in regular sentences in everyday English aswell. Sometimes if funny. The word "craic" (pronounced "crack") means anything from gossip, fun, banter, a good time, atmosphere. So here, we'd say "Whats the Craic?", or "Any craic with ya?". Meaning, Whats going on with ya, any news with you, things like that. Ive asked that to people from outta Ireland, and they immediately assume Im selling drugs. 😀😀☘☘
Cheese and onion crisps on Brennan's bread with loads of Kerry gold and a cuppa tea. Perfect 👍
Sounds fab.
Ireland runs on tea.
Up the Kingdom!
Lyon's tea in the pyramid teabag.
Bears are gone from ireland for atleast 5000 years.The wolf hang around much longer until the 18th century.Its a small ireland there was sadly going to be room for one big omnivore and that was going to be humans
Soda crystals are used for cleaning. I use them with boiling water to soak greasy pans.
My friend had 2 of the dogs, beautiful animals, they ere both over 3 ft tall, up to my chest
My bosses were lawyers and Druids to the core. They flew to Ireland and bought 2 irish wolf hounds. They came tonthe office all the time!!! These massive dogs are big lap dogs, kind of like great danes
We do history in every country because we improve
Tayto cheese and onion crisp sandwich. Probably the greatest Irish food
I remember seeing an Irish Wolfhound for the very first time as a child in a Dublin park, I was both scared and fasinated. I was about 7 y.o.a and this dog was towering over me, and he had a big friendly smile on his face. And funny enough, though It hails from Ireland, it's actually quiet rare to see one in public. I've probably only seen about 7 in my life time and I'm 62 now. That doesn't mean there are very few in Ireland, it just means that they are generally owned by the more priviliged in Ireland, and live in large houses with large private grounds outside of the big cites and towns. They are not a breed you would see on the streets a lot, unlike like other dog breeds, and that's because of their size. They are extremely friendly and a very majestic breed, amazing to see when close up to one. Their head is literally up your neck in height, depending on your own height of course.
Irish here. Love the channel bud
Irish? Really wouldn't have guessed that with a name like Padraic. Always liked that name. Perhaps your could help me in my quest to stop Americans from getting the taste for Bushmills. Don't need a shortage of that. Peace out.
I literally just ordered Tayto Cheese and Onion from Amazon so I can make crisp sandwiches. I have Kerrygold butter, too.
I’ve only seen Tayto in the Bronx I the US. Just anecdotal, I haven’t been everywhere 😀
Polar bears really!!!! That must be when the glaciers were as far as Ireland, thousands of years ago
Tayto Cheese and Onion - yum! I have to wait for friends who go to Belfast to bring me them.
Drew terry they are actually two different companies and products called tayto.The northern irish tayto is not sold in the south and vice versa.There is a theme park in county meath devoted to tayto but again it has nothing to do with the northern tayto
@@gallowglass2630 Northern Ireland has its own theme park at Tayto Castle.
@@georgebarnes8163 Never heard about that
@@georgebarnes8163 Not sure if its the same concept Tayto castle is where they make the crisps and they provide willy wonka style tours,whereas tayto park is a big amusement park with taytos as the theme,but its not a factory tour as such.
Edit The park is now called Emerald park ,tayto have withdrawn sponsorship and it is just an amusement park now
@@gallowglass2630 Yep, the Germans sold of the park a while ago
You should look into james hoban.He learned his trade as an architect at a time when he as a catholic faced discrimination under the penal laws in ireland.Not particularly in this list ,but most of the inventions have come from the Anglo irish protestant acendancy because it was those who had access to education and the best university Trinity like Joly.
There are 2 types of Tayto. The yellow cheese and onion bag is from Northern Ireland, and the red one is from the Republic of Ireland (yes, I know it's just called Ireland, trying to make the distinction).
The ROI one is nicknamed Stayto in NI. If a United Ireland ever happens, the Tayto/Stayto question will need to be answered, perhaps in an Island wide referendum. Or selling on alternate days with the fancy ones sold on Sundays.
That sounds fair but there would have to be "papist fancy crisp Sundays" and "prod fancy crisp Sundays" with a rotating system of boycotts. Needless to say the crisps would all be made in the same factory for reasons of efficiency.....
@@mikekelly5869 We will have to get them to say st stephens day instead of boxing day aswell.
@@gallowglass2630 that could be a question on the referendum too.
The NI packs should be named sayno!
@@ko0974 that'll be the special edition DUP packs, with the special edition orange flavoured crisps.
Just thinking about bears, is there any truth to the rhyme:
Black = Step Back
Brown = Lay Down
White = Good Night
Always wondered if that was factual or not. Ps: I love your channel. Tracy from Dublin, Ireland
Soda water is great for an upset stomach it also contains quinnene
The Polar Bear capital of the world is Churchill, Manitoba, Canada. Two thirds of the worlds polar bears are in Canada. Other countries that have some are Russia, Norway, Greenland and some in Alaska.
I live about 6 miles away from the Tayto factory in Northern Ireland. It's based in an old castle in Tandragee and they run tours of it during the summer. Although everyone raves about the cheese 'n' onion flavour, I prefer the salt and vinegar or wuster sauce ones!
Its crazy how Tayto is NI is so different to Tayto in Republic ... its 100% cheese and oniom for me and cheese and onion tayto sandwich lol
I prefer northern Taytos but the Free Staytos aren’t bad 😉
It's still not the original
I never leave Belfast to head back to my adopted English home without stocking up on two essentials: Taylor C/O, and Veda bread. I've never understood why soda bread is available in English supermarkets, but Veda has never made it across the Irish Sea.
p.s. Does anyone know when Tanderagee became Tandragee, and why?
We had two Irish Wolfhounds when I was a teenager. They’re really too big for a normal house. You’d need a castle to have them really.
Soda water is a mixer mostly drunk with whiskey. I have heard Americans (mainly Texans) speak of "Branch & Soda" too. It is sometimes used to dilute wet stains.
Whiskey another Irish invention.
@@BrianBorumaMacCennetig367 Like the spelling, the true place of whisky's origin remains a point of deliberation between Ireland and Scotland, both claiming to have invented the spirit. North of the border, records of the Scottish Exchequer first evidenced a history of whisky in Scotland in production in the late 1400s. While distillation processes have been used around the globe for centuries, the first distillation of whisky as we know it today took place in Scotland in the early 1000's.
@@sharonmartin4036 Whiskey originated in Ireland. The oldest mention of whiskey comes from Ireland in the annals of clonmacnoise it mentions a alcoholic beverage called “aqua vita.” aka uisce beatha which is whiskey, the word whiskey comes from the Irish word Uisce, being drank at winter when traditionally barely or malted grain was all that grew making it unlikely to be grapes. The chief who drank it died of alcohol poisoning which sounds like whiskey to me which gets into those high ranges basically moonshine.
Irish monks probably learned how to distill from the spanish during their travels and applied the technique to malted grain around the 10th century inventing whiskey.
Scotland didn't even have Christianity or reading and writing both things were an import from Ireland along with whiskey.
The Irish had the means to learn and apply distilling the scottish didn't.
@@BrianBorumaMacCennetig367 LIKE THE SPELLING, THE TRUE PLACE OF WHISKY'S ORIGIN REMAINS A POINT OF DELIBERATION. The first distillation of whisky AS WE KNOW IT TODAY took place in Scotland in the early 1000's. Early historic Scotland was a melting pot of different groups - the Britons, the Picts, the Angles, the Gaels (Scots) and the Norse. (No Irish?) Both the Irish and Scottish Celts learned to read and write from the Romans, the Greeks and the Norse so NOT an import from Ireland. Take your bias and sh*ve it. Goodbye.
@@sharonmartin4036 As I have told you the oldest reference to whiskey comes from the Irish annals of clonmacnoise in which a cheiftan drank whiskey and died of alcohol poising.
There's no evidence of whiskey being distilled in Scotland in the 10th century you pulled that out of your arse. The Irish learned the practice in spain in the 10th century.
The oldest writing we have from scotland is from the island of iona and the book of deer both were written by Irish monks and are later in date, the picts had no writing and neither did the scoti of Argyll, it's only when the Irish start reading and writing do we see any writing in scotland by irish monks.
No bias only the truth. Whiskey is objectively speaking irish in origin.
It was Irish monks who preserved Christianity through the dark ages
Polar bears live on Svalbard, an island that belongs to Norway. They're not walking in our streets, like many people believe 😅
The first military submersible was Turtle (1775), a hand-powered acorn-shaped device designed by the American David Bushnell to accommodate a single person.[14] It was the first verified submarine capable of independent underwater operation and movement, and the first to use screws for propulsion.[15]
Human powered (submersible) wooden barrel that failed. (Not a submarine) He copied Cornelis Drebbel whose submersible carried 16 people. Bushnell was most famous for finding a way to detonate explosives underwater. Here is the difference.
The difference between a submarine and a submersible is [that] a submarine has enough power to leave port and come back to port under its own power. A submersible has very limited power reserves, so it needs a mother ship that can launch it and recover it.”
Not a true submarine.
We have a TAYTO factory here in Northamptonshire, England.
There are NO bears in Ireland now.
Only when you get in the shower 😂🤣🤣😂🙂😁
Thats the Northern Ireland Tayto .The republics tayto is a different company
Seen them in both the northern and southern Ireland but I live 20 miles from the Northants border and I've never seen them here?
@@gallowglass2630 you dope tayto is from Ireland...there is in-between...
You dope tayto is Irish... that is that...stop pretending that tayto is English
He's talking about the 'modern' submarine, but in fact they go back even further
In 1776 David Bushnell built 'the turtle', a wooden barrel like device, it had a propeller and a drill augur for making holes in ships.
William Bourne designed a protyotype in 1578
There's a wiki article (of course)
Many years ago, the top half of the UK was covered in thick ice
The most extensive ice sheet of the ice ages in Britain reached down to Finchley, now a suburb of north London, so most of Britain was glaciated. Really, only the present-day location of London and the land south of London escaped glaciation.
Not a true submarine.
Tayto(republics tayto not the northern brand) have a theme park in county meath not far from dublin ,when you come to ireland pay it a visit your daughter would love it.
Edit As cez tv has said its no longer in existence in terms of Tayto anyway.
Unfortunately it's no longer Tayto Park. The name changed to Emerald Park and the sponsorship with Tayto has ended

You haven't lived until you've had Tayto cheese n onion!! 😋
We keep tayto for ourselves yum yum
They had submarines in the first world war and underwater exploration using subs was even earlier
Ireland was covered by an ice cap in the last ice age except for a small area of the southwest which would have been connected to europe so its not really surprising since ireland was on the edge of europe its difficult to see where else the polar bear could have developed from further east the intersection between the sea and land wouldn't be the same afterall a polar bear is a semi marine creature.

Get on a tatyo sandwich absolutely delicious bread Kerrygold butter and cheese and onion tatyo... soda water/tonic water has quinine in it which helps with restless legs syndrome
I do love some Kerrygold butter. It's the only butter I like to buy at the grocery store. Quinine is excellent for many things and is a great immune booster. I never knew it was in soda water though.
@@reactingtomyroots have you a P.O Box il send you some tatyo from ireland !
Soda water doesn't contain quinine, that's tonic water. I'm not sure about soda water boosting ur immune system, but tonic water does & has several other health benefits. I know this as I have a severe allergy to quinine...it 'boosts' my immune system so much that it causes my body to attack & kill my platelets,so my blood won't clot, & also attacks my liver & other organs. I can drink soda water though with no issues.

Most Polar Bears live in Canada. They would have left Ireland with the receding glaciers at the end of the last ice age.

The population of polar bears is NOT declining. On the contrary, it's spiralling out of control. The polar bear population has increased threefold since the 1970s. Incidentally, bears became extinct in Ireland over 2,000 years ago, so I'd love to know how they got to the north pole.
No bears in Ireland for a couple thousand years
I grew up knowing that Galore meant a large amount of things. Polar Bears are Grizzly Bears with a White Coat.
Not exactly although they can cross breed and have.

I remember as a kid (around 4-5 years old) I mistook a bottle of soda water thinking it was cream soda. Bad mistake as soda water on its own is foul. Also experimented by mixing orange squash with milk to make an orange milkshake which too was foul. And even went as far as trying Coleman's mustard on a mince pie as it was yellow and rhymed with custard - one bite and it was in the bin, much to the amusement of my parents who found it. Now, English mustard and pork pies go well together, but for mince pies it's custard and definitely not mustard. You've got to experiment to see what works and what doesn't.
My gran was from Kildare and she introduced us to frothy coffee/hot milky coffee/all milk coffee (or what's commonly called 'latte' now) back in the '70s. She always had packets of mint Viscount biscuits and Jammy Dodgers whenever we visited her up in Scotland (she moved there in the 1930s) and made the best vegetable and ham hock soup. Even though half my family are Irish, I've never even been there.

Polar Bears live in the Artic, where as Penguins live in Antarctica.
The man who designed the submarine was from liscannor in Co Clare. Not to far from me.
You asked for suggestions, check out the tradition of the Blarney Stone. There is a fairly good one by Rick Steve's Europe. edit: I found the video for you - ruclips.net/video/OVWzUc4cQ6c/видео.html
No bears or wolves or elke left in Ireland.
What he was talking about is cross breeding between polar bears and Irish brown bears in previous ice-ages, Similar to how they are mixing with grizzlies now.
It's hard to get the Irish out of you once we get in XD.
There were subs in the Civil war IIRC.. Rudimentary ones but still subs
There was no coexistence between polar bears and grizzlies in the Canadian Arctic. It is only recently that the odd grizzly has been spotted near Churchill, Manitoba. Quite likely part of the effects global warming is having. Also I would think life for a grizzly would be more difficult ic Arctic conditions. Grizzlies are omnivores, as well as meat they eat plants, roots, and berries, which would be non existent on the tundra. Polar bears are straight carnivores their main prey being the ringed seal. Polar bears can catch on land but can also dive in pursuit of prey. Even though grizzlies are good swimmers, they are no match for the swimming skills of a polar bear. Polars are very swift in water and have been known to swim distances of 200 miles non stop.
