I feel like most Americans are just thinking "This is basically mexican candy"
👍
The best stuff out there.
The Americans probably never herd of some of these snacks lmao but us Mexican bin knew🧎🏻♂️
Texas is basically Mexico who at the same time think they are their own country
mexican children's candy
@@josiah1218
Facts. Lolo
"Irish People Try Texas Candy" then they proceed to eat candy from Mexico
Cheap recreations of mexican candy
@@JoeyPlaysGuitarJasso exactly
yeah.... The watermellon candy is terrible and not from Texas at all.
@@kerryh8er04 it’s not from texas but it is popular there especially in El Paso I grew up on all the snacks they were trying
This.
"Weird licorice taste"
Ah yes, that'd be tamarind 😂
I've only ever seen someone eat the chamoy straight from the bottle in between licks of the lollipop, this was almost like watching someone eat mustard by itself. Ah childhood memories.
the fact that lollipop broke ciara is impressive in its own right
These and chilli-coated mango lollipops get much much better as the coating wears off (hack: heavily rinse them to get rid of 3/4 of the spice).
Coming from a woman that chased down several shots of absinthe, it's a astounding feat!
As someone who grew up with them, i understand. The chilli mix is very strong, bitter and salty. Though as someone stated above, if you get past it, the watermelon candy is very good!
The watermelon and mango ones where my treat during chemo. Love them! 😂
that Ciara actively disliked that lollipop is impressive. May have to get some to leave in a certain break room. (evil laughter)
As a Hispanic in Texas, those are candies from Mexico mostly. They’re made at a San Antonio business, but that doesn’t mean they’re “Texas” flavored. That company doesn’t make the best candy either. They use cheap dye that also severely dyes your teeth colors and upsets your stomach.
That's right! In Mexico they love chamoy!
Yup native Texan here, all but the shoestring potatoes are Mexican stuff, popular in the immigrant community. Of course a lot of Texas lke a lot of it too, and there are far better ones they could have chosen.. As well a lot of these are simply made to eat while downing lots of cheap beer.
@@KillerNetDog I was waiting for them to pull out some weird jerky from Buc-ee’s honestly
@@psionicjinx same, but not gonna lie, those candies took me back to my damn childhood, growing up in south texas that shit was everywhere, classmates and all selling it.
@@agoddamnferret I used to eat Lucas when I was growing up and my mother hates it. My husband despises chamoy since the first time he tasted it. He said it’s “every flavor” which it’s supposed to be.
The chamoy is supposed to be put onto something. The one lady mentioned fruit and that's generally what you put it on. It's absolutely delicious when used sparingly on top of something else.
You're not supposed to just squirt it in your mouth.
The kids here drown gummy bearsin chaamoy. Looks like a gumy bear masscre
really? I have been shooting the stuff straight into my mouth for years I cant get enough of it..well I cant eat it anymore cus im too old for that junk but you know how it is. my favorite was the little plastic pouches we would get with the tamarind paste in it, with the raw seeds and everything... mmm so good
@@chilli-iceolive-abode2447 shit is like 99% sugar man... you can handle lots of sugar as a kid, but as an adult it will destroy you
@@chilli-iceolive-abode2447 well here is your warning my guy... it WILL catch up with you unless you keep moving around enough to stay ahead of it, know what im saying?
@@chilli-iceolive-abode2447 dont take the chance, imo. Im fortunate my health insurance is really good so I get bloodwork done every 6 months to see where im at. i mean i knew there was some stuff going on just based on the way I felt, but having it spelt out to me in no uncertain terms was quite the motivator for me.. dont wish to go out the same way my dad did, with diabetes and cancer :/
The lolli was Ciara's kryptonite and I can't stop laughing. 😂 It made her lose her mind to be saying "I bet you could use this like a really nice cream blush" with the chamoy.
As a Texan I'd consider half of those Mexican candies and the other half never heard of them. LOL
That was my thought. The lollipop and Chamoy are from Mexico.
As an Irish person living in Northern coastal California I haven't a clue.
However I don't fancy most candy.
Lol as A Mexican I agree that Half of those ‘Mexican’ candies were Mexican and the other half of ‘Mexican’ were the knockoff adaptations for tourists 😂😂😂 totally agree though!
For sure mostly Mexican candy
I've seen some of these candies in the ethnic section of the grocery store. I live in Colorado.
Jamie yelling while squirting liquid candy into his mouth followed by "I have made a massive mistake." Was comedy gold. Fair play to you Jamie for being a good sport.
Jamie to CallyAnn, "Welcome aboard!" I'm rolling!
That bloodhound Jamie had this one sniffed out. And poor CallyAnn discovered the occupation hazard that comes with being a Tryer. So I want to know: Chili-Watermelon lollipops vs. Sour Pickle Balls, which is worse?
WHEN THE LOLLIPOP CAME OUT I CACKLED. I know their pain but it's also one of my favorites now lol
cant wait for Texans try Irish candy. all it's going to be is warm guiness
Boiled potato
Wow that's not offensive at all
@@gothgirlgaming9050 I didn't think so
being from Texas, I can tell you that while yes there is a huge Mexican presence here in Texas, the candy you were trying is considered Mexican candy. Not Texas candy. I live in Southern Texas. By Corpus Christi and even south of Waco this is not considered Texas candy.
Texas actually used to be mexico lol. It is legit "tejas" candy.
@@nullakjg767 so was Arizona, California, Nevada & Oregon. If a state stated those lollipops as their - it would be corrected
I mean, I’m from Houston, and I’m kind of torn. Like yes, this IS Texas candy south of Waco but Texas has some legit good authentic candy. Ever had a Chico Stick or a Pecan Log?
Yeah it is Mexican candy but some us Texans have adopted it. Lol!
@@tvloover80 Yeah and id say the same thing when they show chamoy products from arizona, nevada, california and oregon. There are people out there who think cities like "las vegas" and "los angeles" are not primarily mexican cities despite literally being in spanish. I mean creating las vegas was literally paid for by the mexican government. Its a mexican city.
"Transshipped from Mexico via Texas". It's like calling Lucky Charms "Irish"
“Hearts stars horseshoes, clovers and blue moons, pots of gold and rainbows, and me red balloons”
are you saying Lucky Charms aren't Irish? OMG!
They're after me lucky charms!
Mexican candy not Texas candy
I found the nazi!
You know how I know sgt? Because no rational person would ever use the word "transshiped" in conversation, because you thought it was so important to make sure everyone knows texans don't only eat chamoy candy(we knew), and because you're obviously a racist.
Sincerely,
South Texas
Ciara is the most open minded person I’ve ever seen!!! Thank you do not change
I was born in San Antonio Texas and raised there, most of these candies are made in San Antonio. For those Texans saying they never heard of it, that's crazy! Grew up on these, and they are delicious. I vividly remember everybody in school casually eating these in class. As I'm older they now make snow cones with these, chamoy is put on a rim of a beer with chili lime powder (the same stuff on the watermelon lolipop) it's so good.
you may have had these in San Antonio, basically Northern Mexico, but the rest of Texas, including two major US cities have never seen, heard of, or tasted this stuff. So, please don't talk for the rest of Texas. Respectfully yours, Texas.
@@baldwinpatrickjon9301 respectfully I’ve lived in Galveston, Austin, Dallas, Houston, Abilene, etc. I’m able to find these kinds of shops and style of candy everywhere all around Texas. I currently live in Austin and they usually ask “Salt and lime or Chamoy and Tajin?” for your beer. There’s a snow cone place next to my house that has maganadas with all kinds of Mexican candies and it’s always super busy. I think you may just live in a less Mexican influenced city. I have Mexican family and friends all around me. Texas use to be Mexico and there is a huge Hispanic population here especially now with immigration being so lax. Saying Mexican influenced candy isn’t Texan is just wrong.
@@savannahogrady I stand corrected. I still think they're crap. Respectfully.
Honestly, they weren't all that bad 🙈 (they kinda were) The pickle was definitely my favourite 😋
We need you to try some Kool-aid pickles. Those are a delicacy in the American South.
I lived in TX for 30 years and I honestly don't think I've ever seen any of the snacks in this video! Maybe they're sold in some other part of Texas than where I lived, it is an entirely too large state after all.
@Ciara Name your top five fave Primus songs and go!
Well, just grab yourself a can of Pork Soda
You'll be feeling just fine. . . .
We use chamoy as a drizzle on fresh fruit and sweet coconut... with lime juice and taijin. Never had it as a standalone thing.
Mexican's out here screaming "put the chamoy on some mango!!!!"
Or watermelon. Or lemon. Or cucumber. Fuck it... any fresh fruit.
even this white buy is yelling it
That's what I said lol
especially if the mango is slightly overripe.
This IS from the same production crew who gave them Taco Bell and no sauce packets, and nowhere near enough syrup for their IHOP. It's like they ran into Migalitos, bought a bunch of stuff, and didn't bother to ask for serving suggestions.
Born and raised in texas. Most of these are not Texan, they are mex-tex snacks which is Mexican snacks sold in the Texan area. A lot of the snacks in the video here are loved by the Hispanic community here.
So far everything they are showing Mexican treats. I love all of these treats
Ciara is always so positive to everyone, she’s like everyone’s personal life coach. And on a related note, any episode that pairs Dermot and Ciara gets a Like from me.👍👍
Dermot + anyone is good, and Ciara needs her own television show about travel and drink, but the two of them = instant win.
Just when you thought Ciara couldn’t be any cooler. She shows up in a Primus shirt. Respect lol Her taste in music just doesn’t get enough appreciation.
A food tasting video and she's wearing a Pork Soda T--shirt, seems perfect.
need a "love" button for this!
Primus sucks!
I was thinking the same thing!
I grew up in Southern California and it was the norm as children for us to eat candies with ingredients like chili powder and tamarind. It wasn’t just kids from only one culture who ate it. My favorites are Pico Pico, Tico Tico and saladitos. I usually eat my pineapple, watermelon, fresh coconut with lemon juice and chili powder. Spicy candy is very much a thing.
Also speaking of potatoes, Ireland is associated with them but they’re not native to Europe.
Lol lifelong Texan. Never tasted much less heard of any of these.
Same. Born and raised Texan. Even lived in different regions of Texas and I’ve never heard of these.
Same here. I feel like I’ve seen stuff like this in Mexican grocery stores but never tried it.
Same. I've lived in southeast Texas my entire life (67 years; Beaumont and now Houston) and I've never heard of any these.
Born and raised in Texas - while you can get these candies in Texas, they are not common. This is a terrible representation of Texas candy. Where's the pecan pralines and coconut candy?
I grew up here, as well, and I also thought pecan pralines were Texan by origin.. nope, they're from Belgium. I grew up eating Hershey bars, SweetTarts, Jolly Ranchers and Chik-o-Sticks.. I honestly can't think of any candy from Texas and I'm 67.
These are Latin snacks not Texan!
also divinity. these are things you find on an ice cream truck and don't represent texas candy to a texan here. :)
they did alot of mexican candy as texans candy lol its sad but funny lol
Ok, now I want pecan pralines and coconut candy, and I'm from the Pacific Northwest, lol.
“Look what it’s done to Ciara,”
Bent but never broken, that’s our Ciara.
Ciara is without a doubt my favorite, she took the alcohol challenge like an Olympic champ, she cracks me up. She took the 95.5 proof to the head was and was totally cool about it and just sat there and started glowing. Real Irish woman.
Yay!!! I love when Dermot and Ciara are together!!!
I feel this would have been more representative of Texas candy if they had just hit up a Buccee's instead.
Yes!!!
100% agreed
they don't have Buccee's in Ireland, so they can't exactly hit one up.. it's what was sent to them... go get some stuff from Buccee's and send it to them.
Went to Texas last month and stopped at 4 different Buccee’s in 24 hours. Can agree.
Fr
I was so traumatised by that pickle that I blocked it from my memory 🙃🥴
Is the dress blue and white or black and gold? At 7:20 are you saying "assault on my senses" or "salt on my sex bits"? Either response seems appropriate.
Was the pickle really that bad?
Koolaid pickles are fuckin good
Jesus christ you guys, Curb your thirst and be respectful.
After awhile I stopped counting the double-entendres you made, whether intentionally or not.
I love the watermelon (and sometimes mango and corn) lollipops. A staple for Latino communities in the US
Not a chamoy guy but my neighbors love it
I live in Mexico. The watermelon lollipops are eaten my children. They are amazing. There are Mango and Corn ones too.
I'm from Houston TX and the candies were Mexican candies. I would say the iconic Texas candy would be a pecan praline or snickers. Also salt water taffy.
I’m in Houston and they are very much so Texan. San Antonio, Austin and south tx, these are very common
@@turi319 almost everything in the video is from Mexico. The Lucas,the watermelon lollipop, the chamoy,the chilli stick.
I am from Houston. They should have tried the candy you used to get at Monterrey House-sort of caramelized condensed milk and sugar.
Just to clarify: These candies are found mostly in the southern parts of Texas. When my family lived in San Antonio, these could be found everywhere. In the northern parts (I now live in the Dallas area), they are found in specialty shops. The closer you get to Mexico, the more readily these treats are available.
You can find this all over houston.
They’re found literally everywhere that has any type of Mexican representation lol. I live in Cali and we have these candies too. We probably have a better selection of Mexican candy in the part that I live in since it’s about 98% Hispanic/latinx population due to agriculture in the area.
@Bob Watters no there Texans born and raise in Texas . Please don’t insult Texas with your ignorance
@@bananabread349 don’t use latinx , not every Latino or Latina like that stupid made up word
Yep, just go to Eagle Pass, it’s basically Piedras . Ironically Del Rio isn’t as much like Acuna. The further south down the border the more it’s like Mexico. My ranch is just Past Brackettville and it’s more like San Antonio. My wife grew up in South San Antonio and this candy is everywhere.
Ciara wearing a primus shirt makes me fall in love with her even more.
She's absolutely 1 of my favorites among them. Can hold her drink & a dry witty sense of humor. The Pork Soda shirt just reinforced this for me too lol
My mothers-in-law have a mini farm they bought before retirement. Part of my wife's mother's hobbies include gardening and canning the things they grow with various types of pickling and preserving. One of my favorites that she brings us a couple times per year is called "cowboy candy." It's basically candied jalapeños with a stout vinegar brine and several sweet herbs/peppers/onions. I know a lot of people aren't huge fans of jalapeños or things that are spicy, but there really are good. It's like having slightly spicy pickle that is doused in sugary sweetness.
Is anyone surprised that I, a life-long Texan, have never seen or heard of any of these items? Still, it is a big place, you know. And it's worth it to see Dermot and Ciara trying to convince each other to stop eating things.
I grew up in San Antonio and these are candies I grew up with at school, at home, in birthday party bags, from the ice cream man.
Same. I think the Alamo Candy Co is just a SA thing.
@@chelseat177 As I said, Texas is a big place. I've not spent much time in SA, so I'm not surprised that these are a San Antonio thing. I never saw them in Houston or Austin or San Marcos.
Lol I’m Latin and some of those are fr sure Mexican but others or pretty crappy American adaptations. Probably for the tourist and internationals. Totally agree though.
Grew up in houston texas and these have always been around me
Am I the only one that thinks Dermot looks ten years younger with the long hair?
And the shave, yes
I was thinking the same thing. But Dermot has always been my crush.
Yes.
I think it's the lack of alcohol.
@@tracyroweauthor mine too
The other 49 states have been wondering what is wrong with Texas for quite a while now.
This may be a solid clue as to why!
Thanks y'all!!!!
These are mexican candies and we really love Chamoy flavored candy in central Florida. I really love the chamoy covered mango sucker . Try tajin sprinkled over fresh fruit. Fabulous spicey candy is great .
Dont ever out tajin in a topo chico
Texas candies made in San Antonio, Texas, and beloved by many children here
"I always hope for beef" should be on a shirt.
close. old saying. beef, its whats for dinner.
Mexican candy is brutal! I got some once, and my daughter wanted to try it, and I warned her that it was too hot. She said I was exaggerating. She tasted it and immediately ran for the sink to rinse her mouth with cold water!
I lived in Texas for 18 years and can honestly say, I never saw any of those items....and I am grateful.
If Ciara and Dermot didn't have that barrier between them I'm damn sure that Ciara would have pushed Dermot off his chair for antagonizing her.
She likes to do that - by her own admission.
There needs to be a super cut of Ciara interacting with Dermot
Yes, I absolutely agree
The plastic is only on the table :p
@@Berry-tan_Ichi Agreed!
Being a Texas native I’m slightly offended 😂
Offended by the reactions or offended by the Alamo Candy Company's offerings? :)
As a fellow Texan, I'm ashamed that's the best the Alamo Candy Company had to offer.
That they think were wearing cowboy hats and eating crap candy i feel ya
Well that’s not the only brand that offers chamoy candy. People also have to understand the Spanish culture that Texas has. Now as far as the pickles, y’all should try the kool-aid pickles! But loved the video!
@@Veronica.1371 they actually have better candy than the ones in the video. I don’t think the Irish people would have liked it though
With exception of the first one, I grew up with these candies living here in Texas. They’re popular with the Hispanic community. These candies are also sold over the border in Mexico.
exactly every kid in San Antonio loves this stuff
Jaime had me 😂🤣 with the Watermelon lollipop. "Fuckin from the Devil" " I'm bitten it, I'm going in" then he regrets it.😳😂😂🤣🤣
As a native Texan, I've never even heard of most of these. If someone sent y'all a box of Mexican candy, they didn't do Mexico justice, because there are some absolutely delicious Mexican confections. The batch y'all had were like bad gas station candy you might come across in South Texas.
Someone needs to fix you a fresh batch of sopapillas to make up for what they inflicted on you.
Agree with everything, but add a bit of pecan glaze to dip the sopapillas into.
This makes me think of the tourist traps along route 66.
Agreed
Well, Texans were always outright bonkers, stands to reason that their candy would be bad.
Spoonful of lava
Ciara
"Its not too bad it's a building heat"
Straight face throughout
😂😂
The lollipops are great if you can get past the outer coating of the chili powder. You could just run it under water and then you’ll have a slightly spicy watermelon sucker. The chili powder coating is on the outside but the sucker itself is like a regular lollipop with a bit of heat. I always take a drink of water before I put one of these in my mouth, so it doesn’t taste like powdery coating. I love them
"The first time I put this in my mouth it was so shocking, but.." XD 6:26.
That primus tshirt. Golden!!
Primus sucks🎸
1. I'm guessing the watermelon lollipop is meant to be like watermelon with Tajin on it?
2. Chamoy is a sweet and sour sauce made from pickled fruit. And yes, Grainne, it is great over fruit!
3. Lucas is a Mexican candy company. And the chili straws are likewise a pretty common Mexican treat.
Yes, you were correct in all of these. That lollipop is actually a Mexican Candy but you know...
I have never wanted one of those watermelon pops so bad as I do right now, I think im going to order them off amazon.... with some lucas
I've lived in Texas my whole life and have never seen any of the things you tried. The spices tell me they are probably Tex-Mex and their construction leans heavily that they are more novelty or gimmick souvenirs.
If you want true historically accurate, traditional Texas candy, you have to go to Fredericksburg. There, you will find old European craft handed down from generations of not just candy making, but the largest selection of locally crafted wines of remarkable flavors you've never considered. But the most favorite candy, is actually called a pie and once you have a correctly made PECAN PIE, you'll never want anything else for the rest of your life; it truly is the most incredible confectionery ever devised.
Like your shows a lot. Your raw honesty is what makes it an interesting curiosity.
jamie and Cally losing it over the lollipop had me rolling xD
Chamoy: "Look at me, look at me---I'M the Durian fruit, now!"
I like how the twelve minute video hasn’t even been up two minutes and someone already dislikes it. Give it a chance,guys!!! Dermot is back,damnit!!!
I think there are some folks that dislike them just because they thing it's cool to do so.
@@GrumpyOldBastard "Ugh...they have more than nine subscribers and aren't even playing Minecraft. Dislike."
When I think of "Texas" candy, I think of sweet chili Mexican candy, Buc-ee's beaver nuggets, and Susie South 40's toffee.
8:37 LOL hardest I've laughed all year at TRY
That lollipop BROKE ME! Who enjoys them?!
I imagine if you had them as a child, there would be a nostalgia thing.
@@mediocrates5233 never mind nostalgia, they just taste good. it isnt a flavor people expect and maybe its difficult to wrap your head around if tasting dried spices and chamoy isnt the norm for you, but dont dismiss it as a nostalgia thing. the outer coating also isnt meant to be enjoyed in a vacuum, noone here even got to the watermelon, except the people that made the mistake of trying to eat the whole sucker at once. it emulates the classic flavor of pico de gallo/chamoy on fresh fruit, its a combination flavor.
Chamoy is a condiment from Mexico that is typically served as a dip for fresh fruit. It is made with fruit, such as apricot, mango or plum, chilies and lime juice and is bottled and sold in varying degrees of spiciness.
Most things from Texas are Mexican
6:44 looks just like the "It's always sunny in Philadelphia" leaprocon sketch!
Chiara being so creative! I love it! Dermot follows. Awesome!
"I wanna put [Lucas Gusano] on a fruit"
Texan here. Highly suggested, especially on mango. We love Mango and Chamoy together.
Or watermelon. Or lemon. Or cucumber. Fuck it... any fresh fruit. And it's not just in Texas... Southern California does this too. We have chamoyadas that are frozen fruit slushies with chamoy and tamarind.
@@Salsuero oh, I've seen videos of that; looking like beautiful pieces of art, too
@@antikirai959 Tasting like beautiful dreams of fruit and hopefully the right amount of spicy to kick it up a level. And I hate most things spicy.
Mexican here. Do as the Texan says.
i feel the same about the alamo as i do chamoy.
its a tragedy and we will have revenge.
I wonder what you guys would do if presented with a Kool-Aid pickle.
Or pickled watermelon rind? Lol.
From the thumbnail, I swore that's what it was.
@@evajung666 Or boiled peanuts *shudder*
They did that years ago
ua-cam.com/video/YdJm1U-8Avg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Facts.
They really need to try Kool-aid pickles!
Ciara is a real trooper,she just dives into the challenge at hand
Always fun to watch. Great video
This should be called "Irish people try San Antonio candy." A lot or all of those are from the alamo candy company from San Antonio. I grew up there and we all practically bled chamoy.
Very different from the central/northern part of the state.
Yeah I'm from Austin and can't recall ever seeing Alamo Candy Co before it started showing up in a few Try videos.
Ok, question. What in the world is chamoy??
@@eugenelim1436 like a sauce or paste made from pickled mango spiced with chiles. It's BANANAS when you first try it but pretty addictive after you get used to it.
@@ashleighmaugh9886 No it isn’t, and I’m San Antonio born and raised! I hate chamoy!
@@Jenny010132 your opinion is valid. I hate water chestnuts.
👍🏻
I think A LOT of Mexican candies & even Takis go well with beer. They should've had a beer to go with it
These are Mexican candies. I was born and raised in Texas, these are not “Texas candies”. They might be from Texas, but they’re Mexican candy that happened to be made in Texas.
Accurate.
No they are texas candies eaten by children in San Antonio, texas and the surrounding areas.
@@auntievenom1 One package said "heco in Mexico." lol
@@Sam-xr8ne do you mean hecho 😂
I Love Jamie's giggle. Makes me so happy.
Ciara's shirt makes me want to put in a big dip of Copenhaggen, change my name to Jimmy, go drive a racecar and proudly declare my name is Mud. Love it!
Nice one Les
Primus Sucks!
...and shake hands with beef
I agree with Mr. Krinkle here.
Those Watermelon pops are no joke. That spice they put on will cut your tongue. They're amazing though. Also come in Mango and Corn flavor lol
Yes! The mango is my fav! And I do wish they knew that Chamoy works better as a "topping". I think that's why they reluctantly liked the pickle more than the other stuff.
Love them all!
Yeah, I've had the mango ones, and I really enjoyed them! If you're not used to these types of candies, though, I can imagine they're a little disconcerting. lol
Lol true 😂😂😂 but I think they got all the knockoff brands from someone because my watermelon candies didn’t look like those 😂😂
Don't forget pineapple flavor as well. Soo good. I know they have ones that have the chili swirled in instead of top. But they are really good.
“Oh, that’s so good, is it me?”
“Sure, why not”
“Beautiful”
😂😂😂
"This pickle is SCRUMPTIOUS!"
I have never seen anyone so excited about pickles before and I love it.
Callyann reactions are always funny. She is my favorite when I am not having a good day.
"It's floppier than I expected." Sigh...yeah, that is indeed what she said.
These are found all over California! Had these as a kid all the time. They're Mexican candies! 🤣🤣🤣
My mom always had those lollipops as a child, they were my favorite. Still are, when I think about these it makes me cry. I love my mom so much
For some unknown reason, the ladies are much more adventurous with new flavors in their mouth.
Dermot: Beef flavored candy?
Off camera: Texas Candy!
Lloyd Christmas: So you're telling me there's a chance.
I'm a native Texan, and I havent seen half of these offerings. If it were more accurate, there would be less chamoy products, and more TAMARIND offerings, along with Jerky, too. THAT is how we roll.
And the tamarind stuff is also copied/influenced or just plain Mexican.
You must be from North Texas
@@auntievenom1 yep. Fort Worth
@@YkronRobe agreed
I'm for Texas and we grew up with that stuff. I actually have a bag of the watermelon plus mango candy in my cupboard. You have to but it little by little too get the sweet and spicy flavor. Also one more thing. Try kool-aid pickles! They are the best ❤️
Grainne: "Oooo... it's cold down there!"
Me: Has she BEEN to Texas? It stay over 100F into October sometimes!
As a lifelong Texan of Irish lineage, I love this. We get the Pik Nik potatoes all the time.
Those where all Mexican snacks, however y’all should make some Oklahoma Kool-aid pickles for them to try LMAO!
kool-licles
Just when you thought Ciara couldn't get any cooler, she sports a Primus "Pork Soda" t-shirt. "You Suck!"
Callyann💖🙌🙌🙌🙌 with Jamie even... LOVE IT
Chamoy sounds like a Russian word of confirmation.
Igor: Boris! Did you locate the turnip Baba wanted for soup?
Boris: Chamoy! 🐻🍲
as an Irish-Alaskan living in Texas (looooong story, alcohol and the Army were involved) I can attest that there are plenty of actual real Texas candy (both from Texas and actually candy), and we're going to try to get some sent to you to try :)
I recently had a friend send me up some buc-ee's beaver nuggets cause I saw it on another channel and was intrigued. Tasty binge eaty things really! What else do you like?
@@AoiLucine If you're in Texas, it's pretty much a law that if you pass bucees, you have to go in!!XD
@@AoiLucine Pecan pralines are so good! Our pecans are some of the best!
These candies are Texan. They are made in San Antonio, Texas and very popular here. You must live in North Texas
Wearing a pork soda shirt for a Texas candy episode what a perfect choice lol
Pork has nothing to do with Texas
I was thinking the same thing
Sure they eat a lot more beef but nobody was wearing a beef shirt so I went with what I had.
Omg she's wearing a pork soda shirt. I love her.
When I saw the chili candy pop up I knew they were gonna hate it. I grew up on all of the chili candies and I still think they are the best.
I've lived in Texas all my life, and I've never seen any of these things before. Where are all the Atkinson candies? Those are actual Texas candies. Chick-O-Sticks, Peanut Butter Bars- that's my childhood there.
Agreed, nearly 35 years in Texas, never seen any of these.
i’m thinking buccee’s beaver nuggets would be worth adding to the list
Suprised there was no candied pecans 😕
Ditto … love chick-o-sticks and peanut butter bars 😁
Guess you better send your own Texas candy to Try.
"Ciara wears a primus shirt" me: Ah a woman of culture.
Primus sux.
@@FriedPi-mc5yt the try channel needs to do pork soda.
Needed this
@@FriedPi-mc5yt nice comment, hater. Primus is a lot of thinks but sucky is not one of them. Your musical taste on the other hand...
@@petepethesjr3422 You need to learn the history of Primus. Google “Primus sucks” and you’ll realize I’m more of a fan of Primus than you are. Every real Primus fan knows what “Primus Sucks” is about.
Watching people's first interaction with chili candy is great.
TEXAN here. I actually really love half of those. Childhood favorites.

Internet: 👀
And Gráinne at 6:23 😶
I came down here searching for this EXACT comment! I'll see myself out....
I live just south of San Antonio, TX and that candy is actually Mexican.
Even the one from San Antonio, huh? 🙄
My best friend lives just below SA too! lol
@@presleywilson9815 Yes. Even the one from San Antonio. We are a couple hours from Mexico so it sells here. Doesn’t matter where it’s made. Can you go to your local restaurant and get Italian food? But you aren’t in Italy.
@@had1toomany114 that’s not a direct comparison, especially since it’s debatable that that would be considered Italian food by real Italians. White people seem to think this is Mexican candy. Most of us who grew up on it do not. It’s both Mexican AND Texan. It’s like y’all forget the history of Texas. White culture isn’t the only culture in Texas just because you want it to be.
@@presleywilson9815 It’s exactly the same comparison. Also, I’ve lived in Texas my whole life. Had friends of every race. Bet you can guess which friends ate chimoy. My wife is Hispanic. Her whole family eats stuff like that. They chased down ice cream trucks for pickles with chimoy as kids. I knew very few white, black, Asian etc. kids that ate it personally. By the way, your assumption that just because I could be white means I want white culture to be the only culture in Texas makes you the racist. Over a candy no less. Grow up.
As a native Texan what you should have given them these candies to represent our Lone Star State is Snickers, Dr.Pepper, Cow tails, Buccee Beaver Nuggets, Fried Milk to represent the Mexican influence, Starburst, Skittles, and peanut butter bars. You're Welcome.
The Irish loved the 'tato, what a surprise 🤣
