@@chobitsai1 lol yeah those were my childhood (white rabbit candy and shrimp chips) then most of the snacks here. The only ones I have had are what Jenn gave to Jessica (lychee jelly and yan yan).
Danish cookies are an Island/Caribbean thing too. My mom loves the cookies but we also have had those tins (with sewing inside) for over 40yrs. Another thing to show how closely related we all are!
Oh man that tamarind candy, so nostalgic. I remember one of my uncles always had them in his car so us kids would be so excited to go on a drive with him because we would get a piece lol
I was today's years old when I learned why I enjoy minis... Never really thought about it because I never really get minis, but when I did... They really did hit diff. 😂🤙🤙🤙🤔
I think the danish cookies container is a thing for every POC household. My family is from Mexico so they also reuse everything from the Daisy sour cream container to put leftover soup in lol
@2:35 the cookies are from I-Mei! It's a Taiwanese brand :DDDD @11:24 is unagi flavoured fried-corn chips made by this Japanese brand called Calbee @12:26 Green Tea Cake from Taiwan!!!! But it's mostly popular for the uncles and aunties now, somehow these are more accessible in North America!
PLEASE MAKE A BUBBLE TEA VERSION OF THIS!!! Or just recommend/try some of your favourite flavour/favourite brand, or try weird looking/new flavour of bubble tea. That would be great!!!!
Yess to the tamarind candy [south east asian represent lol] currently got some in our pantry. And the "hot kid ball cake cookies" I think are starch cookies [cornstarch or other starch]. Yes, its a unique flavour, but oh so addicting [plus the 'melting' texture, cuz it's starch flour]. I feel the same with the mini m&m's, its the crunch, I guess.
Loved this video! Hope you doing a second one with the rest of the Wong fu team! My favorite snacks as a Filipino kid were the cheesy Clover chips, chocolate Pillows, & Boy Bawang Cornick Garlic flavor
Growing up on the East coast in the middle of nowhere...I sadly don’t recognize most of these snacks. But I do remember being a few years old and going to an Asian grocery store closer to where we moved from (store was in a city but we moved from nowhere to nowhere lol) and the shop owners would, with my parents permission, give me snacks like yan yan. Thinking of that brings back fond memories.
Aww I remember eating the Mini M&M’s! We used to use the empty plastic container (after finishing them of course) and pretend to play tennis lol. So what we’d do was put the cap on the container, then as we swing the container we’d squeeze the container, so hard that the lid would pop open and it would make a noise (think of the noise like when you open a bottle of wine) using that popping noise, we’d emulate a tennis racket hitting a tennis ball lol.
Omg vitasoy was the drink to have!!! It was always in my lunchbox and I actually haven’t drank it since like elementary school!!! NOW I NEED TO RUN OUT AND GET SOME
holy moly i thought the Danisa cookies (and the sewing kit inside the box) was only a Vietnamese thing, i've never thought it was so common in many Asian countries, mind blowing lol
I recently got some of those "hot kid ball cake cookies" from Daiso and I remember having these as a kid growing up, they just melt right into yo mouth and legit taste like cake.
Yes for the butter cookie container!!! That's a staple in the black household as well. The first time I actually ate the cookie I was PIIIISSSED. I'd prolly like em now as an adult 😂
Jen , the French cookie is TAIWANESE brand： I-Mei Foods Co .Having been established for more than 70 years, the company has been recognized as one of the biggest food companies in Taiwan, and has also exported its products outside its domestic market. My all time
I dont know about other countries, at least in Argentina, Denise Butter cookies was the typical gift for engagement parties or weddings like.. that was the 喜餅～ ( for Asians in Argentina, well at least taiwanese)
the "hot kid ball cake cookie"---haahah, i never heard it called that. in Hawaii, we call is Kimi Balls or Honey Balls. A friend of mine called it "whale eyes"--never heard that one before. But anyway, this was def one of my favorites was as a child, too! This and the Tomoe Ame. :D
OMG I SO WANT THEM TO DO IT AGAIN WHEN THEY CAN GET BAK TO THE OFFICE AND ALS TELL THEM the Chinese pronounciagion of all of those LOL ❤️❤️❤️ also love the taiwanese representation snacks!!!!
Only snacks I didn't know were the tamarind candy, green tea cake, and the rice candy. Wasn't a fan of the rice paper, so I always ripped it off the white rabbit candy. Haha, our parents and grandparents generations were the ultimate recyclers. Who else also has a bunch of old mooncake tins filled with random things, not just the danish cookie tin?
My kids loves Pocky! I always find the different ones. They discontinued the Brazilian Orange because it was seasonal☹. We found Chocolate Mint this spring. Japan had Mango and Peach flavor ones. Prefer the Mangp.
@@janicebolosan119 ahhh I should try that. I usually just get the regular chocolate one. Man, now I want to try the orange one but you said it was discontinued. I haven't been to the Asian market in awhile though because of covid
As a kid i never got try those danish cookies because they where always filled with something else, when i got my first check they where one of the first things i bought, that and a 3 flavor popcorn container. Adulting at its best, i know
My friend had those “hot kid ball cake” snack thingys as her screen name for something? However, in Hawaii, we called it “Kimi Balls?” I think? Not too sure.
We all know kids that had Yan Yan’s and would eat them by dipping a stick into the chocolate (what Jen gave us as an example) and instead of eating the stick, they’d put the stick in their mouth and then suck up the chocolate, leaving the stick by itself lol.
So is it very asian to reuse the tin as a container for sewing kit? Halfway thru the clip, still waiting for hello panda, caramel corn and calbee shrimp flavoured cracker

I'm surprised white rabbit candy isn't on this cause that was MY LYFFEEE
I know , i was like how do you forget that that's was really popular if you was in the 90st or 2000 year :O
@@charizard13111989 dont forget shrimp crackers. nom nom
@@chobitsai1 lol yeah those were my childhood (white rabbit candy and shrimp chips) then most of the snacks here. The only ones I have had are what Jenn gave to Jessica (lychee jelly and yan yan).
Which does make sense since she's Vietnamese and I am too ┐(´ー｀)┌
💜
Danish cookies are an Island/Caribbean thing too. My mom loves the cookies but we also have had those tins (with sewing inside) for over 40yrs.

wes' snacks are really some old time classic snacks ive had when i was a baby
Oh man that tamarind candy, so nostalgic. I remember one of my uncles always had them in his car so us kids would be so excited to go on a drive with him because we would get a piece lol
We all know that the Wongfu team is the real snacc 😤
I LOVED those French cookies when I was a kid. I remember it came in a tin box and my parents would reuse the box for storing everything.
ive got to agree on the min m&ms, they definitely hit different
I was today's years old when I learned why I enjoy minis... Never really thought about it because I never really get minis, but when I did... They really did hit diff. 😂🤙🤙🤙🤔

Yesssss Jen, the snacks you picked were staple Viet kid snacks. Such a throwback
Lol but did she just gave her only one candy and only ine jello thing?
honey balls are so good!!! Its like dry but melts and its sweet. opening the tin cans was so difficult but so nostalgic ugh
@2:35 the cookies are from I-Mei! It's a Taiwanese brand :DDDD
@11:24 is unagi flavoured fried-corn chips made by this Japanese brand called Calbee
@12:26 Green Tea Cake from Taiwan!!!! But it's mostly popular for the uncles and aunties now, somehow these are more accessible in North America!
Wow, rice candy is still around. I am 69 and they were one of my favorite snacks.
PLEASE MAKE A BUBBLE TEA VERSION OF THIS!!!
Or just recommend/try some of your favourite flavour/favourite brand, or try weird looking/new flavour of bubble tea. That would be great!!!!
Upvote this pleaseee let em spread
Would love to see more snack breaks!
10:06 “I just had the container for the sewing kit🤣” yes🤣my family too
The Bonton Rice candy (it's millet jelly). Back in the day, they use have an actual mini toy!

I agree about the mini m&m's. The ratio is more even and the shell is thinner lol
As Hispanics my family always used those cookie tins for sewing supplies as well.

That feel when you remember a butter cookie tin always being around the house but don't remember ever having any.

Brings back memories, dried cuttlefish and ball cake. My favorite is Calbee shrimp chips.
Omg vitasoy was the drink to have!!! It was always in my lunchbox and I actually haven’t drank it since like elementary school!!! NOW I NEED TO RUN OUT AND GET SOME
My mom had the cuddlefish with beer all the time:)
Omg yess on the Mini M&Ms!! I always say that they are the BEST M&Ms!
holy moly i thought the Danisa cookies (and the sewing kit inside the box) was only a Vietnamese thing, i've never thought it was so common in many Asian countries, mind blowing lol
now that I've gone through the comments, a lot of countries in other parts of the world have been doing it as well, it's really nice to know that
YYYOOOOO Them snacks brought me back especially that tamarind candy
I recently got some of those "hot kid ball cake cookies" from Daiso and I remember having these as a kid growing up, they just melt right into yo mouth and legit taste like cake.
ah... the legendary sewing kit container
The dried cuttle fish is great! I didn't know the Danish cookies was an asian gift thing.....
Yas someone who gets it! Mini M&Ms are the best😋 They sell them in the shareable ziplock bags now, Michelle
omg real? brb going to the nearest convenient stores to get a million more cavities
michelle has all the same fav snacks as me 😆
I use my old M&M minis containers to store quarters to pay for the parking meter 😂.
I'm Iraqi-Canadian and my mother ALSO put the sewing supplies in the Danish cookie tin! I guess ALL the Asians are in on it?
The 'wang wang' rice crackers are classssic 👌🐶
Omg have that exact same packaged HotKid Ball Cake Cookies!!!
Yes for the butter cookie container!!! That's a staple in the black household as well. The first time I actually ate the cookie I was PIIIISSSED. I'd prolly like em now as an adult 😂
I was also a mini m&m's kid despite being Asian American lol
who says you can only like asian snacks if you're asian american? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ mini m&ms ftw heh
Jen , the French cookie is TAIWANESE brand： I-Mei Foods Co .Having been established for more than 70 years, the company has been recognized as one of the biggest food companies in Taiwan, and has also exported its products outside its domestic market. My all time
Relate 💯 especially with Danish cookies hahaha Next time try Filipino childhood snacks too 😊
YESSSS I agree mini m&m over regular size
I dont know about other countries, at least in Argentina, Denise Butter cookies was the typical gift for engagement parties or weddings like.. that was the 喜餅～ ( for Asians in Argentina, well at least taiwanese)
Great video today keep it up your doing amazing job
OMG PRETZ WAS DA BOMB DOT COM!!!! All these snacks are so nostalgic ahhhhhhh
the "hot kid ball cake cookie"---haahah, i never heard it called that. in Hawaii, we call is Kimi Balls or Honey Balls. A friend of mine called it "whale eyes"--never heard that one before. But anyway, this was def one of my favorites was as a child, too! This and the Tomoe Ame. :D
Im surprised that fruit gummy rings didn't make the cut! There are so many flavors to choose from!
Those Danish cookies were indeed an all household staple 💯 🤣
OMG I SO WANT THEM TO DO IT AGAIN WHEN THEY CAN GET BAK TO THE OFFICE AND ALS TELL THEM the Chinese pronounciagion of all of those LOL ❤️❤️❤️ also love the taiwanese representation snacks!!!!
The grill- a-corn calbee chips are the besssssssssst. I like the spicy ones
Only snacks I didn't know were the tamarind candy, green tea cake, and the rice candy. Wasn't a fan of the rice paper, so I always ripped it off the white rabbit candy. Haha, our parents and grandparents generations were the ultimate recyclers. Who else also has a bunch of old mooncake tins filled with random things, not just the danish cookie tin?
the m&m container was a good storage for quarters
omg how crazy. the snacks mentioned are what we eat here in Singapore. soooo interesting hahaha :)
Those prawn chips/crackers and all those preserved plums and ginger
rice crackers, white rabbit, yan yan, hello panda and pocky were elite items
for all my south asians -- parle-g!
The parle-g kid is engrained in my memory. Also I like your profile pic!
Yooooo the tamarind candy. 😭😭😭 #childhood #feels.
Anyone else remember those tubes of Fruitips candies?? Or the tubes of Gummy Choco??
Yes! I would pick up a tube of each!
Same snacks I had as a kid! My parents would use the cookie tin for sewing supplies! Wasn't a fan of Yan Yan It's called "jeweled cookies"
I'm honestly not a fan of yan yan either. To me, it was the discount pocky and all I wanted was pocky.
My kids loves Pocky! I always find the different ones. They discontinued the Brazilian Orange because it was seasonal☹. We found Chocolate Mint this spring. Japan had Mango and Peach flavor ones. Prefer the Mangp.
@@janicebolosan119 ahhh I should try that. I usually just get the regular chocolate one. Man, now I want to try the orange one but you said it was discontinued. I haven't been to the Asian market in awhile though because of covid
@@despicablepenguin I like the savory ones more. grilled Corn, original and roasted is my faves
@@janicebolosan119 yeah I love savory stuff but not in my pocky 😅
I was eating the exact rice cracker when she pulled it out
yanyanyanyanyanyan
i looove the mini m&ms yessss 🔥🔥
Iced Gem Biscuits 花占饼干
bruh I thought my family was the only one with those danish cookies. And we kept the container as well lmfaoo
Yan yan!!!
I’m Japanese but I relate to most of those snacks🥺🥺
with the close up on wes，i now realize how old he looks
As a kid i never got try those danish cookies because they where always filled with something else, when i got my first check they where one of the first things i bought, that and a 3 flavor popcorn container. Adulting at its best, i know
Jenn!!
Wow amazing 😮
Pocky and those chocolate-filled koala-shaped snacks deserve an honorable mention here in the comments 🇹🇼 ❤️
My friend had those “hot kid ball cake” snack thingys as her screen name for something? However, in Hawaii, we called it “Kimi Balls?” I think? Not too sure.
Curious to know your ratings for its okay to not be okay
I personally grew up eating rice crackers with the two snowmen on the packaging, anyone else?
wait...all these ppl never put jelly in the freezer? it the best!
i think i had all those snacks.....my best childhood snacks...too many to list...lol
when i see preview picture in IG i see Amira (อมิร่า) the candy jessica holding. (6:05) i thought how it got there!? lol
旺仔小馒头is the best
We all know kids that had Yan Yan’s and would eat them by dipping a stick into the chocolate (what Jen gave us as an example) and instead of eating the stick, they’d put the stick in their mouth and then suck up the chocolate, leaving the stick by itself lol.
The french cookie is better in coffee flavor tho😭
Does Wes have an earpod in one ear and an airpod in the other ear?
Wongfu :)
I had haw flakes
Who’s the new girl
👉🏻 Unagi
aw wes looks so tired :( get some rest pls
So is it very asian to reuse the tin as a container for sewing kit?
Halfway thru the clip, still waiting for hello panda, caramel corn and calbee shrimp flavoured cracker
i have to disagree with the mini m&ms
the ratio is not to my liking lmao
i am hungry papa
No white rabbit sweets or koala bear cookies?! This video is invalid
