Jaffa cakes by law is a cake. There was a court case in the high court because they wanted to prove they were a cake so tax did not need to be paid as cakes are tax free. It was determined they were a cake as cakes start off soft and go hard when stale whereas biscuits start off hard and go soft when stale.
Very interesting story about the Jaffa cakes. Thanks for sharing it with us. We also really enjoyed these cakes.
As far as I'm aware Prawn Cocktail things don't generally taste fishy, they're flavoured to taste like the cocktail sauce, not the seafood bit.
Basically Ketchup for the most part
Thanks for letting us know. We couldn't quite make out what the chips tasted like, but the cocktail sauce makes sense.
For the strongest prawn cocktail crisps, get Pringles
Jaffa cakes are amazing
We sometimes call them cookies for example when they are chocolate chip cookies but we call things like chocolate digestives biscuits, obviously it varies which part of the uk you’re from or if you are from america for example but live in the uk
Yeah. I didnt realise the same types of food have so many names. And also didnt realise the controversy that would be created online if you take up one name and not the other!! 😂
A snakebite is lager and cider. Adding blackcurrant to it makes it into a drink called a “diesel”
I was about to comment this 😭🤣
you might call it that now. It was always known as snakebite and black in my day.
Sorry but as a publican i can tell you a snakebite is just lager and cider if you add blackcurrant it becomes a snakebite and black 2 totally different drinks
Ahh Thanks for clarification! I stand corrected! Ali :)
Aka “diesel”
You should have tried dandelion and burdock, sparkling vimto, ribena and irn-bru. chocolate- double decker, crunchie, boost, maltesers, after eight thins. Biscuits- Jammy dodgers, wagon wheel, hobnobs.
In UK lockdown I got addicted to all the stuff you were trying and gained 85lb in 7 months
Pickled onion monster munch are the best 👌
I agree!
Beef monster munch are so much better
Prawn cocktail flavour is just the sauce flavour no prawn. It is tomato ketchup, mayo and Worcestershire sauce mixed together.
These crisps were also really good. Such an interesting flavor. Thanks for explaining it to us.
A snack bite is just cider and beer it becomes a drink called diesel when you add blackcurrant juice
There is no fake orange orange in the Jaffa cake, the jelly is made with real orange Uk we have natural ingredients unlike the us.
The biscuits are for dunking in tea or coffee
Ribena is very good indeed.
Live Ribena and I love having a hot Ribena drink when I'm not well.
You forgot to try Kit Kats And Terrys Chocolate Orange.. and Wotsits or Crunchy Wotsits or Quavers plus Skips 👍😎
DRINK COMMENT: ( this is probably long as hell) So, as a british person who has tried most of these things this is my comment, probably crying in pain or happy, Ribena: "Ribena, this is the blackcurrant flavour" makes me cry because ribena isnt good at making any other flavour except black current so personally if somebody said Ribena id know its black current. So, I agree with the review, but personally would buy it at a shop because its a classic and definetly agree with quite watered down, its a sort of mix sometimes, (fun fact by the way: alot of brits where I live, we use warmed up ribena as stuff like a drink if we have a bad cough, or just a winter drink. Lucozade: a personal fav of all flavours - agree with everything, orange is not my favourite original is the best, and err another fun fact: we also use original lucozade for colds, sick, sore throat, headache etc. again where I live, more common in children for lucozade, adults will usually drink ribena instead (DO NOT WARM LUCOZADE IF YOUR USING IT WHILE SICK)
BRO! I just saw Wine Gums at Publix 2 weeks ago and I considered getting them, but I got an Aero instead! Do you recommend?
Yeah, wine gums are good.
@@OneWayTicketAliHolly Okay! Imma go to the British aisle and let you know my critique! And then I'll try Jelly Tots!
Yeah the viennese whirls are shortbread cookies
Awesome🎉 we are youjin & Jaechul
Who met in chiangmai
Hey guys!! How are you? We will come visit you in Korea soon!
Hi just to let yk the brown hula hoops do have flavour it's just that sometimes they don't but shake the bag and the flavour will get on the crisps aka chips
Ah ok. Thanks for letting us know.
Snakebite and black, haha the 80's/90's Goth classic when it was still legal to buy it in bars in the UK, I drank so much snakebite as a student, so I appreciate why they banned it!!! 🤣
The biscuits are for dunking in tea or coffee tunnocks are from Scotland you didn't say
i love lucozade and theres lots of flavours like cherry, raspberry ripple, normal raspberry, apple and more
I wish I would have tried the cherry flavor too.
Viennese whirls are a British invention and are a form of shortbread.
The Viennese whirls were delicious!
Shortcake not shortbread
Love you guys and your content 😍
Appreciate your kind words :)
What could have been a great video- because you had such an excellent selection of quintessentially British treats, was ruined by the constant sniffing (became quite creepy after a while) and snobbery. It should be fun but you made it really unappetising, clinical and weird.
custard creams tase like oreos without the soot
Holly looks like Stacy from Eastenders, I kept on expecting her accent to change lol. Can you do Greggs products please
I’ve never seen Eastenders before. I’ll have to check it out. Not in London anymore, but I did go to Gregg’s a few times when I was there. The sausage roll was delicious.
Try irn bru drink made in scotland can be bought anywhere
There is also a un fissy ribena and lucozade
I didn't know that. Thanks!
Lucozade also helps u if Ur unwell
What is your favorite British snack?
Definitely the fingers and skips. 😍
My fav cakes in the UK r jammy Dodgers or Jaffa cakes give me either one idc I love them both
Jaffa cakes are so good!
It’s pronounced borbon, not bourbon, and it is named after the type of vanilla pod used for the flavour.
Thanks for the correct pronunciation and telling us how it got its name. We had no idea.
Lays and Walkers aren’t “equivalents”, Lays are rebranded
Thanks. awsome content,see you later, :)
We're so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Mate try the amazing meal deals
The meal deals are great!
Flakes are normally not meant to be eaten on their own. They are normally eaten as part of a 99 ice cream cone from an ice cream van. It is a cone topped with vanilla ice cream with the flake stuck in the top.
Interesting fact...did not know that. The flake was yummy, so I'm sure it would be even better with ice cream.
So everyone buys them from the shop and sticks them in ice creams??? They are 100% supposed to be consumed as a chocolate bar by themselves.
Well, you can do it either way, with or without ice cream still delicious
@@harleystubbs6199 agreed but to say they aren't eaten by themselves is ludicrous. I feel stupid for getting into an online dispute about something so meaningless but it upset me reading that 😂
@@chrisfleet999 yeah same
The Flake TV commercial proclaimed "Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate, tastes like chocolate never tasted before"
The advert was rather Risque as it had an attractive women "eating" the flake in a rather seductive way !!
The advert is probably here on TH-cam if you wanted to watch it !
As a british person who has tried a moonpie, do not compare a tea cake to one of them 😩
one suggestion... have a cloth backdrop to minimize echoing. Other than that... good video
Hey! Thank you for this suggestion! Will definitely be doing it next time. Thanks :)
I think Walkers prawn cocktail are thousand island sauce flavoured without the prawn.
As the name implies it's cocktail sauce. It's supposed to taste like a prawn cocktail.
The biscuit 🍪was supposed to be called bourbons pronounced BORBONS as in the French ruling family 🤴👸 pre-revolution, not the drink bourbon 🥃
Ah ok. Thanks for explaining it.
Holly didn't like anything 😅😅😄 and yes smelling snacks before eat them dosen't guarantee you of how it will taste
Probably because her pallet has acoustumtized to our British food . Still searching for the high sugar content of the USA. But then I don't like the American snacks . Hershie chocolate is vile 😫
We have Powerade and Gatorade
I'm sorry what? 'Lucozade so originally this is actually made for housewives when they first appeared in the 50s or something!'.
Lucozade started out as 'Glucozade' back in 1927. A doctor in Newcastle asked a pharmacist to make a glucose drink to give patients as glucose is more easily processed in the body of the sugars. The pharmacist invented a water and glucose drink, adding a flavour. Soon, his own sons started drinking it and it became more popular as a drink in it's own right, eventually demand outstripped production and another company was asked to make in on their behalf. This company dropped the letter 'g' and it became Lucozade.
Up until the late 80s, Lucozade was the drink you took into hospitals to give friends who were ill, or indeed if you were ill at home.
But the late 80s the company steered more into the recreational soft drink area more and more leaving the drinks, even the 'original' tasting very different to what it was.
In some ways Lucozade was one of the very first (non caffeine) energy drinks.
Lucozade pre-dates Fanta by 13 years and Gatorade by 38 years.
The tax on sugar here in the UK fucked things up for us i remember every snack being much more sweeter in the 90's and the noughties
That was the Soft Drinks Industry Levy - and as the name implies was for soft drinks only. So your memories of snacks being sweeter is nothing to do with the sugar tax.
Blame freakin Jamie Oliver
a snake bit!e is actually Lager and Cider....Lager and Blackcurrant is a Lager Black
Tuna sandwich with prawn cocktail crisps, lush.
She’s not a fan of the finger 🤫🤫😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻
not to be picy but glucose, lactose, sucrose etc are all sugars
to answer the question, its not called bourbon it is called bor-bon. Don't be fooled by the spelling.
Thank you for letting me know.
Turn the "monster" munch upside down, the clues in the name.
Yooo!! Just figured out this message! Hahah amazing!
SWEETS: ( this is probably long as hell) So, as a british person who has tried most of these things this is my comment, probably crying in pain or happy, rowntrees pick and mix: ive never had these but ive had all the sweets inside the bag so ill still review your review. "these remind me of gumdrops" pretty sure gumdrops just stole them. also, freeze them, they are so nice frozen, but also nice chewy. wine gums tangy: sh**, no further comment i dont even care what yall say. CHOCOLATE (technically still sweets so its included) A FLAKE: HALELUJAH! amazing, yes it looks a bit boring, BECAUSE it wasnt in a mr whippy. no further comment. cornflake cluster bites: really short and nothing for me to review on it but i dont rate them as high as yall do, personally not really a "HEY! I JUST THOUGHT! I WANT TO GO BUY SOME CORNFLAKE CLUSTER BITES" i never have them unless we have them in the kitchen or something, cadbury fingers: legendary but technically a biscuit "it just goes" she doesnt believe him, but he so right, once i had 3 trays of these next to me, they were somehow gone IN JUST 5 MINUTES?!?!? WHAT THE HECK, THEY DO NOT LAST. DO NOT BUY IF YOUR LIKE ME AND GET SO MAD WHEN YOU RUN OUT OF CANDY, "its kind of like a twix minus the caramel" I do not see that at all, they are two very different things. End. ( just saying, WHY IS A FREDDO NOT HERE? EXCUSE ME? A FREDDO IS THE MOST AND I MEAN THE MOST IMPORTANT BRITISH CHOCOLATE, EVEN THE BANK USES IT, THE PRICE OF A FREDDO HAS BEEN USED TO TRACK INFLATION SINCE THE START OF ITS CREATION.)
Thats not a snakebite thats a snakebite and black. Snakebite is just lager and cider.
Grrrr it's not a claw, turn it upside down.
It's a monster, clues in the name.
CRISPS: ( this is probably long as hell) So, as a british person who has tried most of these things this is my comment, probably crying in pain or happy, prawn cocktail walkers: personal would throw in the bin straight away kind of crisps. "smells good", Please go get your nose checked, they do not. "really good, I like these" my respect for this girl is going slowly down and thats just wrong i think they put the wrong flavoured crisps in that bag. Thai sweet chilly: no comment never tried. (sound amazing) skips: probably my favourite crisps heavily underrated. "it gets soggy so weird texture" thats why nobody actually lets them melt on their tongue. wotsits: used to love these a few years ago, recently started tasting horrible to me now. "smell so good" agreed, my respect for her is back up ''like cheetos'' they are basically cheetos just completely different to cheetos. Monster munch: top tier crisp "we got it in pickled onion" pickled onion is the best. yes the satisfying crunch is one of the best things about it. but the flavour is also top tier Mcoys: i think these crisps have the BEST texture out of all crisps in Britain. no further comment. bbq beef hula hoops: if you had these in school you were like top tier kid (or any hula hoops for that matter) : "the ready salted looked boring i wanted something fun with flavour" respect is higher then the moon. "I like the shape though" very true. as a kid at school i would put all of them on my fingers so you couldnt see my fingers at all and act like a king, but with the beef ones, if you had a cut on your finger it would sting like being stung like a killer hornet. "very dry and dont really taste of anything" hula hoops to be fair are probably the driest crisps ever, and bbq is probably the least flavourful ones, so i get why you say that. a no from both of you makes me cry though, i thought you would atleast rate it OKAY.
They're cakes not biscuits hence the name Ali your from the UK you supposed to give better descriptions of these you're acting like you've never seen them before.
cakes: viennese whirls: agree with everything you say, no futher comment. digestives: NOT A GODDARN CAKE ITS A BISCUIT. but yeah agreed with everything, no further comment. custard cream: ITS A BISCUIT AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. "it smells great" yes, no smell can beat a custard cream, except bread crust and petrol. no further comment bourbon,: guess what, ITS A GODDAM BISCUITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH "why is it called bourbon" - because it is. "I feel like they are a good tea dipping biscuit" yep! Last time I checked I think they were top 5 or 10 in most tea dipped biscuit! (cool fact i know) the bourbon was the first biscuit on the moon. marshmallow cake: you know its a good day when your at your nans and she has these. no further comment. Fox's fabulous cookies: ive had these but i cant remember what they taste like so no further comment. Jaffa cakes: yes. just yes. top tier cake. "its both a cake and a biscuit" NO IT IS NOT, IT IS JUST A CAKE, IT IS NOT A BISCUIT AAAAAAAAAAAH. you guys underrated these. IM DONEEEEEEEE bye its been fun! and yall got good taste!
That guy seems indian if I'm not wrong
Bourbon biscuits are vegan
Why do Americans have to compare to their country?
Just say if you like them. They are not like our chips, they aren't the same as our candy, they don't taste like anything in the US. Who cares. Just say if you like them or not. Americans always have to br in competition. Why?
How could you just show this nudity on camera 11:35 disgrace
A snakebite is two different types of booze mixed together. Not juice.
The drink he described is called a Diesel
@@shannondavison6689 I was just about to say that.
