    Newfoundland and Ireland have had a relationship since at least the 1600’s. Since it’s the oldest known European settlement in the Americas we have a large influence from England, Ireland, French, and to a lesser degree Scotland, Portugal and Scandinavia.
    A lot of our folk music and culture is close to Irish culture! Thanks our irish brothers and sisters for trying this and hopefully some of you get to visit sometime

    What's known as a lingonberry in Europe is called a partridgeberry in Newfoundland.
    What's known as a cloudberry in Scandinavian countries is called a bakeapple in Newfoundland.
    And the name of our beautiful island is pronounced Newf-end-LAND. The last syllable is pronounced as you would pronounce Disneyland. Many people remember the pronunciation as rhyming with understand; thus "Understand Newfoundland"!
    The most Irish place outside of Ireland herself is a town named "Tilting" on Fogo Island, on the northeast coast of Newfoundland, where the signs are written in the Irish language and people who emigrated from Ireland centuries ago still speak the language! Slainté!

    Having been to Newfoundland a couple times, it's one of my favorite places in the world. They LOVE their wild berries up there and there is no shortage of them. Partridgeberries, Cloudberries (Bakeapple), and many more, all so very tasty. I brought some jams home and would go back for more any time. To know they're in chocolates make me want to love them more.
    And yes, they do have Irish and even Scottish accents in many places. I talked to one lovely gentleman at a roadside fish & chips/home made goods stand who sounded like he was right out of the Scottish Highlands. Couldn't understand a damn thing he said but he was just so friendly. Oh and they love their moose up there. The mooseburgers are excellent.

    Come to the rock (the island), St. John's on one end, Cornerbrook on t'uther. Some Irish films are shot there, because both the rock and the main are populated with people who sound Irish, Colm Meany and Brenden Gleason have worked there. The music of the people is reminiscent of Ireland. And a lot of pubs, if you land in St' John's, you've got the Ship, which is down by the docks and is as old world as you can get, and then there's George Street, with bars and pubs on both sides. Come during the late spring and summer, when it's warm. Cheaper than going to Disney World again.!

    8:47 you had them if you went to Ikea but referred to as lingonberries. The Bakeapple is also called cloudberries. they go for massive amounts as you cant domesticate them, they grow on marshes and bogs. In Labrador we call the Partridgeberry instead a redberry. Labrador was also the birthplace of the frozen dinner etc, as the process was learned from local Inuit by Clarence Birdseye of same brand of frozen foods, who lived there for decades.

    You should try some of the biscuits and candy from Purity some time. They're a company out of Newfoundland that makes all sorts of cookies, crackers, and candies, not to mention a falvoured syrup you dissolve in water that's an absolute staple in Newfoundland homes over the holidays.

    little insider info from a Newfoundlander, Newfoundland chocolate company imports their chocolate from a company in Quebec, they simply reform it into different types of bars and truffles, the chocolate it's self is not made in house.

    As a Newf myself I'd love to see more of our food and drinks sampled! To be honest, I only recognized the first chocolate bar and they're not exactly for locals ahaha. If you want some real Newfoundland snacks try Purity brand things like Jam-jams, Milk Lunch biscuits, ginger snaps and "Family Cookies"! Pineapple Crush is a favorite of mine. Bakeapple jam, toutons, fish and bruis, mustard pickles, salt meat, Jigg's dinner...there's loads of interesting things from Newfoundland to try!

    I've never tried Jitter Beans so I can't comment on their flavour/texture etc., but real chocolate-covered espresso beans are THE BEST! 🤩😍 By contrast, when I actually drink coffee the coffee/milk ratio needs to be about 50/50 with a fair amount of sugar lol.

    Newfoundlander here and props to Dermot for pronouncing the province's name properly, as for yes b'y it can be taken in many ways, kind of like saying yes with the fist pump, or in a sarcastic manner like yeah right, or in agreement with another's prior statement, it's very versatile, I didn't know it originated from Ireland myself but that's not surprising given the shared history of our ancestors 😀

    ahh got it the first time around "New-fend-land" is how it's most commonly pronounced, only time I've heard the "lind" pronunciation is from people out of province trying to pronounce it lol, the "oun" in the name Newf"oun"dland gets replaced with an "en" sound, to make "New-Fend-land" and the "land" pronunciation staying the same. it's more pronounced "New-fen-land" without the "d" but depending on what part of the island you're from and how thick your accent is, you may include the "d" in the pronunciation:) lots of Irish descendants here! Definitely one of the smallest culture shock experiences since we are not the same but we are alike in many ways with similar interests:)

    Thank you to Dermot for pointing out that American chocolate vomit taste. Having eaten Canadian chocolate all my life, I nearly keeled over when I bit into my first Hersey's bar. I thought I was ravin' mad until I found out that American chocolate uses 'dried milk' ingredients that taste exactly like bile to people raised on _actual_ milk chocolate.
