Rating EVERY Turkish Snack
Chef Nick meant to try Eti Puf, not stock up on it. Holding a whole tray of the marshmallow-topped cookies, he explains: "I accidentally bought way too many of these, so I really hope I like them."
That shopping mistake is one stop in "Rating EVERY Turkish Snack," a quick tasting that moves from tangy potato chips to delicate strands of pomegranate-flavored Pişmaniye and, finally, pistachio baklava. The Short reached about 1.9 million views in its first 14 hours, far beyond his usual first-day audience.
He starts with Lay's yogurt-and-herb chips, picking out dill and mint. The Eti Puf gets a measured response, while the floss halva has him describing how soft, flaky and delicate it is as he pulls its strands apart. For a video built around ratings, texture gets plenty of attention.
The comments have already grown many times busier than a usual full first day. Turkish viewers are marking their country's turn in the tasting series, while one prominent comment makes a specific distinction: baklava is not Turkish delight.
The international snack tour has also taken Nick through German, Japanese and Indian selections. His separate "Which Country Has The Best Candy?" has passed a million views, too.
But this tasting finishes with the Hafiz Mustafa tin. Nick chooses a green pistachio piece with cream, then reaches for another: "I'll probably end up eating the whole box by myself."
