The Falklands War did not last until 2022! That commemorative flag must have been produced on the 40th anniversary (probably for veterans who served, I imagine). The war lasted from 2 April 1982 to 14 June 1982, so just over 2 months.
Don’t get rid of the cheese!!! It’s completely sealed in wax & would have sat out of a fridge for months, so pop it into the fridge! Also, if that’s Black Bomber by Snowdonia Cheeses, it’s AMAZING 🤣👍
When you eat skips you have to put them on your tongue and they melt. So good. Dandelion and burdock a very popular drink here in the UK. If you guys ever need a UK resident to talk you through any items please hit me up 😊
It was popular but who actually drinks it anymore. the only person i know who drank it bought poppadoms for breakfast so he isn't exactly normal. He would just sit there eating them dry it was weird 😂
The football shirts are a great gift…even though I’m a Nottingham Forest fan. Quick fact, Notts county are the worlds oldest professional association football club.
D&B is a soft drink made from the roots of the two plants that have been scrubbed clean and chopped up and dried. The roots are then lightly roasted like coffee beans then infused just like making tea. It is then strained to remove the solids and the liquid has other ingredients added to sweeten and stabilise and carbonate the drink just before bottling or canning. You are correct that it can be lovely with ice or just chilled in the bottle/can, but some people like to have it heated up to just below body temperature ( not me). As for the pink gin again it’s not really to my taste, but I do know how to make a pink gin. You need a bottle of clear gin and a bottle of something called Angostura bitters( a fairly strong alcoholic mixture that is made by infusing several ingredients including herbs and spices and the bark of some varieties of shrubs and then reducing the liquid by evaporating it to concentrate the flavours. You then get a chilled but dry glass and put a few drops of the bitters into the glass and swirl it around the glass to coat the glass as much as possible, then tip any remaining liquid out of the glass either into the next glass or straight into a drain, then pour your chilled gin into the prepared glass and stir to allow the gin to take up the flavours and colour of the bitters then have a drink. Pink gin used to be a popular drink in the officers mess on board the ships of the Royal Navy, but it was invented to cover up the taste of the sometimes poor quality gin that the ships were supplied with.
If the wax coating on the cheese is still intact then the cheese will be perfectly fine to eat. It will last for ages but best to keep it in the fridge after removing the wax.👍 Grate onto toasted bread and grill until golden and bubbley!
I'd try the cheese in the black wax...It may still be ok...Cheese takes a long time to properly go bad and extra mature cheddar is my fav...I wouldn't bin that unless it was green... and even then I'd cut the green bits off and still eat it on crackers or melted on toast over raw onion...
@annaandjt A beer made from the roots of edible wild flowers and herbs is common world wide, not all are alcoholic!, the recipes vary around the world and are dependent on available roots, In America there is root beer a generic name for their home grown beverage, unfortunately they don't include the name of the roots in their concoction, in GB the the name often includes the root name, eg- dandelion & burdock, Ginger beer, Chamomile Tea and many more, we know what's in our drinks you sure you know what's in yours?
That Cheddar cheese will be fine, People have been making and eating it since the 12 century and they didn't have fridges to keep it in, It's not in a fridge while it maturing and that can be for months.
My friend like to think he is posh, and always tries to hand me mouldy types of cheese 😆 I'm sure it's fine, some just smell like puke, with some blue fluff on it or something.
It's quite nice if you eat it melted, fry some strips of steak with mushrooms and onion, chuck a load of blue Stilton int he pan at the end and put it on a baguette or ciabatta. Its amazing 🤤 can't stand blue cheese on it own cold though
dandelion is a flower yes , burdock is the root you cut them up and boil them then let it simmer and then cool down and put the liquid in the bottles that is the real dandelion and burdock drink but companies do it differently

aldi randomly sells rootbeer for literally 2 weeks of the year, yet supplies prime drinkers with no hassle... which is wrong - rootbeer is my prime! carters rootbeer randomly appears in asda from time to time - but it's limited/restricted stock, so you have to just keep looking or go to the largest store you can physically get to. not seen it anywhere else. sainsburys used to sell it, but now don't.

Dandelions are actually a super food, they're seriously good for you. You can make jam with the heads/petals that tastes a bit like honey, you can use the young leaves and buds in salads and you can make a tea with the roots but I've heard it's closer to coffee than tea. You can even make dandelion wine! Check out the health benefits, there are so many!
Hi guys. Lovin' your content. Gin fact. Gin is known as mother's ruin. In the 1700 gin was cheaper than beer. Women would get addicted to it, and neglect their kids ( children ) hence the epithet. Keep up the great contact guys. 🇬🇧🇺🇸💜

@Jamie Derry what final processing? The wax is an airtight seal. Cheese can be kept months like that, that's the whole point. It says to keep refrigerated to maintain ease of removal of the wax. Food must have a best before or use by date by law even honey, which is the only foodstuff that does not go off.
Cheese has been made for thousands of years the fermentation is the preservation,, the storage instructions is just modern cobblers!! Do not put it in the fridge,, store under a thick stoneware cup just like yr granny wudda 🎉🧀😂
@@HolyFreakinDragonSlayer If extra mature cheese sits out in room temp maturing, why do we then need to keep it refrigerated once it's sold to us? ChatGPT Extra mature cheese, like other types of cheese, goes through a specific aging and maturing process under controlled conditions to achieve its desired flavor and texture. During this process, the cheese undergoes changes in its composition and develops complex flavors and aromas. However, once the cheese reaches its desired maturity and is ready for sale, it is typically packaged and sold under refrigeration. There are a few reasons for this: Preservation: Refrigeration helps to slow down the growth of bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms that can spoil the cheese. While the aging process may have made the cheese more resistant to spoilage, it is still susceptible to contamination and degradation if left at room temperature for extended periods. Shelf life: Refrigeration extends the shelf life of cheese. When kept cold, the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms is significantly inhibited, allowing the cheese to maintain its quality and flavor for a longer period. Food safety: Refrigeration helps prevent the growth of harmful bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause foodborne illnesses. Keeping cheese at a cool temperature reduces the risk of bacterial growth and minimizes the potential health hazards. Texture and taste: While extra mature cheese may develop its desired flavors at room temperature, refrigeration helps to preserve these flavors and maintain the cheese's texture. Exposure to higher temperatures can cause the cheese to soften, become oily, or even develop off-flavors. It's worth noting that certain types of cheese, such as aged and hard cheeses, can withstand short periods at room temperature without significant issues. However, for optimal quality, flavor preservation, and safety, it is generally recommended to store all types of cheese, including extra mature cheese, in the refrigerator after purchase.

Dandelion and burdock was created because they are medicinal herbs ,but luckily it tastes amazing ,so the drink now is more for the taste , you can buy the drink that is containing the actual herbs , but not the can . The taste is an aquired taste some lovebit some hate it like root beer .
i worked at burtons biscuits llantarnam factory for years and our line made fish and chips, cathedral city bites (just fancy mini cheddars) and maryland mini cookies (on different days obviously)
Dandelion Burdock is SO GOOD! Defo not for everyone, reminds me of medicine 😂 the cheese should be fine just put it in the fridge for a couple of days.
I think customs randomly picks packages coming into this country to open and inspect, and that one just got lucky enough to make it through without being inspected

hi guys the Gin and tonic drink, back in centuries gone by, im not sure if you have watched every country england has invaded video, but it was 60% of the world during the british empire, we learned stuff, stole stuff, and brought it back to the british shores. Like many of Britain's national favourites, gin did not originate on our shores. In fact, if you don't count the Italian monks who are thought to have used juniper berries as flavourings in distilled spirits back in the 11th century, it's Holland that's credited as the birthplace of gin Originally known as Indian Tonic Water, it has its roots in colonial India… but it's South America where things truly originated. Tonic's distinctive bitter flavour comes from quinine, which is derived from the bark of the cinchona tree
Sorry for the cheese with it in was i thought it be ok bit not expect it to take so long you have a second box sent a same time ? With some military items for you and your dad

_Dandelions are a superfood because they are so dense in nutrients, including calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, and antioxidants, such as vitamin A, vitamin K, and vitamin C. This nutrient-dense plant can support the immune system by reducing inflammation_
I plucked the flowers off all the Dandys in my Garden and threw them into a nice salad,
Highly recommended
_Taraxacum is a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, which consists of species commonly known as dandelions. The scientific and hobby study of the genus is known as taraxacology. The genus is native to Eurasia and North America, but the two most commonplace species worldwide, T. officinale (the common dandelion) and T. erythrospermum (the red-seeded dandelion), were introduced from Europe into North America, where they now propagate as wildflowers. Both species are edible in their entirety. The common name dandelion (DAN-də-ly-ən; from French dent-de-lion 'lion's tooth') is also given to specific members of the genus_
*Controlled blood sugar* _Dandelion greens can lower blood sugar levels in people with Type 2 diabetes_
*Diuretic effects* _Due to the high potassium content of dandelion greens, they work as a diuretic. Diuretics help increase urine output and treat water retention_
*Lower blood pressure* _Since dandelion greens are a diuretic, they can treat high blood pressure for some people. While the diuretic effect isn’t as powerful as a prescription medication, it can still be helpful when a mild diuretic is needed_
*Lower inflammation* _Dandelion greens contain natural anti-inflammatories. Reducing inflammation in your body can reduce your chances of developing certain cancers and heart disease_
*Antioxidants protect your health* _Oxidative stress can damage your cells and contribute to cancer, metabolic disorders, and disease. The antioxidants found in dandelion greens can protect your body and keep your immune system strong_
*Control cholesterol* _Dandelion greens affect lipid metabolism. Preliminary studies show they might be useful in lowering cholesterol_

Hi JT & Anna. The Falklands War lasted just a few months in 1982. The flag was just stating the fortieth anniversary since then
You might find that it’s been 40 years since the Falklands War and not 20 years.
@@timglennon6814 Oops,sory,i'll correct that!
Notts county oldest professional football team in the world.
Those Fish 'N' Chips are an old brand (80s Burtons) which were bought out by Pepsi aka Lays and re-introduced in 2014 due to popular demand
i worked at burtons biscuits llantarnam factory for years and our line made fish and chips, cathedral city bites (just fancy mini cheddars) and maryland mini cookies (on different days obviously)
The walkers roast chicken crisps are gorgeous eaten between two slices of bread and butter as a sandwich yum yum xx
The Cheese wrapped in wax will be fine but you may want to put them in the fridge to firm it up.
You lifted the box and I laughed so hard I woke my wife up 😂
Dandelion Burdock is SO GOOD! Defo not for everyone, reminds me of medicine 😂 the cheese should be fine just put it in the fridge for a couple of days.
The falklands war lasted from April to June 1982
Ayyy shout out to the lad that sent you the Notts County kit. Thats dope.
Forest >> though
I think customs randomly picks packages coming into this country to open and inspect, and that one just got lucky enough to make it through without being inspected
Y'all be drinking flowers? It's British Root Beer! You do that too. Dandelion & Burdock is made from Dandelion & Burdock root.
Love Dandyliion and burdock. It is a really old English drink. :)

Nottingham Forest are premier League , Notts county just got promoted back to the football league!! Forest just stayed up ! After 23 years outside the premier league..
hi guys the Gin and tonic drink, back in centuries gone by, im not sure if you have watched every country england has invaded video, but it was 60% of the world during the british empire, we learned stuff, stole stuff, and brought it back to the british shores.
Like many of Britain's national favourites, gin did not originate on our shores. In fact, if you don't count the Italian monks who are thought to have used juniper berries as flavourings in distilled spirits back in the 11th century, it's Holland that's credited as the birthplace of gin
Originally known as Indian Tonic Water, it has its roots in colonial India… but it's South America where things truly originated. Tonic's distinctive bitter flavour comes from quinine, which is derived from the bark of the cinchona tree
Sorry for the cheese with it in was i thought it be ok bit not expect it to take so long you have a second box sent a same time ? With some military items for you and your dad
In wax
The cheese should be fine, it’s completely sealed in wax as you say Sarah! And was it the amazing Black Bomber cheddar??!! 👍😁
That cheese should still be fine if the wax seal is undamaged! Nice of you to send it. I wonder what had leaked in the box, any idea?
Yes it was black bomber from Wales
The mustard i sent them English and French i am sure if was that
You two are an adorable couple and i cannot get enough of your accents. May god continue to bless you both.
Dandelion and Burdock is one of our favorite drinks that make part of a fantastic fish supper from a proper chippy ✨🤗

Dandelion and Burdock 🥳🎯🔥🔥🔥all part of a perfect Friday night 🎉
Dandelion and burdock one of the original root beers😊
doritos have limited time whopper flavour now, that would explain the coupon
Great team Notts County, a really historically important club.
The Cheese should be fine if it is still sealed completely in wax with none of the cheese exposed just put it into the fridge to harden up as it will have melted on the way to the states if it is mature it will have a strong smell and taste
Fish n chips crisps are THE BEST! They’re like little crackers
Dandelion and burdock goes well with the fish and chips crisps
The flag you have isnt a union jack unless the flag is on a boat so its name if it isnt on a ship is the union flag
