In Germany there are some interesting snacks and we want to test how people react to these snacks. We're in Athens at the Easy Languages co-producers meeting. This is the perfect opportunity to invite our friends from other countries to try these snacks. Lisa, where have you brought us? I found some funny, funny things and I'm very excited to see how our people will react to it. Let's go! I'm Justin from the Easy Languages Team. Hi guys, my name is Mirna and I'm from the Easy Egyptian-Arab Team. Hello, my name is Sedqi. I'm from Tunisia. I'm the host of Easy Tunisian-Arabic. And today I'm gonna try some German sweets. It's like that. Oh no, I know what this shit is. Sweet licorice. It's in the shape of a fish. I already don't think this is my kind of thing. It's licorice. It looks like licorice. I don't really know what that is. Come on, let's do it together, dude. It's very strong, it's a strong taste. I've never tasted anything like this before in my life. Can you do that? Was that it? No, you can't do that. You could have just eaten it in a kitchen. It looks like something you see on the side of the road. I'm going to go through. I can't really say. It's just right at Grandma's House. But not in a fun art. In an old, rostigen... I just don't like it. These balls, do you remember anything? Yes, Kaninschenkacke.

I'll never do that again in my life. I'd say three. That's six. - Three? - What? The first. I'm sorry, this is another war for me. I love you, Lakritz. How could one describe Lakritz to someone who has never seen it? It's made from a root. It's not cute. It's sweet by the sugar. Aber Lakritz and sich is actually so würzig. It's a bittersweet, salty dish. And the German lieben das. I think Scandinavians love that too. But many other people from other countries don't know that. And are shocked. Lustigerweise, these things are called Schafsköttel. And that is actually a Wort für Schafskacke. And that's exactly what it looks like. And yet I am now. Full of lecker. Please take 10.

It reminds me a little of the We have feta chips. Feta and oregano. Is this sour cream and onion? No, it's not. It's onion and sour cream? That's exactly why I like it. The Greek likes it. No, I don't like it. I'm not going to. What is it? Oh, no, I'm not going to. You can't be serious. Now, the paprika. - Is it or isn't it? - I guess so. No one reveals for us. Something in the direction like kebab? Yeah, it could be. Tastes like fish. - What? - What? I know what it is. What's that? It's better than ketchup. No, it is curry. Yeah, really Greek. Curry sausage? Curry sausage! - No, you can't! The first one? I didn't like the tzatziki. I'd say four. I liked the tzatziki. I'd say eight. Okay, that's high. And the next one? Curry sausage was good. 7.5 and a half. I'd say seven as well. I would say seven. Both of them. Yeah, they're nice. But that's it. Germans like chips. and salt chips are too boring for us. That's why we invent A lot of new chips. This one's typical German. What's the matter? - What? Curry sausage. Curry sausage flavored. Chips with sausage flavor. That's common in Germany. We also noticed That we brought chips with a tzatziki flavour to Greece To show it to the Greeks. Okay, what is this? Doesn't look like a snack. It looks like a little potato. Little balls. I feel like I'm in a German experiment. Looks like a meatball. Is it sweet? You know this? I don't know it. Do you know when you used to make Clay balls? Even it feels like a clay ball. I'm gonna play with it first. I'm going to get some marzipan. - It is, isn't it? I think so, yeah. This is just sugar. Maybe with almonds. Yeah, almonds, you know. We don't have anything similar in Greece. In Sicily you have a lot of These things. It's good. It's good. Actually we have something similar. The taste. We call it baklava. Baklava is so different. It's a Tunisian baklava. The baklava from Tunisia? No, it's so different. Yeah, the taste. I wouldn't take another one. I would give it a Nine, because 10 is very high. - I'm not sure. I'll give it an 8 when I have one. Then it's too much. Then it really goes down. The second one would be a 6. The next one's a 5. I don't want to be bad. I gave 5.5 to the paper. I should be the same to this. I'll go for 5.5 again. No, for me it's still like 4. The What does the shape remind you of? Potatoes, baby potatoes. I know. The smaller ones. They're called mazipan kartoffeln. And they look like them too. Yeah, small ones. If I had never had them before I'd think they were potatoes. Germans love potatoes so much. That they even Sweet potatoes from other ingredients so that they look like A potato. This is the mazipan potato. Can you also make mashed potatoes out of it? What does What does mazipan consist of? From almonds. It's pressed almond paste. And you can eat it. It's also a delicious ingredient. for pralines, cakes, But you can also eat it like this and make it look like a potato. Germans love that. Oh, my God. I'm not... No, I'm just scared. I'm not scared. Because I feel like I'm Frankenstein. It looks like a moon. - I'm not going anywhere. A bean. It looks like a mini chocolate covered banana. What is this, Dimitris? I feel like I've had this before. Do they have bananas in them? - No, I'm not going. I like this one. I'm glad you do, my friend. I'm so happy for you. I want to be super clear about this. I'm kind of biased. I personally don't like chocolate. So, really. I mean, it could be great chocolate. I wouldn't know. That's good. I thought it was gonna be weird. I mean, weirder than this? Do you feel weird? There's alcohol in there. Yeah, it's all right. I'm not going to. Why not? - I don't know. For you it's weird. Alcohol is in a glass, not in chocolate. I think I should try one more. Just for scientific purposes. It has nothing to do with the alcohol. It has nothing to do with alcohol. What I would do is, I would open it. Alcohol, bye bye. Chocolate. What's your rating, Dimitris? I'll give it an 8. I'm biased. For me it is a no-go. I'm giving this one a 7. But it has a little boost. It's like a nice little surprise. It doesn't pass the IDA test. So I'll give it a 4. Because the chocolate was very, very good. I like chocolate, but I don't like to mix it. alcohol and chocolate. How can you not like chocolate? That's what they always ask me. How can you like chocolate? You're Mexican, that's where chocolate comes from. It is actually. I don't think many people know that. Allow me to be that person anyway. Be that person, Dimitris. Brandy beans. Is that something you ate at home? Not exactly this one. But at home we eat a lot of schnapps and pralines. The schnapps are pralines. That's great, right? You like to drink schnapps. You like to eat pralines. Why not combine directly And be easily drunk by pralines? Do you eat them too? Not so much. Neither did I, to be honest.
