I'm a Palestinian Greek Orthodox myself, and all these traditions are part of my childhood and my adulthood as well: the lamb, the eggs (even though we play that game on Easter Sunday and with so many colorful eggs - not just red), the sweets... etc.
I love this video, brings back so many memories.
“She destroy my egg” that Greek dude is hilarious.
You don't eat NO meat??? that's ok I'll make Lamb.. LOL... I love Greek food!!
"you get drunk I'll get fat". My new motto.
"You get drunk, I'll get fat"
Did she just propose to him? ;)
No, but what she did mean to say was "I'll get fatter."
@@charlesmills5247 That statement would require that she is already fat, which she isn't
Gosh, she's so much better than that "comedian" from the Kosher Episode...
you can say that again, that other girl was just desperate
You guys are so tough on that poor girl, I thought she was good. This one has an easy task, she just has to speak- the other one had to try a bit harder
Jomembawang yep
kalamansi raider what is anti Semitic for 500
@D Patel ok baby boom boom the religious man makes you mad
Dawn is awesome, remember seeing her on the BBC back in the day. It's really nice to see her online, great job picking her up Munchies!
I am Greek and i don't even like lamb :\ These potatoes are delicious though...
Also, you will never understand how good virgin olive oil and Feta taste like, until you come in Greece.
And by the way, the eggs are supposed to be red. Really red :P
Πες τα ρε φίλε πες τα !
Σοβαρα δεν σου αρεσει το αρνακι ? Ελα ρε γιατι ετσι....
proteusx agreed! I would have freaked out if my husband had put the lamb on like that!
***** traditionally it's ONLY red - Christ's blood
"That is the most geek place i've ever been, everything is just so...greek"...cutting edge food commentary here!
An excellent introduction to Greek food and Orthodoxy at the same time.
Tsureki = challah bread
Whole lamb ( non smashed bones) = sacrificial Pesah lamb
Eggs still in the Jewish Passover plate
Greek Orthodox are preserving all the Hebrew traditions of Passover in their Christian orthodox Peshah
I adore the Greek culture and food!
As much as I dont embrace my Greek heritage as I should. I have to admit, that Greek Easter was something really special. Almost as good as watching football all day on Thanksgiving or being a kid during Christmas
"They have a lot of food in their religion." A remark reflecting cultural ignorance. The fact is that, like many cultures, They have a lot of religion in their food.
love greece from albania i am born in greece butt greece is to my second home land long live greece from a albanian
hi brother, let's drink some rakia one day
Kosovo je srbija
"Born in greece butt"
My friend is from albania and has aloooot of relatives living in greece and Italy
Every kitchen in restaurants, bakery, etc.. there always a Mexican employee working hard. Salute!!
that lamb's chin is giving me nightmares
the teeth, ewww
That was the tongue.
IMAGINE JUST IF YOU WERE HAVING NIETMER OVER IT WAKE-UP IN THE NIGHT SWEATING 🤣🤣😂
proud to be Eritrean orthodox we have similar easter celebration
Καλή ανάσταση
would love to know more about your traditions :)
*ALL HAIL THE EGG QUEEN!!*
I need to stop getting crushes on all these Muchies journalists.
you do, sounds pretty insane to me
She's married
More of her please! So adorable!
There are Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, Protestant, atheist etc Greeks. They just are not the majority.
Muslims in Greece are Albanian not Greek.
The latino labor behind the greek pastry shop is what allows them to afford to import the ingredients necessary to keep the food culture alive: thus Mexican immigration helps preserve other cultures!
proof please....?
yup that includes frenchies lol
Valencia Di Atlantide: if you are asking that question, you might not live in New York City. Even most "Italia'n" restaurants in NYC use majority Mexican immigrant labor.
lobiapolo2012: Mexican laborers pay taxes, too.
That's so freaking dumb i can't even comment properly
Munchies needs to do more Greek episodes. Especially in Greece
Tsoureki is not a bread it's a ban! LOL!
Koodoos Vice for yet another fascinating new munchies series! Awesome idea to show the connection and history shared by food and religion. Props to vice, munchies and Dawn O'Porter once again hope to see much more
What's with the Greek Tetris music?!
I put some Windex on it.
😂😂😂
Witty
terrible tired movie line man

does she have to sound so obnoxious?... would have enjoyed this video so much more without her ard.
Paul E NO ITS OK
A new show and another shitty obnoxious british chick host...come on!!
NOT THAT BAD
they could just get someone who seems genuinely interested in food, and other cultures rather than this ... i mean why VIce? why?
Why are you people so focused on hating the host than focussing on the food/culture..
Bc she's ruining the good food and culture
Lol - did you guys just jack the soundtrack from SNATCH? Boris the Bullet-Dodger much? Love it.
The guy laughs about anything, outstanding!
I come from England, I like that there's still european ethnic neighbourhoods in New York /US cities.
There's a Greek orthodox chuch/small community in my small city.
My grandma used to do red eggs for easter🤔
Love Greek food.
She is a lovely host! What an interesting episode. Thank you for sharing this.
We do the egg game too ....>Iraqi christian Chaldean & Assyrian lol...... + we dye the egg red too
Egg colliding tradition is also popular in AZERBAIJAN, specifically in Novruz celebration!!))) BTW if you want to get your eyes really red, then boil them with shells of red onion
Seriously looks so good! Great to have funny host :D
I love being Greek and yes I am Greek Orthodox!!! We do a whole lamb on the spit. We use the whole lamb!!!!
So authentic that they've got the Mexicans doing the bread. Lol
bryant contreras Mexicans are cheap and dont complain
ohh boy, just 30 minutes with her. please god grant me this wish
LMAO this was great, loved it. What a cool priest & chef and the host was fun! Definitely gonna try that Marouli salad, looks delicious.
The Greek Orthodox Church is older than the Roman Catholic Church.
My wife's Portuguese neighbor used to make her an Easter challah bread in the form of a baby doll (Boiled egg in shell for the face.).
She told her about the first Easter after WW2 rationing ended, which continued for much longer in parts of western Europe after the armistice than it did in other places, and how the little girls held on to their Easter dolls for that much longer that year, afraid that kind of good food would disappear again.
"I have eaten constantly all day." Day in the life of being Greek.
It's a baby bump:)
->It's a little game that we play, if your egg breaks and my egg stays solid then I'm the wiener.
Yes! We called it "Epper" in my family.
From working on BBC to now munchies on RUclips
Youd be surprised how much money these vice hosts get paid. Look at eddie huang
ShotClanTxter Except Eddie Huang owned restaurants...
@@cheesyflames and Dawn is married to Chris O'Dowd so I'd say shes doing alright
Love this. Greek food is delicious.
am i the only one think that
in this episode she is looking pretty beautifull
holyshit..
Everyone's fasting ...... yeah right! lol
Γιατί, εγώ νηστεύω μισή ώρα πριν την ανάσταση :p
In my Parish we do. We don’t have a festival, everything is in English and Spirituality is more important than ethnicity. Our Parish has tripled in 3 years.
@@longhaulconvert Idk. Would you care to elaborate what does your fast entails? I honestly always facepalm little bit when Christian says about himself that he fasts which means that he eats three times a days instead of five lol. Thats not fasting. Only what Jews and Muslims are doing can be call fasting.
@@technokokos well its not about 3 or 5 meals per day and it's more about what you are allowed to eat, e.g meat or dairy aren't allowed and you can eat fish only on specific dates. Nevertheless if you really want to get technical and smart assy about it there is a type of feasting that can't be maintained for long that doesn't involve any drinking or eating and some more spiritual behavior that you ought to practice during that fasting ( I'm talking about black fasting )
I don't really understand how people cannot like Dawn! She is brilliant.
She's a bit basic. I prefer Vice hosts who make me feel like they would definitely have hard drugs on them.
Im going to embroider the phrase, "you get drunk I'll get fat." with an infinity sign. word.
Thanks for the wonderful presentation. I am so grateful my grandparents came to America.
dawn is so stunning and graceful
She blatantly proposed to him even if it was by a mistake! Lol lol !
I think she's Awesome! Y'all should appreciate and not hate
this was actually good!
You can talk shit about my government all you'd like but there's no place like home. Our people are fantastic, they span the globe, your people are here too and i have nothing but love. Just bring your food, youll fit in fine.
That greece kitchen is so cool
Dawn is so much better than that other comedian (or tries to be) chick that does the other segments
They're just making Challah bread, i thought that lovely woman at 8:00 was a Hassidic from Queens NY lol
I really enjoyed watching your documentary and loved the fact how respectful u r towards everyone. Without being judgmental u seemed to learn different cultures.
you really need to give charlet more shows i miss her
there sweets and pastry are so similar to Arabian culture
with many differents.. PIGGGGGGGGGGG MIAMMMMMM,, sorry guys.. we like pig!
Shirdon Bock Yes indeed. Geeks live in the middle east and Egypt since Alexander the Great. My father was born in Alexandria.
Greeks ruled over the Levant and North Africa before Arabs ever did.
It's so delicious when you grill the whole lamb over a charcoal fire while showing the head.
On the other hand, certain Asians who eat dogs are called savages by Westerners.
Anyway, I'm a huge fan of Greek food.
love the idea of this series and i like the host. looking forward to more in this series.
The chef seems like a nice guy. Very laughey if I can make up a German word.
More Dawn!!
Had to laugh when they walk in the "traditional" kitchen and Central American dudes are rolling the tsoureki
OMG i'm sooooo hungry after watching this.... Thank you Munchies!!
dat spitroast lamb looks good, in a barbarian kind of way :D
She is such a sport!
“Ha ha is a good story”
i'm in love.
Red eggs... In Australia I'm use to my eggs being that colour not the white as standard. Kind of interesting that they need to be dyed.
P.s. people need to stop hating too.
Handling the lamb with rings on 😫
There are also quite a few greek atheists, myself included.
erosmangr74 Sure. And that's why we are the slaves of the banks now.
I always wonder about the Greek culinary. So I will try the lamb and the salad recipes, but I will change the red wine with "non-alcoholic wine". Last week I made Rumanian cooking and I'm glad because it's delicious...tasted the same with the cooking of my Rumanian friend. I hope this time I will also successful in making some Greek cuisines.
That Lambs Tongue Though.... Lol
making food with the ring on, so hygienic
***** maybe if your inbred pea brain can comprehend what is BASIC KITCHEN ETIQUETTE, you might retract your comment
NOT ALL GREEKS ARE ORTHODOX! :D
yy exile believes in trees!!
98% they are
exilefromthefireland 98% at least and we have same stupits coumounist who bilieve only in money
makis pas 98% is what the church wants you to believe; like other absurdities the church wants you to believe that aren't true. Either I only know people who are part of the 2% or your argument is false. Plus, I am not a communist, communist themselves don't 'believe' in money and/or ownership and in the end the food in Greece is delicious and way older than Christianity itself.
exilefromthefireland the food is great here thats for sure . Know about greek comounist is realy fucking reach people and spend money for better food than me ha ha ha :)
this new show is AWESOME
Her baby will be born Greek.
My brother married a woman with greek parents, and WOW, those guys know how to balance big flavours! Another thing, and I mean this in a 100% positive way, they know exactly how to manipulate and/or guilt trip you into eating waaaaay to much.
So true!!
AAYYYYY IM GREEK AND ORTHODOX (but Coptic)
one latin guy makes koulouri thessalonikhs i saw and this!!!!
Love this host. She is so much fun.
The host is actually pretty pleasant!
this woman is like my perfect 10. god damn
+gatomaru She is very pretty :)
+gatomaru a solid 5/7
She is Irish-actor, Chris O'Dowd's wife!
Also, if you are confused, yes greek cuisine shares many things from Turkey because about 200 years ago, it was a part of the ottoman empire
greek bakery, mexican bakers.... seems legit
i'm dead xD hahahaha
Welcome to the really real world!
Yep, like my Priest says...the best workers in his families restaurants are Mexican! Good for them too! The ‘American’ workers are lazy.
you don't have to be greek to make their recipes.
It's a shame they can't help Greece now hahahahaha
hahaha, loved this episode!
Please keep up the good job !
that priest vestment looks really nice, similar to many eastern orthodox churches
dawn o'porter killed it! funny woman
I love this guys laugh :D
Very interesting premise for a show!
Also the salad with lettuce is with finely chopped dill not with origanum
16:41 I don't have a favorite food, but if I had to choose it would be in my top 3 as well.
