Ja sam iz hrvatske i jako mi je čudno kada netko isprobava ono što ja jdem svaki dan.

Has anyone else noticed how people from Usa or Canada open bags differently? They rip off the whole side while Croats do it like Ivan did it, just pull it apart so the food doesn't spill out.

"Kraš" company is one of the best in the world.

Kako je cudno kad ljudi reagiraju na slatkise uz koje sam odrastao 😂

Zanimljivo je koliko te slatkiše ljudi vole i koriste generacijama. Ki-Ki se proizvodi od 1927. Životinjsko carstvo album je još iz pedesetih. Super stvari.

Domacica je keks koji se pojede od trgovine do doma😂😂😂

Zaboravili ste Cokolino. Sad sam 43 godine no bez Cokolina nemrem zivjeti

Omg, Napolitanke. I would crush an entire package when I lived there. Sooooo addictive. Love you guys 😘

nemojte mi po bronhiju srat

It's intetesting story about Jaffa waffles, and why It's called like that. But maybe even inventors of them doesn't know it. When I was kid, each orange had sticker Jaffa. Everybody thought it's only a brand. But truth is that in that time oranges were imported from Israel, where orange plantations were near harbour Jaffa or Jaffo. In that time, the first and only orange syrup was also called Jaffa. So today when you say Jaffa, you think about orange.

I am half Croatian and born in Canada. My wife is from Ecuador, she also can’t stop eating napolitanke. She told me to stop buying them because they are too addicting ! I like rice chocolate a lot . Years ago they used to sell packaged chocolate called Croatian passport. Each chocolate was rapped in foil with the picture of a Croatian city !

Sorry Sarah, but Bananko is amazing. I could eat like 10 of those

Nedostaje vam Bajadera, Ledena čokolada/bombonijera, Griotte, Dorina sa čokoladnim napolitankama, Linolada 😁

Hey, no Bajadera?! Cmon... you missed the best one

Mikado chocolate is delish. :D All my favorites, too. Tortica used to be my go to. Who can resist Napolitanke.

I found your channel because I was searching for a starting point to learn Hrvatski. My favorite tennis player is from Split & it frustrates me no end that there are _so_ many of his interviews I can't understand. I've discovered so much more, though, on your channel. I love your videos about exploring all the cities, what a beautiful country Croatia is! Where I live old things are just demolished, not cared for & respected like all the wonderful architecture in Croatia. I appreciate the videos w/ Baka & Dida & getting to know more about the people & the culture. I just want to hug them, they're both so genial! Your enthusiasm about the land you live in is a joy to see & I wish your family all the happiness in the world, thanks again! 😊

Watching this while eating kulen and slanina, priceless!

I still remember "boys" version of Životinjsko Carstvo (Animal Kingdom) - Cro Army. Basically it was the same chocolate but in camouflage wrapping and you got army pictures inside :D

Hello from Poland :) I like your bronhi and dorina 😁

The rice chocolate is sooo good! It was funny when you tried the Jaffa and hated it and he loved it 😂

As a Canadian, Bronhi is my FAVOURITE... there are some European stores in Ottawa where I buy them, and they're always devoured quickly!

Kakva zena! Lijepa, zgodna, simpaticna, slatka, pametna, draga, komunikativna, rodila troje djece, sa ljubavlju gleda u njega. Savrsena...

I don't know why, but this ended up in my recommendations, and I had to click. What an adorable video this was. I was laughing so hard while you two were trying Bananko! It is delicious to me and to most Croatians, but from some curious, curious reason, strangers do not like it, at all (I've seen other videos on tasting Croatian sweets, and people wholeheartedly agree with you). All the best! 😁

This was my childhood! Sweet memories...❤❤

About Ki-ki, have you know that in some packeges you can find green apple flavour and grape aswell!

She didn’t like bananko lol my favourite 😊

Nije bez razloga Sarah imala nadimak "napolitankica", kako ju dobro poznajem, na kvizu bih pogodila za bananko i jaffa!

THE PROBLEM WITH ADULTS TRYING CANDY FOR FIRST TIME IS THAT EVERYTHING TASTES MORE EXCITING TO A KID SO I FELT KIND OF BAD I THINK HIS FEELINGS WERE A BIT HURT CAUSE THESE CANDIES ARE HIS SWEET CHILDHOOD MEMORIES

The "cookie soup" is still my favourite dessert!

i always asked my mom to buy me vau vau in pharmacy... i used to say my mom that i want to take them as vitamins because they are sold in pharmacys hahaha and i would eat them all straight away

Bananko banana vrh ! idem si sad kupit 10 komada.

Now I get why you (lady) can speak it so well. Your hubby is a local. Zdravo, brate. Pozdrav iz Stona...

What are you talking about, I'm 26 and I still love Kiki.

Excellent video. You nailed it guys! I would like to tell you that when I was a kid (in the 80s) we had special way of eating Jaffa cakes; first you eat the edge all around the jelly part, then you peal the jelly off, eat the chocolate off, then you eat the biscuit. Jelly is saved to be eaten last. 😁 Also, we used to eat “štapići” in such way that we nibbled the half of štapić along the entire lenght. It was a kind of competition: to nibble all the way without breaking it. 😄

🙋‍♂️ Ljep pozdrav, vidim kad ste se tako namučili, zaboravili ste se odmoriti uz jedan "Kavabon" sve najbolje Vam želim i ljepo pozdravljeni 👍🇭🇷🇸🇮🇭🇷🇸🇮👍

Bronhi - izvaljuje plombe u Hrvata već 50 godina. :D

i LOVE all of those snacks, but then again I'm slovenian, so I basically grew up on those. haha.

You two are Such fun and very helpful with our every growing grocery list for our first Croatia trip 👏👏🙋‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️that is in four days. The funniest part is we have researched organic grocery stores for our shopping yet clearly, we simply CAN NOT miss trying much of this list, perhaps from a different grocery! Thank you for all these fun ideas for snacks! And for making us smile as we watch you!

here´s a little summer tip: I keep the Jaffa cookies in the fridge!! Deliscious! :P My kids love them both ways (yes, me too still). Also, have you tried Munchmallows? That is the ultimate croatian childhood sweet/cookie for me :)

Ako su obične napolitanke addictive, ove nove sa čokoladnim waferima i mliječnom kremom su crack. Ako ne pazim, smlatim cijelo pakiranje u pola sata.

Omg,moje djetinjstvo,mladost...Ivane,i ja sam tako jela Petit kekse,u mliko nadrobit i evo doručka!!! Od srca hvala na ovom videu...moji klinci sada isto to sve vole,bez kikia i životinjskog carstva ,nismo!!! Lp iz Luxembourga

Napolitanke i Cedevita forever!! ❤️❤️❤️ Pozdrav iz Njemačke

Cedevita bonbone ste zaboravili, vrh su odmah uz kiki

I like bananko,and moto cokies,and also I like kviki gric.It's my favorite💛

Today I was eating Tortica after a long time and realized it's the same thing as Čokoladne napolitanke.

Such videos are always fun and this one deserves part 2 cause there are some quintessential things missing here like Bajadera, Griotte, Jadro napolitanke, Munchmallow, Medeno Srce just to name the few :)

Meni najbolji petit keks 😄 pogotovo kad ga namažeš Linoladom 😋😋😋

I remember visiting Nonna end have those cookies with milk. Mmm

foreigners usualy flip when they try bronhi for first time. good job and i dont understand people who dont like bananko. also he must really love you to just let you destroy that jaffa cake.

Great vid, love you guys

This channel (and this video) is incredible. What you are doing here is fantastic, this is a wonderful way of promoting Croatia, our nature, history, people, and in this case, our products :) if you go to bigger stores like Super Konzum, Kaufland, Plodine and others I am afraid you would need at least one hour video to make a review of all of our products (from Kraš, Zvečevo, Kandi and others) :) keep up the good work, I hope this channel will continue to grow, this is amazing

Sve mi DIRAJ... Samo bronhi ne!! 😅😅😅 Mogu pojesti dvije vrećice ovoga od jednom koliko ga obožavam. 🤣🤣🤣🤣♥️♥️♥️ Pozdrav!!

Vi ste pravo otkriće! Obožavam! 🤗

My favorite are rum ploscice, vocne napolitanke, domacica, Kiki, mikado, dorina, ledene kocke, and many more greetings from your neighbour sLOVEnia

Canadians are really nice. Giving high points to something they don't really like, that's really nice

Ruuuum😭 ja živim u Njemačkoj i mnogi mi ne vjeruju, ali poželim hrvatske slatkiše

Fun video! I tried to remember the items and picked up a couple I thought were on the list. Domaćica cookies (limited edition) were on sale. Haven’t cracked them open yet because they’re “special”, lol. And I thought I was buying the black liquorice and mint chewy candies but they weren’t... they are Laringo Peppermint & Kadulja (sage) candies by Kandit. Jako dobro! I recommend them :)

ça fait plaisir ce genre de vidéo... Merci a vous ! :)

Omg! Rice choc my fave!! And my kids live it too I'm!! I'm from Oz and all relo's send this back home to us when anyone visits ❤❤❤

mmm loved having the Napolitanke as a climbing snack! so yummy! ... and definitely remember the kiki bonbons being popular with the kiddos;)

You make miss Croatia so much those treats were so my childhood , my kids now love them all . We live in Australia and we can buy most of them … can’t wait to go back again . Thank you ❤️😜🥰😍😎

Dobri ste ,želim vam puno sreće !

Aaaaaa BAJDERA😍 ?! Klara Cao Cao, Griotte, Dorina čokolada, ledene kocke, runolist čokoladice, Jadro napolitanke... itd...itd

Predivno. Dobro došli u Hrvatsku💜❤

Where is pepermint candy with chocolate from Kraš?! By the way Bronhi is my favourite and Domacica could live on those for the rest of my life.

505 sa crtom😊😊😊😊 najbolji tvrdi bomboni uz šumi ššš jabuka

Everyone who was born in Yugoslavia knows kras is a top notch!!! Greetings from Slovenia east europe not stupid west Europe hahaha

I'm a Serb, but I grew up in Yugoslavia (born in 1976), so most of these candies were a part of my childhood too. I'll give my perspective, with few remarks. Important note is that I grew up in a smallish town (15-20k people) in Montenegro: 1. 505 sa crtom - was very popular, always marketed on TV, but I never tried it. I'm not sure it was even sold in my town in 1980's. But I remember many grandmas had a tin can with "505 sa crtom" label where they kept their coffee or sugar. But, again, I never saw this sold in my childhood. I never liked hard candy, though, so I was sad for this.. 2. Bronhi - was not a fan as a kid, as Ivan said, it was mainly popular with older people. In Serbia we have "Negro" brand, which is almost the same as Bronhi. It is good, but still not my cup of tea. 3. Mikado - and other rice chocolates, I LOVED those, and I still do. I don't eat it for health, I like the taste, the smooth crispiness.. 4. Kiki - hands down, a favorite with all the kids of my generation. If I remember correctly, though, there were only two tastes/colors then (yellow and rose one), and you didn't know which one you'll get when you unwrap the candy, because the wrapping was the same regardless of flavor. 5. Rum pločice - always loved it, because I love every candy with rum in it :) 6. Životinjsko carstvo - loved it very much, not so much because of the chocolate, but because of the sticker. Now, there comes again the "small town" part. We could not purchase the album in our town, I even thought it was a legend the album even exists. 7. Bananko - I'm not sure I ever tried that one, but I guess it is similar to other "chocolate bananas" like Štark's "Bananica". I loved these, and I still do. I noticed that people from other countries never liked them in many YT videos with trying foods, so I guess it is something you grow with. 8. Moto - loved it, not my favorite, but still good. I used to pick the filling from the hole in the middle with my index finger, and only when I eat that, I would proceed to the rest of the cookie. 9. Tortica - I don't remember this candy as a part of my childhood, I tried it recently, and I don't like it. 10. Napolitanke - everybody loves napolitanke. My favorite filling flavor was lemon. In those time it was lemon or cocoa filling. 11. Pettit beure - loved it, not biggest fan, but I liked to dip it into water, and eat it when it swells and softens. 12. Rondo C - never tried it, and it didn't exist then. There was Rondoment from Pliva company (I think), which was my favorite candy, but it was discontinued long ago. It had a taste similar to Wrigley's spearmint, only a little sweeter. 13. Vau-vau - I never saw these. 14. Jaffa - my favorite cookie, but from "Crvenka" brand, I didn't even know that Kraš has it's own variant. The orange jelly was my favorite part :). I say WAS, because they are not the same quality now 15. Domaćica - meh, I usually didn't refuse it, but I was never eager about it. 16. Bobi - didn't like it, "Smoki" from "Štark" was much better - crispy but soft and full of peanut parts. Now "Smoki" tastes exactly like "Bobi" tasted back then. Shame. 17. Saltas - I never saw these. As a kid "Prima" - Soko Štark was the most popular. But I always liked pretzel sticks, and still eat them often. There are many other brands.

OMG i miss my childhood days so much😢😢😢😢

Jadro keksi na prvom mjestu a onda slijede napolitanke , odličan video volim vas gledati

Hvala!

Jaffa 💕 I remove the biscuit and I eat only the jelly.. sooo gooood 🤩 also Kiki and Bronhi ahhhh 💕and Rondo C and Vau Vau and Pez and 505..now those are candys 🔝 I say no to the tea cookies 😬 any kind of tea cookies ✋ I just like fruit flavors 🤗

awesome!

im from Poland and my mim actually managed tk get me mikado chocolate and even tho im not a fan of rice i literally loved that chocolate

Tysm for trying our snacks hope you like them xd

my NZ partner loved all these

Oh I love Mikado, they’re so addictive, and Kiki and of course Napolitanke. I was obsessed w kiki as a kid too

Merry Christmas, i hope you like our snacks 🇭🇷♥️🇨🇦

Svaku večer pojedem duplo pakovanje Jaffa keksa i tako godinama! Nemogu virovat da ih ne voliš!? Pozdrav iz Splita! Odlični ste!

Omg i love aall of this snaaaaaaaaaackd

Mislim ja ovo sve jako volim jer sa odrastao uz to, ali mi je ok tuđe mišljenje i mislim da stariji više vole jednostavnije kekse ili čokoladu.

Here in Serbia we have our version of Jaffa. When they changed recipe of that biscuit part I stopped buying it. Now it has too much additives to keep it fresh as long as possible and it has gummy texture I really don't like.

Ive been saying for years if Napolitanke were american product they would be popular like cocacola. So good, the best. I dont keep it in my house couse they are overly addictive. Chocolate napolitanke are premium product that belongs on shelfs with caviar.

Jaffa cakes are my absolute favourite biscuit....

The whole fridge is completely full from my kids playing with those stickers haha

Ledene kocke is nice. I also loved Ki Ki candies when I was a kid. And I like Bananko

Super video, jako ste slatki (kao i sve što ste probali ), nedugo sam baš poslije dugo vremena probao bananko i baš sam se razočarao, totalno su ga uništili, nije više onakav kakav je bio u mladosti, sad je dosta tvrd i gumast, nažalost postao je jedan od lošijih proizvoda, a cijenom je još uvijek najskuplji od istih drugih čokoladnih banana.

Sa ovakvim ocjenama ideš ti curo brzo za Kanadu!

In part two don't forget the best ones like Jadro, Bajadera, Cokoladne napolitanke and Kolumbo :D

I am from CROATIA and I almost every morning eat petit butter like you in a milk.

Prvi put da cujem da netko ne voli bronhi 😦 ili da pregrize bombon na pola 😂 ubacis cijeli bombon u usta i bok haha Imate sad zalihe slatkisa za nekoliko mjeseci 😁😁 uzivajte!

I love "čajne kolutiće" with my coffee or tea.

Nemoj tako pljuvat po Jafi, jafa zaslužuje 10/10

Bananko je zakon!

Kras, top products!

I loved Kiki in Croatia.

Baš čudno ja jedem ovo svaki dan,odrasla sam uz ovo a netko ovo tek isprobava!💜 pozdrav iz Splita

Napolitanke are my favourite. Can buy them in Canada at specialty stores such as European Deli shops or bakeries in southwestern Ontario. You can buy the Kras chocolate bars as well. Being Croatian-Canadian and growing up in Canada I agree with Sarah on just about all the snacks. So it must be a culture thing on flavours depending where you grow up that you would like some of the more Croatian variety of candies. Still my favourite are Snickers, Kit Kat and gummy bears, yum yum.

that synchronous move of hands at 10:54 had me in stiches :))
