- Our viewer, Richard, sent us a variety of crackers to try with cheese including Hovis, Jacob's and Bath Oliver. We found some Belton Farms cheese: Sage Derby, Port Wine Derby, and Double Gloucester with chive and onion. To add some variety we also brought out a few cream cheeses from Trader Joe's.

Butter puffs being my favourite,love them with just butter
Hi Valerie, a few people have mentioned them as a favorite! We sure liked them.
Ooh those cheeses look tasty! Yep, a little butter on the crackers would just take away any dryness. I love the wheatgerm crackers, and I'm partial to the buttery flakey ones too. My favourites are Cornish Wafers. I think Richard sent you some? The Hovis crackers shaped like loaves are like digestive biscuits. BTW digestives are great with butter and cheese too.
Have a lovely weekend Ross, Tina, Finn and everyone here! Cheers 🍻
Hi Agranda. Yes, Richard did send us Cornish Wafers and I'm pretty sure we tried digestives with butter and cheese at one point too after viewers suggested it. Happy Friday and wishing you a great weekend too!
I love those butter puffs, they go with almost anything. Every once in a while I like to spread cream cheese on them and place some smoked salmon on top
Hi Owen, neither of us is crazy about smoked salmon, but I can see that combo working well for those that do!
I love all crackers. Could live on them, haha!
Great for snacking!
Tina Ross, yoy two are amazing keep up the good work love you both xx
Thank you so much Dennis! ❤
Butter Puffs are a top tier cracker, seriously under rated, I just like them on their own with some quality butter spread quite thickly, lovely!
All of the layers are very nice, and unique. Ross still wants to try some with jam and I'm thinking cream cheese and jam!
Jamm and peanut butter xx
@@clairesmith4650 like a pb&j sandwich!
Keep looking into the middle distance mate!!
Hovis wheatgerm bit too thin to butter easily break, your cream cheese spread really nice on hovis. Sage n onion nice one to have.
The bath Oliver biscuits sold in Waitrose they more ideal thin layer butter, Jacobs choice grain good, butter puffs like hovis use cheese or spread as puffs like puff pastry can break OK if butter soft.
Loved the side dip you made yourself Tina lovely idea. Thin slice ham some chutney on butter puffs nice or even on Jacobs choice grain.
Thank you for the cracker assortment Richard. The cream cheeses went really well and lots of interesting topping ideas from the pictures on the packages too.
The Hovis Digestives are nice as well, shaped like a loaf of bread. The only problem is they are very crumbly and fall apart easily.
Yes, those are the ones we recalled trying. Thought they were crackers, but they were digestives. We had a few crumbling problems here too!
I think the distribution of the cider needs adjusting 😂
We both actually had a full can. Ross just had to refill his cup!
Hi There, I am amazed you can pick up sage derby in California but I could never find it in Derby (born & raised in Derbyshire), plenty of Stilton but no sage derby 😀. Good video again, always enjoy seeing you both. If you are able to find it Orkney cheddar is extremely good.
Hi Jeff. We don't see it consistently, but pick it up when we find it. Funny you should mention Orkney Cheddar. We have some in the fridge, but haven't tried it yet. It's another one we have just seen occasionally.
One cheese I loved but could never find it again was Stilton with lemon - so good, probably as common as muck over there lol
We see Stilton with apricots, but I don't think we've seen it with lemon before. We did try Wensleydale with honey and lemon once.
Wensleydale and cranberry xx best ever xx u would love are craft beer and cider festivals x
@@FinnLovesFood Yes -with apricots is common here but I have looked everywhere for the Lemon, no luck. If I were still in Derbyshire and not Scotland I would nip down to the creameries to try there lol.
@@jeffmarriott it does sound like a nice flavor. I think I'd prefer it to apricots.
As now being diagnosed lactose intolerant i have found some nice lactose free brie and now phillidelphia do a lactose free im glad harder the cheese less lactose in it xx
Ps cheese and marmite on crackers xx
Hi Claire. Have you tried goat cheese? I've heard it can be easier to digest for some people.
This is something we need to try!
I like hovis crackers and cheese, why didn't you put some of the relishes on with your cheese, would have been yummy, have a great weekend
Hi Michael, I'm always worried about flavors clashing when we're having flavored cheese, but I'm sure the relishes will come out as we go through the packets. Top a good Cheddar or maybe plain cream cheese. Have a good weekend!
The really plain ones with a blue oozey cheese ❤
Hi Elizabeth. Do you have a favorite blue cheese?
@FinnLovesFood Cambozola brie is ace. Or any ripe blue cheese is lovely.
Not going to be joining in with a cheese n bic eat along sadly…. 😥😥. I had a “new to me” soup flavour today - tomato based but with lots of different lentils and “bean things” in it…. Now I have had tomato n lentil and lentil on its own - but the mixed bean combo has had a very detrimental effect on my tum 🥺😪 you can guess the rest if you choose to!
When you next try going all cheesy, cut up a spring onion into tiny pieces and sprinkle it into the cream cheese - game changer! Much love and enjoy your cheesing - I know how much you love cheeeeeeeese Gromit!
We're sorry Helen. Hope you feel better.
The last cream cheese we tried had onion and chives - one of our favorites. Freshly cut spring onion sounds delicious as well.
@@FinnLovesFoodthankyou …. Feeling a bit better now, but did a recce on the mysterious three bean ingredients in my soup….it was lentil, pinto and black eyed peas….
I did a bit of research and read on a USA Web MD site that both pinto and black eyed peas are good deal “higher ” in the fibre and roughage area but can cause digestive “discomfort” because they contain something called lectin 🤷♂️ and quote “can make you have a leaky gut or become ‘gassy’ unquote 😳😳😳😖😍and obvs, I must have a weak and puerile UK bodily constitution! Needless to say, I won’t be consuming a tin of Sainsy three bean soup now or anytime in the future ever! 🥴😁
Would love to try black garlic cheese spread never get any here xx
It was new for us. Really enjoyed it.
Maybe Isle of wight holiday for you? They seem like growing black garlic in IOW some interesting combos there
Hovis loaves were my favourite type of bread, unfortunately you cannot get "real" Hovis anymore, the firm that has taken the name, do not make the original loaf. We pronounce basil (Bazzil not bayzil). 15:51
Hi Dorothy. That's too bad that Hovis has changed.
We're familiar with the basil pronunciation (as well as oregano) - they sound strange to our American ears! 🙂
i like jacob s crackers the best
We've liked all the Jacob's crackers we've tried so far.
I know you like cheese but you're going over and above when you paint your nails to match the Sage Derby! 😀
🤣I didn't even notice! But you are right!
@@FinnLovesFood It's a very pretty colour.
@@margaretnicol3423 thank you!
We call it Basil, not Basel.
BaYsil Fawlty…. Imagine Sybil calling him that…. 😂😂
Yep, the British pronunciations of 'h'erbs:
Bazzle
Orr-ee-gar-no 😊
We're aware of the different pronunciations, but they sound as strange to us as I'm sure ours do to you! 😁
Herb NOT 'erb.
And caramel not Carmel……. 😉
@@weedle30 and that's one you hear pronounced both ways in the US. 🙂Though Carmel is one of our favorite vacation spots and it's pronounced car-MEL.
Bath Olivers are quite posh! I find them too dry and boring. Butter Puffs are my favourite.
We need to find the right topping for Bath Olivers. I think something creamy to help with the dryness!
