- Oof, whoa!
Whoa, whoa, no, no, no!
- Oh, uh-uh. (Jake laughing)
- Okay, let's hopefully end you on a sweet note.
- She's gonna end you.
(all laughing)
(sign creaking)
Hi, I'm Jake
- And I'm Jaboukie.
- And here today. (interviewer laughing)
- We are gonna try some. - British snacks.
- Some British snacks. - Here today.
- Here today. - This is an interesting one,
I haven't had this one since my childhood.
- What I will say off the top,
they actually filled this bag up.
- I actually think there's small packages in there.
- Wait, oh, my!
- And now there's nothing.
(interviewer laughing) - Okay, all right.
- Are we doing the YouTube channel like thing?
- Yeah. - "Like I opened it up.
Interesting, it's hard to open the top."
- Yeah. (laughing) - "I don't know why,
but there is a tear tab, but we didn't use it."
(vinyl record scratching) - Oh!
- Oh, wow, that can't be good for you.
(melodic upbeat music) (both crunching)
- Wow!
- Not my vibe.
Not my vibe.
- These are like Funyuns on steroids,
like these are powerful.
- It's actually not the flavor
I have a problem with necessarily,
it's more the flavor with the crunch,
that I have an issue with.
- How would you prefer it though?
- I just want some pickled onions,
I think just some straight up pickled onions.
- Yeah, it's a little delicate, I will say that,
it is like for a snack. - That's not a bad thing,
that's a beautiful thing. - No, I love that.
- [Interviewer] Let's move on to the next one.
They're gonna go on a sweet trail now.
- All right, Mr. Kipling.
- Oof, these are gonna be rough too.
Gonna go in easy, come out rough.
(Jaboukie laughing)
(melodic orchestral music)
- Ah!
Hm. - Do you wanna do a review-
- Oh, yes, yes, yes. - Of opening the packaging?
- This packaging here we have Mr. Kipling,
"Exceedingly good cakes."
(Jake laughing)
There's a nice weight to this.
I will say one thing that kind of scares me
is I don't like snacks that are like,
"It is just like your grandma made it."
- Do you wanna share? - Yeah, let's do that.
- But who's gonna get the cherry?
- [Jaboukie] Oh, I don't think that this is something,
that we can break actually. - Oh, you take that end.
- Okay, okay, all right.
(melodic orchestral music)
- I'm a marzipan fan, so I like this a lot.
- Yeah? - That's not me.
- I like this a lot. - That's all Jake.
- I love how you chucked the little fake cherry,
'cause I personally do not like the fake cherry.
- No, I'm not a big fake cherry fan.
- I'm not a fan. - Yeah, get it away from me.
- That's lovely, it's very nice.
- See, the frosting is a little too, I don't like that.
- He's wrong. - I don't like the grit.
- But with a cup of tea though.
- He's wrong, no, just alone as well.
(Jaboukie and interviewer laughing)
You're both wrong, I'm taking these back to America with me.
- All right, well, that's you, Mr. Kipling.
- You're more than welcome to take them back, Jake.
Yeah, let's go onto the next one,
as you might have smelt this when I walked in.
- I'm gonna give you the opportunity with this.
(Jaboukie laughing) - Yeah, do you know
what this is called? - No.
- This is a scotch egg.
(Jake laughing) - Rounded.
- Give it a little shake.
- So it has like a nice little ASMR sound,
when you jiggle the scotch eggs.
Can we get quiet in the room please?
- Oh, my. (rattle rattling)
- Okay, you sure you don't want some of this?
It's so good.
- I'm absolutely, completely, totally positive.
- All right.
(melodic upbeat music) (Jake laughing)
Why is there cinnamon in this?
- Exactly. - Cinnamon?
- Mm-hm, it's like cardamom or like something like nutmeggy.
- Well, I think they're better heated.
- Thanks a lot by the way.
(Jaboukie laughing) - Okay, sorry.
- "I bought you some cold scotch eggs."
(Jaboukie and interviewer laughing)
- It's gonna be enough for me.
I was really trying to think of something nice to say.
- You already know my verdict.
- Yeah. - Boiled egg.
- I do respect the feat of food engineering.
- What's next? - This is a great one.
Twiglets.
- Right, right, so sorry, so sorry.
So here we have,
(Twiglets rattling)
some Twiglets.
(melodic upbeat music) (Jaboukie laughing)
- I like that presentation.
Oh, geez.
- That's like when you get punched in the face right there.
that's the moment, wait, okay, is this normal?
- [Interviewer] No, I swear it's not normal.
- Is that like a fitness thing,
where you have to burn calories so it balances out?
(interviewer laughing)
(foil thudding) - Let's go.
- Whoa! Whoa, whoa, no, no, no!
I think that's not meant for human consumption.
(interviewer laughing)
- Oh, uh-uh. (Jake laughing)
No. - Yes.
- People for real eat this?
- Yeah, for real, I love them!
Like it's Marmite, love or hate thing, right?
- I don't know why I ate a second one,
I was like, surely this must have been a bad one.
- See, I've spent many years in the UK.
- Ugh! - I've worked peculiarly
many years in the UK and I know what I'm not gonna eat
and what I am gonna eat.
- Okay, let's hopefully end you on a sweet note.
- She's gonna end you. (all laughing)
You're close, you're close, but she's about to end you.
- Bring out the cyanide pill.
- I have a way with wording here.
- Oh yeah, yeah. - Jaffa Cakes?
- Yeah, yeah, these are good. - Yeah, these are good,
I promise. - Okay.
- No, here we go. - Wait, no,
I just showed you the ingredients, hold on, Jaffa Cakes.
(Jaffa Cakes thudding)
That was a nice little sound.
- There's a whole debate with these
of whether they're a biscuit or a cake.
- It's such a nice texture, you know.
- Ooh! (Jake laughing)
- Oh! - That's nice.
- Okay, I could see why there would be a debate.
- Yeah. (mellow melodic music)
- Well, that's lovely.
- It is nice and lovely. - But now you've tried it,
like what do you think, do you think it's a cake
or a biscuit? - It's a bake.
- This is crazy because the layers.
- Can you zoom in on this, can you zoom in on this?
- Now, if you can see there's like-
- This, this. - Yeah.
(both laughing)
So if you can see the layers, there's like the cake
and then there's like some sort of jam.
- Yeah, that's a great observation by the way.
- And some like chocolate right there.
Name a cookie that has layers.
- Oh, there are plenty of them.
- Like what? - Mallomars.
- I don't know what that is.
- I don't know what it is either.
- (sighing) Something is wrong with both of you then,
because Mallomars are fantastic.
- So overall verdict? - Like.
- I'm an orange and chocolate fan.
- Same. - Like my favorite ice cream
is like sherbet with chocolate on top of it.
- That's so chaotic. - Ooh!
- So with that, we'll sign off on "Great British Snacks"
with BuzzFeed UK.
- Thank you. (all laughing)
I feel like Jaboukie, you're traumatized from this snack.
- [Jaboukie] I am.
