Hi ! I'm PL Cloutier. Today, I'm with...
Andrew Grey.
What are we doing today Andrew "Grgrey" ?
I usually call you Andrea. I don't know why now I'm calling you "Andrew Gay" ?
Grey !
Oh my god, you're channel is complicated.
How do you want me to call you ?
"Andrew" is good.
Andrew.
Yes !
What are we doing today Andrew ?
We taste French products.
Yes.
Andrew is on vacation in Quebec and I asked him to bring products from his region.
and I think he was hungry on the plane because he kind of opened all the packagings.
I was hungry.
It's kind of ruining the video where we taste these products because he already tasted all of them in the plane.
So we went and bought many imported products from France in a shop in Montreal
Are there some things you never tasted before ?
Yes, this.
They are mackerel fillets from the brandname "Soupiquet".
What is the use to test French products if not while drinking a good...
glass of wine.
Yeaaaah !
Yeaaah !
Cheers !
Mmmm ! A good French wine.
Mmm !
It's dry.
Good ! I suggest that we start with this one. I think it looks like "Quick".
Yes, that's what it is. "Nest Quick"
It's called "Banania", the good balanced breakfast.
It can't be that healthy. How does it work ?
Well, you pour some milk in a bowl and you add three tablespoons of powder
then you stir. It results in a chocolate drink.
Ugh ! It doesn't dissolve. It's still full of clumps.
Here we go with the first test with the Banania.
I like it.
Well, first, I don't taste the banana flavor and the fact that there are so many clots remaining on top
is killing my pleasure.
I'll try to make one much stronger to make sure we taste it properly.
Wow ! It looks so healthy. It really looks like a good balanced breakfast.
I don't like the aftertaste.
But seriously, if I were to be blindfolded, I couldn't tell the difference between this and Quick.
I have this aftertaste, like a hint of chocolate. But it's not good.
So that was the Banania. Let's move on to the next product.
Mmm !
It's called "Netto Gingerbread with Melted Honey ".
There... Ha ! Ha! Ha ! What the heck ? How come it broke evenly ?
You don't eat it like that...
But how come... Oh ! It's because it's cut in half... No, it's pre-cut.
Bon appétit !
Ugh! Ugh !
I'm not vomitting.
Oh no ?
I could acquire a taste for it, no kidding.
Ugh !
We could almost make a version of the Jenga with the pieces. Try to remove one without having the rest falling.
Wooow !
It's the gingerbread Jenga.
I still don't want any.
Ok, we'll move on to the next item.
This is a "Prince Taste of Chocolate". In schoolyards, that's what we all have as a snack during recess.
Ok.
On the bottom, there's a not-so-easy opening tab.
It's a good thing I have a Frenchman with me because I was going to totally distroy the wrapping.
They're are similar to Oreo cookies. You usually eat them just like that, but since we're famished brats.
we split it open and we first eat the wholesome part and we keep the chocolate for the end.
Huh ? Wait.
Since I like a good challenge, I'll make myself a double one with...
Oh yes !
...two chocolate parts.
I'll do the same.
Et voilà !
I just americanized the French cookie by overdosing the filling.
Go !
Mmm !
Even with the double filling, I find it dry.
It is dry.
But you can dip it in some milk.
Oh yes ! In my Banania.
Mmm !
My Banania turned into a chocolate fondue.
What a mess.
Eat some, eat some.
Was it....
Ah !
Was it good ?
Yeah, it's good.
Do I have something between my teeth ?
Yuck ! It's really disgusting.
Let's move on to our next product.
Yeah !
We just lost all of our credibility. Well, what was left of it.
The next product is : "Bonne Maman's Rasberry Tarts".
My god ! That goes directly to the butt !
Tarts.
For me...
Mmm ! That's good isn't it ?
In addition, the tart is kind of crunchy so it's like a crunchy cookie with a mellow rasberry centre.
My god I love it so much ! It's my new passion.
Send me a crate from France. My god ! So good. I can't decide if I want another one or not.
Because I know that after this, it's the fish.
Oh no !
Do you want another one ?
Yes.
I'll get it ready.
Yes. To change the taste.
Next item.
It's a mackerel fillet with white wine and aromatics.
What are "aromatics" ?
Added aromas like... herbs, seasonings...
I'm dubious.
It's a product of Bretagne.
We salute the Bretons !
Keep it up Bretons !
The "Bretons" I know best are the "Breton crackers"
Yes, very good.
Ugh !
Ugghh !
Oh no ! A whole lot of fish juice fell on my tart.
That's sucks.
It stinks.
I just got the wiff.
I don't want to eat that.
I'll go get some forks.
Ugghh !
It smells like... Ahhh !
Jesus, that's not enticing.
Oh my god ! Ahhh !
Oh no ! I dropped some on the gingerbread.
Oh no ! I'm dropping it everywhere.
Not on my tart !
Well geez !
A mackerel disaster.
Ahhh ! I just wanted to show you what it looked like.
Ugh ! This little fish probably traveled more than many people.
OK, I'm shutting up. I just want to get back to our rasberry cookies as quickly as possible.
Of all the products found in the French import shop, why would someone want to buy this ? How is it served ?
Why would someone want that ?
Oh my god, I can't keep it to close.
It really stinks.
Damn !
Ugghh !
Ok ? one, two, three...
Nooo ! No ! No ! I don't want to, I wasn't ready.
Ok.
One, two, three...
Nooo ! Ugghh ! My god I really don't feel like... Wait, I'll have a sip of wine, so then, I'll taste the wine
therefore masking the taste and after I'll take my rasberry tart.
I think it's better to not even chew it. It's better to swallow it directly.
One, two, three.
But...
It's really not as bad as I thought.
What ?
Are you ok ?
It's really lemony. It kind of masks the taste of shit.
Wait, we'll do a real taste test.
Kitty !
Do you want some ?
Even my cat doesn't want any. There's a problem.
I'll take my tart.
Maybe she doesn't drink wine.
It's really tastes like fish.
The blending of both makes it worse.
It's stinks. Put that away.
Ahhh !
Good, we have one product left.
That is typically French. It's "Michel et Augustin", things for aperitifs: cakes, cookies...
I kept it for last because in my opinion, by looking at the wrapping, it seems to be a top of the line product.
Hum, well...
It's rather expensive.
Yes, that's what I meant. So you're rich ?
Yes.
That looks really good. It looks like a little butter cookie filled with chocolate. "Milk chocolate with caramel center".
One, two, three.
It's like a Twix.
That's really good.
Yeah, it's good.
It's tasty.
It's really like a Twix or... I like it.
Mmm !
No kidding, it's delicious.
They could do some of those with mackerel fillets.
Ahh !
It's not with a caramel center, it's with a mackerel fillet center.
Still an aftertaste of mackerel.
Yes... when you said it hurt a bit.
Thank you to have eaten all the products we didn't taste.
Taste some anyways as a bonus.
Oh wait ! I'm curious to try this one.
The mini pizzas
They are "Minizza". These are not French...
Of course. We serve them with the aperitif.
It's like small crackers. Do you want one ?
Sure. I love them.
Minizza.
It doesn't blend well after the caramel cookies.
Good ! So I hope you enjoyed the video. If you already knew some of the products we tried, tell us which ones.
Tell us which one is your favorite.
And go check Andrew's channel.
We made a video to give you advices on coming-out.
Yes and it might not be just good advices. They have to be taken with a grain of salt.
Totally.
Ok.
Bye.
Are you sure you don't want a bit more of...
No, I'm fine. Thank you. I'm good. Leave me alone !
So you want to take the "escalator" to go "shopping" ?
I need new "baskets". I stepped on a "chewing"(gum).
Have you seen that "sweat"(shirt) ? It has style.
I would eat some "fast-food" before. Did you see there ? There's a "self"(service).
I would take some "nuggets".
It's not over yet. We'll do a test to see if Béatrice Picard wants some. Do you want some ? Eat some.
Stick it down her throat...
No, she's just smelling it. She doesn't want any. Poor baby. Ok, I'm setting you free.
It's ok. I won't force you to eat that.
Ok. Bye for real.
Bye.
