    I am an Australian, born and raised in Singapore and you have no idea how I agree with this video on so many levels. I love EVERYTHING mentioned in this video -
    Durian? Yes.
    Dried squid? HEEEECK YES. I used to eat a spicy dried squid snack that will have some sugar crystals on it and it was THE best snack ever.
    Or maybe spicy tapioca chips that were sticky and chewy and crunchy. UGH - I MISS SOUTHEAST ASIAN SNACKS.

      On behalf of Thai, thank you for your compliment, but please don't expect too much. We -- like every places and society -- have both good and bad things, people as well. You know, expecting too much usually leads to disappointment when things didn't turn out as good as you expected although those things might be fine in their own levels.

    Sunflower seeds that have been soaked in coconut milk then dried are VERY addictive. SO GOOD! I'm not sure if this is a thing elsewhere, but I found them for 5 baht a bag at 7/11 and couldn't stop eating them, they are such a perfect flavor combination, not too filling, and it is fun to crack open the shells!

    Thai and Indonesia have almost the same snacks. We have dried banana too, we called it "Pisang Sale" but it's dried out until almost no water in it, so it's crispy but you can find that's not too dry.

    So funny that some of the treats you chose are some of my fav's as well.
    We do a pork "floss" in the Balkans as well! It's dry and almost hair like, but once you pop it in your mouth, it melts! Like candy floss. LOL
    The bananas that we grown here in Malta are short and quite fat - but very sweet!
    The coconut roll cookies are SO like what we have in Europe - usually chocolate, almond, or vanilla flavoured. Sometimes with even a filling. But the simple tubes are the most common/popular.
    The potato chips made me laugh. Gotta love Lay's. Every year when I go back to Macedonia, I HAVE to try the new flavours they come out with also! I've tried so many - even crazy ones like lasagne and hot dog! LOL.And YES! It tastes just like it! HA!
    Those peanuts!! We also have something similar, that's coated - I think they have them in Canada too - not chicken flavour tho. LOL
    The squidy - ummm...not sure. LOL However - I would LOVE those tamarind filled banana chis! GREAT VIDEO! XOXOX
