alrighty guys good morning everyone welcome to a  new video today we're with my dad daniel samuel  

you already know him and we are going to  be doing an argentine snacks taste test  

Adverbs of degree

so we received a very special box this isn't  sponsored or anything we just got a gift they  

just sent it they just sent it so it's a company  called stokyard.me we'll put the address there  

and they specialize in sending argentine snacks  cookies chocolates all over the world you receive  

it in 72 hours to your doorstep and this box  arrived just before we went away on our little  

cottage getaway so we we brought this along with  us so the nice thing about this is we haven't been  

to argentina in a couple years and we've been  craving some of the flavors from down there so  

this is a very exciting moment i think it's going  to be a combination of sweet and savory items  

yes and all the childhood sweets that we used  to have when we were kids i don't know and  

another thing given the fact that it's a minus  38 celsius outside yeah uh there are two things  

that you feel like having when it's this cold  one is grease the body asks for like a butter  

fried bacon things like that and and the  other one is sweet stuff so what better  

moment than this one when it's like -38 outside  and we have a box full of sweets and chocolates  

to dig in you know yeah if not now then when  right you don't know what and how our field right  

exactly so we open so we're gonna dig in i'm  to pick up the camera and let's get a close up

look at that see that one what's in there okay  what are you doing these things sealed well huh

wow we got a huge assortment of  candy here look we've got the  

all kinds of different alfajores the triple  version milka we have look at this is the taron  

really tasty different candies chocolates sweets  all the sugar in the world right in front of us  

that's all that's all you need that's all i  need and i like that you get a lot of the same  

product but like in different brands yeah you  know like for example the alfajores there's a  

whole bunch of different brands my goodness  they were generous with all the variety

that's that's good too i've never tried that and  that's just the candy box i've never had this  

either so quite a few that we haven't had it over  half i've never tried even when we were traveling  

in urgent yeah good variety that's a stage one  yeah page one so this is uh this is your favorite  

one huh that's my favorite one if you do this is  how we got through those long bus rides you know  

yeah you try those cookies and you cannot stop  okay yes that's it go to the literature yeah yeah

those are like kind of like smarties or  something yeah oh ho ho ho ho havana okay  

this is a major words now one of the best brands  of alfajores from argentina yeah easily easily  

we're not allowed to come home without a box  yeah we get locked out of the house you find  

them at the airport they're duty-free you have  the chocolate covered one and you have the other  

one that is what like a meringue or something  with like sugar sugar white sugar icing sugar  

there are two varieties of this oh  these are cookies with a lemon inside  

this is a a dessert typical of argentina and also  uruguay it's a it's a sweet made out of a sweet  

potato with a chocolate and you eat this with um  a cheese like let's say like a hummingbird or a  

uh like a soft creamy like a brie quick  easy delicious dessert yeah i love it it's  

uh it's a dessert that is called  uh when in argentina they call it  

you know yeah so you got a million calories  in here right and we're gonna shovel uh a path  

from here to to toronto you know we're going  to go all the way to hudson bay to burn all  

these calories and we eat all of these eh yeah  okay so we're going to try our first thing here  

which one you want let's start with the classic  that's like the best known snack in all of  

argentina it's kind of like a cookie double or  triple stacked let's try the milka we'll try  

mika so this is a three layered cookie  covered in chocolate and it's got some sort of  

special filling the filling should always be due  to the lecture we're cutting it into little bites  

so we don't overdo it we just want to savor a  little there we go that's a nice dense one guys  

yes we've had good luck with milka products before  so i'm excited for this one pure chocolate i think

that's outstanding a really good  alpha or yeah it's dense but it's also  

i like this one it's not as dry as the other  ones you know it's very soft and uh moist so  

this is what that product looks like right here  the little cow purple packaging pretty iconic

so now we are going to try a product that it  doesn't have a name in english it's called turon  

in spanish and in english there's a couple  different flavors yes there are different  

varieties but basically it's a very chewy sugary  almost like a toffee let me show you what the two  

different kinds look like so there's one that's  kind of like a bar so one is a wafer wafer and bar  

i believe that they are from uh spanish from  spain and origin yes that's uh it became a  

tradition in latin america because the spaniards  they brought it uh into the culture right yeah  

and this is a christmasy one so you've got that  candied fruit and also chunks of peanuts yeah  

spoiler alert i tried that that's my favorite  so these are more like the honeycomb ones  

these ones are the ones that we used to buy  when we were kids and we used to go to the  

movies before the movie started this guy came  into the you know where people were sitting  

waiting for the movie to start with a little box  in front hanging from his neck and he was selling  

this to ron and candies and chocolates sugar  galore time to have a little bit of salt here  

let's try this mini mini biscuits yeah made out  with a lard this is salty and this is a special  

thing when you're having a glass of wine or having  a beer or something like that this is the uh  

would be like almost like a like chips so these  are called biscochito salados or salty biscuits  

and they're really one biters and they're made  with lard they're salty very tasty little snack if  

you drink mate you can be sipping on your mate on  your gourd and have a little something salty with  

it you were mentioning it would go great with the  beer too yeah they only brought me once you start  

you don't stop okay so i say we try a little  bit of candy next so these are called gotitas  

de amor which means little drops of love so would  you like to open this they're like little drops  

yeah like these are hard candies they're like  lozenges no what do you call those hard candies  

sugar lozenge very very hard and you cannot  even crack them yeah don't try biting into them  

unless you want to book an appointment with the  dentist yeah okay so for our next snack we are  

trying these peanuts covered in sugar and this  is actually a really popular street food snack  

yeah you can see it being made on the streets  and like this copper pan or a copper kettle  

it's so distinct you can smell it from a block  away yes you smell this wonderful aroma the smell  

of nuts and sugar mixing in the air it leads  you follow your nose you follow your nose and  

you get distracted by your original plants  yeah so so that's what we are trying next  

gotta eat them slowly because they're they're  very crunchy okay we are starting to really  

fill up on these snacks um but we're  gonna try to keep going for a couple more  

right now we've got this cheese with salami  so this is a soft creamy spreadable cheese  

so we grab a few crackers from the kitchen  and we're gonna open this up okay so we are  

continuing with our next product it is a cheese  and we're gonna be spreading it on a few different  

crackers they sent us all types of cheese like  here we have the gruyere we've got fontina  

and obviously the the salami one so we'll be  trying that next i'm excited for this look  

at that i'll take a bit less cheese right on a  little less nice and thick go big or go home right  

he's small that's like the ultimate you know snack  it's almost thicker than a cream cheese you know  

but it has a such a strong flavor yeah of a salami  it's great i'm just like a cream cheese but with  

like a smokiness to it perfect for crackers  perfect for baguette you know if you're cooking  

something that's going to take a long time to  prepare and start eating this and it'll tide  

you over until until the main event okay so right  now sam is trying a chocolate bar that is called  

dos corazones it means two hearts and the special  thing about this chocolate is that it comes with  

a little poem inside it comes with poetry it's  chocolate and poetry i read it in spanish but i  

had no idea what it meant so it says when you pass  by my side uh many times i don't even look at you  

but you can't imagine the love that i feel inside  and how i sigh for you there you go something like  

that so you get perfect chocolate to give on a  date right and then the other thing i tried just  

a moment ago was uh was this banana chocolate  tulka banana banana and it has a banana mousse  

or like a banana flavored filling yeah i like that  one quite a bit and yeah there's nothing i've had
