Hey, what's up everyone? It's Cory here. I am in my Airbnb. Rright next door is a 7-11 and so I went there
00:04
right after I checked into this Airbnb.
00:11
And I just bought a bunch of like weird things that I've never seen before.
00:13
And I thought maybe you guys would be interested in seeing what kind of strange things are being sold.
00:17
So this is a Bangkok 7-eleven snack food taste test.
00:22
Alright one of the first things
00:31
I want to try is this thing called Shots and that's pretty much the only English on it.
00:33
It looks like sour cream and onion, but I'm not sure what the puffs are. Let's go ahead and check it out.
00:39
There's a little picture on the back that says Shots, and it looks like the character is doing like this.
00:44
So I guess this is meant to be just like a quick like grab-and-go snack.
00:49
Yeah, it smells like sour cream and onion and
00:55
it is like a little corn puff. Yeah, it looks like a Cheeto almost. Let's go ahead and try these.
01:01
It's just like cheese puffs, I don't even really taste the sour cream and onion.
01:10
It literally tastes like those round cheese puffs back in the States.
01:16
Let's see how well it handles with this like shot motion that it's suggesting on the back
01:21
Yeah, it works alright. And the next thing is, I don't know what this says in Thai,
01:29
but in the English it says "Extreme barbecue flavor."
01:34
Yeah, so same kind of similar packaging as that other one. Let's go ahead and open it up.
01:39
Oh my god, these things are so tiny.
01:45
It reminds me of like little macaroni, they're these little rings.
01:49
They taste like normal potato chips, I know this sounds really like boring, but it does taste just like a normal
01:58
like Frito-Lay potato chip, they're just in like these little mini bite-sized rings.
02:05
And this is probably the first time I'm eating junk food this year. I normally don't eat this kind of stuff.
02:12
Oh, yeah, taste the preservatives...Mmmm and all those chemicals.
02:18
There's a reason I don't eat this stuff.
02:24
But I'm just doing this for science, for YouTube, and for you guys. (Please Subscribe!^^)
02:25
Alright this next thing here is called a corn filled pie.
02:29
And it looks like an apple pie from McDonald's or something.
02:33
But it says corn filled, there were other flavors, there were like some kind of sweet varieties like strawberry and pineapple.
02:38
But corn filled pie kind of caught my attention and on the back it does say
02:43
"36% of this is creamy corn filling."
02:50
And it doesn't say I need to nuke this or anything so you can pretty much eat this at room temperature.
02:52
Let's take a look at this guy.
03:00
That is so weird, there's actually pieces of corn in there with the like buttery cream. It's okay.
03:06
I think I probably would prefer the pineapple or the strawberry one.
03:13
But now this makes me want to go and get corn soup. That snack is actually a little bit filling.
03:17
And it's a little bit salty, like subtly salty, enough that I'm actually kind of thirsty.
03:21
So I'm gonna go ahead and open up one of these two mushroom drinks.
03:27
Let's go with the black jelly mushroom beverage. It's a little bit heavy because I believe the bottle is made of glass.
03:31
Yeah, we can see it in there with this gold lid. I'm gonna shake this sucker up.
03:39
I like black jelly, they sell black jelly all over Asia. I grew up with it in Japan. They sell it in Korea.
03:45
They're huge on it in Vietnam.
03:51
So I'm just gonna remove the label because the glass is clear that way you guys can see what the inside looks like and
03:53
let me use my flashlight, so you can see the actual
03:59
Awwww. It didn't make a pop sound, I like that pop sound.
04:07
Smells kind of sweet, like very subtly sweet, okay, let's try this out up close.
04:12
Did you see that that slimey-ness?
04:22
All right since I got my thirst fixed,
04:25
there is something here that I saw that was interesting and it's watermelon seeds.
04:28
Now, I know you can eat the seeds of like pretty much anything like pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds, but I've never actually seen
04:33
seen watermelon seeds.
04:40
I know there's probably a lot of people out there who are gonna be like what, how have you not seen watermelon seeds?
04:41
So to me this is new and I'm gonna try it out.
04:48
Smells like pumpkin seeds, actually. You know, you can see it's actually pretty big.
04:53
Hmm it's a bit tougher than pumpkin seeds, but not bad.
05:02
These are good as like Anju, like this would go well with beer or like soju or something.
05:08
Okay, and the next thing that I really am looking forward to trying is this super sour tamarind.
05:18
And it's 93% tamarind, 3% sugar, 3%, Iodized salt, and1% chilli.
05:23
And so I'm assuming this is gonna be like kind of spicy, but also really sour. I don't know. Let's crack the seal.
05:29
You can you see that it's covered in salt and
05:43
sugar, and it smells really good like that is awesome. I love dried fruit, like dried mangoes.
05:47
This smells like dried mangoes.
05:53
It's good, but it's.... it's sour and a little bit spicy.
06:04
There's like a spice that kicks in right away, and then it immediately goes to sweet and like slightly sour.
06:13
Well, it's really good, like this is actually very
06:21
addicting. I feel like I'm eating like candied ginger, it almost has that same
06:24
spice level as ginger. All right this next thing is very interesting. It caught my eye.
06:29
It says "Pandan custard topping sliced bread."
06:34
Okay, so I'm on Wikipedia cause I had to find out what is pandan. It says it's a tropical plant and
06:41
it's widely used in South Asia and Southeast Asian cooking as a flavoring. So apparently the pandan is medicinal.
06:48
It's also good as an air freshener, the leaves can be dried and used to weave baskets.
06:55
It's a very like versatile plant. Bbut let's open this up and try it out. I think this is gonna be a little bit messy.
07:00
Trying to open this and not get it on my fingers.
07:07
So it had this plastic covering that like kept the custard from smearing against the inside of the plastic. Check this out guys.
07:11
It looks like a some kind of like a green slime butter spread, but it actually smells really good.
07:18
It almost reminds me of like just normal custard.
07:29
Sounds so lame. It reminds me of some kind of like a melon slash custard.
07:34
Okay, I'm thirsty again because of the breading and stuff.
07:42
Let's try out this.
07:46
Fruit drink or nut drink? I don't know what this is. It's called Bael fruit drink.
07:48
I've never seen this fruit before. Shake it up real good.
07:54
Little juice box. Alright let's go.
07:59
Wow, that's really interesting, at first it tasted just like water, like there was no flavor and then suddenly there was this like intense
08:08
sweetness. It kind of reminds me of like coconut water, but not a coconut flavor. It's more of like a cinnamon flavor.
08:15
But subtle, subtle cinnamon. Okay next we got this
08:24
banana cream chocolate cake sandwich, it just looked so weird that I had to get it.
08:28
All right, comes in a little like tray.
08:36
And it looks like a brownie, it literally looks like a brownie with the crusts cut off.
08:38
You can see here's the sandwich itself. Oh my god....
08:45
It's so weird that the texture is so smooth up here. It's not like bread. What is that?
08:49
That's so weird. Let's take a look at the filling.
08:55
Oh yeah, that looks gross.
09:01
It looks like some goop.
09:03
Goop spread in there as the bread is breaking apart. Oh, no! All right. Let's eat this before it falls apart in my hand.
09:06
I feel like I'm eating sponge cake with a banana custard filling.
09:13
It's not like a brownie, not bad. It's not bad.
09:22
With the banana cream, it like kind of helps moisturize the dryness of the sponge cake texture.
09:27
That's cool. Would I ever do it again?
09:34
There's probably better food out there.
09:37
Let's dip into this other sandwich over here. This is the shredded pork with salad cream sandwich.
09:41
You can see the crust cut off, but you can see the inside. It's got like that pork floss very fine,
09:47
finely grained pork floss in there, so that's kind of cool.
09:54
I just smelled bread. I don't smell the pork floss, and I definitely don't smell that like salad cream or whatever.
09:59
Let's try this out. Where do I bite from?
10:05
That salad cream is actually like sweet and salty together.
10:17
And then the pork floss is salty by itself, so it's like kind of salty, but with like a hint of sweetness.
10:22
Yeah, that's not good. I can't. No.
And the bread is super dry like it feels like I'm eating stale bread.
10:30
This is wo bites, that's about all I can stomach right now. So next to the register
10:40
there was these little containers selling chocolate dipping sauce so I asked the cashier, like is this for dipping fruit or
10:44
candy? Like how do you do it, and she started laughing and she said no.
10:51
You gotta dip here sandwiches in it, and she pointed to all these different sandwich breads that I just tried.
10:56
She said you gotta dip it in here, so that's what she said so I'm gonna try it.
11:01
It's like chocolate pudding in here. It's super thick and really dark .
11:08
So out of curiousity, I'm gonna try it with that pork floss sandwich that was pretty gross, but let's try it with the chocolate dipping sauce.
11:14
I mean, that's what she said to do, the cashier told me that this is what it's for so I believe her.
11:23
OH GOD, that's a terrible combination!
11:33
No no no no, this is so fudgy and chocolatey I'm gonna try it with the chocolate banana sandwich.
11:37
Make sure I get a good amount on there, you see that?
11:48
Not bad, actually I couldn't even taste the dipping sauce, that bread really overpowers everything.
11:54
that pork floss sandwich, gross! So gross. I gotta wash it down with a different drink.
12:01
So this is called honey gak and gak is a very common fruit in Southeast Asia.
12:05
Let's shake it up and try it out, ooh
12:11
Mmm. I like this way better than the Bael fruit one. I mean it tastes like passion fruit or guava.
12:19
Yeah, that's really good.
12:28
Alright, so I got a mess of things here with wrappers and what not, but we've got three chips to still try.
12:29
So these two are by Lay, and this one is a ham and cheese sandwich flavored chip pack.
12:34
And this is a Miengkam Krobos flavor, and I'm going to assume that is a Thai dish.
12:40
It has a picture of what like looks like fish or shrimp or something, and some lots of chilies and lime and ginger.
12:47
Yeah, so I'm not really sure what the food is supposed to be, but let's go ahead and try this one first.
12:55
It just looks like a normal chip, right?
13:02
Got the lime. Oh my god, as I'm exhaling I'm getting more than just a lime. I'm getting like
13:11
some kind of a Southeast Asian dish.
13:19
Obviously Thai, but I don't know what it is like
13:22
I really don't know what what Miengkam Krobos is but I like to exhale, the exhale factor like gives out an extra
13:24
Yeah, there, as I exhaled. Mmmm. I gotta stop eating these chips. This is the most amount of junk food
13:37
I've had in like five years. All right. Let's try the ham cheese sandwich chips. I'm really curious what this is gonna be like.
13:42
Whoa that smells legitly like a ham and cheese sandwich!
13:51
Chip looks normal like a standard chip right? The ham smell smells like a honey cured ham or something. mm-hmm
13:56
Although the flavor is not there, it smells like it.
14:06
Yeah, but then the whole ruffled textured like throws it off, and then it just doesn't even taste like a ham and cheese sandwich.
14:12
All right the last chips. I have over here. That's by this other company.
14:18
I have no idea what that says in Thai, but it says Waffle with like hashtag or sharp, waffle sharp or waffle hashtag.
14:22
I don't know, but there's no English on this other than the company and it says Tasto.
14:29
Oh, so I have no hint of like what to expect other than it says waffle.
14:33
And then there's pictures of red chillies, and there's a lot of chili flakes on this.
14:39
I'm cuurious just how spicy this is.
14:45
Oh man, that's like a very pungent like pepper smell.
14:49
Have you ever like walked up to a pile of crushed red pepper
14:52
and kind of like caught a wiff and it really burns your nostrils? I get that vaguely from this.
14:56
Can you see the red pepper flakes on there?
15:02
Yeah, I don't know, this looks a little bit dangerous. Let's try it out.
15:05
Okay, I'm getting a little bit of the spice from the pepper.
15:10
Not bad, like I like the spice on it
15:14
but I've been eating way too many chip kind of products or bread, so to me right now,
15:17
this is kind of like grossing me out.
15:23
Just cuz I don't eat this kind of stuff. But if you like spicy things and you like chips
15:25
I think this is a good match.
15:29
Yeah, so I picked up kind of like a doshirak
15:33
bento kind of a thing here, and it is stir fried basil chicken and fried egg with rice.
15:35
And I thought it was kind of interesting because of the egg like it's just like a perfect circle.
15:41
Like where did this egg come from and how did they make it like that? See all the stuff here is kind of shifting to
15:47
the bottom because I have it tilted.
15:52
But yeah, let's go ahead and nuke this a little bit.
15:54
Alright guys, it is ready.
15:57
The spicy chicken, look at all those red peppers on there.
16:07
Mm-hmm
It's really good for 7-11,
16:10
probably one of the best like bento style meals I've ever had from a convenience store.
16:13
Now to wash it down, I'm gonna try out this snow mushroom beverage.
16:19
Just take off all that wrapping so that way you guys can see the actual jelly.
16:24
Whoa it's all at the bottom. I haven't shaken this up yet really.
16:30
And it doesn't do the pop, I want like the Snapple lid, like POP, like make a nice pop sound.
16:39
Doesn't smell any different from the other one ,the black jelly.
16:50
I can't tell the difference, I mean they're both good, but if I was blindfolded
16:55
I couldn't tell the difference between the two.
17:00
Last but not least. It says Boran. Let's go ahead and open this.
17:06
And there is the red bean ice cream. Now red bean is awesome.
17:11
You know it's also known as Anko, in Korea it's known as Pat. I grew up eating this kind of stuff in Japan.
17:16
Whoa, really hard. So I thought it was like red bean, and there was like pieces of chocolate.
17:23
But it's actually red bean with pieces of the red bean itself, so you know how when you eat like a handful of like
17:27
chocolate chips, and you just eat them? It has kind of the same like texture. You can even see on the inside there,
17:35
Hmm, that's a good way to end off this video. Don't you think?
17:44
Thanks for watching this kind of like Mukbang
17:51
7/11 taste test here in Bangkok Thailand. These are really interesting!
17:55
I'm very glad that I got to try these on camera for you guys, if you ever come to Bangkok,
17:58
definitely just walk into a 7-eleven.
18:03
Just buy all the random stuff.
18:05
