American Girls Try Snacks From The UK United Kingdom

[@jaysummers9396]

I'm English, I've lived in England for 52 years, and I've literally never seen or heard of any of those snacks

[@maccyp1824]

I’m English and have never heard of a few of those things…..they could have given you a much better box to be fair

[@boontindo]

what snack items do you have in mind? I follow these gals and love their content bit also really love suggestions from people who live in the countries they're reviewing.

[@monkeymanbob]

@@boontindo Depends on what your favourite type of sweets are - like the States we have a plethora of choices and for every best selling product there is a knock off cheapy version (such as the pickled onion rings in the box - Monster Munch Pickled Onion are, to me, the pinnacle of pickle onion snacks).

[@beverleyringe7014]

I’m English and never heard or seen these, could have had a better selection with our well known products.. poor box..

[@StarDemz]

As a british person i've never heard most of these must be like a local own brand maybe? the crisps i've never ever ever seen

[@vickytaylor9155]

Wine gums are fruit flavoured. They are classed in the UK as old people gummies.

[@jacobuponthestone9093]

I didn't know it was old people candy but I've had them and they are definitely just fruit gummies.

[@ulyssesthirteen7031]

Pipers aside, I've literally never seen those brands before. They all appear to be 'knock off' versions of better known brands, perhaps the kind of thing you'd get from a Pound Shop (or Dollar store) rather from a supermarket/newsagent/sweet shop etc. Maybe your reactions might have been more positive if you'd have a better selection of more typical brands.

[@pershorefoodbanktrusselltr3632]

I’m from the UK and didn’t realise we still had twirls crisps!

[@cheekymonkey666]

the oat cake or what we call 'flapjack' is made from butter, golden syrup, sugar, rolled oats, we make them all the time for school pack lunches. we also make them and coat them with carmel toffee or black treacle toffee for 'guy forks night' easy to make mix the sugar, syrup and butter to gethe rin a pan until miced then add oats,, place on a tray about an inch thick then leave to cool, once cooled cover with chocolate or icing, or toffee, you can also mix in dried fruit like currents, raisens, sultanas, dried choppe dleon and orange peel.

[@BRGKasumi77Main]

You girls made an amazing video. Subbed and giving a million of stars for both of you. Next stop: US snacks vs UK snacks!

[@cheekymonkey666]

Star Burst were originally called Opal Fruits created in the UK, Opal Fruits were introduced in the United States in 1967 as M&M's Fruit Chewies and later as Starburst. The brand was introduced by Mars in the UK in 1960, named Opal Fruits by Peter Phillips (known as Peter Pfeffer at the time), the winner of a competition that won him £5. Produced at their factory in Slough, Berkshire, the four original flavours were strawberry, lemon, orange and lime.

[@chriscambridge5737]

45 years living in the UK, never heard of any of those brands. If you want real British snacks sent to you, free of charge, just set-up a P.O.Box, and your viewers will send you loads. Check KZbin and you will see that others have done this, and have got loads of sweets/candy/snacks.

[@Seanoakwolf]

I'm from the UK. i have not heard of those brands before.

[@jamieandtherandomstuff]

As with the vast majority of commenters, I too am from the UK and only ever seen two of these brands, Millions and Piper's crisps. With the rhubarb & custard sweets (candies) they're classed as an old fashioned sweet and usually are a boiled sweet. Other variants are strawberries & cream, blackcurrant & liquorice, rosy apples, pineapple chunks and cola cubes. The wine gums are a very cheap version of Maynard's. If you get the chance try the red & black bag. To me they don't taste as wine. The Millions shouldn't be eaten individually, put a penny/cent sized pile in your palm and stick it in your mouth. Also, the sweets need to go in the mouth whole and not nibbled on. A lot of the time there's a liquid centre or the flavouring is in the middle. Also, chewing the whole thing will release a bigger flavour. We have a similar company in the UK doing the same thing but in a box that size we get a drink. Is there that option with you guys?

[@johnmcaleer7099]

Our usual brand of chips/crisps is walkers aka lays. And we don't have grape flavour its usually blackcurrant.🇬🇧 Ps McCoy's is also a brand of thick cut or ridge cut crisps🙂

[@cheekymonkey666]

rhubarb and custard was one of britains best hot deserts, boiled rhubarb then placed into a pan covered with a pastry crumble baked, served with a covering of custard... or cream...

[@rod370]

Hi, Thank you for making this video. I liked it. As you where eating sweets for England where I'm from.

[@dannyholden6042]

The flapjack that you like also comes in multiple different flavours with real pieces of cherry, apricot dates walnuts and many many more all in my opinion very good

[@adamcottrell6454]

Heard of Grandma Wilds, Pipers & Millions but I've never heard of the rest & I live in the UK.

[@michw3755]

I know the items or flavours but I did not recognise one single brand, wonder where these items are sourced

[@gumjuicee6746]

Pipers crisps are normally in pubs I’ve had them a few times

[@lalunacee9168]

Living in the UK I wonder where they got put this bic together because at 42 I've never seen most of those. If you have a PO box I'd love to send you my favourite branded snacks from here.

[@chaos666reigns]

While some of these may not be the main brands, Im 5 items into this video and I recognise 4 of them. Genuinely surprised how many fellow brits don’t recognise them. Maybe they’re more northern products?

[@kulturellheinrichment8277]

Yeah, I'm English but live in Scotland and have seen pretty much everything here. Southerners always think they represent everywhere in the UK.

[@BigC1290]

You're the first person to actually think that the wine gums tasted like actual 🍷 for someone who isn't a regular wine drinker because to us over here they just taste like regular candy

[@brianc6272]

The Best Toffee i ever tasted as a kid in the UK was 'Highland Toffee Bars or Dainty Bars; they were delicious but great video although never really heard of those Boxed items you received

[@aaronbennett7474]

Thorntans hands down.

[@kenslater7354]

These are very uncommon brands in the UK. You need abox with Cadbury chocolate and walkers crisps (chips).

[@rod370]

Hi, Go online and get a recipe for flapjacks. And make your own.

[@IDTV66]

5:21 thats why they're called Millions

[@williammacrae6119]

Aye they are from britain mostly scotland and ni

[@paultutty4302]

I don't know where these snacks were made, but it was not the uk.

[@leesabook4891]

I have lived in Bath all my life and have never heard of any of those lol, must be a regional thing! You could definitely have had a better box that what you had x

[@johntaphouse5235]

well i dont know where the other guys replying have been living but i have heard of and seen most of these.. thing is.. they are in the budget lines.. you know pound land stuff.. home bargains type shops.. nothing wrong with those kind of shops.. but it does kind of show alot into the type of packages that yums is sending out :((.. probably the most exciting thing in that box, is the box itself yeah the dropped sweet wasnt retrieved within the 5 second rule time allowance,... good parenting

[@faithpearlgenied-a5517]

Never seen those brands before lol, perhaps they're cheap brands or local brand instead of things available all over the UK. Not sure why they didn't send you at least SOME common UK snacks!

[@jennetscarborough5145]

Wine gums typically aren't flavoured with wine, usually they are assorted fruit flavours. They were designed to be marketed as an alternative to alcohol back in 1909, inspired by the owners teetotal Methodist father.

[@LuciousLeeStetson]

I am from England I have never heard of these.

[@seanconnolly7386]

The girls probably haven't heard of many popular British brands but I have to agree this is not a very good selection of crisps & sweets from the UK I've never heard of them.😊

[@pete4206]

i would unsubscribe from that yum box

[@dorothysimpson2804]

Wine Gums are a very old British sweet.

[@JonnyVision88]

Just because something is different to what your usual is not making that wine gums are pretty good

[@jeansteele6586]

Oh boy, was my mouth watering…, black currant…treacle toffee etc,…Rhubarb and custard Oh yummy

[@downsman1]

Treacle is our name for what you call black molasses. We call that toffee "the Dentists Friend".....................................the ancient Englishman.

[@jacobuponthestone9093]

Yea wine gums don't taste like wine they are fruit gummies. Her thinking that was placebo. It even says on the back what flavors they are. They are ok.

[@MeanJohnDean]

You realize that eating foods you've never had before could trigger an allergic reation,,, especially in your daughter.

[@seeker1432]

They have not given the most populor brands. Bet it was not cheap.

[@grunge_surf_witch_uk9130]

Whoever sent that of box sweets I’ve never seen in my entire life… and I’m in my 40s!! Were they from Uk??? I’ve had millions but those ones don’t look like the ones we have here?

[@jamieandtherandomstuff]

Tbh, I have seen them. Multi buy them in the pound shop or occasionally at the paper shop.

[@ctartist3577]

Im not one to assume but it looks like youve been scammed. these are not UK snacks

[@dussel69deboath61]

they are but not major brands....was some good ones in the selection

[@leelid4376]

They are uk snacks but cheaper versions of originals.

[@birminghamcityfootballclub7587]

I've seen all theses I'n my city apart from Kent chips they just local The others are like a copy Who put that box together needs a 🤛

[@hensleyfoodreview4789]

great video keep it up

[@stuartlodge1959]

Try cheese and onion tatto chips, best on the planet

[@craig5066]

The owners of the company are really cutting costs with these classic flavoured but lesser known branded snacks. They should be sending you the most popular uk household brands to get a true reflection of taste and quality especially as your probably paying over the odds. Looks like a lot of the items are from a pound shop,very poor.

[@jca111]

I also a 52 year old British (Welsh living in London). Apart from one (pipers) I haven't heard of any of these brands. Looks like a scam box set of treats.

[@shelleysmales959]

It's not chocolate icing, it's straight up melted chocolate

[@joanne26]

I do not know any of these ‘’British snacks’ I think you have been ‘had’ You need to investigate more what is available as genuine products like Tunnocks Tea Cakes, Tunnocks Caramel Wafers, Tunnocks Snowballs, Walkers Crisps, McVities Digestive Biscuits and Bassetts Jelly Babies These are all the snacks I used to eat as a kid back in the early 1970’s 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧😍😍

[@wiseblood90]

[@maxmoore9955]

[@alisonallen8658]

[@xRazorFreaZz]

Sad that they sent you cheap local brands instead of the most common popular brands

[@aidansmith6464]

Never heard of them rubbish sweet / snacks You were ripped off.

[@draven123100]

They seem like cheap brands. That was one hell of a fart from the kid near the end haha.

[@timmartin2894]

Never heard of most of these - these aren't typical English snacks... that company has sent you cheap knock-off versions of English snacks, probably to save their own costs...

[@simonfox9452]

Sorry but you got ripped off my love I’m British Never seen 99% of whatever that is…..

[@kenslater7354]

Not watching this to the end. Just not UK stuff

[@kenslater7354]

Total rubbish in that box. Dont fall for that again

[@austinhull8331]
