Let us know in the comments what you make of the American food in London, even though you can't taste it.. just let us know your thoughts! We really enjoyed making this vlog and we have been overwhelmed by the amount of love in the comments since introducing this style of video onto our channel.

"True friends don't speak when food comes" t-shirt is neeeeeded in my life ❤️😘
That's SUCH a good thing for our merch!! We will make note of it! x
I know its a stupid question but are they dating
They're not dating, but they should just give up and get married. They're so compatible.
Yes! Good merch item!
You also need "Triggered!" and "Offended" T-shirts. :D
When both of you are in public, you appear to be ten years younger in terms of excitement and enthusiasm. It is so cute ❤️
Hahha that's jokes!
Being British: Joel & Lia 😂😂❤️❤️❤️👍🏼.
Sorry, but those are hardly nachos, and I don't know what that thing is that looks like a hot dog covered with nacho cheese and ham. In Texas, nachos are smothered in spicy ground beef and nacho cheese, and topped with guacamole and sour cream. The hot dog would be covered in chili and topped with shredded cheese and onions.
Yessss I live in Texas and we put all that stuff on our nachos and she was not eating no nachos
Thats America gor you
here in milwaukee we have a different style brother.
I'd prefer nachos had actual cheese rather than cheese sauce. Cheese sauce is gross
That didn’t look like sour cream either. It had chunks of something not white in it.
Oh honey honey honey honey I don’t know what those are but they are not nachos
Tanya DuPras I was thinking the same thing
And....when you said guac and rhymed it with quack, I snorted, I laughed so hard! Lia....It's guac, like rock or sock! Next time, let someone from San Diego make you some nachos, ok? (You'll never go back)
I was wondering what it was hahaha!! 😂😂
Tanya DuPras is that what she had for breakfast? Lol..
Yes, those are some SAD nachos. But even in the US it can be hard to find good Mexican food (really TexMex) if you stray out of the southwest. You guys need to find a GOOD Mexican restaurant when you visit.
As an American who lived in Enlgand for a few years, I can say that the only "American" food that you Brits were able to do correctly was Five Guys Burgers. Everything else that we tried that was "American style" tasted nothing like what it's supposed to taste like. For a real 'Murican meal, you have to come to 'Murica!
Dion Dixon I decided to try an American style restaurant in Northamptonshire. They seemed very proud of their ribs, so I tried them. They were boiled and coated i'm HP.
We lived in Winchester where there was a restaurant that prided themselves on "American style" pancakes. They were about 4" diameter and 1" thick, with a tiny dribble of syrup. While tasty, they weren't anything like a real American pancake!
...HP??
Phil K HP brown sauce.
thanks, had never heard of it. Googled it after you replied, and it seems in the collective opinion of the internet, its in a strange place between A1/wshire/BBQ.
Wired how they serve the milkshake in the metal cup. They're supposed to serve it in a glass and then give you the metal cup as the extra. (They mix it in the metal cup)
There are places in America that serve it in the middle cup just as an extra dose of nostalgia and giving a different experience. I'm not sure if Johnny Rockets does that or not, but I've been places where they do it, just like other places will serve you iced tea or cider in a mason jar just to make sure the experience is notably different than just putting your drink in a regular glass.
@@Jack_Stafford Johnny Rockets puts it in a glass with the extra in the metal cup.
Right I thought that too
It makes sense though, the metal cup would keep it cold longer
Maybe the British broke to many mugs so they just served it in metal instead.
34.99 for a bag of Hershey’s is highway robbery.
Indeed
I gagged when I saw that, they should just go to COSTCO! HAHAHA
3.49 pounds (five bucks) would be pushing it.
Being British: Joel & Lia 14.99 for queens candy but 34.99 for hersheys. Holy shit. Lol.
Apparently it’s sh¡t compared to Cadbury’s
What a sad little plate of wannabe nachos.
I was thinking the same thing. Even Taco Bell nachos look superior to those.
They don't eat as much as we do (smaller portions)
If anyone wants amazing nachos, go to Guerro's in Austin, TX
at least they serve em
I like that they went out for American food, and Lia ended up eating Mexican food, lol.
Those nachos looked like the crap you pay $3 for at little league baseball games and school fundraisers that charge ¢75 extra for chili and ¢50 for canned jalapeño slices lol
When you said the pancakes were massive...and my American butt was like "wtf is he talking about?!?! Little tiny pancakes" #americanproblems hahaa
LOL, here in NYC we call those pancakes Sanddollars. The tiny ones. I Hop has the big ones.
Jasmine Gutierrez because your a pig.
Jillian Lehmann exactly! I thought people were joking when they say "AMERICAN SIZE"
Lou Ann Griffin screw off
Having huge portions is not something to brag about.
I would welcome more vlogs in this style. It really shows off your personalities and what great friends you are when you're just out and about having a blast with your bestie.
"true friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable"....
Cannot believe 34.99!!! For a bag of kisses?? Those are like $4 here or 6.00 in British pounds.
I hate to say this but all of those dishes appeared to be a British version of some American idea. I have never seen what I think was a "hot dog" in the US. I don't know what those "nachos" were. The pancakes or waffles looked like a kitty meal.
I can get Walkers bickies in Iowa for much less money. The variant on Eggs Benedict is sort of something American but baked beans for breakfast is more British than the House of Windsor. Who would have "mac & cheese" with/for breakfast?
I think you meant a kiddy meal. Kittys should not be served pancakes.
Just about EVERYTHING is a ripoff.
NEVER beans for breakfast in america
The only beans I've ever heard eaten at breakfast is refried beans Otherwise, no beans for breakfast
@@MeanJohnDean I've never heard either I assumed it was an error. I've only heard of kids meal ☺️
We call Whole Foods “Whole Paychecks” because it’s literally a whole paycheck to shop there
Mark Reed lmaooooooo true
Trader Joe's or Sprouts is way cheaper and I feel are better quality products.
For those who need a translation, paycheck means paycheque
hahaha - sad but true.
It is here too!! I don't think i've ever gone in and bought anything at a whole foods market. I tried to go to market basket.
As others mentioned, the mac & cheese and baked beans aren't normal breakfast sides for Americans (baked beans maybe in a few locales, but not common). With pancakes, we'd more often get a side of 2 eggs, side of crispy bacon or sausage (patty or links) or maybe ham, side of hash browns or grits, or side of fruit. Personally, if not pancakes/waffles/French toast, my favorite is a chicken fried steak topped w/ sausage gravy with scrambled eggs and hash browns...and maybe an English muffin (America's crumpet) w/ grape or strawberry jam/jelly. Biscuits (NOT cookies!) & gravy is nice too...if you don't care about meals w/ no nutritional value. ;-)
Brits really hate Biscuits and Gravy for some reason. Worked in film industry and had a lot of Brits say they'd never tried it and as soon as they did... NOPE! I think it's a mental thing as though it's 'cookies and gravy' and they can't wrap their heads around an american 'biscuit'.
@@MST3Killa I just think they don't get American biscuits...that they just seem like a lump of salty bread stuff to them. Like THEIR cuisine is totally awesome! ;-)
@@MST3Killa biscuits and gravy is the poor American imitation of Yorkshire pudding in my opinion...I'm American and I've had both.
@@flamingpieherman9822 That's fine, Yorkshire pudding tastes like shit to me.
btw cookies were invented by the Dutch and that is what they named the leftover dough they made pastry cakes with cookie means tiny cake so biscuit is wrong sorry british but I still love and worship your kissable bums are you reading this lia you Grecian goddess !
Ok those are not true American nachos. We serve them in AZ. With the chips first ,melted cheese/cheese sauce, then the taco meat/carne asada meat , refried beans on top that then your salsa, these are optioball sour cream, guacamole some onions an cilantro grated cheese for garnish. That is the loaded southwestern nachos so when you dip the chips or pull one out you get a bit of all the flavors mixed.
debra parkhurst Az mex is trash. Cali mex is the best.
Prince rose. Lol uh you keep on thinking that.
I don't think I know. So...
Prince rose hahaha too funny love it
debra parkhurst yo Im from socal. I go to px, tucson, flag staff, havasu and kingman all the time.
Mac n cheese, bbq beans aren't breakfast food in America. They are more lunch or supper side dishes. Hot dogs are lunch, sausage or bacon is breakfast. But everything looked great...you must have been in a food coma for the rest of the day eating all the sugar and carbs that early...lol.
Hazel Juanita Millan-Hoffman I agree those aren’t breakfast foods whatsoever
Right -- this was breakfast!? This is like a one-way trip to an ulcer for breakfast.
The way you pronounce Guac 😂
Juaocamole ..... Wok kah moh leh.
Absolutely!
Gwack
My motto: if you're not 15 minutes early, you're late. Lol.
PilotB fangirl I'm 4 minuets late then 😂
Ooopsieee
Being British: Joel & Lia yes that's the American slogan. We can't stand when people are late. And we can't stand slow table service and the list of what we can't stand goes on and on :) I love milk chocolate but I agree it's very American. 34 Euros for Hershey's outrageous I think they cost me 7 American dollars at the store. Time to order from Amazon.
Paul Bailey we tend to be very German in terms of punctuality.
PilotB most people I know would say that If you're 15 minutes early, you're on time
But, me personally, I'd tell people that If I'm an hour early, I'm on time
Loved it! Loved it! More of these adventures please...I watched these on my big screen.
I love when you guys are walking around visiting places in the city. It brings back good memories of when I visited. It makes me want to be there.
When I was in college, my boyfriend worked at Cinnabon and he smelled like cinnamon buns ALL-THE-TIME. I could NOT get the smell of cinnamon buns out of his clothes! Wasn't entirely unpleasant... Good memories.
Beans for breakfast, not in America. While we have poached eggs it's not a favorite, we'd have them scrambled and cooked all the way through. Macaroni is also odd for breakfast. We would have scrambled eggs, omelette, pancakes (like the ones you had), sausage (link or patty), hashbrowns, toast, cereal, coffee, orange juice, donuts, waffles.
You forgot the bacon! Real 'Murican bacon, not that ham-like stuff they have in England.
Corba milk, speak for yourself, there's nothing better than a runny egg yoke, especially over some hash browns. Back in the 1970's I cooked in a IHOP, by far the most common way eggs were requested was eggs over easy. But you are right in that I only had to make poached eggs when a customer ordered an eggs benedict, which wasn't near as often as I had to make scrambled, though scrambled was less than over easy. It looked like Lia was enjoying a variation of an eggs benedict.
When I saw that egg slowly running down the side, i can understand why someone coined the phrase ""food porn.''
Runny yolks and refried beans w/ some red rice is also good
Pinto Beans for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner for Mexicans in America! Huevos Rancheros, Chorizo con Huevos, Chile Rellenos, Huevos a la Mexicana!
You guys are like the UK version of Will and Grace! Love love love!
So true✌
Why are they like Will and Grace? Is Joel gay?! I don’t think so....
Corndogs are not served on buns.
Precisely- the corn part- IS the bun...
Those yummy, cheap sausages dipped in batter and deep-fried!😋
@@Thesdr666 no, that would be a corn breaded hotdog, corn dogs are completely different.
That's like having fish n chips in a bun.
IKR, how the hell do you mess that up of all things
I'm disappointed in this video you didn't try to trigger anyone. I guess Food brings people together.
Next time we'll bring our A-game!
+Being British: Joel & Lia Actually this time you brought your A +++++ game. I enjoy your going out and doing things videos. You seem more relaxed in them and it's fun to go on the journey with you. I'm looking forward to your vlogs from NYC. And please don't spend the whole time in Manhattan. Explore the other boroughs. Maybe compare and contrast Manhattan and Brooklyn, listen to the different accents each borough has, things like that.
They DID call Hershey vomit.
Hershey uses artificial chocolate.
Also tons of things to do OUTSIDE NYC. Day trip to Montauk!
That cheese at Whole Foods looked so good, I'm kind of obsessed with smoked cheeses, my favorite is smoked cheddar, most of the time here in the U.S. cheese comes in 8 oz. blocks, I've been known to just eat the whole thing in one sitting, super healthy, I know!
Omg smoked cheese is everything
Being British: Joel & Lia Cheese is amazing. My father-in-law orders pizza with “As much cheese as you can legally put on it” Which in AZ in the USA is apparently 6xs cheese
We have a store in my town that has a huge selection of cheeses from all over the world, I always drool over all the different kinds for awhile, then almost always end up buying one of the smoked ones. 🤣
Something I love about your channel and the comparisons is a bit of, "It's okay for you to pick on us and us on you (yes, believe it or no, it's a two way street!)," but anyone else do it to you and there's hell to pay! I'd say it's much like that with us and Canada, too. Kind of like you're an older sibling that might think they're a bit better at times but anyone else (other countries) pick on Britain or Canada and the US would be right there to stand up to the bullies! And yes I know we're viewed as the bullies often. Not sure that makes sense but there's a strong tie among the three, especially here in the Pacific Northwest (Seattle, Washington--yeah, I know, to names for a place). Love you guys!
OMG! This is my new fave video! It's so cool! And now I'm starving. Love these vlogs. Keep em coming. Great selection of food choices too. Wonderfully fun topic. Thanks! Love and cheers! 👍💗😘🇬🇧
Love ya Tek
Such a fun video! Americans say guac and it rhymes with walk. You say guac and it rhymes with quack. Interesting. I love the shortbread! I buy it here.
I so enjoy watching both of you and getting your unique perspective on British culture and American culture. You obviously enjoy one another's company and have so much fun together, I was quite surprised to hear that you aren't indeed, a couple. Please keep posting these VLOGs because they are so entertaining and fun to watch.
I honestly don't think any of the food you had was very American. The pancake looked American though. But, I love your videos of going around London. I want to see a tour. Pretty please?
Mat I feel like what Lia had was a hipster derivation of eggs Benedict
Lia, you are right that eating spicy food does need a build up if you're not used to it. I'm part Mexican and when I married my husband (who is as white boy as they come) he thought nearly every Mexican dish I made was very spicy. It wasn't really. He loved it so he kept just building his tolerance up. Now he can handle just about anything spicy. His family though, will go through gallons of milk and water whenever I cook for them! And a part of my little Mexican soul died when the neighbors put ketchup on my burritos!
... wait, KETCHUP on burritos? Eww! I'm as white boy as they come too. I've never built up my tolerance for spice either (and I live in Texas!) but even I would never put ketchup on a burrito! Tons of cheese, yes, but not ketchup.
Yeah, I was horrified! There are so many burrito options and that is what they went with?!
Lol! And I thought it was bad that I put a ton of sour cream on them.
Mexican food is not spicy. Mild at best. Stop it.
Speak for yourself jerkwad. Not everyone can tolerate spice.
Lia the way you saw guac KILLS me! Sounds like you’re saying quack 😂
It’s cinnagone
Matt Airriess took me a second LOLOL
This was great. My name was/is never on personalized items. Really you guys don't like Hersey's? It's not the best chocolate but it will do. But not for 35 pounds!! Jesus crazy expensive. I do like Cadbury. If you make it to Southern California look for See's Candy stores. You 2 will love it! I so enjoyed this video. Very fun.
Side note...Dear gawd, Joel pancakes, BBQ beans, & Mac and cheese? You have a stomach of steel!
Hahaha, OMG that plate of nachos is . . . bare! I love your frequent portion comparisons and this I really noticed! That plate would be twice that size and HEAPING with nachos and melted cheese and . . . stuff! Hahahaha!
But, they're usually ordered as an appetizer to share!
WTF????!!!!???? $34.99 for Hershey's Kisses??? That's savage robbery!!! Looked like a $12.99-15.99 bag, depending on where you live, but $35 is insane!!!
Thats London prices for you, all done to rip off tourists
VAT tax and of course the required tariffs which we can't charge in your stuff. Hope Trumps ends that.
FYI: Hersheys became a "House-hold-name" in the U.S. by being a staple in soildiers dailey ration kits in world war 2, and never had an advertisement to do it. The only Adds they had were 4 road signs on the 4 roads into Hershey Pennsylvania.
lee pagnini Things like sugar were strictly rationed in the UK during WWII, so a GI with Hershey bars and Wrigley's gum in his pockets was very popular with British kids. A few years later, US pilot Gail Halveson, aka "Onkel Wackenflugel," was dropping tiny parachutes with packets of American sweets for half starved Berlin tots during the Berlin Airlift. Funny how such a mundane item as sweets have figured so prominently in history.
Hershey's is now an embarrassment to the US.... what awful chocolate-less 'chocolate'
URUSOIMI
WTF?
Oreo's are also no better than the generic knockoff's now. All sugar and no Chocolate. It's the fake 'chocolate' shortage......to drive up prices of course.
Sugar was also rationed here in the U.S. during WWII. I remember my Mother had a book with little stamps in it . You were only allowed One bay per month. Bubble gum was also rationed , that stuff went to the troops overseas.
Y'all should try some Soul Food 😋 when visiting the States.
Also, try hitting small mom&pop establishments instead of the big chains.
Great content 🙌🏾 guys!
I love how Lia says guac. It sounds like she’s saying “quack” but with a “g”.
Why how do you say it? ahhaha
I hate it it's so wrong it sounds like a bad duck impression
not hating on them just that one word
Lia says it the correct way. It's guacamole, not "guahcamole".
We say it with an "aw" sound-- guawck
Omg, Brown Sugar Cinnamon POP Tarts are my absolute favorite! Excellent choice!
YESS Justin
God Bless America I hate the Frosted ones. ;)
Justin Taylor My favorite, too, but far better toasted!
Paul Bailey BSC are the only frosted ones I like.
John Speer who doesn’t toast them?! Everyone: ALWAYS toast your pop tarts!!
Americans love hershey's because for the longest time it was the only chocolate people could get, it was the first mass produced (affordable) chocolate in America. It gets its unique tangy (sour) flavor from the original process to preserve the milk. That was the largest cost initially was the milk, how to have enough fresh milk for mass production before widespread refrigeration. The solution was the control the spoil of the milk, so hershey's actually used spoiled milk in its production, and that is what you're tasting that you can't stand. Many Americans grew up with that flavor so it became a good thing. That sweet and tangy flavor tastes like childhood to many people here. Eating that around a campfire when you're supposed to be putting them in smores. :)
Thanks for the lesson. Didn't know that about Hershey Bars. We always used Hershey's as the generic term for a chocolate bar. Sorta like Kleenex for tissues.
This American doesn’t love Hershey’s. It’s just nasty.
Goober jelly is a legitimate American product. It would even make sense if it weren't overpriced. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a common kid lunch.
The diner food looked more or less like an actual American restaurant. I was going to say that people don't go to diners to eat hot dogs, but then I remembered that I grew up near a "world famous" hot dog restaurant called Tony Packo's. Let's say hamburg restaurants are much more common than hot dog ones.
I just checked out if the hot dog cart was in downtown crossing in boston. It is, but they want $6 for a hot dog. I think the last time I got one off that cart, before the virus, it was like $3.00 or $2.50. Prices for food are crazy now. I can't even afford to eat. I go shopping in the market for several things and it cost me $40.
You must try 'See's Candies' when you visit the U.S.A. This American chocolate is wonderfully delicious. You'll be greeted with whole samples upon entrance! Please look up the history, prior to going. It is a really great story. See's Candies, is what most Americans relate to, as being "American Chocolate", with the exception of Hershey's milk chocolate, which is used in S'mores by an open campfire.
See's is good, but there are a lot of other really good small chocolate shops in the US as well. Boehm's in Issaquah (near Seattle) and Halletts in Spokane are two excellent premium chocolate shops that make their chocolates onsite.
Sabrina Shires Hershey's is made from veggie oil. They changed the recipe 20 years ago from butter solids...... I live in California and my family has loved Sees since the 40's
"Most Americans"? I'm American and I've never even heard of See's. I'm willing to give them a shot, though.
HickoryDickory86 you must be an east coaster.
HickoryDickory86 been around since 1920. Warren Buffet purchased it in 1972 as their first company Berkshire Hathaway bought and continue the practice of expanding ever do slowly. Sees.com
Enjoyed this very much. You took us for a nice walk about. Thank you. Glad you liked the milk shake!
Hi, Joel and Lia. This was another great fun video!
"True friends don't speak when food comes." This should be on a tee-shirt or something.
I googled it. Every website that I found says it's pronounced "new-tell-uh" (Lia's way).
Can always count on you Mark to see where I'm coming from! Everyone in the comments has annihilated me and chosen to side with Joel. Yay for the quote
A scientific study in Canada actually proved that coconut water and water equally hydrated. Most coconut brands cannot advertise that it hydrates more than water now
pop tarts for 5.99 ??? At my local grocery store Pop tarts were just on sale for 1.40 ( GBP ) or $ 1.85 US.
Yep, and if I recall a story about Europe in general is that prices on just about every retail item (food or otherwise) is quite a bit more expensive than they are here in the US.
It's because of the tariffs (Importation tax) that the U.S. charges for exported goods. They have to make up that cost. That's why things from out of country are often more expensive.
I'm American and of all the meals I ate in London by far the worst meal I had was an attempt at an American cuisine.
Good to know Jess. We are very sorry to hear that
I've also noticed this on my adventures in Europe. They don't do American cuisine well.
Being British: Joel & Lia thanks for your sweet reply. No need to apologize as London had so many other wonderful things to offer. Its truly an amazing city. Although San Francisco will always have my heart (being a bay area native), London comes close.
Karl Toth they do not but they sure serve up some amazing Indian food!
Jessica Jessica: As an American I'm hard pressed to nail down an American cuisine. What did these places serve?
I always click your videos so fast 😂 you two always make the day better. ❤️❤️❤️
Aww thanks Jeremy
The man has a beautiful speaking voice
I'm lowkey embarrassed by the fact that foods we buy in the breakfast aisle of a grocery store you guys buy at a candy store
Laura Anderson hmm they sell them in the cookie aisle here.(Oregon)
Pop-Tarts?? Yeah, that's smart. But is the sugary cereal with the breakfast foods?
Laura Anderson I thought the same thing!
That sweets shop is a specialty shop for y'all, but I find those things in Walmart and think nothing of it lol Love seeing America from other people's view
Marcus Thomas right? Or down the road at the local Dollar General😂
Almost all the stuff sold in that Kingdom of Sweets shop can be found in any American supermarket: in the candy and cookies aisle, in the breakfast cereals aisle, in the snack foods aisle, at the bakery, sometimes in the imported/specialty food aisle, and even in the bulk food aisle.
Sorry Lia but I side with Joel on this one, definitely Nut-ella! It's not made of newts 😂 also, that Breakfast Club food looks absolutely amazing! 😍
that what-a-melon looked really good though.
I love you two’s personalities. When I first started with you guys, I thought you were a couple. Seeing how well you two get along not being a couple, I’d say your chemistry is amazing. Keep up the great videos!! 💕
Mac and cheese with pancakes ... that's a weird combination... 🤢
Americo Galindez I thought so too!🤢
Definitely not a combo we'd eat in the US (at least here in the northeast). Pancakes are eaten with bacon/sausage/ham!
Chris Freemesser Yesss! A side dish might be eggs, hash browns, or even biscuits and gravy, if you get one of those giant combos at IHOP or Denny’s
And I’ve heard of chicken and waffles, but not waffles the way Lia had them. I actually prefer mine with butter and maple syrup!😋
And the beans with pancakes???? Not something you’d get here. 😝
Yes, we do have the "Goober" pnut butter and jelly mixed, I have a jar in my cabinet now! 😊
Catching up on the back catalog of videos. Yes, Brown Sugar and Cinnamon Pop Tarts! Yes, on the Goober Grape (PB and Jelly together) it was as childhood fave. Yes, on Kylie Minogue playing in the background. Also, back in 2017 (I think), I also attempted a stop at Breakfast Club, whilst visiting London, and the line was too long. Looks so good.
Love this one!!! But Sorry Lea, Joel’s right about Nutella. 😜 i would also love trying out your version of nachos!! 😂 (I love the way you say guac) And yes we do have peanut butter and jelly (jam) in the same jar. LOL. 35 pounds for a bag of kisses??? Are you kidding?!?! You can get Kisses in BULK here for 15 USD, and a simple bag for 4! Love you guys! 💖
I'M SHOOK.. and yeh.. outrageously expensive!!
I'm confused ): what was American about any of that . Besides the store with American snacks
Love watching the videos, y'all should try some Southern Comfort foods if ya haven't already. Chicken fried steak with mashed taters (country gravy) and homemade Mac n Cheese. Best out there
Ed’s easy diner kinda looks like “Johnny Rockets”
angelgalvarado or Mels diner
34.99 for a bag of candy??!!! And 13.90 for a combo meal, wow! That's really expensive. I wish we had a breakfast club, your meals looked amazing. Except, I don't eat poached eggs :) fun video!
I love you both so much. You always have honest opinions but are so lovely & positive to the American culture. I was a flight attendant for 16 years and been fortunate to travel the world and spent loads of time in the best US cities. I live in Texas now and so love it having lived in Seattle WA, Washington DC, Boston MA, Houston TX, Cleveland OH... Texans are such warm and wonderful people. I hope you visit here one day.
Can you guys do a vid where you speak with an American accent the whole time? Wanna see if you do it!! 💯💯🙏🏼😂
Yes I agree! Maybe a whole video where you try to talk and act like Americans, that would be epic! :-)
Brown sugar cinnamon is the best Pop Tart.
Jeff Morse Bro.
Sorry but it’s actually chocolate chip cookie dough
Agreed, finished a box the other day
Frosted blueberry for me.
+Jeff Morse I totally agree, especially the cinnamon one without the icing. Chocolate fudge would be my second favorite--and the only one with icing that I like.
New England clam chowder. Caesar salad. Jumbalaya. Cornbread. Lobster. Cranberry anything. Virginia sausage. Maple syrup. Pecan pie. Pecan anything. barbeque. So many regional varieties. Buttermilk biscuits. Shoo fly pie. Baked beans. New York Cheesecake. Potato chips were invented here. Pulled pork.
American food is not just grocery convenience food.
Bubba Gump Shrimp was started because of the Forest Gump movie watch it please....
This was fun. The bag of Kisses that was so expensive - Here in the US, it'd be about $5. LOL CRAZY!
Rick Mitchell everything is over priced in England since the government have made so many cuts within businesses and services cause they are "saving money" everything is just going up and up in price all the time. Everyday living is just so expensive now unfortunately
Annie Graham but the high price for those candies and all the American sweets is because it was imported and imported products cost a heck of a lot more.
kisses were definitely not worth that price
Lots of tariffs and they do have that NHS to pay for.
All of the prices were like 2 or 3 times the price of what we pay for food in America. No wonder we're so fat.
I just discovered you guys (and immediately subscribed). I can barely believe the fast pace of your commentary, the two of you switching off instantly and seamlessly, talking fast in what feels like highly choreographed dialogue. I gather that is just your style. Well, it is fun! You probably don't know you are reinventing at least two old examples of this kind of dialogue. In the 1940s some "screwball comedy" films were built this way (Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn, Jimmy Stewart and others used this pattern). More recently a comedy sitcom called Gilmore Girls featured rapid delivery dialogue. Gilmore Girls scripts contained almost twice the number of pages as ordinary scripts. Your version of this has a fun energy that seems to reflect spirited, positive attitudes.

Lia: "call me tacky I dont care"
Joel: "Tacky! you're tacky"
Lia: "I'm not tack!... Okay"
Im American and I hate Hershey's. Its mass produced, low quality, cheap chocolate. its far too sickly sweet for my taste. I stick with darker (75% and above) premium chocolates. Its worth it to spend a little extra on something that tastes much better.
Bigtexatx11 Hershey's changed their chocolate recipe 20 years ago from butter solids to oil. It's disgusting now
Yes, Ghirardelli is one of my faves.
Luna RikaRiko from San Francisco

Nope, at least not with any of their products that contain "milk chocolate". When it's labelled that way it can only contain milk fat and cocoa butter. No other kinds of oils are allowed.
This was so cool thanks for taking us with you. I got to see things I may never get to see but sure hope I do. Why are you guys not a couple?? You are like soul mates & look perfect together!
1 Biscoff milk shake is not American. What in the heck is biscoff ???
2 Thats not how nachos are made or served in the US
3 Hersheys tastes bad to Europeans because for some reason they put sour milk in their chocolate recipe.
4 No one in the US eats baked beans or mac and cheese for breakfast
5 no one in the US puts poached eggs on waffles
6 No one in the US puts cream on pancakes I was wondering what in the heck that white stuff was ?
Biscoff is delicious! It comes in cookie and spread form. Try it. My granddaughter LOVES whipped cream on pancakes, it's also delicious. We discovered it's deliciousness when trying to figure out a less messy alternative to syrup for a 2 year old.
.... I have had cream on my pancakes a lot in America... you would ether have it with fruity pancakes or chocolate pancakes
vampireraze
Thats really not cream like you have in Europe . Thats a desert whipped topping out of a can that you normally put on ice cream and pies etc.
No one puts cream on their pancakes. Thats a very unique European thing.
Here int he US its normally butter and maple syrup .
i put poached eggs on my waffles, and i’m in cali!! sprinkle some salt & syrup and TRUST ME, it’s to die for :)
bs061753
Thats very weird .NO one does that here
Love Joel in shorts btw More please PEACE
You two should go to Hersheypark, Hershey PA, sometime next year.
Have you seen the snickers commercial where two guys are in a car, and the guy in the passenger seat goes “do you like amands?” And the guy driving goes “nooo I like almonds” and hates his friend can’t pronounce almonds correctly?! It reminds me of the Nutella comment in your video!
I agree with Joel about Nutella. It’s a hazelnut spread. So nuts. Just saying.
SmoothRide it’s kinda like saying “by the way” actually.
Ok, well... Nutella's from Italy, so...
Also Joel is right about Nutella...
Like others have said, Nutella, while popular in the US, isn't American, it's Italian.
It is hazelnut, with chocolate aswell.
I'm new to Joel & Lia! Love the videos😊
I have a question for you guys. Do you guys have different foods for different areas? Here in America, I'm from West Virginia, we have Biscuits and gravy, pinto beans and cornbread. We have southern comfort foods in the deep south and Maine is the place for lobster dishes. Lousiana has amazing gumbos ect. Thanks for the great info! Have an amazing day!
I can never find my name a lot of the time as well Lia. Also you guys need to try American barbecue. It’s amazing!
mariah acuff that is a whole episode in itself because there is Memphis, southern, etc. different parts of America even consider different meats to qualify for barbecue. 🍗
Ummmm....we have “smeg,” but I don’t think you want to drink it.
I knew someone would say this! Lmao 😂
I’m dying over here 😂😂😂
Cracking up 😂
I’m an American in London right now so thanks for this! I’d been to THAT Cinnabon on two previous visits and was also heartbroken on this visit when we found it had been replaced 😢😭😖☹️
I'm American and have a daughter named Niamh. It's pronounced Neeve. She is also the only Niamh I have ever met here in the US ('meet' isn't the right word since she's my daughter, but you get the idea 😂)
Kristin Stalder there is a famous tv personality here in the US named “neeve” but it’s spelled NEV and is a man. I’m not sure of his heritage but he’s the only person I’ve ever seen with that name.
He was like “its so messy” that’s how you know it’s some good eatin😂
It really shocks me that you two are not a couple, you have such chemistry.
I've noticed in England you eat baked beans for breakfast. We eat them as a picnic food with hotdogs and hamburgers. We just got Kindereggs within the past year. My grandson is crazy for them.
Lia hun Joel is correct on pronouncing Nutella, you tell her Joel!
I disagree. He thinks it's Nutella he's WRONG
Being British: Joel & Lia whatever Lia😂 love you tho♥️
Being British: Joel & Lia Lia i have a video idea! I was thinking you could make a video of you guys reading Instagram dms?
Is no one putting it together that Nutella is made from nuts. Hence the name and pronunciation.
Being British: Joel & Lia I'm American and everyone I know including me pronounces it like joel😂
Oooo, The Breakfast Club is a great movie! :D Cool that there's a restaurant with the same name.
Also, wow, that candy/snack store's music is so loud. Do a lot of shops there have music intended to drown out conversations? I think that would drive me nuts. Here in the States when there's a store with super loud music, I don't want to go in. @_@
You guys DEF have to come to the middle US. Take a drive on Route 66, visit ANY Walmart, throw down a 7-11 Big Gulp (Dr Pepper, of course), and cut your teeth on a Allsups burrito. Most diners will have shakes, hamburgers, and fries. Bring a jug of antacids...you'll need them...and a 12-pack of toilet paper. So glad I lived in Europe for five years and know what good chocolate is (Hershey's chocolate bars here are gross). However, could never figure out WHY they NEVER put enough ice in any drink.
Chris DIYer. Fuck that! Come to America and drop a ton of acid, then never leave.
Chris DIYer do AGREE, the MIDWEST ROCKS!!
The Midwest is the best. I agree with you on the Route 66 thing. There are a ton of great dinners along the way.
Please don't ever recommend Walmarts to tourists. It is where low class and some of the worst kind of people in the US go shop for their cheap food and necessities. The stores are dumps filled with workers that know this is it as far as their career goes. At least tell them to go to Costco, Target, and all the various supermarkets.
Yes, NYC, Miami and L.A. are not typical US experiences. When you do come to California in September, rent a car and take a drive up the coast. Beautiful scenery, pretty little towns, etc.
I love American pancakes like I just can’t get enough
do brits eat American waffles? or cinnamon rolls?
both
Being British: Joel & Lia: Do guys have IHOP out there?
vidlink nope
Emily Victoria-Louise: That's a shame. If you come out stateside, go to an IHOP. Their variety of pancakes, waffles and eggs is always good.

LOVE the out n' about vlog!! You need to do travel tours!!! UK for us Yanks, then to the US for Brits (and for our general American amusement). Then who knows... A regular on nat geo including all of Europe? New Zealand? African Safari!?!
Just take us with you, we're dead bored of Utah. It's gorgeous here though a definite must see for your travels!
Mary Jane's were the one candy I'd get mad at and throw away if I found one in my Halloween bag after trick or treating. This comment wasn't at all important...just thought y'all should know haha!
are MJ's the ones that kinda taste like a Ricola cough drop?
Ricola cough drops! They always had a disgusting medicine like taste to them. I'd say a ricola is pretty accurate. It's supposed to be molasses & peanut butter taffy. Which would be great if they didn't taste like they came from the pharmacy.
"Massive pancakes"
Where???
This is so funny! As a Californian, I’m dying at the lack of guacamole on that plate! And the lollipops- my daughter’s name is Morgan 😚
I'm American and Hershey's is nasty!!! You really should try American biscuits and gravy sometime! I know it sounds gross but it's a creamy sausage gravy with what you might think of as a plain baking powder scone.
That is the American food to try!
Julie McAlister Yes! Biscuits and gravy!
I've never in my life had beans for breakfast... pretty sure that is totally UK only **edit** -After thinking about it I suppose there are regional differences. Perhaps Texas and SoCal. Other areas closer to the southern part of the continent it may be prevalent but as for myself I have never had beans at breakfast. Pizza yes and breakfast for dinner but never beans in the AM that I recall.
Or Mexican families
I'm from the UK myself and it totally is
Mexican Americans eat beans for breakfast.
What you never had beans and chorizo tacos for breakfast ? 😋
Leah's "fashionably" late. Our American slang for being late but not too late. Lol.
Joel looks ginger under the sun 😀
