As an American, I’ve never had a thanksgiving sandwich 😂
I just don’t bother with the bread anymore. My preference is just a bag of cold leftover turkey as the protein and some other cold side dish/veggie for a quick meal.
came here to comment this, what the fuck is a thanksgiving sandwich lmao
@@milkman3873 It’s not a formal custom. It’s just part of what can happen with leftover turkey after Thanksgiving. I wish they had served proper roast turkey instead, but it’s not like I’ve never made a sandwich with leftover turkey (and mustard). But to substitute this leftover meal for actual fresh roasted turkey? That’s not the genuine experience.
sandwiches for thanksgiving, wtf? this ain’t no tradition
@@starhooligan8386 its for the day after thanksgiving
Wow…it feels so weird to watch the ‘new’ highschoolers after finishing the series of the highschoolers go to Korea
For real tho 😂🤣😂🤣
Passing the torch
at least there's 2 that were there in the last series 😭
Frrrrrr
@@TRAYDA23 nice to see Malachi and Henri again
"The English don't do flavor, do they?" cracked me up.
Repent and trust in Jesus. We all deserve Hell for our sins, such as lying lusting coveting and more. We can't save ourselves, but Jesus can save us. He died on the cross to save us for our sins and rose from the grave defeating death and Hell. You must put your faith in him only. He is the only way to Heaven. Repent and trust in Jesus.
Romans 6:23
John 3:16
@@christianweatherbroadcasti3491 ?????
I must’ve missed that?! 😅 Where in the video was it?
@@andrewclark7559 At about 2:18, they were eating the sandwich.
True tho, innit?
The Headmaster seems like such a great guy, these kids are lucky to have him!
Lord Smith*
“The English don’t do flavor, do they?”
Oh my god, give this kid a hug 😂 he is adorable!
I laughed so hard at that line as it is soooo true!!!
That was like the best part for me lmao at least he was honest 😂😂
@@sneer0101 It is absolutely true, it has even carried over into the way some European Americans cook their food. here in America.
@@sneer0101 No it isn't. My grandparents were English, straight from England. My grandmother was absolutely terrible at cooking. Boiled everything. No salt. No butter. It was inedible. All she could do well was tea. As in the drink.
I thought they were pretty great
How could you fail to give them the store-bought canned cranberry sauce. I would have loved to see them react to the sauce sliding out and retaining the shape of the can.
That's the cranberry sauce that my family used when growing up and we loved it, delicious flavor. I would eat it by itself, not on anything but if you put a thin spread of it on bread and just add turkey only (maybe try mustard with it too) it tastes delicious.
Oh that would have been great to see.
Me too.
😂they would have been appalled to see that
Homemade cranberry sauce is SOOOO much better than that stuff that comes out of a can!!!
As a Southern American, I can honestly say I quite enjoyed this! Such well behaved young men.
Kids are absolutely adorable, esp the part where they were saying what they were thankful for.
This video is so wholesome and sweet. Should’ve gave them babies some Turkey, Mac n cheese, collard greens, stuffing, rolls, yams, ham, deviled eggs, and that “mf cornbread” 😂.
They’d be on the first plane to America if they had our version of thanksgiving lol
Don't forget sweet potato pie!
@@RJ-lk6lcAnd fast, it's quickly disappearing, more than 50 % of today's black women under 40 don't know how to cook, as a matter a fact, all my friends in their 20s always order out and don't cook anything, and that's going to be the future!
No fr
@hectormanuel9793 That's a weird reach to make..... Where did you pull that out of?
As a southerner, if only these kids tried real southern thanksgiving recipes😂 they’d never wanna have anything else again!
As a southerner I HATE THE WAY THE SAY PECAN!
Exactly 😂
I was thinking the same thing because this wasn’t right lol
If they had turkey neck greens and baked macaroni they would be amazed
theyd also have diabetes
I'm an American citizen and even I always say that sweet potatoes are a dessert. I've never had the marshmallows on top and I think it'd be far too sweet together for my pallet. With a bit of salt and butter added is so delicious 🤤
You gotta do Marsh Mellows, Brown Sugar, cinnamon, and cloves in your sweet potato casserole! Just marshmallows and sweet potato is not enough. Gotta do the whole thing, and yes, eat it as a dessert.
Oh brother
Try Paula Deen's Old No.7 Sweet Potatoes with Black Jack Daniels bourbon simmered into the potatoes. Not a marshmallow in sight and they're SO fabulous...
@@Judith-wq2jp That actually sounds succulent and something I may enjoy. I'll have to try it. Thank you for the recommendation!
You can Google the recipe. My friend Karen turned me on to them. The bourbon adds another element of flavor that is just wonderful. Since I discovered this way to make them, those poor marshmallows got left in the dust.
While we're on the subject of marshmallows, does anybody else remember when CAMPFIRE marshmallows were packed in a box instead of a see-through plastic bag? They were SOOO good!
"It's like you took nuts from the local park and put syrup on it" I mean he's not wrong 😂
I’ve celebrated 43 Thanksgivings and this is the first I’ve ever heard of the “famous” thanksgiving sandwich.
So you're not a fan of "Friends."
The sandwich is a Black Friday special treat!
I used to take these for lunch during the week between Thanksgiving and Christmas
@@jarodh-m6099 lol not so much. Team Seinfeld!
They went overboard on that monster sandwich. Slap some leftovers between two (just two) slices of bread and you're good to go.
Feeding the school kids for a year is an admirable use of your ad revenue. I like how you crossed over this segment into your Jolly channel.
Oh I didn’t even realise this wasn’t the koreanenglishman😂
Lmfao right 😅
@@Fikunmi07 I was also expecting Korean food at first until I realized this is Jolly :').
Gets to write it off for tax aswell
@@Fikunmi07 OMG, me too! LOL.
Those kids are soo well educated. 😊 They are soo respectful that is it greatly appreciated.
Btw our Thanksgiving is a mix of two cultures. We cook the Turkey (not dry at all), and then we make tamales and mole. We have even tried making pumpkin tamales and pecan pie tamales...but we still need to work on that recipe...well, not a really "recipe" as we don't really measure when cooking, we eyeball everything.
We have a Mexican-American Thanksgivings. ❤
That’s just an American thanksgiving with other food?!?
America is a melting pot; thanksgiving is just giving thanks.
Mmm those tamales sound good! I made Thanksgiving leftover tacos just like the sandwich they had and they were delicious!
too many hyphenated Americans. be proud of your heritage but your American if your a citizen of the USA not from where you came from.and you are either a Mexican or an American.two different countries.
Then they grow up to be Jack The Ripper🦹🙆
Life seems pretty good in most of the UK. So much talent from the UK has benefited thw world
You need to do a part 2 and include the real stuff....macaroni and cheese, collard greens, green bean casserole, stuffing, Deviled Eggs
do you really think people from the UK don't eat macaroni and stuffing?
Ohhh! Deviled eggs are delicious! No doubt about it!
Yeah!!
@@Y.E.O.S its different though by a long shot
@mr_minty idk. I've been to England just once. The food seemed bland- probably cause I was in touristy areas and not with a local. I'd live to come back and see Ireland and Scotland one day 😊
I'm actually crying. Donating your ad revenue from Establish Titles to feed every child at Fulham School breakfast for a year is so incredibly generous. As a teacher, I fully appreciate how a healthy breakfast can set children up for success. I am sure the staff and families at the school are so appreciative of your generosity. May God bless you both.
Established titles is a scam
@@Kailo.B well even better then that they didn't keep the money.
@@mamajinx except they are participating in a scam by advertising to their subscribers. That donation to the school is revenue from scammed viewers who paid real money for a illegitimate piece of paper.
@@mamajinx I'm onr of the people who bought from established titles using the code Josh and Olly gave only to find out that it's fake. I'm still waiting for my refund. I only found out about it because of Josh and Olly. Put me out $160 for the title document and frame smh.
@@Kailo.B it sounds like it is similar to websites that where you can buy a star and name it after someone. At least there is a tree that will be planted in your name?
I have to say that I really enjoyed watching all these people trying something they have never heard of with such politeness and manners!
Good Job to all of these young gentleman!
Wonderful Video!
Thank you for sharing!
These boys are so funny!! Their innocence and manners make my heart happy. I’ve watched every video and it has made my day (I’m American😂😂)
You really need to include turkey, stuffing/dressing and cranberry sauce. These are the foundation of a Thanksgiving dinner.
all of that was in the sandwich
tbf all of that is pretty much our Christmas dinner (which is probably why it wasn't included in the video)
True. It's not Thanksgiving without dressing.
i havent watched the video yet, and im shocked to read this -- how is that not what they will be eating....
we have turkey and stuffing in the uk. we have cranberry sauce but it's not as common
My parents had an exchange student from Norway. Several years later, we went to Norway to visit his family and he requested that we cook him and his family an American thanksgiving dinner while we were there 😂
Thats a lot of work 😂
Did you make it? I gotta know! Haha
😂 Dude had no clue
That's fantastic! How'd it turn out?!
Aaawh ❤️ that's so sweet
"That's very interesting." Such a British way of saying "meh"
Such sweet, polite young men! God bless them.
I find it really endearing when Lord Smith is just beaming and delighted to try food. Be like Lord Smith.
He’s the real kid all excited in the videos every time I love it!! 😂
"Be Like Lord Smith"...totally need that on a t-shirt/bumper sticker!
BE LIKE LORD SMITH
Hail!
It really bothers me that they are selling the scam that is established titles. It’s the same as the whole pay to name a star or own part of the moon.
They asked the two boys what they’re thankful for and they immediately turned their chairs toward each other 😭 that was so cute 9:05
THEY'RE ARE MEN @13
Nope, definitely boys, lol
Yes, so touching 💖
they probably looked at eachother for an answer, doesnt mean anything
@@WaltuhPoliceMP at least they know how to act in public. Some kids don't care and say and do anything regardless 🤔
Advice for Pecan pie. Put in the microwave for like 30seconds or 1minutes then put a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of that. It will blow their minds off. I was born and raised in the Philippines and moved to the United States 13years ago. My first Thanksgiving here in the States my sister in law made cobbler pie with ice cream, there were literal sparks in my mouth when i tried it. It blew my mind away cz I've never tasted anything that good before.
Yup!!!! Pumpkin pie cold, and pecan pie warm with vanilla ice-cream.
I love their smiles on their faces when they enjoy the food & their reactions are priceless!
Depending on where you are in the US the thanksgiving meal is going to vary a LOT
Thank you, same thing I said. Freedom to chose our family menu 🤣
Absolutely. We've never had sweet potatoes or pecan pie for Thanksgiving. We've also never had green bean casserole, which wasn't featured in the video but, appears on many people's Thanksgiving and Christmas tables.
Indeed! In addition to turkey, we also have honey-glazed ham. We also have rolls, corn bread, Mac n cheese, green bean casserole, a potatoe dish, pecan pie and Ranger cookies. Yum to all of it!
I mean it's going to vary but most people who called a traditional Thanksgiving Day meal know exactly what it's in reference to.
@@alewicke those things are very southern. I live in Texas and they’re very common here. That sweet potato casserole is like a taste of heaven! Green bean casserole is pretty good too. Very cheesy. Oh, and chances are, the turkey you have down here is going to be fried. That will change your life if you’ve never had it. Fried turkey is moist and tender. Not at all Dry.
I'm a 67 year old Amrican. I have never heard of a Thanksgiving sandwich that has all of the table food piled on it. Just the meat. These boys were lovely.
It's a joke from the show Friends. Lol
I'm 67 and we have a turkey restaurant at a food court in a big mall here in Palm Beach Gardens, Fl. Business is brisk year round and the biggest seller is the turkey sandwich with turkey, moist bread stuffing and cranberry sauce. It's delicious! And I'm not a big turkey fan.
@@frankphillips5660 that’s the only way I’ve done a turkey sandwich.
I'm a 42 year old American. We've always made sandwiches out of the leftovers, like what was shown here. There are restaurants that make them as a special item around this time of year. Jobs I've worked at (mostly hospitals), will make them too.
@@RavenLunacy44 it's real as well.
As an American - this is hysterical. These young men are so well mannered and kind, their genuine reactions are a delight. Thank you
You did an exceptional job.
Introducing our American food to the students.
Great job!!
“How can you have Turkey and marshmallows together?”
As an American, I rolled my eyes. Then after pondering on the idea for a few seconds…dude kinda has a point. 😂
Tbf the marshmallow thing is a bit weird 😂
I never eat this. Savory and sweet doesn't do it for me. I don't understand it either.
To be fair, about half of us are anti marshmallows it seems like! And that's if people want sweet potatoes at all, a divisive side in the US In my experience. I prefer the dark horse option, sweet potato casserole with pecan streusel topping.
Candy yams
As a 47 year old American... I never heard of that or saw that in my life at any Thanksgiving dinner or anywhere else.
This was so very sweet. Just lovely. These boys are so articulate and polite, funny and intelligent. Such a pleasant change from American boys. Well done Fulham Boy’s School. Mr. Smith is the funniest Principal ever!
Pecan pie was literally invented by a corn syrup company in order to sell more corn syrup.
It’s just a pie crust filled with vanilla corn syrup and some pecans on top to hide the fact that it’s just a tub of corn syrup.
And it’s glorious.
"the English don't do flavor" 😂😂
At least they're honest lol
😂😂😂
No...they don't. Butter and salt. That's about it.
🤣🤣
Silly lie for them to tell
@@JamieCarter-wv8rp is that all you use. You should be more like the British and use loads of different herbs and spices
The triumphant return of Mr. Smith. What an absolute legend.
you mean Lord Smith
ITS LORD SMITH...
Now and forever known as Lord Smith
I go to the school hes super mean btw
@@ostam-jm5xhe seems like an alcoholic step dad
These are my favorite things to watch on TH-cam. People from other countries tasting American foods and candies. Lol very entertaining
My mother made the absolute best whipped sweet potatoes with toasted marshmallow topping. And yes we ate it as a side dish alongside the turkey and everything else. It was a nice contrast to all the savory things on the menu.
The tradition of doing this dates pretty far back to the beginning of the 20th century- c. 1918. My mother called it “candied yams with Marshmallows.” Mom was born in 1921, and she was expert at making this dish. Her sweet potatoes or yams were always super creamy and not too sweet, and the marshmallows were absolutely flawlessly toasted to a pleasing golden brown.
I like the boy who said you'd have to go for a run after Thanksgiving dinner. We Americans know that you have to go before because after a FULL true Thanksgiving dinner you can't move due to your food coma. 😋 That is why all city's Turkey Trots are in the morning.
Run to Walmart, Best Buy, and Macy’s after thanksgiving dinner for Black Friday sale 😅😅😅
Right! I am completely unreliable for anything after Thanksgiving dinner.
Well you also got to smoke the Za with your brothers/sisters so that’s we go on walks
@@bmpplays9927 🤣🤣🤣🤣
More like a nap on grandma's floor
I am overjoyed to see Malachi and Henry again (congratulations on being Head Boy!!!). The new high schoolers are a joy and Lord Smith is an absolute treasure. If you can find a way to combine Pecan pie and Korean radish, he would be set for life. I love what the boys are grateful for, so sweet! Thank you for providing breakfast for the boys like this! So incredible!!!
The way I squealed when I saw them!
@@joannebreretonm684 every time I see Malachi, I remember how hard I laughed at the Fire Noodle challenge when he said "I thought I was African. I thought it was in my genes" 🤣🤣🤣
@@jaimeknoble3315 I remember! I did too!😂🤣and I missed him so in the later videos. I'm so happy to see him again!
No, no, no combining pickled radish and pecan pie. Just eat them one after the other
Is Henry the new head boy? How'd you know?
I think it has a bit to do with if you watched Friends or not. Most who did know the Moist Maker Sandwhich. Classic episode. The sandwhich sounded so good that ppl started making it. And it IS that good. The key is the moist maker on the middle. Its a 3rd slice of bread dipped on gravy and placed on the middle like a big mac. That way the outside bread stays dry yet the sandwich is still moist. And made from all the Thanksgiving, Xmas leftovers.
The boy who ate everything was so delightful to watch. He can sit at my table if hes ever in America. I love to see kids eat...i feel they understand its just not food.
As a teacher, thank you so much for deciding to use your sponsorship money to buy breakfast for the whole school. It makes such a massive difference, especially as for some kids the only food they get is what they eat at school. Working with kids who have actually had something to eat in the morning makes a massive difference
When us British people don't like something but don't want to seem rude:
'very interesting'
It’s the manners for me lol
😂😂😂😂 🇺🇸❤🇬🇧
Very true
As an American some of the stuff they didn’t like was completely trash anyway 🤷♂️
Sounds like the American South version of "Bless your/their heart".
The students friendly demeanor and cordiality is refreshing.
These kids really are awesome, I’m from Chicago and they remind me of my friends from 6-8th grade. Love it.
Next year we should ship several grandmothers over to make them an authentic Thanksgiving meal because the food is so much better when it's made with love.
Lol I'd definitely second that!!!
LEGIT. Only your grandmas or your mamas thanksgiving tastes good. Store bought is an abomination.
Send them on July 4th
Agreed!
@@dawnjanz 😋
It always astonishes me how pecan nuts haven't traveled over to Europe. They are such a big thing in North America.
You can get them easy enough in the UK it’s just that other varieties of nuts are more popular.
I prefer them to walnuts. They have a sweeter taste. Walnuts can have a bit of bitterness.
They’re not nuts. They come from trees. They’re pits
Well they're here in Ireland! Bear claw pastry with pecans is very popular.
@@willchurch3743 No they are not. Botanically, pecans are nuts! Pits are in fruits like cherry, peaches and olives. All of which grow on trees. Peanuts are the 'nuts' that botanically are NOT nuts (they are legumes).
My family didn't make sandwiches after Thanksgiving but we did wrap turkey, cranberries and and stuffing in lefsa. As for yams and marshmallows, ick! We always had roasted turkey with stuffing made with celery and nuts, roasted yams, mashed potatoes (leftovers used to make lefsa), fresh cranberry sauce made from berries (not canned) and squash or pumpkin pie with ice cream.
For a non American ,it's hard to explain how highly regional our Thanksgiving celebration menus can be. For example, our family would never have marshmallows on their sweet potatoes, pecan pie, or green bean salad. Thanksgiving meals are diverse, fascinating and strange 😂 that being said, the one constant for ir most meals is the turkey.
I hate green bean casserole. It looks awful 😖 😱 😮
And stuffing- Brown/beef gravy too.
Mexican-American here. My moms would make turkey tamales with the leftovers.
@@Fermifire nice! I first had ewal tamales when spending a summer in Detroit Michigan on all places. A bag of tamales and a tub of sauce, yum 😋 .
@@Fermifire homemade from scratch tamales might be the greatest food to ever exist. When we had parades growing up the Hispanic moms and grandmas around would wake up early to make a bunch of them and have their kids go sell them 2 for a dollar. I know they're not the easiest or quickest to make from scratch but they were the best parts of the parades for me as a kid.
Adorable and hilarious. Love it when one of the boys said: "The English don't do flavor."
Yeah that was pretty funny
I just love watching these kids and really appreciate their willingness to try new foods.
Jay! ❤ Bless him. Doesn't like any of the food but stays polite and cheerful.
Hats off the the parents of those boys- they are very well mannered, polite, respectful and funny.
Give credit to the culture too
They definitely Givin yall the wrong food to taste bio you need Collard green with smoked turkey butts , candie yams, cornbread stuffing, pot roast and potatoes ,sweet potato pie ,no marshmallows we don't do that 🙏 hickory smoked ham,or stuff turkey and devileggs periodddt part 2.
they go to a posh school soooooo...
In the US traditional side dishes vary wildly from region to region and family to family. That being said, Thanksgiving sandwiches are not served at Thanksgiving dinner. They are an option for eating the leftovers. They do appear on some restaurants menus year round though.
He literally noted it in the video that this is what you do with a leftover thanksgiving. Bruh.
@@otrz8009 Sorry Bruh!
@@johnossendorf9979bruv
Also, I think they're replicating the sandwich Monica makes Ross in friends, where she soaks a slice of bread in gravy and sticks in the middle of the sandwich.
@@awesome220 k
SO precious! Josh and Ollie do such great works! My husband was born and raised in Scotland. I am so in love with these two. Great job!! You are amazing boys (I am over 50, so you are boys) :)
Sweet Potato Casserole is a southern dish (which usually means overly sweet).
What I make for Thanksgiving is Sweet Potatoes Mashed with baked Apples until combined then sprinkle a bit of cinnamon sugar over it.
Pecan Pie is also a southern thing which is why it's so sweet.
"The English don't really do flavor, do they" 🤣🤣The funniest thing I've heard all day!
And vastly inaccurate.
@cageordie I know, but, it's still funny ..Kids.. lol
@@cageordie Those world war rations are muy delicioso😏

He already was the head boy in the last video he appeared in lol did people really forget or not know?
@@thatgirl9532 i think people forgot. but it's nice to see him again regardless!
@@thatgirl9532 that's right. Since he's in year 13 now, someone from year 12 will have to replace him soon.
@@terichewbaccazulu5908sure is. Can’t wait to see more of them. 😁
I could watch videos like this all day. You said they had 150 kids, I need videos watching all of them trying American food. 😊 I love listening to what they say about the food and the words they use to describe it. ❤
Please do a series just with Mr. Smith. I can just imagine his reaction to biscuits and gravy or chicken and waffles. That's a man who loves food. Any food.
The fact that they bought breakfast for entire school is the true spirit of thanksgiving
and for the whole year, too! what a great use of ad revenue :)
🤔 As an American, I do have one thing to say about the food selection- it was all sweet stuff and not the traditional cheesy scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole, etc. I guess are those more familiar dishes in Britain?
It's more about American centric items I guess. Something like gratin or dauphinoise they'd probably have exposure to already
They didn't even have turkey or stuffing, the 2 main Thanksgiving dishes
I eat sweet potato casserole in my family, but the way we do it is with cinnamon Chex mix, nuts, and brown sugar on top along with the marshmallow.
As a Black American I can say I've NEVER had green bean casserole nor scalloped potatoes. 🤷🏿♀️
No manicotti either. Gotta have manicotti!
Such sweet boys 💙💙💙 SO glad they enjoyed most of the food! These are all foods I have grown up with at Thanksgiving and some at Christmas too 🥰🥰🥰
Their reaction to the Pecan pie is very accurate. Either you either really love it or you dont.
"The British don't do flavor, do they?" from that one boy made me laugh so hard!
I love this series of videos you guys do. The boys' reactions are so pure, honest, and spontaneous. I also love that they are so well dressed at school. A big difference from American high schoolers where the kids dress like slobs. Keep up the good work.
It's okay, many of us in the U.S. laugh about the "Turkey Pardon" too!! It's one of the silliest things about Thanksgiving. But I do have to say, if you tried MY sweet potato casserole, you'd sing a different tune! LOL So fun to watch you try "American" foods. We do the leftovers on the leftover rolls though, not on toast. So it's much like a turkey slider. So good!! Keep up the great videos!
I love how these kids are so well mannered. Very refreshing.
They must be very pleasant to teach over the Pond.
They traded flavor for manners.
@dark_zero 11 whatever works at this point
trueeeee
hats off to the amazing headmaster and teachers and parents who are doing a bang-up job of helping these boys become thoughtful, polite, inquisitive, and confident young men. and Ollie's "what i'm thankful for" brought a tear to my eye.
I thought it was just me. Hearing these young men say what they are thankful for was really refreshing. They are so polite.
🙌
They even cover their mouths when they're full!
Their personalities are certainly more refined than American kids.
You don’t want to know what it’s like off camera at English schools 😂😂
The new highschoolers are equally as sweet and polite as the OG ones
And I love how Jay was down to try everything despite being a bit skeptical!
Thanksgiving dinner consists of Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes with gravy and rolls. Some families also do Mac n cheese and/or deviled eggs. Pumpkin, pecan pie or apple pie for dessert. Of course there are some varieties amongst individual families but these are the main staples that most families have. There’s always so much food at thanksgiving, you have leftovers for days
It will never cease to amuse me watching our lovely cousins across the pond encounter flavor for the first time ;)
y'all are awesome
The trippiest thing for me, once the internet became a thing, was realizing phrases like “head boy” were not magical Harry Potter things that were made up but something that actually exists
I read it in a Diana Wynne Jones book.
What does Head Boy mean?
@@LisaSpangenberg it's like a student council thing but weightier

@@LisaSpangenberg it’s like a student president in school. Someone who are representing the school’s entire student body. They are normally the most senior perfects in the schools (a very good model student: an A’s straight, good behavior, well-spoken, have a leadership type of student)
Schools also have houses.
These kids are an absolute delight. Their parents have clearly done an excellent job bringing them up....
It’s definitely not just the parents bringing up the kids well, the kids have a substantial part in it as well
And good education.

Great episode! Thank you, gentlemen!
Gosh I want to cook a whole Thanksgiving dinner for all of you! I don't put marshmallows on my sweet potatoes though. I boil them, mash them, and add a little salt, butter, and balsamic vinegar until it's juuuust right.
These boys are so polite and well spoken, it's so refreshing.
As an American teacher I am in awe of such educated young boys 😅 (not me 20 yrs old speaking as such)
@@lizzperez2204anyone would be lucky to be there friend
YES! I teach American children and they are not nearly as polite as the boys at this school. Well done!!
All American children are not created equally... My children, 2 daughters and a son, SPEAK AS ELOQUENTLY AND POLITELY AS THESE YOUNG MEN. We taught them to and insist that they do. Theres a place and time for slang and cutting up but they literally know better... No accent though😊😇❤️
I'm sure there might be a few private high schools that would have young men like this.
As an American, I see how strange some of our traditions seem to others. Never thought of it that way. When they said thanksgiving was July 4th, I died of laughter ❤
When I see these type of videos. It's always the generic Thanksgiving 🤣 I vote they have a series trying dishes served at Thanksgiving from different cultures in the US
@@terynb4407 or even just the different regions, Thanksgiving tables look so different there’s no way to show all the variety in a single video

I mean, Americans are already weird, there’s no escaping it, but the pardon is definitely just a chance for the President to dork around and do something silly for a change. I mean, they do a lot of silly things but most aren’t meant to be funny…
What an extremely adorable group of young gentlemen! I really love their personalities!
I LOVE THANKSGIVING. I used to cook it for my family. And I totally do sweet potatoes differently!!!!
LOVE pumpkin pie...but also love sweet potato pie and pecan pie for Thanks giving.
My best is the turkey, gravy, and stuffing when I cook.
I cried about the free breakfast!!!
Should have done a traditional Thanksgiving dinner no sandwich! turkey mashpotatoes, gravy stuffing, green been casserole, corn, dinner roll, but you got the pumpkin and pecan pie right! ❤
They know what most of those things are. They've had a roast turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy. The only one they may not know of that list is green bean casserole. I was expecting that to come out... along with canned cranberry sauce (if they don't have that in England)
@@deaconcub Yeah but I think if you gave them a full plate with a bit of everything that would have been better than the sandwich as an experience. Because we do not do roast dinner for Thanksgiving the same way they do roast dinner in England.
So basically a Sunday roast then for us in the UK?
Where's the stuffing? My mom learned from her father to make pork sausage stuffing. I could forego everything and just eat that.
But they also know what sandwiches are!@@deaconcub
8:00 “there’s no such thing as too sweet”
A true American at heart 🇺🇸
All hail Lord Smith
In my defense i think he got sweet teeth
Oh yes there is, it gets very sickly when something is too sweet.
I just love they accent. As an American I’ve never had a thanksgiving sandwich 😂
As a yank, I find this channel incredibly entertaining. My feelings move back and forth from pride to embarrassment between segments.
So, so, so true
Imagine calling yourself a yank
@@isaackelly1294 True. I just call myself an American. As a Southerner, I call Northerners Yanks
@@Wagyuary The Brits call all us Yanks.
??? Why do Brits insist on calling us "Yanks", smh. It's more annoying listening to southern Americans calling people north of the Mason-Dixon line "Yankees"....good gawd its 2023
Being American, it never occurred to me how different we all are when it comes to our traditions and the types of food we celebrate with. THANK YOU for the videos, I just love these kids reactions ❤️
To be fair though, the Brits don't actually celebrate Thanksgiving at all.
They never had Pilgrims going through a harsh winter or any of that. It's mainly an American thing, but also adopted by Canada.
Aca en SudAmerica tampoco se celebra esta festividad.
I would think Americans are typically more aware of the big differences between cultures. They don't call America a "melting pot" just for fun.
@@jurisprudence6549 they’re aware of the differences, but when a holiday has its traditional dishes it can be surprising when others create there own. not hard to understand
It's March and I've just bought a pumpkin pie at the store...so thankful they are still making them because November was a bit ago.
Wow, you both are amazing for buying those kids breakfast for a whole year!❤
Me, a canadian, absolutely shook that thanksgiving was introduced as a sandwich, marshmallows and pie 😩
Yeah in America we have turkery, mash potatoe with gravy, green bean, cranberry sauce, and pie. None of this weird sandwhich and sweet potatoe with marshmellow. Maybe it a south thing??? The south eat a lot of casserole.
@@bobbysmith8095 wait you've never had yams for thanks giving. I'm from new England btw so def not a southern thing but I feel like "sweet potato casserole" as they call it was a staple lol. The sandwich however is weird BUT 7-11 does have them. Also to be fair on the sandwich they did say they took that from Friends and from what I've heard a lot of people in Europe tend to learn a ton of american things from Friends 🤣🤣
Me too. As an American this was a big miss on what we eat at Thanksgiving. Never had a sandwich. Lol....
@@bobbysmith8095 I'm GA born and bred, and we had turkey, dressing, sweet potato casserole, corn, celery & broccoli with ranch, deviled eggs, cranberry salad, crescent rolls and chocolate pie for dessert. Here we put pecans on top of the sweet potato casserole instead of marshmallows, and it's DIVINE! My favorite Thanksgiving side dish, but it really should be dessert.
Lol, I think this is a pretty normal thanksgiving for me, I’m from Long Island.
Of course, most of the main dishes (turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, Brussels sprouts) are stuff UK teens would be familiar with, hence the bit more selective mix of foods.
I think the sandwich was from a tv show, but I’ve definitely made something similar out of leftovers on many Black Fridays.
So polite yet full of character. Kids are growing up well and their parents would be proud.
If only most of our young men here would be like this.
@@ladyd8339 We have many decent, respectful and God-fearing young men in the USA. My fellow Brits would tell you our youth also have a large number of ill-mannered, disrespectful and slovenly young people here. We can compliment these sweet young British boys without smearing young men in America in such a general manner.
Wdym "would be proud"? Are their parents not alive or smthn?
@@MTknitter22 People with the "grass is greener on the other side" mindset always comment lol Finally someone with a mind
I behaved in front of a camera at that age as well but it didn't mean I was a saint off camera.
As a southern woman they would not know how to act on one of our thanksgivings 😂 I’m one of 89 grandchildren…. We have enough to feed an army for thanksgiving and Christmas 😂😂😂
That sounds fun. I can imagine the hard work.
This is why each family is different with whst they serve because not the entire family likes everything and for variety. Turkey is served w a ham or roast beef but stuffing and cranberry sauce are staples at just about every Thanksgiving meal.
I wish my kids could go to a school like this. They are all so well mannered, well dressed, and respectful. Must be a wonderful school.
There's plenty of schools like this in the USA
Dude, I'm 39 and I wish I could go to a school like this. They're all so lively and charming.
These are most likely the "good kids" that the headmaster prefers over the rest
I promise you not all of them are this well mannered. Lol
They're so different than some American kids. Can't get over how legit funny they all are.
I'm American. I've never in my life had a leftover sandwich that had all of those ingredients on it. It's usually just turkey and maybe dressing but the sides stay on the side. Even I think that's weird.😆
Ive had left over turkey sandwhiches but not like that. However I intend to try it now, Im sure I will like it !
Facts
I've had cranberries on my turkey sandwich.
So true! I've seen it on TV and in cartoons and always wondered, "who tf does that?!"
Speak for yourself bro i usually put turkey, ham, mac and cheese, sweet potato, and cranberry sauce on mine
When making my sweet potato pie, I never use the marshmallow topping. I've always used a pecan, brown sugar and butter mixture on top.
As an American I've never had a Thanksgiving sandwich, but I saw this before last Thanksgiving and made one and I gotta honestly say, everything went together so well except for the yams lol. It was great just keep the yams on the side 😂
what a nice way to start the day knowing the British Highschool series isn't over 😂😂❤
On gawd 😆
Thank god. This is the best series ever!!!
its getting boring and stale.. need to change it up. maybe a mixed or all girls school for a change
@@vorlon81 maybe it's you that has changed not them lol spread positivity, these are just normal highschoolers. they don't need to carry the burden of "being the next" so and so
@@thatgirl9532 we really look forward to these notifications!!
11:57 - Wow they could have used the sponsorship $$ for anything else, but chose to give back to the kids ❤️ with inflation & cost of living nowadays, this could mean the world to some of these kids/parents - Josh & Ollie, you guys are doing such awesome work 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
3rd Thursday of every November. Hopefully you will all come over to America and actually enjoy it some day!
