I’m south african too and when they brought up Dove I was confused, because dove makes soap not chocolate 😅

In Portugal the ice creams we call it OLA like South Africa, and DOVE is a soap ;)

That girl from South Africa is so positive and fun to watch. Loving her vibe!

It's funny, in Belgium we do the same thing as in South Africa. We use a popular brand as the slang word for all of that stuff. Like, a pen could be called 'bic', glue could be called 'pritt', diapers are also called 'pampers'... That's in Flemish (Belgian Dutch) slang though, I don't really know if they do this in French-speaking Belgium too.

Interesting that in South Africa all soda is also coke. In the American South we also call all sodas coke, which can lead to the fun exchange: "What would you like to drink? -Coke What kind of Coke? -A coke coke" (meaning a normal coca-cola as opposed to say, a sprite)

As Indian i can Mostly relate to the with south African

South Africa does not have only English as an official language , of course the accent and some words are different , there are 11 if I'm not mistaken, I'm not used to the accent or words from there, but it's good to see people from there on the channel to learn

Im south african and when they said dove i thought they meant the soap, and when they started talking ab chocolate i was SO confused lol

We do have some Hershey's chocolate products in South Africa, unfortunately the majority of the products are quite expensive due to them being imported from the US

Speciality stores will sell imported Hershey’s in South Africa at crazy prices. On a side note, I found Lucky charms cereal from the states at like R200. My son is soo excited and totally rationing it.

I've had Hershey's in South Africa. I saw it being sold at a store and was curious. Worst chocolate I've ever tasted 😂 I'll stick to the usual top deck thanks

In Portugal we call the Ice Cream brand "Olá", which means Hello haha The Dove one had me shook, when you started talking about chocolate, all I could think about was Soap and creams

In Jamaica, it could be frosted flakes, coco puffs, lucky charms, we call them all cornflakes 💀🤣

South Africa has a lot of Englishes. There's always words that's being left out cause they used by different communities or in different regions. The brand name thing is true though 😂

It's interesting how brands market differently in each country~ Definitely learned something new! -Christina 🇺🇸

Wow, this has been the wildest video I've seen on this channel thus far. I'm also named Christina & also from New England, so it was super interesting to hear all of these brand differences.

I need a moment to appreciate the outfit Lauren is wearing , it's very good , perfect mix of white and green , green probably her favorite color as well as mine 💚🤍

I get mad excited whenever I hear "in South Africa..." 😂

SA should consider it's self lucky that Hershey's vomit food never invaded it's shores :)

I live in South Africa so when they said dove was chocolate I was so confused because dove chocolate is not in South Africa I thought they meant dove lotion and soap😂

Do one with Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, South Africans, British, and Americans

Wait, as an aussie I was confused because I thought dove was a Deodorant brand... it is, I just checked but I have never ever heard of dove being chocolate It is and has always been a Deodorant or a bird

In India cornflakes are usually called Cornflakes or Kellogg's and we have Chocos too so we call it that. And regarding the Good Humour, Ola thing we call it Kwality Walls, that's the brand name. Dove chocolate is something that I've never seen but if you look at the texture it looks like what the British girl said, it's called Galaxy here as well. For us, Dove is more of a shampoo and soap brand.

We do have Hersheys in South Africa though🤣🤣🤣they just sell them at importing candy stores

In Dutch the icecream is called Ola as well and together with Luxembourg, Belgium and Portugal (Olá) we’re the only ones in Europe as there’s a looooot of names. Frisko, Frigo, Langnese, Miko, lusso, Eskimo, GB Glace 😆

last time i checked, we don’t have frosted flakes/frosties in south africa (or at least in cape town where i’m from). whenever i go overseas, it’s literally my favorite thing. i wish we had it here

Ok, y'all, did some Googling on the Chocolate-Soap conundrum... Dove Chocolate was created in Chicago in 1939. It became wildly successful and was eventually acquired by Mars in the 1950s. Mars decided to keep the branding as "Dove" In the US, but then created their own Galaxy branding for distribution in the UK and other countries. As for Dove Soap, that was invented in the 1940s by an American chemist and became a company in the mid-50s, around the same time Mars bought the chocolate. Seems to be a situation of two separate brands that rose to prominence at the same time in completely different industries.

It's interesting how globalised firms keep the name of the brands they buy in those contries.

In South Africa we say Coke Light. Funny enough, if the brand becomes synonymous with a particular product, the product in question will be forever known by that brand's name (as well as the given product name, like Bakers' Lemon Creams) regardless of whether it's produced by a different brand. The brand Sparletta produces a wide variety of flavoured brightly coloured soft drinks, including but not limited to: Sparberry, Pineapple, Gingerbeer and Cream Soda. The Cream Soda version is so popular that with it's distinctive green colouring, nobody even calls it a "Sparletta" anymore, cuz the only other brand that makes Cream Soda here is Frankie's, but it's not nearly as widely popular as the Sparletta version, it's like we don't even need to see the label, cuz if it's bright green and near the Cokes, it's most likely a Cream Soda. The Sparletta Gingerbeer flavour is branded as a Stoney. Regarding Coke Zero, when it was first introduced it was branded as "Coke Zero" or "Coca-Cola Zero", but the name "Coke Zero" has stuck despite them rebranding to "Coke No Sugar". We do often generalize the Coke flavours as just "coke", but there is a large group of people with diabetes and/or high blood pressure, so Coke Zero and Coke Light are often specified as well.

Just like in South Africa, it used to be common here in the southern USA for people to call any soda a "coke" no matter which brand you were talking about. Younger generations don't really do that anymore. It's more likely that one would ask for a "cold drink."

In the UK and Cyprus I love Paprika flavored crisps!! Also love chocolate covered Digestives!!!

In Brazil we call it Coke Zero and it comes from zero sugar, the can is also different, it's got black accents instead of white. There used to be light and diet cokes but I haven't seen one since the early 2000s...

"Coke, for us is coke, no matter what the kind of coke, coke is always coke". Underrated thought N phrase 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤭🤭🤭💛💛💛🌼🌼🌼🌼😉

Here in Portugal the ice cream brand is called Olá, just like in South Africa. Olá means "hello" in portuguese

That Ice cream logo we have the same in Sweden but we call it GB Glace

The ice cream one is so interesting, it has so many different names in different countries. Here in Austria we call it Eskimo and in Germany it's called Langnese. As a child I used to eat almost all their ice creams and popsicles, but these days I mostly only get a Magnum, Twinni or Cornetto.

Coke , Diet Coke , Light Coke , Sprite , Soda , Fresh Drink , Soft Drink , Cooler , Refrigeratory , too many words actually , i also can say just "Coca-Cola"

Wall's was founded in 1786 by Richard Wall, when he opened a butcher's stall in St James's Market, London. In the 1900s the business was led by Richard's grandson Thomas Wall II. Every year the company had to lay off staff in the summer as demand for its sausages, pies and meat fell, so in 1913 Thomas Wall II conceived the idea of making ice cream in the summer to avoid those lay-offs

I’m from the south, everything is coke except sprite. Sprite is sprite

The ice cream brand is Ola in Belgium too!

Yeah I'm from South Africa and we just call it coke unless you're looking for a spesifiek type then we would say diet coke

In Australia most places don’t have frosted flakes or hersheys they aren’t very popular Also we have lays chips as well they are two completely different brands

You gotta try Lay's lightly salted in the light blue bag. The regular ones in the yellow bag taste too greasy and oily since they switched to a "healthier oil" to cook them in. The lightly salted are perfect for getting more of that potato flavor.

Heartbrand Ice Cream is owned by Unilever and they use the local Ice Cream brand they absorbed in each country Good Humor, Walls, Ola, Streets ... But also Tio Rico, Pingüino, Miko, Frigo, Eskimo etc. etc.

U.S- Good Humor U.K- Walls Australia-Streets South Africa- Ola but for us Filipinos, its "Selecta" xD

From NZ a brand that represents us is the Witherlea hills wine hand made in Blenheim (Where I used to live!)

In Mexico, Lays is Sabritas. Frosted Flakes is Zucaritas (meaning the sugary ones 😋) The ice cream is Holanda (no h sound) similar to South Africa

in Australia we also have coke zero which i see more than diet and i have also seen galaxy chocolate aroud and never dove and dove is a soap brand, i think the galaxy/dove chocolate is mostly imported from us/uk same with hersheys.

in the uk for the juice we also call it fizzy juice

As an Australian, I only know dove as a soap or moisturiser and we do have galaxy chocolate here

In Peru we have Coke Zero. We used to have Diet Coke but for some reason it went away when Coke Zero came.

Tbh the only way I got a Hersheys bar in South Africa was in the candy/slushie section in the willy Wonka part at Carnival city

I'm an Aussie and this was so fun watching

The ice cream brand is called Algida in Poland. Now I'm really confused why it's different in different countries.

Good humor 😂 so funny and low. I never heard of Streets in Australia or may be i missed. Walls yes. Definitely.

SA has Hershey's now, it's just not sold on the same commercial level as Cadbury, Lindt or Ferrero Roche

The reason for the different ice cream brand names is that they were all different companies that got bough up by British Unilever. They get to keep their original name but get the Heartbrand logo to show they are all connected. The Good Humor name came from the belief that a person's "humor", or temperament, was related to the humor of the palate (taste). So the idea was that the ice cream made you happy and less angry. They are apparently the first who came up with the idea of having ice cream on a wooden stick.

the good humor ones we used to call it selecta here in ph

When I have bad mood - Christina and Lauren can entertain me

Here in Greece, when we say soda, we mean sparkling water. All the sodas are called beverages, in Greek "anapsiktika". Also, Good Humor ice creams are called Algida.

Do some germanic languages (English, German, Afrikaans, Icelandic, Norwegian) comparison

I think in mexico we have something like south africa because we would say "Holanda" the ice cream brand so its kind of familiar for me to hear "Ola" its almost the same so its nostalgic

For Switzerland (Swiss German): Diet Coke: Coca-Cola Light (full name), but usually we would just say Cola Light or Coci Light Soda: Süessgetränk (translates to sweet drink) McDonalds: McDonalds (Full name), but usually we just say Mac Burger King: Burger King Dove: I don‘t think we have that here. We have all the Swiss Chocolates. Here Dove is a brand for skin care, soap and such things. Lays: I don‘t think we have them here. We have Zweifel instead. Frosted Flakes: Frosties Good Humor: Lusso

Dove is also a soap in South Africa

In SA we have dove as a soap and as a funeral parlor 😂😂

Ola is the Dutch name Unilever uses for the brand.

New Orleanians (and plenty other south Louisianians) say “cold drink” [cole drank] when referencing soda. But, “Coke” may also be used to refer to different kinds of soda.

We have Lays in Australia, smiths is a different brand

Can you put more New Zealand people Please

As a South African here are some "corrections" (she's not necessarily wrong just maybe forgot a few things/calls things by less common names) -Popular South African brand I would say is Nando's -We call diet coke coke light, when someone asks for a coke at a restaurant they will always give you a regular coke. You would have to specify that you want a Coke Light or a Coke Zero -We call frosted flakes frosties, I don't know anyone who would call them just Kellogg's and I'd imagine most people would be a bit confused if you were to ask for "Kellogg's" -The heartbrand is Ola and the do make ice cream called "Rich and Creamy" (which is not expensive) I would just like to add that throughout South Africa we have different dialects and so while what she is saying may seem confusing to me, they could easily make more sense to someone from where she is from

In my country, Poland, as Lay's we saying it with english pronunciation, but we adding "y" on the end, it's like plural form in polish. To many english words we adding that "y", even if english word is alrwady as plural, we adding our plural form, for example to "chips" we use word "chipsy". :D And, if I'm correct, Good Humor in my country is as Algida, it have the same heart symbol and I found that both are from Unilever, so.

This is what these brands are called in Israel. Diet Coke/Coke Light: Diet Coca-Cola "soda"/fizzy pop: "cola" if it's coke or Pepsi, but we use our words for carbonated or soft drink for any other kind. Soda is something completely different and I don't get why Americans confuse coke with soda XD McDonald's: McDonald's, no nickname Burger King: Burger King (very unpopular tho, we only have 16 locations) Dove/Galaxy: I've seen Galaxy but it's not popular at all. Hershey's: we do have it but it's very rare and considered as an American exotic XD Lays/Walkers: "Tapuchips", it's our combination of our words for potato and chips. Not sure why they didn't call it Lays here too. Kellogs Frosties/Frosted Flakes: Frosties Good Humor/Walls/Streets/Ola: "Strauss". It's called that because the branding rights were bought here by a huge company called Strauss

Funny thing with the ice cream. It comes originally from Germany and there it's still called Langnese. The surname of the founder's biscuit company.

South African lady is spot on 👍💜

When they they were taking about the Herseys I was like what in South Africa we do but it’s a bit new

I'm not sure what they're talking about with the ice cream, I've never heard of any of those 😅

I’m Australian and for the cold drink we say cool drink

In Sweden we say "Donken" which translates to "The Donk". Which is of course McD.

In the Philippines, we call the ice cream Selecta and dove is also soap/shampoo (:

I live in South Africa and I’ve never heard of kellog for the cereal

In Australia Lays And Smith Chips are different pretty sure unless I just go to asian grocery store too much

Lol is it just me or when u saw the dove u thought about the soap 🧼 😆

As an Aussie I can guarantee that dove chocolate doesn’t exist in Australia it’s called galaxy but I’ve never heard of it The only dove I know is moisturiser, soap, deodorant and basically bathroom stuff

The whole thing about Hershey's process is not that it's "low quality" per se, regardless of cocoa solids in the finished product. It's the taste: their process makes something called butyric acid which gives it a very smooth, melty consistency but... for non-Americans not raised eating it makes it taste like.... sick. Butyric acid is also found in sick, so a lot of non-Americans who try it don't like it. I was raised on it and I no longer like it (too sweet in addition to the acid thing). The European method gets a slightly rougher texture but a smoother taste. (To me, anyway.)

Omg I love the South African girl

I'm also From S.A I call it soda cold drink or coke

In Brazil good humor is called kibon

Walls in Italy is "Algida", still completely different :D

For me in Australia, it's Coke zero Fizzy/soft drink Maccas Hungry jacks tf is dove chocoloate??? i've never seen that in my life smiths chips I don't think we have frosties in my city but I've heard of it in Melbourne streets

I was so confused when they said Dove is a chocolate because I always thought it was just a shower brand.

POV your looking for a comment that isn’t talking about South Africa

Awesome 😎

Scenario [very true] America: McDonalds Britain: Mackie Australia: Maccas South Africa: McD's [ROBLOX COMMUNITY] Databrawl: McDod

In southern us we have braums Ice cream and burgers

FUN FACT: Burger King came to Australia only to find an Adelaide small business burger outlet trading under the name "Burger King". The mega franchise took the small business owner to court and expected to steamroll over the man and out of court with a victory. Burger King lost the case! In order to trade in Australia, Burger King had to spend millions on rebranding with a new name. In 1971, it settled on the name "Hungry Jack's". Years later, Hungry Jack's had violated a renewed franchise agreement by not opening a certain amount of franchises. In order to meet terms and conditions, Burger King went into partnership with Shell Australia, a subsidiary of Shell Petroleum, and opened joint Hungry Jacks restaurants built within Shell petrol stations. Hungry Jack's and Burger King, though one in the same, are in constant litigation with one another. Australia is the only place in the world where Burger King is called Hungry Jack's.

In Trinidad 🇹🇹 we call "kellog" corn flakes

I think some states say soft drinks for soda 😅

where was this filmed ?

Lauren accent and style is one of the worlds best 👌

have never seen fizzy drinks called fizzy pop ever in the uk
