trading apartment indeed and it's exciting because we're

gonna be doing something fun today so we're going to be doing an Indian snacks

taste test yeah go along with the India video series that we've been releasing

so we're gonna be taste testing ten different Indian food items and we

just picked those up at the grocery store in fact there's a really big

grocery store an Indian grocery store just three blocks from this house we

didn't have to drive we just walk just walked over there we just walked about

like maybe a ten minute walk yeah what's it called it's called an Asian food

center okay yeah yeah so we decided to cap it off at ten but honestly we could

have brought over like fifteen acts because there is a huge selection of us

I'd say I'd say a hundred yeah you were being modest up here I mean we could

have brought a hundred snacks to show this we'll probably do more of these

it's basically a combination of savory and sweet Indian snack exactly we

decided we were gonna buy ten and like after the first two minutes of being the

store we already had eight in their cart I'm like oh you're gonna stop Audrey

we're gonna go through all the different aisles yeah that's just how much variety

there is but I can't wait to try everything and there are a few things

that I do recognize from her gift these trips to India and others that are

completely and new and foreign to me so you know fun trying what's the most

recognizable thing for you I think yeah let's say beer so we actually have

shared memory of yeah having this weird you so she ate this one I remember like

the overnight train ride and just like loading up on snacks exactly yeah so it

was almost almost always

every time we took a train riding idea we would get these chips there's a

joyful magic masala flavor yeah please yeah you pick them up at the train

station super cheap you can actually see the price here this one is 20 rupees and

you know what's interesting is that each country tends to have like its own ship

flavor like here in Canada it's all about the ketchup chips I'm pretty sure

you can't get it in the US just in Canada ketchup chips and an India masala

chips yeah but okay before we go through all the snacks I thought that we could

make ourselves a cup of tea because one of the things we bought is chai masala

chai and it's instant chai latte

that's great we've already boiled the kettle yeah we're good in that regard

ten in a box yours unsweetened it says zero sugar just I get water you have

spices cinnamon cardamon ginger clove and black pepper yes it contains milk

okay trouble opening this I feel like I'm going to need scissors unless you

can do it it might work good okay there we go

pour this into our cups yeah as such and we'll get some hot water I'm gonna smell

it oh man you smell good I smell the ginger

I saw I smelled a ginger and the cinnamon really well for your water he's

close why he doesn't trust me I've already knocked down the set we have we

have light behind us like the real one I tripped on the cord I almost knocked our

camera down man goodness that didn't fall but I knocked one of the light down

yeah I'm having a bit of a clumsy uncoordinated day

cheers Cheers tea time T time yeah it's a perfect time

oh the aromas are just sensational yes Wow and this reminds me of like

having chai when we're riding the trains as well it when you pull into a stop

them on board yeah it's better chai wallah tight

becoming through the you know down the aisle and we would drink like an

impressive amount of chai yeah by the time our train trip is over we called it

a stack of child amount o little paper cups a little bit our one on top of the

other yeah the leaning tower of China yeah Paul that's nice

and I like it I'm sweetened yeah me too good I mean typically when we've had it

in India has very City it has been Sweden but it gets flying on his own I

feel like we should start with something sweet perhaps some cookies since we've

already got the chai going you know started dunking them in sounds good what

do you think what about this why don't we start with this sure so this is make

Miata cookies for new Greek wheat cookies and it says it tastes even

better than it looked yeah zero trans fat and cholesterol what

comes to mind smells like spices yeah this mmm nice crunchy and buttery that's

my first impression of how I like these yeah they're not overly sweet I would I

would describe them being as like to have a little bit more of a buttery

taste yeah yeah then a sugary like buttery cookies and like perfect for tea

or coffee I would say perfect for dunking really who are we kidding like

this is what I want to be doing show us how it's done

I really like dudes like give me a nice cup of chai and a box of these cookies

these would have been great on that how they train right sup with our job it's

nice how the chai resets your palate yeah it's gonna be great as we continue

this tea we're gonna use it as our pellet cleanser guys

one down nine to go Oh what do you want to try Lays chips well let's go with it old

familiar favourite okay the chippies joyfull magic masala lays

I'm excited worthy I like leadership I like trying a new flavors and stuff but

so long we've had these so much that's gonna be like you just got written in

for the first time Oh some is awesome yeah it does memories yeah we

can we can we could be on a train you know one of my favorite train rides ever

was when we went from Delhi to jaisalmer what a journey that is super long

overnight uh-huh the scenery changes completely by the time you arrive in

jaisalmer desert desert oh yeah a magic masala oh and you know a

little bit of a burn in the back delayed on seven yeah yeah this is this is a

real deal it's authentic if you won't like it

it's basically an explosion of flavors and ingredients it's so good those

chippies feel like watching Netflix or something with you and for those of you

who have been watching the Indian series so far with Sam and David a few people

have asked where's Audrey why didn't Audrey go there she is

I'm here but honestly it was a boy's trip and these two guys planned it's so

last-minute well so quickly in all fairness David

had planned it well in advance but it was so nice of him to invite me on the

trip yeah I I think I got ready within just a few weeks ended up going with

David on that trip yeah it was awesome like we have so many more episodes to

come out what we're planning on doing actually is we're gonna be filming a lot

of videos together about India related content and we couldn't be in a better

location right now because Brampton has has a really big Indian population in

Canada and that means a lot of amazing Indian restaurant Indian markets like

the food here in Brampton is really good so we'll do some takeaways because

restaurants obviously aren't open at the moment to dine in we're also gonna

attempt trying some Indian cooking for the first time so yeah there's gonna be

a lot of Indian content which will involve not just me but you too

I'll be around but I have been to India before twice actually

so it's not like I skipped out on the whole trip and I haven't experienced it

my first trip I did to India was actually with my sister and we went for

a family friend's wedding yeah yeah also my boss it was like family what was your

job back then I was working at a cafe young this is before we met and I also

did a big trip to India before we met that was actually one of the one of the

best trips I've ever done and we're actually gonna be telling stories from

our past India trips I'll go I'll go more into that in another episode let's

do one more savory one how about these awesome so this is called spicy parm

spicy wheat flour chips you look like this they're kind of like squared ships

oh man good let's melt again the smell you know what was it smells a bit like a

samosa yeah thing yeah yes yes yeah I wonder if it's like the samosa dough and

it's just like the little pieces have been chopped and fried it could be if it

is please let us know cheers Cheers you know what it does it

tastes like the corners of a samosa all you need is a sauce green sauce red

sauce the spicy song yeah exactly okay so would go great with the Chinese

or even like a yogurt sauce because this has got a lot of spice like it packs

some punch yeah that's good so far I want to say like everything that's like

three out of three my turn to choose we're gonna be going for something real

sweet okay Indian fudge guys and this is cold

besan barfi but he said boy defeat its chickpea fudge Wow Wow super interesting

I've only ever had like milk lunch milk chocolate fudge this is like the real

deal like this is like thick fudge like this is heavy in the end and this was

the one thing that your mom was telling us she wanted to try them oh yeah yeah

the groceries sandwich showing her everything you got she was like yeah

she's like I had footage yeah we're not gonna eat the whole square and

guys let me tell you Sam love fudge like he is obsessed while you

eat I can share some embarrassing story right there there have been occasions

like we also have fudge here in Canada but it's like maple syrup flavored and

especially around the holiday time it's really popular and Sam has bought fudge

like whole bricks to give away as a gift and then he's eaten them all they didn't

make it they didn't make it through the recipient which is usually my favorites

yeah or my parents just never arrives they arrive it's like crawling it's nice

yeah it's very different from North American or UK style fudge I find the

texture a little bit it's a little bit lighter and more crumbly crumbly and

like almost a little bit grainy yeah not sandy because it's not drying I just

smoother texture than if I died on my house and you kind of have to look for

the chickpea flavor because I associate chickpeas with savory dishes I was gonna

taste like but it's it's like a little hint and the back you do taste the

chickpeas but sweet it's not it's not abundantly sweet though it's a subtle

sweetness isn't it which means you can eat more you can eat more funny like

honestly Sam see prolly make this disappear and one afternoon in one

sitting art are we kidding he's not gonna make it upstairs dear

parents that's really good that's very interesting this is actually my first

time trying something like this I like it why you - there's a lot of good

Indian sweets I mean remember on the trip I did with David we had some had

some amazing sweets in Kolkata that's gonna be an episode coming up and we

also had some really good sweets in a medevac ok it was our final stop you

know this also I feel like there's like a little hint of almond yes yeah yeah

like marzipan III get that almond marzipan kind of feel we're out of 4 we

don't win it when are we gonna find something we don't like

okay I'd like to try this one next it's another sweet the Shakkar Pare

what does it say it just says authentic Indian sweets lightly sugar-coated

crunchy squares you can see the the sugar granules covering it yeah this one

looks like it's gonna be very sweet you got that okay let me tell ya and a lot

of these are from the company we've got a couple things from Bikaneer Bikaneer sweet factory

years dr. air okay glance it reminds me of gnocchi the past I like that kind of

shape yeah like giant yogi but solid and

coated in sugar I can feel the feel the sugar yeah that one's quite sweet mm-hmm

it's not bready it's it's heavier than a bread in the middle that cool that goes

really well with joy yeah it would go well with China I'm trying to find

something to compare it to like the bready party yeah it's you like I'm just

enjoying it I'm drawing a blank yeah be honest dense too dense yeah yeah

the thing is if I had a choice between this and an Indian fudge I would go for

the Indian fudge for me I prefer when things are like sweet throughout with

this one I feel like it's a little like bland in the middle but then lots of

sugar coating it yeah so it's not quite even so I find it like too sugary when I

first bite into it yeah out of everything we've tried this I try ranked

this in last place but it's I still I still enjoy it I would still eat it

though that's yeah as I'm biting another one all right my turn

all right Bruce oh we've had sweets so let's go for the patty patty

so these are these are really like these are roasted

Makhana gorgon nuts Corrigan nut or fox nut we're gonna our peri peri I've never

heard of it come with peri peri seasoning series usually used for

chicken no like a spicy chicken seasoning yeah let's open it let's open

it so this one comes with a really easy to open care

it's also resealable - oh this is gonna be savory yeah you're gonna be sweet no

peri-peri yeah

I'm sure I'm sure I was trying to alternate up there the last one is

really really sweet it reminds me of corn you know like puffed rice no I like

the peri-peri seasoning this seasoning is great yeah it's a familiar texture to
