"it doesn't taste how I remember it tasting" aye, you can thank Jamie Oliver for that one
I was literally thinking that
Jamie Oliver is a wallaper
Jaime Oliver the cabbage shagger
Hahaaaaaa 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣👍
"I can't really tell what it's made of".
Sugar, hen, and lots of it.
Lol
Hahaaaaa true story
lots and lots of condensed milk and sugar and all that jazz lol
🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂
Well if it's the haggis she's talking about, it should not have sugar in it
As an American studying abroad at Stirling, I arrived at the airport at 6am and the driver from the airport to Stirling pulls out an Irn Bru from the car consul and starts passing them around the van! Best Scottish Welcome!
I've drank irn bru once in ma life.before they changed the recipe many many moons ago..🤮🤮hate the stuff and I'm from Glasgow.
Elaine Cochrane weird
Elaine Cochrane youre a bit special pal
That’s awesome! ❤️🏴
@@kirstyhill1493 aha
Everyone there: tiny little bites
Nah mate dae it in a wonner
Aye pal
Shitebag if ye don't.
theyre proper wimps aye
nah, you bite the chocolate off then lick the mallow like its a drunk burd you picked up in the garage
Aye ats fit ya dee
The dude has a suppressed Scottish accent. I'm a native and can hear it distinctly in spots.
Asian guy sounds like he grew up in Scotland.
Yes
@Talorc MacAllan lmao, Aye
Yeah his accent is spot on
He even said “kind of funny like”
💯
I am from Scotland and it was so funny when they were trying to figure out what it is
Same when that bam said it tastes like bubblegum I got mad
They also think that we would not be offended
@@deahglanjohnston6294 what do you think iron bru tastes like then :L?
graeme clark Irn bru.
u-u
Same
Why are Americans always surprised that Irn Bru doesn't taste of any fruit? I'd love to ask them what fruit Coke tastes of?
Fruit coke?
Irn Bru is orange in color. The first time I saw one, I assumed it would taste like a Fanta or something. It didn't, but I definitely wanted to don a kilt and cleve something in two with a broad sword. Must be all the sugar.
I probably some fruit over they're
I like when their brains explode trying to compare it to something they know.
Because an orange coloured drink usually suggests it’ll be orange in flavour.
Mate half ae them were like tf is that I’m sitting here like I want wan now
LMFAOO AYE
Yeah I wanted a tea cakes so badly specially if it frozen mmhh😋
I want some irn bru so much-
I know mate like ma mum makes a mean shortbread and tablet.
Canadian person:" it smells kind of like a medicine"
Me: yes it is the only thing along with a fry up you need to get rid of a hangover
When I worked in a shop in the Highlands, an American couple asked me what typically Scottish things they should try, and of course Irn Bru was on the list. When they asked me what it tasted of I replied "orange" and they seemed a little disappointed, until I said "No, it tastes like the colour orange, not the fruit".
The guy with the Nike hat sounds sooo Scottish.
he went to high school here so i guess he picked up the accent then
The little Asian guy sounds like one of us! 🤣 brilliant.
Little?
Ano right lol
One of us... One of us... One of us... One of us...
Speaking as a Scot who has lived in the US for over ten years... The amount of self control it took to stop kicking my monitor is immeasurable. Especially when I remember some of the... food... here.
DIP YE SHORTBREED IN DI IRN BRU MATE
Aye
This reminds me of an anecdote. My friend Phil was teaching English in Japan (he's settled down there now) and he was listening in on a lesson by another instructor who was from Glasgow. He was trying to explain to the students that he had a passion for toffee and that he wanted to learn from the masters about the tradition way of making toffee, so he could go back home and open a Japanese-style toffee shop in Glasgow.
My friend's reaction was "that's strange. I didn't realise that Japan was known for it's toffee. If anything, I assumed it was a Scottish thing". He eventually figured out that the guy was talking about tofu.
🤣
Always good hearing some of the words they say sound Scottish
When they said Irn Bru tasted like bubblegum I nearly passed out
To me at first it was kind of same bubble gum
Have u heard of Robert burns day it’s a national Scottish celebration it’s called haggis neeps and tatties what we eat there
Yeah I'm from probably the most well known place for rabbie burns like we have a whole festival! It's the best.
I have em on St Andrew's Day aswell
Students across Scotland are suffering right now, especially international visitors.
I hope this brings a little bit of joy, things will slowly improve, be patient.
Thanks for being part of us, you make Scotland who we are.
Nicola will do here best.. .. loved this, thanks.
Good question
I'm guessing they still aren't over the fact irn bru recipee changed to have less sugar. My heart goes out to them.
I'm from scotland and it was funny when they try to figure out what irun bru is lol it's the best
good on you for trying everthing not everything was to your taste we knew that but was funny trying haggis your faces were a picture hope you do more scottish foods btw tablet is just sugar hahahahahahhaaha
@Alien Dewd yep made tablet on an industrial level sugar milk butter that's about it
Would be nice to see these sorts of videos showcasing actual Scottish produce and dishes, like shellfish, rabbit stew, venison, Cullen skink, pies and pasties, arbroath smokies etc
Instead of the same old boring click-pieces about snacks, haggis and/or fried food.
Really does Scottish cuisine a disservice.
ach weel ma boab ye cannae blame the burds
Vipassana Jock well it was good for snacky items, ngl, but for like actual scottish meals/foods, yeh it was pish lol. Still though I’m pretty ok with the items they chose, and no one was overly disrespectful either which was nice to see :)
Rebel Mixes Are you talking about my list? Coz my list is most certainly not tourist food. It’s standard - some of it more regional but so what. I’m from Scotland. Ate the stuff I listed all the time. Home cooked often, too.
Rebel Mixes and I’m saying you’re wrong. Everyone I know eats shellfish. My grandmother and mother cooked rabbit stew. I did too. Venison is widely eaten around Scotland. Cullen skink was cooked in my family, and available widely in restaurants. Pies and pasties are fucking everywhere ! Can’t count the number of times with friends, or when I was a kid, going into the butchers and buying pies etc. Arbroath smokies are a regional specialty sure, but people eat them - not just tourists. I say this with no judgment, but the only reason I can imagine you would never have eaten these things in restaurants or at home is that you come from a working class family in a city like Edinburgh, or more likely Glasgow or Aberdeen. I can literally remember my mum’s weekly dinner rotations, and going to pie shops/greggs, the butchers etc. just coz you didn’t eat that stuff doesn’t mean it’s for tourists. What a mental thing to say. That’s like saying sushi is for tourists in Japan, just because Japanese people don’t eat it every day. It’s not for tourists- it’s japanese food. Go look at a cookbook for Scottish recipes. Or go eat at a Scottish restaurant or pub (where, big surprise? Scottish people go to relax eat and drink). I live in the US now and I miss cock-a-leekee soup, Scotch broth, clootie dumpling, black pudding, tattie scones, skink and similar smoked fish soups, fucking smoked fish itself! ( Scottish and eaten by a ton of scots!), good porridge, affordable venison steak and stew, affordable shellfish, langoustine etc, kedigeree. Store/butcher bought and homemade pies... I can keep going. All made by my mum, or other family members, then me when I left home( and still now in the US with some dishes when I can, like soups, stews, pies, mince and tatties, stovies....). Next you’ll be telling me whisky is just for tourists! Or gin!
Rebel Mixes Ok that’s fine if you think that way but you’re just wrong. You just are. Also why does me living somewhere else right now mean my experience of life in Scotland isn’t valid? That’s stupid. Born there, all my family on both sides Scottish, spent first 29 years of my life in Scotland. Edinburgh and Glasgow mostly. Family up the east coast and the western isles.
You’re talking total shite.
It’s not tourist food.
The recipes, dishes and ingredients have historically been eaten in Scotland for a long fuckin time, and are still eaten all the time. In fact there has been a revival on Scottish cuisine and food for about 10 years now.
And wtf you on about “pubs”?! Lol. Having been to many homes in Scotland and eaten many of the things I’ve listed, and having travelled around Scotland and bought food and eaten at restaurants across Scotland, I can tell you you are plain wrong.
Nice video, everyone was very polite, good to see.
Irn bru is THEE hangover cure
You missed out some of the best! Scotch pies, Forfar Bridies and Stovies!
Stovies are the best
Oh I am salivating at the thought of a scotch pie, nice peppery one with a few baked beans . Yum
b a n a n a m i l k stovies yessssss
Mutton pies YUM!
Where is the BOVRIL!?
The Tunnock's Caramel Wafer and Caramel Log bars are incredibly popular in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada! A best seller in our confectionery shops, for sure!
I’ve tried it all too! Love it All! Then I live it….I’m Scottish !!! 🏴🙏❤️👏👍✌️😉
I had to laugh when I saw the tablet 😂😂 Jimmy I can hear a wee scottish twang coming through. Good lad ☺️
So many accents with a Scottish twang, I miss my grandma,
my favourite memory was Sunday fireplace tea, Roasting anything we could put on a toasting fork with proper butter, jams, ham and cheeses.
In Northern Ireland one of the Ulster-Scots baking tradition is Brittle Fudge. Often stored in a Biscuit Tin.
At Christmas, Fudge or Short bread is offered as a treat.
I was having such a good laugh and how honest they were it’s was great 👍
Every Scottish person YOU BETTER LIKE IRON BRU !!!!!😤😤😤
Mare like, ITS SPELT IRN BRU 😎
I love the he says 'Scotland' it sounds scottish! I enjoyed that video!
Tea cakes and Caramel Wafers in Grandmas cupboard..
Just me?
Thanks for trying our food guys!
Loved this.
I want to visit Scotland one day and the foods I want to try is of course Haggis, Roast Aberdeen Angus beef and Scottish Smoked salmon. And (probably asking too much) try the following Scotch Whiskey's Glenfarclas, Glendronach & Macallan while enjoying the view from Lock Ness.
Sounds nice, hope you get the chance!
"Haggis and chips". Classic Scottish school dinner!😄😄😄
Thank you to the posters Scotland loves you!
Scottish tablet and irn bru. Best gifts we invented to the world👍
Asian guy deck has a wee twang, welcome back jimmy! We missed yeh!
*defo
haggis is made of almost every part of a sheep lol
_lbil_ Naw it’s no.....
naw it;s no
naw its no…
to be more accurate it’s made from the sheep’s heart, liver and lungs :)
I am in Glasgow and I love Scottish food especially Haggis
You need to try a pizza supper, I've had them in Leith. It's the cheapest basic pizza folded in half, (cheese side in). Then deep fried and served with chips found on the menu in Scottish fish and chip shops.
Tunnock's Carmel wafer. Greatest biscuit ever!!
Every day a Carmel wafer. But for a treat a Carmel log but they are messy as f**k
The two lassies thought everything was caramel
How long has jimmy been in scotland ? He sounds more scottish than me.
The German girl with the glasses and striped top speaks amazing English
Loved this!!!
Tunnocks RULES! I run the tea club at work and always stock them for St Andrew's day. Try a square sausage too. Now do Irish snacks, Emerald Caramels, Club Orange etc
enjoy
As a Scot I really appreciate that they had subtitles. I wouldn't have understood otherwise. #Saracasm
I am English and I love haggis and most of the Scottish sweets
A major chain grocery store here in Canada sells Irn Bru. I've been tempted to give it a try, but have yet to do so for some reason.
What are you waiting for?! It’s amazing and great for when you’ve got a hangover!
It's really not weird or unpleasant; it's got its own flavour, but it's just a soft drink. There's also a couple of sugar-free versions; diet Irn Bru is like diet Coke - doesn't taste much like regular Coke. Irn Bru Xtra, however, is also sugar free but tastes almost identical to the full-sugar version.
@@DrOneOneOne and we got Irn Bru 1901 and also Irn Bru Energy. Not gonna lying Irn Bru Energy taste is delicious than Red Bull energy.
In America we have a lovely shortbread called “Lorna Doon”
It is pure heaven!
“It tastes a lot like caramel”
It literally says on the wrapper CARAMEL!!!!!!
aww thats really missin fae this is a cup ae tea
Tea cakes are absolutely DELICIOUS the marshmallow is delicious
great video
Really sad they never got to experience a deep fried pizza.
Yes or just a deep fried anything, you can get it all here although i've never seen a deep fried mars bar in person sooo 🤔.
Sliced (square) sausage. Morning roll. Plain bread. Red pudding. White pudding. Scottish black pudding... All specifically Scottish. Try them.
Love peoples reaction to haggis yet they will never question eating🐥 McDonalds chicken mcnuggets mainly consisting of chicken beaks and feet.!!.🙈😄
It's just how our minds work. We hear what it's made of and assume it will taste awful. Out minds don't like the thought of eating organs. I'm not Scottish but I actually really enjoyed haggis. I also love shortbread and irn bru
They need to try red cola. I'm pretty sure it's a scottish thing as in my school loads of people drink it. That, irn bru and emerge of course.
Haggis is off the scale. Love it
In Scotland pure sugar is classed as a “food”
You're english and you could'nt make a better put down comment. Newb
OMG I need some Bru 4 my hangover! 🙏
I'm Scottish, and this is just hilarious, you wouldnae think that this is weird for them because you have these on a weekly basis.
True
Damn the food is so sweet to the point, me who is watching this video, can taste the sweetness through the screen
Shortbread & Irn Bru, the perfect combination.
And hangover cure.
Holly hell mate if saw someone dipin shortbread in tea I'd call the polis
I'm so addicted to tablet ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aye same
My granny used to say it was worse than drink.
this is so amusing to me
A Scottish snacks tasting session and then salads for the next year
Girl:They are so sweet
Teacakes are the un sweetest thing in Scotland
there's a traditional dish in Palestine called Karshat known an haggis in Scotland
I was raised in Hong Kong but was born and currently live in Scotland
A few o them have a bit of a Scottish accent, it’s quite nice!
what about black pudding or stovies? I suppose black pudding is more English but besides the point lol
white pudding is scottish i think, that would be good
or neeps and tatties
@@TYNEPUNK In Morayshire we call it mealy pudding, because it's made from oatmeal, onions and seasoning. We have mealy pudding as a side dish with steak pie and tatties.
Black pudding is Scottish
@@davidmacgregor5193 Thats how I remember it from reading the Broons
The irn bru probably didn’t taste the same as it did the first time you tried it because ‘Barr’ the company who makes it, changed the recipe due to the sugar tax here x
There’s different types of Irn-Bru I’ve got more than the Irn-Bru at 2022 Irn-Bru then the Irn-Bru you have right now is the modern day Irn-Bru but there is some Irn-Bru which is like remade to come because back in the day it was like to sugary so that a take off the market but they bring it back
Where's the deep fried mars bar, or was that a north east England thing.
I remember as a kid the chippy owner frying them for free if you brought your own bar, some charged 5p.
I can remember deep fried chomps😂
Heck its like a `smore` - that there marshmallow. Who`d have thought it, eh ? Does the lass mean that its like, `I`d like ( some ) s`more ?`
All adds to the beauty of the infinite complexities of EngeirenAmriWelsglish.
I am Scottish and I have the same reaction as the girl with the red top - I find it too sweet, when I eat it I make the same facial expressions lol.
i had no idea the first one was scottish I have them in england all the time their my favourite
Irn bru originally was made in falkirk.
The Asian lads accent is so Scottish. He even says Scotland correctly.
We have these as well in middle east I forgot it's name in arabic but they are amazing we get it all the time and finish a pack in 3 days lol.
I was talking about the tea cakes
The way the eat those tunnocks tea cakes rips ma knitten
In Germany we have Heidesand which is pretty much identical to shortbread, the only difference is when making Heidesand we melt and brown the butter. Haggis is pretty much the same as Grützwurst (Pinkel in Bremen) only made from a different animal.
Nah Grützwurst has regional variants but haggis is considered a different thing even tho it has some similarities. It's like saying it's the same as Pfälzer Saumagen, it's not lol.
@@nameisbad Whatever you wrote does not in any way change the fact that haggis is a type of Grützwurst.
@@gustavmeyrink_2.0 I mean even wikipedia disagrees with you.
@@nameisbad I didn't know that you have your own version of wikipedia that fits your erroneous assumptions.
From the wikipedia I and everybody else uses says this about haggis:
"In Deutschland gibt es mit dem nordhessischen Weckewerk, dem Pfälzer Saumagen, dem niedersächsischen Calenberger Pfannenschlag, dem Bremer Knipp, der westfälischen Stippgrütze ähnliche, ursprünglich für die bäuerliche Schlachtresteverwertung gedachte Rezepturen. In Rumänien wird das als Drob bekannte Gericht vor allem zu Ostern hergestellt."
Personally I would add Pinkel to that list which is made to practically the same recipe as haggis except they use pork and smoke it.
@@gustavmeyrink_2.0 man learn to read and remember what I said in context.
Like legit what's with you, you still pissed we kicked your ass back when you guys put people in ovens?
Stfu.
I'm german and I make shortbread at home with original recipe from scotland
The chap from Hong Kong had an awesome Scottish accent. It doesn’t take long to assimilate into Scotland. Hope you pick up some phrases like “am no goin tae see the professor, his baws at aww mince”
"his baws at aww mince"?
@@Derek-qu8qi “he doesn’t make sense” or “he talks rubbish”
Well he has a Scottish accent because he went to secondary school here, as he said.
Should've tried the Irn Bru out of a glass!!
the lasise in red never even tried the haggis n she has no clue about what it even is, haggis tastEs awsome
Right that's it, time you lot had more than a couple of biscuits. How about mince n tatties? Ham hock lentil soup. Stovies! Wisnae even a black pudding or a square sausage in sight. I'll jump over with my pasting table and put a spread on for them.
My guy said “I don’t know if it’s rice”😂😂
Since when does a wafer taste like rice😂😂
What about the macaroon bar?
I've always wanted to try haggis, but it's not sold in the States.
I thought the restrictions had been lifted....🤔
Nae Square slice???
Irn Bru is made from girders!
Well it used to be, sadly the dentists are having their way and less sugar.
Oh and you say Slainte! Nae cheers
