[@emanymton713]

The trick to filling a slurpee/icee whatever the brand may be called is put the lid on the cup first. Then fill it. It’s going to be the same price no matter what but the extra surface area of the lid helps you hold more.

7-11 has a cool history: Started in 1927 in Dallas selling just ice as the Southland Ice Company. Later added eggs, milk, bread, etc. The funny thing was some store(s) in Austin during the 60s changed from 7AM-11 PM to 24-hours because of the nearby University of Texas campus and their football games causing late night demand.

[@patrickchambers5999]

From the hours of 7AM to 11 PM you get their original name.

[@Camie.in.Philly]

Lol that's so funny. I always thought 7/11 was a Philadelphia invention. They used to be all over the place when I was a kid. They'd went out of favor when Wawa came along but the last few years they seem to be making a comeback. They're not building many new ones but improving on the old.

[@pigs18]

O. Henry is the pen name of William Sydney Porter, an American short story writer of the late 19th/early 20th century. The candy bar is just a pun on his pseudonym.

the explanation I like best is that there was an electrician at the candy company that made chocolate bars who flirted with the girls that worked there and that O Henry was the response they gave when he flirted.

When you're a little kid 7-11 is for Twinkies and gum, as a teen .... the same. Eighteen? tobacco products. Twenty-one? beer. That's basically the order of things. It's a glorified snack shop/beer-run destination. Some have gas/petrol too.

[@hkonyt797]

In the '80's and '90's (back when I used go to 7/11's) It was all about the coffee. 7/11 used to take great pride in the quality and freshness of their coffee, at least in NY they did. People would vote which one had the best coffee and that particular store would display it with pride. Another point of pride was neatness/cleanliness. I don't think they care as much about the coffee and cleanliness anymore. I can't even find a 7/11 here (in ME) anymore. They all closed.

[@emanymton713]

I think I’m just as invested as Lia to find out which crackers they were at this point…

[@maryannebrown2385]

Me too! I am sure they are club crackers.

[@djg5950]

Same. I want to send her 10 different boxes of crackers so she can try each kind and figure out what they were. MaryAnne, she said square so that rules out Club crackers. A while back when she was talking about them I thought Club, too because of the different taste of those. Club crackers are rectangle shaped with rounded corners. Not what you'd call square. Maybe she's forgotten the shape with trying so many different ones ? If she explained the taste better we might be able to figure it out. Club = buttery, Saltines & Premium = dry and not much flavor.

[@maryannebrown2385]

@@djg5950 I swear in one of her earlier quest videos she said rectangle, which clicked in my brain immediately, “club crackers”! That, combined with the comment about the buttery taste. It just has to be. I feel like clearing off the whole cracker shelf, boxing it up and shipping it to England.

[@djg5950]

Reading other comments maybe I was thinking of Town House Crackers (more oval shaped). I don't eat many crackers not really a fan so I've forgotten the differences. It's been over 40 years since I had a Saltine, Club cracker, Town House cracker or Ritz cracker. I do buy Oyster Crackers to add to chowder that's about it. Oh, and eat Pepperidge Farm Goldfish !! Love those.

[@djg5950]

@@maryannebrown2385 Ha ha ! Same. 50 lbs of crackers heading her way. I don't eat crackers except Goldfish but have tried them all at least once. I never liked Ritz. Club was ok. Aren't they the rectangle ones ? And the ovalish ones are Town House. Ritz are the most different flavored. Club and Town House are similar but not the same. Very different from Saltines. I think if she had a box of Town House and a box of Club it would be one of those. Better than Saltines or Ritz. How many freaking crackers do we make anyway ??? No wonder she's confused.

[@kimberlywilson7929]

It's called 7-11 because, when it came out, most stores were only open from 9 AM to 5 or 6 PM, so it was impressive to be open from 7AM to 11 PM. Now it never closes, even on major holidays.

The secret to why we love Slushies is that they are so good at cooling you down on a hot summer day, when the temps are over 100, nothing cools you off faster.... When I worked at Burger King I would walk from the bus stop to work, about 3 blocks, in summer it would be over 100, I would get to work maybe 20 minutes early, immediately grab a slushie, and walk into the freezer and drink it over the course of like 10 minutes, by the time I walked out and started getting ready for my shift it was as if it was a pleasant fall day, I was cooled inside and out, and felt great.

The origin of 7-ELEVEN has nothing to do with items costing $7 or $11. It had to do with its open hours, from 7 in the morning until 11 in the evening. Back in the 1960s, when it became popular in the USA, many stores didn't open until later in the morning, like 9:00 AM, and they closed by 7:00 PM. So being open for those hours was a huge improvement over most other stores at the time.

The store was named after its store hours… from 7AM until 11PM. Prior to the 70’s store hours usually opened from 10AM until 6PM. It was revolutionize to open so early that you could get gas & coffee before going to work & close late enough to catch munchies.

[@dotell8925]

Agree....I'm still laughing.

[@jencynnn6886]

I think this is just a sign of the times but when someone’s mask does not cover their nose; I cringe Um, love you both 😍

[@carrieg7185]

It doesn't bother me.

[@amandagoodman1272]

@Jen_Cynnn That was driving me NUTS!!

[@elauraesamarillo]

You sound like you had Keebler brand Club Crackers.

[@kelly1827]

Oooh, you might be right on that!

[@marthadeleon1566]

I laughed so much at this!!! Oh Henry!!! 😂

[@joannebaker4925]

7-11's are an American staple. It's a catch all mini store providing the basics, milk eggs, sugar. Then there is gas ⛽ and all of the in-between items. Most 7-11 are open 24 hrs which is great for late night and early mornings runs for basic items.

[@barbarakiewe2870]

Please tell me you left the open pack of crackers on the edge of the bin.

[@moonmist3312]

😆😆😆

[@nylarbed]

Confession here. I know the history of saltine crackers because of Lia. I don't think she had saltines of any brand, but a different cracker. Saltines are so old of a style that I really don't think there is any difference except whether they are fresh or not.

[@santamonica4995]

Hearing you two discuss 7/11 cuisine in the most posh accents was the highlight of my night 😂

[@tschrad4266]

Your description of how that taquito tastes is spot on. It’s absolute trash but so good at the same time. Also I have never seen that type of Oh Henry bar. The other one is the OG. I have to find that PB one. ❤️ So glad you all are here at this time of year. Are you going to be here for Thanksgiving?

[@ericheller553]

I would never eat 7-11 food but they are known for their drinks.

[@FourStrongWinds4]

Try Town House crackers. They have a different type of taste.

[@breezelady]

Love this video! It's fun to see things we're so used to in the eyes of people for whom it's a wonder because it's their first time. Joel you really should go back and get some jerky or dried beef sticks. They are wonderfully addictive and what helped people survive long treks through the wilderness. (You need strong jaws, though.) The best ones can be found at a good butcher shop. Those are freshly made. Slushies are wonderful on a HOT day. Not so much on a cold windy one. And yes, you need to sip, not take a big slurp, cause brain freeze hurts!

[@EEVOL]

Omggggggg lol I adore Lia, she’s hilarious. You guys have such great chemistry.

[@tubermind]

As Americans, we know what the worst places to eat already are. And yes, we are ashamed of them. And a good many of us just avoid them. It's unfortunate that you may never know what excellent regional cooking is really like in America. It's not at many restaurants. It's definitely not in fast-food. It's made at home from the broad range of cookbooks available in our country. It comes from recipes handed down from generation to generation. And a very good place to find some I understand is at the many Goodwill's and thrift shops in just about any city. Often KZbin videos will have cooking tips, recipes and classes. I hope you get to have some real American home cooking someday!!

[@doratiscareno5856]

KZbin YOEL AND MARI TRY NOT TO CRY😭 START AT THE BEGINNING VIDEOS

[@bobbbxxx]

There is a lot of junky food in the UK as well, and a fair share of really bad cooking. No country has a monopoly on that ! 😅

[@elizabethfreeman9907]

Ya'll need to find a Buc-ees!!!!

[@HeWhoComments]

Buc-ees has really good food and snacks!

[@kelly1827]

I'm almost positive they went to Buc-cee's when they were in TX. I know they went on a tour at HEB.

[@moonmist3312]

Buc-eee's pulled pork sandwich! The best!!!

[@HeWhoComments]

@@moonmist3312 yeeees!

[@HeWhoComments]

@@kelly1827 thanks for letting us know!

[@tracyjohnson4486]

Oh my gosh! Y'all have me laughing so much my sides are hurting!!!!!

[@bigdog44pc]

Not only is the ice cream individually boxed but also individually wrapped as well, the best of both worlds.

[@a7gx]

Why not you contact the AirBnB to ask them

[@barbarakiewe2870]

I think it was like 3 years ago, but I agree, can't hurt to ask.

[@edwardteach2625]

Try original Club crackers. Used to be Keebler but now Kellogg.

[@patriotmom2342]

LOL So FUNNY! Who would every think 7 or 11 means price. Time does confuse some people that has travel time as Joey & Lia. So Cute

[@creech444]

There used to be a ton of 7-11s in the U.S but very few are left. They're mainly just in Asia now. The big one here is Quick Trip (at least here in the South), they're very clean and nicely kept. A lot of gas stations have their own convenience stores.

[@terryomalley1974]

Since the 7-11 in the video was in Toronto shouldn't the thumbnail have a Canadian flag instead of an American flag on it? The boneless wings 7-11 sells are pretty good for a convenience store. Oh Henrychocolate bars have existed in Canada for a long time. The addition of Reeces pieces is a recent combination. I'll bet it's tasty, though have never tried it.

[@americathebeautifulforever9746]

Why there is a British flag. The Queen of England owns 90% of Canada. And 7/11 and everything in it is American. Look Mr proud Canadian, there are beautiful places in Canada, but I doubt they will ever go back. Toronto is like NYC without the excitement, and it's just too cold. Who wants to freeze when you can be in paradise in the tropics. Besides there are tons of great things to see and do in the United States, and this is where they make their money. They said long ago over 90% of their followers are from the USA, and KZbin is American. Canada gives them nothing. The United States gives them everything!

[@barbarakiewe2870]

Slooshee gives me meegrain.

[@leahsawyer8094]

When I was growing up, there was a 7-11 near my house and my mother told me that it meant they were only open from 7am to 11pm. Back in those days, grocery stores were closed after I think 6 or 7pm and this was a little shop you could get beer, cokes, chips, candy, etc....at and it was a gas station too.

[@missred4975]

I have a 7-Eleven right by my house and when I was pregnant they were a dream come true. The night crew was always so nice and would make me fresh hotdogs or taquitos at 1am. Pro tip: Avoid the nacho cheese 😆

[@kathewright5619]

Oh God! Now my husband is addicted to your blogs... Lia, the crackers you are looking for may be Club Crackers. Very buttery. Addictive, even!

[@dougwheeler1265]

This was hilarious! I want some more please.

[@Jessica-qi9js]

This one was hilarious 😂😂😂 I never knew you could make going to a 711 so funny! I feel embarrassed to say this, but if you catch a fresh made 🍕 slice from 711 (made right after being frozen 😂) its not the worst thing either! Sometimes I’m here for it when I’m starving!
