I always have a slab of extra mature vintage cheddar in my fridge. I always thought the mild cheddar was too bland. Interested to see how that goes, haha.

Another awesome reaction girls!! I never liked Fanta but that English one definitely looked like Tang!! Tang was available in Australia in the '70s. Powdery and artificial. The ads said it was used by the astronauts in space!! Don't know how true that was!!

Hello Ladies. I really love your reactions to our confectionery and savouries. I think you are very brave tackling the unknown as once in your mouth like it or not you just have to suffer or enjoy!! Personally there wasn't very much that I particularly like except the Aero which I just love to let the choc melt on my tongue. I find much of confectionary far too bland and sickly compared to years ago. I'm sorry to say to two lovely American ladies that our chocolate, biscuits and cakes tasted much better before American companies bought out our British manufacturers. Bounty bars were bigger, chunkier and the coconut filling rather like yours. As for the cheese and pickle I'd like to give you 10 out of 10 for your bravery as I hate pickle chutney and strong cheese so for me I give it a big fat zero. Just keep an eye on your body fat ladies! Cheers!

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

@Valerie Jackson Which is strange that you like it less since American companies bought it, as they taste nothing like our stuff. No idea what they did...

[@bethcushway458]

Fantastic reaction lovely ladies. We actually used to have Fanta like you when I was a kid, exactly that orange colour and made with full sugar but then they banned the colourings because they're carcinogenic and now because of this stupid sugar tax we've got artificial sweeteners in everything. Nothing tastes like it did when I was a kid. I agree with removing the colourings but they should give people autonomy on how much sugar they want to eat/drink.

Dandelion and Burdock has been around since the 1400's. It was originally a simple Mead made from the root of the two plants in it's name and was supposed to have health benefits.

I was brought up with Fox's biscuits - my Grandma used to work in the factory - and the smell of their ginger biscuits drifting across Batley (the town where they are located) was almost as good as their taste. They now have a factory shop open to the public where you can get bags of 'mis-shapes' for a fraction of the price but they still taste just as good. As for Aero - made in Halifax, also in West Yorkshire - they're so good to pop a chunk in your mouth and just let it dissolve on your tongue. Even better for that is the Cadbury's Wispa.

I agree with you about the artificial sweetener, literally all the soft drinks and squashes in the UK now have sweetener in them and like Natasha I can taste it afterwards, it isn't just drinks either lot's of frozen foods have dextrose which is a sweetener or preservative. All the Kipling products have Dextrose as well. I get a metal taste after I having eaten anything with sweetener in it.

[@Lazmanarus]

Dextrose is an actual natural sugar, it is chemically similar the sucrose & is found in corn syrup among other things. Sucralose is an artificial sweetener and sugar substitute. The majority of ingested sucralose is not broken down by the body, so it is noncaloric. In the European Union, it is also known under the E number E955.

Of course, Fanta is a soft drink originally developed in Germany on the orders of the NSDAP (Hitler's National Socialists) as a replacement for Coca Cola after the US drink became unavailable. It was first created using carrot juice. Aero peppermint is very good too. From my schooldays in England (58-63), I only remember Tizer and Penguin from your sampling hoard. Our school tuck shop had both of those - though Tizer was in bottles and Pengins were sold individually for 2d (one cent in today's US money).

I speculate that the original German Fanta used carrot juice because they were short of sugar during the war. I went out of my way to try German Fanta when I visited Berlin about five years ago, but without having my usual Fanta to compare it with I was unable to tell the difference. (My standard Fanta is the New Zealand version, but I very rarely drink it. No idea how it compares with the UK or US versions.)

[@RichardGadsden]

In the UK, they have to pay additional tax if they put more than a certain percentage of sugar in a soft drink, which is why so many cut the amount of sugar under 5g/100mL (e.g. Fanta is 4.6g/100mL) and added artificial sweeteners to keep up the level of sweetness. The exception is Coca-Cola, which still has the full sugar (10.6g/100mL) and no sweetener. A lot of Americans comment that UK Coke tastes like Mexican Coke (because it's sweetened with sugar instead of corn syrup).

Branston also do a version of their pickle called “Small chunk” where the ingredients are chopped more finely, ie the chunks are about 1/10” (2 - 3 mm) across.

Love Tizer. Hard to come by now , seems to only be found in some "corner shops". Reminds me of my grandma, she would always have the glass bottles of it dropped off by the milkman. Can't get it in glass bottles anymore. Used live about 3 miles from one of Barr factories that made it thats since shut down

[@sjbict]

Tizer is in supermarkets cans and 2ltr bottles Try Tescos and Asda Co-op Spar

The difference between a Kit-Kat and a Timeout, is that Kit-Kats have cream between the wafers and Timeouts have flaked chocolate between the wafers.

There are two variations of Branston Pickle - the original and Branston Sandwich Pickle which has smaller chunks of vegetables and easier to apply on a sandwich.

[@DamianIbberson]

Branston also do a smooth pickle (no chunks) in a squeezy bottle!

[@robsharman3713]

@@DamianIbberson Not the same without the crunch, Damian. If it's going to be crunchless, it's got to be HP sauce!

@@robsharman3713 totally agree with you but there must be a market for the smooth one!

Hey ladies. I think the idea for buttering bread came around so the bread didn't get soggy when adding certain fillings. So basically acting like a barrier. Cheese and branston pickle on crackers is way better than on bread in my opinion. But Fanta or tango orange on a nice sunny day after a portion of pie and chips, or fish and chips. Heaven!!! 😋

I didn't know about the sugar tax nor that artificial sweetners was replaced/added. I can't handle artificial sweetners. We export a fair bit of sugar in Australia so farmers likely lobby government not to tax it though some call for one. We have the normal & 'diet' pop which is the artificial stuff. I don't blame the girls for not liking drinks with a combination, they wouldn't taste the same as straight sugar. I love Branston/cheese on bread or crackers. Butter enhances the experience as long as its the real thing, not spreads or marg.

It's always genuinely interesting to see Americans reacting to British Food. I've never had anything from the US before, so I'm kinda jealous that you get to have that kind of experience.

[@bluesilvahalo3576]

I think those Mr Kipling cakes have suffered from the journey, they should be soft and light never chewy, could tell something wasn't right when you tried to break it

[@TheNatashaDebbieShow]

That's very possible

[@MrCalland]

Yeah normally they are very soft cakes shame they didn't do good getting to you.

Somerset is the county in England, UK where the cheddar gorge is. The original hard cheddar was aged in caves along the gorge and in surrounding areas. The Barbers is one of the craft artisan cheeses. A lot of mature (strong) cheddar is sold in the UK. Branson pickle is the best companion to cheddar, we do a small chunk version which is best for sandwiches, original Chunk is for crackers, butter, cheese then a small amount of pickle. Cheese on Toast with Branson is yummy. Lilt/Fanta/Dandelion and Burdock are revolting! We have sucralose in our drinks because we have a sugar tax designed to increase awareness of sugar in foods and reduce purchases.

[@voodooacidman]

growing up, the fox's classic was our family treat of choice! and you guys should try alcoholic dandelion & burdock! keep up the great work guys! big love to all people :)

Bounty bars come in chocolate tins for xmas along with loads of other different chocolate bars but they are alot smaller than normal bars , and in every household across the uk , once everyone has finnished eating the mini chocolates out of the tin you will find all the mini bounty bars because nobody likes them , but at a young age i saw an opportunity and trained myself to like them so whilst everyone else in my family are fighting over the better chocolates i could fill my pockets with the bounty bars and no one would bat an eyelid. Always one step ahead😉😄

[@trevordance5181]

You must try the Peppermint and Orange Aeros aswell. Also try Fry's Turkish Delight, Mint and Orange Matchmakers, and Cadbury's Old Jamaica. By the way many British people, especially the older generation, pronounce Nestlé as Nestles.

[@Tellz02]

The only place can find Old Jamaica these days is in the small shop at my local hospital (20 mile round trip but worth it).The only good thing about a hospital visit apart from getting well again 😁

I should have said ‘Cheddar’ is a place in Somerset, England famous for the limestone caves and gorge cut through the local hills that made it ideal for cheese making as the caves were the same temperature year round. Cheddar is a place.

[@trailerman2]

Debbies pleasure when she ate the cheese and pickle sandwich was a picture ..... safe to say she liked it ?? 😂😂

[@nickball4071]

The best British cheddar comes from Cheddar in Somerset. Yes it's the birthplace of the cheese. Cheddar has a large network of caves that stay at a pretty constant temperature all year round and are still used today as a store to mature the cheese. If you ever come here you have to go during the summertime the hike up Cheddar gorge is great and the view from the top is something to behold.

[@chrisellis3797]

Natasha, did the cheese affect you and your lactose intolerance? I only ask as some USA travellers spending a few weeks in UK/Europe realised they weren't affected at all despite eating bread and cheese all the time. They considered whether or not it was actual intolerance to the food item or the amount of "extras" that are allowed into the US ingredients.

[@michaelgoodman7410]

Mannnnnn… my mouth was watering as you were making that cheese and branston sandwich

Not me adding penguins to my shopping list cause this gave me cravings 😂 Btw English Fanta uses actual orange juice as flavouring. The American one to use is super artificial flavour

I am not sure of the date of the chocolate cake slice but I have never had one that hard to break or chew I should’ve been a soft cream and yes the cheese and Branston looks about right perfect combination some would even put crisps plain salted with cheese in the sandwich me included

Hiya ladies. Will have to admit, we came across your page by accident, and my fella and I have spent almost 7 hours watching your videos which we think are brilliant! Can't wait to watch some more tomorrow. Thank you for entertaining us! We've liked and subscribed also. Sending best wishes from across the pond in Birmingham Xx

I don't remember the last time I had Dandelion and Burdock, but it's a taste that reminds me a lot of my childhood. Ginger beer is another that I've not had for a long time, too. Bounty's used to have a strip of card underneath them at one time. They've obviously dispensed with it now, for some reason. The tartness of pickle is supposed to be off-set by the creaminess of the cheese. I think the proportions of each has to be within a certain amount for it to work, though. Generally, I'd put the pickle on the cheese rather than directly onto the bread. Although, it doesn't really matter as you're placing another piece of bread on top to make the sandwich, anyway. I can't remember what Tizer tastes like, to be honest, it's been so long since I last had it.

Cheese and branson pickle is amazing. I had contractors at my work ( a hotel ) . they needed packed lunches made. My chef asked if I could get the list from the receptionist as to what they wanted in sandwiches. As I knew the chefs were very busy I started to work on the pack lunches. The lad who asked for cheese and pickle had shared with his work mates how good it was. By the end of the week I was stuck making all the packed lunches and nearly everyone of them wanted cheese and it had to be Branson. It really is amazing stuff.

Hi ladies I'm loving your reaction to British snacks, I am surprised that you had never tasted cheddar cheese before and had only tasted American cheddar which of course is not cheddar cheese but cheddar style cheese as cheddar cheese comes only from the area surrounding the Cheddar gorge and Cheddar valley in Somerset England .

[@MrEnseabee]

Hi Ladies, as usual, another great reaction. The only way we could get our 6 year old daughter to drink tea was to use a Penguin bar as a straw. It was difficult as you said, but she loved it so much, she still drinks tea this way at 23, and calls it the Penguin Plunge. Wouldn't it be boring if we all liked the same things the same way? Catch you next time.

I lived on cheese and Branston pickle sandwiches as a vegetarian in the late 1980's, early 1990's on what is called doorstop bread slices (bakery bread that is sliced at home so very thick and unevenly sliced!). You can get a sandwich version of the Branston which makes spreading it easier as the chunks are smaller. I prefer the standard on my sandwiches though. Dandelion and Burdock pop reminds me of my childhood in the 70's which we had from the 'popman' who dropped off glass bottles of different flavour pop and collected the empties the following week and you got money back for returning them
