Episode 50, Intermediate English - Bro Stories: The snacks, desserts, and breakfast treats of our childhood. Vocabulario acerca de las botanas, los postres y las delicias de desayuno de nuestra niñez

[00:00:00] Welcome to the No Te Rindas Intermediate English Podcast Home of the Tenaz Intermediate English App Disponible at nothearindaspodcast.os Este son podcast para hispanohablantes que quieren mejorar su combranción aditiva del inglés de los Estados Unidos

[00:00:21] Somos dos hermanos americanos con raíces mexicanas. Soy Gabo, Okib, aquí con mi hermano mayor goyo, Greg Good afternoon everyone, it's super bowl Sunday. I think actually she has flown several thousand miles from Japan and it makes me think of

[00:00:52] Everybody so interested in Taylor Swift going to the super bowl to be with her boyfriend. It reminds me of tracking Santa Claus on Christmas night using Santa trackers. Yeah, the internet like defense department is following her plane or whatever. So what's our topic today, Gabo?

[00:01:16] Today we were going to talk about desserts and treats and sweeties as they call them sometimes. Yes, specifically our memories of these kinds of things from our childhood because Gabo and I have many memories of eating things with sugar and chocolate in them when we were children.

[00:01:41] We usually start our episodes with some vocabulary. And today we are going to but just know that it is a longer list than normal.

[00:01:54] And so it's not a disaster if you cannot remember all of these words and it's okay to go back and listen to it again if you need to. We are going to assume that you already know the most basic words associated with desserts in English.

[00:02:14] We figure that you already know the word cake and the word pie and the word dessert and cookies and donut and ice cream. So we wanted to give you some next level vocabulary that is used when we're talking about desserts and sweets.

[00:02:33] So the first is the word icing which is also called frosting. They're used interchangeably, but icing or frosting. Then we're going to be talking about filling or fillings, filling in a pie for example. And a filling is a filling or anything that goes inside something.

[00:03:08] Speaking of going inside, we're going to talk about something being cream filled. That means that the filling is cream. In this case, it's a cream. But in this case we're talking about a cream dulce, sweet cream not what we would call sour cream.

[00:03:31] Then we have the word pudding, cascel pudding or el buddin. Putting in the United States is a particular type of dessert that is like a custard. It's a very wet, creamy dessert that's usually served in a bowl or it might be a filling, for example, of a donut.

[00:03:58] So you could use all of these first vocabulary words altogether when talking about a donut, for example. So I might say, I bought a cream filled donut. Right? So the donut was was reano the crema and then I might say the icing on top was white vanilla icing.

[00:04:21] El glas de atho. The filling, a reano was pudding vanilla pudding. So el buddin de vanilla. So these are all words that are useful when talking about certain treats that are especially bad for us. You're making my heartbeat faster just talking about this.

[00:04:49] If you're still able to process a couple more, we have a couple more and that is whipped cream. So we know what crema is or crema dulce. So this is crema batida or somewhere they say, not the montada. I've never heard that before but not the montada.

[00:05:08] And then very, very specifically in the south we have expertise. Right? We are experts on cobbler. Now the word cobbler in English has two meanings. One is a sapatero guy who works on shoes. And that's not what this means. This is a post-recrujende de algo.

[00:05:35] Cumom manzana de seresa de mora etc. And the crust la cortessa, the part that's made out of flour is mixed into the fruit. On top it's in the middle it's on the bottom. So it's different from a pie. It's different from a pie.

[00:05:57] And I know that pie is used in Mexico to describe pie in English. Some others may say, tarta, I believe, but this is a little different from that. The game was talking about a donna or a donut that has all these delicious components. I'll add sprinkles, games, sprinkles.

[00:06:25] We're not talking about liquids sprinkling like es polvoria. We're talking about granas, granas. And it's also my understanding that granas is a type of red color in Spanish.

[00:06:42] That's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about little bitty pieces of sugar, various colors that are sprinkled on top. Left on top of a dessert. And then finally one more and that's the word sugary. Sugar. What child doesn't like this word sugary? That's asucarado.

[00:07:48] Okay, so we're going to start talking about our childhood memories of sweets and that starts with breakfast. Okay, what time of day do we eat breakfast in the United States? We usually are going to consider it breakfast time anywhere between about 6 a.m.

[00:08:14] And I don't know, 11 a.m. 11 a.m would be closer to what we would call brunch. But if someone sleeps really late, they might get up and eat breakfast at right at 11, which is about the time I'm usually thinking about lunch. So when we were children,

[00:08:38] we would be together on the weekends eating breakfast together. So we would be eating breakfast a little bit later. But yeah, normally a person's going to eat breakfast in the US 637, 710 a.m. before they leave for work, but as kids on Saturday, especially.

[00:08:59] Oh, wow. We would have breakfast 9 to 11 while watching cartoons on TV. Right, right. And by far the most common thing I remember eating for breakfast as a child was cereal or cereals, particularly sugary cereals, which would be cereals as cereals.

[00:09:28] So we did of course, I remember there being a lot of pressure to eat healthier breakfast cereals, for example, raising brain, which I really like now. But at the time when I was a kid, I remember thinking, I wish I could have a sugary cereal.

[00:09:50] Something with color in it, something with marshmallows in it or chocolate in it, oh, don't use right, or marshmallows. And so we know that the cereals exist in other countries. You know what lucky charms or frosted flakes are or count chocolate or boobarie. What else, Gabe?

[00:10:21] Well, like what is it? What's another cereal? Yeah, fruity, look nice. Yeah, fruity, loopy, right? Yeah, okay. So I can remember, you know, I was not often allowed to have those by my mother.

[00:10:35] And so when I would go over to my best friend's house, his mother let him have whatever he wanted for breakfast. And I remember he had all these boxes of sugary cereals.

[00:10:49] And I even remember spending the night one time with him and another mutual friend and the mutual friend saying, Willy always has so many good sugary cereals. And we were agreeing that it was wonderful that we could come and sneak and eat marshmallowy cereal.

[00:11:12] Yes, my favorite marshmallowy cereal. That's hard to say. Was is lucky charms, lucky charms with the different shapes of marshmallow. I feel terrible after I eat it. I feel it makes me feel bad. But while I'm eating it, so something...

[00:11:37] Something that I've been investigating before this episode is the content of sugar. In a series of sweets. And we want to say that of course, they are sweets.

[00:11:56] If there is much sugar in this series in the United States, if it comes here to live and how cereal these cereals are. They are very bad for you. However, what our investigation revealed is... The cereals in Mexico, in Argentina, in Spain, are so many sugar like here.

[00:12:26] There is no difference. In the content of sugar, here in other countries, there is no sugar in there. Wow, this cereal is really different here. No, it's more or less equal. Second, the documents we read. Another breakfast food.

[00:12:50] I like the way you put this game when we were preparing. Would you call it a flattened breakfast pastry? A big flat doughnut with no hole. That's right, a big flat doughnut with no hole is the style of breakfast. Now in English, these would be called a Danish.

[00:13:12] Honey bun, or my favorite as a child, was the bare claw. And like Gabriel said, these are basically doughnuts that are flat with no hole in them. And great memories of drinking milk with you Gabe and eating these dessert-y breads as a child.

[00:13:41] And if I want to eat these now, I can go to any gas station in my town, which is called Marietta. And I can find them. And these are super popular in Mexico under the name, for example, Bimbo.

[00:14:02] So if you are accustomed to seeing products from Bimbo on the shelf in an also, for example, that is very similar to what Gabe and I ate as a child for breakfast. And I remember Gabe that Dad would take us to what he called the used bread store.

[00:14:23] You remember that? The used bread store? Yes, it's a banana de dea. They pankadu kado. So it's bread that is about to expire or is not very fresh. And so it was heavily discounted, right? They discontal.

[00:14:45] And so we would buy sweets, sweet breads and regular bread for making sandwiches at this place. And you got a lot for your money. Okay, and we have a lot of money. See, it was a... Mesquino. It's not my idea. It's more of a mess.

[00:15:11] The rich people in the world, when we bought those filled pies. You remember those filled pies that we didn't have? So there would be rich people from Manzana, from Seresa, from... Ah, how do you say? The Boudin de Chocolate, Rekordo, Boudin de Banilla,

[00:15:35] I, um, arrandano that blueberry filling in these pies. And man, you get one of those for breakfast. You and I would break it open. And that fruit would be warm from the microwave. And oh, it was delicious. It was delicious.

[00:15:53] Now, every day at work, I work in an office and a call center with lots of people. And there is a... a vending machine, a machine where people can buy things like potato chips or breakfast pastries like this.

[00:16:13] And every day I see people drinking coffee and either eating these breakfast pastries that you and I are talking about. Honey buns or Danish's or Bearclaws. But they often also get those... filled pies that you were talking about. We usually call them fried pies.

[00:16:33] Fried so is, um, it's when pie flito. So it makes it even healthier. You're taking something as healthy as a pie and then you're frying it to make it even healthier. But of course, they're super delicious. But I see people eat them every day.

[00:16:50] So very common breakfast, seafoods here and again, unfortunately not good for us. No. And I found the word Danish. I'm sorry that we didn't put it in the list earlier. A Danish is a boiled danis, a boiled danis if you know.

[00:17:07] If you have that, where you're listening from. Well, I need to tell one more story before we move on to the next one. I have a very clear memory of us all going to the grocery store together.

[00:17:21] You and Dad and I, and we saw this new kind of sugary cereal and it was called Rocky Road. Now, Rocky Road is a type of ice cream.

[00:17:37] It's like a flavor of ice cream and it has a lot of pieces of chocolate in it and some other things. And this was a cereal that was based on this ice cream. So it had like, I remember it had little chocolate covered marshmallows in it. That's right.

[00:17:57] That's what makes Rocky Road different from chocolate ice cream is that it has marshmallows in it. Forgive me for being an expert on this detail. But I haven't investigated this with a spoon for many years. Rocky Road means chocolate and it means bambonis marshmallows in the ice cream.

[00:18:20] Sorry, please continue. So you know, Dad bought us this this small-ish box which just means pretty small, relatively small, box of Rocky Road cereal and we went home and it was the afternoon. And I remember by the time it was about 9pm that night,

[00:18:44] we had to sheepishly admit to Dad that all of the cereal had been eaten. We had eaten every bit of the box of cereal even though it was not breakfast time.

[00:18:59] We went home and ate that cereal as a snack or as a dessert because it was so sugary and delicious. And knowing our father and as a father and myself, right, you buy food with a strategy.

[00:19:15] You're like, okay, I can mentally describe this cereal to one breakfast, two breakfast, three breakfast. And then, you know, we don't need something else for breakfast that day.

[00:19:28] And you and I, you're saying, eight all of the cereal before one breakfast could be checked off in his mental list. How did he react? He was very upset. He was like, what? You ate the whole box. And of course, you were older.

[00:19:51] So you always caught the majority of the blame because he just assumed that I was, you know, if you said it was okay, I was going to do it and I don't remember exactly how we were,

[00:20:03] but I'm thinking you were probably, you know, 1314 and I was probably seven or eight. And anyway, just a funny memory. Yeah, there's something about a second bowl of cereal that's just so satisfying. It's just it's like, oh, I'm no longer hungry. I'm just eating this because it's delicious.

[00:20:21] It tastes good. Yes, it tastes good. All right, we're going to move on now to desserts. Although you may have believed, oh, you're in dis that we were already talking about desserts. No, we were talking about breakfast. Not much, not much distinction here.

[00:20:44] So we want to talk about cobblers first. We live in the south and in the south, people have not always had a lot of money. And so they didn't have a lot of ingredients necessarily.

[00:20:57] And so one technique that they use was just flour and some milk and some sugar and some fruit. And you just baked that. You know, it wouldn't have been something that had a lot of yeast in it or certainly any sort of cream or fancy, you know,

[00:21:19] flavoring or chocolate. It was just fruit and sugar and milk and flour. And that's called a copler. And at my home now when we have Thanksgiving or Christmas. Because my. The generation prior to me is still alive, still cooking. They always have a copler.

[00:21:42] How about you, do you guys eat a lot of cobbler at Thanksgiving or Christmas? Yes, we get lots of fruit cobblers and have that with for dessert at Christmas or Thanksgiving. And probably the most popular copler that you can buy in the store is peach cobbler. What case?

[00:22:05] Do you guys know? So I'm at a cotton in the University of Canada. We usually get one that's made of sort of a mixture of fruits because and it goes really well with ice cream or whipped cream. Or whipped cream. Yum.

[00:22:29] Now when we were children, we would go to two different grandmother's homes. One was your great grandmother called grandmother Miller and she was your grandfather's mother. And she was still alive when we were little kids. Our dad and your mom were still married.

[00:22:53] We would go to grandmother Miller's house, grandmother Miller. And then the other grandmother that we would go to was my stepmother's mother whose name was Arlene. We would go to her house for holiday meals.

[00:23:12] And what I want to stress to the oint that today is that it's it's grandmother's that set the standard they they create the comparison for desserts for everything else in my memory. Because grandmother Miller's desserts and our leans desserts were phenomenal. So good.

[00:23:37] Yeah, different kinds of pies and cakes. German chocolate comes to mind. Coconut. I'm trying to remember grandma Miller's desserts. I mean it's a long time ago for me. She would make banana pudding which is kind of a. Oh, and a pudding.

[00:23:58] Very popular thing in the south and it involves these this vanilla pudding. And these these vanilla flavored cookies and of course chopped up banana all together with a lot of whipped cream and it's still such a treat if you can get banana pudding.

[00:24:17] It's not all that come into to find any more because it's hard to make it's a lot of work. I'm trying to set for you oint they a bar right that's very high right a standard that's very high quality that's very high.

[00:24:33] When you went to Thanksgiving dinner or Easter dinner or Christmas lunch. You were the happiest you were going to be with regard to dessert. Now, Gabe, I would like to draw a contrast to the opposite. Where you were the most deception although the most disappointed.

[00:24:57] And that is a restaurant called Morrison's. And there's another one called pickadilly. You know, if you called cafeteria's. But cafeteria's style cafeteria is not a coffee.

[00:25:18] It's a cafeteria in the United States is a place where you you go through a line along line with lots of food behind glass. And you tell the person what you want and they put it on plates for you and hand you the plate under the glass.

[00:25:37] No, I'm a sero. No, I'm much service for the messa to escorhes ae in la fila de los cocineros. Yo quisiera un plato de esto. Yo quisiera un plato de eso, etc.

[00:25:53] So one thing that every child goes through when they're in the line at one of these cafeteria's is you have to run through. You have to go through the line of desserts and they look fantastic.

[00:26:13] I remember a chocolate pie with a cream whipped cream built up on top of it. I remember a chocolate cake with a thick chocolate icing piled up on top of it and gave these were big slices too.

[00:26:31] There was like, oh, this is way more than you're going to get at your dinner table at home. You're on vacation right? You're out at a restaurant. Get one of these 900 calorie slices of heaven.

[00:26:49] And my father would always say, our father would always say, you don't want to get that. You're going to be disappointed. And sure enough, you would take the cake or the pie back to your seat to back to your table and gave it. It tasted like nothing.

[00:27:07] It was the cheapest, most low quality diluted. It was just color. It was just color and no flavor. And so you know, you would be like, this is terrible. I don't remember getting desserts at Morrison's because I always loved to get vegetables so much. I don't know why.

[00:27:34] I guess I just understand now that when I cook for my child, that a lot of times if it's just me cooking for her, I usually only make one vegetable. And of course, I my mother was a single mother and it was just me.

[00:27:48] So I understand her not making a whole lot of vegetables. But I remember going to Morrison's and I would be, I would always ask for several vegetables. And I guess maybe I don't, maybe I was too full to eat much dessert. I find that hard to believe.

[00:28:02] Well, you, you got spared, man. You're lucky. Because it was just extra calories and sadness, you know, just extra calories and melancholy. It was terrible. All right, we've, we've talked about breakfast and we've talked about desserts. And we need to say that when we had desserts,

[00:28:32] that was usually after six, six, thirty, seven o'clock at night. That's about when we eat supper and it's pretty common I think to have a dessert in the US after the main meal at night. I certainly mentally expect one.

[00:28:51] I'm like, oh, I just, I just went through the trouble of eating supper. I require, I require a dessert now. I've earned a dessert and of course I have not earned anything. That's what dessert literally means. It means something that you deserve that you've earned.

[00:29:12] So it's definitely kind of baked into our consciousness as Americans that, you know, you deserve this. You should you ate your food and now you should try to eat this. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, love dessert. Now in between breakfast and supper, of course, there's the whole day.

[00:29:33] Okay, let's talk about snacks. Let's talk about snacks. Let's talk about snacks. Well, many endos. Or botanas. I think is a lighter version of a snack. So botana or a median nut. What time would you say?

[00:29:50] You expect to eat a snack or that we ate snacks as kids? I remember mostly having snacks sort of in, in at the points that were sort of halfway in between meals.

[00:30:05] A lot of schools for with little children will have a snack time, you know, sort of mid-morning or mid afternoon. And when you're at home and you get a snack, you might say to your mother,

[00:30:21] I'm really hungry and it's only 330 in the afternoon and I know supper isn't until six. I'm so hungry and she might say, well, why don't you have a snack to have a snack? You over. Yeah, that's a Thai dish. Oh, it was his great expression.

[00:30:39] And that just means to help you keep from being so hungry, that, you know, that you end up breaking into the cabin to eating supper food early. I love this that you pointed out, Thai, you over. Now let's talk, that's like a book in to me.

[00:30:57] That's like the beginning of a thing. The other end of that thing is you're going to ruin your dinner. So, Thai, Thai do you over means this will keep you from being overly hungry until we eat supper.

[00:31:10] But if you wait too long and you eat something right before dinner, especially if you eat a lot of it, your mother would say, You're going to ruin your dinner. Don't eat that. You're going to ruin your dinner. Right. Are you going to ruin your appetite?

[00:31:27] It's another thing. Yeah, which means you're not going to be hungry because you ate too many snacks. And this, this would happen with my child.

[00:31:38] I would not realize it, but she would want to have a snack and so she would go into the cupboard where we keep snacks and she would get a bag of tortilla chips.

[00:31:48] And she would start watching TV and eating those tortilla chips and it would be about 3.45 or 4. And I would come in there and she would have eaten most of the bag. And I would say, Ella, oh no, you're going to ruin your appetite.

[00:32:03] You've eaten this whole bag of chips. She would always say, oh, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing. That's just karma though, right? That's just, you're being punished for eating the rocky road cereal from when we were kids.

[00:32:23] What are some snacks you remember eating as a young man? Oh, boy. So there's a company in Tennessee called Little Debbie Snackcakes. And they made and still do make for a very reasonable price. Different kinds of little pastries.

[00:32:46] So they were called Swiss cake rolls, nutty bars, remember nutty bars. Oh, meal cans and what's our crunch? I said oatmeal cakes and star crunch. Those were the oatmeal pie and star, I remember star crunch. I did not like star crunch, but other people did. I did.

[00:33:17] I got in huge trouble. Yeah, I remember one time dad got, dad always got little Debbie's for us. So I remember getting in huge trouble with dad over the little Debbie or little Debbie's because I like to eat star crunch and dad always got them for us.

[00:33:38] And I would be watching television and the afternoon and I would slip into the kitchen and get a star crunch. They came wrapped in plastic and in cellophane. And I remember I would tear into the star crunch packaging and eat the star crunch greedily. Yeah.

[00:33:58] And then because I was so lazy, I wouldn't get up and take the paper or the plastic wrapping back into the kitchen where the trash was. I would just carefully and quietly push it down in between the couch cushions. Oh, the couch. No, you didn't.

[00:34:22] I just remember dad found a bunch of cellophane wrappers when he sat down and oh, he was so mad. He, he was about as mad as when we ate all the cereal that day and one sitting.

[00:34:36] Can you imagine the sound of when he sat down and you're three or four star crunches were in there? It was just the wrapper but still. You have passed that on through Uncle genetics to one of my children. By the way, I find wrappers in my house.

[00:34:59] Thanks a lot. Sorry. All right. So that's little babies and then another one is cookies. Yeah. All kinds of cookies that we enjoyed eating. And here are some names of companies you probably have these companies where you live to.

[00:35:15] Keybler, Nestle and chips a hoi chocolate chip cookies from any of those companies. Put a smile on my face for sure. And then two other types of cookies that I remember are. Fig newtons which is Cieruela fig fig newtons. And of course Oreos dipped in milk.

[00:35:44] Oh, he has dipped in milk. So those were very good. Yeah, Oreos they call if you buy the generic Oreos which is what I do. The local grocery store carries these generic ones that are just as good. In other words, they're not the official ones.

[00:36:00] They call them chocolate sandwich cookies. Chocolate sandwich cookies. Yeah, that sounds almost healthy right? You know, I'm having a sandwich. I'm having a sandwich. It's a small sandwich.

[00:36:13] But I remember I used to work with a guy that told me that he said that he could eat a cheeseburger for lunch and with chocolate chip cookies after for dessert. He could eat that every day for the rest of his life in D.A.P.

[00:36:31] That was the perfect young. That was the first, the perfect level of delicious. And that's the side note. My mother who is a very regimented person, now that she's Hobi Lala, she's retired. She eats five chocolate chip cookies every day after she eats her dinner or her supper.

[00:36:56] And she counts them out and eats them. But she looks forward to them. She'll say, oh, it's time for me to eat my cookies. And then she drinks a glass of milk. But I think it's so cute. She figured out that if she would measure them out,

[00:37:14] it would keep her from overeating, which is really smart. So mom has gotten skinnier over time. Yeah, a lot of times. I've got this fatter. I measure out my cookies. All right. Well, it's time for our quiz. Case, set, get in.

[00:37:33] And set, ever, do you know what's sticking in your brain after you? And you're brain after one hearing, right? One listening to our episode. Question number one. Gabe the standard, the base level of excellence for desserts in our memory comes from a.

[00:38:01] A favorite restaurant of ours called Morrison's B. Our grandmother's homes at at holidays. Or see the local bakery down the street where we used to ride our bicycles. Hmm, the standard for the best desserts.

[00:38:28] Well, it definitely wasn't Morrison's because you said the there cakes and pies looked good, but that they taste terrible. I do have vague memories of that now. They had really bad pudding. So, and I don't remember us riding bikes to a bakery.

[00:38:45] So I'm going to say it was the grandmothers in our lives that really set the standard for the most delicious dessert. And it was the desserts that they would make at holidays. That is correct. That is correct. All right. I have a question for you, Gooyal.

[00:39:05] Question number two. In this episode we talked about a cafeteria, a cafeteria, which is spelled just like Cafe de Dia. So in the United States, is a cafeteria a place where you A get coffee? And tea? And maybe some pastries?

[00:39:28] Is it B a place where you would get ice cream primarily and maybe some other desserts? Or is it C? A type of restaurant where you have a choice of foods that you pick while moving through a line. Hmm. A cafeteria.

[00:39:54] You kind of describe something that sounds like Starbucks where you get coffee and tea in pastries. That's not a cafeteria. A cafeteria is where you move through a line and ask the co-signators to hand you something as you make a choice.

[00:40:18] You make a choice by looking at what they are offering. That's correct. You're exactly right even though it seems like it should be a place where you buy coffee and tea or have those as your main thing. Although you can get coffee and tea at a cafeteria.

[00:40:37] It is primarily a restaurant without waiters where you go and get your food on the front end through a line by pointing it what you want through a window or a sheet of glass. So anyway, I thought you did really well on that. Thank you. Thank you.

[00:40:56] All right, last question. Which of these desserts or foods is an example of a breakfast food that gave a night would eat? That's kind of like a flat donut with no hole in it. Hey, chocolate chip cookies. B, lucky charms or C, a Danish.

[00:41:40] A breakfast food we ate as kids that was kind of like a flattened out donut with no hole. Okay, so that wouldn't have been chocolate chip cookies.

[00:41:50] Chocolate chips cookies are flat and they have no hole but they're not really donut like they tend to be crispy crunchy and donuts aren't crispy and crunchy unless they've been left outside too long.

[00:42:04] Let's see, lucky charms are one of our favorite types of breakfast cereals and although some of the pieces have holes in them that's not the same.

[00:42:15] I'm going to go with a Danish, a Danish is a breakfast food that we had as kids and I guilty admit still I occasionally have that is like a large flattened out donut with no hole. That is correct. I like cherry cheese, Danishes. Oh, I'm so bad. Delicious.
