I was delighted to receive this can as a birthday gift a while back - it's a can of Big Bamboo Jamaican Irish Moss (Carageenan) Peanut Flavoured Drink.
One of the most genuine content creators I've seen. I love how you keep your channel honest, not allowing your scambaiting videos to take over. I also love the wide variety in your channel! From food to tech, to crafting, to even smelting. Please never stop and keep your channel honest!
Nightmare Blade 😁 For anyone else that's curious what we're on about: 2:35 (been bothering me that I didn't leave a timestamp for you, NB lol...yes, I do hv issues lol)
I found your channel through the scambaiting videos, but i've really come to love the rest of your videos too, especially the beach walks and your food ones. Keep it up, your channel really is a one of a kind mix of stuff. Take care!
Hey I'm from Jamaica. I use to drink these all the time. Really enjoyed them too. You can try it with a sweet snack when it's been chilled, really cool. I haven't had one in a few years because it contains soy and I don't like the idea of consuming soy a lot. Before that it was one of my favorite drinks. That's the OG flavor but others are out now that are way better. Great channel, I'll definitely sub. Have a good one!
@@azurda7483 I've always read studies that say soy emulates estrogen and has the potential to lower testosterone levels. I wanna keep my testosterone as high as possible throughout my lifetime for sex, muscle mass and all that good stuff so I try to avoid anything that might put that at risk.
Good thing I checked the comments before saying the same thing, mostly. I'll just add that not far from Jamaica, they use bamboo as an expression of measurement. Not a unit per se or they would need an étalon.
Well I've been watching you now I think for over 2 years I'm not quite sure this weird stuff in a can had his good points and bad points as it's weird points but that one's got to be up there somewhere that have near the top good luck to you tomorrow morning that's all I can say and the well fair play to you for your courage I'll keep watching all the best buy
I keep coming across these vids that slipped through the net and I still have not seen, I get so exited then realize I've just forgotten that I've watched it and I remember it as soon as it starts haha
due to the thickness it could be good for some kind of culinary ebru (paper marbling) crafting. I wonder if you could suspend food coloring in it and then give swirly colors to a smooth peanut cookie or something?
Oi.. My dad works at that factory. Don't be disrespecting my DRINK LIKE THAT D:< Sorry this is like 0:05 into the video. P.S We have other flavors like just Irish drink without the peanut. Such as the factory produces, Carrot juice, fruit punch and bake beans all in a tin. Also another side note. Irish Moss +Carrot Juice+ White Rum+ Nutmeg +Guinness =Wonderful Punch drink.
2:20 - That's how soda-cans were back in the 60's and 70's. They made the attached stay-tab in the 80's because of all the dangerous, sharp metal litter from people dropping their pull-tabs all over the place.
we get these in south florida, they’re really good icy cold when it’s wildly hot out (our dew point is above 80°) as it goes down thicc and cools you off.
That sounded like it was a bit of a challenge to actually swallow. As you say, maybe with some rum or similar, but I think that is another one I will pass on 😍👍
Seems like a cross between the aloe drinks that are all the rage here in American right now and chocolate milk or ensure... huh. Wish I could try some.
Hey Atomic Shrimp! This question isn't really about the video so I apologize. I think I'm going to try gardening, and you seem to have an interest in gardening. Do you have any tips for me to get started?
Thanks for asking - sure, just a few of tips to get you started... 1: figure out what kind of garden you have - does it enjoy a lot of direct sun, or is it shaded by trees; is it generally dry, or very damp - is the soil fee draining and sandy, or heavy like clay? - once you've gathered some facts about your garden, choose plants that will enjoy those conditions - there are garden plants for almost any kind of environmental conditions, and choosing the right ones will help to ensure success. 2: Make sure you plan in something that you will find rewarding in the short term - what I mean is: don't start by planting an acorn and waiting for an oak tree - well, actually, do that if you want to - but also grow some strawberries, or aromatic herbs, or sweet-smelling annual flowers - or whatever you think you might be able to enjoy, and feel proud about within a fairly short term. 3: do the right thing for the time of year - assuming you're in the northern Hemisphere, it's getting a little late in the year to plant seeds, so pick things that *are* appropiate to plant now, such as live plants, spring-flowering bulbs, etc. Ask for specific advice on 'what can I plant now?' at a garden centre - you might not even need to ask, as many plan shops have seasonal displays
Atomic Shrimp, I took your advice on gardening, and I am currently starting by growing indoors, because I live in an apartment. I am growing Basil, I am going to try to grow Alyssum, but it is a bit late to plant those, so I'm just going to hope it will grow, and tomorrow I'm going to plant Painted Daisy's! Thank you for your advice, and keep on making the great content you have been making!
I saw Irish Moss and thought, oh, nice. Guinness. I like Guinness. My son calls it peat moss in a can though. Not too sure about the peanut thing. But I'll watch the video anyway because I like your content. Carry on. ETA: When you said it reminded you of something you were given for tonsilitis, I was immediately taken back to when I was 4 and had a kidney infection and had this wonderful stuff that I now know was penicillin in a suspension vaguely flavored with chocolate (this is a US version of maybe what you had). It was kept refrigerated and was supposed to be doled out four times a day. But I snuck sips any time I was alone in the kitchen. Suffice to say I apparently gave myself an overdose of antibiotics and ended up back in hospital and was told not to have any penicillin or related drugs. Not sure why as my mom is an inaccurate historian at best. But I've never dared try penicillin or any of its derivatives since just on the off chance I completely f-ed up my system as a child.
I was sick a lot as a kid and spent a lot of time on antibiotics. I remember drinking a banana flavoured antibiotic suspension that I absolutely loved! Luckily I did not overdose on it...I was a weird child and had impulse control that most kids didn't have I suppose, because that stuff was tasty and mom used to keep it in the fridge.
When I was a kid and we got a chest infection or something similar, the go to treatment besides antibiotics was this green slime like cough medicine called Irish Moss. The vilest tasting liquid you could possibly imagine. Still makes me shudder just thinking about it. Unfortunate name similarity would completely put me off even trying this one.
I thought its consistency looked similar to custard and believed it wouldn't be too much of a challenge to try. Then I heard the word "liquorice." That's not a flavor that's sparking the good in my imagination.
I wish your non scam baiting stuff got more views. They are jolly good
Came for the scams, stayed for the cans.
(not my joke but I thought well worth repeating)
its not scambaiting but i dont care its still entertaining love ya atomic keep it up

You described the drink very well, and now I can taste the drink. Very nice.
“How may I kelp you?” Haha

Why do you not consume soy anymore? Just curious.

@@terr20114 everything in excess is bad.. eating only soy will do that, lol.
@@LyricsFred lol 😅 so true. Even "living in excess" will kill you someday.
not that kind of estrogen, though. Soyboy shit is a myth and is in no way true.
On one of several trips to Jamaica years ago, I seem to recall hearing that "Big Bamboo" was a suggestive euphemism for...well, you fill in the blank.
Crikey!
Good thing I checked the comments before saying the same thing, mostly. I'll just add that not far from Jamaica, they use bamboo as an expression of measurement. Not a unit per se or they would need an étalon.
Kind of makes me think of the big Johnson shirt brand in the us lol
"Well that is a chewy drink" is an amazing quote
Damn that drink be looking extra thicc
This drink is absolutely amazing if you get it fresh made. I had lots of seamoss and peanut punch back when I was visiting the Caribbean.
“Well that’s a chewy old drink that one”
A company called BIG BAMBOO has a JAMAICAN IRISH moss peanut butter drink imported from LONDON. Cool.
Oddly, I would like to try this. I'll have to keep an eye out for it in Atlanta....
I am not sure if we ship to that area
@@hollyjewels787 Which areas do you guys ship to in the US?
Your scammer series made me click, this made me stay.
I bet it would be good mixed with hot chocolate.
I wish more channels were wholesome and interesting like this one. I've tried Irish miss before. Its truly weird stuff in a can....
I use Irish moss in my home brewing to help it clear after the boiling.
You should open these drink cans with a can opener, just to annoy the pull-tab enthusiasts
Well I've been watching you now I think for over 2 years I'm not quite sure this weird stuff in a can had his good points and bad points as it's weird points but that one's got to be up there somewhere that have near the top good luck to you tomorrow morning that's all I can say and the well fair play to you for your courage I'll keep watching all the best buy
Based on the description alone (Jamaican peanut flavored Irish moss), yep seems weird enough to me!
It’s actually a pretty normal drink yt ppl just call everything “weird” that they don’t have knowledge of
You're a great person and all of your videos are great
I had one of those in my fridge for several years. I could never quite bring myself to try it, and finally chucked it when I moved.
What a poof
Irish Moss is an aphrodisiac, the clue is in the name, Big Bamboo! Drink all your Irish Moss up!
New favourite youtube series m8, I laughed so much at just the title
Weird Stuff In A Can
AND THERES OVER A HUNDRED VIDEOS OF THIS
OK, I'm definitely going to have a friend who travels frequently to Jamaica bring some back for me (I love eggnog)!
I really want to try this. It sounds like peanut eggnog.
It's a type of "strong back" drink, I believe.
Looks like something you would use as an ingredient for a winter cocktail.
Carageenan is used as an emulsifier (to add 'thickness') to drinks like chocolate milk, here in the USA.
Can't believe how much time I've spent watching these crazy videos . Can't consider it a waste of time because they're so enlightening ......
I think that sounds amazing as I love peanut butter milkshakes. Waiting to see your reaction with fingers crossed that its good!...
Lol didn't rum solve every English problem.

The Shaking sound of this should become the distinct sound effect of the wobble dog =D
Why am I watching a guy drinking weird stuff. Nah, idc, it's fun
Thank the gods! I thought at first that it was made from some kind of sphagnum moss...? A type of seaweed is a whole different story:) ☮🐱
Looks like a British equivalent of Ensure or Slim Fast. Maybe new slim not-at-all judging by the ingredients. How may I kelp you! Made my day.
Atomic: "Smells like a raw peanuts"
Me, with my bad hearing: "Smells like WHAT?"
love this drink, pretty much a peanut punch with seaweed for nutrients, prefer homemade, usually more peanut butter
Oi..
My dad works at that factory.
Don't be disrespecting my DRINK LIKE THAT D:<

which is the best? im irish btw so the irish one sounds yummy 😂😂
@@pinkguy2545 my entire family love the product strong back. But I think Irish moss is the best, I am not Fond of Peanut.
@@hollyjewels787 it sounds good 😂👍 I'll try to get my hands on some in thr future
Athletes drink this type of seaweed and Jamaicans drink it mixed with Guinness or dragon stout.
It's thiccer than a bowl of oatmeal.
*pointing gesture* 😎
I thought Roy was the Irish one. 😉
2:20 - That's how soda-cans were back in the 60's and 70's. They made the attached stay-tab in the 80's because of all the dangerous, sharp metal litter from people dropping their pull-tabs all over the place.
People used to drop the sharp tab back into the can then continue drinking and a lot of people swallowed the tab.
we get these in south florida, they’re really good icy cold when it’s wildly hot out (our dew point is above 80°) as it goes down thicc and cools you off.
Came for the scambaiting. Stayed for the weird things in cans.
I've had "Peanut Punch" which just tastes like a cup of melted peanut butter. Pretty good imo. But this, just looked odd.
Yeah, this was milder-tasting than peanut punch
MMMMMM, looks like a room temperature cup of nasal mucus.
YOU DIDNT HAVE TO SAY THAT
Born Again Torinos wtf
I prefer making my own and ofcourse takes great. Irish Sea moss is great for your body.
That sounded like it was a bit of a challenge to actually swallow. As you say, maybe with some rum or similar, but I think that is another one I will pass on 😍👍
Currently throwing up all over my phone at the thought of a peanut flavoured drink
Good shaking btw
Seems like a cross between the aloe drinks that are all the rage here in American right now and chocolate milk or ensure... huh. Wish I could try some.
Thats pretty cool. Weird and cool.
my dad used to blend peanuts, ice, milk, and a tad bit of milo and vanilla creamer, and omfg i would drink it by the gallon
I believe the order of ingredients is legally required to be in descending order so I think this is illegal in the UK?
possibly
Yep, just like what I personally judge on the can labels.

I mix mine, lemon honey, cinnamon and a bit of water
It's like a scambaiting version of Ashens, keep it up
I'm a bit of a fan of Ashens, so the comparison is a true compliment
😂😂😂😂 I love the proper sea moss made fresh but you did make me laugh
Irish Moss? I use that to help remove proteins from beer so its clear and pretty when you drink it. Never thought about just drinking the moss.
Add some rum to it, rum makes everything better
So. Seaweed (Kelp), peanut butter and peanuts. And it's a drink. Couldn't get much worse than that !
Combine this with a bit of rum and heat it a bit.. peanut nog. Sounds good
If the drink was really cold and you had a sore throat I can imagine the gloopiness could feel very nice going down
Masterpiece tablecloth
I feel like I'm tasting the drink with you

Wow, its consistency looks like syrup =0
Seems kinda interesting though, doesnt seem bad, definitely weird though!
It was more like custard. Weird sort of gloopy slightly slippery mouthfeel
Have you tried Dunns River nurishment (sic) ? Best hangover cure in a tin
Any Jamaicans or people of Jamaican heritage? 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Me ! I have English and Jamaican heritage
im irish?.... 😂😂
How may I kelp you 😂😂
Is it meant to be some kind of health drink? The seaweed being prominently featured on the can makes me think it might be.
By all the hipsters in the world! Said the {cat at the window} meow
1:42 surprised this man didnt pull out a paint shaker.
I jumped when you opened it with the tab. Then I realized it was different.
Second you absolute massive nice people.
OH MY GOOOOOOOOOD
Lmfao dude the way you shake a can....
It's called Big Bamboo for a reason..
Do you drink it or chew it
I thought its consistency looked similar to custard and believed it wouldn't be too much of a challenge to try. Then I heard the word "liquorice." That's not a flavor that's sparking the good in my imagination.
Checked the date to avoid surprises leading to confrontation with Soup nazis: check
It looks like a cross between Pepto-Bismol and Kaopectate.
I wanna try that drink it looks very interesting
Probably a health drink, as Irish Sea Moss is drunk for health reasons.
I think I know the medicine you speak of :P
Hello
First thanks for the video. Second out of 8;120 views you only have one hater, not bad. 👍🏽
Arms look weird when they shake stuff 😂
