BRITS REACT | Two Brits try Classic American Pies! | BLIND REACTION

[@gmunden1]

Both terms Autumn and Fall are used in America, "Fall" is used often as an easier word to describe the season because of falling leaves. Pecans can be expensive depending on the harvest. Because this is a nut in high demand, the market price can fluctuate. Pumpkin is not the same a a sweet potato but the seasoning is similar, that's all. Sweet potatoes are root vegetables and yams are different from sweet potatoes. Pumpkin is a gourd fruit which come in many varieties.

Mississippian here! The best part of the video was watching them eat pie while holding their forks like 5-year-olds 😅 Grew up learning how to make so many different pies and other desserts I'm sure you've never heard of. Shoo-Fly Pie was definitely one of them. 😊❤

[@paperthyme]

Shoo Fly Pie Brings memories of warm, ooey-gooey sticky goodness on summer evening suppers!

[@crystalpender2345]

My favorite pies are as follows 1. Pecan 2. Sweet potato 3. Apple

[@valg.3270]

Sweet Potato Pie and Pumpkin Pie taste pretty much the same to me.

[@laydp2760]

My favorites are Pecan & Coconut Cream Pie - Yum!

[@paperthyme]

I make a mean Coconut Cream Pie!

This place, the Outsider Tart, is actually in London. If you live nearby, you should go - and film it, of course!

What? No Misissippi mud pie? I love boysenberry pie, but some others that people in our family like are cherry cream pie, chocolate chip pecan, chocolate chip, pumpkin, raisin pie (my dad's favorite), butterscotch (my sister's), chocolate silk (our daughter-in law's), and key lime (Florida version). I also love coconut cream, and banana cream pie. For their birthday cakes, some of our kids (all adults) prefer pies. Some prefer cheesecake. My mom was a baker, a cake decorator, and a cook.

[@Centervillejim]

Peach pie is my favorite fruit pie, chocolate is my favorite cream pie, but pecan is my favorite all-time pie.

[@SarahBroad-kw7fj]

Pumpkin pie isn’t just cooked pumpkin it’s pumpkin with pumpkin spices and eggs and sweetened condensed milk so it’s basically like a pumpkin custard with that fall spices of nutmeg and clove and cinnamon. It’s really good.

[@davidweiss8710]

It's a bag of Frito's corn chips..hence Frito Pie. You can also have a "walking taco" which is a small kid size bag of Doritos that you leave in the bag, then cover the doritos with taco seasoned ground beef, cheddar cheese, onion, lettuce, jalapenos and taco sauce..again giving it its name since you can then walk around with it. Personal favorite pie is Dutch Apple Pie.

[@nullakjg767]

frito pie makes more sense if you think it of it as a savory pie. fritos make the crust and the chile is the filling.

[@lindadeters8685]

My favorite pies are key lime, peach, and pecan

[@paperthyme]

I grew up in Pennsylvania, among the Amish as did my mom. I have always made her Amish inspired recipes. My favorite pies were apple, blueberry and Shoo Fly Pie.

[@katinacarson-hunwi7297]

My favorite pie is pecan.

[@valerieburris607]

My favorite pie is Sweet Potatoes, pecan, and apple pie.

For Kool-aid my family always did 1 packet and 1 cup of sugar per half gallon (64fl oz) of water. always served with ice or at least chilled.

[@valg.3270]

So, 2 cups of sugar for one gallon of Kool-Aid…I always cut down on the sugar. Kool aid definitely has to be served with ice!!

[@Ameslan1]

Alice and Kai you should take a road trip to London and try those pies yourselves!

[@AliKaiProject]

Definitely :)

[@AC-ni4gt]

3:35 I personally enjoy a cup of milk with mine. Ice cold milk with an equally cold cup.

[@daricetaylor737]

Pumpkin pie and orange chiffon pie are my favorites.....but then again, a good pecan or apple pie cannot be beat either! There are SO many other pies you can get here in the US and all are so different! There is banana cream, chocolate cream, boston cream, apple crumble pie (Dutch apple) raspberry, black berry and cream, lemon meringue, lemon custard, coconut cream, cherry, peanut butter, sugar pie, chess pie...... the list goes on an on, and you should never just assume a good pie needs cream, custard or ice cream to make it better. Some pies really are amazing just on their own.

[@JustMe-dc6ks]

Normally a key lime pie is quite tart. This one seems much sweeter and what the Beesleys tried was a key lime pie flavor cheesecake.

[@lindadeters8685]

Pumpkin pie is usually made with canned pumpkin purée. If you want to use a real pumpkin, you need to use baking pumpkins, not a carving pumpkin. They are very different in flavor.

[@AC-ni4gt]

How different if I may ask?

[@lindadeters8685]

@ A baking or sugar pumpkin is smaller, has sweeter and denser flesh. The carving pumpkin has stringy flesh with less flavor.

I'm in a small town in Arizona. About 50-70 years ago the town decide to plant pecan trees everywhere...I mean everywhere. at churches, schools, parks, every other yard had 5 of em. Pecans everywhere. As kids we used to just snatch 'em up off the ground while we would run around playing and snack on them all day long... During recess, at school, we would have little contests to see who could shell a pecan but keep the nut inside whole the fastest. It was also a big deal when the tree shaker would show up. The machine grabs the tree and vibrates it. All the nuts come raining down in one go, hundreds of them. and some of us had 2, 5, 10 trees in our yards. We would swarm the yard with paper shopping bags and load them up with pecans for our friends (or whoever was the owner of the trees LOL) just because we liked to race each other to see who could collect a whole bag full first. Saved the adults from doing any work and we kids always got a couple of bucks for the help. The trees have started dying these past 10 years. Mostly because they are getting very old. And Pecan trees are very expensive now and we're not getting as much rain as we did half a century ago. So they are not being replanted very much. Which is sad. They were such a main part of the local culture.

[@ronig4046]

Strawberry Rhubarb is my favorite pie. Heated to perfection with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it’s chefs kiss 😘

[@colleenmonfross4283]

It's vital to use real key limes when making a Key Lime pie, they have a flavor that is unlike any other variety of lime, which gives the pie a very distinctive taste. His Key Lime pie looked less creamy than what I prefer. Ugh! Kool-Aide, why would you make it???

[@AliKaiProject]

Curiousity! We've never had the opportunity to try it. :)

[@asiaroberson3442]

I love kool-aid. Don't ever disrespect kool-aid 😤

Texan here. My favorite Pecan pie is made with equal parts of Maple syrup and Pure cane syrup but a very close second is to use all Golden syrup.

[@daricetaylor737]

If you guys want an "inkling" of what the shoofly pie tastes a bit like, take a piece of plain white bread, lightly butter it, generously pile it with dark brown sugar and place it under your grill setting in the oven and grill it until it bubbles up and turns molten. Let it cool down before trying to eat it as you will burn all the tissues in the roof of your mouth. But once cooled, you will get that intense dark caramel, crispy crunchy of the brown sugar that makes the shoofly pie so famous for!

[@AC-ni4gt]

David described it similar to treacle tart. Treacle is a rich sugary treat from what I can tell.

[@aliciajames8038]

We also have savory pies ( chicken, beef, turkey pot pies) I consider Quiche a savory pie ( my faves Ham & cheese and Lorraine as well)... I'm surprised the pie baker didn't serve Jolly a Mississippi Mud pie with him being from Mississippi. My favorite pies are Key lime, Sweet Potato and Chess pie!

[@sissybushnell7959]

My neighbor has a pecan tree and my driveway is full of the shells where the squirrels eat the nuts and throw the shells down 😂😂

As an American, I can confirm these look like the real deal. I would love to try his pies. There's lots more pies than this, but this is a good sampling. Edit: If you can't get ahold of pumpkin there, you can use butternut squash. It's basically identical.

Pecan & pumpkin pies are what we always have at Thanksgiving. Sometimes my mother-in-law will make a chocolate pie with meringue on top.

[@renee176]

They only touched on how many different types of pies we have in this States. So many more pies to bake and eat.😊

[@ericramsell5947]

My favorite pie: most of them- pumpkin, pecan, blueberry, and a really well spiced apple pie. I also like peach pie if it has plenty of cinnamon. Even if it isn't spiced. Then Lemon meringue, banana cream.

A pack of Kool-Aid makes two US quarts or about 1893 ml. They also call for the addition of one cup of sugar or about 237 ml.

[@lorawiese5897]

But you can adjust the sugar. We never use 1 cup of sugar, we used 3/4 c. but it is personal choice.

[@tinahairston6383]

Ok...Kool-aid is one packet per pitcher. There is NO breaking it down per glass. You will hate it for sure, lol. One packet of Koolaid in 2 quarts or 1,893 mL of water and 1 cup or 200 grams of sugar. You can adjust the sugar to taste but these are the directions on each packet. Now what the do make are presweetened single packets that you add to a 20 oz bottle of water, shake well and then you can drink. I don't tend to like them as they are too sweet with the artificial sweetener they use but if it turns out you like them, they are great on the go for something different.

[@marydavis5234]

You can actually get packs of kool aid for one glass here in Vermont.

The tanginess is due to the type or apples used. Some apples are tangy and some are sweet.

[@valg.3270]

Granny Smith apples are so good cooked. When I was younger (my 20’s & 30’s), they were my favorite apple to eat fresh. As I got older, the wonderful tart flavor became so tart that it seemed bitter.

[@tinatrujillo2296]

You can eat your apple pie with cheddar cheese too

[@ChristopherWilliams-h7r]

you don't eat the big pumpkins! Pumpkin Pie is made from smaller pumpkins called Pie ( or Baking) Pumpkins. The big ones are for Jack O lanterns only

[@bigpoppaplump462]

Ice cream overwhelms a properly made pie. IMHO

[@tinahairston6383]

Call me a weirdo because I do not eat ice cream with cake or pie. So adding it just takes away from it. If I want pie, I just want pie, lol. Key Lime is my favorite pie but I like the tartness so don't do cream or anything. Fritos are corn chips like tortillas but thicker. Think taco/nachos to go, lol. We don't do pumpkin pie in my family. The sweet potato is our go-to. I literally was asking my cousins today if they would be here for Thanksgiving as one would have to do a bigger road trip and one asked would sweet potato pie be on the menu which is a dumb question and he was like...I'm there! LOL! Starbucks doesn't make their food items in house...no comparison, just saying.

[@valg.3270]

Definitely no ice cream on Key Lime Pie!!
