Ritter sport can be found in Sweden as well, although not nearly as many different flavours.

Even as a German I love your videos man! The quality of your content is insane, so please keep it up (especially videos like this). I also have to say that your german pronounciation is really good. I am from the very north of Germany so it's refreshing to see Berlin from the view of an Australian. Especially because many Germans want to do a work and travel year in Australia, thus it's funny to see that Australians in Germany exist:D You also have a really calm and chill way of presenting cultural things and differences and also the expertise to really know what things are typicslly German things (eg "Pombären")
Thanks so much Lennard, very kind comment and will definitely try do more of these sorts of videos if they do well :) Some German words are still very hard for me to pronounce though!
I second that. The videos are a fair representation of everyday life in Germany. And they don't generalize in a way where they would be presented as kind of "EVERYBODY does this or that", which I can appreciate.
This was my first video of yours, so I don't know whether you were maybe raised bilingually, but even so - your German pronounciation is amazing. Spot on! I subscribed cause I enjoyed the video even though it was a tad too long for me.
Thank you so much Hedera. Yes, maybe it was a little too long :) glad you still enjoyed it. No, I’m a native Australian English speaker, and learnt a little German by myself when I came here!
damn， you really are one of the most "aware" youtubers. You know what what is, pronounciation is Spot on, good knowledge an responsible. Really enjoyed this viedo man. You got a new subscriber. Good Job.
You've filmed a really nice and interesting video. Your calm and peaceful voice is pleasant to watch, your topics always rich in variety. Keep on filming and stay healthy !
Philip from Adelaide here. I'm really enjoying your videos as they bring back lots of memories from our stays in Germany. Here's a tip. Try some of the discount supermarkets such as Netto, Penny, Lidl. Take us for a visit shopping there too. You will get a really pleasant surprise at the quality/price. Netto for example have very cheap pre-packaged cheesecake in the bakery section....and up the back, in the refrigerator, smoked sardines. Just grill a couple minutes. The low fat quark cheese is a really cheap way to get protein and tastes good on salad. Keep on trying everything! Asparagus season for you soon!
Oh, and if you want an adventure, there is an old fashioned tramway from Rahnsdorf to Woltersdorf. It is so cute, going through forest and can be used depending on your transport pass. The forest out that side of Berlin is really pretty. It is famous for a mystical animal . Rasselbock. (hare and deer parentage) You will see there are some restaurants in the country areas with that name. Then in Kopernick you have another famous legend... the list goes on an on. You could become famous telling the world about Berlin.
Thanks for the recommendations Philip, yeh I go to discount supermarkets very regularly. There’s so many foods for me to share online so I’m grateful that you let me know your thoughts on the video :) Also of course appreciate the recommendations, would definitely be another great idea for another video! Stay healthy mate!
Can you take us to a kitchen store: where you purchase the portable kitchens ? Also, German appliance stores. German tile store. i am interested in this. It would be a great video. :)
@@ExpatCaptures Next year then. :) BTW, I'm surprised to see "сгущённое молоко" in your kitchen, it is abnormally sweet. 🙃 Did you already try to cook it? Russians made something like toffee of it.
in my region, in germany, the most popular way to eat Sülze is with Remoulade and Bratkartoffeln. you should get your Sülze from a local butcher, because the meat will be on a higher quality level.
@@ExpatCaptures sülze muss einfach mit Bratkartoffeln und Remoulade gegessen werden. Die Bratkartoffeln schön gar gebraten und mit Speck und Zwiebeln. Dazu eingelegte Gewürzgurken aus dem Glas. Und als Getränk ein Pils.
Buying a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $260K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategies... I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.................
The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
This recommendation literally came at the right time, I’m down by $7k in stocks this week alone.. its crazy! I just looked up Jenny online and researched her accreditation. She seem very proficient, I wrote her detailing my Fin-market goals and scheduled a call...........................

16:12 SPAM. In the USA, it it called SPAM, and it is the most hated of meats. Not to mention oddly expensive, probably because it more processed and also in lower demand.
Leberwurst REALLY depends on the brand you pick up. Like, I am not a big fan usually, but I absolute love the "deluxe" Leberwust which is usually sold around Eastern and Christmas. Especially the ones with Truffels in it. Otherwise, I noticed that you went to Edeka...quite an expensive choice for a student. I recommend picking up the basics as a discounter (Aldi, Penny, Lidl aso) and only go to Edeka for the stuff they don't have and a few things where they have the better variant.
I must try if I see it! Thanks! Yep, Edeka is definitely known to be on the more expensive side, but I wanted to go here for the video because it was a very big supermarket :) more variety!
@@ExpatCapturesusually the leberwurst from the brand pommersche is rly good too, especially the one with chives aka schnittlauch in it, it tastes way better than any other leberwurst😃
looove your videos recently had to move home from berlin to canada as my visa ran out and these videos are such fun reminders of the city! do a video showing the clubs in berlin if you can :)
That slice of "liver preparation" is in fact typical french...a liver paté (called "terrine" from the earthern mold, it's made in) which might be called the fancy form of german Leberwurst.
May I ask, what’s taken you to Germany? I lived in the city of Bochum for twelve years. I’m now back in London but so desperately want to move back to Germany. I wish I had never left. Hope you have as much fun living there as I did 😊😊
Hey hey! I moved to be with my partner, but I was also born in Hamburg, so I wanted to learn more about this side of the world as well. :) thanks so much for watching
I really liked the video and your attitude. I appreciate that the food won't go to waste and that you look out for your health somewhat! Beware of the Milchschnitte and Kinder Pingui though, I don't think they are any better than candy health wise
As a Latvian I would eat it all, the liver pate, the blood sausage, matje herring etc. it is interesting, due to cultural heritage we have all that, also soljanka too since the Soviet past. Except for the raw meat thing, but seems like it would be good
Eating raw mett from a supermarket is very brave. In the past there were some scandals where the labels of old products have been replaced. If i would eat raw mett, i would get it at a metzgerei. In addition to onions, parsley tatses really nice. Whatever you try, toast is usually not the first choice of any german. A Brötchen or Bread would be prefered.
....believe me, you see it if mett isn't fresh anymore. The scandals relating to meat in the supermarket were all about meat which has been put into some some of marinade or sauce. Because that stuff does a great job hiding the actual freshness-level of the meat you pick up. But with "pure meat", your eyes and sense of smell are more than good enough to see if it is reasonably fresh or not. But yeah, the best raw meat is the one from the Biometzger.
Yes, Grützwurst is a type of blood sausage, thickened with wheat or such. I like to put it in (pure) kale. That way its already seasoned and it tastes real good. Also, the texture of the grützwurst which many do not like at all is replaced with that of the kale and more pallatable for everyone. Beware, it tends to burn, when added too early. Put in after finishing the cooking of the kale :)
Just found your channel and i like it ! Im from Germany but I never had the Leberpastete or Sülze and I don’t like Mettbrötchen but I think it’s interesting to see how other people to react to it ! I’ve never seen or heard anything about Club-Mate or Mate in general!
"Dickmanns" doesn't sound naughty to germans. You can basically translate it to "Fat man's" but i think "Dickmann" was actually the name of the brand owner. "Dick" means "fat" or "thick" in german. No genital implications here 😂 They were commonly (but unofficially) known as "Negerküsse" or "Mohrenköpfe" not that long ago. That would actually be illegal now, because both terms are related to people with black skin color 😅
Yes, but no doubt there was some fat guy (Dickmann) in the family a thousand years ago. But it said on the package that it was " super gross"! Yeah, I know, "really big with crispy chocolate".
I don’t really like club mate because like she said it tastes like ashtray to me but MIO mate ist very very good, it’s basically the same but it tastes a bit different and there’s different flavors. I especially enjoy Ginger so if you like mate I would recommend that too
I looved this liverpaste you picked up when i was a teen :) but the best one is the one with the red jelly. You did it right on that Toast :) bon apetit :-D I like youre video so much
Nice video. Instead of Leberpastete I prefere the Leberwurst. But as you know, Germans love their Wurst. Btw your German sounds great. Stay save and healthy.
Thank you Andi! Yes, Germans do love their Wurst 🥲😂. Thanks so much for watching. I have other videos where I eat some unique German foods so if you have time, feel free to check them out. 👊
Most of the German brands of chocolates (Leibniz and Ritter Sport etc.) and Haribo are pretty common in the US today, and not just at Aldi. All kinds of Kinder is all over the place where I live in Brooklyn but I'm not sure about elsewhere. NALF is a huge fan of Knoppers. I found them at Aldi and was sorely disappointed - very bland hazelnut cream, chocolate, and biscuit. I had to buy a pack of five and even tossed half of them.
Those peeled potatoes in a jar are most likely pickled. You've dodged a bullet there. By the way. A lot of people from other countries are worried about mett being raw meat. To calm you down: Mett is heavily tested and regulated, which is what makes it save, we don't go around and eat just any raw ground meat and wouldn't recommend that.
just so you know, that trolley shark thing, techincally is not illegal, but almost always violates the markets terms of service to which you agree upon entering the markets area, you can, if spotted, be confronted, in which case i advice to play the foreigner card if you don't want to get a permanent ban (Hausverbot) from the store. Also, if you leave the markets area with the trolly, because you might have parked at the street or something, it will legally count as theft. ;) just saying.
Appreciate your concern. But I mean let’s face it, millions of people do the same thing. The staff members would really have some spare time in their hands to ruin someone’s day like that. But I see the point.
@@ExpatCaptures the brand coins are excepted in the terms of course, but yes, they are usually very chill about such things but lets say, a regional manager (or even higher up) is in the market looking at how things are handled, as they do from time to time ... someone using that might come in handy to show, that they do indeed take things seriously. So if there is one in suit and tie with a nervous looking staffer around, better not to use it ;)
Most food are "special interest". If they are bought by 1-2% of the customer, they are kept on the shelf, not to loose these customers. And if some food is popular regional, a supermarket chain will distribute it nationwide, cause people move around also. This makes this huge variety. Most people buy only a very small subset of this.
The duck/goose liver pate is actually a recent addition to German mainstream. One only used to be able to find it in Delikatessen butcher shops and the like. It is mostly a French staple item, but French food has always been popular in Spain, so Pate is more mainstream there, too. When I say "recent" kids are going to frown at me, cause I mean "within the last 15-20 years, or so" 🤣.
@@grandmak. Ja, ich weiss, die Uebersetzung hoert sich lustig an.Wie ich es verstehe, nimmt man den ganzen Schweinskopf, kocht ihn, nimmt das Fleisch ab, gibt es in einen Schlauch, gibt Aspik dazu , laesst das ganze abkuehlen und fertig ist der Head cheese oder die Suelze.
@@ExpatCaptures Maybe there are regional differences? The butchers here in Bavaria just simply season the meat and put it on a bun with some onions. I really appreciate your calm voice and attitude. Had to subscribe 🙂
If you like Pom Bär you will LOVE "Pommels Original" ! But I´d recommend to explore organic food shops in Germany if you want to have a healthy diet. I was raised with the foods you have shown in this video. But I don´t buy any of that 40 years later anymore. I consider it all as junk food. Way too much sugar in almost all of them. You might want to add up the sugar you just ate for this video and compare it to the WHO recommendation (max. 30g per day) ;_)
Bahaha. Yeh I was definitely aware of how much sugar I consumed that day. Was hesitating on the last bites but wanted to do it for the video. Damn TH-cam :D
It's essentially a product made for old ladys who don't want to, or can make the effort to peel potatoes themselves anymore. Having all kinds of canned or jared food stored in the pantry or basement is also a common habit of the post war generation who grew up actually knowing food shortages.
@@ExpatCaptures die Fleischwaren, die du zuerst ausprobiert hast , sind eher speziell. Also die isst nicht jeder :D ich glaube du hast es beim probieren auch gemerkt. Ist was für speziellen Geschmack :D Die Süßwaren sind aber wirklich beliebt, die du ausgesucht hast (Schokolade geht immer)
I am always so sad when I see foreigners buy these bakery items from the supermarket, that are usually of lesser quality than what you get in a bakery. Also the preprepared meals and conserved meats. Homecooked is really so different and meats I would only buy at a good butcher. But then again these things exist and apparently people buy them, so this is also Germany,. Milka and Ritter are not the same as Cadbury though. Cadbury is not really known in Germany - I think. I am also baffled at the potatoes in a glas. That's a head-scratcher. I have to admit I only buy at the organic stores, so my selection is limited it seems. This is all very surprising to me as a German. Very interesting. You are quite brave and adventurous. I am a Germany and I would probably only eat a third of what you tasted.
Of course! Stay tuned. I will most likely tour many more apartments in Berlin on this channel, both rented and for purchase, furnished and unfurnished.

They were commonly (but unofficially) known as "Negerküsse" or "Mohrenköpfe" not that long ago. That would actually be illegal now, because both terms are related to people with black skin color 😅
Good to know..!
Yes, but no doubt there was some fat guy (Dickmann) in the family a thousand years ago. But it said on the package that it was " super gross"!
Yeah, I know, "really big with crispy chocolate".
Hey! How funny... you just walked down the street I live 🤣 nice content btw👍subscribed
Thank you ma’am :)
I don’t really like club mate because like she said it tastes like ashtray to me but MIO mate ist very very good, it’s basically the same but it tastes a bit different and there’s different flavors. I especially enjoy Ginger so if you like mate I would recommend that too
Yes, I love MIO Mate as well. I buy that sometimes too! I think they're both pretty nice :)
I looved this liverpaste you picked up when i was a teen :) but the best one is the one with the red jelly. You did it right on that Toast :) bon apetit :-D
I like youre video so much
Thanks Lui! Yeh it was not bad on toast! :)
Nice video. Instead of Leberpastete I prefere the Leberwurst. But as you know, Germans love their Wurst. Btw your German sounds great. Stay save and healthy.
Thank you Andi! Yes, Germans do love their Wurst 🥲😂. Thanks so much for watching. I have other videos where I eat some unique German foods so if you have time, feel free to check them out. 👊
@@ExpatCaptures I did and I will do!😎👍
German is in the title:
Germans: EIN VOLK, EIN REICH, EIN KOMMENTARBEREICH
Are food labels only in german or both german and english. ?
Only in German!
Thanks loving the videos and love the aussie accent. Regards from Melbourne
What a great TH-camr- great cardigan too
Oh stop babes! ❤️
You prounounciation is pretty much on point
Oh thanks!
Cuts an onion like a Chef
I’m far from it mate
Thank you,what about doner kebab and Mcdonalds,kfc,etc in germany?
I was thinking of doing a McDonald's video haha. Maybe in the near future :)
Most of the German brands of chocolates (Leibniz and Ritter Sport etc.) and Haribo are pretty common in the US today, and not just at Aldi. All kinds of Kinder is all over the place where I live in Brooklyn but I'm not sure about elsewhere. NALF is a huge fan of Knoppers. I found them at Aldi and was sorely disappointed - very bland hazelnut cream, chocolate, and biscuit. I had to buy a pack of five and even tossed half of them.
Each to their own taste I guess.
Those peeled potatoes in a jar are most likely pickled. You've dodged a bullet there.
By the way. A lot of people from other countries are worried about mett being raw meat. To calm you down: Mett is heavily tested and regulated, which is what makes it save, we don't go around and eat just any raw ground meat and wouldn't recommend that.
Thanks for the comment :)
just so you know, that trolley shark thing, techincally is not illegal, but almost always violates the markets terms of service to which you agree upon entering the markets area, you can, if spotted, be confronted, in which case i advice to play the foreigner card if you don't want to get a permanent ban (Hausverbot) from the store. Also, if you leave the markets area with the trolly, because you might have parked at the street or something, it will legally count as theft. ;) just saying.
Appreciate your concern. But I mean let’s face it, millions of people do the same thing. The staff members would really have some spare time in their hands to ruin someone’s day like that. But I see the point.
@@ExpatCaptures the brand coins are excepted in the terms of course, but yes, they are usually very chill about such things but lets say, a regional manager (or even higher up) is in the market looking at how things are handled, as they do from time to time ... someone using that might come in handy to show, that they do indeed take things seriously. So if there is one in suit and tie with a nervous looking staffer around, better not to use it ;)
True that, good point. cheers mate :)
"Mettbrötchen"!
Cook potatoes in the skin (Pellkartoffeln) and open a can of fried herrings. (Brathering)
You either like it or you hate it.
:)
Most food are "special interest". If they are bought by 1-2% of the customer, they are kept on the shelf, not to loose these customers. And if some food is popular regional, a supermarket chain will distribute it nationwide, cause people move around also. This makes this huge variety. Most people buy only a very small subset of this.

Your german is so good.
Cheers mate, very grateful.
MoaBogen is the best. 🙂 I can recommend some Maggi to go with the Mettbrötchen.
Haven’t tried Maggi with it, I’ll try it the next time, you have my word :D
The duck/goose liver pate is actually a recent addition to German mainstream. One only used to be able to find it in Delikatessen butcher shops and the like. It is mostly a French staple item, but French food has always been popular in Spain, so Pate is more mainstream there, too. When I say "recent" kids are going to frown at me, cause I mean "within the last 15-20 years, or so" 🤣.
Haha no worries, time flies so it can also be thought of as recent! Thanks for the insights Maren :)
@@ExpatCaptures yeah time flies like nobody's business, tell me about it! Insane ^^
The white square think of chocolate is sold in the US
Gotcha!
Liverpate can be spread on toast or crackers
I think the closest explanation for Suelze would be Head cheese , traditional made from the pigs head .
Haven’t heard of head cheese before 😅
Kopfkäse ?
@@grandmak. Ja, ich weiss, die Uebersetzung hoert sich lustig an.Wie ich es verstehe, nimmt man den ganzen Schweinskopf, kocht ihn, nimmt das Fleisch ab, gibt es in einen Schlauch, gibt Aspik dazu , laesst das ganze abkuehlen und fertig ist der Head cheese oder die Suelze.
@@sabrinaclarus6290 klingt, ehrlich gesagt. eher unlecker. Dabei mag ich Sülze eigentlich gern . Danke für die Info!
@@grandmak. Kein Problem .
we also have raw Turkeymeat as Mett you shoulg give it a go
Turkey meat? Never seen that before. Where can I get it haha
@@ExpatCaptures aldi or lidl should have it or a butcher
OMG, Butter auf dem Mettbrötchen 😱
Nein?
@@ExpatCaptures Nee. Das Fleisch hat ja schon genug Fett. Das gilt übrigens auch für das Fischbrötchen. Aber tolles Video. 😍
Ja, ich weiß es viel Fett gibt aber ich sehe die meisten Bäckereien machen das so, neh? Auf jeden Fall danke fürs Zuschauen :)
@@ExpatCaptures Maybe there are regional differences? The butchers here in Bavaria just simply season the meat and put it on a bun with some onions.
I really appreciate your calm voice and attitude. Had to subscribe 🙂
I’ll have to try it in Bavaria next time I’m there :)
War da nicht auch noch ein Milchreis 🤔
Den habe ich einfach gezeigt und nicht gekauft :)
Great video!
Thank you mate!
If you like Pom Bär you will LOVE "Pommels Original" ! But I´d recommend to explore organic food shops in Germany if you want to have a healthy diet. I was raised with the foods you have shown in this video. But I don´t buy any of that 40 years later anymore. I consider it all as junk food. Way too much sugar in almost all of them. You might want to add up the sugar you just ate for this video and compare it to the WHO recommendation (max. 30g per day) ;_)
Bahaha. Yeh I was definitely aware of how much sugar I consumed that day. Was hesitating on the last bites but wanted to do it for the video. Damn TH-cam :D
I missed the "Maggi" in the soupe😄
You can eat Sülze with fried potatoes and remoulade.
Sülze = brawn?
Awgg yummm
Bro im from srilanka i got my employment contract i havent german language and my job owner dont need german language can i get visa
Your employer can give you one.
I have peanut and nut allergies
and u got another follower 😎
Very nice to see... for me as a German. :-) btw: you liked the Matjes "nordic style". Try the real genuine (dutch) Matjes. They are 12 out of 10.
Ooh. Can you get them in Germany? Sounds good!
@@ExpatCaptures at fish-stores and in the north/west, north/east even at Aldi and Lidl. Try them without a roll... just with onions. :-)
Die Sülze ist soooo viel besser in einem Essigsud (wie im Wurstsalat) mit Zwiebeln und Bratkartoffeln
The pate you can have it on rice cakes plain crackers bread
Rice crackers! Good idea :) thank youuuuuu
they prepeeled and cooked potato in the jar
I don't know why you would get peeled potatoes in a jar and I am German.
Classic 😂
It's essentially a product made for old ladys who don't want to, or can make the effort to peel potatoes themselves anymore. Having all kinds of canned or jared food stored in the pantry or basement is also a common habit of the post war generation who grew up actually knowing food shortages.
@@geist41334 That makes a lot of sense, thank you for the explanation :)
@@geist41334 We have that habit too, but we draw the line at pre-peeled potatoes.
How about all those sausages they have in tall jars?
Also einige der Artikel hab ich wirklich noch nie getestet, obwohl ich aus Deutschland komme :D
Haha cool :) welche Artikel??
@@ExpatCaptures die Fleischwaren, die du zuerst ausprobiert hast , sind eher speziell. Also die isst nicht jeder :D ich glaube du hast es beim probieren auch gemerkt. Ist was für speziellen Geschmack :D
Die Süßwaren sind aber wirklich beliebt, die du ausgesucht hast (Schokolade geht immer)
Ach so! Ja Mettwurst ist richtig speziell, aber doch, ich hab mit vielen Leuten geredet, die Mettwurst regelmäßig essen.
@@ExpatCaptures stimmt es gibt auch viele die das sehr gern essen :)
I am always so sad when I see foreigners buy these bakery items from the supermarket, that are usually of lesser quality than what you get in a bakery. Also the preprepared meals and conserved meats. Homecooked is really so different and meats I would only buy at a good butcher. But then again these things exist and apparently people buy them, so this is also Germany,. Milka and Ritter are not the same as Cadbury though. Cadbury is not really known in Germany - I think.
I am also baffled at the potatoes in a glas. That's a head-scratcher. I have to admit I only buy at the organic stores, so my selection is limited it seems. This is all very surprising to me as a German. Very interesting. You are quite brave and adventurous. I am a Germany and I would probably only eat a third of what you tasted.
Thank you - yes I understand supermarket foods may be lesser in quality. And yes I always try to be open-minded as to what I try! Hope you enjoyed :)
How tall are you? sorry to ask?
Prefer not to disclose haha. Tall but not as tall as you think. ;)
@@ExpatCaptures more apartments to review please since I am be working in Berlin by the end of the year as an expat.
Of course! Stay tuned. I will most likely tour many more apartments in Berlin on this channel, both rented and for purchase, furnished and unfurnished.
Honestly neither me or my friends eat the meat stuff, I think that's something for the older generation. :)
Yeh none of my friends eat them too 😂
I think you've been sufficiently germanized, you've gained a bit of a German accent there! ;)
Gettin’ there!
Finaly someone who know how to cut a onion 😁👍 I saw things before... 😅
Credit goes to the sharp Asian knife I used :P
@@ExpatCaptures Yes i have some asian knifes too but i mean the technique 😁 i sharpen my knifes myself to about 18 - 20° with stones. I also only can work with sharp knifes. 😉

Any tips on learning German? Native English speaker (American), and I’ve heard German is the easiest language. I love visiting Berlin
Don’t stop :)
I don't think that German is easy to learn, İ'm a native German and happy that I don' t have to learn all the grammar, English is much easier to learn
Don't worry, many Germans speak their language incorrectly.
"easy" (learning any language is hard work) to get to a level, to get by.
Why am I not surprised that an american tries to label the german language as "easy"? If it is that easy you dont need any tips, go ahead buddy.
Are u from Germany? Sounds like
Australia!
Trüffel Leberpastete is a French Produce
Milka is austrian my friend....
Seems like it originates from Switzerland actually 🤓
@@ExpatCaptures The production place is pretty close to the Swiss border indeed. Nice video btw
Woooo thanks!
