Kids Try Their Grandparent's Childhood Favorite Food | Kids Try | HiHo Kids

It's called hamburger pie. Hamburger pie? Hamburger pie, yeah. So this was kind of a dessert in those days. Well, to be honest, we didn't have much dessert in those days. This was a main course and dessert. Hi. Who are you two? I am Clara, and this is my grandfather, Arnold. I'm Gigi's grandmother. She calls me Nini. This is my grandfather, Preston. Grandfather, thank you. Gigi, what are you doing here with your grandma? Hmm, let's think again. We're going to do homework? No! I'm here because Clara wanted me to bring something that my mother, Kay, had made for me when I was a little guy that I liked and I remembered. What foods did you like to eat when you were my age? When I was your age, I ate whatever my mama gave me. You wouldn't believe it. We ate squirrels. What? Squirrels. My dad would shoot a squirrel, bring it home, fry it up, and we would have squirrel. What? Did you bring squirrel? No. What did you bring? Well, it has meat in it. Should we bring it out? Yep. Clara, open your eyes. What's that? That is a good old-fashioned Bisquick biscuit. Wow. It's probably stuck. What is it? I don't know. Bread. Biscuits and gravy. How about a dumpling? Open your eyes, Kabali. What do you call it? It's a brunch-loni sandwich. Bunch? Brunch. Brunch-loni? Yeah, because, you know, we'd have breakfast, which would usually be cereal, and then before we went out to play, we'd take a little sandwich so we wouldn't have to come back for lunch. So let's get to making this. Do I get the tiny bowl or the big bowl? Which? I want the big bowl. Of course, you want the big bowl. Come back here, chicken. What is this stuff? It's chicken and dumplings, and when I was little, I used to read cookbooks, and I read this recipe, and I wanted to make it, and my mom said, only if your dad's not home because he doesn't like his food mixed up. So we made it one time when my dad was gone, and I loved it. Can I have more chicken, please? Now, this is what I made for myself. My mama didn't make this for me. You put it on there, and you're taking it. Smash it down. Put the topping on there, and you mash it down. When would you eat this? You know, actually, this would be kind of a good meal. This would be like maybe a Sunday, fancy meal, like fancy Sunday dinner. Did you have to dress up for Sunday dinner? That's funny. We had to dress for Sunday dinner. We didn't dress up. Let's do this together. Me too. It's so spicy. But these are good. Yeah. Do you think you were like me when you were a little kid? I was probably a little more active than you, because once we had breakfast, we got kicked out the house. Dang! We'd go out and we'd play baseball. Oh. We'd swim. We'd have rock fights. Someone hit you right there. I got hit, but I'd see them come out and duck. Never got hit in the face, but, yeah. We'd have BB gun fights. One kid got his eye shot out. Really? Yeah, and he didn't play with us no more. What I recognize in you is that you're busy. You're always doing something. You're always moving. You're always active. Yeah, you're like me that way a lot, and you know what it is? What? It's because you're a pretty bright little one. You want to learn how to make this? Yeah. Yeah, we'll do that maybe next Wednesday on your early release day. That sounds like a good project. I built the last piece of chicken! Thank you for bringing this delicious dish. I'll be eating the chicken. Thanks, Papa, for coming here. Well, thanks for inviting me. Thank you for sharing this food with me. You're welcome. Want a toast? Happy holidays. Bye! Peace.
