Finding British Food in an American Grocery Store

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Do any of these prices surprise you? What's one thing from home that would be worth the high price to be able to enjoy in another country? Check out this video where we visit a British supermarket (Tesco) for the first time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6GykoaAmrhpmKM&t Here's our first time shopping at M&S: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2Kanapors1rl9E&t

As someone said Mint with lamb, salad cream is a more acidic version of mayo I much prefer the sharpness I find mayo too much like cream not for me xx Brandon pickle in a sandwich with ham or cheese lovely xx Heinz beans are not good anymore much prefer supermarket own brands and they are way cheaper xx

Make sure to follow really carefully the procedure for getting a british pet health certificate before taking Dogo to the UK - I don't think the UK accepts US Pet health passports and if any of the documents are filled out incorrectly, the pet can end up in quarantine for up to 4 months.

Hi guys, someone else may have already commented on this…Violet Crumble is Australian (as you mentioned), the other similar chocolate bar you were talking about which they have in the UK is the Crunchie Bar, which you filmed in the UK Corner Store 😊 - both are chocolate coated honeycomb which I don’t think is common in the US when I’ve been there. Also, would love to see you guys do a vlog on the Aussie Bakery place as an Aussie myself would love to see it and should try the sausage rolls! I know you’re in the UK again now and you’ve done Gregg’s but ours are slightly differ as made with beef not pork usually in Aus. Great video, I’m currently in the UK so found it super interesting with the comparisons too. Thanks!

[@casgiatina]

I'm from the UK, but I lived in Italy for a while. It's such a cliché, but the one thing I had to have from home was teabags. Other tea just isn't the same. I also missed bacon - proper thick cut smoked back bacon. But I just had to do without.

Tbh our condiments go with whatever you want them to go with. I love salad cream with salad, chicken and pasta.. it kind of has a honey mustard vibe. As for mint sauce it goes well with lamb roast, chicken roast, peas, boiled new potatoes! Sauce up anything you like with whatever you like!!!

[@MichaelJohnsonAzgard]

Yorkshire tea is banned in Lancashire.

[@davidjackson2580]

But Lancashire tea is very good. I don't know how widely available it is, but here in Cheshire (or what I still insist is Cheshire, whatever the government says) it certainly is. If there were a Cheshire tea, I'd drink that, but there isn't, so we stick to Lancashire tea.

[@debbieticarich5409]

As a lucky American to have the honor of living in Cambridge, grocery shopping was interesting. We used Tesco, Sainsburys and the coop. They were all local. We bussed it one day to supertesco was closest to Walmart than the others. I was floored when I saw that the checkers were sitting. I agree it can't be that hard to do,why can't they do it in the u.s... very interesting to say the least. Ummm I saw the mcvitties digestive tasty stuff.

[@critchley999]

I use the Co-op when desperate as it's only down the road but I find their prices are extortionate. I do have a Co-op loyalty card which gives a bit of discount on their own brand things. Don't know if you've ever tried them but having been sadly disappointed by all other pies from Tesco, Sainsbury etc. I chanced a Co-op Chicken and ham pie when it was on special offer and was surprised how good it was. Have since had the steak one and just as good. Pastry's lovely and there's actually a good amount of meat in them unlike all the others including Pukka Pies.

[@Kari_B61ex]

I experienced this back in the 90s, I was a serviceman's wife and we shopped at the Naafi when we lived overseas - the Naafi is excellent but at the time there were a few things we couldn't buy... from memory they were British Bread, Tea Bags, clotted cream and cheddar cheese. We used to give our families a shopping list of things to bring over when they visit. Of course we loved seeing our families, but we also couldn't wait to get our hands on the treats from home.

[@missmerrily4830]

Same here for many years! I suppose the bread was British in one way as Naafi always made its own, certainly still in the mid to late 80s. Prior to that, it had its own industrial scale bakery in Krefeld but then withdrew to the UK (Wiltshire I believe) and distributed it to all European NAAFIs. I'm trying to recall one thing we always asked visitors to bring, but can't bring anything to mind. However it was incredibly good to be able to buy things like Atora suet right off the shelf wherever you were in the world. And I think the brand of bread in Hong Kong was from the local Garden Bakery?

[@THErealBRITSofFlorida]

dad was in the army and we lived in Germany for quite a few years and loved shopping at the NAAFI...:)

[@PecanBaby...]

Same here my dad was in the army so I was born into the life of moving every couple of years or so. I miss those days of shopping in the Naafi and when aboard you could just live entirely on the base, with everything provided for entertainment or you could venture outside if you like.

[@JacknVictor]

When coming to the UK again, try finding the discount shops such as home bargains, jack Fulton's, herons, bargain madness etc. If you wish to buy a Gaul of pot noodles, chocolate bars, snacks etc at prices way under what you will pay in places like Tesco etc then I would recommend searching out these places. For example chicolate hobnobs are 69p in home bargains . Most chocolate bars are between half and 2 thirds the price of supermarket prices, which goes for must products. Pot noodles are also about 69p on average in these places I would recommend you buy yourself a huge amount of stuff, and pay postage to send it to yourself back home, and you can then pick up from your local post office when you return home. Even with postage you would be saving a lot of money on UK supermarket prices. You will be saving even more money on the US UK food prices!

[@darrenuk]

In U.K. We normally have mint sauce with lamb Apple sauce with pork horseradish sauce goes with beef Salad cream normally goes with a salad ( lettuce tomato cucumber ect)

[@TheMagicGeekdom]

Oh, ok. Thanks!

[@johnd6487]

My mother loved salad cream but I was well into my teens before I’d even heard of mayonnaise.. then I read somewhere that salad cream is actually a fake substitute for mayo, created during the war when sourcing eggs was a big problem. War ended, but a lot of Brits had developed a taste for salad cream, and so it’s still a thing. But pretty much anything you’d think of putting Mayo into or onto you can use salad cream.

[@janetchamberlain1071]

Salad cream is good pretty much everywhere you'd use mayo. I like it with boiled eggs in a sandwich. Mint sauce - with roast lamb. I'd miss Henderson's relish, cunninghams picallili, cadbury's and galaxy chocolate, and the cheeses such as Wensleydale, white cheshire, red leicester. Soreen is supposed to be the consistency you described.

[@tonycasey3183]

I'm a Brit. I don't think I have ever made a sandwich without buttering the bread first.

As a Brit I can confirm that we almost always have butter in sandwiches when you buy them from a shop or cafe. One exception might be the cafe where you may get away with asking for no butter when ordering, but otherwise they pretty much always come with butter as default 😅 (I personally don't have butter, but that's just because I'm not a butter-fan anway 😂)

Good video and thank you for liking and trying British food. I'm from the UK and the one thing I couldn't do without is a bar of Cadburys Dairy Milk Chocolate. There is literally nothing else in the world as nice ( including Belgian chocolate). Dont get me wrong there are much higher qualities of chocolate available but there is just something magical about Cadburys Diary milk chocolate.

[@atlantean114]

I would recommend Derbyshire and the Peak District to you. It is one of our National Parks and contains some wonderful scenery. Don't miss the Crooked Spire in my home town of Chesterfield, the inland seaside resort of Matlock Bath, Chatsworth House and park and also Bakewell where you can try a Bakewell Pudding!

[@davidjackson2580]

I'd agree about the Peak District. The Blue John mines are very good, among other places. I'm just across the border is what I still consider Cheshire. Nearby, is Lyme Park, which is definitely worth a visit. It features in the 1995 BBC version of Pride and Prejudice, as the exterior of Pemberley. There are other old houses in Cheshire too; Tatton Park, Dunham Massey, Little Moreton Hall and several others. A more recent option is Jodrell Bank radio telescope. Well worth a look if you have any interest in astronomy. It's a local landmark; visible from many miles away.

[@klawlor3659]

Another thumbs up for the Peak District! Nice traditionally English vibes and very friendly. Also the exact opposite of the lake district; more workaday people and you're surrounded by local people who live and work there as opposed to the retired judges and southern Nimbys that tend to populate places in the lakes. Also recommend the Cotswolds, very friendly spot. Had one of my best holidays stopping in Chadlington a few years ago.

[@andys722]

as someone from Stoke on Trent, The Peak District is one of the best places in the UK, i think i've spent more leisure time there than anywhere else, walking, biking and wild camping around the roaches and surrounding area

[@domramsey]

It was interesting seeing the products in Publix. The packaging had weights in ounces with metric in brackets after, which indicates it was never made for sale in the UK. My guess is that these are products specifically made for export to the US to comply with different labelling regulations, but it could also mean that the recipes themselves are different from what we would get in the UK.

[@naomipetrie9126]

The violet crumble is the equivalent to the UK’s crunchie. I’m a Brit living here in the US and I miss all the Gregg’s foods, but the one product I miss is their walker flavor crisps. Also Campbells pork and beans is the closet thing to Heinz I buy here without breaking the bank lol

[@Airtrooper719]

Iceland started selling frozen Greggs pasties a while back. If you cook them right, they can taste almost the same as from the shop. I think they do Chicken Bake, Steak Bake and Sausage, Bean and Cheese Bakes.

[@Glassy1979]

To answer your question Cara; When I spent 18 months travelling the world in my 20’s the food I missed the most was the variety of crisps we sell here. And the meal I missed the most, the Sunday Roast with all the trimmings. That was 20 years ago though so may well be easier to find some of the stuff these days as your videos show!

Also, if you can make it to Birmingham on your next UK visit, that's a fairly central location for most people to get to if you were doing a meet up.

Salad cream with boiled eggs and salad. It's a thick dressing. Can also be used as a dip for celery sticks or spring onions. Branston pickle, ham sandwiches, cheese sandwiches. Mint sauce with roast lamb, not too much on the side of you plate, just a little.

[@garrytuohy9267]

Soreen does have a unique sticky consistency and in quite popular in the Manchester area, where is originated 100+ years ago. Fun Fact: Tayto invented the first flavoured crisp production process and the first seasoned crisps produced were Cheese & Onion!!! But it is great to see that there was Rice Pudding, Lemon Curd and a full range of Barry's Tea. Salad Cream was originally for salad, but these days it is mostly used in sandwiches. At one point Heinz planned to remane it Sandwich Cream but realized the error of their ways. Eventhough most kids will have made a sandwich at some point with Salad Cream as the only ingredient.

[@carolannnoble6651]

I remember when you got Smith's Crisps in a bag with a little blue twist containing the salt to sprinkle on them. I believe they made a come-back some years ago as a sort of gimmick but with the huge choice of ready salted and flavoured crips nowadays I don't think the novelty value lasted long.

I've never seen Bachelor's beans before, I've bought their peas though. I would like Warburton's bread if I was travelling. You're correct, salad cream is poured sparingly over salad, mint sauce is served with lamb on a roast dinner although my husband eats with any roast meat.

[@bigal6789]

I paid £3 in Tesco today for the Mini eggs Easter egg you paid $12.99 for. Yes, in the UK we spread a thin layer of butter on the bread in a sandwich. The salad cream can also be spread in a thin layer on top of the butter in your sandwich along with the fillings. ( Meats, Salad & eggs ) a substitute for mayonnaise.

I of course gifted the Marmite to her and did without for the rest of my trip. For the rest of my stay I got the best service possible from my new best friend.

I remember going to the corner shop when I was a kid to get my Gran's ciggies. 10 Black Cat ... lol. We still have what we describe as "corner shops" even though they're not on a corner. Usually run by Asian families who stay open all hours so probably more acurately described as convenience stores. I think most places have them situated away from the main town area as they are very handy when you don't want to get the car out for a pint of milk, etc.

I could never live without my Yorkshire Tea it is simply the best tea I have ever tried!

[@livestocknetwork320]

Apple sauce - pork. Mint sauce - lamb. Mustard or horseradish - beef. Salad cream - salad...

[@philhounam523]

I’m glad you visited a Publix as in my view they are the best Supermarket chain in the world. They have amazing choice, good quality, Deli counters to die for and always friendly helpful staff that like to have a laugh with you. I definitely miss them when in the US away from Florida & Georgia. Oh and they actually have cheese, something that’s not that easy to find in some other US supermarkets. I’m English living in England, when I go to other countries I buy the food of that country and give “The English Shop” a wide berth. Lastly try skipping Heinz Baked Beans and try Branston - you won’t switch back.

*Salad cream* it takes the humble cheese salad sandwich to a whole new level!!👌 has to be white sandwich bread butterd, then cheese and salad with lots of salad cream. Walkers crisps all Washed down with a cuppa tea😋👌 x

[@ThecovertCustomer]

Yorkshire Tea. Couldn’t live without it!

[@elaine4498]

Mint sauce with roast lamb, salad cream a bit like mayo, branston pickle in a chesse sandwich, all delicious

[@heatherlinnette189]

Mince sauces for roast lamb, but we generally put it on any roast dinner, vegetables. Salad cream is specifically for salads as a dressing.

[@markcoombe2996]

[@amnril]

Soreen,or malt loaf is exactly as you describe. If you keep eating it, over months you will love it.

[@misswales9229]

I've lived in Austria for 30 years, but I always need my bisto gravy granules, oxo cubes, sage and onion stuffing, allspice (to make Welshcakes), malt vinegar, worcester sauce and my yorkshire tea (or breakfast tea). Some things you can buy in Austria now, but most I buy from a fantastic online site - the British corner shop!! I can get amazing orders - especially for x-mas. I need my mince pies and x-mas pudding!!

[@Megajoe800]

Mint sauce is for lamb roast dinners Branston pickle can go in a sandwich and also can be used beside meats on a dinner plate. Salad cream can be used as an alternative to mayonnaise when making tuna but also can be used as a spread on a salad

[@chris1.2]

Salad cream is eaten with tuna fish or even better with tinned salmon. It’s something you dip a sandwich into with salad on the side. Branston pickle is eaten with cheese on a ploughman’s lunch which is a large salad with thick soft buttered bread.

[@arkonite]

The soreen texture you describe is spot on fresh. I love it with thick butter 😊

[@tinawhynot8893]

Great video - very interesting seeing what British products they have in the US. I am Canadian and have been to the UK many times and love it there. We have quite a few places that sell British products but the prices are high - I can’t bring myself to pay that much as I know what it costs in the UK. Sometimes I do treat myself to Branston Pickle, Wensleydale Cheese, PG Tips Tea and Galaxy Minstrels! Btw, we don’t put butter on a sandwich either - mayo or mustard or both.

[@nrjelley]

4:00 mint sauce is traditionally served with lamb. As you know, a Sunday Roast or Sunday Lunch is a big thing in the UK. Depending on what meat you use, you would use different condiments. If you're eating lamb, you would have mint sauce; if you're eating beef, you would have mustard or horseradish; if you're eating pork, you would have apple sauce; and if you're having chicken or turkey, you would have cranberry sauce.

[@user-sb8gz4py7y]

From a Brit in the NW of England, Double Deckers - manna from heaven. Try Soreen toasted with butter. It's meant to be squidgy and cloying but fresh it's delicious. You were ripped off ok the mini eggs Easter egg. You can normally buy them in any supermarket here for £1 or £1.50. Paying over $10 for one 😱! Love the videos. Love that you like some British stuff more than American stuff and appreciate the differences. Keep the videos coming.

[@catsmother4556]

Mint sauce is served with roast lamb. Yes drivel salad cream on your salad. The Branson pickle is great with cheddar or other hard cheese, either in a sandwich or crackers. I always put butter on a sandwich. And that is butter on both pieces of bread.

[@skipaiotter]

Mint sauce goes with lamb. Branston Pickle goes with cheese, be it together or you can make a cheese & pickle sandwich, hard sliced cheese. But can be done with soft cheese/onion type sandwich filling. Salad cream is well, you put it on salads, some may use it as a covering over chips (fries), something to dip in, breadsticks and if you want to use it as a starter for some dip by adding something else to it. Salad cream can also be used with boiled eggs if you want a salad cream egg mayo type sandwich filling but you use salad cream than mayo.

[@Sandysand701]

Chocolate HobNobs are under £2 in the UK, not £3 like apple sauce with pork, mint sauce (often mixed with malt vinegar) goes over roast lamb.

[@jamespasifull]

Tayto cheese & onion crisps are amazing! Great on sandwiches!! 😋

[@maryhassan7462]

Mint sauce- lamb Horseradish/mustard- beef Apple sauce- pork Cranberry- Turkey Branson pickle-Cheese

[@Ade_1]

Hi from Wales, UK The malt loaf should definitely be toasted. So much better still warm 💯

[@cafenajatuk8304]

Salad cream is a sauce for salad or sandwiches, goes great with tomatoes & boiled eggs. Mint sauce goes with roast or grilled lamb

[@TishArtMa]

Love double deckers and bo day bad boy before they thickened the noodle those beef n onion tayto I think are never heard of em and wow your Awesome x Infinite Love 💕 from UK 💝🌹

[@hildajenkins9497]

You have mint sauce or mint jelly with roast lamb. Branston pickle goes well with cold meats and cheese. A cheese and pickle sandwich is delicious. Salad cream as you so rightly say is to drizzle on salad, it's also good to mix with chopped hard boiled egg instead of mayonnaise.

[@kieranthompson3543]

Also the malt loaf sounds about right with how you described. Thats how it should be 😊

[@alecquail9275]

How nice to include your dog in your next visit. I’m sure they’ll love it. Good luck navigating the myriad rules and requirements for 1. Importing a dog to Europe, and 2. Moving the dog between Europe and UK😉. Make sure you’re up to date with the rules and you factor in the necessary veterinarian visits. It’ll be interesting to hear how you get on.

[@daynegilbey3674]

Your malt loaf sounds exactly how malt loaf always tastes so you’re good. Tayto crisps are Irish and unless they’re plain, no good. Picnic Bar is something I didn’t know I missed from the UK until you bought one so thanks for that 🥲

[@dizzycowuk]

You have mint sauce with lamb, branston pickle with cheese typically. Salad cream you can have with anything. It's nice with chips.

[@jameslefrancois461]

Mint sauce is generally a condiment for lamb and salad cream can be used in salad but most people put it on sandwiches.

[@Iori.Thomas]

Welsh guy in Wales UK here just found your channel when you're in the UK definitely visit the isle of anglesey and go up to holyhead mountain and south stack light house beautiful views and loads of walks you can do .

[@reubenwaring]

Mint sauce is usually eaten with Lamb. But as I’m from Nottingham, we also love it on Mushy Peas!

[@leighnisbett9691]

Mint sauce goes with roast lamb ,Branson pickles go on sandwiches with cheese or other fillings ,salad cream goes on sandwiches ,wraps and salads as a sauce ,marmite is Australian .

[@av9109]

I couldn't live without wine gums, Irn-Bru, Yorkshire gold tea, and custard tarts.

[@privateprivate9285]

The prices are crazy expensive!🇬🇧 Salad cream, yum, always on a fresh salad!

[@Trueo9re]

Mint goes with lamb, it's up to you how you have the mint sauce. Some mix them in mash to give them an extra kick, or put it as a blob on your plate and dip lamb into it. Salad cream is indeed for salads, generally it's poured over your salad, but it's up to you how much you want on your salad. Drizzle, or drown.
