I tried looking for crab flavored chips here in Michigan and no one sells them. Maybe that hammering and drilling is your cat secretly building a spaceship for you both to escape to the US. You could name it Kotnik I 😁
Well done. And yes, we do often eat chips with sandwiches in the US. Many times if it doesn't come with fries, a sandwich will come with chips. Sometimes they do this so they can then sell you a large drink. Thanks for sharing some of the snacks that are common to your country.
When I think of candy, I do not think of creatures which come from the sea. Of course, I rarely eat fish. Also, I must be strange, I never cared for potato chip very much. You should have showed us how much chips come in the bag. If it is like the US, there is about 1/4 chips and 3/4 air. Always nice to see you and learn more about beloved Russia!
I remember eating cottage cheese deserts back in Lithuania, when I was growing up in late 90s and early 2000s. Great memories! Can't find those in California. LOL.
I learned russian as an american and wanted to visit eventually but uh... not anymore obviously. Our government makes it sound like we'll be harassed or thrown in prison if we go there. So I appreciate these types of videos that show a more cultural side of things, a little window into something I won't get to see. Also, 3:20 -- what's with russian apartments and people in them always hammering and drilling shit, constant renovations like they have nothing better to do 😂 nothing to do on a sunday? install a new row of cabinets!
@@KittenYulia before the war I would have felt totally safe in russia, but with the amount of insane brainwashing on TV lately... you never know. Some drunk Z boomer would get me 😂
I was absolutely shocked to see Schweppes Bitter Lemon soda at airport in Moscow before I left to come back home to USA in Summer 2017. We have it here but it’s only available at a few places. Do you like Kvass?
that alyonka is #1 , ordered myself a few bars years ago because i play "escape from tarkov" and this choclate-bar is an ingame item of it. also nice to see the croutons, would like to see a more classic borodinskiy bread version :D
When I see your little icon pop up on my dreary screen, I KNOW it's going to be the highlight of my day. Drinking those canned drinks warm is something we don't ordinarily do in the old USA if possible....much nicer cold and fizzy..... Marsik sounds like he's tearing the corner off the sofa! Please take care and escape when you can.... you would be an absolute sensation in America, you would melt hearts wherever you go. Best wishes from Atlanta.
in Malaysia we eat the Dry Anchovy(smaller prefer) with aromatic Rice been cook coconut milk, side of onion garlic chili paste, and slice of cucumber. Local call the food Nasi Lemak.
“Remember that you ought to behave in life as you would at a banquet. As something is being passed around it comes to you; stretch out your hand, take a portion of it politely. It passes on; do not detain it. Or it has not come to you yet; do not project your desire to meet it, but wait until it comes in front of you." - Epictetus 121-180AD
I don't get the Eastern Europe affinity for dried or smoked fish. Also, as an American, we think Hershey's actually tastes like chocolate. When it's too creamy, it just tastes like chocolate milk. Cadbury's, a British brand, is this way. Dark chocolate is big here as well.
if you get a small sandwich at stores you usually get a small bag of chips to go with it and a drink , i crush my chips and put them on the sandwich . my grandmother taught me i can do it hot dogs as well .
Its not surprising Russians hold to quality standard in producing food! People who have low expectations about Russian brands can be pleasantly surprised.
defiantly eat the dried anchovies but don't get them in Scotland, dip it in mayo, there was a paste called gentleman's friend I loved a salty anchovies paste
so much to say ... 1. dried squid, yum! dried fish ... i think i remember eating that as a kid ... it's ... not all that hot, let's just say. 2. oh, you hit on one of my favorite pastimes which is to try different candies when I am travelling. 3. milk chocolate covered ... cottage cheese ? like, really? hmm ... i am not too sure about that but hey, if i so happen to wander into a Russian confectionary store, i will ask about it ... 🤔 4. i did know about the different types of fanta that is produced around the world. so when you are in the US/Canada, the fanta flavor will be different than those you can find in Russia. so i am not sure if you tried fanta when you where visiting NYC. Coke, even, goes through minor changes, like it is sweeter in some countries.
Yes I know that fanta in EU has more orange juice because of the laws, and in US it's sweeter, but honestly not so much difference. Cottage cheese dessert is one of the best things I can eat, so you should 100% try it, it may sound strange but it is amazing
I thought it was the concept of Subway. Even hear in Sweden. If you buy a menu in Subway you get the subway bread with a small bag of lays chips and soda. You can change the bag of chips to a cookie though. I really miss this dark bread with herbs and beer taste. When I go to Estonia I always buys this bread and eat it as candy.
Yes it is the bread I was talking about in the video, here in Russia they will never give you anything for free lol, so in subway you will see people getting sandwiches and a dusty stand with little packs of chips that cost 2 dollars lol
I don't know why People call Crisps Chips ? Yulia haha ... Crisps there Crisps ! Chips are chunky and still go in the frier but chip means chip, chunky, crisps are more like thin slices just incase anyone wondered but ill close the door on my way out haha
here its called чипсы, which sounds like chipsy, so I automatically call them chips. Also they are called like that in USA, but if I am going to live in UK then I will call them CRISPS
Probably from Russian Far East..Port Cities make sense since people forget most immigrants arrived by Sea.well past WW2 On East Coast same here but many are Russian Jews who don't cling to the old language. Especially here in Boston and New England Area. Its still real WASP'y here but we have lots of Highly Educated Immigrants from all over...Armenians, Greeks, Italian and Irish plus the usual Europeans now Brazilians, Indians and Taiwanese Chinese. Big University City so lots of International Students.
@@dank1518 You would not believe the Number of European Firms that have North American HQ in New England! And now they are expanding plants. The amount of Air Traffic from US and British Aerospace plants in this area heading to Europe is unreal as I have three Major Airbases in the area all heading out over the Atlantic C 5A C117 and C130 traffic intense at times.
Speaking of potato chips....the prices here have gone up like crazy. A bag of chips that used to cost 1.2 Euros can now cost 4.5 euros. Wtf :D Its soon cheaper to buy a sixpack of beer and beef jerky than chips.
Dear Julia, I like your videos. They always bring me joy and a smile to my face. And Marsik took part again. By the way, I like your New York T-shirt. It would be nice if you could make one of your next videos from there. Stay creative and optimistic.
Damn, that disclaimer in the beginning really lifts the spirits... I wish you all the best and hope you find a way to... _temporarily_ leave Russia soon. All the best from Germany.
i would send you some italin snacks if only i could🤣 here we don't have fish related snacks btw,it's so weird to have a fish like this and not eaten fresh
@@KittenYulia i never found dried fish in store...just fresh fish and in freezer... maybe you can find dried fish into chinese cornerstore...but we as italian... i don't think we eat dried fish :/
Indeed, there’s no surprise people are fat where they eat junk food. Yulia, stay away from such food because it makes you sick and fat. You may want to try Kombucha to drink which is delicious and probiotic.
