- So you might notice that there's a lot of food

Brent and I are going to try some of this food

and you might recognize some of this food.

None of this food is from Canada or the United States.

It's all from different countries around the world.

Maybe some of this is from one of your countries.

you are going to learn how to describe food,

and we're gonna have a lot of fun tasting it.

- Yes, and this is part one of two videos.

and you can go watch it right after this one.

The first thing we're going to try are these

- Yeah, please don't get mad at us if we mispronounce

You wanna try one first? - Sure. Thank you.

And I will actually be in Colombia in a few months.

If I was gonna describe these, they are crunchy.

We might say in English, there's a hint of sweetness.

but maybe in North America we eat too much sugar.

So stuff with a normal amount of sugar doesn't taste sweet.

- These remind me a little bit of potato chips.

But where potato chips are definitely unhealthy

and you can feel the grease as you are eating them.

These seem like a healthy version of potato chips.

- Yes, definitely, and it even says on the package

So that's the word I would pick above all,

So this next food item is from the United Arab Emirates,

and in Canada we would call these Cheezies.

- Cheese curls. Yeah, and it looks pretty yummy.

I do wanna mention before we taste these though,

we will be talking with food in our mouth occasionally,

and for the sake of time, we're gonna try

and do that as little as possible but it will still happen.

- Talking and eating are often difficult to do.

- Yeah, it's a tube. I wasn't expecting that.

than the cheese curls I eat in the United States.

but they're definitely crunchy as well, crispy, crunchy.

But I would say cheesy is the best word to describe these.

- Absolutely. They got a little bit of a bite too.

So this next food item is called Choco Pie,

It's like a little chocolate cookie or cake.

but we can describe this crinkly wrapper.

- I was trying to be quiet while you were talking

So in English, when you really love something,

Tasty. Again, not as sweet as I was expecting.

- I think again, as North Americans we have a sweet tooth

and this is less sugar than we're used to.

I thought the wafers inside and the filling,

that's what's inside, I think is marshmallow, it is tasty.
