Addition: We wanted to clarify that we didn't mean that all we ate here is for breakfast as we are aware that this is not the case! We simply had to start filming very early in the morning on empty stomachs and had to have some things as breakfast. Thank you!
I really enjoyed watching this video. It was interesting seeing your reaction to these foods. I don't think I would enjoy them either. My husband is English and he said he would like most of these foods.
Regarding pickled eggs. I had never eaten a pickled egg until I was in my 50s and it is quite a regional foodstuff. Here in the Westcountry you will find it in Public Houses and it's eaten with a bag of Crisps. They are actually better if pickled in Malt Vinegar and not the Acetic Acid that the commercially available ones are in. Better from a Farmers market than a supermarket. I haven't had one for over 20 years and I won't lose any sleep if I don't have one for another 20. Actually that is the standpoint of most people today apart from in the Westcountry, parts of the Midlands and parts of Northumberland. Regarding Jam RolyPoly and Kirsten, I do love the way you pronounce that 😉😬 You are right, homemade is best and that looked rather dry. We would serve that with Custard and it is really a school dinners or Nursery type of desert. Once again, not a favourite of mine as I don't really have a sweet tooth. I'd rather have a Bratwurst from a Schnelli or a Rindwurst and Potato Salad. I am very fond of German food and have always enjoyed to visit the Rhineland for a holiday. Maybe next time try Jellied Eels ? 🙄
Im pretty addicted to butter too. I buy either mooville(local high fat humainly produced butter its heavenly) or amish or aldis irish butter. I use cheap store butter for baking and cooking tho

Brit here - I am really enjoying this tasting video, it’s so funny! Joerg has a cast iron stomach for most things, but was defeated by the pickled eggs and onions…🤭. I wonder what they would think of pickled gherkins and crisp sandwich… I think you both had a good laugh over this, nice to see your playful sides.
Jam roly poly needs custard. Remember eating is all about balance, to be fair you need to eat these foods in the right way. Would you eat a curry without rice ,or a bolognaise without pasta?
Yes exactly. I am Welsh and the the laverbread is traditionally served with a Welsh cooked breakfast and can be bought fresh locally, such as Welsh markets.
😂 I'm English and I've never eaten a pickled egg in my life and not going to now 😅 oven chips are awful you need proper chips and rolypoly needs custard 😋 xx
In my 'English time' I liked pickles, but I never had pickled eggs. Moreover, I never had tea with milk, when I only saw the colour of it, my stomac was on strike. And Marmite wasn' t my cup of tea either - never tasted it, although I have a mini pack from a hotel in my fridge . . . Have no good feelings when I see it. You two have been so brave 😂
I have had such a good giggle - Kirsten’s face! Adorable…. And when she said “I think it needs more chips “. Hubby and I couldn’t stop laughing…. Thank you so much, both of you, for making our day 🤣🤣🤣💖💖💖
Just loved the opening couple of taste comments & the expression(s) that our dear Kirsten employs as she reviews the foods with Jorge! Goodness, I love the two of them!
…When K. brings out the strawberry cake & jam - J. “head wiggle” just cracked me up. Oh goodness. The comedy of this video said with such dead pan seriousness! Bravo!
Hi guys. I laughed through this entire video! Of course Joerg loved everything! He loves food. Thank you for the good laugh. Kirsten your faces were priceless!❤️❤️
My Sympathy was with Kirsten through out the whole experiment! i can’t begin to imagine that anything called “Marmite”, paste made with yeast could be edible. The seaweed spread,, if it was similar in taste to dried seaweed (Nori) might be OK. However it was educational. I learned that the food item called a “Butty” was a Bun, like a dinner roll, large and soft. I hope i got that right The Tv coverage of the Royal Wedding mentioned that . Prince William ordered a large quantity of “Bacon Butty’s” for his Bachelor party. Those must have been wonderful.. i bet Jorge would enjoy a bacon butty. the whole episode was so much fun to watch. Thank you both for being such good sports. from 🇺🇸.💕
@@prarieborn6458A Butty is just another name for a sandwich., so it can be a bread roll or just two slices of bread. The term originated in the north of England but is used all around the country now.
I am German but my English husband fully agrees that pickled onions and eggs should be avoided at all costs. This video was utterly hilarious to watch. Loved it. 😂
@@dulciemidwinter1925 I live in Canada and 20 yrs ago I had a Scottish friend who would make a big platter of scotch eggs whenever he was invited to a party, I miss it so much and I'm sure it's not that hard to make.
@nicolad8822 We have the silver-skin onion pickles in Germany too which I love but it’s a white vinegar. The same is available in the UK but we wanted to try other ones available in the UK and they are far stronger.
What a delightful vid. Most of those products I am familiar with since my roots is English/Welsh/Irish. I love my HP sauce on scrambled eggs & I'm very grateful I can still get it here in Canada. I had laughed so hard with your response to pickled eggs & onions. I was told it's an acquired taste but that was 60 some yrs ago. lol. Not trying them again. Dear Kirsten & Joerg, you are such lovely ppl. Thank you so much for sharing part of your life with us all. Blessing be yours.
My roots are English/Welsh (Father) and German/Russian Mennonite (Mother). HP sauce was always on our table. We ate more of the English foods that were well known in the midlands before the earlyv1950's when Dad emigrated to Canada than German fare as he could not handle spices, except he loved the schnitzel, perogi's with sausage, and cabbage rolls made with barley instead of rice. He often spoke of eating treacle on toast or fried herring with breakfast. His sister came over and made "chips by taking sliced boiled potatoes, dipping them in beer batter and deep-frying them. Mom was horrified and fascinated at the same time. She told dad to eat up and enjoy because he was never getting that again. Dad's mother gave mom her own grandmother's recipe for yorkshire pudding which I learned to make at 11 years old. I taught my 2 children the same recipe. It's a family favorite. I just realized that that recipe has been made by my family for 6 generations.
😂😂😂 Joerg Seems to love everything. He's easy to feed. The words of the day are, it's disgusting; it's absolutely disgusting!! 😂 Kirsten, you have had it for the day!!😅
Maybe because at a young age he lived in Australia so was exposed to some of these foods as I remember he had mentioned before he liked Vegemite. I tried it once and totally agree with Kirsten...
Hello! We have so many comments coming in (thanks so much!!) that people in the UK don't have Branston pickle for breakfast and we know that. Sorry for the misunderstanding as we should have been clearer. We had to have it for breakfast because we started filming in the morning on an empty stomach which is the only reason I was struggling.
@@KirstenJoerg yes thought you were doing it all at once for the video experience but branston pickle is a very strong Smelling brand too. Can understand extra reluctance there Kirsten :)!
The Branston pickle, and pickled onions, go well with a simple salad consisting of a cheese selection, iceberg lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes and maybe some sliced ham - this used to be called a ploughmans lunch and you could get it all over the West country and probably most holiday resorts. Nowadays a ploughmans lunch is nothing as simple as that, so many tea shops and little restaurants try to outdo one another.
I agree, real butter that melts with the beans, sometimes the simplest meals are the tastiest. But I've never seen anyone eat beans on toast with their hands 😂
This was hilarious ! You were really taking one for the team !!!! As a born & bred Brit I totally agree with your opinion on pickled eggs & onions & marmite. Beans on toast is definitely comfort food. Btw, you can't really make a decent chip butty with oven chips(too dry) as they need to be good & greasy ; ) & branston pickle shouldn't be heated. It's a cold condiment that you can add to a welsh rarebit after it's grilled or to put in a ham or cheese sandwich . Well done anywayfor trying this all out. I'm looking forward to you making steak & kidney pudding with treacle pudding & custard for dessert for a real carbfest although I too prefer strawberry tarte 😂😂😂
Wait. Is the Rolly Polly just a cinnamon roll? Those made by a good bakery are great. Store bought aren’t that good. Never put any sauce or jam on them.
@@robynemme2458 In fact it's called jam roly-poly & is suet pudding, a pastry made with flour, water & suet, (the fat found around kidneys). The suet pastry is flattened jam is spread in the middle & the pastry is rolled. The pudding is then steamed. It sounds pretty disgusting but homemade suet puddings are light & fluffy & with a tangy not to sweet jam this dessert is delish. However, you can't buy this in bakers as it doesn't keep well. ; )
No shouldn’t have any cinnamon in it. It’s just made with strawberry jam and suet pudding and is a northern dish traditionally enjoyed in freezing cold weather
@@robynemme2458Don't know what a cinnamon roll is but my goodness rolypoly pudding definitely needs custard. Don't know if you'd count that as a sauce though😂😂😂
You two were so funny and so honest, that I would watch you again and again just to catch your expressions. Oh, and maybe, get an idea for my breakfast.😃 Thank you for being so realistic.😊
@@katevalentine7075 You may be right. Those type of foods were made to last longer and not spoil very soon. Never mind the awkward taste. If I had to choose one that I could eat regularly, I would choose beans on toast.
I love baked beans on toast, this is really interesting, because i used to eat baked beans on toast when i was a kid, on saturday we would have a barbeque, and if we had any left over baked bean, on Sunday Morning i would Finnish off the baked beans by putting them on buttered toast and i would scramble up eggs to eat with it. yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was so many years ago, thank you for bringing back a lovely memory. 💕💕
Swiss here. I was introduced to pickled eggs in a pub in the UK many years ago. I loved them at first bite and made them myself the following Christmas as a side-dish at my party. A friend - a cooking teacher, no less - loved them so much she has been making them ever since for Christmas. No Christmas at their home without pickled eggs. And I too still make them once or twice a year. They are really delicious. Don't be shy and try them.
I have never thought how an egg could look so innocent! Hahaha. Joerg should have a "mukbang" channel from today! Hahaha. Kirsten heartily laughing with a wheezing sound is so funny. Thank you for another wonderful video. Love you, guys! :)
Oh hahah, es hat Spaß gemacht das Video zu machen. Wir haben es mit Humor genommen. Leider gibt es einige, die besonders meine Reaktionen anstößig finden aber wir wollten das nicht scripten und es gibt auf vieles in DE, das ich nicht mag.
Es hat mich köstlich erheitert, euren morgendlichen Experimenten zu folgen 😂 kam genau als ich es dringend brauchte 😉 Ihr zwei seid einfach großartig ❤ Bitte hört nie auf, Videos zu machen 🙏😁🖐
Thank-you for the laughter. I was with the two of you all the way, and my stomach was absolutely turning over when you made the chips on the bun. Koodos to both of you for getting through trying it all!
PS. A small amount of Marmite drizzled over Cheddar on toast, then grilled, is great - if you like Marmite. Or you can alternatively try Branston pickle with grilled cheese on toast (again, not too much!) E.g. under the grilled cheese (spread on your toast), or as a condiment on the side.
This was entertaining! I LOVE beans on toast, cheese and pickle sandwich’s and marmite on toast, but more as evening or lunch snacks/ meals. My grandmother was Austrian and I grew up with Germanic food too!
OMG! I am roaring with laughter 😂 I was raised in England, now in Australia but I ❤ all the things you tried but not marmite, we have Vegemite! Your face, Kirsten, it was worth watching for your reactions 😂 I guess it’s where you are raised 🤷🏻♀️
We're impressed that you did this! Your reactions were the best to watch. And at times we were cringing over the sounds of the food or the sight of so much butter! Thankfully you ending with your delicious looking homemade strawberry cake and great attitudes was wonderful! Thanks again for another enjoyable time. Keep trying more British foods!❤
❤You two are so creative. Coming up with a unique and thoroughly enjoyable video every single week is no easy feat but you succeed regardless and this week is no exception. Baked beans are considered a must have for picnics and barbeques in the U.S. along with potato salad, but I never thought of having them with toast however I have made baked bean sandwiches. Definitely not a breakfast food though, LOL! Thank you for sharing so much with us. ❤
@Dao. Hi. Same for Canadian BBQs/Picnics/Potlucks. Homemade baked beans & potato salad a must have tradition. Amazingly if 3 women brought baked beans they all can taste different...YUM is how I describe all recipes. Cheers.
@@zoidmo3388 Hello neighbor to the North. That is so true about different recipes having different flavors. Good recipes are coveted by those who find or develop them for that very reason.. The same goes for potato salad. It's all good which is why it's always popular at summer gatherings :)
i love these food tasting videos, it's somewhat off brand but it shows relaxed interaction between you two which is less tailored than what we usually see,.and delightful!
Cute video! I'm from the US southeast with both British and German roots.. I grew up with pickled eggs at family Easter celebrations. Ours were pink, as beets or beet juice was added to the recipe, which I read is apparently common for pickled eggs in the US. However, I don't know anyone else that eats them, so who knows. My mom said they came from my grandmother's German family tradition. I also read their origin had to do with Lent, as many Christian denominations forbade the consumption of eggs during Lent, but hens continued to lay eggs, and pickling provided a practical way to preserve them until Easter. Our family also had pickled peaches. A very different thing with spices like clove and cinnamon. I didn't love or hate the eggs - ours weren't super strong tasting, but I did like the peaches! Thanks for the memory! We no longer eat them at family gatherings..
I was born and bred in UK,but never tried pickled egg or onions and after your reactions I think I will definitely give them a miss😂 As for jam roly-poly must be home made and served with hot custard, even then it’s an acquired taste 😂 My tummy hurts I laughed so much at your faces eating the egg Kirsten 😂😂😂😂 love you two
That was hilarious! The rolypoly pudding definitely needs custard (not had it in years but my mother’s was delicious), and chip butties need sliced white bread and fish shop chips…..and probably a beer induced hunger😅. I’m with you all the way with the pickled eggs……and I’m amazed you had never done beans on toast as a quick and filling meal, a standby for the occasions when you’ve been caught in traffic, got soaked on the way home and all other similar disasters!
I love your calm beautiful videos. They're so relaxing. But this was really fun and laughter is like medicine! My husband wasn't watching but he was chuckling at all the exclamations of disgust.😅
Such an enjoyable video, thank you, Kirsten and Joerg! For me as a viewer the absolute highlight was that innocent-looking pickled egg🤣 I hope though your stomachs weren't too upset after such a wild breakfast combo😁
Marmite needs to be very thinly applied, nice on toast with beans or melted cheese. Branston pickle nice in a cheese sandwich, or with a ploughman's lunch.
I loved watching this. It was so funny especially when you both tried the pickled egg. It definitely looks innocent but horrible to eat. You both are so adorable. I love watching your vlogs. Best wishes.
Yes you really need to fry the laverbread with bacon and can add some rolled oats as you cook it. I cannot imagine eating it with cheese and tomato on toast that's the vegan version 21st century version. As a kid we would be it fresh from the market in Swansea that's like almost 45 years ago. I'm sure it's really healthy. How can a chip buttie be considered weird? Haha you guys are cute though enjoyed this. All the best from Thailand. The only thing I never dared to eat is pickled egg all the others are real UK staples. Surely pickled onion is similar to sauerkraut lol
👋 👋👋K and J Oh my… you are BOTH great and how cute and FUN was this video! It’s so interesting to see how people’s pallets are so different and unique. I have always been a pickley and briney/salty kinda gal myself. It can make someone’s eyes water just watching them eat that kind of stuff. On the other hand…. My late mom LOVED all things sweet. I think I love it all… MOST of the time. Joerg had a Ham and mustard sandwich some time back… and I LOVE that instead of Mayo. Anyhooo, All in good food fun and THX for your videos , as always. ☮️☮️☮️☮️❤️❤️❤️
My nieces husband is German 🇩🇪 they lived in London where he tried English food he loves it all 😂 they are back in Germany now but he misses uk food 🏴
My Husbands family are Welsh and he loves laverbread. Traditionally it's served with fried bacon and cockles. Personally I hate it, but then I don't like anything from the sea. This was so funny watching your face Kristen, trying some of those foods. You're quite brave really I think 😂♥️
Hi Kirsten and Joerg great video 😀😀. You really need chip shop chips for a chip butty. Also pickled onions are best eaten with something else such as with hams and cheese as part of a ploughman’s lunch. The jam roly poly would traditionally be eaten with custard too xx
You really made my day with this British food experiment 🎉 I was laughing all the time watching you brave ones 😂 so funny and enjoyable how good you are together. Thank you very much for your fantastic videos ❤
British people peel a potato and deep fry their own chips never on a bun just bread and you put far too much butter. In the old days pickled eggs were sweet no taste like battery acid. Agree with you there.
Addition: We wanted to clarify that we didn't mean that all we ate here is for breakfast as we are aware that this is not the case! We simply had to start filming very early in the morning on empty stomachs and had to have some things as breakfast. Thank you!

I know right. That cracked me up so much. Her face was like I know you are not eating that with your hands. What is happening here. Lol.
It made me laugh as well.

@@Smartychasesame here. It was like a testimony to her cooking.
Falling off my chair laughing! Cutest couple ever!!!
The butter goes to the edges! The toast is only half dressed 😅
Exactly……
Yes!!!
spreads in tubs are not pure butter, they add oils to make it spreadable, butter is much nicer and tastier and healthier 🙂
Im pretty addicted to butter too. I buy either mooville(local high fat humainly produced butter its heavenly) or amish or aldis irish butter.
I use cheap store butter for baking and cooking tho
Yes. Otherwise it’s just dry old toast. Yuk

The suet pastry is flattened jam is spread in the middle & the pastry is rolled. The pudding is then steamed. It sounds pretty disgusting but homemade suet puddings are light & fluffy & with a tangy not to sweet jam this dessert is delish. However, you can't buy this in bakers as it doesn't keep well. ; )
No shouldn’t have any cinnamon in it. It’s just made with strawberry jam and suet pudding and is a northern dish traditionally enjoyed in freezing cold weather
@@robynemme2458Don't know what a cinnamon roll is but my goodness rolypoly pudding definitely needs custard. Don't know if you'd count that as a sauce though😂😂😂
You can have baked beans on toast at anytime.. breakfast, lunch or dinner!
I always make two fried eggs on the side.
🤢
I read somewhere that it is one of the most nutritionally balanced meals and good for weight loss.
@@madamg612true
I like my beans on crumpets, yum!!!
Toast with beans on, then grated strong cheddar on top, put under the grill until cheese bubbles and serve with a dash of HP, absolute fave.
Joerg's reaction to the pickled eggs is epic.....i thought he was gonna faint!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
I almost hit the floor laughing when you two tried the egg! I think you should do more shows like this! 😂😂😂😊
🙏🙏🙏
Use chip shop chips next time you have a chip butty oven chips are too dry. I don’t like oven chips.
Brown sauce is nice on a bacon sandwich
You two were so funny and so honest, that I would watch you again and again just to catch your expressions. Oh, and maybe, get an idea for my breakfast.😃 Thank you for being so realistic.😊
Hahah we had so much fun making the video.
@@KirstenJoerg And to my delight, it shows. 😊
Kirston giving Joreg the " Alice Kramden" look 😂
It seems like foods that were used during the ration period? Right ?
@@katevalentine7075 You may be right. Those type of foods were made to last longer and not spoil very soon. Never mind the awkward taste. If I had to choose one that I could eat regularly, I would choose beans on toast.
I love baked beans on toast, this is really interesting, because i used to eat baked beans on toast when i was a kid, on saturday we would have a barbeque, and if we had any left over baked bean, on Sunday Morning i would Finnish off the baked beans by putting them on buttered toast and i would scramble up eggs to eat with it. yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was so many years ago, thank you for bringing back a lovely memory. 💕💕
Eeeew
Just found your channel and really enjoyed watching as I made a rather homely cottage pie.
I've subscribed and look forward to watching lots more!
You are so kind, thank you so much! Your cottage pie sounds incredible, enjoy!
Swiss here. I was introduced to pickled eggs in a pub in the UK many years ago. I loved them at first bite and made them myself the following Christmas as a side-dish at my party. A friend - a cooking teacher, no less - loved them so much she has been making them ever since for Christmas. No Christmas at their home without pickled eggs. And I too still make them once or twice a year. They are really delicious. Don't be shy and try them.
Thank you for making me laugh! You're to be commended for your bravery.
Now that was a brilliant food tour! I did laugh at your reactions, but I will say that you were very brave. Loved it.
I LOVE Kirsten’s reactions!!!!
I have never thought how an egg could look so innocent! Hahaha. Joerg should have a "mukbang" channel from today! Hahaha. Kirsten heartily laughing with a wheezing sound is so funny. Thank you for another wonderful video. Love you, guys! :)
I am not native English person but I love this food!
Super Unterhaltung. Deine Reaktionen Kirsten 😂🤣. Danke für die Lacher 👍
Oh hahah, es hat Spaß gemacht das Video zu machen. Wir haben es mit Humor genommen. Leider gibt es einige, die besonders meine Reaktionen anstößig finden aber wir wollten das nicht scripten und es gibt auf vieles in DE, das ich nicht mag.
Es hat mich köstlich erheitert, euren morgendlichen Experimenten zu folgen 😂 kam genau als ich es dringend brauchte 😉
Ihr zwei seid einfach großartig ❤
Bitte hört nie auf, Videos zu machen 🙏😁🖐
Very creative idea! Joerg has an iron stomach! You made me laugh out loud. A simple idea that was very entertaining ❤
I don’t think I lol 😂 so much at 1 of your videos ever ! This was fun and hilarious 😆. Thank you for making my day ❤
American here and love Branston! Also love baked beans, HP/brown sauce
Thank-you for the laughter. I was with the two of you all the way, and my stomach was absolutely turning over when you made the chips on the bun. Koodos to both of you for getting through trying it all!
Stick with a “Bacon Butty Sandwich.” Cheers.🤣🇬🇧👍
I lived with an Englishman in another life and we would have beans on toast for a quick dinner. I enjoyed this video.
That's great to hear! Thanks so much Anna!
If Agatha Christie wrote about this experience, she would call the book "Death by Carbs."😆
OMG hilarious!🤣
Charles Dickens' great eggspectations!
🤣🤣🤣
Good one! Death by Carbs but the Egg did it :D
OMG! I’m crying laughing 😂. Funniest video yet.
I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a tasting video!!! You're both brilliant. Thank you for making my day!
PS. A small amount of Marmite drizzled over Cheddar on toast, then grilled, is great - if you like Marmite. Or you can alternatively try Branston pickle with grilled cheese on toast (again, not too much!) E.g. under the grilled cheese (spread on your toast), or as a condiment on the side.
This was entertaining! I LOVE beans on toast, cheese and pickle sandwich’s and marmite on toast, but more as evening or lunch snacks/ meals. My grandmother was Austrian and I grew up with Germanic food too!
To be fair, we usually eat chip butties with chips from a chip shop, not oven chips 😮
Of course though I wouldn't like it no matter what. To me it's just weird lol.
@@KirstenJoerg you need to concentrate on the chip not the butty
🤢
they should try chips and gravy or chips with curry sauce, but only from a chip shop
@@millywood6801 Chips and gravy aren't new to us. We have been eating this for years.
Usually we eat rollypolly pudding with lots of custard to knock back the sweetness of the pudding such a fun video
OMG! I am roaring with laughter 😂 I was raised in England, now in Australia but I ❤ all the things you tried but not marmite, we have Vegemite! Your face, Kirsten, it was worth watching for your reactions 😂 I guess it’s where you are raised 🤷🏻♀️
🤣🤣🤣
Only chips I like are home made with sauce and salt
I’m crying .!!!!! 🙌🏽🥰😍❤️❤️love you guys!!!! 😂😂😂
Kirsten you joerg could have your own tv show,so enjoyable to watch well done loved it.....
Wow, thank you!
@@KirstenJoergshe definitely could! She's a star and Joerg the perfect contrast.
We're impressed that you did this! Your reactions were the best to watch. And at times we were cringing over the sounds of the food or the sight of so much butter! Thankfully you ending with your delicious looking homemade strawberry cake and great attitudes was wonderful! Thanks again for another enjoyable time. Keep trying more British foods!❤
❤You two are so creative. Coming up with a unique and thoroughly enjoyable video every single week is no easy feat but you succeed regardless and this week is no exception. Baked beans are considered a must have for picnics and barbeques in the U.S. along with potato salad, but I never thought of having them with toast however I have made baked bean sandwiches. Definitely not a breakfast food though, LOL! Thank you for sharing so much with us. ❤
That's very kind, thank you so much!
@Dao. Hi. Same for Canadian BBQs/Picnics/Potlucks. Homemade baked beans & potato salad a must have tradition. Amazingly if 3 women brought baked beans they all can taste different...YUM is how I describe all recipes. Cheers.
@@zoidmo3388 Hello neighbor to the North. That is so true about different recipes having different flavors. Good recipes are coveted by those who find or develop them for that very reason.. The same goes for potato salad. It's all good which is why it's always popular at summer gatherings :)
@@dao8805 ❤you're right, true for potato salad too. Now I'm craving for it lol
i love these food tasting videos, it's somewhat off brand but it shows relaxed interaction between you two which is less tailored than what we usually see,.and delightful!
Cute video! I'm from the US southeast with both British and German roots.. I grew up with pickled eggs at family Easter celebrations. Ours were pink, as beets or beet juice was added to the recipe, which I read is apparently common for pickled eggs in the US. However, I don't know anyone else that eats them, so who knows. My mom said they came from my grandmother's German family tradition. I also read their origin had to do with Lent, as many Christian denominations forbade the consumption of eggs during Lent, but hens continued to lay eggs, and pickling provided a practical way to preserve them until Easter. Our family also had pickled peaches. A very different thing with spices like clove and cinnamon. I didn't love or hate the eggs - ours weren't super strong tasting, but I did like the peaches! Thanks for the memory! We no longer eat them at family gatherings..
This was movie material…..so hilarious…..loved it😊
I was born and bred in UK,but never tried pickled egg or onions and after your reactions I think I will definitely give them a miss😂 As for jam roly-poly must be home made and served with hot custard, even then it’s an acquired taste 😂
My tummy hurts I laughed so much at your faces eating the egg Kirsten 😂😂😂😂 love you two
I'm British and I've never tried pickled eggs and I think I made a good choice 😂😂
👍👍👍
@@lydiarosebrita4901 same I'm 68 and never had one, never even seen them.
Pickled eggs are usually sitting on the bar in old taverns in America.
Me either!
That was hilarious! The rolypoly pudding definitely needs custard (not had it in years but my mother’s was delicious), and chip butties need sliced white bread and fish shop chips…..and probably a beer induced hunger😅. I’m with you all the way with the pickled eggs……and I’m amazed you had never done beans on toast as a quick and filling meal, a standby for the occasions when you’ve been caught in traffic, got soaked on the way home and all other similar disasters!
Oh that black and white dish pattern is gorgeous!!
So happy you like it! It's Burleigh Pottery from Stoke-on-Trent.
@@KirstenJoerg thank you for sharing the name 🖤🤍🖤
Chips are mainly made in a sandwich, Pickled onions usually eaten with a ploughman's lunch. Roly poly goes with custard
Hilarious video. I laught so hard. Tears in my eyes😂😂😂 thank you
I love your calm beautiful videos. They're so relaxing. But this was really fun and laughter is like medicine! My husband wasn't watching but he was chuckling at all the exclamations of disgust.😅
🤣🤣🤣
Hi Kirsten and Joerg ! . Lovely couple ! and this video was so funny ! . Thank you so much !!!
The 2 of you are very brave to try these foods! I laughed outloud several times😅.❤
Such an enjoyable video, thank you, Kirsten and Joerg! For me as a viewer the absolute highlight was that innocent-looking pickled egg🤣 I hope though your stomachs weren't too upset after such a wild breakfast combo😁
Marmite needs to be very thinly applied, nice on toast with beans or melted cheese. Branston pickle nice in a cheese sandwich, or with a ploughman's lunch.
Definitely prefer it on cheese but not plain on butter even if it's super thinly applied :)
I was waiting for Kirsten to ask Joerg, "who ARE you?" This made me laugh out loud!
🤣🤣🤣
@@lisad8388 AS I said...the Alice Kramden look to Ralph from the Honeymooners
I was actually thinking about the food and if I liked it.
Oh!!! I spoke too soon! The German Strawberry Cake looks AMAZING!!! 🤩 And I agree - homemade is always my preference. 🥰
I loved watching this. It was so funny especially when you both tried the pickled egg. It definitely looks innocent but horrible to eat. You both are so adorable. I love watching your vlogs. Best wishes.
Thanks so much!
I am so glad Joerg likes some of these things so they don’t go to waste. I am sure I would react more like Kirsten. Fun video. 🤗😆
Joerg actually surprised me with his "easy to please" palate! Kristen's face said everything ......no words required! Lol
When I was a little girl, my aunty used to fry fresh laver in a pan, sprinkled with vinegar and served with bacon... delicious!
Yes you really need to fry the laverbread with bacon and can add some rolled oats as you cook it. I cannot imagine eating it with cheese and tomato on toast that's the vegan version 21st century version. As a kid we would be it fresh from the market in Swansea that's like almost 45 years ago. I'm sure it's really healthy. How can a chip buttie be considered weird? Haha you guys are cute though enjoyed this. All the best from Thailand. The only thing I never dared to eat is pickled egg all the others are real UK staples. Surely pickled onion is similar to sauerkraut lol
👋 👋👋K and J
Oh my… you are BOTH great and how cute and FUN was this video! It’s so interesting to see how people’s pallets are so different and unique. I have always been a pickley and briney/salty kinda gal myself. It can make someone’s eyes water just watching them eat that kind of stuff.
On the other hand…. My late mom LOVED all things sweet. I think I love it all… MOST of the time. Joerg had a Ham and mustard sandwich some time back… and I LOVE that instead of Mayo. Anyhooo,
All in good food fun and THX for your videos , as always.
☮️☮️☮️☮️❤️❤️❤️
This was sooooooo funny! My husband was wondering why I was laughing!
My nieces husband is German 🇩🇪 they lived in London where he tried English food he loves it all 😂 they are back in Germany now but he misses uk food 🏴
There’s so much great food in the UK! We always go to amazing pubs. This video was very niche.
@@KirstenJoerg I have been to Germany I liked the German food especially the sausages x
You two brave souls! You ate this food so we didn’t have to! Thanks for that! But, I agree, carbs on carbs. Just too much.
A fun video! Thank you for brightening up my day! 💖
My Husbands family are Welsh and he loves laverbread. Traditionally it's served with fried bacon and cockles. Personally I hate it, but then I don't like anything from the sea. This was so funny watching your face Kristen, trying some of those foods. You're quite brave really I think 😂♥️
I find totally incredible that Americans find a simple quick and easy meal a big issue same language but different cultures
Hi Kirsten and Joerg great video 😀😀. You really need chip shop chips for a chip butty. Also pickled onions are best eaten with something else such as with hams and cheese as part of a ploughman’s lunch. The jam roly poly would traditionally be eaten with custard too xx
Hello! Yes of course though I will never like a chip butty. I find the combination simply weird and it's not for me lol.
Bird's custard.
Vielen Dank für das tolle Video! Eine herrliche Unterhaltung…
Sehr sehr gerne, wir hatten viel Spaß!
Too funny! The egg and onion.. Kirsten brings a paper napkin out quickly for the onion. So hilarious! I love your videos!!
Oh my, the pickled egg and onion is not for the faint hearted.
My wife and I had good laugh at your antics. Thoroughly enjoyed that review of different foods!
You really made my day with this British food experiment 🎉 I was laughing all the time watching you brave ones 😂 so funny and enjoyable how good you are together. Thank you very much for your fantastic videos ❤
British people peel a potato and deep fry their own chips never on a bun just bread and you put far too much butter. In the old days pickled eggs were sweet no taste like battery acid. Agree with you there.
Dawno się tak nie śmiałam😀 jesteście oboje wspaniali, dobrze, że deser nie zawiódł. Pozdrowienia❤❤
Ces recettes sont étonnantes 🤔 et m'amusent, merci à vous deux, chère Kirsten 🌹 et cher Joerg ! Prenez soin de vous et à bientôt 🥂 ! 💜
So funny! Joerg really enjoys this! And your dishes are gorgeous! ❤
The ASMR in your videos is unreal. Love it
One of your most entertaining videos. It was so good to laugh with you in such troubled times. My husband and I watch from Florida.
Oh thank you!
