Māori & First Nations Aussies Swap Snacks

[@anyapearce6113]

This was so wholesome. Everyone was so lovely and it was great to see a peak into our indigenous cultures snack preferences!

[@bethwilliams8748]

I think dry noodles are just a universal “poor kid” food.

[@karlaaylett4752]

Agree fellow poor kid here we ate dry noodles all the time 😂

[@savannahellis8888]

Its also a prison snack lol you would be surprised by all the cool shit they make with noodles or "soups" lol

[@warONjoypiter]

It was a "popular kid" food growing in Hawaii. If you had this during recess, everyone would come flocking to you lol.

[@behemothsbaby]

It’s a regular snack for a lot of kids- poor or not!

"what's up bitches" absolutely sent me!

Paakehaa here, bringing back so many primary school memories - remember how orange your hand would go from licking the raro up 🤣🤣🤣 amazing video, love hearing from the First Peoples of our two countries!

[@lilytatui5749]

The fkn nostalgia 😂😂 taking the raro sachets to school and getting in trouble from your mum when there weren't any left to make cordial

[@rcme0000]

This Episode was so gooood!!!!! Raro is a definite staple as well as tomato sauce on everything 😂 That curry must be delicious.

[@AyeGee721]

I'm Ngati Porou too. But as Kiwis in general, 'Luncheon Sausage' (Devon) sandwiches are like typical kids lunch foods xD. Also, its a Maori thing to slap anything possible between two pieces of bread lmao.

I can’t believe the Aussies haven’t had the dry noodles before. It is very common in Australia

Yeah I was surprised too!! Especially popular for kids. I remember having the mamee noodles with the blue monster on the packet

Totally nostalgic of my NZ upbringing🤍🖤 Makes me miss Nans steamed pudding even more!

[@KyleS3m3noff]

Man! My Nan made steamed pudding for you, too?! ;)

[@jamiejunkjournals9316]

I'd put it on a sandwich too!! Chips on a sandwich= EVERYTHING!! Once you try it you'll never want a sandwich without chips again.. that CRUNCHHH!!

[@JCEE101]

Chicken chips with vinegar, lubly, but the Curry with the dough boys, star of the show. Mad Blakfulla feed. Chef's kiss. Omg 🥰 bread and butter pudding, so nostalgic.

[@jeynaraleathart4508]

As a fellow Māori could y’all do a video of that curry and how to make it! I grew up in aus my whole life so got to appreciate both sides of these foods. Love me a good boil up and a Devon sandwich.

[@pkjkg]

That instant noodle thing is so common in Thailand kids eat it as a snack and Tom yum Kung flavor is the best one

[@lari1349]

In northeastern India too!

[@emk3]

it must just be a thing around the world because we did it in Canada when we were younger as well!

[@vickithompson3039]

I do that and I live in the US! Its so good

[@jeringatai3156]

In Australia Aldis has a brand that sell dry noodles as a school snack

[@yamini42]

They are so nice to each other ❤️❤️❤️ and genuinely enjoyed the swaps. #heartmelting

[@kamaleikim6735]

A lot of these food are common in Hawaii. The salty plum is what we call li hing mui!

[@RaneBowen]

I feel I actually perfected the pie sandwich many years ago when I worked as a baker. One mince and cheese pie, straight out of the oven, pop it into a croissant, also straight out of the oven, with butter. Pure heart attack material...

[@milly8522]

South African here, totally love the Mãori people and culture and I don't think I even know 5% of their culture. They are such easy going people, who embrace who they are and they represent their people so beautifully.

[@rani3201]

I remember eating raro and dry noodles as a kid.😂😂😂

[@antmanatthemoment7233]

Same

[@jeringatai3156]

i remember getting in trouble because I kept eating the raro and we'd have no cordial for dinner 😂

[@latdh1388]

this had me laughing hard out, as a Maori myself I have eaten and still most of these things, in fact just before watching this vid I had a pie sandwich, loved this vid.

There's something so heartwarming about this video and I'm going to try all these recipes when I get the time

[@chjdjdjdjsjsj830]

Omg the raro sachets. They banned those at my school when I attended primary in NZ bc the kids got obsessed and brought them to school everyday lollllll

[@kyemahdashay]

Yesssaaa, producers are reading and listening to the comments! Indigenous culture representation is what we like to see! (coming from a Black American, hon ;) )

[@letsgo-reacts]

the 'Raro' hack you can do it with 'jelly-crystals' aswell. Pie: lift lid, scoop out mince with twistees then pour twistees into pie shell. Two meals in one! Boil up: submerge mug into juice remove and add salt, & drink.

[@E.B_2211]

Love how they said their iwi, I’m ngati hine and ngati porou as well

[@OmnivorousReader]

This one deserves more than a like, this deserves a 'love'. Oh yeah! Go the salty plums!! but wait.... lemon juice on chips? I think I have finally found a way to eat them.

My Mrs is Aussie, she's always saying "why do you put everything in bread"🤣🤣.. She loves hangi, boil up, and My sister taught her how to make the mean rēwana and fry bread🤤

[@fleachamberlain1905]

Food is the best way to share cultures. It is certainly my favourite way. That and language. I love salty plums and scrunched up dry noodles with the flavouring, but I haven't had either since I was a kid. We called doughboys, dumplings. Mum would put them on every casserole, but I hated it 😅 Try curried sausage stew. It's good. You must have tomato sauce on devon sangers, just like on meat pies. Thanks for all the food tips.

[@Mf-jt4ny]

Ngati Porou represent! 💛

[@cruiznnz]

Never had the chance to eat Salted Plum but am sure I would enjoy it. Maybe its a generation thing but I grew up eating everything else except for the noodles (they weren't a thing back then. I have no drama for her preference being the curried stew and dumplings as I use to enjoy it as well but, when you haven't had a boil up in ages yeah that would be my choice but with puha (not the thistle type) but you can't go wrong with watercress or cabbage. Love these reactions.

[@minny4071]

Omg in Springvale we would always do dry noodles , chilli noodles ! Mama noodles or mi goreng ♥️♥️

[@chakradongodssun8885]

The doughboy dish is like chicken and dumplings or pot pie

[@benwilkinson7849]

its funny cause raro you're supposed to dissolve it in water but we always just use to smash it back hahahah, so good

They forgot to try Nz pies, Hangi, Fish & Chips, Nz lollies, Chip Dip and Chip Sandwich. Love my boil up tho.

[@jackiemenchaca7582]

As Hispanics, we eat the salted plum with an orange you submerge the plum in the middle of a half cut orange and enjoy so good!

[@lisaw44]

Can you explain this more please? Do you eat the orange like your would eat a grapefruit; with a spoon? Or do you eat peeled sections of the orange and take bites of the plum in between? It sounds delicious.

Pie sandwich is a UK thing, predominantly from Scotland. Pie and a piece is the correct name. Pie and a roll is also amazing.

[@cristinapastor2627]

HEY! Excuse my ignorance, but I'm from Spain and I'm not really close to Aussie culture and historical background. Could you guy explain to me the difference between Maori and First Nations Aussies? I'm not really sure that I can correctly tell what they mean. Thank you so much!! Definitely grateful to get to know such important things.

[@helenahartmann828]

Maori's are native to New Zealand, whereas First Nation Aussies are native to Australia as far as I know :)

[@lesmercredis]

They are different ethnic groups. The Maori are native to New Zealand, whereas the First Nations Australians are indigenous to, well, Australia. A similar comparison, for example, would be something like Italians and Spaniards.
