    Great video man.. One thing I find funny is how Brits think there food is unique or foreign to us. We have he same stuff like tea and cookies and beans on toast. We just have better options to it like biscuits and gravy and coffee and doughnuts.

    I would say while milk with hot tea is not common in the US, it's not unknown either, I have an Aunt that drinks milk with her tea. In fact, especially in the Northeast, we drink a lot of hot tea, maybe not an everyday thing like in Britain, but it's certainly not an uncommon drink either.

    digestives aren't super popular in the US, except maybe among hispanics. Marias made by Goya are pretty well liked. i love the chocolate ones, though they are more like the rich tea biscuits though, taste like animal crackers and aren't dipped in chocolate but made with cocoa powder.

    I'm in the Pacific Northwest, where it seems coffee is a religion, especially among my family and friends, but I've always been a tea person- and I've always done milk and sugar in my tea. I enjoy baking, so I definitely prefer making something, rather than having a store bought cookie.

    Thurston, your inner brit really showed on this one. I didn't recognize any of those "biscuits". I drink tea more than coffee but I almost always drink them without any sugary component to them. I'm different from most Americans in that regard. This was a great watch. I'm really enjoying your reactions to the Jolly channel.😁

    My dad drinks tea with milk and sugar all day every day. If he has to leave the house, he's not leaving without making a cup to go. If he's at a diner/restaurant, he's ordering a hot tea with milk and sugar. We live in northern New Jersey, and one time, we went out west to Yellowstone, and they only had herbal teas. No black tea in sight. Had to drive a bit out of the way to find the nearest Walmart so we could get him a box of black tea bags. The man is a tea fiend

    Fun video and reaction. Coffee person here in the U.S. Hot green or peppermint tea when I'm feeling sick. Coffee is an American obsession. Plenty of tea drinkers, too -- but I don't see tea overtaking coffee in popularity.

    I barely started drinking coffee five years ago. Only one cup a day is what allow myself. Tea is what I go to when I'm not in the mood for coffee.
    Cinammon tea with ginger is for when I'm under the weather. Yerba mate (hot not cold) is perfect if you're looking for that adequate coffee substitute. Green tea (hot) for a mild pick me up in the afternoon. Mint tea for after a meal. Hibiscus for warmth or a cooling treat in winter or summer.
    Now black tea, I go for Typhoo Extra Strong.

    I think milk in tea was considered odd in the US about 15-20-25 years ago.....
    But because of British television becoming popular, and English sports getting some traction, it's gotten rather popular in the US. I can't say for Canada, though, because I've never lived there.

    Digestives aren’t very common here but a lot of our packaged cookies have very similar textures and flavors. The tea experience all seems to come down to who’s preparing it and how long they let it steep. I put sugar and cream in mine.

    Hobnobs are nice but Golden crunch is the God tier biscuit - that and white chocolate and rasperry cookies. Lotus biscoff is also quite nice, and those shortbread fingers too - especially the butter ones as some of the cheaper ones aren't quite as good! A good lightly sugared filter coffee with milk and a lotus biscoff, or more. And you know what? I haven't had party rings in a while - they are definitely a sweet tooth biscuit.

    It's not common for us to have kettles. It's common for us to have coffee makers (it makes drip coffee because we despise coffee crystals and like our coffee freshly grpund). I am unusual though. I have an electric kettle for tea sometimes but I dont drink it daily.

  • @WhatDayIsItTrumpDay
    @WhatDayIsItTrumpDay Рік тому

    I watched the raw video of fhis a few dsys ago, and the comment I made about the tea, is "great, even British tea is flavorless" or something to that effect. So what's with the British pallet in not making food with any discernable flavor? You shouldn't need a cookie/biscuit to get flavor out of a beverage. Sounds like y'all dom't leave your tea bags in lomg enough or sweeten it once you're done brewing it. I haven't had hot tea in quite a while, but for a cup of hot tea, i think i''d put one or two Sweet n Lows in it. And just enough milk to make it look somewhat milky. It looked like Ollie or the other guy put a bit too much much milk in it for my tastes. Same thing goes for creamer in my coffee (i use French Vanilla creamer in mine). I like it when it's just enough to make it brown rather than black (as coffee is). If it starts getting tan or white, that's too much creamer.

    Milk in tea, yuck. Tea is not strong enough to stand up to milk. I don't even use milk in coffee. And I don't understand the label "digestive". Sounds like medicine. The Jammie Dodgers seem like Linzer Cookies that you would have at Christmas but I have never had them packaged, just fresh with jam that is not gummy.

      @TimpBizkit Рік тому +1

      Those relatively savoury short crust pastry and jam things are amazing! The buttery mildly salty pastry with the sweet jam is good. Jammie dodgers aren't as good as those in my opinion, as the jam is too chewy.
