Americans' views of British food may be a lot harsher than those of the citizens of England, but general perceptions of food from different countries can be hugely biased; for instance, there's far more online hate and vitriol directed at France than any other country, while the perceived quality of Mexican food is generally held in high regard. Plus, many English viewers may hold Engish-based prejudices related to those fried pasty components of traditional British cuisine which Americans may see as unappetizing (think battered fried chicken).

Not a person whom I know of hates them. We love diary milk chocolate, ribena, marmite and we also dip our biscuits into tea. In the Malaysian Chinese cuisine, there's a dish called marmite chicken which, in my opinion, has the god tier flavour ❤.

If you ever come across it don't drink it straight but don't make it weak. Do the opposite of its serving in this video. Pour in a very decent amount of syrup, the water is pretty much to "fill" the glass. I did the same thing with Fluff. I had spoonful straight out of the jar, which wasn't ideal (it wasn't bad, it was actually nice) but someone commented on another video that eating it like that is disgusting and I can see their point.

The tea part is fascinating. If you go to a traditional kopitiam (coffee shop) in former British colonies of Malaysia and Singapore (and certain parts of Indonesia) and order a cup of teh (tea), you will automatically get tea with milk (and sweetened). That’s just the default definition of teh (tea). If you want tea without milk, you have to specifically order it as teh o (tea without milk).

It's such a pity that blackcurrant was banned in the United States for many years, due to it possibly carrying a disease that could harm certain trees here. The Federal ban is over, and some states now permit growing the plants, but the flavor has never really caught on here because it was nipped in the bud due to the government restrictions. I've had the pleasure of enjoying blackcurrant kvass from Ukraine and blackcurrent-flavored Jelly Babies and loved them both. It's like grape, sort of, but better! Will have to see if I can get Ribena at our local European expatriate market! I'd never paid attention to it before, but I'm sure I'll love it -- as much as I do Yorkshire Gold!

I love Cadbury chocolate! I’m not sure why it doesn’t get more attention here, especially since Cadbury Eggs are an Easter candy staple. The scone, jam, and cream definitely would’ve been my number 1. When I was a kid, my mom actually made some homemade scones with Devonshire cream, and it was so delicious!

@barrymoreblue I'm sure you can! You just have to make sure that you buy in a place that imports them, and the wrapper on the back will state as much. I know of an English cafe near here that has the imported ones, and it's possible that the imported aisle at my local supermarket might, because we have lots of English and Irish here. But I just haven't cared enough to go and seek it out yet.

Asia is not a monolith, don’t think that it’s the same everywhere in the continent. If you go to a traditional kopitiam (coffee shop) in Malaysia or Singapore and order a cup of teh (tea), you will automatically get tea with milk. If you want tea without milk, you have to specifically order it as teh o (tea without milk).

I'm not English, where I'm from the Bell brand of tea is common. I tried Yorkshire a few years ago. Compared to Yorkshire, Bell has a weaker flavour and is sweeter, Yorkshire has both a richer and more bitter taste. I now drink Yorkshire! Half of my pantry is now European foods from watching food tasting channels (also the Try Channel, Adventures and Naps etc.). Where in England are you from?

If anyone is wondering why I have commented so much on this video it is because (besides the Ribena) it hit out of the park! The subtitles, Steven Lim is becoming one of my favourite youtubers, discrepency between nationalities and my favourite thing about this video: they selected top notch snacks to represent the U.K. In a lot of other food tasting videos the selection of snacks is often under heavy scrutiny.
