[@RossWrock]

Hey fam, you finally opened the box! I can't describe how you made my day when I logged in and saw it...I've been waiting for months. Sorry you didn't like the Little Debbie cakes and Old Bay caramel popcorn, there were bound to be some differences in taste. But glad you liked the Takis, jerky, Zero bars, and golden berries. Of course as everyone else has mentioned, it was hysterical watching you figure out sunflower seeds. Yes they are common in the US; they can be found in every gas station and are a cheap snack, but not for everyone. Baseball really popularized them. I eat them on long road trips and when I work in the Navy, to keep me awake. The constant motion of eating keeps me alert, and even after hours of continuous eating, it's not many calories. As for the Pirate's Booty and Cape Cod chips, I think maybe they got stale over the months and lost their flavor a bit. Trust me, they both pack a punch. I noticed the bags were a bit deflated too, so there might have been an air leak. Oh well. I've moved to Florida now, and I notice you don't have a sticker on that state yet, so maybe a new inspired box will go in the works. Just one question, what happened to the Tajin and Mexican candies?!?!

Watching y'all eat sunflower seeds has me tickled pink 😆 I haven't had them from the shells in years, but it takes some practice to master lol. I find it's easier to crack them with my front teeth along the sharp edge of the seed. That way you don't tear the shell to shreds. Then you spit the shell out into a cup or something. But you can also just buy them already shelled so you can just eat them, which is a lot less work lol. Honey roasted is my favorite 😊

Sunflower seeds definitly take some practice to get use to the process. I love them. It's automatic for me to throw in a handful and shell them all in like 30secs. They call it snackativity. If I'm doing something tedious, snacking on seeds helps me focus more. Once you got the process down its easy to crack them perfectly in half so its not so messy.

Ross put together an awesome box. And yes, sunflower seeds are popular. When we are on road trips, my husband will buy a bag or David Original or BBQ and gets an empty disposable coffee cup from the gas station. He will then eat the sunflower seeds and spit them into the cup. Not the most sanitary snack, and after eating them for a while the salt will start to shred the inside of your mouth (like sour candy will), but it is a great snack that is not too filling.

[@bigernmacrackin6176]

Dip those pretzel nuggets in the nutella, it's life changing good!!

When you eat the sunflower seeds you're mostly enjoying the flavor from the seeds in your cheek. The little bit of flavor from the inner seed is just an extra bonus. You're usually doing something else while you eat the seeds, it becomes automatic: crack the shell, work out the seed, spit out the shell, and NEXT.

Sunflower seeds are very common, they are sold in every gas station or food store. They are more of an outdoor snack (because you spit out some shells) although my grandfather used to suck on them until they lost the flavor then swallow them whole.

We often had sunflower seeds in the shells available for snacks when I was a kid. When I discovered as an adult you could buy sunflower seeds already shelled, it was totally worth the extra cost because I also find spitting the shells rather disgusting!

[@natashadavis2959]

In shell sunflower seeds are for summers outside.

[@dawnsnewhope]

@@natashadavis2959 Yes, I agree completely! I just mostly work inside so I'm not outside much anymore. Good memories, though!

[@briansaucier9314]

I am Canadian, and I have loved them since I was 5(now 71). It takes a bit of practice, but you can eat them while working, etc., and the salt helps you take in more water because you get really thirsty. You guys are great! Enjoy.

Great video as usual, love the selection from the viewer. I'm from Canada, we have Little Debbie here, I love the zebra cakes one of my families fav.

[@michaelmorgan6170]

So I know this episode is a little old, but for the sunflower seeds, it's a very popular snack for the military. There is a technique, usually storing in one side of the mouth like a squirrel, using your tounge to position the shell and cracking it to get the inside of the seed. You then eat the inside and spit out the husks (outside shell). Love the videos keep them up!!

I'm so happy you were finally introduced to Old Bay! I'm from Maryland where it's from and we put that seasoning on everything ;) There's even an Old Bay sauce now. It's mainly used for crabs but it's gained popularity. Old Bay chips are the best! Sunflower seeds are great to just stick in your cheek and suck on them for the flavor. With a little practice it becomes automatic to be able to crack open the shell and get the seed out. Cheers!

I'm from Virginia and LOVE Old Bay. My favorite has always been putting it on fries. Boardwalk Fries had it as an option at Kings Dominion and I was a curious kid 🤷🏾‍♀️. Haven't stopped since.

[@antoinetterowe8097]

Yes! We will put Old Bay on just about anything!

[@newkreature03]

I had to munch on some of my Old Bay seasoned Goldfish crackers when they tried the sunflower seeds. 😁

[@camillep3631]

Yes, it's like learning to blow bubbles with gum, once you get it, it's just second nature

[@reganhorne2302]

yes the sunflower seeds are awesome....the thing that makes them so great is it keeps your mouth busy...so when your in the mood to snack but you dont really need a actual meal they work out well...also good for someone who is trying to quit smoking etc. you can eat the shell and all if you want its not gonna hurt you i do it all the time.

[@deshawnglosson6275]

😂 😂 😂 i was like no don't eat the whole shell..everyone please stay safe and blessed much love from San Antonio

[@jackpassananti3300]

love that the mexican candy was sent - i ate so much of it as a child in AZ oatmeal creme pies are one of my favorites

[@jenniferrogers5372]

My 12 year old adores Takis and my favorite is Zero bars! They're nostalgic for me because they had them in the vending machine at our local pool when I wasa kid. Always makes me travel back in time to endless carefree summer days. 😀 Loved the reactions!!

[@madmex2k]

My niece has an affinity for the Blue Takis! I mean, what flavor is blue Takis? She eats a lot of spicy stuff though.

[@jenniferrogers5372]

@@madmex2k my son loves all of them and the spicier the better! Is blue like fire or something? Must be a kid thing lol!

[@JasonLee-tz7im]

Yes sunflower seeds are very common. You can buy them at any store or gas station

[@KarleeP17]

I would love to see Atlanta make her on version of the Oatmeal cream pies!

[@antoinetterowe8097]

Agreed! The box that has the Whoopie pie recipe...make your own oatmeal cookies and use the whoopie pie cream as your filling! Happy baking!

[@ashleymolina2177]

Sunflower seeds are a good road trip snack because they keep you awake and attentive if you are on a long drive

[@yeagurlkay1535]

Your reaction to the sunflower seeds were priceless! I’m from Texas and sunflower seeds are very very popular! Also of baseball players eat sunflower seeds during their games. I’m a little on the lazy side some times and buy the shelled sunflower seeds and flavor them myself!

[@k-annaharris4580]

When they instantly started chewing the sunflower seeds shell.... I died laughing! Although some people do eat the shell, I do not. Lolol

[@andreaelliott728]

You’re right about the oatmeal cream pies! Artificial most definitely! They used to be so much better when I was little - 40-ish years ago! LOL! So many companies went cheap in their production, so sad.

[@sapphonymph8204]

That's the reason they're super cheap compared to other Little Debbie products.

[@hovis62]

I just said nearly that same thing!

[@straycat3041]

Sunflower seeds are very common here in the US

[@skatefan78]

Zero bars are my FAVORITE US candy bars -- the combination of white chocolate and different flavored nougats just really stands out against other US candy bars. Unfortunately, they aren't widely sold here in Missouri (I've only ever found them in independently run convenience stores, not wider grocery or drug store chains. :( )

[@jamesbrinn9701]

Yes sunflower seeds are Gigantic in Canada

[@scapito]

Zero bars are my favorite. They're difficult to find sometimes where I live in the US, which is a bigger city. Eating sunflower seeds are common in the US. I personally try to buy them already shelled. Sunflower butter on fresh apples is AMAZING!

[@truthbetoldineverwasyours8576]

I get them at the dollar store!!! Or five Below

[@joyb2285]

Hello there! I enjoy your videos! That’s the best tea ever!! I have it at home and in my office fridge as well. I Hope you like it!!

[@TraciKReacts]

Not sure about the rest of the US but here in the south sunflower seeds are everywhere, that and boiled peanuts. I can't even remember when I learned to eat them, I feel like I've known all my life lol. After you learn to do it, it becomes kinda mindless and you don't concentrate on cracking them, perfect snack for watching a movie. Davids original is my fave, just the right amount of salt. Great reaction as always, love from Alabama!

[@ncg5560]

So much fun watching you experience the variety of different snacks sent to you. Very brave to try things you know you're not really fond of.
