- You've asked for it so we did it! I suppose we wanted to eat a lot of unhealthy food so we filmed it to make ourselves feel less guilty about it! Enjoy everyone!
Let us know in the comments what you make of the American food in London, even though you can't taste it.. just let us know your thoughts! We really enjoyed making this vlog and we have been overwhelmed by the amount of love in the comments since introducing this style of video onto our channel.
Remember to share this video with at least one person who you think might like us (lol) and subscribe if you aren't already part of the fam.

"True friends don't speak when food comes" t-shirt is neeeeeded in my life ❤️😘
That's SUCH a good thing for our merch!! We will make note of it! x
I know its a stupid question but are they dating
They're not dating, but they should just give up and get married. They're so compatible.
Yes! Good merch item!
You also need "Triggered!" and "Offended" T-shirts. :D
As an American who lived in Enlgand for a few years, I can say that the only "American" food that you Brits were able to do correctly was Five Guys Burgers. Everything else that we tried that was "American style" tasted nothing like what it's supposed to taste like. For a real 'Murican meal, you have to come to 'Murica!
Dion Dixon I decided to try an American style restaurant in Northamptonshire. They seemed very proud of their ribs, so I tried them. They were boiled and coated i'm HP.
We lived in Winchester where there was a restaurant that prided themselves on "American style" pancakes. They were about 4" diameter and 1" thick, with a tiny dribble of syrup. While tasty, they weren't anything like a real American pancake!
...HP??
Phil K HP brown sauce.
thanks, had never heard of it. Googled it after you replied, and it seems in the collective opinion of the internet, its in a strange place between A1/wshire/BBQ.
Sorry, but those are hardly nachos, and I don't know what that thing is that looks like a hot dog covered with nacho cheese and ham. In Texas, nachos are smothered in spicy ground beef and nacho cheese, and topped with guacamole and sour cream. The hot dog would be covered in chili and topped with shredded cheese and onions.
Yessss I live in Texas and we put all that stuff on our nachos and she was not eating no nachos
Thats America gor you
here in milwaukee we have a different style brother.
I'd prefer nachos had actual cheese rather than cheese sauce. Cheese sauce is gross
That didn’t look like sour cream either. It had chunks of something not white in it.
Wired how they serve the milkshake in the metal cup. They're supposed to serve it in a glass and then give you the metal cup as the extra. (They mix it in the metal cup)
There are places in America that serve it in the middle cup just as an extra dose of nostalgia and giving a different experience. I'm not sure if Johnny Rockets does that or not, but I've been places where they do it, just like other places will serve you iced tea or cider in a mason jar just to make sure the experience is notably different than just putting your drink in a regular glass.
@@Jack_Stafford Johnny Rockets puts it in a glass with the extra in the metal cup.
Right I thought that too
It makes sense though, the metal cup would keep it cold longer
Maybe the British broke to many mugs so they just served it in metal instead.
When both of you are in public, you appear to be ten years younger in terms of excitement and enthusiasm. It is so cute ❤️
Hahha that's jokes!
Being British: Joel & Lia 😂😂❤️❤️❤️👍🏼.
Oh honey honey honey honey I don’t know what those are but they are not nachos
Tanya DuPras I was thinking the same thing
And....when you said guac and rhymed it with quack, I snorted, I laughed so hard! Lia....It's guac, like rock or sock! Next time, let someone from San Diego make you some nachos, ok? (You'll never go back)
I was wondering what it was hahaha!! 😂😂
Tanya DuPras is that what she had for breakfast? Lol..
Yes, those are some SAD nachos. But even in the US it can be hard to find good Mexican food (really TexMex) if you stray out of the southwest. You guys need to find a GOOD Mexican restaurant when you visit.
"true friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable"....
Cannot believe 34.99!!! For a bag of kisses?? Those are like $4 here or 6.00 in British pounds.
Those nachos looked like the crap you pay $3 for at little league baseball games and school fundraisers that charge ¢75 extra for chili and ¢50 for canned jalapeño slices lol
34.99 for a bag of Hershey’s is highway robbery.
Indeed
I gagged when I saw that, they should just go to COSTCO! HAHAHA
3.49 pounds (five bucks) would be pushing it.
Being British: Joel & Lia 14.99 for queens candy but 34.99 for hersheys. Holy shit. Lol.
Apparently it’s sh¡t compared to Cadbury’s
What a sad little plate of wannabe nachos.
I was thinking the same thing. Even Taco Bell nachos look superior to those.
They don't eat as much as we do (smaller portions)
If anyone wants amazing nachos, go to Guerro's in Austin, TX
at least they serve em
I like that they went out for American food, and Lia ended up eating Mexican food, lol.
We call Whole Foods “Whole Paychecks” because it’s literally a whole paycheck to shop there
Mark Reed lmaooooooo true
Trader Joe's or Sprouts is way cheaper and I feel are better quality products.
For those who need a translation, paycheck means paycheque
hahaha - sad but true.
It is here too!! I don't think i've ever gone in and bought anything at a whole foods market. I tried to go to market basket.
The way you pronounce Guac 😂
Juaocamole ..... Wok kah moh leh.
Absolutely!
Gwack
When you said the pancakes were massive...and my American butt was like "wtf is he talking about?!?! Little tiny pancakes" #americanproblems hahaa
LOL, here in NYC we call those pancakes Sanddollars. The tiny ones. I Hop has the big ones.
Jasmine Gutierrez because your a pig.
Jillian Lehmann exactly! I thought people were joking when they say "AMERICAN SIZE"
Lou Ann Griffin screw off
Having huge portions is not something to brag about.
I would welcome more vlogs in this style. It really shows off your personalities and what great friends you are when you're just out and about having a blast with your bestie.
I hate to say this but all of those dishes appeared to be a British version of some American idea. I have never seen what I think was a "hot dog" in the US. I don't know what those "nachos" were. The pancakes or waffles looked like a kitty meal.
I can get Walkers bickies in Iowa for much less money. The variant on Eggs Benedict is sort of something American but baked beans for breakfast is more British than the House of Windsor. Who would have "mac & cheese" with/for breakfast?
I think you meant a kiddy meal. Kittys should not be served pancakes.
Just about EVERYTHING is a ripoff.
NEVER beans for breakfast in america
The only beans I've ever heard eaten at breakfast is refried beans Otherwise, no beans for breakfast
@@MeanJohnDean I've never heard either I assumed it was an error. I've only heard of kids meal ☺️
Lia the way you saw guac KILLS me! Sounds like you’re saying quack 😂
Ok those are not true American nachos. We serve them in AZ. With the chips first ,melted cheese/cheese sauce, then the taco meat/carne asada meat , refried beans on top that then your salsa, these are optioball sour cream, guacamole some onions an cilantro grated cheese for garnish. That is the loaded southwestern nachos so when you dip the chips or pull one out you get a bit of all the flavors mixed.
debra parkhurst Az mex is trash. Cali mex is the best.
Prince rose. Lol uh you keep on thinking that.
I don't think I know. So...
Prince rose hahaha too funny love it
debra parkhurst yo Im from socal. I go to px, tucson, flag staff, havasu and kingman all the time.
Loved it! Loved it! More of these adventures please...I watched these on my big screen.
I love when you guys are walking around visiting places in the city. It brings back good memories of when I visited. It makes me want to be there.
As others mentioned, the mac & cheese and baked beans aren't normal breakfast sides for Americans (baked beans maybe in a few locales, but not common). With pancakes, we'd more often get a side of 2 eggs, side of crispy bacon or sausage (patty or links) or maybe ham, side of hash browns or grits, or side of fruit. Personally, if not pancakes/waffles/French toast, my favorite is a chicken fried steak topped w/ sausage gravy with scrambled eggs and hash browns...and maybe an English muffin (America's crumpet) w/ grape or strawberry jam/jelly. Biscuits (NOT cookies!) & gravy is nice too...if you don't care about meals w/ no nutritional value. ;-)
Brits really hate Biscuits and Gravy for some reason. Worked in film industry and had a lot of Brits say they'd never tried it and as soon as they did... NOPE! I think it's a mental thing as though it's 'cookies and gravy' and they can't wrap their heads around an american 'biscuit'.
@@MST3Killa I just think they don't get American biscuits...that they just seem like a lump of salty bread stuff to them. Like THEIR cuisine is totally awesome! ;-)
@@MST3Killa biscuits and gravy is the poor American imitation of Yorkshire pudding in my opinion...I'm American and I've had both.
@@flamingpieherman9822 That's fine, Yorkshire pudding tastes like shit to me.
btw cookies were invented by the Dutch and that is what they named the leftover dough they made pastry cakes with cookie means tiny cake so biscuit is wrong sorry british but I still love and worship your kissable bums are you reading this lia you Grecian goddess !
Enjoyed this very much. You took us for a nice walk about. Thank you. Glad you liked the milk shake!
OMG! This is my new fave video! It's so cool! And now I'm starving. Love these vlogs. Keep em coming. Great selection of food choices too. Wonderfully fun topic. Thanks! Love and cheers! 👍💗😘🇬🇧
Love ya Tek
Beans for breakfast, not in America. While we have poached eggs it's not a favorite, we'd have them scrambled and cooked all the way through. Macaroni is also odd for breakfast. We would have scrambled eggs, omelette, pancakes (like the ones you had), sausage (link or patty), hashbrowns, toast, cereal, coffee, orange juice, donuts, waffles.
You forgot the bacon! Real 'Murican bacon, not that ham-like stuff they have in England.
Corba milk, speak for yourself, there's nothing better than a runny egg yoke, especially over some hash browns. Back in the 1970's I cooked in a IHOP, by far the most common way eggs were requested was eggs over easy. But you are right in that I only had to make poached eggs when a customer ordered an eggs benedict, which wasn't near as often as I had to make scrambled, though scrambled was less than over easy. It looked like Lia was enjoying a variation of an eggs benedict.
When I saw that egg slowly running down the side, i can understand why someone coined the phrase ""food porn.''
Runny yolks and refried beans w/ some red rice is also good
Pinto Beans for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner for Mexicans in America! Huevos Rancheros, Chorizo con Huevos, Chile Rellenos, Huevos a la Mexicana!
Something I love about your channel and the comparisons is a bit of, "It's okay for you to pick on us and us on you (yes, believe it or no, it's a two way street!)," but anyone else do it to you and there's hell to pay! I'd say it's much like that with us and Canada, too. Kind of like you're an older sibling that might think they're a bit better at times but anyone else (other countries) pick on Britain or Canada and the US would be right there to stand up to the bullies! And yes I know we're viewed as the bullies often. Not sure that makes sense but there's a strong tie among the three, especially here in the Pacific Northwest (Seattle, Washington--yeah, I know, to names for a place). Love you guys!
I so enjoy watching both of you and getting your unique perspective on British culture and American culture. You obviously enjoy one another's company and have so much fun together, I was quite surprised to hear that you aren't indeed, a couple. Please keep posting these VLOGs because they are so entertaining and fun to watch.
Mac n cheese, bbq beans aren't breakfast food in America. They are more lunch or supper side dishes. Hot dogs are lunch, sausage or bacon is breakfast. But everything looked great...you must have been in a food coma for the rest of the day eating all the sugar and carbs that early...lol.
Hazel Juanita Millan-Hoffman I agree those aren’t breakfast foods whatsoever
Right -- this was breakfast!? This is like a one-way trip to an ulcer for breakfast.
My motto: if you're not 15 minutes early, you're late. Lol.
PilotB fangirl I'm 4 minuets late then 😂
Ooopsieee
Being British: Joel & Lia yes that's the American slogan. We can't stand when people are late. And we can't stand slow table service and the list of what we can't stand goes on and on :) I love milk chocolate but I agree it's very American. 34 Euros for Hershey's outrageous I think they cost me 7 American dollars at the store. Time to order from Amazon.
Paul Bailey we tend to be very German in terms of punctuality.
PilotB most people I know would say that If you're 15 minutes early, you're on time
But, me personally, I'd tell people that If I'm an hour early, I'm on time
Corndogs are not served on buns.
Precisely- the corn part- IS the bun...
Those yummy, cheap sausages dipped in batter and deep-fried!😋
@@Thesdr666 no, that would be a corn breaded hotdog, corn dogs are completely different.
That's like having fish n chips in a bun.
IKR, how the hell do you mess that up of all things
Hahaha, OMG that plate of nachos is . . . bare! I love your frequent portion comparisons and this I really noticed! That plate would be twice that size and HEAPING with nachos and melted cheese and . . . stuff! Hahahaha!
But, they're usually ordered as an appetizer to share!
Such a fun video! Americans say guac and it rhymes with walk. You say guac and it rhymes with quack. Interesting. I love the shortbread! I buy it here.
I'm disappointed in this video you didn't try to trigger anyone. I guess Food brings people together.
Next time we'll bring our A-game!
+Being British: Joel & Lia Actually this time you brought your A +++++ game. I enjoy your going out and doing things videos. You seem more relaxed in them and it's fun to go on the journey with you. I'm looking forward to your vlogs from NYC. And please don't spend the whole time in Manhattan. Explore the other boroughs. Maybe compare and contrast Manhattan and Brooklyn, listen to the different accents each borough has, things like that.
They DID call Hershey vomit.
Hershey uses artificial chocolate.
Also tons of things to do OUTSIDE NYC. Day trip to Montauk!
When I was in college, my boyfriend worked at Cinnabon and he smelled like cinnamon buns ALL-THE-TIME. I could NOT get the smell of cinnamon buns out of his clothes! Wasn't entirely unpleasant... Good memories.
WTF????!!!!???? $34.99 for Hershey's Kisses??? That's savage robbery!!! Looked like a $12.99-15.99 bag, depending on where you live, but $35 is insane!!!
Thats London prices for you, all done to rip off tourists
VAT tax and of course the required tariffs which we can't charge in your stuff. Hope Trumps ends that.
Another Joel & Lia out and about video. These are very good and make someone almost feel like they're with you guys knockin' about.
1:43 = food coma. 3:49 - RIP Cinnabon! 5:01 was...LOL! You had a Twinkie in your hand. One of the greatest snacks ever. But what was funny was the look on your face when you spotted those Oreos! You kind of dissed the Twinkie because you just put it back by feel alone. Your eyes said..."Oh my God!" 5:49 - no suckers with your names = sad panda! 9:41 is where I said OMG! Smoked seaside cheese? That looked good! 12:20 - Also LOL!..."He's like Filch from Harry Potter."...hilarious!
I always click your videos so fast 😂 you two always make the day better. ❤️❤️❤️
Aww thanks Jeremy
Americans love hershey's because for the longest time it was the only chocolate people could get, it was the first mass produced (affordable) chocolate in America. It gets its unique tangy (sour) flavor from the original process to preserve the milk. That was the largest cost initially was the milk, how to have enough fresh milk for mass production before widespread refrigeration. The solution was the control the spoil of the milk, so hershey's actually used spoiled milk in its production, and that is what you're tasting that you can't stand. Many Americans grew up with that flavor so it became a good thing. That sweet and tangy flavor tastes like childhood to many people here. Eating that around a campfire when you're supposed to be putting them in smores. :)
Thanks for the lesson. Didn't know that about Hershey Bars. We always used Hershey's as the generic term for a chocolate bar. Sorta like Kleenex for tissues.
This American doesn’t love Hershey’s. It’s just nasty.
I just discovered you guys (and immediately subscribed). I can barely believe the fast pace of your commentary, the two of you switching off instantly and seamlessly, talking fast in what feels like highly choreographed dialogue. I gather that is just your style. Well, it is fun! You probably don't know you are reinventing at least two old examples of this kind of dialogue. In the 1940s some "screwball comedy" films were built this way (Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn, Jimmy Stewart and others used this pattern). More recently a comedy sitcom called Gilmore Girls featured rapid delivery dialogue. Gilmore Girls scripts contained almost twice the number of pages as ordinary scripts. Your version of this has a fun energy that seems to reflect spirited, positive attitudes.
Lia, you are right that eating spicy food does need a build up if you're not used to it. I'm part Mexican and when I married my husband (who is as white boy as they come) he thought nearly every Mexican dish I made was very spicy. It wasn't really. He loved it so he kept just building his tolerance up. Now he can handle just about anything spicy. His family though, will go through gallons of milk and water whenever I cook for them! And a part of my little Mexican soul died when the neighbors put ketchup on my burritos!
... wait, KETCHUP on burritos? Eww! I'm as white boy as they come too. I've never built up my tolerance for spice either (and I live in Texas!) but even I would never put ketchup on a burrito! Tons of cheese, yes, but not ketchup.
Yeah, I was horrified! There are so many burrito options and that is what they went with?!
Lol! And I thought it was bad that I put a ton of sour cream on them.
Mexican food is not spicy. Mild at best. Stop it.
Speak for yourself jerkwad. Not everyone can tolerate spice.
I love this video I couldn’t stop laughing about you guys eating the food lol 😂 My mom saw it she couldn’t stop laughing and you guys talking about the food you were eating and also we enjoyed the vlog
Aww thanks hun
I love you two’s personalities. When I first started with you guys, I thought you were a couple. Seeing how well you two get along not being a couple, I’d say your chemistry is amazing. Keep up the great videos!! 💕
I loved it! Looked like so much fun! All of it looked delish!
That cheese at Whole Foods looked so good, I'm kind of obsessed with smoked cheeses, my favorite is smoked cheddar, most of the time here in the U.S. cheese comes in 8 oz. blocks, I've been known to just eat the whole thing in one sitting, super healthy, I know!
Omg smoked cheese is everything
Being British: Joel & Lia Cheese is amazing. My father-in-law orders pizza with “As much cheese as you can legally put on it” Which in AZ in the USA is apparently 6xs cheese
We have a store in my town that has a huge selection of cheeses from all over the world, I always drool over all the different kinds for awhile, then almost always end up buying one of the smoked ones. 🤣
You must try 'See's Candies' when you visit the U.S.A. This American chocolate is wonderfully delicious. You'll be greeted with whole samples upon entrance! Please look up the history, prior to going. It is a really great story. See's Candies, is what most Americans relate to, as being "American Chocolate", with the exception of Hershey's milk chocolate, which is used in S'mores by an open campfire.
See's is good, but there are a lot of other really good small chocolate shops in the US as well. Boehm's in Issaquah (near Seattle) and Halletts in Spokane are two excellent premium chocolate shops that make their chocolates onsite.
Sabrina Shires Hershey's is made from veggie oil. They changed the recipe 20 years ago from butter solids...... I live in California and my family has loved Sees since the 40's
"Most Americans"? I'm American and I've never even heard of See's. I'm willing to give them a shot, though.
HickoryDickory86 you must be an east coaster.
HickoryDickory86 been around since 1920. Warren Buffet purchased it in 1972 as their first company Berkshire Hathaway bought and continue the practice of expanding ever do slowly. Sees.com
Lia's food from the breakfast club looks so good! makes me hungry!
This is so funny! As a Californian, I’m dying at the lack of guacamole on that plate! And the lollipops- my daughter’s name is Morgan 😚
I honestly don't think any of the food you had was very American. The pancake looked American though. But, I love your videos of going around London. I want to see a tour. Pretty please?
Mat I feel like what Lia had was a hipster derivation of eggs Benedict
You guys are like the UK version of Will and Grace! Love love love!
So true✌
Why are they like Will and Grace? Is Joel gay?! I don’t think so....
Y'all should try some Soul Food 😋 when visiting the States.
Also, try hitting small mom&pop establishments instead of the big chains.
Great content 🙌🏾 guys!
Love watching the videos, y'all should try some Southern Comfort foods if ya haven't already. Chicken fried steak with mashed taters (country gravy) and homemade Mac n Cheese. Best out there
I'm lowkey embarrassed by the fact that foods we buy in the breakfast aisle of a grocery store you guys buy at a candy store
Laura Anderson hmm they sell them in the cookie aisle here.(Oregon)
Pop-Tarts?? Yeah, that's smart. But is the sugary cereal with the breakfast foods?
Laura Anderson I thought the same thing!
A scientific study in Canada actually proved that coconut water and water equally hydrated. Most coconut brands cannot advertise that it hydrates more than water now
I just love your videos as they are so genuine, warm in their presentation; and, extremely interesting. I am glad that you liked your visits to the USA, but don't forget to visit in the Midwest as you will find it entirely different from NY & NJ. The Southern states are also a delightful place to visit as I am sure you will experience warm and gracious Southern hospitality/food. If possible take in a Southern football game and you will be surprised at the passion and excitement that most Southern people feel for their favorite college football team. The Georgia marching band is known as the "Redcoats"--and, they look like British soldiers of old--colonial days. Many blessings to you both.
Haha! I was laughing when you guys were discussing 'Niamh' and didnt know how it was pronounced! How funny that you thought it was a variant of naomi!..my name is Niamh and my twin sis is Naomi!! 😁 But hey i cant blame ya, gaelic words and names look nothing like they're pronounced and quite a lot of non Scottish irish or gaelic speakers dont know how to pronounce them!
Oh and i laughed aswell when Lia said the walkers shortbread with the Queen on the front isn't endorsed by the Queen because it actually is lol! They are royal warrant holders and supply their shortbread to the Queen and the Royal family..(they're also made right by my home town on the banks of the river spey in Scotland!😊)
I have to say I'm not much of a vlog watcher, i often find them boring, they've got to be something special to keep me interested but I thoroughly enjoyed this! I would like to see more like this just of you guys exploring all things American culture and I think when it comes to vlogs keeping tgem around the 15 minutes mark is perfect. Looking forward to more guys! 😊👍👍
This was great. My name was/is never on personalized items. Really you guys don't like Hersey's? It's not the best chocolate but it will do. But not for 35 pounds!! Jesus crazy expensive. I do like Cadbury. If you make it to Southern California look for See's Candy stores. You 2 will love it! I so enjoyed this video. Very fun.
Side note...Dear gawd, Joel pancakes, BBQ beans, & Mac and cheese? You have a stomach of steel!
I'm American and of all the meals I ate in London by far the worst meal I had was an attempt at an American cuisine.
Good to know Jess. We are very sorry to hear that
I've also noticed this on my adventures in Europe. They don't do American cuisine well.
Being British: Joel & Lia thanks for your sweet reply. No need to apologize as London had so many other wonderful things to offer. Its truly an amazing city. Although San Francisco will always have my heart (being a bay area native), London comes close.
Karl Toth they do not but they sure serve up some amazing Indian food!
Jessica Jessica: As an American I'm hard pressed to nail down an American cuisine. What did these places serve?
Also, really like your vibe in this video! You guys are nice!
Oooo, The Breakfast Club is a great movie! :D Cool that there's a restaurant with the same name.
Also, wow, that candy/snack store's music is so loud. Do a lot of shops there have music intended to drown out conversations? I think that would drive me nuts. Here in the States when there's a store with super loud music, I don't want to go in. @_@
Mac and cheese with pancakes ... that's a weird combination... 🤢
Americo Galindez I thought so too!🤢
Definitely not a combo we'd eat in the US (at least here in the northeast). Pancakes are eaten with bacon/sausage/ham!
Chris Freemesser Yesss! A side dish might be eggs, hash browns, or even biscuits and gravy, if you get one of those giant combos at IHOP or Denny’s
And I’ve heard of chicken and waffles, but not waffles the way Lia had them. I actually prefer mine with butter and maple syrup!😋
And the beans with pancakes???? Not something you’d get here. 😝
Hi, Joel and Lia. This was another great fun video!
"True friends don't speak when food comes." This should be on a tee-shirt or something.
I googled it. Every website that I found says it's pronounced "new-tell-uh" (Lia's way).
Can always count on you Mark to see where I'm coming from! Everyone in the comments has annihilated me and chosen to side with Joel. Yay for the quote
Yes, we do have the "Goober" pnut butter and jelly mixed, I have a jar in my cabinet now! 😊
I’m an American in London right now so thanks for this! I’d been to THAT Cinnabon on two previous visits and was also heartbroken on this visit when we found it had been replaced 😢😭😖☹️
That sweets shop is a specialty shop for y'all, but I find those things in Walmart and think nothing of it lol Love seeing America from other people's view
Marcus Thomas right? Or down the road at the local Dollar General😂
I love how Lia says guac. It sounds like she’s saying “quack” but with a “g”.
Why how do you say it? ahhaha
I hate it it's so wrong it sounds like a bad duck impression
not hating on them just that one word
Lia says it the correct way. It's guacamole, not "guahcamole".
We say it with an "aw" sound-- guawck
This was so cool thanks for taking us with you. I got to see things I may never get to see but sure hope I do. Why are you guys not a couple?? You are like soul mates & look perfect together!
As an American, I thoroughly enjoyed your pronunciation of "chips" 8:12 😂👌
FYI: Hersheys became a "House-hold-name" in the U.S. by being a staple in soildiers dailey ration kits in world war 2, and never had an advertisement to do it. The only Adds they had were 4 road signs on the 4 roads into Hershey Pennsylvania.
lee pagnini Things like sugar were strictly rationed in the UK during WWII, so a GI with Hershey bars and Wrigley's gum in his pockets was very popular with British kids. A few years later, US pilot Gail Halveson, aka "Onkel Wackenflugel," was dropping tiny parachutes with packets of American sweets for half starved Berlin tots during the Berlin Airlift. Funny how such a mundane item as sweets have figured so prominently in history.
Hershey's is now an embarrassment to the US.... what awful chocolate-less 'chocolate'
URUSOIMI
WTF?
Oreo's are also no better than the generic knockoff's now. All sugar and no Chocolate. It's the fake 'chocolate' shortage......to drive up prices of course.
Sugar was also rationed here in the U.S. during WWII. I remember my Mother had a book with little stamps in it . You were only allowed One bay per month. Bubble gum was also rationed , that stuff went to the troops overseas.
34.99 for a bag of candy??!!! And 13.90 for a combo meal, wow! That's really expensive. I wish we had a breakfast club, your meals looked amazing. Except, I don't eat poached eggs :) fun video!
Catching up on the back catalog of videos. Yes, Brown Sugar and Cinnamon Pop Tarts! Yes, on the Goober Grape (PB and Jelly together) it was as childhood fave. Yes, on Kylie Minogue playing in the background. Also, back in 2017 (I think), I also attempted a stop at Breakfast Club, whilst visiting London, and the line was too long. Looks so good.
Aloha from Hawai'i 🌺 so glad i found you guys😂 you crack ne up! I've been binge watching you guys all weekend😊walkers is my FAVORITE TOO LIA❣❣❣❣they're expensive here too😕 HAPPY holidays from Hawai'i 🌴🌺😎💙
It’s cinnagone
Matt Airriess took me a second LOLOL
Goober jelly is a legitimate American product. It would even make sense if it weren't overpriced. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich is a common kid lunch.
The diner food looked more or less like an actual American restaurant. I was going to say that people don't go to diners to eat hot dogs, but then I remembered that I grew up near a "world famous" hot dog restaurant called Tony Packo's. Let's say hamburg restaurants are much more common than hot dog ones.
I just checked out if the hot dog cart was in downtown crossing in boston. It is, but they want $6 for a hot dog. I think the last time I got one off that cart, before the virus, it was like $3.00 or $2.50. Prices for food are crazy now. I can't even afford to eat. I go shopping in the market for several things and it cost me $40.
He was like “its so messy” that’s how you know it’s some good eatin😂
Oh my god guys you are hilarious! Love yo so much! Big hugs from Costa Rica
Love Joel in shorts btw More please PEACE
Totally thought you were a couple too! Just a recommendation from the south, mix that Mac & Cheese with the BBQ Beans 😉
Love watching Joel and Lia
Almost all the stuff sold in that Kingdom of Sweets shop can be found in any American supermarket: in the candy and cookies aisle, in the breakfast cereals aisle, in the snack foods aisle, at the bakery, sometimes in the imported/specialty food aisle, and even in the bulk food aisle.
that what-a-melon looked really good though.
Can you guys do a vid where you speak with an American accent the whole time? Wanna see if you do it!! 💯💯🙏🏼😂
Yes I agree! Maybe a whole video where you try to talk and act like Americans, that would be epic! :-)
anybody with me when i say joel makes my heart flutter a bit, tee hee! but the cuteness of his face at 5:38 when he rambled on about hating hershey's and lia reminds him they worked together in the past, haha!
I love you both so much. You always have honest opinions but are so lovely & positive to the American culture. I was a flight attendant for 16 years and been fortunate to travel the world and spent loads of time in the best US cities. I live in Texas now and so love it having lived in Seattle WA, Washington DC, Boston MA, Houston TX, Cleveland OH... Texans are such warm and wonderful people. I hope you visit here one day.
Omg, Brown Sugar Cinnamon POP Tarts are my absolute favorite! Excellent choice!
YESS Justin
God Bless America I hate the Frosted ones. ;)
Justin Taylor My favorite, too, but far better toasted!
Paul Bailey BSC are the only frosted ones I like.
John Speer who doesn’t toast them?! Everyone: ALWAYS toast your pop tarts!!
Sorry Lia but I side with Joel on this one, definitely Nut-ella! It's not made of newts 😂 also, that Breakfast Club food looks absolutely amazing! 😍
You two are so fun!
This is my all-time favorite video!
Ed’s easy diner kinda looks like “Johnny Rockets”
angelgalvarado or Mels diner
Brown sugar cinnamon is the best Pop Tart.
Jeff Morse Bro.
Sorry but it’s actually chocolate chip cookie dough
Agreed, finished a box the other day
Frosted blueberry for me.
+Jeff Morse I totally agree, especially the cinnamon one without the icing. Chocolate fudge would be my second favorite--and the only one with icing that I like.
That Union Jack Fridge is everything!
You two are adorable, I love your vlogs.
Love this one!!! But Sorry Lea, Joel’s right about Nutella. 😜 i would also love trying out your version of nachos!! 😂 (I love the way you say guac) And yes we do have peanut butter and jelly (jam) in the same jar. LOL. 35 pounds for a bag of kisses??? Are you kidding?!?! You can get Kisses in BULK here for 15 USD, and a simple bag for 4! Love you guys! 💖
I'M SHOOK.. and yeh.. outrageously expensive!!
I can never find my name a lot of the time as well Lia. Also you guys need to try American barbecue. It’s amazing!
mariah acuff that is a whole episode in itself because there is Memphis, southern, etc. different parts of America even consider different meats to qualify for barbecue. 🍗
Omg you guys have everything 👉 there 😍😍😍even my favorite American snacks
LOVE the out n' about vlog!! You need to do travel tours!!! UK for us Yanks, then to the US for Brits (and for our general American amusement). Then who knows... A regular on nat geo including all of Europe? New Zealand? African Safari!?!
Just take us with you, we're dead bored of Utah. It's gorgeous here though a definite must see for your travels!
Have you seen the snickers commercial where two guys are in a car, and the guy in the passenger seat goes “do you like amands?” And the guy driving goes “nooo I like almonds” and hates his friend can’t pronounce almonds correctly?! It reminds me of the Nutella comment in your video!
pop tarts for 5.99 ??? At my local grocery store Pop tarts were just on sale for 1.40 ( GBP ) or $ 1.85 US.
Yep, and if I recall a story about Europe in general is that prices on just about every retail item (food or otherwise) is quite a bit more expensive than they are here in the US.
It's because of the tariffs (Importation tax) that the U.S. charges for exported goods. They have to make up that cost. That's why things from out of country are often more expensive.
From NY..enjoy your energy....don't mind the haters. Lol Yet the ones that correct and inform you are good..they have your back. We got to look out for each other around the world. Thanks for all your cheerful videos. All the best.
I love that you love olives. A lot of Americans don't which is ridiculous. They're great. My grandma would always serve olives with a pickle and grilled cheese. So good!!
Walkers shortbread was always something we had around the holidays haha
Joel looks ginger under the sun 😀
I love this video! Poor Lia your nachos didn't look like nachos, and I can't speak for all Americans but I personally have never seen someone eat a plain Hershey bar, it's always with smores or added to something else
I'll be that "queue" for the Breakfast Club wasn't there 24 minutes earlier. 😂 Joel, did you just call your chips "fries"? I watched this just so I could see if you guys might mention that. You surprised me. I thought you would either call them chips, or else "fries" but explain why, and you did neither. 👏🏻 You forgot one: "when there's no more cinnabon, cinnabon!" "Morgan is such an American name" - unless you take into account Morgan le Fay from the Arthurian legend, and that it's derived from Morgen - which is Welch. 😂😂 Is it new-tella nuh-tella? That depends on whether you say hazelnoot or hazelnut, because it's made from hazelnuts.
I had to pause the video just to comment and confirm that we *DO IN FACT* have the peanut butter & jelly stripes in a jar called GOOBER! I can't stand the stuff anymore but I lived off of this as a child
