Time for a food adventure from my home state of New Jersey where Heather discovers we do at least one thing astronomically better than in the UK!

Thank you so much for watching! Hope you enjoyed it!
If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make weekly "comedy" videos every Sunday evening. As an American living in London I love noticing the funny differences between the cultures and one of my most popular video series is my British VS American one. I'm also known for making terrible puns so sorry in advance. Hope to see you around, and I'll see you next Sunday! :)
If you want to know HOW I make my videos including gear, lighting, all the tiddly bits that connect it all together, (with cheaper alternatives and kit I used to use), I've listed each item, what it's great at, and why I use it on the gear section of my website here:

@adrianamo819 День назад

The FDA regulates what you can call the products based on ingredients and nutrition facts. Legally, ice cream must contain a certain % fat content (and cream) to be labeled as such in the US. Gelato has a different % fat content, and custard has another (and egg yolks/eggs). This is why Dairy Queen is not ever referred to as ice cream, it’s soft serve. They’re not legally allowed to call it such.

@pjschmid2251 День назад

I was thinking the same thing. Soft serve ice cream is dairy queen. Frozen custard is Culver’s and they aren’t the same thing. To be considered frozen custard it has to contain 1.4% egg yolk solids by weight. Dairy queen would not qualify nor would most soft serve ice cream. Frozen custard is superior in my opinion.

@triscuitbiscuit 19 часов назад

@StewedFishProductions 14 часов назад

TBH: I believe the closest English foodstuff to American 'Scrapple' would be 'haslet' _(especially "Grasmere Farm" 'Lincolnshire Haslet whole meat loaf')_ - Several other butchers sell haslet loaves on-line. You can also buy sliced haslet in Tesco, Morrisons and ASDA. Although no longer made with the pork offal etc. of traditional haslet, when sliced it does look similar to the scrapple they were eating. OR: Look up videos on YT of how to make 'home-made' Lincolnshire haslet. If you have never eaten it, give it a go, its great for a Ploughman's Lunch or a 'cold meat' selection. 👍👍👍 😋

There's no comparison between a fresh tomatoes and a store bought tomatoes. Most tomatoes in grocery stores are actually "hot house" meaning grown in greenhouses. They don't get the sunlight and they can grow year around. The only ones that are fresh are the vine ripe tomatoes. Which the stores always charge more for them instead of other tomatoes. I love tomatoes, but I won't eat them on anything unless they are fresh tomatoes.

@miriamrobarts День назад

Most grocery store tomatoes (out of necessity) are varieties developed to ship & store well -- unfortunately at the cost of flavor. They're likely to be picked prematurely for the same reasons. I live in a hot-summer Mediterranean climate, so tomatoes love it here. I'm guessing if someone lived in a colder zone, but had a backyard greenhouse that got warm enough (or grew indoor with grow lights), they could grow great tasting heirloom tomatoes, too.

These are now much more consistent than before and on the shelves all year round, but they are also very much sweeter, with a consequent loss of the background tomato flavour. At times it can be difficult to find the old standard tomatoes, which have become "salad" tomatoes and as for the larger "beefsteak" tomatoes, best of luck finding them in a UK supermarket these days!

When you said you were going to get more fresh, natural food I was hoping you were filming in summer -- for peak Jersey tomato season ❤, but at least there were still decent ones around. I'm so glad she liked NJ, and specifically GlouCo! 😊

"the first place we went the moment we entered New Jersey" is so real because whenever I fly into EWR I go to Wawa. God I miss PA and Wawa.

I worked for Hershey, in milk processing, for 40 years. The amount of cream diverted to shore points during summer months is incredible. 50 years ago, before commercial producers ruled the market, milk production would drop sharply during the heat of summer. Whole raw bulk milk would often be in short supply because the shore points in New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia demanded soooooo much cream for ice cream. I can think of no better fight. The production of our chocolate, not appreciated by Europeans vs some of the richest creamiest ice cream on earth!! Thank you for your time and special thanks to your girl friend for being the subject of detailed food experimentation! P.S. Bologna in Dutch country isn't that pale minced bologna stuff. Long live Seltzers sweet Lebanon bologna! Many Dutch folk will put syrup on their deep dark scrapple.

Diners are a way of life in NJ. Every event ends at the diner. Went to the movies? Go to the diner. Done at the bar at 2am? Go the diner (gotta be a Taylor ham & cheese on a hard roll). After church on Sundays? Diner.

The "soft serve" thing was interested. I grew up (in the 60s in the UK) eating "Mr Whippy" and it wasn't called "soft serve". At the time, normal ice cream was so hard that it had to be either sliced with a knife, or else left out of the freezer for a few minutes to soften up to the point where it could be served with a spoon or ice cream scoop. Then in the 1970s "soft serve" ice cream was introduced: this was normal ice cream that was just soft enough to be served from the tub with a spook or scoop straight from the fridge. The suggestion that Margaret Thatcher worked on the team that invented soft serve, was not about her inventing Mr Whippy style ice cream. These days, you can't get that really hard ice cream, so the term "soft serve" has evolved to mean Mr Whippy style ice cream.

Of course, in the 60s very few households had a freezer and most domestic fridges had at-best a very small ice-tray. If ice cream was being served in the home, it was bought from a local shop or cafe and kept in the fridge till use - maximum of a couple of hours later - by which time the hard frozen ice-cream softened to the point where it was easy to plate-up. The advent of larger freezer sections in our fridges created the demand for tubs of ice-cream that could be kept at home in a ready-to-use condition and hence the demand for a softer product. One of my early memories as a child in the mid 60's is my mother sending me down to the cafe for the ice-cream to have as dessert, while she was cooking the evening meal! Imagine a mother sending a five-year-old off to the shops on his own with a purse of coins nowadays!

@@rb9580 Same here (only it was the local shop). I lived in Brixton, and from the age of about 8 was sent to walk unaccompanied to school and back, half a mile away across Brixton and Streatham every day.

@mickb.8925 День назад

Very fun to see you introduce Heather to your childhood food. Also, pork roll looks to be very similar to "bakrol" here in Belgium! I like it a lot but I don't see many people eat it here.

As a Canadian, I was also very surprised when I encountered frozen custard in the US, and it was just apparently ice cream, but also can confirm that frozen custard slaps as an affogato. Also, as someone whose only experience of New Jersey has been an airport, my one prevailing memory of said airport was getting a black and white cookie. And at the risk of angering any New Yorkers reading this, the black and white cookie was good.

American grape flavour is the most vile flavour ever invented. It doesn't even taste anything like any grapes I know of and I've got grapes growing in my garden which are nice and sweet.

Scrapple! I don't even know how to spell it. Both my parents grew up in Lancaster County and so I grew up with Scrapple (in Baltimore). I'm vegan now, so my Scrapple eating days are over, but my mother just introduced my daughter to it on a recent visit. I am nostalgic for it. It's a home food. 🥰

@erikhughes8412 11 часов назад

Wisconsinite here, and we have the fourth largest Amish population in the US, so we have scrapple here as well. We also have frozen custard - which is NOT the same as "ice cream", because frozen custard has egg yolks, while ice cream does not. Frozen custard also usually has a higher butterfat content.

Shriver’s!!! I grew up going to Ocean City every summer and I used to stand in front of the Shriver’s window with my grandparents, watching the dolls (Taffy and Fudge) in the window do flips while my parents went inside to get our fudge. So nostalgic for me!!

I grew up in Franklinville but moved to upstate New York as a kid. This whole video was an absolute treat for me. Manco & Manco in OC, scrapple, farm markets, the BEST pizza in the world. Pork roll and saying arange instead of orange. South Jersey was the best spawn point possible lol
