They sell the majority of these things, including Oreos, in a lot of UK supermarkets in the American/world section. I guess it's possible they've never really heard of them, but I'm sure they've seen them on the shelves, even if they've never tried them.

[@tortue1227]

@@Lizzo13 it's more ubiquitous than that. They're not sold in the American/world section. Doritos are sold in the crisp section with a dozen varieties. They even do Doritos dips. Oreos are sold in the cookie section but in the UK there's only one or two varieties, unlike the US. Pop-Tarts have been in the UK for 30 years. Lay's are known as Walkers in the UK. Like Paul says, Snickers exists in the UK but with different chocolate. Paul and Prue have definitely tried all the brands I mentioned. They are downplaying their familiarity with the products for the sake of the video's theme.

[@averylfong4843]

​@@tortue1227 I mean it depends on whether they've ever reached for those items to try them, IMO. Especially if they're shopping at idk, Waitrose and going straight for the fresh food, maybe popping over to the biscuit aisle - if they EVEN are shopping themselves. Odds are fairly high they've never gone for Twinkies or Pop Tarts (which I sometimes do find in the international section). Doritos maybe, but again there are much fancier crisp selections, even corn-based ones.

I find American chocolate better than British chocolate. British chocolate is very one-note to me. But that doesn't mean that American chocolate is actually better, any more than someone else preferring British chocolate does. We all have preferences. Not only that, but you can't blame Hershey's for the chocolate in a Snickers. Snickers is made by Mars, a Hershey competitor.

[@akirebara]

@@wbfaulk You might want to read the ingredients on American chocolates. The EU has stricter rules in terms what can be marketed as chocolate compared to the US. Cadbury can't sell their chocolates to the rest of EU if the percentage of cocoa does not hit the threshold. American companies just add more sugar to cover the lesser cocoa content.

For those confused on the US vs UK Snickers - In the UK chocolate manufacturers uses more milk and less sugar compared to the US recipes. This is true for each of the major international brands (Nestle, Cadbury, Mars etc.). In my opinion the US versions have a nice instant sweetness, but an unpleasant oily aftertaste. The UK versions are highlighted with creaminess rather that instant sweetness.

Ruffles are for dipping , lays are just for a snack .

[@gwlevits]

THEY ATE THE POPTARTS COLD?! Major fail by the organizers there. Of course they taste abominable cold!

[@CTScenic]

I dunno... Ill eat frosted cinnamon cold all day. Delicious little cardboard snackaroos. When youre pop tarts desperate who has toaster patience?

[@Katia-e5l]

I literally ate a snickers this past Halloween for the first time in a while, and they DO TASTE DIFFERENT. The flavors are gone and all I taste is pure sugar.

[@INTRO2ORGANIC]

The chocolate quality is different. A lot of chocolate candy bars have changed its taste. I remember them being way better when I was younger 😊😮

[@kaleighcoutermarsh4922]

They're so pretentious 😭 lol i love them

[@Egg-ed1df]

how can i trust someone who cant eat more than two oreos at a time

[@staciewagner7653]

Oreos should be eaten by the row.

[@owades]

They’re eating the Oreos dry, and complaining about the excessive crunchiness and dryness. Dunk an Oreo in milk and it’ll have the texture they want. “Milk’s favorite cookie.”

[@sarahbreed6798]

They need to give them milk for dunking!!!

[@teresahalliday3680]

As I was watching him say that, I'm think how do you NOT eat a whole row????😆

[@annalouise4098]

I could watch an entire season of this

[@irenebecker4815]

I totally agree about Doritos - hands down the best flavor, and capable of holding avocado dip.

[@jentleil2183]

A Pop Tart not toasted? That is is insane

[@hollishaley-o5u]

It was explained to me when I was in Switzerland that chocolate taste different because they don’t use the same process. The FDA requires certain preservatives to be added.

[@tiffanylastinger3925]

Love that they suggested guacamole with dorritos

[@rofobowman]

Yeah. I can’t eat more than 2 (packages of) Oreos at a time either. 😂

[@nicoleschaller2027]

I will not get over Paul’s pronunciation of Lays or Lezzz

[@dlariby]

Lairs

[@PhatTrumpet2]

When I vacationed in France a few years back, Cool Ranch Doritos were marketed as "American Flavor."

[@syntacticalcrab]

I love it any time someone takes an unsuspecting bite of an American chocolate thingy and goes EUUUGH. I always say that there's a reason you guys call them "candy bars" and not "chocolate bars".

[@radbu1075]

I can easily eat more than one or two Oreos in a sitting. I try to limit myself to 5 but I could definitely eat more 😅

[@heatherscott-fleming4888]

I have 4, lol.

[@alainadacosta1222]

"I'm ruined" 😂 It was nice to see them outside of GBBO

[@kayjacoby290]

First of all, giving them un-toasted Pop-tarts to sample is heinous. Like, "Here have some dried pasta vs. a slice of pizza." Follow up video: using snacks as ingredients. Ex: Oreos in cookies & cream ice cream, crushed as pie crust; chocolate covered potato chips, crushed chips as coating for chicken tenders; topping for casserole, Toasted Pop-Tarts used to make ice cream sandwich.

[@mb-the-enby]

As an American, I love how their final 2 are my own personal top 2 snacks.

[@bmack5265]

Me: Loves strawberry PopTarts, raw or toasted Paul: 🤢🤬😠😖 Me: 😢

[@catapillargirl2021]

I must know what a British Snickers is like! The Combos commentary was HILARIOUS.

[@lindsaykat3675]

The m&ms are also different in the UK. I think it's a different shell to chocolate ratio. But I couldn't tell you which I like more.

[@catapillargirl2021]

@@lindsaykat3675 Is the shell also made of different ingredients i wonder? Here they use toxic dyes.

[@amyw6808]

Definitely better chocolate. Same with m and ms.

[@shemitch]

They should have gave them the brown sugar cinnamon Pop tarts! Those are Great!

[@JanetSmith900]

Hands down the best.

[@michaelortt9514]

They taste like a cinnamon roll. I love them.

[@Iceykitsune]

The should have toasted them

[@theWONDERFULwiz]

The Combos slander alone justifies the revolutionary war.

[@robbieandrew4075]

We have almost all of these in UK in basically any given supermarket. Like, they are just standard snacks. Surely they could have found more interesting snacks that they have actually not tried before?

[@cafecito_cream]

Pure!!! She said Pure!!! For a friggin Dorito. Hahaha. I can't

[@saltydog7038]

"it tastes like a British crisp" Walker's 👏 are 👏 Lay's 👏 Lay's bought out Walker's a long time ago and even tried to change the name but it tanked so they changed the name back to Walker's but it's still the Lay's chips and logo. It's all PepsiCo, which also owns Doritos. Sidebar I think Brits would like Ranch if you called it Buttermilk, Garlic & Herb .

[@ComedianReacts]

Walkers are owned by Lays but that doesn’t mean they use American potatoes or the same production process. Lays are much greasier and taste cheaper. There are better brands in either country regardless, but it’s much easier to find quality crisps in a UK supermarket as most have their own in house quality brands which are like kettle chips, and higher quality seasoning on them. 😋

[@candiedisilvio9596]

What could be better than Prue Leith and Paul “blue eyes” Hollywood doing an American junk food comparison video!? Nothing! Best video ever!!! ❤😂❤

[@robertnorth1681]

I swear Paul sounds more British in this than on TV.

[@flipperdale51]

You're supposed to toast the Pop-tarts; hence the word "Pop" in the name.

[@alaskanwolf90]

How dare they pick Snickers over Reeses! lol
