    Thanks for the reaction. New Zealand likes sweet food. Whittakers is my favourite chocolate. I don’t really buy biscuits but those “cameo cremes” I remember from the 80s and they were always last to go from the cookie tray lol. Those Kiwifruit and Feijoa
    (fe-jaw-a) candies I’ve never seen before. They look like something from a souvenir shop to sell to tourists. Once chips are opened you can place remainder in freezer and it keeps them fresh and crisp for weeks. Raro is our no frills orange juice. You mix one packet to one litre of water and stir and it’s ready. That recipe you read I’m sure no one does lol. Keep up the good work.

  • @geangekate
    @geangekate Před rokem +9

    Raro is actually made just as you thought, just mix up with water (make sure to make it reasonably thick, or else it's a bit too watery and tasteless). It's very much a kids drink. Making it up with lemonade/ice cream is more of an extra/treat suggestion. Esp with ice cream, you'd only really give that to kids at a party or similar...I've never heard of mixing raro up with ice cream, you'd usually do a lemonade and ice cream combination, called a spider.
    Feijoas are amazing, delicious fruit. Most kiwis love them, but some people do hate them, so maybe you'd fall into the latter category if you didn't like the lollies. It is quite a distinctive, unique taste. We have feijoa flavour everything lately, they're so popular.

    One of the things you'll find with snack foods made in New Zealand is that we have very strict regulations about what can and cannot be included in the food. As a result, we make our snacks with a lot of natural ingredients that wouldn't be used in the USA because they're more costly than that the artificial equivalent.

    Hey there I'm in NZ, firstly salt and vinegar chips are good or bad depending on how strong the taste is of vinegar and they come in chicken as well. The Raro drink sachets you have are individual and can be mixed with 1litre of water well shaken and refrigerated. The drink you couldn't pronounce is better known as L and P. And Tim tams chocolate biscuits are the best single layer and double layer chocolate if you ever try them as are twisties which are like crisps. Happy eating you made me laugh because I also spat the coconut balls out. But never have never seen the lollies 😂

How much Raro you add to the water depends on personal taste. Paeroa is said like this -----> Pai-row-ah you can replace the Pai with pie if that makes it easier. And we just call the drink L&P.

I would love to try some of American sweets n snacks, what is your fellas favorites. ❤❤❤

    Whittaker medium dark for me, (they have a wide range of dark chocolate). L&P of course and Cookie Time too. The soft pineapple lumps and Griffin's Gingernuts, (dunked in hot tea.)

    Hi, I'm from New Zealand, and that drink raro what you do get a ltr jug of water put one pkt in stir well and drink what they are suggesting is another sort of drink you can make with it.

  • @switchwolf1295
    @switchwolf1295 Před 21 dnem +1

    pronounced fee-jo-a, if you aren't used to the fruit you probably wont like them, personally love them. also as you call them fiber bars we call the muesli bars. the raro, just use water, the drink on the back is called a "spider" its not the actual drink

    @funlovinmumma Před 21 dnem

    Kiwi here... or New Zealand local. L&P is Lemon and Paeroa ... Pronounced pie raw a. Feijoa pronounced as Fee joe a. The raro you can mix with water, tgats how most of us would do it. 1 packet of raro to 1 litre of water. Also the L&P is much nicer cold 😊

  • @vinzenzdeanson4946

    Good video but as a Kiwi I have to say peanut slab, Cookie Time and Ginger nuts needed to be present.

  • @ewetube1969
    @ewetube1969 Před 18 dny

    The RARO is just a flavoured water drink. The lemonade and ice cream is just an option. Paeroa is Pronounces (PIE RO A) It's a small town in the Waikato in the North Island, Waikato is pronounced (Why cat O) Great video.

  • @dumdumbinks274
    @dumdumbinks274 Před 24 dny +1

    Arnotts are another good biscuit company. Try their Tim Tams, Mint Slices , or Farmbake Cookies.
    Griffins Gingernuts are great for dunking in a hot drink. They go well with tea or hot chocolate, not sure about with coffee.
    Copper Kettle chips are better than Bluebird.
    You also need Pineapple Lumps and Machintosh Toffees.
    Heard's Barley Sugar is nice - the sort of thing my grandma would stock in her pantry as a treat, along with Oddfellow peppermints.

  • @skiBDman

    btw lemonade over here is different to over in USA it kinda like your sprite it's like sweet flavorless soda basically so you could have that raro with sugar and water or anything

    Seems the algorithm has thrown this video New Zealands way😂 as others have suggested Raro with 0.26 gal of water (1 litre). Paeroa is pronounced pie-roe-ah. Not everyone like Feijoa or passionfruit! Glad you liked most of our treats. There are plenty more recommendations in the comments from fellow kiwis.

      I agree with you. Hokey pokey biscuits or bars, pineapple lumps things like that. I have never seen those lollies he didn't like. Maybe it's touristy items you pay heaps for at main centre resorts, eg Rotorua. Queenstown etc.

    The raro is a drink that you mix with water. The biscuits are just basic nothing to rave about. In fact the biscuits are not even made in nz anymore. The lemon roll things I’ve never seen. The chocolate is the best and the lollies I’ve seen in tourist spots but really unpleasant to taste. You call the fruit Kiwi we call ourselves a kiwi and the fruit kiwi fruit. Fijoa is an acquired taste and a little like Guava fruit from South America but the lollie tastes like petroleum. Many commenters have made some excellent suggestions if you were to try this again. From an old Kiwi😊

  • @chugbry
    @chugbry Před 25 dny

    In NZ we just put the RARO into cold/chilled water, hardly ever into lemonade. Sometimes we'll put it into soda water (sparkling water). As kids we would lick our finger and dunk it into the RARO packet and then lick the powder off our fingers.

  • @tamiiihaaaa
    @tamiiihaaaa Před 25 dny

  • @msflaringnostril
    @msflaringnostril Před 20 dny

    You just mix the Raro with water, it's a juice sachet. The other recipe must have been some sort of desert recipe (which sounds gross) but it isn't actually the main way of making it. Standard is you just mix it with 1litre of water (or slightly less if you like it sweeter) - those candies I've never seen in my life

  • @bradprice1668

    Oh you got the Vogel's! Toasted with spread and a thin layer of Marmite and a slice of tomato and pepper, yum. PLease try making teh kiwi onion dip - it's amazing and a staple here (chill it for a little while). Points for leaing the Whittakers and L&P til last to go together! They're a great combo. Paeroa is a place in NZ (pronounced pie-rower). They used to put Paeroa spring water in L&P til the plant closed down 40yrs ago. Now it's made at the Coke factory in Auckland NZ, still with spring water, just not Paeroa water.

    New Zealand chocolates the best in the world l reckon. I been to Switzerland land of the best chocolates but too rich for me can only eat small bites at a time as to eating a half of a large bar of any flavour of NZ chocolates in minutes. I am so thrilled watching your video especially because you favoured almost all of them. The Raro item l was surprised but quite excited to see it on the table there. Raro is short for Rarotonga the biggest & capital of the Cook Island where the product originated from. I am from there & now living in Australia. You are right thinking it’s a drink because that’s how it all started also comes in cans. Well the canning factory in Raro closed decades ago but it appears the brand lives on. I don’t drink fizzy drinks but would only buy Raro or Vita fresh sachet drinks, brought my kids up on that & fizzy drinks only as a treat. I have watched a few other channels trying out NZ snacks & like you they loved all of them. I’m proud oh incidentally we Cook Islanders are also New Zealanders we carry NZ passports grew up on NZ imported food products. It took me a while to get used to Australian butter & of course chocolates well been here 34yrs lol & loves it. Thank you for your channel my 1st time watching it.

  • @elizabethperrone8649
    @elizabethperrone8649 Před 27 dny
