We have those flake chocolates on icecream. But it's a Mr Whippy icecream in a cone (the ones you get from vans) and with lots of strawberry sauce and nuts. The chocolate tastes soooooooo good with that icecream because it sort of balances eachother out.
I've watched many American people eating British snacks. Don't ask me why lol it seems I'm entertained by it. A friend likes watching youtubers unboxing things which I thought was weird lol. Now having watched this I found it hilarious as well as entertaining. Elise your brilliant and thank you for giving me my fix Ha!!! 😂😂🤣🙌
As a kid at school in the early 1970’s my Mom would give me some money so at break time at school every day there was what we call a ‘tuck’ shop and I would buy snacks😍 It would be crisps, a chocolate biscuit and 2 Tunnocks Tea Cakes and pop I explain So 1 packet of Walkers Ready Salted crisps 1 Chocolate biscuit either a Breakaway or Penguin or Kit-Kat or similar I really recommend you get hold of Tunnocks Tea Cakes👍 Tunnocks Caramel Wafer👍 Tunnocks Snowballs👍 I used to regularly buy Skips👍 I used to regularly buy Custard 👍 Creams and once you opened the packet they were GONE And same with Cadbury Flakes👍 Also wine gums but I was never a fan - taste👎 and they were too chewy The issues of Obesity As a kid I would eat lots of crisps, sweets, chocolate and dinner cooked in fat BUT every kid walked to school at least twice a day (very few people had cars) I lived near school so I would come home for lunch so it would be 4 times a day When you got home from school you did your homework and then would go running all over the local park with my friends and more so in the summer 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😍😍
Totally agree. People are getting fat because they barely leave the house now. We never had the entertainment to stay in so chasing each other as part of some type of game was a 7 day a week activity for me.
I have just discovered your channel, Elise. Thanks for your enthusiastic pallet! Last time I spent more than 48 hours in Britain was 20 years ago. However, I attended junior prep in London for six years, up to age 13, so I recognised a few of your selections. Rice pud was a Sunday staple pudding at school, so my memories of it are mixed. Cook used to add raisins and a touch of nutmeg to it, though, which made it better. Hopefully I'll get to the UK again soon, as three of my sons are currently either working or studying in London, Edinburgh, and Somerset respectively. BTW, from which part of the US do you hail?
Terrys chocolate orange is traditionally given to kids in the stockings at Christmas because there’s so much of them one ball will last for at least 10 minutes. Enjoy
I love a Terry's chocolate orange, I love skips, custard creams and bourbons. I love any British biscuit. But you NEED to try irn bru and Tablet from Scotland!
Practically all sweet biscuits are designed to dunk in tea trust me on this as a Brit, they turn even the most humble of biscuits into a taste sensation. Tea prep if you don't have a pot. Get the best loose leaf or a strong British blend Tea in a bag, use two for extra strength brew. Refer to the instructions on loose leaf as they vary and blend depending as in using boiling water or 90°c. For bag's. Boil water in a kettle or saucepan. Use around two and a third the volume of the Mug / Cup make sure it's a big cup / mug. Once boiling fill the mug with water, leave ten to fifteen seconds so the cup / mug is hot. Tip out Place Tea bag / bags in the mug and fill with boiling water slowly untill 80% full. Stir and leave for 3 minutes. Remove bags squeezing them a little or lot strength of desired Tea. Add a splash or 1% or 2% Dairy Milk not 3% At this point you can add sugar if you want but you're eating biscuits so no need in my book. The remaining water discard or use to top the Cup up if you made the tea a little too strong, Miners teas like Welsh or Yorkshire are best for dunking biscuits. Enjoy x
You need to dip the custard creams in tea… that’s when the flavour comes alive. Skips are great but you missed out on the rice pudding! That is just heavenly, you can have it cold or hot.
There is a website called British Corner Shop that i use to send snacks to my Texan girlfriend. Lol i'm 42 i still can't eat a flake without making a mess. Other snacks i recommend are a bar of Galaxy, Cadburys Wispa, Cadburys caramel, Roast beef Monster Munch, and both Mr Kipling Almond slices and lemon slices.
You need to try Walkers crisps too. I understand from my gf they are similar to a brand you have called Lay's, but our flavours are very different. We have have cheese and onion, salt and vinegar, prawn cocktail, roast beef, Worcestershire sauce, roast chicken, smoky bacon, according to my girlfriend she had never come across those crisp flavours before and loved all, she loved the Worcestershire sauce and prawn cocktail the most, but i hope you get to try them all.
a lot of sweet treats I enjoyed in my youth are no longer mainstream but you can get from speciality sites ==== sarsparilla sweets, pear drops, flying saucers, liquorice sticks (the proper wooden ones), metropolitan chews, gobstoppers, lemon sherbots, aniseed balls etc
Recently I tried some roast pork and apple flavour sensations crisps and baked cheese and honey sensations crisps they're limited edition and won't be around for long term
@Elise Brulotte it's called a 'brew' not a 'cuppa' and cuppa-brew is to imply a cup of tea perfectly 'brewed hence "I've just got in from work and need a bloody 'BREW' :)
you will have to come to the UK and eat all the foods.. (i love these videos as a lot of the foods here we are so used to that we dont feel it, but seeing a video of someone trying it and the delight reminds me of my first time)
Try the jam and cream Viennese fingers much nicer. I like to put skips on my tongue and let them melt. Chocolate orange is the only chocolate my son will eat. He would rather have a piece of fruit.
Just found out there's a Gobstopper candy store in the UK that stocks all American foods 😋. Yeah until you get to the till and find out its £16 for a pack of Fruit Loops.. no thanks
Would recommend the jam wagon wheels worst British drink ovatine in my opinion not sure if available in USA best biscuits worth a try is viscount or after eight mints chocolate
Welcome to the chunky side of English grub 😂. Try a Cadbury delight bar.a double decker and a ripple. Crisps go for flaming hot monster munch or beef hula hoops.. And it's pronounced CADBRY.. even though it's spelt Cadburys.. Much love from across the pond
Myself and Elaine enjoyed your British Snack channel, but snacks aside we both thought you sound like and have the mannerism of Taylor Shift the music star, do you sing at all, have you tried singing Taylors songs as you could possibly sound like her, seriously I'm a musician & if you talk sound like someone then maybe. Best wishes with the show from John & Elaine.
0:54 WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER JUNIOR DOUBLE TRIPLE WHOPPER FLAME GRILLED TASTE WITH PERFECT TOPPERS I RULE THIS DAY, LETTUCE MAYO PICKLE KETCHUP ITS OK IF I DONT WANT THAT IF POSSIBLE A BACON WHOPPER ANY WHOPPER MY WAY AT BK.
you need to cleanse your pallet in-between jumping from one taste straight to another...especially savoury straight after sweet... drink some water in-between at least
I find it really funny that Americans think that chocolate like cadburys is really good quality. I mean compared to American chocolate, yes! But compared to actual real good chocolate then no. Cadburys etc is predominantly sugar and milk , hardly any cocoa
