Cake bars are probably individually packaged because they are often included in people's/ children's lunchbox, so being individually wrapped provides the protection needed to stop them being smashed to pieces. Plus it keeps them fresher

[@84vintage]

Aussie here- Vegemite and Marmite are same in the way that you need to build up your tolerance to it. Once you get used to it’s flavour, saltiness etc you will start eating it in bigger portions.

[@jamiebrooks3864]

Marmite stopped me drinking beer! Nasty Vegimite I don't mind thanks to girl from Oz I used to flat share in Manchester with

[@marklee6516]

Marmite crisps are a good “gateway drug” to Marmite because they’re quite subtle. When people try Marmite for the first time they invariably use too much and also often aren’t expecting the flavour so the combination of unexpected flavour and way too much of it is just overwhelming. I’m a seasoned Marmite eater and often wince at the amount of the stuff I’ve seen people consume in their taste test videos 😅 the trick is always to start with as little as possible and build up your resistance over time, you know like people used to do with poisons 😂

Battenberg cake was created in 1884 as a wedding gift for Prince Louis of Battenberg and Princess Victoria (granddaughter of Queen Victoria) and paid tribute to England's newest royal family member by using his last name as the title of the confection.

[@wildwine6400]

The battenbergs are a sponge cake coated in apricot jam then wrapped in marzipan, which is essentially an almond flavoured icing

Don't be ashamed, Marmite will always get you in the end ;) Tbh a lot of people I see tasting Marmite for the first time use way too much so it's not surprising they hate it. It's a really powerful taste and very salty, the tiniest smear, size of a pea, smeared over butter or other spread works best. You also need to try Pink Wafer biscuits. They're crispy like the Caramel wafer biscuit wasn't and literally taste pink :)

There's a phrase in England, it's bit marmite. Basically means you either hate it or love it. Personally I hate the stuff.

[@_starfiend]

Blackcurrent and apple is a very common combination. The apple helps to reduce the bitteerness of the blackcurrent, and as you noted, adds it's own sweetness.

[@BigC1290]

Yes blackcurrants are typically very bitter and tarty

[@ThecovertCustomer]

Blackcurrant anything is my favourite flavour. It’s very popular here in the UK. Apple is often added to take the edge off the tartness off the blackcurrant. Plus blackcurrants are expensive and hard to get on their own in the UK so apple bulks out the blackcurrant so they can put less in.

Kipling Battenburg cake is covered in marzipan. Tunnocks bakery was established in Scotland in 1890 and is still a family run business on the same site. Their caramel logs are similar to the wafers but they are covered in toasted coconut and I’m surprised you haven’t tried Tunnocks Tea Cakes - a soft biscuit base with a bubble of soft creamy marshmallow surrounded in chocolate.

The Battenberg cake is covered with Marzipan!You didn't taste it? According to history, the first Battenberg cake was made in 1884, when Queen Victoria's granddaughter married Prince Louis of Battenberg (the alternating blocks of colour resemble the Battenberg crest). This traditional cake is very popular in Britain, and makes an eye catching afternoon tea snack.

As I know you do a bit of cooking I would just mention that jam tarts are really easy to make at home and you can obviously use whatever jam (err jelly) that you like best. When I make them for Christmas I use a cherry jam. Personally when I make them I use an unsweetened pastry base but I think all the commercial ones use a sweetened pastry. BTW Blackcurrant and Apple is a classic British flavour - it is pretty common.

[@highpath4776]

did you mean blackberry (dont forget US doesnt have Blackcurrent - History Guy tells me blackcurrent/redcurrent foliage is a vector for a fungus that destroys white pine trees so all the Blackcurrents were destroyed

[@susanashcroft2674]

Apple and blackcurrant is a regular combination in the UK and I guess just as the US is more used to grape flavoured products we have blackcurrant. We have things such as the tarts you tried, apple and blackcurrant pie fillings (or ready made pies), Robinsons do an apple and blackcurrant cordial (squash/ juice drink) which you dilute to taste with water. Not sure if you have tried Ribena yet, which is a blackcurrant juice? The cordial version (diluted with water) can be drunk hot or cold, there are Ribena juice cartons and carbonated soda drink versions too, but the cordial IMO is my favourite.

[@mzundastud07]

And if it’s NOT too late - you MUST MUST MUST try buttons that have been kept in the refrigerator - the “snap” yum! - then also when you eat them have a gulp of tea - and the chocolate melts 🙌🏼

[@smockboy]

The "pink" you're tasting with the Battenburgs is the combination of the marzipan (the almond-flavoured confection wrapped around it) and the apricot jam they use to bind the sponge and marzipan together.

[@littlemy1773]

You can get pink ones too tho. Where the marzipan is pink . Think they’re limited edition or were, haven’t seen them in a while. Now they really do taste pink 😂

[@smockboy]

@@littlemy1773 Oh yeah, I saw those. They switched out the apricot jam for raspberry jam and dyed the marzipan iirc.

[@ExpendableRedshirt]

Most people overdo Marmite. It's a very strong flavour and only needs very little spread on bread or toast to get the best out of it. When done right it just tastes savoury and a bit like dark soy.

[@ParcelOfRogue]

As a kid I recall first trying Marmite and hating it, but quickly learned to love it and eat it several times a week ever since.

[@catherineturner2839]

Marmite crisps are lovely, because the amount on them is controlled. Often when you try the actual marmite on toast etc you put far too much on. Marmite is lovely spread very very thinly, too much and it isn't good. Give marmite another try used very sparingly and you will probably like it

[@andrewcoates6641]

Try popping the Tunnocks Caramel bars into your fridge, so that it becomes snapable, it does make a difference, also try the same dodge with other chocolate bars especially with a Curly Whirly. Jammie Dodgers are available in alternative flavours, I think that the most common alternative is the Toffee kind , but I think that there’s a chocolate variety too and I don’t know if they are made by the same company or not but we also have a very similar biscuit that has a layer of vanilla cream surrounding the blob of jam before the second layer of biscuit is placed on top. I believe that they are known as the sandwich cream biscuit. I think that the reason why the Marmite crisps are so different in taste opposed to eating Marmite spread on anything else is because there’s so little of the Marmite added to the crisps. It’s actually more of an artificial flavouring that is used to give the Marmite taste, in much the same way that some of the meat flavoured crisps are marked as suitable for vegetarian or vegan consumers as there’s no actual meat in the product at all, they are flavoured with a chemical cocktail to make the consumer think that they have been eating a meat product.

The reason many people (‘rookies’) don’t like Marmite on first tasting is that they take too much of it. It’s supposed to be a very thin spread (a scraping) on toast or bread, not a huge thick layer or great dollop of it. It’s also great as a flavouring (maybe a teaspoon or tablespoon) in soup. The reason you’re liking it in crisp form is that it’s just a smattering, a flavouring. Just as it should be 🤷🏻‍♂️

Re Battenberg cake. It is named after the Battenberg family - more particularly Prince Louis of Battenberg who, in 1884 married Queen Victoria's granddaughter Victoria.

A great aunt used to make her own plum jam and distribute them to family. When I was 11 or 12, that years jar was really sour and for no reason I can remember, I added some marmite to my pb&j. It took the sourness away and nearly fifty years on, I still make a pbj&m every now and then. Going to make one now!

[@Russell-77]

Heading to the supermarket in Shanghai after work after watching this. Yes, we can find Marmite here. Somehow gets through customs 🤣

[@axiana]

I love the mango and red chilli poppadoms not keen on the lime ones either, and omg ginger nuts dipped in some strong coffee is just amazing.

Hi Folks, I understand, the allergic to coriander, Walkers crisps (and all others I believe) don't always or often have the ingredient that they are supposed to taste of. I worked for a large crisp manufacturer in the 1980's, our beef flavour was vegetarian as was the Bacon flavour, though not the cheese and onion. The only flavour that used the bae ingredient aside from ready salted, was chicken. I mention this because the coriander crisp probably don't contain coriander, though I would also not try them in your circumstance.

i’ve gone back to the start of your trying british foods series, from the beginning until now. and wow, debbie is looking more and more youthful. Even in personality somehow. The longer hair definitely suits you debbie! You look beautiful. I enjoy watching both of your videos, they’re great.

[@nicholakeeble7172]

Hey ladies, you are both just great fun and so entertaining so I’m newly subscribed 😊 I’m from a city in the North East of England called Newcastle and I can honestly say, don’t worry about how you pronounce caramel please say it as you know it, I mean Debbies’s double pronunciation was funny 😂 but here in the UK throughout our different regions we have different meanings for the same word and some pronunciations are different too, I for one respect where you guys are from as much as where I am from 😊 great video lasses (lasses being a geordie term for girls, ladies 😊) it’s a shame you don’t except snack gifts as there are many things from my neck of the woods I would love you to try haha purely for my entertainment of course haha

[@Kn8ght6930]

Chocolate buttons are made from the original recipe from the UK. It’s delicious.

[@matthewhenery4834]

😂😂😂 Not even so much the reactions to, but the bracing for the Marmite lol... Amazing as always... 😂❤ ✌❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🏳️‍🌈 xxx

[@vallee3140]

I put anything with chocolate on it, in the Fridge before eating, as I like the chocolate to be firm not soft. Loved your reactions to the Marmite Crisps, so funny.

[@emmahowells8334]

With the caramel wafer bars, when they first came out you could only get them from the milk man, now they're in all shops, one of my all time faves from a child up to today, funnily enough I had one of those earlier lol. My other fave biscuit is chocolate hobnobs, delicious. I also love chocolate fingers, once you start you can't stop til the box is empty lol.👌 I like to just let the chocolate buttons melt on my tongue it's just tasty.

[@GA-fz2wt]

Chocolate buttons have been around forever, all the little kids love them, me too! 😁 And jam tarts, the yellow ones are always the last to go, nobody liked them in our house. Red is best 👌

[@hiiamandi]

Oh btw, my great great great grandfather gave tunnocks the money to set up his factory, u should try caramel logs, (the same biscuit covered in toasted coconut,) and tea cakes!

[@richardgrahame5408]

Hi Natasha and Debbie, the best way to eat Ginger Nuts , is as a base for a Banoffee Pie. The Ginger Nuts cuts down the sweetness of the other 3 ingredients. I use Ginger Nuts all the time when i make one also with fresh double cream.

[@MrPercy112]

Banoffee Pie! 🥰

[@davidcarter9097]

Also lovely as a base for Key Lime Pie

[@nickgrazier3373]

You said that all these snacks were bought in a US local shop! It just occurred to me that Cadburys chocolate is now owned by Hersheys and as soon as they bought it they changed the recipe to Hersheys chocolate and the sales plummeted in the UK, It may well be that the CDM (Cadbury’s Dairy Milk) bought in the US may well be the Hershey’s recipe again, because you like Hershey’s chocolate!!! HHHHHhhhaaaaaaa!!! The horror!

[@MrPercy112]

Horror indeed! 😮

[@jamesb821]

You can legit pin point the micro second when someone comes to the Marmite side 🤣 it always gets you in the end, like a killer at the end of a horror film.

[@user-fs6hi1gg5f]

So glad Natasha likes the Marmite crisps! Whenever I send a jar of my beloved omami paste to friends abroad, I always tell them "less is more". The crisps have a thin sprinkle of the often hated taste & when eating it on toast, only the teeny-weeny, tiniest smear is needed. If you still hate it that way, should you be brave enough to try it again in a non-crisp format, try it with peanut butter. The combination of sweet, salty & a touch of sour is brilliant, or so my taste buds tell me. Love the show, stay safe & happy, Iain.

[@shadowysea]

They should try Marmite cheese!

[@user-fs6hi1gg5f]

@@shadowysea Yes! Indeed, very much so.

[@buidseach]

OMG, I absolutley love Twiglets, I think they even used to do a white chocolate covered twiglet at one point which were delicious :)

[@pammyb1972]

LOVE dunking Ginger Nuts in coffee! They're nice with tea too, but coffee is best 😁

[@veronicawilliams7427]

I love Ginger-nuts and rather like the mini Battenburgs, but would prefer a cake sized Battenburg The rest forget them

[@jeanniewarken5822]

Battenburg is normally a large cake coated with marzipan.. same shape as the minis. .its the marzipan that makes it so sweet as marzipan is icing sugar and ground almonds. The full size battenburg sweetness is less as the marzipan to sponge ratio is better balanced

[@paulineogorman4061]

Marmite crisps - Gateway drug lol you'll be eating the real thing by Christmas.

[@dr.tanyajay4473]

You look like such a lovely, warm couple. Great video ! Take care x

[@kathchandler4919]

The flavour you're trying to explain for the Battenburgs is almond, ground up & made into marzipan , I love them, the big cake version though, not the little one (they're sold in all our cake shops, try Greggs) . ps I hate ginger biscuits but love McVities ginger cake, lovely with Lurpak butter spread on them xx

[@Angelicala]

A thin spreading of marmite on toast with butter and a cup of tea is a lovely combination 😍😍😍 English person here. Twiglets are grim but marmite crisps are so good 👏
