This guy has the most mild Scottish accent I've ever heard :)
So does the Nigerian. Doesn’t sound Scottish or Nigerian at all.
@@sarahprince2412e does sound Scottish. Listen to the R. I think he was trying to soften his accent. But the Nigerian guy...he doesn't look Nigerian...
He sounds like Karen Gillan. Very mild, but you hear it in the Rs and the Os.
Cause he lives in the south my moms also from Scotland I wish I was with her to do a video. She won’t even if I was with her.
Talia is infinitely encouraging and “southern sweet” -> “you’re probably good at other things” 😂😂 love her!!!!
That was the first time I saw "bless your heart" said with a look. 😅😅
Gotta admit, big crush on Talia.
I ain't believing that you didn't have cracklins. The ultimate Mississippi snack
Dude, they didn't even have salad for the salad dressing.
I bought and ate those in Connecticut. Used to live there
YUM ! LOVE HERE IN TENNESSEE !
They are saving them for the Louisiana show,,,,with hogs head cheese,, crawfish,,,and boudan
Or skins. Like wth
You need to pour that Cajun Candy over a block of cream cheese and serve with crackers.
I love doing that with spicy pepper/onion relish. In a pinch, I'll do that with plain hot pepper jelly. But the relish is better.
@@splehcar hold the phone. Hot pepper jelly?! What is this? I'm from New York. I've never heard of this before but it sounds like I was meant to meet it.
@@AK-jt7kh the pepper/onion relish I recommend is Dickinson's. It's discontinued as far as I can tell. I bought a bunch of jars a while back when I heard/read rumors about the company being sold off to Smuckers. On my last 3 jars... 😕
Not having any good luck in finding a decent replacement.
I’ve heard it called cowboy candy.
@@AK-jt7kh huh... idk what happened to my reply re: hot pepper jelly. I like Stonecreek Kitchen's version. Sweet but a nice tingly spice all over inside my mouth and not in the back of my throat which I don't like. There are DIY recipes for it. Just keyword search on hot pepper jelly. Some just use cayenne powder, some use actual peppers like jalapeños, fresnos, habaneros... depends on how hot you like your jelly.
As a Mississippi Native Choctaw Indian I didn't see not one snack that represents Mississippi....Like Cracklings, Liver cheese and crackers... or homemade cake and sweet tea
They're hardly real Southerners.
Scottish man is right. The only proper excuse for leaving a tamale half-eaten is dying mid-tamale.
And it is "peh-KAHN". A "PEE-kan" is the old coffee can your dad kept in the bed of the pickup for the family's long drive up to Meemaw's house in the country so he didn't have to stop.
Some parts of the South do pronounce it "pee-can" - I'm in the Midwest and have always said it "peh-kahn" - I worked at a restaurant and was helping a family visiting from the South, and one of the women interrupted me to proclaim: "Young lady - it is pronounced *pee-can* - you are saying it wrong!"
I loved when my Mississippi Gulf Coast relatives asked for a "pack of Nabs ". Never heard that anywhere else.
You don’t live in the South
Gbenga has nice posh accent. I haven't had divinity in decades. My mom used to make it but she gave up since she was the only one that liked it.
Talia, I noticed Chris almost broke into that great scottish accent a few times. Tell him to just let it out. My ancestors were scottish (yeah, they gave me my red hair), and next to our southern accent, scottish is my second favorite. :)
I was born in Biloxi, MS. I left MS at the age of 8 days old. Last year was the first time I was in Biloxi since I was 8 days old back in 1963. So, I will be back.
"Have you had divinity before?"
"No, not in this form" 😂
Gbenga: "I get to know what it feels to be a raccoon." 🤣🤣🤣💖
My grandmother made homemade divinity every year for Christmas and for my birthday 🎁 it was the best. Better than any store bought divinity
Making divinity is almost like nuclear chemistry...wrong temperature/humidity/ingredient and it all goes wrong (think white diarrhea)
Tamales 🫔 for anyone born and raised or has lived anywhere in the Southwest or West coast know tamales aren't simply snacks, thwy can be meals unto themselves as well as paired with any number of foods like beams, meat, elote ( boiled or grilled corn that is slathered with mayonnaise so that the parmesan, or Oaxaca cheese, chili powder can adhere to the corn on the cob and either a sqeeze of lemon or lime juice either fresh or from a bottle. That's some good eating
In nyc we have them for breakfast with coffee. (Or anything really) love the ladies coming around with their carts and yelling tamales, tamales 🫔 😊
@@ildikoprepperkitchen Born and raised Angeleno here, and just about every LA native from Lincoln Heights, Boyle Heights and City Terrance in East LA, to Bell Gardens, Lynnwood, Compton, South Gate, Elysian Park, South L.A has woken up to or has memories of being awaken by the sounds of either someone pushing a cart down the street or some driving down the street on a Saturday or Sunday morning 🌄 yelling "Tamales 🫔 Champurrado", Growing up, trust me.
Divinity really has to be home made and fresh to be great.
Yay it’s Christopher!! I have been waiting for him to return
Hello kalia.. how are you doing?
Drinking the pickle juice ranks right up there with drinking pot liquor 😄
Mississippi is just full of amazing food. I just left there a few days ago 😂
Hello Bridgett.. how are you doing?
Love anything pickled. Love Okra! I could eat the whole jar of that okra.
Always look forward to your videos.
No one will ever beat the old Stuckey's pecan logs. OMG they were good. I don't even know if they're still around.
They are! Their factory is in my hometown of Wrens, GA!
The poor panel only had 1/5 of a picnic plate! I hope next time they get the remainder of the meal, LOL!
Drinking pickle juice helps with cramps. Love ya Talia
Where's the cheese straws and Dukes candied pecans? Great video.
“You’re probably good at other things” *Jim Halpert Stare*
You missed cheese straws!
We’ve been drinking pickle juice shots at my local bar lately. We call it “ maintenance. “ 💚
🤣😂😅
@@sheilaharrison8547 Love it❣️
Divinity is not supposed to be soft it supposed to be a little hard melt in your mouth as you bite into it. It also has to be made on sunny cool dry day or it doesn't turn out right it will be soft and mushy.
Hello Amanda.. how are you doing?
Moved from Texas to Mississippi when I was eight. Daddy's company transferred him. Mama was Cajun. Jalapeno's and Louisiana Hot Sauce have always been pantry staples. One of my favorite snacks is a saucer full of pickled jalapeno's. Don't need crackers, but crackers with cheese and jalapeno's are tasty.
The best Tamales in Mississippi come from Doe’s in Greenville or Cicero’s in Stoneville. The Delta is a wealth of amazing food!
Chris, you are gaining a Southern accent!!! Have to tell you your accent has changed over time. 😀
I was just going to say the same thing!
I was typing my comment about that before I read the comments and glad someone can affirm!!
Yup. Was gonna say the same.
Is that seriously the same guy?! The accent is almost gone, I'm honestly a little disappointed.
@@lindaduncan7181 it’s being here on the gulf coast that’s got him acclimated 😜
When he goes home for a visit they are gonna give him sh*t! 😂😂😂
Did that man just eat trailmix with a fork?
Ok, ok, stop hounding me. I'll drive through Mississippi on my way to Arkansas next week, just because you told me.
Comeback salad dressing is basically Raising Cane's sauce. 😂😂😂😂😂
I think comeback sauce predates Raising Canes btw pickled okra is amazing
I love when Christopher is in videos.
Love you Talia! Adam you definitely got lucky with which guest you were paired with, Gbenga is really sweet! 💜
As a Southern, who's family has been here before America was America, my favorite person on Southern Thing is Chris the Scottish man. I watch just for him, he so funny.
Oh, so that's how you eat tamales! 1:43
Hello Amanda.. how are you doing?
Talia’s “You’re good at other things” starts that video off well!
I've lived in Mississippi since I was 4... don't know of any of these. Lol!
Ok glad for me to not be the only one. I live in crystal springs and never seen most of these except for the pickled ocra and the trash
Same! I’ve lived here my whole life, but I’ve never had any of these! 😮
I've lived here my whole life and honestly same.
Great video
I could listen to Gbenga talk all day, someone give that man a voiceover job or acting job
What are nacho peanuts?
Are they peanuts that are not your's? Nacho peanuts?
Alright, I'll walk my bad dad joke ass outta here...
Y'all have had so many great guests lately! Chris and Gbenga were a hoot. ^^
I love Talia so much, she is so cute. And she has that sweet little voice.
I love Scottishman
Is it a Scottish thing to eat snack mix with a fork?
I hope not.
Comeback sauce is really good with a few good shakes of hot sauce!
We call it Cowboy Candy in Texas not Cajun Candy.
Hello Patty.. how are you doing?
Go Grandma Diane! So my husband called his Grandma from Arkansas "Sugar" because she told her grandkids to give her some sugar. Everyone called her Sugar.
Hello Charlene.. how are you doing?
Been in Mississippi 3.5 years and haven't tried any of these. I do love pickled okra...
you can find some version of all that in most all the southern states, at your local fairs,festivals, fleamarkets and road side produce stands. or you can make it at home like i do.
Both guys were great
Pickled okra belongs in a Bloody Mary.
Hello Tracy.. how are you doing?
Ok but you have to try Yazoo City, Mississippi Cheese Straws!! The best Mississippi snack!
Laughed so hard during this episode!
I enjoy watching more of this! 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Comeback sauce on fried pickles, yum! And put the pickled okra on a Bloody Mary.
He is eating southern trash with a fork. That’s so British and cute.
I love pickle juice
Comeback on fresh, homemade rolls is AMAZING - if you ever visited The Elite in Jackson....then you know!
The divinity reminds me of Italian torrones, which I adore!
You are making me hungry!
We’re going to Ireland and Scotland in September. What MUST we try? Don’t say haggis 😂
The mix 🤣😂
Where I'm from, divinity is literally called white nougat 😅
I we going to ignore eating finger foods with a fork?
Pickeled is the one of only two ways that i'll consent to eat okra. 😁😆😆
The comeback dressing looks a bit like Yum Yum sauce.
I wonder....
My mom's divinity was like magic! It basically melted on your tongue!
Now I want to see Talia try haggis
May i get permission to give her some suger ,i lived 55 years in Louisiana , we ask first , and She adorably cute / pretty , by the way I'm 62 and half Cajun French
You need to try south Louisiana cracklins (fresh fried, NOT bagged pork skins) and fresh boudin balls. The best I ever had was at convenience stores in Krotz Springs and Opelousas.
You're prolly good at other things... 😆😂😂😂
Curiously missing from thus video is skins...of the Dixon variety (amongst other things).
Think I would Ike the okra because I love anything pickled.
Ahhh-krah!😂😅😂😅
born and raised in MS, never heard of half of these
And now I'm hungry.
No crawfish? Tisk, tisk.
Since divinity is mainly egg whites it could be that pecans are just too heavy to mix in and are better as a crushed topping
I only like okra pickled and I will eat it fried if it's my mom's.
"Tuh-mall-ees" lol. How does the Scotsman sound more Southern hick than the Southern hicks. 😂
why did onnly 2 try the Tomales?
I love Dianne
Tamales and pickled okra 👍🏻 But how do you not include Kim’s Fried Chicken Skins in uniquely Mississippi snacks? This frightens and confuses me but I am just a caveman….
I'm still waiting on the Arkansas episode
I have lived in Mississippi my whole life. The only thing in this video I have tried is the divinity. It is best fresh made, not from a package.
Oh my goodness! Christopher is losing his Scottish accent! Sounding very American there.
Hello Rebecca.. how are you doing?
i’m from mississippi and i’ve never had any of these
I could eat an entire jar of okra by myself
Looks like Louisiana food. Lived in Mississippi for a year and never ate nor saw anyone else eat any of those things.
Make a bean dip out of all of it
Has anyone ever tried fried pickle okra? If not, you should
Cajun candy..... that would be Talia if she was from Louisiana
4 out of 5 bagpipes!
Try jujube divinity
The peppers would go great on Pimmetto (I know I fucked that up) cheese.
I'm from Mississippi and that is the worst Comeback sauce I've ever tasted. I don't know that it's possible to bottle good Comeback sauce.
As a Mississippian I agree.
Where I work we have a decent one. But it's only for commercial kitchens. Otherwise, most definitely I refuse to eat a salad or an onion ring when i go out to eat. Can't trust these bottled comebacks
Imma be honest for someone who’s lived in Mississippi there whole life I haven’t heard or had any of these snacks before ever
