0:00 I mean, I love a mini roll.
0:00 I've had some great times
with mini rolls. Trust me.
0:04 When we’re on the road...
0:10 [Both] Hello.
0:13 We've never done this before.
0:14 We've never done this before.
0:16 I'm Marcus. That's Ted.
0:17 We're from Mumford and Sons.
0:18 This is Snack Wars for LADbible.
0:21 We've made it.
0:22 Ted, are you gonna be alright
with this without your man with the white gloves that
normally does it for you?
0:27 Gerlad?
0:29 Gerald the Cloche.
0:31 I've watched him do it.
0:32 Have you ever touched one of these?
0:33 I think it's something like...
0:37 Oh...
0:38 Yes.
This is great.
0:39 Yes, this is great.
0:40 Alright.
I'm so up for this.
0:41 I mean, we already know.
0:43 Well, the fact that you went straight.
0:46 There's any one biscuit
I like more than this.
0:50 No, you can't bring up, you
can't bring another biscuit.
0:51 No you can't talk about other biscuits.
0:54 Choccy D.
0:56 [Producer, Erin] Choccy D?
0:57 It's a great way to start.
0:58 Is that what we’re calling it?
0:59 It's obviously a
Choccy D but it's not- Is it a dark?
1:02 It's not a dark choccy.
1:03 That's what's key about it.
1:04 We have to make a
collective decision about- What are you doing?
1:08 What do you mean, what am I doing?
1:09 I'm an artist.
1:10 I'm expressing myself.
1:13 That really stressed me out.
1:15 That whole thing really stressed me out.
1:16 You just can't beat a milk
chocolate digestive biscuit.
1:20 10 out 10.
1:20 Yeah.
1:21 Ted, what was the number one
biscuit just out of interest?
1:24 It would be the Hobnob version of this.
1:26 A chocolate Hobnob.
1:27 Do you know what [Erin] Hobby B?
1:28 I might give you that Hobby B.
1:29 Yeah.
1:30 A choccy Hobby B though.
1:31 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:32 A plain hobnob.
1:34 I just dunno who's buying
that biscuit.
1:36 Choccy D.
1:36 [Erin] So, a point to the UK.
1:37 Yeah, yeah.
1:39 Sorry about...
1:40 This was a f**king disaster.
1:42 [Hannah, Crew] What is the...
1:44 Oh wow. Oh no, God, it's peaking out.
1:46 I can see it.
1:47 Oh wow.
Oh, mate.
1:49 Aren't Twinkies one of the few things that would survive a nuclear holocaust?
1:52 Isn't that right?
1:53 It's not a great thing
to be known for that.
1:54 This, again, I'm sorry
to our American friends, but this is gonna be really easy.
1:59 It's gonna be really easy.
1:59 But I haven't tried a Twinkie in a long time, so you know.
2:02 I'll just check that these...
2:04 Fair is fair.
2:07 You get good batches and bad batches.
2:10 I’ll make sure it's a good batch.
2:13 Pretty good though, to be fair.
2:18 Yeah.
2:18 [Erin] Good batch?
2:19 Are you gonna finish it?
2:21 Yeah, I mean, there's
no real question here, is there?
2:25 See, I mean, it's a bit cakey for me.
2:28 Oh, it's- It wouldn't be my snack of choice.
2:30 I mean, I love a mini roll.
2:31 I've had some great times with mini rolls.
2:32 Trust me.
2:34 If it's a straight shoot
out between a Twinkie and a mini roll, our answer, I believe, is the Cadbury's mini roll.
2:42 When we’re on the road...
2:46 [Erin] And it was a good batch, Ted?
2:47 Very good batch.
2:48 Yeah, yeah. Thanks for checking.
2:49 [Erin] Good we checked.
2:50 Yeah. Yeah.
2:51 Gerald?
2:52 Gerald, remove the cloche.
2:53 Oh, there's a bit sneaking out.
2:54 Gerald?
2:55 Come on. Come on.
2:56 I’m gonna have to do it on my own.
2:57 Do it, do it.
2:59 Ah, okay.
3:01 My one concern about coming here was that there would be beef jerky.
3:05 Oh really?
3:06 When you're
doing anything with meat, the whole aim of the game
is to not dry it out.
3:11 Right? Don't make it dry.
3:12 Mate, you’re bonkers.
3:14 I'm the jerky guy.
3:17 And then pork scratchings.Yeah.
3:18 This one's gonna be easy for me, but apparently it's gonna
be easy for him as well.
3:21 [Erin] Ted, have
you tried beef jerky?
3:23 Not since I was just a wee boy.
3:25 Shall I give it a go?
3:26 Oh, that's really good, that is.
3:28 Oh, Lord.
3:31 It smells kind of nice.
3:32 Ted always does this with food.
3:33 He always has to smell it first.
3:35 He does it with drink as well.
3:36 You don't like it?
3:37 He doesn't like it.
3:38 No, I do like it.
3:39 Something's happening.
3:41 My tastes are evolving.
3:45 Never really been a pork
scratchings in this guy either.
3:48 Have you not? I wouldn't
have guessed that about you.
3:49 I would've thought you'd
had a big pork scratchings guy.
3:52 You love the pub.
3:53 I do love the pub.
3:56 How you have avoided pork scratchings.
3:57 I know.
3:58 There’s so many great snacks at the pub though.
4:00 Not only are there yummy beers, there's also nuts and there's scampy fries
and there's wonderful...
4:06 You guys should check it out.
4:07 The pub’s amazing.
4:08 I vote jerky actually.
4:10 You know what? I'm coming with you.
4:11 Are you?
4:12 I can't believe it.
4:13 But I will say, that's probably
the best pork scratching I've had in a long time.
4:18 This is just great.
4:20 The fact that we just get to eat snacks, this is the new world.
4:25 Thank you so much for having us.
4:26 I’m so here for it.
4:27 This is wicked.
4:29 Oh, This is easy.
4:30 This is easy, I don't
even need to eat that.
4:32 I don't need to eat that.
4:32 It's Freddo all day, every day.
4:37 We were on tour once when
one of the World Cups was happening and we had a
little peli case of like, you know, vocal warmup
stuff and tea and Freddos.
4:50 That was all that was in the peli case.
4:52 And we watched football and played FIFA on the bus for two weeks straight.
4:57 And it might've been the
best two weeks of my life.
4:58 These were my big treat
when my parents would go to the States and then they'd come back, they would always bring
Hershey's Kisses...
5:08 ...Hershey’s kisses with them.
5:11 Oh God, it's so good.
5:12 I will say with real confidence, it's an inferior chocolate.
5:17 I mean, I can tell you
that's absolutely incredible.
5:19 Whereas, watch this.
5:22 This, it’s really hard to beat.
5:24 I have this thing where
I'm a Dairy Milk guy.
5:26 Dairy Milk guy. Dairy Milk guy.
5:28 And then suddenly I'd
be like, I haven't had a Galaxy in about a year.
5:31 Have a Galaxy and I'd be like,
oh my God, I'm a Galaxy guy.
5:34 You're all sixes and sevens.
5:36 For like a minute, and
then I'm like Dairy milk guy.
5:38 Dairy Milk guy, Dairy Milk Guy.
5:40 But you need the galaxy, just to swing back.
5:42 Yeah, and it's nice to go on holiday, but we all know where home is and it’s with the Freddo.
5:47 Ready...Steady...
5:48 Is it Disco's?
5:49 No, it's Wotsits.
5:50 Oh yes.
5:53 I mean this is really hard to,
this is gonna be really hard.
5:56 I'm not sure if it is.
5:58 They're baked. Are they all baked?
6:00 Is this Jamie Oliver?
6:01 Is this what he is done to us?
6:03 I'm genuinely like nervous of these because I have such a affection for them that when I have one I'm
genuinely, that's it.
6:10 I'm gonna have most of these.
6:12 Come on.
6:13 The day we finished Wilder Mind, my housemate at the
time filled the bathtub with those.
6:18 Packets. Didn't empty the pack,
like the big packets for me to get in.
6:23 Yeah. It was very sweet of him.
6:25 Oh my God.
6:26 Yeah I’m a Wotsits guy, obviously.
6:29 What happens if we don't agree?
6:30 We've not not agreed yet.
6:32 [Erin] You're allowed a draw or two.
6:34 Okay.
6:34 [Erin] It just kind of
invalidates the overall score.
6:36 The whole round is
basically a waste of time.
6:38 [Erin] So, I mean Wait, you've gone the
wrong way around there because that will overpower your My mouth is already on fire.
6:44 Taste buds for the
next six to eight hours.
6:46 You should have gone Wotsits, then Doritos.
6:48 You're absolutely
right. But I am in love.
6:50 You've already made your choice.
6:51 Well let me just be academic about it.
6:56 This show is made for you Ted.
6:59 [Erin] What is it about
the Flaming Hot Doritos?
7:02 I think it's probably
the monosodium glutamate.
7:07 Or it could be the canola
or soybean. I'm not sure.
7:09 I'm not sure, I’m not sure.
7:11 It could be yellow five.
7:13 I really love a yellow five, man.
7:16 Red 40 Lake is also, it's pretty strong.
7:20 When was the last time you
really tucked into a nice plate of disodium inosinate?
7:25 I'm a Wotsits guy?
7:26 You're a flaming hot Doritos guy.
7:27 Yeah, I guess so.
7:28 So that's a draw.
7:29 [Erin] Yellow five?
7:30 The yellow five guy.
7:33 [Erin] What was the clocheman's name again?
7:34 Gerald.
[Erin] Gerald.
7:36 Why am I holding my own
cloche, for God's sake?
7:41 Oh, right.
7:41 Oh, is that a pecan pie?
7:43 Okay, now we're heating up.
7:44 This is a heated rivalry
and I'm excited about it.
7:48 Does depend where it's from.
7:49 These are Mr. Kipling's, I presume.
7:50 [Erin] Correct. Yeah.
7:51 Exceptionally good cakes.
7:53 But I mean...
7:55 Oh my God, I haven't had one in a long time.
7:57 Yeah, I’ve not had one in ages.
7:58 [Marcus] That is banging.
7:59 [Erin] Marcus, for an American watching who might not know what a Bakewell tart is, are you able to explain?
8:03 Yeah, yeah. I can break it down for you.
8:04 [Erin] Thank you.
8:05 It's effectively a pastry cup, which is then filled with a layer of jam or jelly to our American friends.
8:15 And then a sort of almondy Marzipany.
8:20 Marzipan situation.
8:21 And then icing on top.
8:24 So it's like jam, marzy, ice, with crust.
8:28 And a cherry on top.
8:28 And the best ones obviously
are made by Mr. Kipling.
8:31 He's a very busy man.
8:32 And I've spent a lot of time, I've spent a lot of time
with a Bakewell tart and there's a lot to be said for a great...
8:38 There is indeed.
8:42 What are we thinking?
8:43 I'm a bit, I'm struggling a bit actually.
8:44 Are you?
8:45 Yeah, because I did, I
would never order a pecan pie.
8:48 It's not tiramisu, is it?
8:49 Ted has applied along with
our friend Freddy, to become one of the judges of the
World Tiramisu Championships, which is quite an involved process.
9:04 And I've never met anyone
that takes a su quite as seriously as our Ted.
9:09 That's why the Tiramisupergroup exists, because there's a lot of f**cking there's a lot of dodgy sus out there.
9:16 There's a lot of dodgy sus.
9:17 People are getting away
with absolute murder with their sus.
9:19 They really are.
9:19 I'm so glad we've found a
platform for your Tiramisu passion.
9:23 We've never been able to
talk about this in public before now.
9:25 [Erin] Live exclusive.
9:26 And here we are.
9:27 Obviously LADbible was the place to launch this moment in your career.
9:30 I feel like I'm struggling.
9:32 Here's my argument.
9:33 If you come across an amazing pecan pie, and I think normally that
would be a homemade situation around the holidays period
in the states or Canada, you get your pecan pie and it's banging.
9:46 It's hard to beat that.
9:47 And for a lot of people
that probably has a lot of emotional value.
9:49 To me, it doesn't
really, and I would argue that's not the greatest
pecan pie I've tasted, and I've tasted some great ones.
9:56 Whereas Mr. Kipling's
Bakewell tarts are consistent all the time and they're always banging.
10:01 I can't argue with that.
10:02 Yeah, Mr. Kipling wins.
10:03 Yeah, the Bakewell Tart.
10:04 Thank you sir. Thank you Mr. Kipling.
10:06 [Erin] Thank you Mr. Kipling.
10:07 He was up early this morning.
10:08 Top lad.
10:10 Great choices guys.
10:11 [Erin] Great choices. Fantastic.
10:12 You challenged us.
10:13 You took us on an emotional ride as well.
10:14 And nostalgic.
10:16 Yeah. Yeah.
10:16 It was a very nostalgic
journey, wasn't it?
10:18 Yeah.
10:19 [Erin] Ted, what was the
highlight snack for you?
10:20 I mean, it might have
been the Cadbury's mini roll because it's not something I...
10:26 What? You asked me the question.
10:29 We have to cut because
he's eating the mini roll.
10:33 It was my highlight today, 'cause it's not something I
really have like a moment for in a day because I'm
a fully grown man now.
10:40 I mean, no offence.
10:43 I was very hungry when
I arrived here today.
10:45 I was really hungry.
10:47 So that first chocolate
digestive is hard to beat.
10:51 However, the Freddo just about
did it. And it always will.
10:55 When we're on the road, there's
only one thing we can...
10:58 The peli cases. Peli cases of Freddos.
11:02 [Erin] In this
episode of "Snack Wars," the UK won.
11:09 ♪ God save ♪ Shall we?
11:10 ♪ God save our gracious King ♪ ♪ Long live our ♪ Oh, so beautiful.
11:18 Beautiful.
11:19 Gerald, return the cloche.
11:22 [Erin] Cool. That's it.
11:23 Thank you guys so much.
11:24 Thank you guys.
11:25 [Erin] That was really fun.
11:27 Scones. I love Clotted cream.
11:30 Let's do a disclaimer.
11:31 Let's do a disclaimer.
Yeah, we have no idea what we're doing?
11:34 Please don't kick us out of here.
