    Fun Fact: The japanesse peanuts are called Mexican peanuts in Japan, that's because they were invented by a Japanese cook in Mexico so you can say they're a little bit of both 🇯🇵🇲🇽

    As a teen living somewhat close to bordering cities of SoCal in the 90s, My favorite Mexican snack growing up was a small cup of spicy liquid with 2 saladitos in it. It wasn't chamoy, I actually think it was something the ice cream person made themselves, tbh as I have never found that exact flavor ever again. But I will always remember those magic cups of spicy Chile liquid the ice cream man sold. 50 cents each.

      When I started getting into Fluffy, dude was in his late 30s (I forgot that he was on All That in the 90s, lol and I'm a 90s kid). His weight then made me worried about his health. Saw him live a couple of years later live. Dude slimmed a bit, but that's when he opened up about him getting diagnosed with Type-2 diabetes and that he HAD to lose a couple of pounds to stay alive. He said he went from Fluffy to Buffy there. Glad he made that light joke, but glad that he realized along the way that he has that potential to keep that success he ended up getting and deserves and that he needs to preserve as much health as he can so he can live for a long time. Love Fluffy as a comedian and he seems like a great guy to meet. I'd be devastated if he died young.

      I did hear that Lays ketchup chips were really good. Coincidentally, in Mexico there are chips called Sabritas de adobadas, which are potato chips with tomato and a chile that isn't really spicy. I wonder if they taste similarly to Lays ketchup chips?
      I'll have to check out you video on maple cookies then. I'm curious if there is something in the ingredients that makes you like the cookies more or if there is a difference type of maple syrup adding into the recipe?

    My only complaint about this video is it’s not long enough. Love it!

    I'm really enjoying this series. It fun to hear the memories and stories associated with the snacks.

      Made me wish all those snacks were available in Canada so I could taste test them on my channel. The only one we get here in regular stores is the TAKIS FUEGO and I LOVED it when I tried it on my channel !!!!!
