@@trevorcook4439 from wikipedia: "Despite Australians using the term "chips" for crisps, Smith's called their product crisps until as late as 2003. They are now labelled as Smith's Chips." So it's not about the term being American, Australia calls chips chips in general. And I say that as someone who remembers the Gobbledok ads for Smiths.
Yep totally right as I did learn about exactly that in my genetics class at university. I love coriander but so many it's soap. So weird but in this context hilarious 😂 😃 sorry
@@Hudson316 They taste nothing like they used to they literally used to taste like a cross between a McDonald's cheeseburger, A burger King Cheeseburger and Mixed in with Dijon Mustard and honey flavoured chips dunno if you were alive back then 1990's or if you were alive when cheezels made the hoops and crosses.
@@helnbak9372 They had limited edition sweet and sour twisties a month or so ago, they were absolutely top-tier (as opposed to their 'twisted raspberry' and 'cinnamon donut' flavoured twisties which were an abomination)
Red rock deli honey soy chicken chips are the best. Yes I'm an Aussie 🇦🇺. So for me these are called chips but also we have hot chips. If you're an Aussie you will understand! 😂😂❤❤cheer's 🍻
I'd have to have an argument between Sweet chilli and honey soy, but, I gotta say, Honey soy hits different. I'm biased towards salt and vinegar, but straight out flavour wise, honey soy has it in the bag.
Those chips taste like soap to you because of the coriander (cilantro). Some people taste this herb differently and it tastes bad, like soap. Not everyone tastes this herb the same way.
Balsamic vinegar is made from grape juice, seeds and stems squashed together and aged for years in a barrel. White wine vinegar is made from fermented wine. Balsamic is fantastic, I can't live without it!! 😀 (pronounced "bahl-sammik").
One good way to have balsamic is to get some high end bread - sourdough or pane di casa; some high grade extra virgin olive oil; and an Italian balsamic. Cut the bread to make it dippable, dip it in the oil and balsamic, and enjoy….😊
The Italians are as particular in the process of making ballsamic as they are their wines. ( Only ever use white vinegar for cleaning now.😂 ) Balsamic is the best!!!! Mixed with soy sauce to dip Asian dumplings. 😋😋😋
To get what a real Toob tasted like go to coles get their special cheeseburger sauce get your Dijon Mustard and honey chips now get a bowl put the cheeseburger sauce in it and dip the dijon chip into it like it is a dip.
Imagine not knowing who Poh is! Just kidding JT. Poh is a chef who was on Masterchef Australia as a contestant and is now a judge on the show. She is iconic!
We used to have Red Seal tomato chips. They were to die for. But the small company closed. We have one tomato flavoured chip now but it's pretty ordinary.
The chef special flavours aren't good at all. Ive hated them all. The original flavours in the smaller bags you got are great. Sadly you missed their S tier sweet chilli and sour cream. Damn they are the best, even better then honey chicken
Someone needs to send in more of the chefs selection red rock ones, there’s a caramelised onion and Angus beef one that’s really nice, an applebox smoked butter and sea salt one, and a chicken with garlic and sweet soy. (Poh was a runner up on like season 1 or 2 of master chef Australia aaaages ago and spun that off into a tv chef career) Then you’ve got the weird stuff that is fun for confusing people, like Camembert & Fig where the chip is kinda sweet but still tasty. I used to show up to D&D sessions with weird chip flavours trying to convince the other players to try them. Also Smiths aren’t quite the same as Lays/Walkers, I think. Pretty sure those here are Thins, but it’s close
@@gailstevens6831 They've got a big stack of the Fig & Brie kettle chips at my local supermarket on clearance cheap-ish so they might be on the way out again, I don't know if I've seen the camembert ones in a bit
My favourite chip flavour is the Smith's double crunch cheesy garlic bread. Honey soy chicken is definitely one of the best, but the cheesy garlic bread is so delicious.
Pretty certain this guys never really veered far from a western palette. He’s definitely the archetype of why Asian restaurants have to alter their menu
Smith's crisps are British crisps that are sold in Australia and owned by an American company (Pepsi). Lays are American that own Walkers crisps through a buyout, the two brand logos merged together and why they look similar (also owned by Pepsi). But originally Smith's crisps are a completely different brand/company to Lays because they started making/selling crisps before Lays was a brand/company, also both being older companies/brands than the Walkers crisps brand/company.
I know you said you guys have cheddar as a flavour that's a bit naf, but I do recommend the Australian cheese and onion by Smiths. Red rock also do a chilli & sour cream that's good if you like the spicy stuff.
From memory Poh won a cooking show possibly MasterChef. I've never tried those chips but I always love seeing her cook. She has such an awesome personality and is very entertaining. Its a shame the chips are not good
@@Wallie8228yeah it was back in those early seasons of reality shows when even the runners up got careers, where a few years later even the winners vanished into obscurity
We have lays chips too light and tangy is my favourite flavour. Smiths are your basic potato chips traditional flavours. Red Rock Deli is made by Smiths it's the fancy line. Got to love chicken salted things MSG "Makes Stuff Good" I call these potato chips and French Fries are hot chips.
I’m a Brit living in Australia. Do I count twice? Seriously though, good to see you trying some Aussie stuff. The food is pretty good here and I’ll quietly concede that some Aussie snacks are better than the British originals. Like Penguin chocolate biccies are good but Tim Tams are amazingly good, and I even prefer Vegemite to Marmite. Hope to see you do some more Australia reactions, and if you react to Australian football you’ve got to do that with Anna because I want to see the looks of your faces. This video is a good starter: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u_SqfNNfhmM.html
There’s more flavours in red rock deli I love red rock deli lime and black pepper and my favourite is sea salt and balsamic vinegar. Not a fan of Thai lime and chili or whatever that was 😂😂. Never tried the one with Poh on it. She’s from master chef.
As others have said I bet the soap flavour on the beef chips came from coriander/cilantro. It's to do with some gene. I can't eat anything with monk fruit sweetener as it tastes horrible to me, again its some taste receptor gene. The Thai Chili & Lime is my husbands favourite. I'm not a fan of it. These fancy chips you either love or hate I think.
He has jumpies, but no twisties, burger rings or Toobs??? Jumpies are no where near as popular as the rest, I was suprised he had a pack. Smiths are not the aussie version of lays. Thins are the aussie version of Lays. Smiths are always crinkle cut, where thins are.... thin...
So with that bag of red Rock deli things: they are limited flavours, they always suck. Chicken is a standard. Chilli is a standard. Once it says something like "rendang" or "chef" it's gonna be terrible.
You don't like cilantro (coriander to us) do you? There is a gene thing you either have or don't that makes you taste it in a different way, it either tastes refreshing and delicious, or like soap, I'm in the soap category too. Weird huh?
TRAITOR! Nah I'm kidding 😂 cool to see you compare. Might get you some arabian version of Lays while I'm out here as they have different flavours again, spicey, just what you like! 😁 thanks for another video, keep up the great work, you're doing amazing! ❤
A small percentage of the population has DNA that makes coriander (cilantro) taste the same as soap. The rest it tastes lovely. I guess you fall on the soap side.
Chips. Hot chips and chips. Smiths are not Lays. Beef Rendang has coriander/cilantro, and you obviously have the gene that makes it taste terrible. I do, too.
