INDIAN SNACKS TASTE TEST 🛒 Trying 10 Different INDIAN Food Items (Salty, Sweet and Savory) in Canada

Подробнее о видео

Join us for an Indian snacks taste test as we try different Indian food items at our home in Canada. One of the advantages of being in Brampton at the moment is having access to great Indian food at a grocery store just three blocks away from our house. We decided just for fun to grab 10 Indian snack food items, ranging from savoury and spicy to salty and sweet, to gobble up in our basement. I can honestly say we liked all of them aside from one. And you'll find out why we didn't like that snack! It is for a humorous reason.

10 INDIAN SNACKS WE TRIED

1) Methi Atta Cookies - 7 different grain cookie including 65% wheat, 12.5% fenugreek, ragi (finger millet), jowar (sorghum), green mung bean, barley, and soybean

2) Joyful Magic Masala Lays Chips - Indian crips with masala flavour ingredients and spices

3) Spicy Para - Spicy wheat flour chips from India that tasted like samosas corners to us

4) Besan Barfi - Indian fudge made from chickpeas (a nice sweet and buttery taste and texture)

5) Shakkar Pare - Indian snack popular in Western India (Gujarat) often enjoyed in Diwali

6) Makhana Gorgon Nut with Peri Peri flavour (Tasted like spicy rice puffed cakes)

7) Sago Seviya Wafer (Colourful items that were not meant to be eaten raw)

8) Black bourbon creme sandwich (Indian style rectangle cookie similar to an Oreo)

9) Surati Coconut Cookies (sweet and buttery cookies with a subtle taste of coconut)

10) Soan Papdi Plaindre (popular Indian dessert that is cube-shaped and flaky with nuts)

🇮🇳 Indian Snacks Taste Test in Canada! | Trying 10 Snacks & Sweets from Brampton 🥨🍪 | Samuel & Audrey

🛒 Snack Haul: Picking 10 from Hundreds

With so much choice at the store, it was hard to stop at 10.

We’ve got a mix of savory and sweet Indian snacks, some familiar from past trips, others brand new.

Fun fact: many of these treats are perfect for train rides in India!

☕ Chai Time! | Starting with Instant Masala Chai

We kick things off by making a cup of instant masala chai (unsweetened), loaded with classic spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, clove, and black pepper.

🍪 Snack #1: Mariatta Wheat Cookies

Crunchy, buttery, and not overly sweet—perfect for dunking in chai.

Audrey demonstrates the dunk, setting the bar for the rest of the snacks!

🥔 Snack #2: Lay’s Magic Masala Chips

A staple from Indian train rides, these masala chips are an explosion of flavor and a bit of heat.

Ketchup chips may be unique to Canada, but masala chips rule in India!

The taste brings back train journey nostalgia and epic cross-country trips.

🥟 Snack #3: Spicy Parm (Wheat Flour Chips)

These square, crunchy chips smell like samosas and taste like samosa corners.

Great with green or red chutney, and pack a spicy punch.

🍬 Snack #4: Besan Barfi (Chickpea Fudge)

Dense, crumbly, subtly sweet, and with a hint of almond/marzipan.

A unique twist on fudge compared to North American versions.

Sam’s notorious for eating whole bricks of fudge “for gifts”—that never make it to the recipient!

🍩 Snack #5: Shakkar Pare (Sugar-Coated Crunchy Squares)

Heavier and denser than bread, coated in crunchy sugar granules.

Quite sweet, but a bit bland inside—best with a hot cup of chai.

🌽 Snack #6: Peri Peri Roasted Makhana (Fox Nuts)

Resembling puffed corn or popcorn, these peri peri-seasoned makhana are light, savory, and addictive.

Ideal for train rides or Netflix bingeing—Sam’s new favorite!

🧇 Snack #7: Sago Seviyan Wafer

This one’s a fail—turns out it’s a cooking ingredient, not a ready-to-eat snack!

The pair discover they’re eating “snack section pasta” and vow to look up a recipe next time.

🍫 Snack #8: Black Bourbon Cream Sandwich Cookies

Like rectangular Oreos, with sugar granules and a creamy vanilla filling.

Both agree: “We love Oreos—these are dangerously good and won’t last long!”

🥥 Snack #9: Sarathi Coconut Cookies

Buttery, crumbly, and with a mild coconut flavor—perfect for dunking in chai.

Audrey’s mom is predicted to love these.

🍮 Snack #10: Soan Papdi (Indian Flaky Sweet)

Feathery, cotton candy-like texture with pistachios and almonds.

Super delicate, melts in your mouth, and is a top favorite among the sweets.

🥒 Snack #11: Pakori (Gram Flour Snack)

Crispy, but not flavorful on their own—meant for dipping in yogurt or chutney.

Sam and Audrey suggest this as a party snack for pairing with dips and sauces.
