Assalam alykum hello guys hope you're having yourself a wonderful amazing
beautiful Saturday and the weekend today we're going to be trying some indonesian
snacks that i just picked up so all of this here we're gonna try some of
them and i'm gonna show you some of them because they're uncooked so stay tuned
we're gonna get started with that video in just a couple of minutes for those of
you who are new welcome to my channel i upload videos daily so please consider
subscribing to the channel and turning notification on so you're notified when
a new video is uploaded stay tuned guys we will be right back
welcome back guys so today I went to a local Indonesian store as was
suggested by some you guys it's not actually too far from my home
it's around like 10 to 15 minute drive and where I was today was like
around 7 minute so I ended up going to the store and I have the video up
so I'm going to put the link in the description you can check it out the
store is a little bit hidden there's not a lot of signage but when I went inside
I found a lot of goodies so I picked up quite a bit to try it out
and I share my reaction with you guys so these are the stuff that I picked up
from them and this actually I have bought from our local Walmart which is
Walmart that some of you might know it's just basically a big grocery store chain
there in America as well as Europe and Canada so they carry these in a pack off
I think is this pack of five and they're actually pretty they're pretty
inexpensive for this whole pack it is just a couple of dollars and it tastes really
really good actually I like it because it's not like other instant noodles this
is more of like a stir-fry and it's actually nice and spicy and
what caught my attention before I knew this was an Indonesian product
was like the little Halal sign so when I saw this I was like you know what I
gotta try then when I tried it it was actually really really good because they
don't make it the same way as you do with the traditional instant noodles you
actually kind of make it more of like a stir fry and it has like a little bit of
smoky smell to it and it's also spicy so I really really liked it and
I have a lot of these at home any time I need like a quick snack I
just make one of these so I just thought to share this with you guys for those of
you who for example maybe have not tried it before so you can get it from
Walmart in Canada not sure about States for example in Canada but you can also
find it in superstore or any lob laws chains so like I said they're not too
expensive so let's start with some of these snacks this one is called
Tic Tac snack it's chili flavor and I'm trying to see if there's any
English ingredients list there is actually here at the back so they got ingredients
tapioca starch garlic palm oil salt chilli powder flavor enhancers
artificial sweetener or aspartame contains sugar and artificial flavors
this is basically like a snack made out of tapioca and it's chili flavored I
guess maybe sweet - oh it looks deadly
look at this guys don't know if you guys can see it it's like really red
oh my goodness subhanallah when you smell the bag you smell the oil as well as like a
strong chili flavor so you know it's going to be spicy so I'm just going to start
with two
it's kind of like a little sweet and it's like crunchy maybe even like a
little bit like barbecued corn to some extent sometimes those are harder but
this is like much softer that as soon as you bite on it it just breaks it's not spicy
although it said chili flavor um I didn't find it spicy at all it has a good
mixture of flavor so it's a little sweet a little bit of like saltiness to it it
has like a flavor of chili for example maybe like paprika to some extent but
it's not spicy and it's nice and crunchy so if you want like those you know maybe
if you feel like having chips and you want to stay away from the oil this
would be definitely a good thing to try so let me put my noodles here so that
way I can rest these snacks on them as I open them the next one is the taro net
barbecue potato BBQ and the lady at graces grocery store she said this is
actually like a top seller or a lot of people enjoy this it's a really famous
snack so the ingredients is wheat flour vegetable oil tapioca starch as well
synthetic potato barbecue flavor it contains flavor enhancers as well as
sugar salt and baking powder there's not a lot of stuff in the front it says
taro net potato barbecue and I like the halal logo its really nice
I'm having a hard time guys opening this what is going on here this shouldn't
they have like a little area for tearing this
I was hoping it doesn't have to come down using my teeth
sometimes you have to do what you gotta do right okay so then you open it that
way you guys can see this is a cool a unique potato chips it has holes in them
kind of like curtains to some extent again when you smell it it gives you
like a oily smell as well as like some spices
although when you smell it you don't get that strong barbecue smell or flavor but
when you try it it does have that flavor and they're airy as in light like
it's not like big pieces of for example potato chips as soon as you bite on them
they basically kind of like melt at the same time it gives you that crunchiness
so they're they're really really light kind of like a
puff snack so although you take a couple pieces by the time you chew
them it turns really small because it's basically like puffed up that's right
like it had a light flavor it's not too strong for example like the barbecue
flavor or any of the spices so it's kind of nice because it doesn't get
overpowering and it's not spicy so you can continue to eat as much as you like
and I think you're not gonna feel bad too because I don't think has too much
calories in them too
per one bag it has 367 calories but it's not enough too bad in comparison to
for example some of the other stuff you find so let's try one of these
drinks this is a drink it's called puck Harum
pretty sure I'm butchering these names I'm sorry guys
its basically jasmine tea and it has ingredients it is water sugar jasmine tea
jasmine natural flavor stabilizers and that's basically about it so it's
basically a jasmine tea drink that also has a small little logo that says Halal
so let's try it out bismillah
has like a dark tea smell to it and you get that smell of the jasmine tea from
it - oh that's good that's good it's sweet but it's not too sweet so
per bottle it only has 18 grams of sugar basically half of what you would
find in a can of coke and the flavors are actually really really good
I like it I like it you know I like iced tea so this one actually is really
really good because it has that jasmine tea flavor and has enough sweetness
sometimes you know some drinks for example they put too much sugar so you
have one sip and you don't want to drink anymore where with this it's balanced it
has the right amount of sweetness so you can continue for example to finish the
bottle without getting over-powered with all that sugar see what else we
have since we only got one more chips I think I'm going to try one of these
other drinks let's try this one this one I think it's called Lebotol
trying to see if I can find ingredients ingredients water sugar and jasmine tea
so this is also a jasmine tea drink and sugar this one has 15 grams of sugar per
bottle and check out this little halal logo on the side which is really really
cool it excites me you know when I see the halal logo because you know for
instance we live in a non-muslim country so anytime you see a halal logo we are like
oh wow there's a food item that I could try
Bismillah
this is a little bit less sweet so since it has 15 grams of sugar and I think
the size of it is 200 ml where this one what is the size 240 ml there's only 40 ml
difference between them and the bigger one has 18 grams the smaller one has 15
- there is three grams of sugar for the missing 40 milliliter of drink and with
this the flavor of the tea is little stronger it has like an
aftertaste to it
if I had to pick between the two this one is more flavorful a little bit more
sweeter and it doesn't give you that strong aftertaste so so-far my favorite
drink is that one this is not bad - and last but not least we got another
jasmine tea drink and this one it says 50% more and it has water sugar jasmine
tea as well as vitamin C and it has this one is 300 mil so it's 50ml bigger then
that actually these two no this is 240 ml and sorry this is
not 200 this is 250 ml so it actually has more and less sugar and that's why
because the sweetness is a little bit less this is 200 ml and sugar wise
its more 26 I think this is going to be sweeter than both of those drinks I'll
just give it a try bismillah okay and this one also has a halal
little logo here on the side okay
Its a little sweeter but with this you don't get that the flavor of jasmine tea here this
has a stronger taste to it so you get like a stronger tea taste but
it's not for example Jasmine where here you get less this one I think has the
perfect amount of sugar as well as a perfect amount of flavor so I think this
has to take it that's the best one so far and that one's actually my favorite
last but not least we've got the cazuca cassava chips so this has cassava
palm oil sweet corn seasoning powder natural flavor natural sweetener sugar
and salt and how big is this has 180 grams per 20 gram it has 1 gram of sugar
and 45 calories who's counting right lets try it
this one was easier to open
check this out guys with this you get more stronger smell
of chips you know I have tried cassava chips in the past but it's not it wasn't
like this one they actually has like a flavor
of corn to it too so it feels like you're eating corn but it's basically
the cassava chips
it has a sweetness to it but then its also salty too so it's kind of nice cause
you get sweetness get saltiness and then you have the cassava as well as the corn
so its a couple of things all in once okay wash it down with my favorite drink
this is the best one I know what I'm gonna be drinking inshallah when I come to
Indonesia saved the best for the end this is selamat double chocolate wafer
what does it have It has sugar wheat flour vegetable oil cocoa powder ten
percent of cocoa powder skim milk powder salt rising agent and synthetic vanilla
flavor okay so per 30 grams it has 11 grams
of sugar so in here too - in the corner we can see it has the Halal logo
so for any of you that are looking for halal stuff here in Vancouver check
em out auntie graces indonesian grocery store
they're close to oak and 70th just under the bridge
just google it if you can't find it message me on Instagram or Facebook and
I'll send you the address you know what just to save it I'm gonna
put the address in the description I want to put it down here - so just gonna
save you time you don't have to message me you don't have to wait for me if you
watch this video you know where to go
wow so when you open it you can see this basically dark chocolate wafers
and it has like a smell of cocoa powder really light
that's good guys the outside is crispy the inside is actually soft there's a
lot of filling in it and it has the right amount of sweetness so it's a
little bit more like on a sweetest side and but again this is a cookie and if
you're having it with tea non sweetened tea this is perfect
because you can just wash it down with the tea and that it's
gonna work really really well with tea a
my favourite drink
and I'll show you guys the last item and this is the sweet soy sauce so this is
used for the fried rice as well as for example nasi goreng they just put a
little bit and basically you cook it or mix it as an ingredient so this I can't
try because it's a sauce and we couldn't try the noodle because I need to
prepare those so inshallah one day if I make the noodle as well as the fried
rice or nasi goreng and use this ingredient then inshallah will share that
with you guys too thank you very much guys for staying with me until the end
