![[Vinesauce] Vinny - Awful Pizza Review #1](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/zN-2YZiZCjo/mqdefault.jpg)
Johnny did Vinny so dirty in the thumbnail 💀
No, that's just Vinny when takes off the alien technology.
i dont think johnny knows that diabetes has nothing to do with being overweight...
@@hecticscone Snacks do doe.
@@DasAntiNaziBroetchen but he only ate a bit of each one tho
First time I’ve ever seen his face in a thumbnail or in general and was like “not what I expected but okay”
Vinny:
1. Gets diabetes
2. Eats chips for dinner
3. Puts ketchup on pasta
Hmm, suspicious.
Like a real Italian
He's undergoing Joelification
@@Leetgrainforced joelification and loving it
Boy dinner
4. Calls pasta gravy
For some reason, it feels so weird to hear Vinny's voice coming out of a human.
Whenever you feel like that it means the person’s look is a disguise
He’s a Duck 🦆
The voice is coming from Gnorts. He's just a really good ventriloquist.
@@farmzombie Brent Spiner in Independence Day type deal
what is this human you mention?
Thats just a meat puppet controlled by Gnorts. Dont let these videos fool you into thinking vinny isn't an alien.
“And then also that in French” describes most Canadian product packages
@@jextra1313at least in California, most packaging also has Spanish alongside English. So same feel.
@@jonny9128 that's how it is in utah, except at dollar tree for some reason where it's all french and the hispanic people coming in have no idea what anything says lol
*All. It's required by law at the federal level for domestic packaging.
@@jonny9128 that's every state. us packaging has spanish and french on it because we border mexico and canada
😂 everything needs french here
Vinny not liking Mazapan is a big sad moment for all Mexican fans
Marzipan is delicious
Gotta say I can't stand Marzipan lol. Never understand what the big deal is with it
@@KrypXernAs a Brit, marzipan is just fancy fondant to me. Equal in its utilization and equally gross.
Marzipan and mazapan are not the same mazapan is like powdered sugar and peanut powder
i like how this comment can mean mexican fans of vinny or just fans of mexicans in general
Johnny turned Vinny Vinesauce into Vinnocado Saucocado on the thumbnail huh
Damn, Vinny and Joel finally have something else in common!
Edit: for context, this video was originally titled "Vinny Gets Diabetes" for the first few hours after it was uploaded. Joel legitimately has diabetes.
Type I streamer vs. Type II streamer
Lmao
Oh nooooooooo lmao
The connection is getting clearer and clearer.
eating chips for dinner?
Just as a little fun fact, since 'Mazapanes' are notoriously easy to break and make a mess, it's usually treated as a little game to unwrap it without breaking it. So Vinny, in fact, had Mazapan related skill issues.
You could say Vinny had a... *Mazapandori Issue*
Where?
I can't believe we finally get to see Vumbo Vosh perform a mukbang for his TH-cam
As someone from Texas who grew up with it, Vinny being so confused by Mexican candy is very funny. Panditas and de la Rosa are so damn good
As a Tex-Mexican, it was very funny 😂
I'm in Texas but never seen it. I'll have to seek it out.
(I have had a mangonada, which was incredible and earth-shattering even though I could *tell* it was a low-tier mangonada.)
I'm from texas, grew up here. Never liked any mexican candies that didn't have cajeta. But all of the other treats and confectionaries are amazing and nostalgic. Anything fresh with chamoy, the baked goods. Man. One of the reasons I don't wanna leave.
You like De La Rosa? That was always a weird one to me.
@@TrueTrickster2016 marzipan is a classic, try it over ice cream or covered in chocolate. Kinda like halva.
‘errrn broo’
‘in Scotland and the rest of England’
‘Mars is just a Milky Way’
they’re coming, Vinny.
Thanks for trying the kitkats. They were spares from when I did a stream trying all the kitkat bags I grabbed from a Japanese supermarket we have in Seattle called Uwajimaya.
I think my favorite is the matcha latte, wheat biscuit with chocolate and strawberry.
I actually went to Uwajimaya in Seattle when I was there during the summer. And yeah, the Kit Kats are pretty good.
kinda wild (for no reason really) to see the Seattle Uwajimaya mentioned, I shop there all the time
25:34 the "placing objects on Gnorts after a cut" gag always makes me laugh
how did you see that 2 minutes after upload?
gnorts is that you?
I live inside Vinny's oven and the little rascal accidentally left it open. I watched him edit this video. @@moneypowertron
As a canadian myself I never actually understood what all-dressed was until I finally looked it up and realized it's literally just all the staple flavor seasonings put on at once
Yep! I love them personally, I'm kinda surprised they didn't really catch on when they got them in the states
Is it mirepoix?
... it's in the name D:
There’s a brand called Rap Snacks that make a Lil Baby branded chip that is supposed to be a combination of a bunch of different chip flavors, is that just the same as all-dressed? It’s available in the states
I've gifted it to some American friends who described it as a vinegary BBQ flavor.
Its weird to see all these snacks that I thought were just normal as 'Canadian' snacks lol.
No right? I thought these shits were universal but I guess not
I mean yeah no shit it's your culture so you think it's normal
I think the Caramilk bar was the oddest for me. It's such a generic, cheap bar, I figured it was everywhere.
When you see shit made by frito-lay and nestle you just kind of assume it's global eh?
Dill pickle chips are very common in the US and Crunch bar (but he said that one in the video). I think Mars bar is also in the US alongside Milky Way. Everything else though we don’t have here. Idk about any other countries if they have those things
Watching Americans experience a Crunchie bar for the first time is always a joy. One of our finest confectionery items.
I like the violet crumble from Australia too, but I have fond memories of the Crunchie bar in the Bahamas
Crunchie is what I always pick up at Irish shops in NYC
The way Vinny says "Irn Bru" hurts my Scottish soul.
The reason some folks think that American chocolate, specifically Hershey's, tastes like vomit is because they use milk with butyric acid. It helps it taste slightly tangy for those who enjoy it, but it's clearly not for everyone.
All milk has butyric acid, but yes they do use more butyric acid.
butyric acid is a prime component of vomit and was initially put in because it extended the shelf life of chocolate in the days before better methods existed but they kept it in because americans got used to it, and that's why hershey sucks ass
Smooth brained American saw 'butyric acid' and thought 'butyr? I LOVE butyr!' and poured tons of it into the large vats in the factory 😢
@@JacobKinsley god's funniest german right here
it burns my throat they use so much :(
as a canadian i thought "oh he's just eating normal snacks?" looking at the thumbnail. had no idea these are specifically canadian.
Having the same reaction. They don't have All Dressed, Hawkin's Cheezies or Hickory Sticks? How are our countries considered neighbours?
@@Schattenkirk We can get all dressed but it's usually some kind of special, limited time thing. It's a lot easier to get these the closer you are to the border.
@@Schattenkirk ikr? i wonder if they ever got the doritos ketchup chips. i quite like them, but have a hard time finding them. i also wonder if the dorito dinamita chips were ever released as a non-limited-time thing elsewhere. here, they used to be limited time, but not anymore.
@@botchboy4237 Ahh, makes sense. Getting further in, I am shocked there's no Caramilk, Crunch or Crunchie bars there either! I can't imagine Halloween chocolate hauls without them.
Same! The caramilk and mars bars not being instantly recognizable is weird for me!
I've never been more scared of a title. Never do that again, vinny.
me but when he licked the spoon gunk.
Very happy that the Mexican snacks included tamarind just so we could see Vinny's reaction to the fact that it's literally just some goop on a plastic-covered spoon, lol. I've never had it myself, but it's a classic Mexican treat made from the tamarind fruit and a couple other ingredients (usually just sugar, but sometimes also chili powder and/or mango) and it really is sold exactly like that. There are variations like the Pulparindo bar that have a more typical candy-like presentation, but you can also literally just buy a bag of goop-covered spoons which is just a really funny visual
I remember growing up in Baltimore and seeing those at every bodega. I asked my mom about it once and as soon as she told me they're spicy I never asked again. So to this day I've never had one. I assumed it was sugary goop with chili peppers.
Also made me laugh when Vinny thought it was something a viewer made to "poison" him lol.
There's a big inside joke here in Mexico that it's almost impossible to open a "Mazapán" (De la Rosa) without breaking it,
so seeing Vinny immediately crushing it and saying "Ew" was just too funny. Big tip, if you wanna eat it solid you can freeze it and that would help a lot
Also, fat Vinny is something I wish i didn't see 💀
Really people freeze them? All my life I've treated it as a sort of game where I try to get as least amount of the Mazapan to break while I open it, sounds weird as I actually enjoy the powdery texture of the regular ones, but I'll try it next time I buy a pack!
Ill eat a piece, then twist the wrapper around the rest so it compacts together into a ball and then eat it
Huh, I never thought about freezing them, gotta try that next time!
Mexican here. Vinny Getting the real De La Rosa experience with having that candy falling apart and making a mess. 😅
Totally
"made from girders"
Irn Bru really strives for authenticity with its rust flavor.
Whoever sent the Mazapanes should've added a note stating that they must be handled with care in order for them to not crumble.
There's something oddly therapeutic in watching a middle aged man try candies on camera next to his alien son
on the topic of the american chocolate conspiracy, Ive always lived in the US and thought the chocolate was fine, but last year I had a chocolate pie from Italy, and I get why everyone hates our chocolate now. It wasn't even a fancy pie from a bakery, it was literally a pre-packaged pie from some random airport in Sardinia. It was unbelievably good.
i tried some Meiji chocolate bars from Japan and they tasted a lot less acidic(?) than Hershey's (not sure if that's the right way to describe it)
usually for me, midway through a Hershey bar, i want to stop eating and save the rest for later... but with Meiji, I will gladly devour the whole thing in one sitting.
the difference is night and day, even for the most basic bar of chocolate, and i'm so sad that i can't just leisurely stroll into walmart to grab a Meiji.
American chocolate is basically whichever megacorp has the highest share price determines what kind of chocolate the average citizen wants
It's very surreal seeing someone react to something I've found normal all my life
The same goes the other way around
0:25 dinner
8:00 drink
10:28 dessert
Alien sits on the couch and tries Canadian delicacies as his human friend silently listens and stares off into the void.
Hes as human as they come though
And his grey skin is very fancy
“It’s not an intense flavo-“
Fans:HE LIKES IT
I'm so happy that Vinny likes all-dressed chips. As a Canadian, they are my fav and they are all I buy.
I live in NY and I will actually waste money on them every so often at one of those international food stores. They are always a little bit stale, but still worth it to me
Of all the videos I can catch a minute after upload… it’s this one.
Pretty cool.
Not even remotely fun fact: that Hostess brand is actually a different Hostess than you're thinking of. They used to be the biggest producer of potato chips in Canada until they were bought out by Lays. The only product left that's still branded as Hostess are Hickory Sticks - nothing else still references their existence.
I remember their chips in the 80s with the cool little gremlin characters on the packaging :(
Vinny you say no more but those skinny arms say we need to give you *more*
It’s like that feast section in Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story
We need to make him look the way he does in the thumbnail. It's his ultimate streamer form.
Grandmothers unite
babushka moment
As long as you don't drink ginger ale thinking it's a healthy option, you're golden.
It's for my tum tum when I'm sick. I know it doesn't have enough ginger to actually help but it was always a comfort growing up.
Currently sick. Taking tiny sips of gingerale, shitting my brains out and watching random food videos is all I’ve done for the past 3 days.
As a Canadian, it's wild to hear that in an age of globalization we still have chocolate bars that don't get sold in the U.S.
Probably because of the fact one food manufacturer holds a monopoly on what snacks get to go right at eye level on store shelves, and they aren't even that good
Remember when the title was "Vinny gets diabetes" or something?
diabiti pls
Vinny's reaction to mexican dulces was hilarious haha
He must not be a fan of tamarind lol
The next logical evolution of his food reviews is to eat trash so he can never do it again. Somebody should send him Gansito.
We need to send actual spicy Mexican candy n snacks (don't)
He already did the Swedish snacks review tho
No! Gansito my beloved ❤
ohh that thing sucks, I don't get how many children like that garbage, it's similar to nestlé's "trencito" both fucking terrible and too sugary.
@flashpone7910 What made it trash? The hot ass reaper sauce?
Vinny just declared war to the whole mexican community by disliking the mazapan.
Whats the difference between mazapan and marzipan
A further correlation between the theory of Vinny being an alternate version of Joel and vice versa.
Someone should’ve warned him about the Mazapan. Two-thirds of the candy is the unwrapping game.
the pharaohs curse
How could someone send him Canadian candies and not include Smarties?
Ehhh those are a low tier chocolate anyway
Raisin chocolate
@@RedNaylso smarties in your country are chocolates? Where I live, smarties are just smaller rockets.
@@liamisresponsible yeah smarties are chocolate. Rockets here are what smarties are for you.
You ain't missing out though smarties aren't anything special.
11:48 Hey Vin, Doña Pepa is Peruvian! I’m the lad who gave it to you at TooManyGames. Glad you enjoyed!
Ver a Vinny comiendo Doña Pepa fue lo más random que he visto esta semana
@@BenProwerte juro que mi cerebro no entendía que estaba pasando hasta que me acordé que yo se la di jajaja. Debí haberle puesto una nota que decía que venía de Perú :(
YOU'RE LEGENDARY FOR THIS!!! as a fellow peruvian i got so hyped when i saw doña pepa... i would love to see him drink inka cola if he ever did a soda stream tbh like peruvian snacks are too good
Every other Canadian product he picked up I was surprised to find out are Canadian things, I thought everyone had fuzzy peaches and coffee crisps
its so easy to forget they dont exist in the states or anywhere else
@@rg3892A lot of Canadian stuff (like Coffee Crisp) is available at specialty stores and the like. The places you'd also find regional American specialties like Moxie
I've been watching Vinny long enough to see him become a mukbang streamer
Instant Canadian reaction is why did they send the worst ketchup chips? Still wonderful to see Vinny try my homeland.
Agreed, Lay's Ketchup suck
@@StereoTyp0Lays is just a crap chip brand in general. I honestly don't know why they're still relevant at all.
Vinny not liking Mazapan was a sad moment for the Mexican Vinesauce community
Irn Bru is pronounced "Iron Brew" for reasons beyond my ken
Also, I think that spoon thing was supposed to have a Mexican tamarind candy on it. I've only had it once and I guess you're supposed to just like lick it and it lasts forever, but it wasn't really my thing either
Ah, a variation of the Thks fr th Mmrs title method.
Because the company is called Barr and the old joke is it was made from rusted iron girders (bars), thus the orange hue. Not so much a joke I guess, rather its deliberate namesake. It does have trace levels of iron, but obviously not from boiling down demolished buildings' beams. As for the spelling, it's just a Scottish variation on Iron Brew.
Source: Born Scotsman with many years living in Edinburgh.
Hi Vinny, it’s Scottish Vinny writing from London. Irn-Bru is pronounced “Iron Brew”. But you weren’t to know that. From at least the 80s the marketing slogan was “made in Scotland from girders”, presumably attempting a tough Glasgow workers’ aesthetic. I grew up in Glasgow, so here are some unusual things - “soda” is often called “ginger” for some reason, usually among the less economically fortunate. It refers to any carbonated soft drink. You could take empty glass ginger bottles back to the shop and they’d give you money. Incidentally, I have searched relentlessly for anyone who can tell me what the hell Irn-Bru is supposed to be. Nobody knows.
Seeing Vinny's face is like watching a shooting star
Can't wait for vinny to try the deep fried mars bar, a true scottish cuisine.
With a deep fried pizza to start, just be sure to eat it before cooling down.
I wanna see the alien eat staple NYC foods, like glizzies and pizza, while Gnorts teaches everyone about the history of said foods.
As a mexican, vinny being confused by mexican candy jas given me the heartiest laugh ive had in a while lol
When he said “it has..a rubber band”
Oh no, Vinny fused with that guy to become VINNOCAD-
😱
as someone who does actually like hershey and nestle, i do absolutely understand where people get the "vomit" taste from in american chocolate. its so horrendously sweet and almost acidic, and im pretty sure thats where that comes from.
even if i do like our chocolate though, stuff overseas really is better.
There have been a lot of studies highlighting chocolate preference with associations to childhood. Essentially, whatever you grew up having embeds itself as your preference into adulthood. Some people have more open-minded tastes than others, but I can honestly say most of my favourites do stem from when I was a kid. Anecdotal, sure, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a strong link between choco and childhood.
The counter would be that many of my favourites such as Ritter Sport, Ferrero Rocher along with Fortnum and Mason were chocolates I never had as a child, due to their being targeted at adults with their price tags. At the end of the day, the studies may explain preferences for mass-produced brands, but actual chocolatiers (especially small-scale, local shops) will always be on another level for obvious logistical reasons.
Fun fact: Britain is the only country that calls Lays, Walkers
I've been dieting recently and looking at all these snacks is giving me cravings.
Same I could absolutely eat all of that
Even if you do get tempted and eat snacks just acknowledge that happened and get right back on that spinach curry diet fellow sigma male
Well, there goes my future plans of sending you some exquisite Norwegian snacks and items.
As someone who grew up in New York, hearing Vinny say 'cheese doodles' made me so happy lol
Here in sweden we got cheese doodles aswell
Finally, Italian Joel eats dinner and other assorted foods for our amusement
16:55 i know those are big rockets but I like to think that Vinny is actually 3 feets tall.
The mazapán broke😨? Skill issue Binyot!
Oh no he didnt know how to handle the thing he has never seen before!
also also, how he doesn't use the flap to tear open the bars... pure chaotic evil.
Oversensitive
I love how vinny ate ketchup and pickle chips one after another. It orc massages the funny bone
I’m happy how much he enjoyed the Canadian stuff. Crunchie is prob my favourite bar
5:50 Ah yes, Scotland within the country of England-as-a-whole. Gotta love Vinny geography lmao
It hurts
To be fair, a lot of Europeans have this bizarre and persistent belief that the U.S. has 52 states for some reason. It's 50, and it's been 50 since 1959.
I thought it was 51
Overanalyze everything people say to never get any friends!
Why do I like the Vinny trying food videos so much?
Glad Vinny's been more comfortable showing his face on camera lately, he's v fun to watch
I'm ngl, the spoon looked sketchy af lol
I find it funny how Vinny calls it "Urn Bru"
As far as I know about Cheezies, they still use the exact same 1950s machinery to make them. So the packaging is kinda fitting. They're also the only thing the company makes.
I’m new to Vinny, and that was the first picture of Vinny I ever saw and thought it was actually his face
In Canadian schools, learning French is mandatory so we can properly read/pronounce the French names of food products at the grocery store. Nothing else.
Never had a french class before. Guess Saskatchewan is a bit different from the rest of the country in that sense.
@@RedNayl I'm from Ontario and we have an ass-load of Francophones due to our close proximity to Quebec so that is standard.
No one will ever look at you the way Vinny looks at the little Space Raider fellas.
so fun fact about american chocolate tasting like vomit: this is because you guys generally dont get to have your chocolate factories and dairy farms within transport distance of each other. the milk used in american chocolate is more often than not powdered milk, whereas most other places its typically fresh. theres a bitter agent in the powdered milk that genuinely does taste vaguely of vomit and you dont get that in fresh milk, and for some people that vomit-taste is overpowering
HOWEVER, some american factories do get to have a dairy farm nearby enough to use fresh milk. those factories, quite often, add the bitter agent from the powdered milk in separately and deliberately, bc many americans feel it doesnt taste like chocolate without it. so a local artisinal chocolate probably would have that fresh milk chocolate taste, bc they dont have the funds to add the yucky vomit chemical in there like the big corporations do
If thats true thats so bizarre lol
I never understood what people's issues is with American chocolate. So it tastes a little weird, so what? Europeans make fun of Americans so much for all the sugar we eat, but the moment our chocolate isn't as sweet it's an issue lmao. Also Europeans be out there eating shit like surstromming and haggis regularly, they can't talk lol.
@@flashpone7910 Idk man Belgian chocolate is actually next level, even compared to our Canadian chocolate. Best chocolate I've ever had, can't even describe it, and its way richer and sweeter than most of the stuff you find here. I had aunts that lived in Germany that brought some over once and it was crazy the difference
@@Smellbagmcgee I've only been there once and didn't try the chocolate, now I'm curious lol. I dated an American for a while and it never came up, gonna go ask her now
I tasted some american chocolate and it tasted like... Chocolate not vomit
you heard him guys no more food so make sure to send him even more food now!
I love these facecam videos. Always a ton of fun to see Vinny eat weird snacks lol
0:20 i am telling you with peace and love, stop sending snacks
Vinny pronouncing Irn Bru as "Urn Bru" is very charming.
For those that don't know, it's supposed to be pronounced "iron"
Vinny calling it "Urn Bru" is fully killing me off
How would he know how to say it if he doesnt know how to say it and that he would have no reason to think he was saying it wrong
It makes me happy that he enjoyed the caramilk bar that much :) It's one of my favorites
Coffee Crisp and Canadian Oh Henry bars (they're totally different) are great. Ketchup chips are surprisingly decent too. I live in the UK but always stock up on those and Skor bars at Christmas before flying back from visiting family in Vancouver.
Irn Bru (Iron Brew, not ehr hern) is much better ice cold, so I hope that bottle was in the fridge. People here often have soft drinks at near- room temperature due to the coolers in supermarkets typically being open without closed doors which is bollocks, but any true Scotsman knows it's best chilled. We'll drink it at any temperature though.
Also, Cheezies are essentially Cheetos but with real cheddar apparently. You notice more of a difference after eating a handful or two, particularly the level of cheese dusting they have. They have a much sharper taste than Cheetos.
Finally, to Schweppes: BRING BACK RASPBERRY GINGER ALE. DO IT NOW.
My inner Hispanic weeped when he said no to De La Rosa 😔
Fuck yeah Space Raiders. When I was a kid they only cost 5p. Worth every penny. Glad you like 'em, I fucking love them.
i agree with vin. the french language is essentially a darksouls boss
17:57
I'm so happy to know Vinny doesn't know how to open a Mazapan, also, surprised to see him get hot f4om a fuckin' Pulparindo, that's the mildest shit ever
Real mexican here. I hope you like them candies. Idk what candies they are. I just hope you like em weird. Like real weird.
Honestly, as long as you like spicy, sweet candy you’ll like a lot of Mexican candies
Maybe tamarind?
I see a lot of that here in the South, like tangy Tamarind mixed with salt and sugar
my friend used to bulk order mexican and korean candies and god damn those those places know how to make treats
26:33 "Irn-Bru got me through" would make for a really good slogan. They should use that.
I would gladly accept any snacks that people want to send to Vinny.
16:40 'now there are 2 of them?!'
someone needs to send Vinny Gansitos, tamarind jarritos, and Sangria Senorial
Did you miss the part where he was begging people to stop sending him food items?
"Scotland, or England as a whole" 💀
As a canadian I'm scared of American chips if vinny says ours aren't intense in flavor. ketchup kills me
My best guess is they weren't particularly fresh. All dressed especially is intense, but we've all had a not-so-fresh bag where its weak sauce
Over 75% of our corn snacks are spicy
WHITE!
They’re not so bad. You just gotta make sure not to eat too many at once.
God damn, Space Raiders were like a commodity when I was at school. What a throwback.
Haha! That "I put ketchup on my pasta, I'm a real italian" unlocked a memory for me. I had a friend who worked with an Italian and he smacked my friend when he put ketchup on his pasta.
Your friend deserved it. That would be disgustingly sweet
What are you supposed to put on dry noodles? Butter?
@@EsperPinion Many things. Pasta sause, butter and parmesan, or some olive oil to name a few.
@@AndrewJohnson-ny5nx what if I theoretically use tomato sauce and vinegar
The impression I've formed over time is that Italians tend to be too purist over food. Admittedly, I wouldn't put tomato ketchup on pasta but any deviation is treated like a crime.
“England as a whole” what the hell vinny, Scotland isn’t in England
english major moment
0:53 "Tastes like ketchup."
Was a pickle dipped in first? Or alternatively, eat a dill and ketchup chip at the same time to reenact the experience.
XL Vinny was not something I needed to know was possible
