Pro Chefs Blindly Taste Test Snacks | Test Kitchen Talks | Bon Appétit

You are going to try international sandwiches. First of all, I have to buy something. I don't believe in

snacks

. I don't need

snacks

from a bag, so just so you know, all of these different bags are recyclable, like in the meme. the beautiful name of mine you have me doing mental calculations to figure out what snacks are in front of us we are going to go dark what is this a Chris Morales show you have to tell us the labor and the country of origin Oh

taste

, the

taste

is good, it's okay it's close, I came out, ha, it's the size and shape of a potato chip, yes, this feels like a potato chip.

I don't feel frilly, nice, it's not that soft. Oh, it smells sweet, it smells like maple. Sugary brown, it has a caramel-like aroma. I have a very serious unsolved case that was unclear, it smells like well buttered hand pies, caramel, corn, caramel, maple, oh that's fake maple. I know it's because we just made jelly beans, it almost smells like jelly beans, it smells like a bag, okay? Oh, something like that. artificial cake mix 5 doesn't taste that much like potato, although that's all we have, it's a type of potato, but the taste is like maple butter, it's sweet and salty, it's kind of cinnamon barbecue.

I know you like maple butter or honey butter, gross. Pancake flavored potato chips is something you are not far from knowing, to me it tastes like caramel, I have no idea, no, caramel corn. I guess America brought us this shoddy delight. Canada they love maple syrup there, no. I think I liked the Canadian. No, that wouldn't make sense. I'm going to say South Korea or something with five spice. Oh yeah, maybe I don't know. No offense. Oh, I know exactly what it is. They are honey butter. chips so South Korea I'm going to go with honey butter chips.

I think these are the Korean butter and honey chips, honey, I would say China or Japan, this is going to be a great opportunity and if it's wrong, I'll look like an idiot, but these Korean chips that are butter and honey chips, the same kind of plastic card you can recycle, it was too heavy for a snack, still smell the bag, yeah I have someone to play with, I guess I can make the dish now hmm. Oh, snack mix situation, oh. Okay, this is very interesting, oh wow, lots of little things, what are these? I'm supposed to have a lot of these, definitely covered in some kind of seasoning, a little greasy, this feels like trail mix, some flaky stuff like. crunchy things like chopped mint Chex Mix, you have thicker pieces, this breaks easily, definitely, some different things in here, like we have long pretzel things with cookies, some little nutty things, oh wow, just threw in some spice, but not too much, almost like a sweet onion flavor at first, what don't you have cilantro?

It definitely sounds like a bit of chili powder to you. There is a little heat like throat heat. Oh, definitely spicy. Oh, much spicier, like I would say green chili or red chili almost like. Kind of a curry situation but without turmeric. I don't get anything, right, coriander, cumin, I taste a little bit of chili, I don't know. Now I'm confused, wait, oh my god, this is numb, enthusiastic, this is from India, this is holy roms numb. Kyun Numb Keen is basically a fried snack and is often made from chickpea flour. Sometimes fried lentils are formed into different shapes, fried with spices and then presented in the form of savory snacks for your enjoyment.

I mean like a chaat masala, something like that. India is my country tastes like masala, so I'm going to say it's an Indian snack. I don't know, it just tastes like curry powder. garam masala I love all the textures, although it is super fun. India, it is actually very tasty, almost like vadouvan has. too much turmeric, although I don't think it's Yvonne, but some type of curry you guys would probably go with Indian, so I'm going to use Indian corn served from India, which is an Indian spice. I don't remember the name at the moment. sesame sticks as shot topping as Indian snack mix must masala mix feels like those rice crackers mixed together almost or something okay oh that's a nut that's a peanut oh I know this is just from the nut Jonna Choi from the India oh no they are Wait Iran what is it?

What is this off-brand? I'm numb because everyone bought Mirch Masala huh. I love this brand and I love this snack. It's like Chex Mix. Indian Chex Mix and it is much more delicious. I may not know about cured meats, but I do. snack, can I just play with it? They feel like crunchy little balls. Okay, they feel like Hicks, like they're puffy balloon things. I hope it is recyclable. Okay, so definitely a little Airy super crunchy has the size and dimension of a cheese ball. it's a little smaller something is ringing inside this menu hello it's like marble this smells like an old house hmm Oh, a different flavor is coming now oh, it's one of those peanut butter things with seaweed ate shrimp aren't you buttery like those flaky shrimp chips but then as you keep chewing it there's a little bit of a nutty flavor so I guess this is some East Asian thing that tastes musty, the first bite tastes like soup and then there's something of sweetness like in diet coke, like you bite really fake. in it and then it becomes very dense in the mouth.

I don't really like this bitterness like a mocha, cinnamon, coffee, malty, a little far away. I'm so bad at this, this is all I'm not good at, right? bordering on humiliation here guys I'm going to say this is maybe I have no idea what this job is this tastes like a shrimp flavored ball so not somewhere on the Asian continent that's it I think That's all I have for you. This is like a sweet peanut, not sweet, Japanese peas, except they're disgusting, that's what it tastes like. I think it's Japanese. I have a dried shrimp taste.

Did you know? I change it. I think he's Chinese, no, no, from South America, no. I don't choose any South American flavors here there's a coke and I have a hot chocolate: angel, I feel like I'm ending up with some peanut vibes no, I can't, I can't, I have no guesses on that, maybe it's a Peanut Soy and shrimp, not puff pastry ball and that's the brand name and I think it's from Japan, maybe like shrimp. I'm getting some kind of pasty fish sauce with dashi shrimp. Eve Eyeb, so I'll say Japan for this. I'll call it seaweed. and I will say that it is definitely not an American snack.

I don't know, I'll choose Japan. I just hope one of them is Japanese, so what's the name of this one. I feel like I've tried them in Japanese snack shops. so I want to say it's from Japan. I'm going to go off the rails here and say poppy and peanut rice buns. The final answer was squid, mother squid. Okay, another form of potato and essence. A thin chip, not a layer, definitely not, it's too imperfect to be. a lie this feels like those tapioca starch crackers or powdered rice crackers on the outside right now that potato ribbon no you wouldn't do that I'm trying to think how you think they're freaking out Troy, give me here, oh Well, smell it citric acid vinegar powder, maybe b- the salt almost smells like garlic, like there is definitely vinegar powder, it smells more like salt and vinegar, these raffles, it smells like nothing, but it's like being a little hot, this it is my favorite.

I love solving your fries, oh, but it's also like onion, here are dehydrated onions because it tastes like soup. I know that soup, that fake soup, also has vinegar or citric acid in it, it's so good. Extreme caramelized onion flavor. I don't want to. Saying it's sour cream and onion, is this like a known flavor? If it comes to mind, Oh, barbecue or ranch comes to mind. I call this salt and vinegar England, no salt and vinegar chips, that's the UK. I feel like this is American Sour Cream and UK Onion Malt Vinegar Chips tastes like there is some vinegar in it, maybe, but I have no idea what it is.

I know, I don't want to start throwing countries around and get into trouble. Vinegar, maybe it's from Germany, no. I know for me it's like salt and vinegar and American caramelized onions. It could be like a Lay's variety of pickled onion, vinegar and pickled onion. Do I understand I said salt and vinegar and onion and pickles? Pickled onions are salt vinegar. and onions, that's a pickle, onions, they like vinegar, onion chips, it's not a house thing, it pronounces the onion flavor, it doesn't look like this is from the US, maybe Australian, something in white, onion, vinegar chips, Mickey, go first of all, hate. vinegar chips this is not pleasant for me as it tastes like a pickle, a kind of American pickle, potato chips, ah, onion, sorry this is a salt and vinegar crunch with a little onion powder when really you know what the flavor is. all of a sudden you're like, oh yeah, that's a pickled onion, but when you can't see it, I would never have guessed it was an onion, this is a pretty strong bet, like there's some weight to it, my God, almost no, no.

Romo feels like a potato stick or a pretzel stick, hello. no it's not a cheeto, it's too crunchy to be a cheeto so it's not as spicy as a hot chili corn cheeto, oh I know what this is. I know what this is. I can tell you what it is without even trying it, this is nothing Claire has ever made Hi everyone, I'm Claire, I'm in the v8s

kitchen

Garvey, a sonorous. talkie these donkeys are loud little taquitos plague Otaki from Mexico from Mexico from Mexico Mexico Mexico I'm sorry my Mexican friends I love them but I don't like this is happy from Mexico I think the jockeys are America that's true hey Nightwing what did I win?

I love these. I feel like the best thing you can do when traveling to the country is go to the grocery store and the packaged snack aisle. I love buying various chips, snacks and things from different countries and looking at the packaging, yes. What a bunch of squid, how lucky, thank you, this is an honor.
