You asked before about how these things are sold. Basically most of the savoury things would be in the crisps sections. The difference is simple. Crisps are thin cut chips a thick cut. That's why sometimes they will be sold using different names.
Oh my goodness!! The excitement when I saw this video, I was like "Ohhh Yaaaaay, they got the boxes and they weren't damaged, and blimey, I honestly cannot believe how quickly they got to you and that you got them together - Wow I'm amazed! Awwwww you guysss, you're just so, so sweet - I'm so happy you liked it all. I was having a field day in the supermarket going around thinking what to send, so hard to choose but a lot fun :D I would have loved to send more but the postage gets super expensive over certain weights. I thought the Marmite (Yeast Extract - a by-product of beer brewing - it's kind of like vegemite, but I like Marmite better) might be risky as it is a love it hate it thing, but in the crisps it's not as super, super strong as having it straight out of a jar (with butter on toast or crumpets). I was really surprised you both loved that flavour (Our family does too, we are Marmite lovers hehe) :D The mini cheddars were Red Leicester (said 'Lester') Cheese flavour, which is an orange coloured cheese with a slightly different taste to standard cheddar. I should have include some of the original mini cheddars for you to compare, but those Red Leicester ones I absolutely love! (I actually love putting them in a sandwich with butter and grated cheese lol!) I was a bit concerned the Thai McCoys may be a bit spicy for you Laura, they certainly do have a kick, especially after you eat quite a few but I do love the flavour of those. The Nik Naks Nice n Spicy is quite deceptive isn't it, not that spicy at all really in comparison. The party rings and wafers are definitely nostalgic for me as they would always be on the table at kids parties. Jammy Dodgers would be too, but those Fox's version are like a step up with the cream in :P I did want to send you a box of Tunnock's tea cakes which are similar to the snowballs but without the coconut. They are very classic, old-fashioned looking and each wrapped in foil, but they had sold out on the day I was at the shop, so I'm glad you both like coconut (I love it!). Funny lil thing I have heard about the Toffee Crisp - Apparently they are not allowed to be sold in the US because the packaging is too similar to the Reese's branding! Ohh yes, the Polo mints are definitely something you'd find in mum's/nan's handbag, or in the car hehe! Ahh I did think Jon would like the little Hippo because it's like a wafer-y biscuit :D They do Kinder Bueno which are like two fingers of the same thing, but the Hippo is cuter ^_^ The mint matchmakers are one of my faves, they are so addictive and moreish. They tend to come out at Christmas in the UK, the Mint ones and Orange ones are the usual flavours but each year they tend to bring out 1 or 2 different/limited editions ones, they've done Gingerbread, Maple and pecan, honeycomb. I will have to try and remember to send you some different flavours next Christmas! Molly is literally like my fur-child and best friend, I take her everywhere I can with me and she also is my model for the pet bow ties I make and sell on Etsy :D Love her to bits and so I always sign things from both of us, even on Christmas/birthday cards to family haha!! I want to thank you both so much for making such an epic video, I absolutely loved every minute watching it and you should have seen my face at some parts where I was unsure whether you'd like something, I had my hands up on my face in anticipation, like 'ooooooo what are they gonna think!?!' And I'm really looking forward to seeing how you get on with the custard (I love it on a hot homemade apple crumble! Nom nom) and trying out the orange hot chocolate in a future vid. Enjoy! Xxx
I have to say how blown away we were! We loved all of the treats but beyond that, the care you took to send these. The fact that you chose things based on our preferences, my allergy (oh gosh, did you think I was going to eat the nougat) I was close lol! The fact that you wrapped up things that might contaminate the other flavors, including the wrappers...It was all so thoughtful! We loved the cards and pictures too. This is only our second package from a viewer and the other one was a surprise box from Canada but that was also family. So, you will always be our first box from the UK and our first subscriber box. I was hesitant about the marmite but pleasantly surprised! That hippo was the cutest little thing ever! I could go on and on. I love that you say that about Molly. We have been without a dog for about 3 years now and we are beyond ready to get another! We have a little kitty that makes an appearance here and there. His name is Rookie and we love him to pieces. But, we both really want a dog again. We are in the midst of a home remodel/redecoration so I think when that is complete, we will begin that process. Could you let me know your Etsy link and I will link it for you and mention it in the next video with the custard? Thank you again, from the bottoms of our hearts!
Aww you are more than welcome, it was just so much fun and so exciting! :D Oh my goodness, I'm SO glad Jon checked the nougat before you ate it - I knew the hippo had nuts but scanning over everything else I thought was ok, I had completely forgotten about the nougat having peanuts in it! Yikes - sorry about that! Ohh that will be so lovely if you get a new pupper in your lives. I love cats too, we used to have 3 at one point before we got the dogs. We lost our elderly Ridgeback last year unfortunately, she is greatly missed by us all. I hope your home remodel is going well, it's sometimes a lot of work but worth it all in the end! :D Bless you, that's so sweet! You totally don't have to, but if you want to, my shop is Mollydollydoodah (www.mollydollydoodah.etsy.com). (Wonder if you can tell who it;s named after hahaha! Lots of love from across the pond xx
@@Bexyboo88 a fantastic job with the selection. Party rings hold a special place for me. One of my earliest memories is eating them at a freinds party 😅😁
Custard is best other things. Could have it with fresh sliced bananas, good with things like apple pie or any warm desert. In England we often have it with sponge puddings and a fruit crumble.
Hi there, marmite is yeast extract. So similar to vegemite.the squashie on a stick was probably a drumstick.where I live in Hull in Yorkshire every first week in October we get the largest travelling fair come to town , this is where we get the most nougat, but in recent years is now sold in shops.Parma violets were a fab of mine, now I drink the flavour in gin lol.wafers and party rings I still love today, we usually have them at kids birthday parties.
The best nougat in Europe is in a town called Montelimar in France,, if you were driving from Dover to the Med,, you used to pass through this town & the nougat was everywhere,, of course now they've built a by-pass and you just sweep on by ,, not even knowing,,✨☔
Thank you for this video. I'm from the UK, but have lived in Germany for the past 16 years. What you had, was for me a box of memories. The pink wafers I used to eat with my Gran when I was 5 maybe 6. Snowballs I loved and the party rings, well no kids party was the same without a plate of those on the table. Subbing as I really enjoyed the video, and the chemistry you both have. X
I’ve watched a few of your trying British snacks videos now and I can honestly say that you guys are just a pleasure to watch. I love how much you both appreciate new flavours, and you’re not afraid to try new things, it really makes me smile. Greetings from the UK! 🇬🇧
I love watching your videos trying UK snacks, its a hard time here in the UK at the moment with our 3rd lockdown due to covid, so love watching these type of videos at the moment, Matchmakers are one of my favourites they do come in different flavours i mainly now just have them at Christmas, they used to be made by a British company Rowntrees Mackintosh and they use to make all the Quality street products and also Rolo's, the original KitKat's, Aeros, Munchies, toffee crisp etc until the late 80s when Nestle bought the products, Mini cheddars are delicious they also come in different flavours and are made with real cheese. look forward to watching more :)
first video i've watched of yours and i absolutely love you guys and love the little cheers you do , it's so sweet and you guys are so sweet how you speak about our snacks...love from the uk :)
Just subscribed, really enjoy your channel. Seeing you enjoy snacks and treats that we take for granted, reminds me of how many great treats we have here in the UK.
Hi I'm a new viewer it is a pleasure to watch you eat British snacks as I'm from Wales the UK and American people and your food culture are amazing please keep making your videos your a real nice couple 😊😊
That's so great! A friend of ours that is a vegetarian had mentioned that a long time ago and we completely forgot. She said that she takes meaty crisps and cheese and makes sandwiches. Thanks so much for watching!
@@loveandjunkfood ,, different brands also do a variety of greatness,, but! ,, consider this as well,, in the field of prawn snacks,, we can offer KP skips,, that are meltingly light ,, prawn crackers which looklike puffed styrofoam and are strong in prawnness,, or scampi fries,, the holy grail of prawntastic,, they're like a cross between monkey nut shells and pork rinds but r as yummy as good donuts 😏🦐🦐🦐🌺🌺🌺
@@loveandjunkfood I never seem to speak as I do in these comments,, I sound like Richard Bryers in 'Ever Decreasing Circles' in here for some reason,, a BBC tvshow from 1985,, very British,, you'd love it !! ,, quite a lot is on UA-cam😏
Tea videos coming soon. We are not tea drinkers so we are going to be sampling some to see what we like and don't like. I know that our viewers from the UK can definitely help us with that! Thank you for watching!
Where I grew up our local Pantomine Dame used to throw Wagon wheels into the audience as part of their act! I was never fortunate enough to catch one though!
Marmite crisps are my fave! Literally my go to crisp! Glad you liked them, and never been a fan of party rings the top is too hard and was gutted they were all the same flavour haha xxx
Hello , I'm from Telford , Shropshire , UK (West Midlands) Central England , near Birmingham. I've just started watching your videos and they're funny, heart warming and makes me proud to be British. Glad you like our snacks!! Keep up the great videos and ..PLEASE Come to England and try the restaurants , we have soooo much to offer!! Best wishes !! ✊🏾👍🏾🤞🏾👅🧘🏾☮️💟❤️ \
@@loveandjunkfood ahh will do, have a look and see on line as you’ll discover all sorts of weird and wonderful flavours of your favourite choices. Keep safe and yes I’ll look forward to your new video (newly uk fan) x
I can’t believe I have just sat for over a hour watching you try lots of yummy things from the UK where I am from, & I loved every single second, thank you. Xxx❤️🇬🇧😘😍
You guys are v eat. I can see your genuine excitement. It reminds me of when my girlfriend in Texas got her first delivery of British snacks, and of course we were on video call, so i got to share the moment. It goes without sayiing that she has sent me stuff too, and given me a love of original twinkies, beef jerky, nutter butter and numerous other snacks lol. Most of all Jones root beer, sge chose that brand because she knows i'm not a huge fan of vanilla or liquorice especially in drinks, and that is largely wintermint flavoured (or mouthwash as i used to call it, lol but in root beer i love it).
From the UK, greetings to you both 👋🏻. You're a lovely couple and I love your channel! Thank you for giving a few of our eats and treats a try. My favourite crisps are Walkers Prawn Cocktail and Salt and Vinegar varieties and I just love a Terry's Chocolate Orange (my favourite chocolate). Great selection you have there of all kinds of goodies. Snowballs take me right back to my childhood, as do Wagon Wheels - the best! Marmite is definitely an acquired taste, but I like it spread thinly on toast. It's a strong flavour. It's also great added to a rich beef stew 👌🏻 I see the lady also sent you some Jaffa Cakes.....I can munch through a packet of them in minutes, but then I'm a greedy guts lol. They are great! I have to say, I love the American Cheetos and tried a bag when a friend brought a few back from America. Our version are called Wotsits - very similar. Ambrosia custard and Birds's custard powder are also British staples and I can easily eat the Ambrosia custard straight from the tin - but it's great with any steamed dessert or poured warm over apple crumble 😋. I'm a new subscriber by the way. All the best, Chris.
Love how you did all these in the same video! Thought youd end up splitting it into 2 parts! Our crisps are the best🤩🇬🇧 I would like to say that they're biscuits not cookies! Cookies are different😊 Enjoyed as Always!
Thank you so much for watching! We had contemplated splitting them up and then just went for it. We thought that it may be too long to watch but decided that the viewer could choose to break up watching it or not. So, fun for us!
Try a snowball with ice-cream. I grew up in my dad’s ice-cream and sweet shop. I saw every new confection coming in and, often, being discontinued. There were many various ice-cream options: wafers, oysters, sliders/chocolate wafers, double chocolate wafers and... bashers. A basher was a wafer with a rectangular slide of ice-cream, a snowball on top and finished off with another wafer. Alternatively, a snowball could be put inside a chocolate-wafer ice-cream slider. Also, just a plate of ice cream and a snowball. PS. Matchmakers come also in orange, coffee and I think (but can’t remember) another. They’re great nibbles for sitting in on a quiet evening watching a movie. Also good as after dinner treats with coffee if you have friends ‘round for a dinner party. PPS. I have a dobermann called “Spartacus”.
Love McCoys crisps! One crisp I wish we could borrow from you are Pizza Pringles!! Definitely not boring! I also come from where Marmite is made and I wish I liked it because it stinks 😂 Love you guys so much!
Great video, guys! I'm from the UK. It's fun to see people getting so excited about snacks we take for granted because we've always had them. We don't really use the word candy much at all - we call things biscuits or wafers or chocolate or sweets. Our supermarkets usually put all the biscuits together (sweet and savoury ones) in one place and all the chocolate and sweets in another. Most of the sweets (things that aren't chocolate or biscuits) are marketed towards children and are rarely eaten by adults, although there are some 'adult' sweets too (such as Werthers, boiled sweets and mints). A lot of the chocolate bars are aimed squarely at a sophisticated adult audience - my local village supermarket stocks over 20 different types of dark chocolate bars, for example.
Just watched your channel. Thank you so much for making what was quite a grim day much brighter! Love your enthusiasm. Even for the twiglets. Happy to send you some snacks from this side of the pond, should you want anything specific. Keep the videos coming..
Hi Phil! Thank you so much! We are grateful for anything! I don't know what is on the way from anyone else but we haven't tried actual marmite yet. Or the chocolate orange with the popping candy, yorkshire tea are a few ideas. Jon loves coffee too and we haven't tried any from there. Honestly, anything at all. We really love our subscribers and you have certainly all brightened some dark days for us as well. Much love x
This is a really good box,, with a really good selection,, and a really good review,, too many scrummies to make a pick,, I'd go mex crisps,, squashies,, snowballs,, boost,, but I'd really have my eye on those matchmakers 😏Yum ! x
There are gingerbread chocolate digestives and Caramel Indulgent Chocolate Cherry Digestives as well as dark chocolate ones. Matchmakers come in orange too. I had forgotten that I had some Parma Violets in a drawer so I've just eaten a pack of those, thanks to you two. Oh, and Jaffa cakes are traditionally orange...as in Jaffa oranges.
The violet sweets reminded me of a holiday in France. There was a fab ice cream shop and you could taste before buying. There was a deep purple ice cream and I had a taste. It was like mountains of the violet sweets crunched and frozen. It was awful! I pulled a face and the girl said, c’est mechant oui? It’s awful yes? I always had rhubarb ice cream, it was divine!
I am so happy i found your channel, I am from England and loved seeing you try some of our native snacks :D so much i have watched about 5 of your videos lol look so forward to looking through the rest of your content, you are on my list of top youtube viewing :D and you are so cute together!!!
Hi Chloe! That is so sweet, thank you so very much! Our subscribers make us laugh, cheer us on and have meant everything to us during this last year especially! Thank you, thank you! We have so many ideas, and things coming soon. Can't wait to share it all with you! xx
@@loveandjunkfood Really looking forward to seeing what you come up with, I have to say that I love your reviews. I have seen so many of the Americans try Brit snacks and sweet videos and a lot of them are very concerned with having to do a workout after. You guys just enjoy it and give a review that honest and not tainted by how many calories or if its bad for you. I love that! I came for the reviews being a Brit myself its always fun to see what other countries think of our foods... but I have to say I am loving all your other content too and will be checking out your gaming channel also (my hubby and I are also very into games and love overcooked too :D)
Wagon wheel nibble around the edge then the top biscuit. Then the rest..thw ones workout jam i prefer. So want you to try Hotel chocolate chocolate.. Ill send !!! I find most of our regular choccolate has changed over the years..very sweet confeciony.
My daughter works for Hotel Chocolat, sign up with your email and get treats through the year. You can buy different types of hot chocolate, vanilla, cafe latte, salted caramel etc and I would recommend getting the Velvetiser but it very expensive. I believe they have an outlet in NYC.
Hi I’m a new subscriber from the uk.We have some fabulous flavoured crisps.Love the marmite.Yes we do have variety packs,with different choice of flavours .love ur videos xx
@@loveandjunkfood I’m Irish, moved over to England as an infant, my sisters moved back to Ireland and they dream of Walkers prawn cocktail crisps. If you want the flavour as a dip, just mix tomato ketchup and mayonnaise together, it makes what we call a seafood sauce, that’s the flavour x
Hey guys really enjoyed watching this, its one of the better reviews of our snacks ive watched :) hope you enjoyed. I do love your Reeses Pieces and Jelly Belly sweets too 😋
Hi Rob! Awe, that is so nice. Thank you so much for watching and for your comment! Both of those are VERY popular! We have a fun upcoming video with some jelly belly stuff soon.
Hi guys, New Sub here! I just want to say that your videos are so chill and warming that when I'm watching them they just make me smile :) Love all the way from England, I'm glad you like our snacks! :D x
I know what it’s like to have check every chocolate for nuts as I have a serious nut allergy and I can’t even be near someone that eats nuts that’s how bad it is. I love your videos by the way it’s really cool to see you both trying British treats and snacks and enjoying them. Galaxy is amazingly smooth and silky and Cadbury’s is tasty too. Matchmakers mint are amazing and so are Munchies but I don’t know if they were ones you had but the fudge brownie ones are really nice as well. I have never seen the Cookie Dough ones before they are new to me even though I live in the UK I have never seen them before!!! Thanks for making such cool videos
Hi Holz! Thank you so much! It's funny because I didn't have a nut allergy as a child. It seemed severe for a while and has now tapered off quite a bit. I tend to avoid nuts but have accidently eaten something with nuts and had no reaction. I think maybe at the time that my allergies were worse, my asthma was not under control. Still careful though. Sending love as I know that is no fun! Those Munchies are a must try! Thank you for watching! x
Hi, Marmite is made from the foam you get on a beer. They add salt and other stuff to it. They cook it in big metal bowls staring it so it wil not stick to the bottom of the bowl. The foam reduces to a brown or almost black colour. Checking it every so often to see when its read. When it is ready to put in the jars they leave it to cool dowm. So it will not crack the jars. Add a lid and a label to the jars. Then pack them in boxes, send them to the shops for us to pick up. Stay safe from Covid-19 to you two and your loved ones.
Hey there Laura and Jon, I'm glad you both love some of our treats, its really good to see people with an adventurous side... I was wondering how hot are American crisps and do they compare in flavour to my favourite Seabrook Fire eaters, well I know this is a job for Jon and so when I go shopping this weekend I will be sure to pick up some of my other favourites for you both to try
Hi Andrew! That is so sweet! We really love to try new things. When we travel, we have a rule to only eat local or at places that we don't have around home. Some crisps are so hot. The one chip challenge is very popular and so is extra spicy like flaming hot. Jon does love spice, particularly in food! In our garden tour coming soon, he will show off all of his pepper plants.
If you like shortbread, then you need to get your hands on some marks and Spencer’s (uk). They are wonderful, I brought and received a tin at Christmas.... delicious!! 2nd only to my own homemade ❤️
Awe...thank you!!! We've been away sick for a few weeks, been uploaded some older things etc but we are back now and have SOOOOO many UK videos to film! Glad you're here!
I love McCoy's. Rarely have them though. All their flavours are good. I also really like Nik Naks. With the nice and spicy, the emphasis is more on the 'nice' than the spicy. They also do scampi and lemon, make your breath smelly but that shouldn't be a issue with quarantine.
Match maker's are typically eaten in ukas a after dinner mint type thing. They are so popular and nice. You also get a lovely orange flavour.and salted caramel.
I’m new to your channel but I already know I’m going to be spending a lot of time here. I could watch you guys eat crisps for hours! P.s I love how seriously you take the favourite rankings 😂 love from the UK
I remember going to America for a holiday and ordering food and one of the things said chips and as a British person I thought our kind of chips to witch I learnt you call crisps chips I was blown away and had to double check everything I ordered
match makers orange are amazing and if you like a chew bar more amazing then a stinger try a wham bar .loved watching you trying our treats do you have pork scratching crisps there ?
The cookie dough Munchies are nice but the original ones with biscuit in the middle are the best! I'm gonna buy some tomorrow after watching this 😂 Also John's shirt is awesome!
If you've tried these, what was your favorite?
The McCoys Mexican Chilli are my favourite out of the ones you tried :)
Seabrooks Crisps my fave xxx Prawn Cocktail are good as well ❤️❤️❤️
Marmite ...better in crisp form than the spread 🤮
Cheese & Onion Walkers are my absolute favourite... but Prawn Cocktail is a close second!

@@Bexyboo88 a fantastic job with the selection. Party rings hold a special place for me. One of my earliest memories is eating them at a freinds party 😅😁
I really like you two!
Party rings remind me of being a kid. Everybody's Nana had party rings in the cupboard for when the grandkids visited.
Thank you Tony!!! That is so nice! Party rings really do look like a Nana snack!
Party rings were a staple food at a birthday party when I was a kid x
Oh fun! They are absolutely adorable!
They still at some parties even 53rd birthday ones
LOL Don't you feel sick eating all that junk ? 😂
It's not a party without party rings and cheese and pineapple on cocktail sticks
Im 32 and i still have party rings at my birthday
Fox's have an amazing range of biscuits. You will love them all
Thank you so much! Can not wait to try more!
Everybody nodded when they said frazzles. Oh yeah!
Custard is best other things. Could have it with fresh sliced bananas, good with things like apple pie or any warm desert. In England we often have it with sponge puddings and a fruit crumble.
with the refreshers I always let them melt on my tongue a bit before I start eating them :)
Great idea! Will give that a go!

I love watching your videos trying UK snacks, its a hard time here in the UK at the moment with our 3rd lockdown due to covid, so love watching these type of videos at the moment, Matchmakers are one of my favourites they do come in different flavours i mainly now just have them at Christmas, they used to be made by a British company Rowntrees Mackintosh and they use to make all the Quality street products and also Rolo's, the original KitKat's, Aeros, Munchies, toffee crisp etc until the late 80s when Nestle bought the products, Mini cheddars are delicious they also come in different flavours and are made with real cheese. look forward to watching more :)
If you get a jar of marmite put a teaspoon of it in your gravy when having roast meat. It brings out the flavour of the meat. 😍😋👌
Do you use bisto? As it’s my fav as it’s really rich this sounds like a good idea but don’t want to make it overpowering
sat in the pub, few pints, few packets of crisps, absolute bliss!!!!
first video i've watched of yours and i absolutely love you guys and love the little cheers you do , it's so sweet and you guys are so sweet how you speak about our snacks...love from the uk :)
You guys are so funny I am enjoying all of your videos. Thank you for sharing!
So need all of you guys doing this during nasty Lockdown xx Makes the days bearable xx Thank you very much ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Oh Julie! That is so sweet! Thank you so much. To be honest, doing these videos has kept us entertained during this time as well.
Just found your channel and really enjoy you guys, love from the UK. 💗
Just subscribed, really enjoy your channel. Seeing you enjoy snacks and treats that we take for granted, reminds me of how many great treats we have here in the UK.
Hi Dave! Thank you so much! Welcome!
Glad you enjoyed these snacks, marmite is the original made in England veggiemite is the Australian version.
Hi I'm a new viewer it is a pleasure to watch you eat British snacks as I'm from Wales the UK and American people and your food culture are amazing please keep making your videos your a real nice couple 😊😊
A large majority of British chips with meat flavours are actually vegetarian if you look at the ingredients
That's so great! A friend of ours that is a vegetarian had mentioned that a long time ago and we completely forgot. She said that she takes meaty crisps and cheese and makes sandwiches. Thanks so much for watching!
*crisps
Whereas Walkers Cheese & Onion flavour famously aren't for some reason! At least they never used to be until recently
Enjoyed the video,all the best from England, enjoy and stay safe 💞
Thank you Paul, very much! All of our best back. Crazy world we live in right now, be safe!
Oh I’m so glad you got to try the red leister mini cheddars
Oh wow! We really loved those!
The prawn cocktail crisps, everytime I see those packets I get nostalgic for my time in the u.k. my absolute favorite!!
Oh my gosh! They are just the BEST!
@@loveandjunkfood ,, different brands also do a variety of greatness,, but! ,, consider this as well,, in the field of prawn snacks,, we can offer KP skips,, that are meltingly light ,, prawn crackers which looklike puffed styrofoam and are strong in prawnness,, or scampi fries,, the holy grail of prawntastic,, they're like a cross between monkey nut shells and pork rinds but r as yummy as good donuts 😏🦐🦐🦐🌺🌺🌺
@@loveandjunkfood I never seem to speak as I do in these comments,, I sound like Richard Bryers in 'Ever Decreasing Circles' in here for some reason,, a BBC tvshow from 1985,, very British,, you'd love it !! ,, quite a lot is on UA-cam😏
You clearly have some Brit DNA 🤣…fabulous description of our treats 👍
theres an alarming lack of hot tea around so many packs of biscuits.
Tea videos coming soon. We are not tea drinkers so we are going to be sampling some to see what we like and don't like. I know that our viewers from the UK can definitely help us with that! Thank you for watching!
It’s bringing all the British viewers out in hives. 🤣
Hi John and Laura glad I came across your channel looking forward to seeing your videos love❤️😀Michelle from UK 🇬🇧🇺🇲
Such a sweet couple!
You guys are awesome and you deserve a sub! Also, another reason why I subbed was because of how epic John’s beard is lol. Huge love from the UK!
Thank you Gari! I love his beard! xx
Try the birds custard over hot apple pie. Perfection.
Where I grew up our local Pantomine Dame used to throw Wagon wheels into the audience as part of their act! I was never fortunate enough to catch one though!
What? So fun!
This is great guys ! I like most meat flavour crisps as well. xx
Marmite crisps are my fave! Literally my go to crisp! Glad you liked them, and never been a fan of party rings the top is too hard and was gutted they were all the same flavour haha xxx
Put them in your mouth sugar side down until it melts. Then eat the biscuit.
Yes! the Party Rings are delicious dipped in tea! 😋
Hello , I'm from Telford , Shropshire , UK (West Midlands) Central England , near Birmingham. I've just started watching your videos and they're funny, heart warming and makes me proud to be British. Glad you like our snacks!! Keep up the great videos and ..PLEASE Come to England and try the restaurants , we have soooo much to offer!! Best wishes !! ✊🏾👍🏾🤞🏾👅🧘🏾☮️💟❤️

Ahhh really loved this video, what a lovely couple. X
Thank you Helen! Just received another box from the UK, look for that video soon! x
@@loveandjunkfood ahh will do, have a look and see on line as you’ll discover all sorts of weird and wonderful flavours of your favourite choices. Keep safe and yes I’ll look forward to your new video (newly uk fan) x
I can’t believe I have just sat for over a hour watching you try lots of yummy things from the UK where I am from, & I loved every single second, thank you. Xxx❤️🇬🇧😘😍
Hi Sarah! Thank you so much! Such a pleasure. We have received more this week so watch for lots more UK snacks soon!
I love videos like this!! ❤
New to your channel. It's a Saturday morning and I am beginning a binge watch. Greetings from the UK :)
Hi Lee! Thank you and welcome! x
You guys are v eat. I can see your genuine excitement. It reminds me of when my girlfriend in Texas got her first delivery of British snacks, and of course we were on video call, so i got to share the moment. It goes without sayiing that she has sent me stuff too, and given me a love of original twinkies, beef jerky, nutter butter and numerous other snacks lol. Most of all Jones root beer, sge chose that brand because she knows i'm not a huge fan of vanilla or liquorice especially in drinks, and that is largely wintermint flavoured (or mouthwash as i used to call it, lol but in root beer i love it).
Another great video. I will be buying some of these things, reminds me about them as you forget. I would try the custard with a sponge pudding. xx
Hippos are amazing 😍 and love the mint matchsticks, you have to try tea cakes but don't cut them have to bite them 😂
From the UK, greetings to you both 👋🏻. You're a lovely couple and I love your channel! Thank you for giving a few of our eats and treats a try. My favourite crisps are Walkers Prawn Cocktail and Salt and Vinegar varieties and I just love a Terry's Chocolate Orange (my favourite chocolate).
Great selection you have there of all kinds of goodies. Snowballs take me right back to my childhood, as do Wagon Wheels - the best!
Marmite is definitely an acquired taste, but I like it spread thinly on toast. It's a strong flavour. It's also great added to a rich beef stew 👌🏻
I see the lady also sent you some Jaffa Cakes.....I can munch through a packet of them in minutes, but then I'm a greedy guts lol. They are great!
I have to say, I love the American Cheetos and tried a bag when a friend brought a few back from America. Our version are called Wotsits - very similar.
Ambrosia custard and Birds's custard powder are also British staples and I can easily eat the Ambrosia custard straight from the tin - but it's great with any steamed dessert or poured warm over apple crumble 😋.
I'm a new subscriber by the way.
All the best,
Chris.
Marmite crisps are a good way to get the flavour. First timers always use too much when they try the proper spread.
Love how you did all these in the same video! Thought youd end up splitting it into 2 parts! Our crisps are the best🤩🇬🇧 I would like to say that they're biscuits not cookies! Cookies are different😊 Enjoyed as Always!
Thank you so much for watching! We had contemplated splitting them up and then just went for it. We thought that it may be too long to watch but decided that the viewer could choose to break up watching it or not. So, fun for us!
Try a snowball with ice-cream. I grew up in my dad’s ice-cream and sweet shop. I saw every new confection coming in and, often, being discontinued.
There were many various ice-cream options: wafers, oysters, sliders/chocolate wafers, double chocolate wafers and... bashers. A basher was a wafer with a rectangular slide of ice-cream, a snowball on top and finished off with another wafer. Alternatively, a snowball could be put inside a chocolate-wafer ice-cream slider. Also, just a plate of ice cream and a snowball.
PS. Matchmakers come also in orange, coffee and I think (but can’t remember) another. They’re great nibbles for sitting in on a quiet evening watching a movie. Also good as after dinner treats with coffee if you have friends ‘round for a dinner party.
PPS. I have a dobermann called “Spartacus”.
We often by the oysters for our Kelly’s vanilla ice cream. We used to by them from the ice cream van when we were younger.
Love McCoys crisps!
One crisp I wish we could borrow from you are Pizza Pringles!! Definitely not boring!
I also come from where Marmite is made and I wish I liked it because it stinks 😂
Love you guys so much!
Yep the snowballs are in the biscuit section of the store & match makers are with the sweet but they are mostly bought at christmas
Great video, guys! I'm from the UK. It's fun to see people getting so excited about snacks we take for granted because we've always had them. We don't really use the word candy much at all - we call things biscuits or wafers or chocolate or sweets. Our supermarkets usually put all the biscuits together (sweet and savoury ones) in one place and all the chocolate and sweets in another. Most of the sweets (things that aren't chocolate or biscuits) are marketed towards children and are rarely eaten by adults, although there are some 'adult' sweets too (such as Werthers, boiled sweets and mints). A lot of the chocolate bars are aimed squarely at a sophisticated adult audience - my local village supermarket stocks over 20 different types of dark chocolate bars, for example.
Palma Violets are hands down one of my favourites.
I don't really eat much chocolate but I absolutely love mint matchmakers, great video, much love ❤️ from England
Matchmakers come in mint or orange and you serve them with coffee. Loved watching your reaction.
Just watched your channel. Thank you so much for making what was quite a grim day much brighter! Love your enthusiasm. Even for the twiglets. Happy to send you some snacks from this side of the pond, should you want anything specific. Keep the videos coming..
Hi Phil! Thank you so much! We are grateful for anything! I don't know what is on the way from anyone else but we haven't tried actual marmite yet. Or the chocolate orange with the popping candy, yorkshire tea are a few ideas. Jon loves coffee too and we haven't tried any from there. Honestly, anything at all. We really love our subscribers and you have certainly all brightened some dark days for us as well. Much love x
This is a really good box,, with a really good selection,, and a really good review,, too many scrummies to make a pick,, I'd go mex crisps,, squashies,, snowballs,, boost,, but I'd really have my eye on those matchmakers 😏Yum ! x
If you like marmite (yeast extract) you should try it on toast, delicious.
Love your channel. Greetings from the UK.
Hi Liz! Thank you for stopping by! Greeting back to you!
There are gingerbread chocolate digestives and Caramel Indulgent Chocolate Cherry Digestives as well as dark chocolate ones. Matchmakers come in orange too. I had forgotten that I had some Parma Violets in a drawer so I've just eaten a pack of those, thanks to you two. Oh, and Jaffa cakes are traditionally orange...as in Jaffa oranges.
The main ingredient of Marmite is the Yeast Extract that remains after the beer brewing process!
Marmite = yeast extract spread. It's from concentrated yeast extract, which is a by-product from brewing beer.
The violet sweets reminded me of a holiday in France. There was a fab ice cream shop and you could taste before buying. There was a deep purple ice cream and I had a taste. It was like mountains of the violet sweets crunched and frozen. It was awful! I pulled a face and the girl said, c’est mechant oui? It’s awful yes?
I always had rhubarb ice cream, it was divine!
I love the way you taste our UK crisps/chips for the 1st bite.........but please tell me you finished them off
I'm British and I love you guys. Only just found your channel today! XXX🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hi Vicky! Welcome. We really love our subscribers. Glad to have you! x
I am so happy i found your channel, I am from England and loved seeing you try some of our native snacks :D so much i have watched about 5 of your videos lol look so forward to looking through the rest of your content, you are on my list of top youtube viewing :D and you are so cute together!!!
Hi Chloe! That is so sweet, thank you so very much! Our subscribers make us laugh, cheer us on and have meant everything to us during this last year especially! Thank you, thank you! We have so many ideas, and things coming soon. Can't wait to share it all with you! xx
@@loveandjunkfood Really looking forward to seeing what you come up with, I have to say that I love your reviews. I have seen so many of the Americans try Brit snacks and sweet videos and a lot of them are very concerned with having to do a workout after. You guys just enjoy it and give a review that honest and not tainted by how many calories or if its bad for you. I love that! I came for the reviews being a Brit myself its always fun to see what other countries think of our foods... but I have to say I am loving all your other content too and will be checking out your gaming channel also (my hubby and I are also very into games and love overcooked too :D)
Had to come back from the future to watch it again.
Wagon wheel nibble around the edge then the top biscuit. Then the rest..thw ones workout jam i prefer.
So want you to try Hotel chocolate chocolate..
Ill send !!! I find most
of our regular choccolate has changed over the years..very sweet confeciony.
My daughter works for Hotel Chocolat, sign up with your email and get treats through the year. You can buy different types of hot chocolate, vanilla, cafe latte, salted caramel etc and I would recommend getting the Velvetiser but it very expensive. I believe they have an outlet in NYC.
I love how appreciative of UK flavours you are. Any plans to visit UK?
The matchmakers are indeed after dinner...the orange are lovely but the salted caramel are AMAZING :)
Hi I’m a new subscriber from the uk.We have some fabulous flavoured crisps.Love the marmite.Yes we do have variety packs,with different choice of flavours .love ur videos xx
Hi Deb! Thank you so much! We love these videos. So fun!
Those Seabrook beefy crisps are my go to snacks right now.
Soooo good! We are going to dream about these crisps for a long while!
@@loveandjunkfood I’m Irish, moved over to England as an infant, my sisters moved back to Ireland and they dream of Walkers prawn cocktail crisps. If you want the flavour as a dip, just mix tomato ketchup and mayonnaise together, it makes what we call a seafood sauce, that’s the flavour x
Hey guys really enjoyed watching this, its one of the better reviews of our snacks ive watched :) hope you enjoyed. I do love your Reeses Pieces and Jelly Belly sweets too 😋
Hi Rob! Awe, that is so nice. Thank you so much for watching and for your comment! Both of those are VERY popular! We have a fun upcoming video with some jelly belly stuff soon.
Yes and I love American twinkies they sell them in B&M now
Hi guys, New Sub here! I just want to say that your videos are so chill and warming that when I'm watching them they just make me smile :) Love all the way from England, I'm glad you like our snacks! :D x
Louise!!! That is so sweet! Thank you so much! Welcome to our framily! We love our supporters so much! x
I know what it’s like to have check every chocolate for nuts as I have a serious nut allergy and I can’t even be near someone that eats nuts that’s how bad it is. I love your videos by the way it’s really cool to see you both trying British treats and snacks and enjoying them. Galaxy is amazingly smooth and silky and Cadbury’s is tasty too. Matchmakers mint are amazing and so are Munchies but I don’t know if they were ones you had but the fudge brownie ones are really nice as well. I have never seen the Cookie Dough ones before they are new to me even though I live in the UK I have never seen them before!!! Thanks for making such cool videos
Hi Holz! Thank you so much! It's funny because I didn't have a nut allergy as a child. It seemed severe for a while and has now tapered off quite a bit. I tend to avoid nuts but have accidently eaten something with nuts and had no reaction. I think maybe at the time that my allergies were worse, my asthma was not under control. Still careful though. Sending love as I know that is no fun! Those Munchies are a must try! Thank you for watching! x
40:32 I love how she says "met", like it's a love story and their eyes met across the room.
LOL! True story!
Orange matchmakers are lovely.
we have nouget here with jujubes in it....I prefer those over the kind with nuts. I will have to look to see if it has nuts hidden in them too.
McCoy's or walkers squares are my go-to crisps ,absolutely hate marmite 😂.great video
Hi, Marmite is made from the foam you get on a beer. They add salt and other stuff to it. They cook it in big metal bowls staring it so it wil not stick to the bottom of the bowl. The foam reduces to a brown or almost black colour. Checking it every so often to see when its read. When it is ready to put in the jars they leave it to cool dowm. So it will not crack the jars. Add a lid and a label to the jars. Then pack them in boxes, send them to the shops for us to pick up. Stay safe from Covid-19 to you two and your loved ones.
Hey there Laura and Jon, I'm glad you both love some of our treats, its really good to see people with an adventurous side...
I was wondering how hot are American crisps and do they compare in flavour to my favourite Seabrook Fire eaters, well I know this is a job for Jon and so when I go shopping this weekend I will be sure to pick up some of my other favourites for you both to try
Hi Andrew! That is so sweet! We really love to try new things. When we travel, we have a rule to only eat local or at places that we don't have around home. Some crisps are so hot. The one chip challenge is very popular and so is extra spicy like flaming hot. Jon does love spice, particularly in food! In our garden tour coming soon, he will show off all of his pepper plants.
My fav are the mint matchmakers. Me and my boyfriend get a lot of them at Christmas.
We have Wagonwheels in Canada too....they are sooooo good.
Really? Well, that's a quicker trip to get some!
You guys need to try Scottish short bread it’s out of this world even tho I’m from the uk I’ve only just tried it my self last week
Loving your reaction ♥️
You need to try haggis xxxxx
Hello from Portsmouth UK love your channel
Hello there Blake! Thank you!
what a lovely couple its been a joy to see your reactions keep up the good work :) TRY A PRAWN COCK TAIL CRISP SANDWICH IS THE TOPS
Thank you so very much! Much more to come!
If you like shortbread, then you need to get your hands on some marks and Spencer’s (uk). They are wonderful, I brought and received a tin at Christmas.... delicious!! 2nd only to my own homemade ❤️
First video I've saw and I love you guys😍
Awe...thank you!!! We've been away sick for a few weeks, been uploaded some older things etc but we are back now and have SOOOOO many UK videos to film! Glad you're here!
@@loveandjunkfood I've emailed 2 emails of yours and messaged you on facebook but no response. Please can you reply to me. Thank you 🧡💙
I love McCoy's. Rarely have them though. All their flavours are good. I also really like Nik Naks. With the nice and spicy, the emphasis is more on the 'nice' than the spicy. They also do scampi and lemon, make your breath smelly but that shouldn't be a issue with quarantine.
Lots of multi packs of crisps will normally have 6 in the pack, 2 of each flavours.
Match maker's are typically eaten in ukas a after dinner mint type thing. They are so popular and nice. You also get a lovely orange flavour.and salted caramel.
They are so lovely! Light and full of flavor! We have only tried the one flavor but we loved them so much!
I’m new to your channel but I already know I’m going to be spending a lot of time here. I could watch you guys eat crisps for hours!
P.s I love how seriously you take the favourite rankings 😂 love from the UK
LOL! That's funny and we never really thought about it but we SO DO! Thank you so much! We love our subscribers, welcome to the family!
more than welcome to move guys
its just a pond as you guys say
You need to try tunnocks tea cakes, like snowballs but better, also tunnocks caramel wafers if he’s a wafer fan, next level.
Oh wow! We will look, thank you so much for the tip! And for watching!
Oooh this is very interesting video ❤️❤️ giving a Big thumbs up 👍👍👍 see you again take care 😊💐🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎵
Thank you!!! See you soon!
I remember going to America for a holiday and ordering food and one of the things said chips and as a British person I thought our kind of chips to witch I learnt you call crisps chips I was blown away and had to double check everything I ordered
Yes! We would feel the same there I think. Would love to have actual Fish and Chips there! What part of America did you visit?
match makers orange are amazing and if you like a chew bar more amazing then a stinger try a wham bar .loved watching you trying our treats do you have pork scratching crisps there ?
The cookie dough Munchies are nice but the original ones with biscuit in the middle are the best! I'm gonna buy some tomorrow after watching this 😂 Also John's shirt is awesome!
Oh those sound so good too! Thank you! Laura buys me all of my cool shirts :)
