Ranking BEST to WORST Christmas Treats: Taste Test!

[@Tinkerbell18645]

I love how Cam just immediately slapped it away, as soon as it hit the table! 🤣

Cam swatting that fruitcake away in less than a second of hitting the table is my favorite part of this video. I watched that part alone 10 times. Still funny

How’d Christmas go?

[@brendarolf2296]

The reason the Reeses trees are so good is because the company makes them with a better grade of chocolate!! They do the same for all their seasonal treats!!

[@addyprince9153]

brenda that’s interesting. To me it’s Bc the chocolate is thinner and there is more peanut butter stuff

[@kylieweaver4851]

They still have the huge metal popcorn bins here in Canada separated by the cardboard dividers. But it's only 3 flavours and I don't ever recall seeing the 5 different flavour one. The last one I had was cheddar, plain buttered and caramel/toffee nut! Now those I agree are Nostalgia for sure!

[@gloriapaddock4618]

I love fruitcake but it has to be homemade,the bought ones are usually dry. Don’t like popcorn but it isn’t a staple for Christmas in Australia. Plum pudding and custard for dessert. I love Christmas. All the children and grandchildren are grown up but we have so much fun. Eggnog is nice. Summer is here now,we are going to have a hot one. I love watching you guys try different things. I wish you and your family a very merry Christmas. Stay safe and warm.💕💕💕💕💕

[@snowfire5050]

I like fruitcake especially the dark one . My mother and Grandmother made the BEST fruitcake ever. At Christmas, our house smelled like gingerbread and fruitcake with a heavy sprinkling of pine (sigh) Oh the smells of a child's Christmas! BTW I LOVE your videos. I don't think I have laughed so hard as when I watch you two "try it" Please keep up the good work. Have the best Christmas and very Happy New Year! Love from Canada

Man 10/10 agree with you! My Grandmother's fruitcake was amazing. And probably flammable.

[@Nenezilla]

I loved only my grandmother's fruitcake....she put more nuts and less fruit in it. She's been gone 22 years now and so miss it!

[@Purplepixie42]

I had a friend send me a fruitcake from London, when she was at Oxford. It had currants and dried candied peel and lots of rum. It was amazing. I love a good fruitcake and a good gingerbread!

[@linnjeanette]

I like that the cookies are the same for grandmas all over the world. I know we had the blue tin in Norway too

[@stephaniebryant3]

Queen Anne was my grandfather's favorite candy. I can only eat one because it's so sweet. But I think of him everytime I see them.

[@kaylamagill4764]

The Dutch shortbread cookies are my favorite! Love your reactions keep the videos coming

[@dantastepp7413]

Ok, here's the deal with fruit cake. It has to be home made. THEN you drag out your run, baste the cake with rum, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, I mean no air. Store it in a dark cool spot ( my Mother used the top of a closet). Once a week, unwrap it, baste it in rim, rewrap. If the cake is getting too wet, let it dry some. You can do this for about a month or longer. That run makes that cake!

[@mandimoo87]

Christmas cake is a lot darker than what they had too. And is topped with marzipan and royal or fondant icing

[@cyndllloyd2947]

Fruitcake is actually pretty good as french toast for breakfast, or as bread pudding for dessert. Trust me, I'm a great grandmother, I've been doing this for years. :D

[@auntiea2002]

Panettone is the best for toast or French toast.

[@JadedKate]

@@auntiea2002 french toast is best made with stale brioche. The dryness makes it better for soaking up the egg mixture. (that's why people made french toast, so that no bread would be wasted.)

[@patriciapeart5752]

Fruit cake....you soak it in rum for a month and every week you pour more rum on it. Then by Christmas you can eat it. That is the English way to eat it. You don't just start eating fruit cake....it is mentioned to be soaked in rum....please try it the propper way.

[@pm1660]

Wow, that's an excellent idea!

[@ebantink4843]

if you have a rumtopf - then third of a cup every week, same with christmas pudding, and then the fruit is swollen and rich, and the cherries (them red things) are too delicious

I hate dried fruits and dont drink alcohol because its awful, but a christmas pudding isnt proper unless you can light it on fire with alcohol, whether alcohol poured on pudding then lit, or alcohol on fire and poured while on fire. Should be how its done. Drenched in alcohol and on fire before you serve

Thank you to you both for the laugh you gave me watching this I'm laid in bed in pain and laughing hurts but it's worth it. My gran always threw a Christmas tree party as she called it when I was little for my brother cousins and myself on Xmas eve (personally I think it was just an excuse for the adults to get drunk before the kids went to bed lol) every now and again she'd stop the music and shout prezzie time and give us all an extra gift we each ended up with at least 5 or more and there was 5 of us we were already going to be spoiled the next day. She also used to send me a bag of gifts when I was in the hospital each time so I had something to look forward to every day instead of being scared. She's gone now bless her but its a memory of her I treasure. its board games and films now and we are the ones getting drunk lol

[@jaimebh30]

The popcorn tub is a classic. Caramel and cheddar are my favorite. I love the butter cookies and my grandma always had them.

[@Egyptmania3000]

Hey guys! So I have a somewhat crazy food fave that's been a family tradition during the holidays since I can remember. It might sound gross/weird whatever but I LOVE IT. Get a stalk of celery, a block of Philly Cream Cheese (let sit at room temperature) and dice up some Green Spanish Olives. Regular Green Olives will do too. Once the celery has been washed and dried, cut them to about 3-4" long and set aside. Mix the cream cheese and olives together (it's easier to do with a fork) then spread it on the celery and enjoy. U can make this the day before and leave in the fridge to let the flavors marry each other or go ahead and eat fresh. Either way it's DELICIOUS.

Those Queen Anne’s chocolate-covered cherries are among my all-time favorite sweets ever! 🍒 I don’t at all associate them with Christmas, though, as they’re available all year. And the Russel Stover (dark) chocolate-covered marshmallow “Santas” are my second favorites from your selection.🎅 I especially love their “eggs” around Easter, both marshmallows and creams. 🐣 Being first generation Cuban-Spanish American, what I most associate with Christmas, which is really to say Nochebuena, are Cuban _buñuelos,_ which you’ll need to look up because they’re a bit complicated to describe, and Spanish _turrón,_ but not the type you tried. I have three must-have _turrónes_ for Nochebuena: _turrón blando,_ or “soft turrón,” based on peanuts; _turrón de yema,_ or “egg-yolk turrón,” not toasted, which is basically Spanish marzipan; and a newfangled _turrón de mousse de chocolate al cointreau,_ or “chocolate mousse with cointreau turrón,” a divinity aptly expressed by the very name.
