African Americans Try South African Snacks For The First Time

[@MosesMatsepane]

Never ever buy packaged Biltong, that’s blasphemy. 😂You buy Biltong from a butchery, and it must come in a brown paper bag. That packaged stuff is nasty…🤢

[@warona3677]

Lol oooh yes

[@abster4709]

Facts! And if you like spicy, get some Chilli slices too

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

😂😂 okay we will have to go check that out

[@Kohai.9]

Facts

[@juciyjcurtis7938]

And get plain wet and fat biltong , then get dry flavored biltong

[@stefantheunissen1123]

I almost died when I saw the prepackaged biltong... go to a butchery, and ask for biltong, the wetter and the fattier the better. And the fat must be yellow. Other snacks you can try are Koeksisters (once again not prepackaged but fresh,) Spookies (if you can find them) And of course you have to try Ouma Rusks... Then I want to thank you for showing our country in such a beautiful light. As South Africans we always see the doom and gloom of our country, it's nice that people can still get excited about the little things we look past every day

[@Sibusisiwe_LM]

​​@@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE I've put a lot of thought into my recommendations. Instead of ranking them, I'll give you categories & rank that way. 1. Chips - Green(chutney) Nik Naks - Sweet Chilli Frittos - Pink Stylos 2. Biscuits - Cape Cookies Romeo Delights (I've never tasted cookies more delicious in much life!! Trust me on this! If you can't find them, then Romany Creams are also nice) - eat-sum-mor biscuits - 3. Chocolates - 5 star - Lunchbar - Nikki 4. Drinks - Kingsley cranberry soda - Amarula - Red Grapetizer 5. General - Diddle Daddle caramel corn - Pink Fizzer - Malva Pudding (topped with custard) (must be warm) Milk Tart

[@desmondmashiri1975]

Caramel corn hits hard

[@CharlotteThabiso]

​@@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE please try PS, Lunch Bar Cheese curls, Tex, smarties, rusks (dip them in coffee or tea), fizzer,

[@charleneclaassen]

You have to try Ouma Buttermilk Rusks. DIP IT IN WARM COFFEE OR TEA (just a small piece at a time) until softened and then eat it like cookies. Ultimate winter comfort snack. Cheese Niknaks. Cadbury Milk Chocolate. Dipped Flake. Peppermint Crisp. Oh boy. Shaking my head on the biltong and snapstix selection. Please buy fresh biltong (the type that gets weighed). Beige pieces stuck on surface is probably coarse coriander. You have very 'spicy' pallets. I think you will enjoy Simba Ghost Pops and Doritos. For us Simba chips is not bland at all. Too much seasoning will turn most of these flavours into very unhealthy snacks. We have cheap chips brands that are so full of colourants and 'seasonings', that the children walk around with stained tongues. Those are very flavourful of course and extremely unhealthy. Also, please try milk tart,the type that has cinnamon sprinkled on top, and the baked type as well. Enjoy.

[@WGoutdoors]

Just a Disclaimer: If you tell any South African that knows what Jerky is as well that Biltong is the same as beef jerky they might just fight you🤣. The process is very different in making the 2 and quality biltong is by far better than Jerky (in my biased South African opinion😁). Regardless though great video and thanks for trying our snacks! But yeah go to a nice butcher and ask for "Geelvet Biltong" that is still slightly wet (or it can be bone dry that is all preference). And also ask for Droëwors and chili-bites. You can technically make a whole episode of the kinds of biltong and dried meat goodies we as South Africans produce.

[@Steve-go6oq]

I've had jerky, not a fan. Now proper biltong with a solid meat to fat ratio I'll eat any day!

[@ShaqleeToine10.02]

Buy biltong from butcheries, preferably “white-owned shops” 😅 they sell the best biltong. Also please try Speckled eggs, zoo-animal cookies, some SA fizzy drinks, and tennis biscuits.

Here's a shopping list too redeem yourself: Ask around, everyone in SA has their Best Butchers, which if budget permits, they'll buy at always. When you're there: * Ask for a selection of biltong. Not just dry/medium/wet... They differ in taste quite a bit. * Droëwors. Plain. Nothing with the word 'stick' in it. Also if they've got a Thick version, grab a small piece. Some butchers have their special recipies. (Be sure to confirm pork content though.) * If you're up for it, some(most?) have, what is often called a "babelas mix"... It's an amazing mix of all the odd-bits, in weighing packaging, with some extra spice.

Don't buy biltong out a sealed bag - get biltong from a biltong store in a brown paper bag - those are the best, it's usually more expensive though, but well worth it. Try the chili biltong if you like spice. Also, it's pronounced "Mah-ree Biscuit" - it's one of our South African legendary treats. We usually eat them with margarine. Basically, you wanna make an Oreo with them with margarine in the center and then dip it in tea. Well, at least this is the way we eat them in KZN.

She did mention in one video that she’s got allergies/Sinus issues. I stand to be corrected…

[@antslim168]

Biltong thin sliced with yellow fat from a butcher is best

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

Sounds good

[@ecassanova2315]

Oh and I heard you guys mention church in this video. If you guys are ever interested please come to City Hope Church. It’s not too far from you guys either.

The best biltong and droewors is not find in retailers like checkers and picknpay or Woolies...best you will find in a biltong shop, biltong factory or at the local butcher...

We normally give the Marie biscuits to the babies to suckle on.

Good to know

Next time in South Africa, buy your Biltong (the convenience type) from Kalahari Biltong store, you will not be disappointed.

You want to get biltong from a proper butchery, not Pick n Pay - and yes, you can find it in pepper flavour, it just isn't that common. Did you try rusks? Make sure you dip them in your tea/coffee or they'll destroy your teeth. Milk tart is another iconic South African dessert. Marie biscuits are great for making smores - not iconically South Africa, but a great after-braai snack using South African biscuits. If you go to Durban or Cape Town, both have their own iconic dishes that aren't as easy to find in JHB - a bunny chow is iconic, but hard to find a good one in JHB. Cape Malay curries are also really good, but hard to find outside of the Cape.

What about slap chips...and different brand chips...lays and willards...that biltong in vacuumed packs probably like american beef jerky...you need freshly sliced at a butcher...and milk tart...mini tartlets.

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

Thanks for the recommendation

[@kgomotsobaloyi9622]

Now I'm hungry for snacks...

[@FREEDOMCHASERSLIFE]

😂😂😂

Simba is always good stuff. that company has been around all my life (I'm grey already) When I was a kid a small packet was 2 cents. It is a shame they didn't send you the tomato flavour one too... I love the salt and vinegar ones sometimes. They should also send you WIlsons Creme caramels... those have also been on the market for ages.....

[@gusvisser9043]

for Biltong and Dreowors you -don't- go to a brand, you go to a Butcher shop. The Branded stuff is factory made. The Butcher shop quality stuff you'll have to head out of the cities.

prepackaged biltong is not it guys, this is a very limited range of our snacks. that taste of chips is authenticity.
