Jateen - Biltong is preserved meat, it does not go off. The reason why biltong was not sent are because of laws preventing people sending certain foods over the world spreading diseases. However, It can be done after A SHITLOAD of legal paperwork which makes it not worthwhile for a single package.
Cheap Snacks - Can you give us the names of a few "Not so Cheap" Snacks? I'm assuming a Milo Bar costs 4 times more in Cape Town than it does in Johannesburg?
Very limited range, most of which are lower quality and price. Strange that they only sent you a bite-size Tex. South Africa really has a wide variety of snacks.
Hi Johnson Family. Yours is one of the most pleasant "taste test" videos on CZcams. None of the funny faces and condescending comments that one see in most of the "taste test" videos on CZcams. Best regards from South Africa.
Thanks. Those are international names and are pronounced differently in different countries. But is is cool to know how they are pronounced in South Africa.
Lol interesting pronunciation, we call it a "my low" bar in South Africa (the Milo), we can also get it in like a hot chocolate powder, to drink with hot milk. Cool video :)
The TeX bar is way more popular😂😂 you people are mal, you can get like 3 TeX bars for one cadbury chocolate, it appleals to everyone cus it is so much cheaper. I am south african btw
Haha that's all our cheapest snacks. I really hate some of them! Start an 'exchange' page where people can send each other snacks from their country. That would be pretty cool!
Hi guys, you look like a realy friendly family. By the way, I'm from South Afrika and just love your comments and facial expesions from every taste. You guys rock! You had but a very small sample of the wide spread of snacks from SA, but it is obviously not possible to send all the snacks in a handy little box. From my point of view (taste) I do not think you had some of our better snacks in that box, although those aren't too bad at all. To my taste, our best snack is unique to SA and is called biltong. It is made from meat (dried and spiced to taste), so not for vegaterians, but they are simply delisious. google it?? Since it is made from meat I'm not sure if it would be easy to get them into your country, but if you can, do try! However, you're welcome to visit SA and taste to your hards content.If you would ever visit, you'll find the dollar Rand exchange well in your favour, thus a tour to SA will be relitively cheap for you. Hope to see you guys over here soon. By the way, I live in the Gauteng province in the city called Centurion.....
It is basicly Jerky... but i could be wrong Not sure how Jerky is made but i heard its not made the same... Here in South Africa it piece of meat covered in spices and Air dried for a few weeks *
looking at that packet of Flings and thinking "There's probably only going to be like 2 flings in that packet at best..If you guys are lucky" 😂😂 #SouthAfricanStruggles
by watching videos like this you truly do realise that South Africa is not that bad of a country and by the way just so you know South Africa is a country not a direction
Pleased ou like our snacks, but you definitely didnt get our best. Toppers are a cheap biscuit (cookie) as is fizzers and wonderbar. You would love our snacks if you did like those.
JSMK stone cold crazy oh yeah 😁 I think Americans normally pronounce it Mylo, it's just that we live in Indonesia where it's pronounced Meelo, so that's how we pronounce it haha
I feel like the company ripped you off. Most of the mini things came in bigger sizes. The fizzers, the tennis biscuits, the tex and the milo bar for example. Good video though!!
Martin Johnson okay I understand now. Great Video and am glad you enjoyed some of our South African Snacks. Biltong and some Rusks would have have been good to try to. After this video I think I will try give this a go and get a box delivered by the company. Looks very fun.
Hey, I'm from South Africa and these are not the best we have! The Milo bar is pronounced Mye-low. Fizzers are incredible but not when melted! They're supposed to be fairly rigid. There should have been some better chips, some drinks and at least some biltong! That would've been awesome. But good video!
wow you guys sure do live up to the hype... totally rock out! 👌very accomodating feel to be able to have the chance to join in on the fun (tho coming across ur vid only just now.) also thumbs up for epic comic relief element mixed up for some good ol laugh!!!👍👍
Tex is the perfect chocolate bar. It's a cross between a Kit-Kat and an Aero. You never have to choose between those two if there's a Tex on the shelf.
Enjoyed watching this video. It's been nearly 3 years - Have you guys visited South Africa yet? Pity about the Fizzers that melted and the Tex Chocolate being so small. The Milo Chocolate bar is pronounced (My-low). You guys will definitely survive in South Africa - We have an abundance of delicious snacks, treats and AMAZING food!
Martin Johnson lol, here? most Americans haven't even heard of Milo. I've heard it pronounced mee-low in other countries, like Australia, but in South Africa it's my-low, which is where those snacks are from. ;)
The fact is in America your guys choclates are rubbish and your guys deserve better. We feed flings to babies here when they start eating solids. Creme Soda is a soft drink here in South Africa. Most of stuff you"ll received comes in regular size. Toppers come in several flavours and made by Bakers in South Africa. Pronounced My lo here comes as an instant drink, powdered form or as a choclates bar.
I love wonder bar when I can't open my mind what I want. Fizzers is also nice my kids slap it against a table to brake it. Milo bars is ok, toppers as well.
Oh well, there are Americans and South Africans who've said that there should be more cultural exchanges between the two countries. An example I'd say is with music, and an example is country music. Another is food, and an example is pumpkin recipes. South Africans generally tend to have a fascination for all things American. The two countries have also had similar histories. For instance both started as partly Dutch, and then British, colonies. Preferably no politics. It also seems like almost whatever happens in the one country also happens in the other. For instance in 1994 both moved more away from isolation and into the international community. In South Africa it was with the first democratic elections, and in the USA it was with the Soccer World Cup. (And then, South Africa moved more towards that with the 2010 Soccer World Cup.)
K well if ur wondering in south Africa its not pronounce 'melo' we pronounce it Milo like 'I' as in how you normally pronounce the y I'm my. 🤘😄 Great video tho. I was just dissapoimted as some of the things they sent you guys are very cheap and there are alot if very nice treats in south Africa that they didn't send you
Martin Johnson yes but not infant babies but toddler babies. Or we buy it when we're broke and crave a chippie. Simba potato chip is something they should have sent the bbq flavour. And the wonderbar, man that is one of the cheapest chocolates we have.
Proudly South African. Lol!! The little boy so cute when he says "Meelo" well the way he pronounced the Milo Chocolate.. it is pronounced 'My-Low'.. Tennis biscuits are delicious when it comes to using them for a dessert.. Tex chocolate my favorite of all time. Thanks for the cool video.. what a fun activity to do as a family. Really interesting.
Anyone besides me from south Africa🇿🇦
A lot of people from South Africa have commented on this video.
Me
@@MartinJohnsonOffGridLiving you should visit south africa
Me
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
No Biltong? Biltong is South Africa's trade mark treat lol
Nevermind trademark its DELICIOUS
I'm surprised they didn't send you biltong
Keegan Foster yeah biltong is better
Jateen - Biltong is preserved meat, it does not go off. The reason why biltong was not sent are because of laws preventing people sending certain foods over the world spreading diseases. However, It can be done after A SHITLOAD of legal paperwork which makes it not worthwhile for a single package.
They wanna save costs
Keegan Foster yeah biltong is the main of all snackies here!
Jhoxi Hum that and also biltong is vrek expensive so it's pricey to send...
Wow they sent all the cheap stuff 😂😂😂😂😂 sorry, you're really not getting much of a South African experience
Asher Pardey true but considering the other videos I've seen...rather this than bad made koeksisters
lol awe
And they sent all the small things. But there's so many other things that they should try
lool but why? ithought i was the only one to notice that.. they should try biltong
Asher Pardey ik righ
sending you much love from South Africa
+Simone Ventura thanks! You are very nice. And you have good snacks!
it's pronounced my-lo
+Martin Maré in which country?
Martin Johnson South Africa
Martin Johnson South Africa
Martin Johnson it's pronounced my-low
I LITERALLY TWITCHED every time they said 'mee-lo'! HAHA!
Haha. They send you the cheap snacks. We have snacks tasting alot better. - From Cape Town
Reinz I agree 😂
Reinz jip do you speek afrikaans
Mila Kruger Ek doen ja.

Cheap Snacks - Can you give us the names of a few "Not so Cheap" Snacks? I'm assuming a Milo Bar costs 4 times more in Cape Town than it does in Johannesburg?

hahahah they loved the wonder bar, no one in SA buys wonders bars
+black opps 3 hadheid Why haven't they gone out of business?
black opps 3 hadheid so true😂
The last time I ate those was like 4 years ago
I ate Wonders Bars in Primary school I think I had one this year but Wonder Bars aren't that bad, I would recommend Lunch Bars.
LOLS for days - NO ONE buys Wonderbar!
It's pronounced (My-low)
Not (Me-low)
I'm from South Africa
And it's Nestle (Nest-lay)
They literally sent you all the cheap stuff
Thanks. Those are international names and are pronounced differently in different countries. But is is cool to know how they are pronounced in South Africa.
blame it on too much sugary sweetness munchies i'd say 😫😫
Interesting...we (South Africans) also say Nes(t)-LAY, not Nes(t)-LEE.
Goose 609 oi gedra jouself!!!
Shané Lodewyks ?
Lol interesting pronunciation, we call it a "my low" bar in South Africa (the Milo), we can also get it in like a hot chocolate powder, to drink with hot milk. Cool video :)
tex is not the most popular. anything that is cadbury is the most popular
Darkart2 nope definitely not I've never even heard of that
Never heard of cadbury? Its a british chocolate company.its not my fault you dont know it lol
I agree with you. I've never even heard of the Tex
The TeX bar is way more popular😂😂 you people are mal, you can get like 3 TeX bars for one cadbury chocolate, it appleals to everyone cus it is so much cheaper.
I am south african btw
But TeX and bar one are probably equals
I think a Bar One is our favorite chocolate bar not Tex , remember you just got small mini's from every brand , the Tex bars is HUGE
they got a small bar i know you get a big tex as well as a bar one.I also say the bar one are more popular then tex by far here
Thank you
it is 1 big giant pleasure
Hi, im from South Africa, good to see other countries like our snacks!!
they are good!
Martin Johnson, you should come here some time to try out more
+MiloDiggz 17380 I would love to!
Get over the pronounciation already...glad you guys enjoyed our treats! :) -❤ from SA
:)
Haha that's all our cheapest snacks. I really hate some of them!
Start an 'exchange' page where people can send each other snacks from their country. That would be pretty cool!
From South Africa✌🏻️

+Paul de Beer wow. Thanks for the info! That meet snack sounds good. Maybe it is like Jerky in the states. I would love to visit SA some day.
It's a lot like jerky.
It is basically jerky, but we call it biltong here.
Isn't Centurion a suburb of Tshwane? Near Irene mos? Just checking as me and geography don't always agree😂😅
It is basicly Jerky... but i could be wrong Not sure how Jerky is made but i heard its not made the same... Here in South Africa it piece of meat covered in spices and Air dried for a few weeks *
The way they Milo and nestle hahaha
looking at that packet of Flings and thinking "There's probably only going to be like 2 flings in that packet at best..If you guys are lucky" 😂😂 #SouthAfricanStruggles
KOMOREBI ja bruh
My thoughts exactly 😂😂
last time I counted there were exactly 6 flings 😂😭
Soooooooooo true
KOMOREBI funniest thing😂😂 the South African life.
Is anyone else irritated by the fact that the girl bit half the tex and yet didn't give her dad ?
kaitlin samuel yes!
I'm irritated by the fact that they say me-low.
I am so glad you tried our sweets, but they really could have sent you something better. We have truly great stuff here.
Milo = MY-LO and Nestle = Nest-LAY
by watching videos like this you truly do realise that South Africa is not that bad of a country and by the way just so you know South Africa is a country not a direction
Some of these I haven't had since the 90s. These aren't top snacks here. Biltong is a huge one for us
and also get some ghost pops they are nice too
South African 🇿🇦 proud
Pleased ou like our snacks, but you definitely didnt get our best. Toppers are a cheap biscuit (cookie) as is fizzers and wonderbar. You would love our snacks if you did like those.
"Meelo"
*Angery South African noises*
I am from South Africa and i am still in it u guys have to try the bar one
why did the company send them smaller packages of everything???
It's a FREE Sample Pack !!
Pretty cool snacks! My favorite was the wonder bar!
Sarah Johnson 😂 Wonderbars are literally the cheapest chocolate. It's about R4 or in dollars 0,30c but the are very good though 😊
one time i went to spar and it was R2 one time even R1,50
Hello, Im from South Africa. Its funny watching how your family reacts to our snacks. The tennis biscuits are teh best!!!!
JSMK stone cold crazy oh yeah 😁 I think Americans normally pronounce it Mylo, it's just that we live in Indonesia where it's pronounced Meelo, so that's how we pronounce it haha
qhawe mamana Hi! It was fun trying them!
pppft lunch bar isnt there?
All S.A's are triggerddededededegegegegegedgegdegdgedgegdegdgedgegdegdgd
Hannah Robinson OVIAS!!
Yeah,I love Lunch Bar.
They sent you cheap snacks Bro
Like if u agree
aweh wheres all my Cape Town mense❤
Here Jn lmk
Im from the eastern cape
The Wonder bar is one of the Cheapest chocolates in South africa 🤣
Really?
Martin Johnson yes If you buy it its like R2 maybe R3 and thats like 20 cents in us dollars ($0.20)
Martin Johnson Even Cheaper i Think
Martin I don't think it's that cheap, maybe close to R11 but R3?
You must be joking
joshua wentzel You dont even Pay For N Flake Aero Nothing R11
I feel like the company ripped you off. Most of the mini things came in bigger sizes. The fizzers, the tennis biscuits, the tex and the milo bar for example. Good video though!!
the box was full. I guess they could have sent larger sizes but then they probably would have had less variety.
Martin Johnson okay I understand now. Great Video and am glad you enjoyed some of our South African Snacks. Biltong and some Rusks would have have been good to try to. After this video I think I will try give this a go and get a box delivered by the company. Looks very fun.
You missed out on a lot of amazing snacks but I love these too!
+Somari De Wet Maybe we can visit someday and try them all :)
How fun! thanks for posting:)
Maize and corn are 2 different things. those are the cheapest snacks. Not doing S.A much credit,
Indomie very popular in africa ,maybe you can make video indomie indonesia vs indomie africa :)
Hey, I'm from South Africa and these are not the best we have! The Milo bar is pronounced Mye-low. Fizzers are incredible but not when melted! They're supposed to be fairly rigid. There should have been some better chips, some drinks and at least some biltong! That would've been awesome. But good video!
the little peicec in the "mylow" bar are corals of the hotchoclate that thei also make
I live in South Africa and i dont know what Flings are. Wow
I'm also afrikaans
Mary Sion ek ook!
Baie geluk!
mooi vir jou...haha grap net
hulle het vir hulle rerig net hierdie cheap snacks gestuur daar kort baie goete nog daar
wow you guys sure do live up to the hype... totally rock out! 👌very accomodating feel to be able to have the chance to join in on the fun (tho coming across ur vid only just now.) also thumbs up for epic comic relief element mixed up for some good ol laugh!!!👍👍
I'm a new South African subscriber and glad I found you're channel
you need biltong!!
wow
I'm impressed... Although Tex isn't the most popular chocolate here
Wow guys it was so cool seeying you enjoyed our products from South Africa its the most delicious goodies and the Tex choclate is my fav by far
Tex is the perfect chocolate bar. It's a cross between a Kit-Kat and an Aero. You never have to choose between those two if there's a Tex on the shelf.
milo is pronounced my-low not me-low
I wonder why they sent you such cheap things though like in cape town I'm south africa here I live all these snacks are under R20😂
That's not even 2 dollars worth.
I love how excited you guys got about South Africa...
:D Are you from South Africa?
Martin Johnson I am indeed
Much better snacks in SA! Biltong, cabanossi, dry wors, etc! time for a family trip
I am South African and Toppers and Tex are horrible. The choices in that box are quite average, we have better snacks here.
Jilly A I love Tex😍😍
Nik Naks and biltong best snacks :P
Jilly A I love toppers! 😍
No ways, Tex is the best
They should have added biltong
Enjoyed watching this video. It's been nearly 3 years - Have you guys visited South Africa yet?
Pity about the Fizzers that melted and the Tex Chocolate being so small. The Milo Chocolate bar is pronounced (My-low). You guys will definitely survive in South Africa - We have an abundance of delicious snacks, treats and AMAZING food!
It is also pronounced "Maai-low"
lol why did they send you guys the cheap things?...
How is my country strange you Naai?
Darion Onverwacht why so rude. Moenie kaak praat nie
Shakirah rabiu Oh sorry bruh
Oh and the white TV bar is amaze!
Where did they get TV BAR and TEX from? Haven't seen them in years..
GAVIN BRAND what!!? Where are you from
Mi lo chocolate bar😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
milo is prenouced my-lo
+Gideon Botha not here.
Martin Johnson lol, here? most Americans haven't even heard of Milo. I've heard it pronounced mee-low in other countries, like Australia, but in South Africa it's my-low, which is where those snacks are from. ;)
where do you get this boxes i want one too
+Liia_117 x it is in the description
Martin Johnson thank you and glad you liked our candy 😊like your videos
They had to give you marvelous creations and biltong
The fact is in America your guys choclates are rubbish and your guys deserve better. We feed flings to babies here when they start eating solids. Creme Soda is a soft drink here in South Africa. Most of stuff you"ll received comes in regular size. Toppers come in several flavours and made by Bakers in South Africa. Pronounced My lo here comes as an instant drink, powdered form or as a choclates bar.
So you've tasted most of the Chocolates in America?
Omg i can't be the only one that used to roll up there fizzers
Nice to see they get excited for our country
You guys should try biltong, you'll love it... South Africa's pride 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Saw the Wonder Bar and started drooling
We do have AWESOME snacks in SA
I have never seen your channel but it is nice
Great video
I love wonder bar when I can't open my mind what I want. Fizzers is also nice my kids slap it against a table to brake it. Milo bars is ok, toppers as well.
Milo bars are LIFE!
Haha!
"Are they tennis balls or tennis racquets?" 😂😂😂
"Wow a meelo bar"
Me: MILO
(Its like "my-low" btw ) and I love this video 😂😍
You also get a Milo malt drink that you mix with hot water and milk.
The little pieces in the chocolate bar is milo
Oh well, there are Americans and South Africans who've said that there should be more cultural exchanges between the two countries. An example I'd say is with music, and an example is country music. Another is food, and an example is pumpkin recipes. South Africans generally tend to have a fascination for all things American. The two countries have also had similar histories.

Interesting! You have some good snacks :)
And, that's just snacks. There're also others, like some cooked foods.
I started laughing when I heard the little girl say "Milo" she did say it wrong but there is nothing wrong with it :P
+Nicole The Killer That is how we say it in Indonesia where we live.
K well if ur wondering in south Africa its not pronounce 'melo' we pronounce it Milo like 'I' as in how you normally pronounce the y I'm my. 🤘😄
Great video tho.
I was just dissapoimted as some of the things they sent you guys are very cheap and there are alot if very nice treats in south Africa that they didn't send you
The boy said it not the girl.
Second American video where they pronounce Milo wrong and I love it. It's so pure
🤣🤣🤣 I love how they sent you the struggle box set... I mean flings is the chip we give to babies🤣🤣🤣
Really?
Martin Johnson yes but not infant babies but toddler babies. Or we buy it when we're broke and crave a chippie. Simba potato chip is something they should have sent the bbq flavour. And the wonderbar, man that is one of the cheapest chocolates we have.
The bigger Tennis biscuits are actually for tea
When you wisit sa you gonna love the braai and slaai
Proudly South African.
Lol!! The little boy so cute when he says "Meelo" well the way he pronounced the Milo Chocolate.. it is pronounced 'My-Low'..
Tennis biscuits are delicious when it comes to using them for a dessert.. Tex chocolate my favorite of all time.
Thanks for the cool video.. what a fun activity to do as a family. Really interesting.
Fizzers tend to melt quite easily and they're also really sticky so that's why there was that accident
Makes sense :)
Biltong is the ultimate superior snack! King of all snacks!! Mmm!
Thx for the positive feedback on our food . Thx guys
"It's probably from some weird country....?
Moments later:"South Africa!!!! WOW!!!!" XD
No BarOne? I think that is the most popular chocolate bar in South Africa.
"Nah we don't have any tea, that's ridiculous.." 😅 😅
yeay, finally uploaded this video :)
Awesome snack i never eat before
awesome
Wish you guys received the better stuff, they're far better than the cheap snacks you guys were sent
No biltong?
I'm from south Africa 🇿🇦 I get those treats everyday for school Ps there are way better chocolate in joburg in south Africa
