Y’all have to be the cutest couple on KZbin, both personalities and looks.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

aww thank you

[@hippieista7323]

The best budget thing I’ve found is cooking dried beans in the pressure cooker and portioning them into baggies and put in freezer. No cans. Plus you can season them the way you like.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

YESSS!

[@PurpleCows]

I do this but put them in small containers bc I try to lower my plastic waste :)

[@thatveganchick668]

I do the same thing. I also do this with lentils, rice, quinoa, etc. so I have no excuses like being “too tired to cook”. 😄

[@PeaceRose96]

i think an underrated part of your videos that i always love is how unfiltered you guys are!! you don't cut the cameras and try to get all serious like it's just all goofing around, trying snacks, so laid back!! that's the style youtube needs!! i'm not looking for super serious food reviews😅 you guys could always make me laugh, even after a long day of work

[@PurpleCows]

I would LOVE to see a video of you guys making meals from dollar tree stuff!!!!

[@margarett_b]

The initial, intro part is just pure bliss. I am not going to lie, it was hard to watch after a wisdom tooth extraction because laughing hurts and I had to hold my jaw but it was worth it. Guys, you are so raw and hilarious I simply adore you - no food content can compare to yours because of the humoristic touch you add to your videos! . Thanks for making my day better! Lots and lots of love for the whole MIDF family!

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Oh no, I hope you feel better

[@margarett_b]

@@MakeItDairyFree I do! You cheered me up a lot :D

[@rn2787]

I just found the onion rings at Dollar Tree a few months ago and I was ecstatic. I loved Funyuns before going vegan so it was a massive win.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

So good!

[@victoriam9242]

I also loved funyuns. Apparently these are on back order right now but I’ll get some eventually!!

[@rn2787]

@@victoriam9242 I just check once a week. I usually have to go anyway.

[@katcrafter6081]

Love your guys banter with each other! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@mishannallsmig5336]

A new year and I don't know if I can keep watching your channel...... just messin' with ya, y'all are frickin hysterical and still have a great dynamic! Thanks for all that y'all put forth! BTW, I have been in several Family Dollar and Dollar Tree stores, as I deliver to them, more so Family Dollar stores. Because the two of them are owned by the same company now, some Family Dollar stores will carry Dollar Tree products, such as individually wrapped vegetable egg rolls. According to the ingredient list, there's no eggs or other animal based ingredients that I have noticed. I believe that the brand is Imperial and the wrappers are green. Considering that they're a dollar each, I personally am grateful for the occasional variety in my vegetarian trucker's life food choices. Each package includes a packet of duck sauce. Personally, I toss the duck sauce, because I prefer to use my bottle of Bragg Liquid Aminos. Anyways, excellent video! See y'all around the Tube 👍

[@kathleenbefittwell8179]

It's always amusing watching you two try new things 😄 Thank you!!

[@MakeItDairyFree]

hahaha thanks!

[@RavensWingTarot]

I was at a Dollar Tree in Louisiana and it was HUGE and luxury. I could've spent $100 😄

[@wendy9599]

How was the dollar tree luxury?

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

The crunch sounds good

[@user-ep3wl1kh2i]

hey guys I missed these types of videos! Happy New Years btw 🦋

[@stinamoon9845]

Thank you for this! I have a lot of patients that want to eat healthy and have low access to grocery stores but have dollar stores down the road and I always suggest for them to try it and they would be surprised.

[@mistyweber931]

Hi, love watching you two and i even recommended to my sister in law. I really like how you include corn in when you read off the allergies since i am one of them odd ppl that can't have corn.

[@labrat5457]

this is probably my fav vegan channel

[@danabrown6341]

Ya'll are so entertaining. Just luv ya both. BTW, Larissa won the popcorn toss!

[@beautifulyas]

Y'all are hilarious 😂, just subbed! 👍🏾

[@thousandsunnysink]

Love!

[@inagadda1976]

The spring rolls are my staple! I buy 5 packs at a time

[@libralady0220]

The spring rolls are the BOMB!!! You have to get at least 5 packs because they are that good!! ❤😊👌🏾

[@ladyfashionsoul]

Agreed! Always buy those

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Wish we could have found them!

[@Martina_E]

I have to try those

[@mburns4551]

Greatful for information like this. You guys are helping to change the world 🌎 🙏💚🌿🌱🧘🏽‍♂️🙏🌞☮👽

[@allisonhall8654]

Andrew was acting up in this video! Lol Thanks for the tips! I will definitely be checking out the dollar tree near me

[@nenairby3167]

Thanks so much for this information. I at the dollar tree all the time. ❤️

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Nice!

[@Dreamysunshine23]

They have been closing many of the Dollar Trees around my way and the ones that are still I open all items are $1.25... regardless its still one of my favorite places to shop plus knowing they have movie popcorn I'm definitely going to go look for that... I love me some popcorn lol... another great video... thanks 😊... oh and i love the new hair color Larisha... forgive me if I misspelled it😫

[@YadhGood]

You guys are the best team of vegan taste test!!!!

[@Elaine-ee1eh]

The first 2 minutes y’all got me cracking up 🤣 🤣🤣 “Dollar General Tree no just the Tree”. Andrew you funny by accident 😂

[@seciliafeliz]

You're thinking of Hostess. Tasty does have a chocolate filled cupcake and those butterscotch Krimpets! Tasty Cake used to be my jam!

[@ashleytchannel5403]

I’d love to you try making vegan meals from dollar tree products. Especially healthier ones! 😍

[@thaleia81]

Ya’ll are so awesome!

[@jomams1040]

Larisa love how you always on the go LOL😊

[@MakeItDairyFree]

:)

[@keepingitreal9469]

Now I want a icee and popcorn! Thanks y'all

[@tamcon72]

I like how at 14:53 Larisha just lets the "Dollar General Tree" thing go, because what's the point? : ) I am surprised by the variety here, because I haven't see anything like this at the two or three Dollar Trees I've occasionally gone to. There's one across the street from where I am now, and I've only been there once and not to the food section, so I'll take a look next time, for the fruit pie and soft pretzels, because I haven't had either since going vegan years go! Thanks for posting!

[@OhhNaturel]

Andrew is crazy! 😆 "Yo! This is crazy yo!" & the facial expressions! He was mad about that pie! Too funny! I don't like cooked fruit either except Peaches...

[@AnaEdelinda]

Loooooove your channel!!!!. I am new to the vegan world. I have a question. What are y'all vegan pantry essentials for new vegans? Thank you

[@HelloGregoryOfficial]

Yesss Tasty Cakes makes the Hostess-style cupcakes!

[@kimd8873]

Hi - Any reason why it may contain soy? I would ask the same question for the corn. 😮 Bless you and yours!!!!

[@andriadeane4634]

Loma is a no for me too. I found it at my local grocery store but I did not like the taste either. Happy New Year!!

[@e.m.8094]

I can't get enough of those onion ring chips! A great substitute for Funyuns. I also tried the hot version, but the flavor wasn't as good in my opinion. 🤔

[@cartiercaviar]

Plz Try WICKED PRODUCTS NEXT ; love y’all for real 🥰🥰

[@fcasey8476]

Andrew you said if you wanted junk food cheap, the Dollar General Tree is where you’re going, of course you meant Dollar Tree with no general, I love your videos. Our Dollar Tree doesn’t have much variety in foods and snacks.

[@monicamiller4830]

those veggie burgers r super good i add some vegan cheese instead of bread i use rice cakes, and also the luma brand plant based tuns is super good mine is orginal i make plant based tuna salad its so cool topped on rice cakes

[@amyp5388]

Great precise intro Andrew 🤣 dollar general tree hahaha

[@MakeItDairyFree]

lol thanks

[@user-nw4kk1hx6c]

😊 awesomeness

[@ElenaChristinne]

Try Loma Linda Hawaiian bowl. We tend to always perzonalize these things and not eat them as it is, it's always missing some flavor for me.

[@pennywise8919]

Love Dollar Tree finds! The crust is awesome, but those burgers and veggie balls are gross!! You guys are awesome, thanks again for all you do!! 😊👍👏

[@joellejones987]

I don’t like cooked fruit either 😣Love your videos. 🥰

[@christopherclayton7688]

I went to a whole bunch of Dollar Tree stores in Philly, and none of them have the Brimm's popcorn. I go outside of Philly to a store, not even thinking about the popcorn and bam, they got it....and yes it is good!

[@JacquelineDujour]

I like the Loma rice. The Greek bowl and the one with pineapple. Everybody's tastebuds are different. I will look for the spring rolls next.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Glad you enjoy them!

[@cecraft3]

Honestly Tasty Kake, Little Debbie and Hostess had them. I believe the snack cakes you’re referring to are from Hostess in that plastic bag. They had the chocolate and then vanilla ones with the yellow top and wiggly line on top. But they all had their spin on those cup cakes.

[@redizrad]

You guys should do some creative meals from the dollar tree like you kind of talked about in the video. I bet it'd be fun for you too. (:

[@KaylaSale]

Damn I wish we had these in Australia!!!

[@whitleyroberts3776]

Have you tried Dozen Cousins beans?

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

I try not to eat processed snack foods, my favorite snacks are veggies, fruits, hummus dip ect

[@LoreleiMission]

We're crazy for those thin pizza crusts. I pile all Jon's faves on one side and all my faves on the other side. We use a lot of different veggies and shake on some nooch etc.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Yum!!! It's such a good find

[@TraceyBoyland]

I do not like cooked fruit either Andrew [Violently shivers] Lol!!!

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

I love sweet pickles, but i don't like spicy

[@christinajennings4078]

Andrew were you hungry in this video, lol.....for someone who doesn't enjoyed cooked fruits, you were Def policing that pie, lol

[@jomams1040]

Best buy there for me the pretzels 👍

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Nice!

[@jccn1728]

I’m heading to my Dollar Tree as soon as I’m done with work

[@katcrafter6081]

I think most movie theaters popcorn in the USA is vegan it some kind of oil and some butter flavoring just ask what there popcorn made with

[@mandydyer2426]

I say make a pizza dip and use that ultra thin crust as the chips lol. It’s that thin and crunchy

[@annmarie2964]

I never knew Tastykake's were vegan --- WOW!

[@aliviarobinson9119]

I like the spring rolls. It’s like 10 in a pack

[@MakeItDairyFree]

We heard great things about them, but our store didn't have them!

[@libralady0220]

The spring rolls are AMAZING!!! ❤👌🏾😊

[@raf952]

I prefer the Costco Vegetable Spring Rolls. Better quality and value, IMHO

[@pagirl913.]

What was the brand of popcorn?

[@pagirl913.]

And the burger?

[@katiehemstreet8939]

Omg, I saw the Loma and thought "they have vegan tuna at dollar tree?!" And then I thought I was crazy, cause it wasn't tuna. 😂 Glad I'm not crazy. And I agree, Tunno was a hard NO. Lol. I'll stick with my chickpea "tuna" salad.

[@Wwetitanfan27]

someone near me just posted that they found pints of kind ice cream (vegan) at dollar tree!

[@MakeItDairyFree]

Oh wow!

[@duckysmom9700]

Hostess…….? Brimm popcorn is definitely delicious 🤤

[@michelecuvo9565]

Butterscotch Krimpets???

[@andreahorsch286]

You forgot to say "Family" Dollar General Tree. We have versions of all 3 all over my county.

[@halimapeterson2677]

Me and my husband get those veggie patties all the time it tastes kind of like a potato cake to us we're eating for breakfast too alot

[@aminakhalida3371]

Omg they still make tastykakes I haven’t ate them in soooooo longgggggggggg like 5-6 years old 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

[@raf952]

I swing by the local Dollar Tree just to pick up a box or two of the pretzels.

[@MakeItDairyFree]

awesome!

[@kellyschaefer5735]

Andrew didn't try the pickles?

[@MakeItDairyFree]

He doesn't like pickles lol

[@misha745]

They wanted to do this video in January because it's the first month and 1 equates to $1 hense the Dollar Tree... There ya go😂

[@MakeItDairyFree]

lol more like it's when many people go vegan and then think it's so expensive so we wanted to break that stereotype

[@jomams1040]

Did you guys ever make your own"honey" out of apple juice?

[@MakeItDairyFree]

No we haven't

[@ea4602]

Look on the popcorn bag, it has a Bible verse on it..cool

[@tthomas23]

Hostee cake is what you thinking about

[@theresamnsota3925]

Zingers?

[@Grapeseedoil]

Omg Andrew doesn’t like cooked fruit either 😭🤣 I’m the same, never liked it even as a kid

[@dr.briaro]

haha, nice. I must ask. Do you Andrew play video games? :D

[@ea4602]

T y, I just bought some LOMA I'm getting ready to throw it out. Popcorn is the best.

[@monicagonzales7257]

Well it's about time...🙃

[@debbiebridges5121]

Lil Debbie’s snack cake

[@xgrebx]

I can’t do the cooked fruit.. just.. no

[@PS-mt5rp]

What are the ingredients forget about the taste

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

It should be called dollar tree plus

[@alyssawood634]

711 has a chocolate hand pie similar to that! It's ok.. haha nothing too special

[@juanmacias5922]

You guys are dorks. :D

[@Jok3rHaHaHaHa0]

Pretzels have enzymes, and most enzymes are coming from pigs. Same as most bread

[@0240172]

Andy Capps is vegan ????? 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@tamcon72]

Just those onion rings!

[@ea4602]

Zingers

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

Where is your dollar tree because your dollar tree is so much better than mine

[@MakeItDairyFree]

hahahah! We've found all these products all over South Jersey Dollar Trees

[@hicksa1]

No harm, but when I first saw him on KZbin I swear I said to my sister he choose white 🐻‍❄️

[@gwen5440]

Lol

[@DeniseNicole3]

What I hate the most about everything . Vegan or not . Is everything as “natural flavorings” in it which is not “natural” natural flavors comes from bugs . “Vanilla flavoring “ comes straight from a beavers 🦫 anus 🥺😒😩 like why must everything have artificial flavoring ??????? I’m sorry guys but you have to know it’s not hard to buy things without but it’s quite a challenge.

[@BethCatt-jq6xi]

Just in case you didn't know most movie theater popcorn is vegan, just to be safe ask

[@KariEatsPlants]

Ding Dongs

[@lynnvoogd7163]
