After his culinary trip to Jay Fai with Gaggan Anand and getting his sak yant tattoo done, Ed Sheeran is on another quest to try out some Thai 711 snacks. Here’s everything he tasted, and where to buy them for yourself.
British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran seems to have had a busy week after his two concerts in Bangkok. He stopped by at Jay Fai and took a photo with the Indian culinary wizard Gaggan Anand, and even got himself a new sak yant tattoo.
Yesterday, he posted a video on TikTok where he tried out some of the popular Thai snacks sold at the 711 convenience store. Here’s everything he tasted and where to buy these snacks for yourself.

Were you one of those who were tricked into believing that drinking Jele Beauty Drink would make you a beauty? We won’t blame you since we were tricked, too, and the taste wasn’t that bad either. The one that the British singer tried was the Jele Chewy Jelly (Mixed Berries), on which he commented, “it tasted literally like jelly.”

Not to be confused with Jurassic Parks, this dinosaur-shaped seafood-flavoured snack has been thriving with its playful catchphrase that “its deliciousness will never be extinct.” While we’re not certain how true they stay to their own catchphrase, Ed Sheeran on his first try, said it “doesn’t taste like anything.” This is something most Thai people agree with. However, after a few more tries, the singer admitted that he liked the aftertaste of these cute dino-shaped snacks, ranking it as his favourite of the lot.

Last year, this tomato chip brand made its mark on the map thanks to BLACKPINK’s Jisoo posting a story on her Instagram, and suddenly the world went into a frenzy about this tomato flavoured cracker. But did Ed Sheeran love it? Judging from his reaction on the video, it doesn’t seem like he hates nor loves these tomato chips, but he noted that it “definitely tasted like tomatoes.”

For a product that features green tea, Oishi’s Japanese roasted rice flavour doesn’t look like it has any in it. For his review, Ed Sheeran commented the same, pointing out the orange colour of the bottle in contrast to the ‘green tea’ label.

Ever heard of pop-corn-flavoured seaweed? We hadn’t heard of it either, so thank you, Ed. It’s a collaboration between the popular Thai seaweed snack Tao Kae Noi and the pop corn from Major Cineplex Thailand. Unsurprisingly, the singer was clearly perplexed after he tasted it. Clearly, among everything he bought, this was his least favourite Thai snack at 711.
