**If this video reaches 10k views we'll do a part 2 with different snacks when we are back in the UK in March. So drop some interesting snack suggestions in the comments, please!** Thanks for watching our UK Taste Test! We love trying candy and snacks so filming this was a blast. We really wanted to try many other things but then our video would have been 3 hours long 😂. Do you have a favorite UK snack? And most importantly, do you put milk in your tea? 😆- Brandon & Anja
Hahahaha. We actually did eat with cheese in this video, right after we ate it straight up, but it just didn't make the cut because the video was going too long. It was even better with cheese though!
I absolutely love Turkish Delight ❤ the reason the twirl seemed “powdery” is because it’s seized chocolate, that’s why it’s crumbly. Flakes are the same x
We thought it was rose, but it didn't seem to be listed on the package! And definitely not in the ingredients. I guess the rose must be included in the "flavourings" portion of the ingredients list. Haha.
@@djgrant8761 Anja was reading Reddit posts about Fry's, and one person said they put them in the freezer before eating. They don't freeze, but it gives the jelly a firmer texture. I think that would be better, to be honest. 🤔
Yes, even the things we didn't quite like mostly grew on us after we filmed the video two weeks ago. I (Anja) have been eating Marmite every morning 😂. I think I figured out how to eat it so it tastes good, haha. We'll be back in the UK over Easter. Any Easter snacks that are mandatory to eat? Thanks for watching! 🙂
As a Britt I can say every Christmas I woke up to a Terry's chocolate orange and a Clementine in my Christmas stocking because honestly is Christmas really complete with a couple orange's? 😂
Hahaha. Well, my mom certainly agreed with that! Always clementines in my stocking as well, and we used to get the cheap little dollar peel-off lotto tickets as well. Chocolate, fruit and childhood gambling. What else do you need, really. 😂
When i was a child my stocking/pillow case we always got an orange, mr matey bubble bath, flannel and chocolate coins without fail! We never had a chocolate orange in our stockings but its my favorite chocolate and every year now my sisters buy me 1 each 🤣🙌🏻
@@wherearewe-yt I’m one of those weird people that stores chocolate in the fridge. I always have Turkish Delight in the fridge. A lot of people don’t like the perfume taste but I love it. I also enjoy eating Musk sticks. You mentioned Jaffa Cakes, in Australia we have Jaffas. Jaffas are little chocolate balls encased in a thin orange shell.
@@djgrant8761 We actually don't even mind rose flavor. We've had some rose flavored desserts in the Middle East, Turkey, and in North Africa - and have actually quite enjoyed them. But they were all with pastries, and the rose flavour often came from rose water or syrup. I think the combination with the chocolate throws it off for us! Those Jaffa balls look interesting. If we make it back to Australia, we'll have to make a snack video and try em'!
Little tip for you, in winter run the jar of Marmite under hot water for a minute. It makes spreading it so much easier, you'll rip the toast up otherwise. Branston pickle is best in a sandwich with a mature or vintage cheddar.
One tip we've been using from the comments section, has been mixing the marmite directly with the butter in a little ramekin before hand. Spreads evenly, and easily! We went from not liking it at first, to eating it at breakfast every day. Ha!
Marmite is stuffed full of B vitamins, I love dipping buttery toast top with marmite in a sweet cup of tea, I always have done since I was a kid and I still do, you can do that with coffee too, yummy!
I'm a brit, I never heard of Toast and Jam tea I wouldn't use it, try the toast with PG Tips, Yorkshire Tea or similar english black tea, one or two teaspoons of sugar and add milk, fold your marmite toast in half, dunk and eat it whole
We're heading back to Canada soon, but we'll be in the UK before we do. Maybe I'll have to grab some of the Cadbury bars from the UK that we have in Canada, and do a side by side comparison! Haha.
I'd love to send you a box of UK stuff if you ever want to do a candy/food swap! I adore Tunnocks products, a very old fashioned British brand :) you guys are so great to watch! Was very happy to see people trying Marmite and actually buttering the toast first, though I love my Marmite super salty so I'd have it even thicker than you had it. There's so many Marmite products here, like Marmite cheese, hummus, peanut butter, crackers, ricecakes, nuts! AND I was so so excited to see the mince pies/christmas pudding, as I am a huge fan of both (unlike all my family and friends)! I have my pies plain and cold, but always heat the pudding. If you get a fancy pudding, it should have nuts in it!
We have a second UK snack video that we released a week ago, so you should also check that out! And funny you mentioned it..we ALSO have a Marmite snack video coming out a few weeks from now, where we tried a bunch of different types of Marmite spreads and snacks. We grew to love it after this first snack video, and now we can't get enough of it. Hahaha. Thanks so much for watching! We have SEVEN more UK videos coming, so subscribe and stay tuned.
The best flavoured cheese&onion crisps ever were KP from the eighties in the yellow bag,the flavour was incredible and even now I get flashbacks about them,so when they invent time travel you know where my first stop is going to be😊
Agreed! We were living in Istanbul for about three months, and we became absolutely obsessed. The rose flavor is still good, but the varieties with nuts were incredible!
Twiglets like Marmite are made with Yeast Extract, so have a very very savory strong umami taste - That is what divides opinions on these products. Some people love the taste, whilst others hate it.. there doesnt seem to be an inbetween. The best way to enjoy twiglets is with a beer or ale, the two flavor compliment each other. Both products however have health benefits as they are full of fibre, protien and B Vitamins
We actually grew to love both Twiglets, and Marmite in a short amount of time. 😂 Marmite is great when it's not the "prominent" flavor. With the proper amount of Marmite VS Butter, it really shines! I particularly love grilled cheese with a marmite/butter mixture spread on both sides of the bread before toasting. Anja uses it on her toast every day now as well. Twiglets just have such a satisfying crunch, that we kept on craving them after a while. Would 100% buy both again. If we lived in the UK, we'd always have Marmite in the house now. Hahaha..
When you're back in the UK you've got to try Scottish tablet and maybe Edinburgh rock, it's not anything like the traditional seaside rock. If you've never heard of rock I suggest looking it up. It's as British as you can get. Also try Branston original as it's more chunky. Enjoyed your video guys.👍
Thanks for watching! 😊 I (Anja) think I've had the Scottish tablet before but that was years ago. Not sure about the rock. We can't wait to go back and revisit Scotland, though.
Putting Turkish delight in chocolate is one of the worst culinary acts of violence that Britain ever committed. It’s genuinely nice, Turkish delight in chocolate is like putting a block of nice cheese in a pie crust.
It didn't make it into the video, but I mentioned how my parents are both major tea drinks. My dad always has biscuits with his tea, and we always had digestives in the house. I'll have to grab some when we get back to Canada, and get to dunking!
That was a good honest review ,nice to see somone with adult palettes ,top tip pop the jar for 5 seconds in the microwave and it melts marmite into a runny easy to spread thin film , doesnt hurt the marmite.
We try all foods with an open mind! From marmite, to sheep's head or rooster testicle. We try it all. 😂 We really enjoyed everything. I (Brandon) am going to give marmite another go. We've received so many interesting tips on how to use it, that I've gotta try some of them. Anja is already a convert. Haha.
Just start in tiny amounts , it's also a flavour enhancer so makes anything you drink while eating taste better , proper Yorkshire tea and marmite toast is a thing of beauty
you need to dip the biscuits in the tea! In the morning, I make 2 pieces of toast, one with a sweet jam and one with marmite. I eat the marmite first, followed by the jam toast, you need a sugary tea/coffee.
We actually have a Marmite video coming out in the future. We tried a few different Marmite spreads and a bunch of Marmite snacks. We've fallen in love with it since this video! 😅
Tunnocks tea cakes aren't really with tea yeah... And the coconut tunnocks I've never even heard of 😂😅 the best tunnocks and the most common are the tunnocks wafers and tunnocks tea cakes. Hob nobs are my favourite dunking biscuit. The sticky toffee flavour though to me is far too sweet. The original just... Chocolate hobnobs is where it is at! And please... The not dunking them is a newbie/rookie mistake 😂 I can see you asking others in the comment section 'doesn't that make them fall apart'... Yes but if held in for short enough time No. Lol 😂 chocolate hobnobs/ sticky toffee when held in for a short time melts the chocolate a little and warms up the toffee in sticky toffees case... And voila a transformation occurs. Levelling up the biscuit to a whole new level You can get pom bears in the uk just for info 😊 Twiglets are awful... Haha sorry... But yeah twiglets are marmite in flavour which marmite is a divisive subject in the UK etc their branding says it in fact. 'You either love it or hate it!' and I... I am a hater 😂 marmite is awful too to me hahaha I was like wow when you had the branston pickle raw as is 😂 like nooooo branston pickle is to go with cheese and the cheese is not optional... Either branston with cheese sandwich or a toastie! Or on cheese and crackers or it's served sometimes on a ploughman's lunch which is a salad with ham and cheese here in the uk the branston is usually served to the side or in a little pot or ramekin etc 😊 it's especially good on salty things... The sweet with the sour and salty is amazing... Like red onion marmalade with blue cheese or brie! The tangy with creamy and salty is a phenomenal combo ❤ Ribena is super sweet and you can buy it in cordial form to mix with water! But you can buy still or fizzy like you had for when on the go in the day etc 😊 Terry's chocolate orange in you're stocking each?!!? Wow your parents were generous... Usually there's one at Christmas and it's shared between the whole family 😂 Turkish delight is another divisive thing... Like marmite and twiglets 😂 one thing is Turkish delight isn't British technically... Key is in the name... Turkey 😂😊 And twirl is banging the mint choc version not so much 😂 but then I dislike mint chocolate stuff I won't lie 😂 and double decker is amazing... Hands down one of the best chocolate bars in existence 😂 and fruit pastilles are fantastically good! And lord knows Christmas pudding is awful too 😂 you picked out all the things I don't like 😂 and I'm not picky at all rest assured 😂 and mince pies is usually served with proper double cream or we will do a Bailey's cream or brandy cream or whisky cream with... Christmas is a time of excess so we usually go that much further... Squirty cream is okay but yeah... Mince pies with brandy butter is a favourite of mine 😂😂 and you can use any brandy or rum or whisky etc for the burning alcohol on the chocolate pudding and nah it's not a crime to put cream on etc... why didn't you eat them with the custard?!!? 😂😅😮
Hahaha. So BeardMeatsFood wasn't full of shit! Off camera, I said to Anja that I think the original Tunnock's without coconut would be better. The best part about them is that nice chew, and the coconut just kind of ruins the experience a bit by falling all over the place and making a mess. Still good though! So do most people add milk to their tea then!? Hahaha. I feel like dipping biscuits into tea without milk, would almost be like dipping them into hot water, would it not? We will definitely have to try some different biscuits next time. There are so many we missed out on. But we loved those sticky toffee pudding Hobnobs! We actually ended up loving the Twiglets. They have such a satisfying crunch, we both kept craving them out of no where, and finished the whole bag. Anja loves marmite now as well, even though she hated it at first. I'm still not a fan, so that's all for her. 😂 We actually ate the Branston with cheese right after we ate it straight up on toast. It just didn't make it into the video, because the video ended up being too long. Didn't know it was so controversial to eat it on it's own! Hahahaha. We've been told twice that no one does that. I'm sure you won't be the last. 😂 My mom always LOADED our stockings. Tangerines, and a Terry's Chocolate orange were always a given on Christmas morning. I agree with the Double Decker. I absolutely love them! We're visiting the UK again soon, and I am going to bring some home to my family when we visit Canada. The mince pies were actually really good, but served with Bailey's cream sounded freakin' amazing. The pudding was okay. Anja liked it better than me. Hahaha. Thank for watching!
@@wherearewe-yt yeah... So we put milk in our tea. Black tea like black coffee is for sociopathic people 🤣 and very fair... Yeah more twiglets and marmite for you then as I'm not consuming/partaking 🤣 when you get taste tests of 'british' food I swear the videos always put in atleast one of the 'controversial' food items we have... There is always at least twiglets or marmite or jellied eels or mushy peas in there. Because they know they will get either outrage comments or people arguing in the comments about how British food is bad etc 🙄 And yeah tunnocks wafers are so good 🤤 and yeah BeardMeatsFood knows his stuff for sure 😊 Christmas is usually excessive in everything to be fair... When I say about the Terry's shared between a family... Usually because there's a ton of sweets and chocolate and snacks too... So 1 shared is usually enough 😊 Oh and yeah... Traditionally at Christmas we also have brandy snaps (they don't contain brandy anymore though) which are like a caramel cylinder... And we will pipe brandy cream or Bailey's cream etc into the middle of 😊
The Toast & Jam tea is not a fruit tea. It's a blend of black teas with flavoring. So the milk actually works really well. We've been drinking it like that now. Thanks for watching!
Maybe we need to try that for the next snack video. We'd never even heard of it! Had no idea there were multiple types of marmite. Apparently there are special editions versions some times as well?
Fry's Turkish Delight is amazing, but most definitely its own thing - its nothing like traditional Turkish delight (which we also get here) so its definitely a bit of a misnomer
Of all the things we tried this day, it's the one thing we still don't like..haha. We both grew to love marmite after figuring out what type of ratio works for us. We're just not a fan of that jelly, chocolate combo. According the the comments section, it certainly does have a fanbase!
The Branston is a sandwich pickle spread but can be eaten as a side with some meals. I love it on all sandwiches and I eat it a lot if I have a side salad with a meal. Keep up the great videos. :)
We're obsessed. It's actually almost completely gone already. 😅 Luckily we will be back in the UK (briefly) soon, so we will 100% be buying some more! It's so dang good! Thanks for watching. 😀
We put it in the microwave for a few minutes as instructed on the box, but honestly, it was probably not long enough 😅. Is it supposed to be piping hot or just warm?
@@wherearewe-yt yes, it should come out piping hot with steam rising from it otherwise it will be dry because the suet (a type of buttery fat) will not have melted. Traditionally it was steamed or left in boiling water to cook, but microwaving is fine too. Christmas pudding is a love or loath type of dessert, I love it especially with custard. PS first time watching your videos, great reaction video.
@@DavidDoyleOutdoors then it definitely wasn't quite long enough 😅, it was a bit warm but not super hot. It still tasted yummy. I bet it's even better if done correctly, haha. Next time!
I realised that afterwards 😅. I (Anja) always thought they were German because I grew up eating them. But they seem to exist in other countries, like Hungary, too. They're definitely a nostalgic flavour to me. Thanks for watching!
Which type? The Fry's, or the proper stuff?! Haha. Anja was reading a reddit page all about the Fry's Turkish Delight debate. It's a hate or love it thing for sure. 😅
It’s divides opinions just like marmite but I love it. Turkish delight from turkey comes in all sorts of fancy flavours and products like nuts or coconut are added to create different textures with different appearances but they also do the plain type which is similar in texture to the fry’s Turkish delight.
That's super interesting! I guess it must have been something brought over from those immigrating to Canada from the UK. I never really questioned many of these things growing up, but each time we're back in the UK, I always discover a new food, snack, or tradition that I grew up with is actually British. To be fair, both sides of my family ultimately came from the UK if you go back enough- so I suppose it makes sense. 😂
@@joshtiley7008 They actually did have the Terry's Mint version in that British shop we had visit in person, but we already had the mint Twirl, so we wanted to get the OG flavor, especially since I hadn't had it in ages. Thanks for watching! 🍻
We've tried a few flavors of Tyrrells, and we really love them. Their veg crisps are delicious as well. They have a few interesting looking flavors that we've never had, that we'd love to try!
Why are none of us Brits talking about the TEA? ‘Toast and Jam’?! Pass. Tea without milk?! HARD PASS 😂 I’m an English boi and have never seen toast and jam tea, nor would I drink it! Still not seen a video of a foreigner doing English breakfast tea properly 😭
Hahaha. You're not the first! Don't knock it til' ya try it! We tried it with milk and a tiny bit of sugar, and it's quite good that way. 😜 We've had tea in a few of our other videos, and have tried a lot of the more common teas like Early Grey, and English Breakfast before. We wanted to try something that sounded a bit more.."unusual". 😂
@@jpw6893 Hahaha. Anja and I had this conversation afterwards! I've never seen anyone buy a Big Turk bar in Canada either, but they've existed forever, so people must buy them. Guess we found out the truth with this video!
@@wherearewe-yt they expanded the flavours a while ago, did some Limited editions, lemon and a cherry flavour. Fry's is owned by Cadbury if you didn't know.
Anja is already a marmite convert! We actually realized we were nearly out of butter when we went to film the marmite scene, so we didn't put nearly enough on. I'm going to give it another go, now that we've got some. I haven't tried it since! Haha.
@@wherearewe-yt for a beginner, a good way to get an even spread is to mix a small amount of Marmite with some softened butter in a dish and then spread that mixture on the hot toast. Personally I recommend topping that with freshly sliced tomato, which adds some moisture and a touch of sweetness to balance out the salty umami of the Marmite.
I feel the need to report back with my marmite findings. I mixed marmite and butter together, microwaved it for a few seconds so it could spread, then make a marmite grilled cheese (as someone else suggested). It was amazing. Hahaha.
Gibt's wohl jetzt auch mit dunkler Schokolade aber ohne Kokos. Vielleicht kann ich ja einen nächstes Mal mitbringen, falls wir gerade aus Großbritannien kommen 🙂
Oh yea big difference they're soft as 💩 comparable to proper rowntrees fruit gums, accept no imitation. Used to be made with gelatine but they may be halalificated by now not too sure 🤷🏻♂️
Quavers are a weird one,you never think when you want some crisps that quavers will be your first choice but when someone gives them to you they are addictive to eat and one bag is never enough.
Both spreads are great with cheese. Try that marmite but as Grilled cheese. Branston is a sandwich and not toast based topping. One guy ftom a band from Boston called King's of nothing loved the stuff at a friend's house in London after a gig. British drinking tea and coffee after midnight with Boston-Irish punks....
Does Canada get the real Cadbury’s, or the Hersheys made American crud? Although there’s less difference these days since it was bought out and started cutting corners…
Not sure, but Cadbury in Canada is apparently made by "Mondelez Canada". It's definitely tasty and they have a few Canada only Cadbury bars that don't exist in the US:
My brother always considered me weird because I put Branston (only chunky the smooth stuff is awful) on fish and chips. When he was dating his now wife they had fish and chips with her parents. She actually put Branston on her fish and chips. Her parents apologised thinking my brother would find it strange but he told them his brother was the other British person who had this strange habit😁
lays and walkers where bought out by pepsi co. basically lays started out as a homewear companmy before wlakers existed. the nwalkers came into existance making crisps (chips) then later on lays stopped doing homewear and started making crisps. then pepsi gobbled them up, so lays is the older company but walkers have made crisps longer than lays
Interesting! I'd love to try some Walkers flavors that are uniquely British the next time we're in the UK. I (Brandon) have never had an, besides the Quavers we tried in this video. Have any suggestions??
fun fact the germans and english get on well (despite the fact we complai nabout each other a lot and have a lot of banter ) but our dislike of each other comes from us beign so similar to each other and wont admit it lol because the "english" where a germanic tribe originally so have a lot of similarities
True, I made a lot of English friends, and of course, Scottish ones since I went to university there. I always felt completely at home there. However, one year the Football World Cup was going on when I was working with lots of people from England and they had a lot of things to say to me about it 😂. I love how British people always joke around with sarcasm and "take the piss". Germans are similar in that way as we are quite direct. I've lived in North America for a few years as well and there people tend to not always have the same humour, haha.
well the "engel tribe where from southern denmark/western germany and fled before the romans, and fled to britain. thats why our language is based on germanic :) @@wherearewe-yt also notice by our love of beer between the 2 nations lol
@@cyberash3000 yes, although people love to drink in Germany, I was actually surprised how much people from the UK can drink when I first moved there as a student 😂. It was like a sport, haha
Walkers was its own company until being bought out by Pepsi Co (Lays) in fact they were better before, my gran used to sell them because of the freshly cooked taste which they no longer have, just the generic crisp now
It's funny you mention that - we actually dipped them in a blue cheese cream cheese spread later on, and it was great. We actually ended up really loving the Twiglets, even on their own! They have such a satisfying crunch, we kept going back to them. We'd buy them again for sure!
my favorite chocolate is most cadburys chocolate but the best one is marvelous creations by cadbury which is normal chocolate with jelly beans and popping candy And your answer to the terry's chocolate oranges yes we normally get at least one for christmas i have never known someone to heat up a mince pie and i know loads of prople that like them i personally dont
When we travel to the UK, we typically only take a small backpack because that's all the budget airlines allow. We are never usually there for more than a few days at a time! We we be back in the UK soon though, so if this video takes off, we may do a (smaller) part 2! We will also potentially have a UK fast food video, and will have some videos from Northern Ireland coming up. That'll probably be early April when we are able to release that stuff.
@@wherearewe-ytbeware though cos as delicious as it is, piccalilli has a bit of a kick 😉 but saying that, it might not be that “Kicky” for you! 😄 but it’s really nice - try it with breaded ham in a crusty bread roll… Lush!
I think I’m the only person in the world who likes those Turkish delight bars, you definitely spread tried the marmite very thick, try it under melted cheddar on toast x
haha, there seem to be a lot people in the comments saying they like the Turkish delight bar, too 😆. The Marmite has actually grown on us but we've used it a lot more sparingly. Melted cheddar on top sounds yummy 🙂
Since this video we've become obsessed with Marmite. A grilled cheese Marmite is one of our go-to's now! If you haven't already subscribed, you should, because we have a video coming out where we tried all things Marmite (snacks and different Marmite spreads).
I (Anja) actually love Galaxy the most. I'd always get minstrels and the caramel bar back in the days. I wanted Brandon to try some but the shop was out of stock for Galaxy. Cadbury and Nestle are pretty good. Although, we tried the Yorkie one by Nestle when we visited the UK last time and I couldn't believe it was a plain block of chocolate and nothing else 😂
Hahaha. You're right - it is! It was still delicious! As I said to others, we did try it with cheese right after this, but we cut it out to make the video shorter. Didn't know "raw dogging Branston on toast" was so controversial. 😂
Haha..we've had normal English tea before so we wanted to try something new. Toast and Jam flavor seemed quite intriguing, I couldn't pass it up 😅. The smell is truly divine but the taste was underwhelming. Maybe it's because we had it plain. We'll have another cup later today and we'll add milk and sugar. Maybe it'll be a bit better that way. Thanks for watching! 🙂
I LOVE marmite!! I'm lucky enough to have grown up eating Cadburys, Galaxy and Milka so Hersheys acting makes me want to vomit, I think the same goes for everyone I know haha 😂A warm mince pie with brandy butter/custard 👌👌 (also in the UK, we just call chocolate 'chocolate', not candy or sweets 😊
Well, if you love MarmIte, then you'll be interested to hear that we actually have a UK snack video coming up where we try ALL things Marmite. 😉 We are currently filming like.. 8 videos in the UK, so it won't be out for quite a while, but it's comin'! Haha.
Mince pies should be warm with brandy butter (or rum butter) The coconut tunnocks are lovely but really hard to get even over here, i had to go to other side of city to get some. Quavers cheese are really lovely but avoid the other flavours, the Prawn and BBQ ones are actually gross.
Brandy butter sounds delicious! If we ever find ourselves in the UK for the holiday season, we'll have to try it. The Tunnocks were great. Anja told me after the fact that we have tried the original version together when we were in Edinburgh, years ago. I have no memory of it - so I'll have to give the original another go.😂 I think I'd prefer without the coconut! Hahaha. I wanted to try the Prawn cocktail version! I've never tried that as a crisp flavour. We were even thinking of trying regular Walkers Prawn Cocktail if we make a part two.
@@martynnotman3467 That's nice to hear because I was actually really looking forward to them! Are there any other flavours you'd recommend? We have one vote for Smoky Bacon so far! Haha.
@@wherearewe-yt smoky bacon taste lovely but smell like dog treats. The Chicken are nice, the best were Worcestershire Sauce but i think they have been discontinued.
That tea is actually a black tea blend, not really a fruit tea. We drank it with a bit of milk and sugar, and it was much better! We're actually headed to the UK a few weeks from now, and plan on doing a part two. What type of tea should we try next??
Yorkshire tea with milk and sugar, leave the tea bag in for bout 3-4 minutes then take it out and add the milk and sugar. Try dipping in plain hobnobs and plain digestive. But don't dip it for too long cause' the biscuit will fall in 😂 also, get a penguin biscuit, bite the top corner and the bottom opposite corner, dip it the tea an suck the tea through like a straw, as soon as you taste the tea come through the penguin, immediately take it out before it falls in and eat quickly😊 it's amazing 👍❤❤❤
haha, nothing of course 😅, Brandon's great grandparents even came from the UK 😊. However, one thing that might be wrong with them is that some of them apparently like jellied eels, as we learned in London 😝
Haha, but it's a British brand and it's being sold at Tesco in the UK and Amazon UK 😆. Someone must buy it, just like someone must buy Turkish Delights 😅. We actually put milk and sugar in the tea today and it was quite delicious after all.
Hahaha. We're actually drinking it right now. With a little bit of sugar and milk, it's freakin' delicious! Much better than with just hot water. We've had a lot of Early Grey and English Breakfast varieties, so we wanted to try something a bit more unique for the video. Any other teas you suggest we try?
Haha, I was a poor student and only survived solely on Boots meal deals 😂. I never tried Haggis either when I lived there because I wasn't adventurous enough back then. I only realized a few years later what I had missed 😋.
Its shoking the amount of houses burnt down this xmas there were only 3 deaths. Thats not tea bugger buiscuits with that rubbish. Lived in Scotland you must know what tea realy is.and thats not tea. Hob Nobs are the best great for dunking, learn to dunk.
haha, it might be shocking, but I actually didn't really drink tea while living in Scotland, although I was offered tea many times a day by my flat mate 😂. The teabags weren't that bad, but we'll make sure to get proper tea next time we are in the UK and we'll dunk the Hob Nobs 😅. However, don't the biscuits get a bit soggy, since tea is kind of like water? Or is milk mandatory? Thanks for watching!
**If this video reaches 10k views we'll do a part 2 with different snacks when we are back in the UK in March. So drop some interesting snack suggestions in the comments, please!**
Thanks for watching our UK Taste Test! We love trying candy and snacks so filming this was a blast. We really wanted to try many other things but then our video would have been 3 hours long 😂. Do you have a favorite UK snack? And most importantly, do you put milk in your tea? 😆- Brandon & Anja
Straight up rawdogging Branston on toast is wild 😅 definitely try it with cheese
Hahahaha. We actually did eat with cheese in this video, right after we ate it straight up, but it just didn't make the cut because the video was going too long. It was even better with cheese though!
Ha ha ha 😂 I only have it as a cheese and pickle sandwich
Lol, funny comment 😂
I absolutely love Turkish Delight ❤ the reason the twirl seemed “powdery” is because it’s seized chocolate, that’s why it’s crumbly. Flakes are the same x
Interesting. I thought chocolatiers usually avoid seized chocolate. I think I had a Flake in the past and liked it a bit better.
I grew up with fry’s Turkish delight, and honestly I love it, the jelly is flavoured with rose btw
We thought it was rose, but it didn't seem to be listed on the package! And definitely not in the ingredients. I guess the rose must be included in the "flavourings" portion of the ingredients list. Haha.
My favourite chocolate. Always have in the fridge.
@@djgrant8761 Anja was reading Reddit posts about Fry's, and one person said they put them in the freezer before eating. They don't freeze, but it gives the jelly a firmer texture. I think that would be better, to be honest. 🤔
@@wherearewe-yt I keep my chocolate in the fridge because I prefer cold chocolate to room temperature or melted.
Me too it’s soo good to
Me!
You should have put some of the custard on the Christmas pudding 🇬🇧❤️
We did after we turned off the camera. It was good with the custard too 😊
You seemed to like most things, and you liked Christmas pudding so I think you should stay with us forever. Great video.
Yes, even the things we didn't quite like mostly grew on us after we filmed the video two weeks ago. I (Anja) have been eating Marmite every morning 😂. I think I figured out how to eat it so it tastes good, haha. We'll be back in the UK over Easter. Any Easter snacks that are mandatory to eat? Thanks for watching! 🙂
Hot cross buns for Easter!
@@SideQ-rr6my toasted hot cross buns … loads of real butter ..
As a Britt I can say every Christmas I woke up to a Terry's chocolate orange and a Clementine in my Christmas stocking because honestly is Christmas really complete with a couple orange's? 😂
Hahaha. Well, my mom certainly agreed with that! Always clementines in my stocking as well, and we used to get the cheap little dollar peel-off lotto tickets as well. Chocolate, fruit and childhood gambling. What else do you need, really. 😂
When i was a child my stocking/pillow case we always got an orange, mr matey bubble bath, flannel and chocolate coins without fail! We never had a chocolate orange in our stockings but its my favorite chocolate and every year now my sisters buy me 1 each 🤣🙌🏻
Love Fry’s Turkish Delight. My go to.
Hahaha. I guess Anja was wrong! I think you're actually the third person so far to save they love it as well.
@@wherearewe-yt I’m one of those weird people that stores chocolate in the fridge. I always have Turkish Delight in the fridge. A lot of people don’t like the perfume taste but I love it. I also enjoy eating Musk sticks. You mentioned Jaffa Cakes, in Australia we have Jaffas. Jaffas are little chocolate balls encased in a thin orange shell.
@@djgrant8761 We actually don't even mind rose flavor. We've had some rose flavored desserts in the Middle East, Turkey, and in North Africa - and have actually quite enjoyed them. But they were all with pastries, and the rose flavour often came from rose water or syrup. I think the combination with the chocolate throws it off for us!
Those Jaffa balls look interesting. If we make it back to Australia, we'll have to make a snack video and try em'!
Nice vid guys.I enjoyed that.
Thanks so much for watching!
Little tip for you, in winter run the jar of Marmite under hot water for a minute. It makes spreading it so much easier, you'll rip the toast up otherwise. Branston pickle is best in a sandwich with a mature or vintage cheddar.
One tip we've been using from the comments section, has been mixing the marmite directly with the butter in a little ramekin before hand. Spreads evenly, and easily! We went from not liking it at first, to eating it at breakfast every day. Ha!
Marmite: You can use as a stock in stews and soups
Branson on Salads and with cheese, meats!
the Tunnock's Coconut Logs are stonking (amazing).
Marmite is stuffed full of B vitamins, I love dipping buttery toast top with marmite in a sweet cup of tea, I always have done since I was a kid and I still do, you can do that with coffee too, yummy!
Maybe we'll have to try that! But maybe not with the Toast and Jam tea we bought. That would probably be pretty gross. 😂
I'm a brit, I never heard of Toast and Jam tea I wouldn't use it, try the toast with PG Tips, Yorkshire Tea or similar english black tea, one or two teaspoons of sugar and add milk, fold your marmite toast in half, dunk and eat it whole
What a lovely couple you are
Thanks! 😊
@@wherearewe-yt it’s very true🫖
WE love Tunnocks Teacakes even down south, so delicious
Google Betty’s it is a pasterie in Yorkshire. Their butter shortbread biscuits are to die for. I order 4 packs at a time.mmmmm delicious🫖☕️☕️☕️
Looked it up online, and it looks good! We'll have to visit if we find ourselves in Yorkshire.
There's a chance that the Cadbury you got in Canada was made by Hershey, which is not as good as the original.
We're heading back to Canada soon, but we'll be in the UK before we do. Maybe I'll have to grab some of the Cadbury bars from the UK that we have in Canada, and do a side by side comparison! Haha.
Frys Turkish delight is one of my favourites - i love em
There seem to be a lot of Frys lovers in the comment section. Anja was wrong, for sure!
Top tip with the crisps … give them a good shake … gets all the coating that’s come off back to the crisp ..
I'd love to send you a box of UK stuff if you ever want to do a candy/food swap! I adore Tunnocks products, a very old fashioned British brand :) you guys are so great to watch! Was very happy to see people trying Marmite and actually buttering the toast first, though I love my Marmite super salty so I'd have it even thicker than you had it. There's so many Marmite products here, like Marmite cheese, hummus, peanut butter, crackers, ricecakes, nuts! AND I was so so excited to see the mince pies/christmas pudding, as I am a huge fan of both (unlike all my family and friends)! I have my pies plain and cold, but always heat the pudding. If you get a fancy pudding, it should have nuts in it!
We have a second UK snack video that we released a week ago, so you should also check that out!
And funny you mentioned it..we ALSO have a Marmite snack video coming out a few weeks from now, where we tried a bunch of different types of Marmite spreads and snacks. We grew to love it after this first snack video, and now we can't get enough of it. Hahaha.
Thanks so much for watching! We have SEVEN more UK videos coming, so subscribe and stay tuned.
EVERYONE loves Teacakes.
The best flavoured cheese&onion crisps ever were KP from the eighties in the yellow bag,the flavour was incredible and even now I get flashbacks about them,so when they invent time travel you know where my first stop is going to be😊
I think we all have snacks like that from our youth that no longer exist.
That company still seems to exist. Do they not make them anymore??
I have a cuppa tea with the Marmite
I quite like Fry's Turkish Delight but it's not a patch on the real stuff. Pistachio or honey flavour REAL Turkish delight is the food of the gods.
Agreed! We were living in Istanbul for about three months, and we became absolutely obsessed. The rose flavor is still good, but the varieties with nuts were incredible!
Twiglets like Marmite are made with Yeast Extract, so have a very very savory strong umami taste - That is what divides opinions on these products. Some people love the taste, whilst others hate it.. there doesnt seem to be an inbetween. The best way to enjoy twiglets is with a beer or ale, the two flavor compliment each other. Both products however have health benefits as they are full of fibre, protien and B Vitamins
We actually grew to love both Twiglets, and Marmite in a short amount of time. 😂
Marmite is great when it's not the "prominent" flavor. With the proper amount of Marmite VS Butter, it really shines! I particularly love grilled cheese with a marmite/butter mixture spread on both sides of the bread before toasting. Anja uses it on her toast every day now as well.
Twiglets just have such a satisfying crunch, that we kept on craving them after a while. Would 100% buy both again. If we lived in the UK, we'd always have Marmite in the house now. Hahaha..
When you're back in the UK you've got to try Scottish tablet and maybe Edinburgh rock, it's not anything like the traditional seaside rock. If you've never heard of rock I suggest looking it up. It's as British as you can get. Also try Branston original as it's more chunky.
Enjoyed your video guys.👍
Thanks for watching! 😊 I (Anja) think I've had the Scottish tablet before but that was years ago. Not sure about the rock. We can't wait to go back and revisit Scotland, though.
Try the Twiglets with a dip, like Hummus, will take the edge off the bitterness.
We actually ended up liking them. We also dipped them in blue cheese dip which is yummy.
Teacakes aren't filled with marshmallow, they're filled with Italian Meringue 😊
Is the difference that they don't have gelatin? Tunnock's calls it "soft marshmallow", though 😊
@@wherearewe-yt on the package, yes. They clarify it on their website 😊
Putting Turkish delight in chocolate is one of the worst culinary acts of violence that Britain ever committed.
It’s genuinely nice, Turkish delight in chocolate is like putting a block of nice cheese in a pie crust.
Haha, chocolate with a gummy consistency really doesn't work well 😂 Thanks for watching!
Your reactions are great. When it comes to Marmite - you either love it or hate it. Lol xx
We actually love it now, believe it or not! We eat it at breakfast everyday. 😂😂
You missed out on my 2 favourites snacks - MONSTER MUNCH and Cheese Puffs or Wotsits Really Cheesy Multipack
If there's a part two, there will DEFINITELY be Monster Munch. Maybe we'll add on he Wotsits as well.
If you have digestive biscuits. Dark chocolate are the best , even better when you dunk in tea . The chocolate melts 😍
It didn't make it into the video, but I mentioned how my parents are both major tea drinks. My dad always has biscuits with his tea, and we always had digestives in the house. I'll have to grab some when we get back to Canada, and get to dunking!
That was a good honest review ,nice to see somone with adult palettes ,top tip pop the jar for 5 seconds in the microwave and it melts marmite into a runny easy to spread thin film , doesnt hurt the marmite.
We try all foods with an open mind! From marmite, to sheep's head or rooster testicle. We try it all. 😂
We really enjoyed everything. I (Brandon) am going to give marmite another go. We've received so many interesting tips on how to use it, that I've gotta try some of them. Anja is already a convert. Haha.
Just start in tiny amounts , it's also a flavour enhancer so makes anything you drink while eating taste better , proper Yorkshire tea and marmite toast is a thing of beauty
you need to dip the biscuits in the tea! In the morning, I make 2 pieces of toast, one with a sweet jam and one with marmite. I eat the marmite first, followed by the jam toast, you need a sugary tea/coffee.
We actually eat Marmite for breakfast almost every day now! Hahaha.
I love to make a grilled Marmite breakfast sandwich. 😋
yeah so the thing with Marmite is make sure you put looooooooooads of butter on your toast first then apply the marmite so that it blends
We actually have a Marmite video coming out in the future. We tried a few different Marmite spreads and a bunch of Marmite snacks. We've fallen in love with it since this video! 😅
Tunnocks tea cakes aren't really with tea yeah... And the coconut tunnocks I've never even heard of 😂😅 the best tunnocks and the most common are the tunnocks wafers and tunnocks tea cakes. Hob nobs are my favourite dunking biscuit. The sticky toffee flavour though to me is far too sweet. The original just... Chocolate hobnobs is where it is at! And please... The not dunking them is a newbie/rookie mistake 😂 I can see you asking others in the comment section 'doesn't that make them fall apart'... Yes but if held in for short enough time No. Lol 😂 chocolate hobnobs/ sticky toffee when held in for a short time melts the chocolate a little and warms up the toffee in sticky toffees case... And voila a transformation occurs. Levelling up the biscuit to a whole new level
You can get pom bears in the uk just for info 😊
Twiglets are awful... Haha sorry... But yeah twiglets are marmite in flavour which marmite is a divisive subject in the UK etc their branding says it in fact. 'You either love it or hate it!' and I... I am a hater 😂 marmite is awful too to me hahaha
I was like wow when you had the branston pickle raw as is 😂 like nooooo branston pickle is to go with cheese and the cheese is not optional... Either branston with cheese sandwich or a toastie! Or on cheese and crackers or it's served sometimes on a ploughman's lunch which is a salad with ham and cheese here in the uk the branston is usually served to the side or in a little pot or ramekin etc 😊 it's especially good on salty things... The sweet with the sour and salty is amazing... Like red onion marmalade with blue cheese or brie! The tangy with creamy and salty is a phenomenal combo ❤
Ribena is super sweet and you can buy it in cordial form to mix with water! But you can buy still or fizzy like you had for when on the go in the day etc 😊
Terry's chocolate orange in you're stocking each?!!? Wow your parents were generous... Usually there's one at Christmas and it's shared between the whole family 😂
Turkish delight is another divisive thing... Like marmite and twiglets 😂 one thing is Turkish delight isn't British technically... Key is in the name... Turkey 😂😊
And twirl is banging the mint choc version not so much 😂 but then I dislike mint chocolate stuff I won't lie 😂 and double decker is amazing... Hands down one of the best chocolate bars in existence 😂 and fruit pastilles are fantastically good!
And lord knows Christmas pudding is awful too 😂 you picked out all the things I don't like 😂 and I'm not picky at all rest assured 😂 and mince pies is usually served with proper double cream or we will do a Bailey's cream or brandy cream or whisky cream with... Christmas is a time of excess so we usually go that much further... Squirty cream is okay but yeah... Mince pies with brandy butter is a favourite of mine 😂😂 and you can use any brandy or rum or whisky etc for the burning alcohol on the chocolate pudding and nah it's not a crime to put cream on etc... why didn't you eat them with the custard?!!? 😂😅😮
Hahaha. So BeardMeatsFood wasn't full of shit!
Off camera, I said to Anja that I think the original Tunnock's without coconut would be better. The best part about them is that nice chew, and the coconut just kind of ruins the experience a bit by falling all over the place and making a mess. Still good though!
So do most people add milk to their tea then!? Hahaha. I feel like dipping biscuits into tea without milk, would almost be like dipping them into hot water, would it not? We will definitely have to try some different biscuits next time. There are so many we missed out on. But we loved those sticky toffee pudding Hobnobs!
We actually ended up loving the Twiglets. They have such a satisfying crunch, we both kept craving them out of no where, and finished the whole bag. Anja loves marmite now as well, even though she hated it at first. I'm still not a fan, so that's all for her. 😂
We actually ate the Branston with cheese right after we ate it straight up on toast. It just didn't make it into the video, because the video ended up being too long. Didn't know it was so controversial to eat it on it's own! Hahahaha. We've been told twice that no one does that. I'm sure you won't be the last. 😂
My mom always LOADED our stockings. Tangerines, and a Terry's Chocolate orange were always a given on Christmas morning.
I agree with the Double Decker. I absolutely love them! We're visiting the UK again soon, and I am going to bring some home to my family when we visit Canada.
The mince pies were actually really good, but served with Bailey's cream sounded freakin' amazing. The pudding was okay. Anja liked it better than me. Hahaha.
Thank for watching!
@@wherearewe-yt yeah... So we put milk in our tea. Black tea like black coffee is for sociopathic people 🤣 and very fair... Yeah more twiglets and marmite for you then as I'm not consuming/partaking 🤣 when you get taste tests of 'british' food I swear the videos always put in atleast one of the 'controversial' food items we have... There is always at least twiglets or marmite or jellied eels or mushy peas in there. Because they know they will get either outrage comments or people arguing in the comments about how British food is bad etc 🙄
And yeah tunnocks wafers are so good 🤤 and yeah BeardMeatsFood knows his stuff for sure 😊
Christmas is usually excessive in everything to be fair... When I say about the Terry's shared between a family... Usually because there's a ton of sweets and chocolate and snacks too... So 1 shared is usually enough 😊
Oh and yeah... Traditionally at Christmas we also have brandy snaps (they don't contain brandy anymore though) which are like a caramel cylinder... And we will pipe brandy cream or Bailey's cream etc into the middle of 😊
You don't put milk into fruit teas,only breakfast teas whick are brown in colour till you add the milk and sugar if you want to add them.
The Toast & Jam tea is not a fruit tea. It's a blend of black teas with flavoring. So the milk actually works really well. We've been drinking it like that now. Thanks for watching!
I love Marmite XO has been matured four times longer than standard Marmite to create a fuller-bodied, stronger flavoured
Maybe we need to try that for the next snack video. We'd never even heard of it! Had no idea there were multiple types of marmite. Apparently there are special editions versions some times as well?
@@wherearewe-yt There's a Marmite flavoured peanut butter, under no circumstances try it....its horrific. 😂
@@andrewlaw Someone mentioned it already in the comments. Now we want to try it even more! Hahaha.
Fry's Turkish Delight is amazing, but most definitely its own thing - its nothing like traditional Turkish delight (which we also get here) so its definitely a bit of a misnomer
Of all the things we tried this day, it's the one thing we still don't like..haha.
We both grew to love marmite after figuring out what type of ratio works for us. We're just not a fan of that jelly, chocolate combo. According the the comments section, it certainly does have a fanbase!
The Branston is a sandwich pickle spread but can be eaten as a side with some meals. I love it on all sandwiches and I eat it a lot if I have a side salad with a meal. Keep up the great videos. :)
We're obsessed. It's actually almost completely gone already. 😅
Luckily we will be back in the UK (briefly) soon, so we will 100% be buying some more! It's so dang good!
Thanks for watching. 😀
It is NOT a spread it is a relish.
I use it on a salad😋
Did you cook the Christmas pudding first?
We put it in the microwave for a few minutes as instructed on the box, but honestly, it was probably not long enough 😅. Is it supposed to be piping hot or just warm?
@@wherearewe-yt yes, it should come out piping hot with steam rising from it otherwise it will be dry because the suet (a type of buttery fat) will not have melted. Traditionally it was steamed or left in boiling water to cook, but microwaving is fine too. Christmas pudding is a love or loath type of dessert, I love it especially with custard. PS first time watching your videos, great reaction video.
@@DavidDoyleOutdoors then it definitely wasn't quite long enough 😅, it was a bit warm but not super hot. It still tasted yummy. I bet it's even better if done correctly, haha. Next time!
We have pom bears in England.. they come in 2 different flavours
I realised that afterwards 😅. I (Anja) always thought they were German because I grew up eating them. But they seem to exist in other countries, like Hungary, too. They're definitely a nostalgic flavour to me. Thanks for watching!
I like my chocolate in the fridge as well.
It's so much better that way 😊
I love Turkish delight😊
Which type? The Fry's, or the proper stuff?! Haha.
Anja was reading a reddit page all about the Fry's Turkish Delight debate. It's a hate or love it thing for sure. 😅
It’s divides opinions just like marmite but I love it. Turkish delight from turkey comes in all sorts of fancy flavours and products like nuts or coconut are added to create different textures with different appearances but they also do the plain type which is similar in texture to the fry’s Turkish delight.
Try Green and Blacks chocolate.
Terrys chocolate orange was definitely a stocking filler in my house hold growing up.(UK)
That's super interesting! I guess it must have been something brought over from those immigrating to Canada from the UK.
I never really questioned many of these things growing up, but each time we're back in the UK, I always discover a new food, snack, or tradition that I grew up with is actually British.
To be fair, both sides of my family ultimately came from the UK if you go back enough- so I suppose it makes sense. 😂
@@wherearewe-yt well that does make sense for sure. Just a heads up they do a Terry’s mint flavour one now also. Keep up the great videos
@@joshtiley7008 They actually did have the Terry's Mint version in that British shop we had visit in person, but we already had the mint Twirl, so we wanted to get the OG flavor, especially since I hadn't had it in ages.
Thanks for watching! 🍻
@@wherearewe-yt ah yes that’s true. Well the OG is definitely better anyway so good choice.
Tyrell’s cheese and onion crisps are the best. Even better than Golden Wonder.
Cheese and pickled onion? That sounds amazing!
A dollop of marmite in gravy is a must ..
the english are not notorious for strong flavored chip/crisps. but we do have a few...Tyrells do have some very strong and creative flavours.
We've tried a few flavors of Tyrrells, and we really love them. Their veg crisps are delicious as well.
They have a few interesting looking flavors that we've never had, that we'd love to try!
Fun watch, thank you.
"Maybe this is wrong" - no, do what you enjoy.
Thanks! We have a snacks part two out now. Have you seen it - or was that the video that led you here?
as for Branston Pickle, use it in a sandwich with say Cheese, Tomato and Lettuce
We tried it with cheese while filming this video, but it didn't make it in the actual video. It's even better with cheese!
Why are none of us Brits talking about the TEA? ‘Toast and Jam’?! Pass. Tea without milk?! HARD PASS 😂 I’m an English boi and have never seen toast and jam tea, nor would I drink it! Still not seen a video of a foreigner doing English breakfast tea properly 😭
Hahaha. You're not the first!
Don't knock it til' ya try it! We tried it with milk and a tiny bit of sugar, and it's quite good that way. 😜
We've had tea in a few of our other videos, and have tried a lot of the more common teas like Early Grey, and English Breakfast before. We wanted to try something that sounded a bit more.."unusual". 😂
Marmite on toast with cheesy beans on top.
That sounds delicious. I (Brandon) actually love beans on toast...haha.
Hopefully next time you guys can get Monster Munch, fingers crossed 🤞.
We'll actually be back in the UK for a few weeks in March so we'll definitely have some then 🙂
@@wherearewe-yt fantastic
I love Fry’s turkish delight
You must be the only person 😜. haha, it's a bit too perfumey for us 😅. Have you had the real stuff?
I love it aswell. I guess lots do otherwise they wouldn't make them.
@@jpw6893 Hahaha. Anja and I had this conversation afterwards! I've never seen anyone buy a Big Turk bar in Canada either, but they've existed forever, so people must buy them. Guess we found out the truth with this video!
@@wherearewe-yt they expanded the flavours a while ago, did some Limited editions, lemon and a cherry flavour. Fry's is owned by Cadbury if you didn't know.
@@jpw6893 We didn't know that, actually! I'd be curious to try another flavour. Don't know that it would be a different outcome, but still curious! 😅
Make sure the toast is hot, loads of butter.... Loads..... Then a pea size amount of marmite, dapped/spread as best you can.
Anja is already a marmite convert! We actually realized we were nearly out of butter when we went to film the marmite scene, so we didn't put nearly enough on. I'm going to give it another go, now that we've got some. I haven't tried it since! Haha.
@@wherearewe-ytlooked like far too much marmite so try a lot less with loads of butter!
@@jamesmccarthy2655 Will do! I'll have a re-do for breakfast tomorrow. Haha.
@@wherearewe-yt for a beginner, a good way to get an even spread is to mix a small amount of Marmite with some softened butter in a dish and then spread that mixture on the hot toast. Personally I recommend topping that with freshly sliced tomato, which adds some moisture and a touch of sweetness to balance out the salty umami of the Marmite.
I feel the need to report back with my marmite findings. I mixed marmite and butter together, microwaved it for a few seconds so it could spread, then make a marmite grilled cheese (as someone else suggested). It was amazing. Hahaha.
Den Kokosnussriegel möchte ich so gerne probieren❤
Gibt's wohl jetzt auch mit dunkler Schokolade aber ohne Kokos. Vielleicht kann ich ja einen nächstes Mal mitbringen, falls wir gerade aus Großbritannien kommen 🙂
Turkish Delight yum 😋
There seem to be a lot of Turkish Delight lovers! Hahaha.
Try Galaxy Ripple
Fruit gums same brand as the pastilles are the boys gummy wise 👍🏻. But be warned they remove loose fillings 🤣
Haha. We'll have to try em' next time! We've also had someone suggest we try "York Fruits". They look pretty similar. Is there a difference??
Also chewits any and all flavours 👌🏻
Oh yea big difference they're soft as 💩 comparable to proper rowntrees fruit gums, accept no imitation. Used to be made with gelatine but they may be halalificated by now not too sure 🤷🏻♂️
@@carllawrenczuk9173 Gotcha! We prefer a chewy gummy sweet for sure. We'll add it to the list!
Turkish delight is my favourite 😋
We thought it was an unpopular chocolate bar but according to the comments, I guess we are the only ones not liking it 😂
@wherearewe-yt guess it's because we have grew up with it! Saying that my wife daughter and son can't stand them 🤣
Quavers are a weird one,you never think when you want some crisps that quavers will be your first choice but when someone gives them to you they are addictive to eat and one bag is never enough.
We actually ended up liking them quite a bit in the end! But you're totally right. Don't know that we'd necessarily choose them over other crisps.
Both spreads are great with cheese. Try that marmite but as Grilled cheese.
Branston is a sandwich and not toast based topping. One guy ftom a band from Boston called King's of nothing loved the stuff at a friend's house in London after a gig. British drinking tea and coffee after midnight with Boston-Irish punks....
Kings of Nuthin' are one of my (Brandon) favorite bands! That's super random. Amazing.
Does Canada get the real Cadbury’s, or the Hersheys made American crud? Although there’s less difference these days since it was bought out and started cutting corners…
Not sure, but Cadbury in Canada is apparently made by "Mondelez Canada". It's definitely tasty and they have a few Canada only Cadbury bars that don't exist in the US:
My brother always considered me weird because I put Branston (only chunky the smooth stuff is awful) on fish and chips. When he was dating his now wife they had fish and chips with her parents. She actually put Branston on her fish and chips. Her parents apologised thinking my brother would find it strange but he told them his brother was the other British person who had this strange habit😁
That sounds delicious. We would totally do that. Hahaha.
Put a teaspoon of Marmite in Meaty gravy and pour over roast meat and vegetables.
That sounds good!
lays and walkers where bought out by pepsi co. basically lays started out as a homewear companmy before wlakers existed. the nwalkers came into existance making crisps (chips) then later on lays stopped doing homewear and started making crisps. then pepsi gobbled them up, so lays is the older company but walkers have made crisps longer than lays
Interesting! I'd love to try some Walkers flavors that are uniquely British the next time we're in the UK. I (Brandon) have never had an, besides the Quavers we tried in this video. Have any suggestions??
@@wherearewe-yt smokey bacon
Walkers do a marmite flavour crisp
@@paulfeveyear354 Really?? We absolutely need to try that. 😂
Something else you might like to know is that you can get marmite crunchy peanut butter in the uk
fun fact the germans and english get on well (despite the fact we complai nabout each other a lot and have a lot of banter ) but our dislike of each other comes from us beign so similar to each other and wont admit it lol because the "english" where a germanic tribe originally so have a lot of similarities
True, I made a lot of English friends, and of course, Scottish ones since I went to university there. I always felt completely at home there. However, one year the Football World Cup was going on when I was working with lots of people from England and they had a lot of things to say to me about it 😂. I love how British people always joke around with sarcasm and "take the piss". Germans are similar in that way as we are quite direct. I've lived in North America for a few years as well and there people tend to not always have the same humour, haha.
well the "engel tribe where from southern denmark/western germany and fled before the romans, and fled to britain. thats why our language is based on germanic :) @@wherearewe-yt
also notice by our love of beer between the 2 nations lol
@@cyberash3000 yes, although people love to drink in Germany, I was actually surprised how much people from the UK can drink when I first moved there as a student 😂. It was like a sport, haha
Walkers was its own company until being bought out by Pepsi Co (Lays) in fact they were better before, my gran used to sell them because of the freshly cooked taste which they no longer have, just the generic crisp now
That's interesting! Would have loved to try them back then. So far, I (Brandon) have still only tried Quavers. I'd still like to try more.
Twiglets are better dipped in cream cheese and other dips.
It's funny you mention that - we actually dipped them in a blue cheese cream cheese spread later on, and it was great. We actually ended up really loving the Twiglets, even on their own! They have such a satisfying crunch, we kept going back to them. We'd buy them again for sure!
my favorite chocolate is most cadburys chocolate but the best one is marvelous creations by cadbury which is normal chocolate with jelly beans and popping candy
And your answer to the terry's chocolate oranges yes we normally get at least one for christmas
i have never known someone to heat up a mince pie and i know loads of prople that like them i personally dont
Interesting! We tried to pies both way, and we preferred to heat them up, for sure.
I (Brandon) love chocolate with popping candy.
Good vid. NB, chocolate orange is no longer British. Production was moved to Poland then France.
Thanks! We recently put up a follow up snack video to this one.
It happens! They still taste delicious. Just how I remembered.
That was a fun alternative to the tour videos! But why couldn’t you fly with the snacks; why did you have to order them?
When we travel to the UK, we typically only take a small backpack because that's all the budget airlines allow. We are never usually there for more than a few days at a time!
We we be back in the UK soon though, so if this video takes off, we may do a (smaller) part 2! We will also potentially have a UK fast food video, and will have some videos from Northern Ireland coming up. That'll probably be early April when we are able to release that stuff.
Try Piccalilli with Cheese in a sandwich😊
I saw there's a Branston Piccalilli version. We'll definitely buy that next time. Our current Branston jar is already empty 😂
@@wherearewe-ytbeware though cos as delicious as it is, piccalilli has a bit of a kick 😉 but saying that, it might not be that “Kicky” for you! 😄 but it’s really nice - try it with breaded ham in a crusty bread roll…
Lush!
Bring me some snacks when you come home 😂
Did you guys bring any snacks home? We'll try and bring some stuff from Belfast!
@@wherearewe-yt we did bring a few but mostly for the plane!
I think I’m the only person in the world who likes those Turkish delight bars, you definitely spread tried the marmite very thick, try it under melted cheddar on toast x
haha, there seem to be a lot people in the comments saying they like the Turkish delight bar, too 😆. The Marmite has actually grown on us but we've used it a lot more sparingly. Melted cheddar on top sounds yummy 🙂
Marmite and cheese melted in a sandwhich then you'll understand....
Since this video we've become obsessed with Marmite. A grilled cheese Marmite is one of our go-to's now!
If you haven't already subscribed, you should, because we have a video coming out where we tried all things Marmite (snacks and different Marmite spreads).
100% got a terrys chocolate orange in my christmas stockings
Also Milka is NOT better than Cadbury 😢😢
haha, Milka is the best 😂. I really like Galaxy chocolate in the UK, though 😊
I love turkish delight its delicious, popular in the uk, Cadbury is the best chocolate, then nestle then frys in that order for me.
I (Anja) actually love Galaxy the most. I'd always get minstrels and the caramel bar back in the days. I wanted Brandon to try some but the shop was out of stock for Galaxy. Cadbury and Nestle are pretty good. Although, we tried the Yorkie one by Nestle when we visited the UK last time and I couldn't believe it was a plain block of chocolate and nothing else 😂
@@wherearewe-yt Galaxy Is ok, it's probably would be my fourth choice I guess. Yeah lol 😂Yorkie just chocolate, still good though. 😊
I imagine the comment section is full of pickle comments. Nobody has a pickle on its own. cheese and pickle is a classic.
Hahaha. You're right - it is! It was still delicious! As I said to others, we did try it with cheese right after this, but we cut it out to make the video shorter. Didn't know "raw dogging Branston on toast" was so controversial. 😂
Why the f would anyone want toast and jam flavoured tea?
Haha..we've had normal English tea before so we wanted to try something new. Toast and Jam flavor seemed quite intriguing, I couldn't pass it up 😅. The smell is truly divine but the taste was underwhelming. Maybe it's because we had it plain. We'll have another cup later today and we'll add milk and sugar. Maybe it'll be a bit better that way. Thanks for watching! 🙂
I LOVE marmite!! I'm lucky enough to have grown up eating Cadburys, Galaxy and Milka so Hersheys acting makes me want to vomit, I think the same goes for everyone I know haha 😂A warm mince pie with brandy butter/custard 👌👌 (also in the UK, we just call chocolate 'chocolate', not candy or sweets 😊
Well, if you love MarmIte, then you'll be interested to hear that we actually have a UK snack video coming up where we try ALL things Marmite. 😉
We are currently filming like.. 8 videos in the UK, so it won't be out for quite a while, but it's comin'! Haha.
@@wherearewe-yt peanut butter & marmite all-in-one spread NEEDS to be featured 😊
Mince pies should be warm with brandy butter (or rum butter)
The coconut tunnocks are lovely but really hard to get even over here, i had to go to other side of city to get some.
Quavers cheese are really lovely but avoid the other flavours, the Prawn and BBQ ones are actually gross.
Brandy butter sounds delicious! If we ever find ourselves in the UK for the holiday season, we'll have to try it.
The Tunnocks were great. Anja told me after the fact that we have tried the original version together when we were in Edinburgh, years ago. I have no memory of it - so I'll have to give the original another go.😂 I think I'd prefer without the coconut!
Hahaha. I wanted to try the Prawn cocktail version! I've never tried that as a crisp flavour. We were even thinking of trying regular Walkers Prawn Cocktail if we make a part two.
@@wherearewe-yt walkers normal prawn cocktail are lovely, just not the quavers version. And pringles prawn cocktail are absolutely horrible.
@@martynnotman3467 That's nice to hear because I was actually really looking forward to them! Are there any other flavours you'd recommend? We have one vote for Smoky Bacon so far! Haha.
@@wherearewe-yt smoky bacon taste lovely but smell like dog treats. The Chicken are nice, the best were Worcestershire Sauce but i think they have been discontinued.
@@martynnotman3467 Well, Anja will love them then..as she said, she loves the smell of dog treats. 😂
Hobnob girl here *Raises hand*
ive had this turkish delight and been to turkey and had proper turkish delight. i hate both lol
haha, I guess that just means there's more for us of the proper stuff, then 😝😊
Try M&S Percy Pigs
Someone else mentioned these, too. They look good! Thanks for watching! 😊
No space raiders?
We've heard about them, but have never tried them! We will have to get them next time we're in the UK.
You need a proper cup tea with milk! Then you dip the biscuits in not fruit tea 😤❤❤❤
That tea is actually a black tea blend, not really a fruit tea. We drank it with a bit of milk and sugar, and it was much better! We're actually headed to the UK a few weeks from now, and plan on doing a part two. What type of tea should we try next??
Yorkshire tea with milk and sugar, leave the tea bag in for bout 3-4 minutes then take it out and add the milk and sugar. Try dipping in plain hobnobs and plain digestive. But don't dip it for too long cause' the biscuit will fall in 😂 also, get a penguin biscuit, bite the top corner and the bottom opposite corner, dip it the tea an suck the tea through like a straw, as soon as you taste the tea come through the penguin, immediately take it out before it falls in and eat quickly😊 it's amazing 👍❤❤❤
What's wrong with being an old British person ?
haha, nothing of course 😅, Brandon's great grandparents even came from the UK 😊. However, one thing that might be wrong with them is that some of them apparently like jellied eels, as we learned in London 😝
No Brit would go for the toast and jam tea
Haha, but it's a British brand and it's being sold at Tesco in the UK and Amazon UK 😆. Someone must buy it, just like someone must buy Turkish Delights 😅. We actually put milk and sugar in the tea today and it was quite delicious after all.
it is a crime not to put cream on christmas pudding.
Good to know!
You should eat Branstons in a sandwich with cheese, not on toast ewww
It was delicious! We did eat it with cheese right after that though. 😜
@@wherearewe-yt 👍🏻👍🏻
Toast and Jam tea.
That is wrong in so many ways. 🤢🤮
Hahaha. We're actually drinking it right now. With a little bit of sugar and milk, it's freakin' delicious! Much better than with just hot water.
We've had a lot of Early Grey and English Breakfast varieties, so we wanted to try something a bit more unique for the video. Any other teas you suggest we try?
If you spent five years in Scotland and never had a teacake it was five years wasted😊
Haha, I was a poor student and only survived solely on Boots meal deals 😂. I never tried Haggis either when I lived there because I wasn't adventurous enough back then. I only realized a few years later what I had missed 😋.
Its shoking the amount of houses burnt down this xmas there were only 3 deaths.
Thats not tea bugger buiscuits with that rubbish. Lived in Scotland you must know what tea realy is.and thats not tea.
Hob Nobs are the best great for dunking, learn to dunk.
haha, it might be shocking, but I actually didn't really drink tea while living in Scotland, although I was offered tea many times a day by my flat mate 😂. The teabags weren't that bad, but we'll make sure to get proper tea next time we are in the UK and we'll dunk the Hob Nobs 😅. However, don't the biscuits get a bit soggy, since tea is kind of like water? Or is milk mandatory? Thanks for watching!
