I recently went to Thailand. Why? Oh, I'll never tell you. But I will tell you this. Actually, I won't tell you that. I'm not going to tell you anything because you It would spoil the ark. I hate that intro. I don't know what's wrong with me. Hey, it's me. I've lost it. I will now sing the national anthem of Thailand. Oh, [\h__\h] I don't know it. It's time for another review video. Where? From the wonderful land of Thailand. Why is it called Thailand?

WIKIPEDIA. In my time on YouTube, I have been able to become the official reviewer of anything that I review. I basically push everyone out. All those other YouTuber review channels and unboxing channels, they are shivering in their boots and their beds every night hoping that the boogeyman that is me doesn't come reviewing for their content because as soon as I do, they're done. So, I play nice cuz I'm such a nice guy. And I refuse to go into any kind of official tech stuff. But when it comes to things that I can conveniently buy from 7-Eleven on my really quick less than 24-hour turnaround trip to Thailand and back, I'm the master of that.

I spent a whopping I think it was only like 500 bot. I'm not going to lie. That's neither here nor there. Why am I wearing these? You couldn't possibly fathom the reasons for it. it's all pertaining to the thumbnail and the presentation. Because 9/10en of a review, which none of those other snobs in the YouTube review sphere will ever understand, is that it's about presentation. It's not about how clean the aesthetic is. It's not about how pretty the background is. It's not about how minimalistic or simplistic or whatever it is. It's about showmanship. Really hope there are fireworks that went off when that happened. Okay. Anyway, uh blindfold again. If you have watched uh Jiujutsu Kaizen, you know that uh Satur Gojo has a blindfold and

that makes him really cool. Therefore, me being a review channel, that makes me really cool. It's not time for that yet. I'm going to somehow get these down here so that I can pull them out one at a time and it can be a secret. Why is it a secret? Presentation. Like I said, Crow raven Thailand snacks. I don't see enough of this in media. I mentioned this the other day because my conversations are really weird and boring and no one wants to participate. But I don't see this enough. Fork knife. I want food. I don't see enough of that in media. I don't know why I yearn for it, but I think we all can agree the world would be a lot better if we had more. I w and I want to start off with a big one that I know which one it is, but the blindfold renders me

impossible to know what this is. There it is. I don't know if all these are exactly from Thailand specifically. I tried, but I did not have a lot of time. Why? That's a secret that you're going to discover in exactly 14 minutes and 27 seconds. So this now there's a problem here because I can't read Tai. I don't even know what the phonetics of any of these characters are. But I do know rice cracker with pork floss. Pork floss. I don't know about you, but among the list of top five most unappetizing things I've ever heard of, pork floss is pretty up there. But Amy said she knew what pork floss was. I have been around Amy for maybe 10 years

now, maybe is. And I can say with a lot of confidence that I have never seen pork floss around you, consumed by I don't know what something is. I can conjecturize what it is from the contextual clues of the words and arrangement thereof. And it terrifies me. How do you floss a pork? How do you floss a pig? I don't know, man. The other thing is that the big bold letter says overload. So, there's an overloaded amount of pork floss in here. I'm ready. This is why all the other review channels run scared because

they wouldn't dare eat pork floss. Oh, it's in a tray. product of Thailand. This is about as authentic as a Thailand thing gets. And I think this is Thailand. Looking at it makes my insides quiver in anticipation. The detail on that. Whoa. They're Oh, man. That is a Wow. It's like the trimmings after I shave. Oh, I want the stuff at the bottom. It looks like I'm about to eat a piece of a couch. How else can I explain it? It looks like I'd rather eat that bug from Unison's days. N I think I'll take this. Can't be that.

It's fuzzy. Actually, the taste is very good. I'm not going to lie. That's shockingly better than I thought it would taste like, but it's fuzzy on the tongue. That's weird. Doesn't taste as close to licking a carpet as I imagined. You have a superpower where if you look at something and you imagine licking it, you can feel what it looks like, right? That's something everyone could do. So if I look at a tree and I'm like, I wonder what it'd be like to lick the tree bark, I'd be like scratchy, you know? Bob can do that. Yeah, he said he could. Right, Bob?

He said that. Got quite a porky aftertaste, which would make sense. Overloaded with pork floss. Really not that bad. Don't twist my face. I got a lot of floss on that one cuz I put it floss side down on my tongue that time. It dead felt like licking a carpet. Didn't like that one as much. I'm good actually now. I'm okay. It has a ton of the flavoring thing. It has a ton of the thing. Overload. I love that. I don't get why these chip companies make things like hint of lime or a dash of lime or a lime breathed on this.

I want destroyed with lime. All right, one down. Amy, all right, good choice. Put it closer. This was a thing that I saw a lot of milk tablet. I'm not sure what it means. Yeah, milk tablet. So, I saw a couple different brands. So, there was enough of them that made me think this was indeed a Thai thing. So, I have two brands here of milk tablet and I'm going to open them at the same thing. This is a world first for Markiplier reviews. Dual openings. It's like card pack openings except it if this was real cards, people would be really upset with me. But then again, who cares because their opinions are trash and they

shouldn't do what they do. Milk tablets. Okay. So, we have I'll hold these up for you. We have one that has a cow design on it. And then one that doesn't have anything. And that has like the more traditional I'm guessing packaging. So, I'm going to try what came before. A little something old, something new, whatever the rest of the not as sweet as I had anticipated cuz usually when I see things like this, I think of a sweet tart. That doesn't mean bad. I wouldn't call it savory, but it's definitely not. I think it actually is just a dried condensed milk kind of thing, right? I can't read this. I don't know why I expected to be able to read it. I don't really like it.

I'm okay with things that like lack sweetness cuz I'm not super Well, I love sugar, let's be honest. I love intense sour taste. This is a very mellow snack. No matter which way you look at it, it doesn't have tons and tons of flavoring. It doesn't have tons and tons of texture to it because as soon as you bite into it, it turns kind of mushy and it just turns into a little like lump of goo. So, it's not texturally interesting as you would think like a tablet would be where it's kind of like turns to sugary dust or something like that and then it's done. It lingers, which some people might like, but I don't really like the flavor. So, the lingering doesn't work for me. But I can see how if someone's

palette was more inclined to things like this and less Americanized with sugar and well, I guess now it's moving towards protein, which is actually kind of nice that things are moving towards protein. Speaking of protein snacks, I found this, which is a protein chip of some kind entree. Don't know them. High protein. Actually, this might be that might not be an eye. And this might just be pure HGH, which would be a different turn that my life could take at this moment. This could Let's keep the wimps out. Am I right? Okay, so we have got a chip. I don't know what it's made of, but Oh, wait. It says pork and chicken classic flavor. So, this is classic flavor of this chip, but it's got high protein. 12

g and 9 g of carbs and half a gram of fat. Ooh, I kind of like that. It's got a little aftertaste. Nice crunch, though. There's a lot of different chips out there that are trying to do the all protein thing where it's like it's cheese crisps and you know they're just literally cheese flattened and baked into a crisp and you know they're sometimes hit or miss and this clearly doesn't taste exactly like a normal chip. So again it's got that kind of aftertaste but honestly the crunch is pleasant and sometimes in a food or a snack like that's what you really want. You want the crunchy salty that sound again.

It's really got some it's got some tink to it. That's free. People can have that. Yeah, this is free, too. Oh, no. Can you believe all of this content on YouTube that I provide is free? I'm sorry. Talk with your mouth full. I'm sorry. Editors, keep my mouth closed in that moment. Thanks. Uh, I think this is something. This is not milk tablets. I thought at first it was, but it's like kind of looks like a cough drop wrapper called Corey Fin. Cory Fininn. And they look like this. Is that good? That was good. Yeah, the two coming out. Those are maybe That's why I'm the best.

This might be a cough drop. This might actually just be a cough drop. I mean, it's nice. I like cough drop, too. If it's a candy, it's good. If it's cough drop, pretty good, too. It does kind of have that medicinal, you know, minty taste. Kind of like toothpaste a little bit. Um, which I like. I like eating toothpaste. It's delicious. Songhai product of Thailand. I am nailing it. This is sanghai. So, these uh look like um like vanilla wafer. Kind of like KitKat, but not that. There's another thing that's more like it than this, but I can't remember. Is a vanilla wafer. Here's a vanilla Just in case I'm right. And the vanilla wafer is a thing that I think this is like No, it is like a vanilla.

Yeah. Okay. So, I was right. Yeah. I was just trying to like see if I was right so that people could see if I was right. And now they see side by side. It is identical. Get this out of here. I have the cough drop in my mouth. I'll put it with the milk tablets. I'm not going to eat those. Delicious. That's good. That's delicious. I mean, it's delicious. Got the like the wafer layers. Got the vanilla. It's good. I mean, I just can't I can't deny it. Plain old good. Sometimes tried and true recipes don't need to be changed that much. All right, let's see what we got here. Product of Thailand.

We got hot and spicy bread sticks. hot at the first bite. I got a funny story. We were at a restaurant. Well, maybe not funny. It depends on who you ask, but I'm telling you, therefore, it'll probably be funny. So, I was at a restaurant and I was ordering food, right? Cuz that's what you do at restaurants. Are you laughing yet? All right, here we go. It's going to get funnier from here. Just hold on to your seats. Get the goofs going. I was ordering food. They asked me if I wanted spicy and I got all these warnings. They're like, "Oh, you better be careful. You better watch out. Spicy in Thailand. I'm like I'm half Korean. Don't know what this was. I just stabbed myself in

I'm half Korean as all Kore half Koreans do. We do that. Anyway, I eat a lot of spicy foods. Um, so I have a above average spice tolerance. And so I asked for the spicy and they went normal spicy or Thai spicy. I was like spicy. And I think they did normal spicy and it was spicy but it wasn't that bad. That's pretty good. It's not that bad. Even spicier. So, I'm like I don't know. I just like a Taki is spicier than this. So, I'm like, Thailand, you know, you can amp it up. You could you can amp it up. You could go higher with the spice. You could spice it up. It's probably not two dissimilar ingredients for like peppers and stuff. So, a lot of, you know, Asian countries have a similar level of spice. It just

says spicy bread sticks. So, I'm assuming it's just bread, but it's like Oh, wheat flour, tapioca flour, sugar, fish sauce, olive oil. Anyway, they're very good. Caramel ball. Don't know if this is a full-on Thai thing, but caramel ball. Product of Thailand. I really should have looked at the back. There's a very convenient product of Thailand right there. Oh god, it's telling me where I got it. 20 bucks. THAT one was easier. Whoa. Get away from that. Whoa. Okay. This is what we're working with here. It's caramel balls or something. I don't know what else it would be made out of, but Oh, they got the percentages. What's in here? Corn flour 34 and 12%, sugar 30%, rice flour

25, palm oil. butter. Chica. Chica's 11 now. Did you know that? He's doing great. Chica, show him how great you're doing. Hey, girl. I've got weird snacks. You don't want any of these. Has it been 14 minutes and 27 seconds? Yeah, it has. There is another reason why we went to Thailand. The caramel. Oh, the caramel balls. Oh, man. This would be a terrible place to put a mid roll ad. How are they getting the caramel here?

There is no caramel. Okay, maybe there is. There's butter blend, butter flavor, and then nature identical flavor and artificial flavor. What is nature identical mean? That's a new one. there's another reason. There's another reason we went to that way. And that was because there's a uh rescue out there called Tai Street Paws. It's down in Scla and there's a person by the name of Tamara that runs Tai Street Paws has run it for something like 15 years. If you remember Henry who passed last year, came from Tai Street Paws. Uh actually was found on the beach um horrifically injured and brought in and nursed back

to health and then sent off to the US where he made his way into our lives. And so we've always had a special place in our heart for Tai Street Paws and Tai dogs in general. Since then, because Henry was just such a wonderful, wonderful dog, we heard that there was this other dog out there. She had a very similar story to Henry. Had been hit by a car at some point, had this disease, and was taken in, who knows how close to the brink of death, but you know, closer than most of us would be comfortable with, and um nursed back to health. She just looks like this sweetheart. She has a limp. Then we're going to be taking her to physical therapy, but it was a quite an adventure to try to get her

from Thailand because of all the rabies vaccine requirements and the various things. And it was actually a fun adventure. And then we met this dorm by the name of Sandy, Cassandra, but you know, Sandy for short. You might have to go pick her up. I might have to go pick her up. Okay. She likes being in bed. Yeah, she really loves being in bed. Hi, girly. She's just starting to figure out the trust. Um, and she's been very cozy, as you can see, surrounded by toys in your bed. In your beautiful bed.

She's a real sweetheart. Can you hop up? You want to hop up? No, not you, Chica. Here comes Chica. You rang. Hi, girly. She at first was very scared of Chica because Chica is so much larger than her because she is a tiny group. And uh so Chica being a sweetheart was, you know, a little, you know, excited at first, but then immediately matched her energy. Uh so she's been very calm, very passive, slightly jealous ever since, but she's been doing a great job. Whoa. There she is. So this is Sandy, also known as Cassandra. Hi. Sorry about this. I just wanted to introduce you to every right there. I'm going put you right back. So uh this is her leg that got dislocated. Um and then was uh reset

maybe eight months ago or something like that. Um and she's been building up a lot of strength ever since. So really trying to be gentle with her even if I picked her up like this. But she's a sweetheart. Amy and I just very happy to be able to give her a home and another chance. And so she's getting used to uh a comfortable life in air conditioning. Not that they didn't have it at the rescue in Slaw, but not everywhere, especially out in the yard. So she's quickly becoming an inside dog. And she really likes it. She really likes food. She's got infinite capacity for food. Yeah. She's a real sweetheart. Okay, I'm going to let you go back to bed. You can go back to bed

now. I apologize. You're so good. That was amazing. Thank you for that. You can go back to bed. You go back to bed, little girl. You go back to bed. To finish this up, there's a link in the description to Tai Street Paws where you can donate. It is not a very big rescue. Tamara has done a lot of work. Um, not entirely by herself. She has a team that helps her out there, but it's obviously very hard. there's too many dogs. So, if you can consider making a donation, um it goes a long way. There are dozens, if not hundreds of these dogs that tomorrow cares for directly. Uh there are thousands upon thousands of dogs in Thailand and Thailand right now has a high risk uh for rabies country or at least

designated. So, um which creates a lot of restrictions on the import process for risking a dog from there. It's a lot of hoops to jump through and I don't think that anytime soon we're going to be able to change that, but it just means that they need more support out there than ever because it's harder than ever to make sure that their dogs find their forever homes. So yeah, if you have anything to spare, um it'd be a good place to make sure that there are going to be some dogs that get some food, get some care, um get the shots that they need, get, you know, spayed and neutered cuz the population is another issue and there's just doesn't seem to be enough ever to be enough, you know, help to go around. So

if you can help, that'd be great. Link in the description. Get your dogs fixed. I'm assuming these are milk tablets. Yeah, there's there's almost no English on this one. They're brown. Why are they brown? Beef tablets. Chocolate. Beef or chocolate. Beef or chocolate? I still don't know. It's really walking the line. I don't like those milk tablets. I'm not going to lie. Those milk tablets not for me. I am. Okay. Gjard. Another product of Oh. Oh, this one might not be a product of Thailand. At least it doesn't say. I'm not seeing it anyway. Okay. So, I'm not sure what this is. Chewy candy tamarind.

Quote that. Whatever that means. So, this could be looking at it. It could be many things. It could be chocolatecoed like M&M types. It could be candycoated thingamabobs, which are also M&M thing thingama types. Smells like packaging. They had something in one of these that said like it was it had packaging gas in it in the ingredient list. I forget which one it was. Anyway, so this is what it looks like. It's impossible. Why is it impossible? Oh, it's because I set the responsiveness to low. Why would you do that? Now I look like my responsiveness is low.

What is it? I think I'll try it. I've never had anything quite like that. I don't know what that is. Sugar tamarind 29%. So, whatever that is, it sounds familiar. I'm pretty sure I've heard it before. My brain was working overtime just trying to identify what it was. Yeah, it's kind of got a sour little tartness to it. It's definitely got some sweetness. I'm not denying that it's got the sweetness, but it's earthy. Yeah. Similar to when you called candy medicinal. Yeah. I'm into it. I think I am. You were making did not make it look like you were into it.

It was so different. And also, I'm a YouTuber. I fake all my actions. Am I right, everybody? There's a There's something familiar in this. I almost want to say curry, but I It's not quite there either. It's very different. This is about the most different thing I've tried of any of this food. Like, okay, this is unique. If this isn't from Thailand, I apologize, but still, even so, this is the most different thing so far. And not bad. I think the second one went down easier than the first one. I got a fun one for you in three, two, one. Yes, we did it. Anyway, it's like a bear. He's got a gummy bear and then there's soup and then it says WS and there's a jar of boo or something like that.

There's shrimp in there. How do you know? Oh, there's shrimp in there. It doesn't say product of Thailand. At least it doesn't say that in English. So, I don't know what how do I Wait, what the hell? Well, that didn't help me. Yes, it did. Made it really easy. So, I got tongs. There's a bag of looks like sour gummy bears. And there's dipping sauce. It's basically donaroos except it's got dipping sauce of unknown sauce. What are you? There's something from But it's not something I would dip candy. It's It's It's got fish. Definitely. It's fish sauce in here for sure. 100%.

Fish packet you'd boil. Exactly. Yeah. It's like a fish packet. That's what it smells like. It smells booion that you would do for an Asian uh soup base or something like that. A fishbased soup. A fish soup base. Now I understand why there's a bowl of soup with shrimp in it right here. All right, I'm going to try it as intended. I'm not just going to be like a gummy bear. It's a gummy bear. I'm going to try it as intended, which is dipped. And not a wimpy dip either. Would you like to try? Okay. Yeah, that's probably wise. I try this gummy be. All right. It tasted exactly as advertised. It tasted like you dipped a gummy bear in a jar of fish bouan.

It was very conflicting. The sweet and sour of the gummy bear, which I'm eating right now, did not merge well with the sauce. If I had imagined anything to pull out of this bear tub, it would not have been sauce of any kind. That's my shrunken worldview that prevents me from imagining a life where I could enjoy sauce with my candy of the fish variety. The picture of the soup that he's dipping into here, I know why they turned it into a cartoon on the outside. It looks like in Resident Evil 7 when you go into their house and there's a pot on the stove that has clearly been there a very long time. It looks like that. And I'm sure it's delicious, whatever this is. But I would like to

take that by itself and not have it anywhere near my gummy bears. All right, just a few more. Mango with apricot powder. I don't think there's anything crazy going on here, but it did say product of Thailand. So, this is a Thai snack. I think mango is okay. It's got apricot powder, though, which when I think of apricots, I'm like, "Wow, a lesser plum, which is weird cuz I consider tangerines a better than orange. This tastes like um kind of like roadside mango with the spicy stuff on it that you get here in LA. Not bad. I mean, if you like mango and then you like some kind of coating like this.

Oh, you'd like this. Thumbs up. Honey crisp. Cookie, you know the honey. They're glued together. Now, I actually take that as a positive sign because if this has any kind of caramel or honey or something like that, uhoh, you know how when you're seeing American foods and you got a sauce and it's got like that with a dollop of honey going, you know, you get cloves of garlic and a shaker of mystery something. I hope it's sugar. This is different, you know, different advertising. Julie, I'll try it first. You didn't need to try.

Damn, it's really good. Wow. M. Holy [\h__\h] That's great. Product of Thailand. I'm not seeing it. Just fried sweet potato chips coated with butter, caramel, sweet and spicy flavored party. It's literally what it says. This is really good. Like, no joke. That's really good. Wow. Like the caramel is not overpowering like many caramel coated things. This is really good. And there must be some garlic in here because there's cloves of garlic there. This is my favorite by far. I hope it's Thai. I really do. But that's that's fantastic. Okay, this one's just a lump of sweet potato. I don't like sweet potato that much. I don't What's the I'm going to put that away. I'll come back to it.

This is banana something. Banana. Okay, so we got very similar things going on here. Sundried banana. That's all this says. It is. And then the last thing is literally just cream crackers. Product of Thailand. I think they needed to print that bigger. I feel like the design and layout needed some work. Won an award in 2024. Won a gold award for mande selection. Wait, wait. There's a lot of questions I have about the design of this. You see in that some At first I was like, "Hey, this is the most normal looking package." Then I'm like, "Wait a minute." No, this is some backrooms food you'd find. I'm opening the crackers because I got these.

That's my fault for having expectations. This doesn't seem weird to probably a lot of people. This is very weird as an American to simply open the package and there be crackers spilling out and then not be in a plastic tub. This is better clearly obviously but again shows the redundancy of plastic packaging but this is this looks great. Great cracker. That's really good. We're going to eat with some cheese and some salami. Good cracker. This is a sweet potato. I don't like it. Sweet potato. How is this a sweet potato? Time to bust out the big I don't have it. Okay. Okay, this is all I get. I'm going to nibble this much right there.

There is the tiniest essence of a flavor. I was confused because I've been into it and nothing happened. I haven't really had that with food, you know. I think they forgot to put the flavor back in. Sweet potato is always mild. Mhm. Yeah, for sure. But I would have thought it would have condensed the flavor down. Is this going to taste like a banana or what? That has flavor. That is a lot of flavor. So, my favorites is still this. Very good. Great crackers. Pork floss was interesting. I don't want to go back cuz I'm afraid this was the most interesting by far. Just weirdness going on here, but I think I liked it. The bears with the sauce. Winner for the

worst. Uh, just because I can see you were trying to go for something. I don't like what you were going for. I never need you to go there. Actually, I need you to go there and stay there and never come back. But the gummy bears are pretty good. They got an interesting flavor to them. Milk tablets are okay. I wonder what the best thing you got in Thailand was. What was it? I do too. Sandy. It's been a real treat to get to know Sandy and learn her quirk. She's just started to come out of her shell a little bit and uh it's been a real fun adventure and a fun adventure getting

her. Maybe sometimes not so fun, but worth it no matter what. So, thank you everybody so much for watching. Um, I will have more Iron Lung news coming up very soon. I'm going to do a follow-up vlog after this to talk about what I've been doing in the interim because I've been trying to do something that is more than just uh to try to build something larger, not just for myself, but just like, hey, more potential for the future. And that takes a lot of negotiating. And, you know, there's a lot of lawyer talk going on right now. Um, but I'll have something very soon. At least I can tell you what I'm trying to do, but I will save that for another video because not here for that. Uh, once again, Tai Street Paws link in the

description. If you can make a donation, please do. Any amount will help. It's it's a link down there. It's a such a small operation. There are some larger operations that work out in Thailand, but we have not worked with them. And I can tell you that Tamara has just the heart for it, just the drive and has done incredible things. you know, even if she may not think it, I can say that, you know, Henry had such a big impact on our lives and Sandy, I know, will have just as big of an impact. And uh I can't wait to get to know her and I can't wait for you guys to get to know if she wants to be on camera. I know, as always, I will see you uh when I come for the next review channel. I'm going to so soon.
