$16K Banana-eating Lessons with China’s Wealthiest - Ep. 2 | The Bling Dynast | GQ
Director of Photography: Shana Hagan
I legimatetly thought there was gonna be a banana that cost $16,000 bahahahaha
prince cupcake same lol
yes under my pants 💦💦
prince cupcake me too
Me as well
prince cupcake Lol I thought it was prepared in an expensive way with gold or cavier or truffle 🤔
Nope just a normal banana eating it in a weird way😂
Well she went to Harvard Business School, of course she knows how to make money doing stuff like this
Susan Liu Well said. 😂
Susan Liu first thing come into my mind after she said that she went to harvard bussiness school
She’s one big show off lol
Good for her she’s making bank
sam k yes... and no. She’s definitely showing off how better off she is but she’s careful to mention that she’s frivolous and she’s targeting people who are already rich. Aka people who are likely to meet with royalty and the old rich.
Just saved $16,000 by watching this video
Haha what will u spend that $16,000 on
Megan Fox more bananas
Yesss
Feelin' like a winner rn. 💯
Rich people be like: i would rather spend 16k for eating banana manner than donating for good causes
This is the real Crazy Rich Asian
Hi sab
rich? maybe. But crazy that is for certain
More like Crazy Rich Dumbasses
More "crazy" than "rich" lol
Emphasis on the "crazy"
Well, atleast we got to see how to properly eat a banana in a etiquette manner and we didn't have to fork over 16k..Thanks youtube.
Victor Soto which high class restaurant serves an unpeeled banana on a fancy plate like that?
Actually that 'skill' is useless and we wasted our time watching the video and ads, so I think we are the chumps here.
Victor Soto literally I don’t know a single rich person who eats a banana this way. So ridiculous
Watches video while eating crumbs of chips off my shirt*
taetaeholic Hello fellow Army 😄 Follow me on Instagram it's doseofkpop18. It's a kpop meme page hehehe
Literally me
The story of my life
taetaeholic I see you everywhere😂
😂
$16k ,one could buy a banana plantation and hire someone to peel them with that kind of money
Sanjana P they definitely couldn’t. 16k can’t even buy an empty plot. What are you smoking.
@@goldaria9228 The video was made in China . Do you know what you can buy there? Have you ever wanted to know?
Prottoy Prottoy fake milk?
gold aria well, i did 😂 how bout that?
@@goldaria9228 you can buy quite a large plot in india i can tell ya
Basically this whole video saves you 16k
HI TAE!
Humdii 😂😂😂😂
Phew! Now I can redirect my banana peeling funds
Yeah they sell those books on amazon...
Taee
She said many people ask why pay so much to learn to eat banana. She explained they teach more than that.
She won’t be happy with the title of this video.
The producer said to her that the title would be "How to eat like royals in China."
😂 but people care more about a $16k banana than royals in China. They wanted more views.
No one eats a banana like this.
Also, during what formal occasion is anyone served a whole banana?
If you're this rich and pretentious, have your servants peel and chop the banana for you.
Nicholas Miller your absolutely right ma man.
Nicholas Miller but they need to show off their $16000 worth of fancy banana peeling skills 😂😂😂
Nicholas Miller
Well that’s actually interesting, most fine dining uses victorian era etiquette, a lot of french influences in it. Because of this we have very strict rules as well as expectations- in the west. But her market is NOT the west her market is the neo rich in the east. There are no rules set in stone quite yet because culturally it’s probably in creation!
I thought the exact same thing 😹 What formal breakfast/brunch/lunch/dinner is going to have whole bananas for you to eat?
Brittney E i mean, we serve whole artichoke... those should also not be eaten served whole 😂
Why are they learning Western etiquette though? I'm sure Chinese aristocracy have their own etiquette, after all they used to have so many emperors
Only problem is that the rich kind of disappeared during the communist era. Now nearly everyone that is rich in China is nouveau-riche, so the only really modernly applicable example they have of how to be high class is western.
China only very recently joined the modern world. It makes sense that they wouldn't have their own well defined rules and high class culture yet.
Chinese emperors used the Russian method for aristocracy. "Enemies everywhere!!!" -Ivan IV- (kill them all)
Do you use chopsticks in high end European restaurants? These peole are super rich. Do you think they don't travel around the world. Lol
Globalization
Cultural Revolution, man...ancient traditions were vilified and most of those aristocrats were murdered...
Now I can look like an idiot while eating a banana.
Don't feel lonely there 😂
But you can feel rich
First I thought it was weird to eat a banana with a knife and fork.....then I thought, who the fuck would serve a banana at a fancy dining table?!
cinlocybin I mean frankly the whole idea of etiquette is just to be show yourself as an educated and elegant individual, but the idea of banana in knife and fork is plainly absurd, it’s almost ranting to students about being “too rich” , can’t believe they can pretend to be oblivious to so much going on in the world and focus on learning something as meaningless as this gets
Same!! With the peel!
Me
Ahahaha! 😂
Yeah! Plus, if it is at a fancy dining table, they wont serve it whole...it’s usually cut up in pieces. So highly unlikely for the host to prepare a whole banana.
"Why eat a banana like normal people when you could spend an overpriced amount of money looking like a total idiot by cutting up a banana?"
I guess ... cos u can ... I mean they have money and want to spend it on something other that cars, house, ect ... so what do u do ? go eat a banana with a fork.
So true 🤣😂
😂😂😂
my thought exactly
i did try cutting the banana and eating it with a fork and for the reason is i'm bored and i kinda enjoy eating in a different ways .
Mum says " never trust a lass who eats a banana like this"...
@Karbi Kid maybe not anymore. Once upon a time to some extent this was true.
@@Bhupali1 yeah but then the lesson is outdated - it's still useless
Ur mum just jealous with her and can't afford life like her. I know you would rather have a life like her, than being a hypocrite poor loser.
She went to harvard and shes teaching people to eat bananas? lol what.
Taylor Stephenson her instructors must be intelligent primates! Lol
For a $16000 per person class I would say she’s putting her degree to good use.
Taylor Stephenson everything is probably just fake lol
Taylor Stephenson she is a genius. she convinced people to pay her all that money for banana eating lessons.
she can charge 30k for those english skills
Dying with all the comment..... God, I love being poor😂
Marina Schmolling no If anyone is poor it's the chicks that waste money joining this video
Ty caso 😂😂
Marina Schmolling Go to school then
Marina Schmolling yes we are so creative and interesting.
Why must Chinese people become "western refined" when the traditional non-manchu culture was pretty refined and even better than the swiss or french. Also why use european porcelain when chinese porcelain (old) is even better? Idk China is loosing itself to the West and these rich people have lost contact with their historical heritage (thanks to Mao an his damn cultural revolution) and are trying to imitate westerners when they have an example next door (Japan) of how to preserve your culture and still be sophisticated or refined (although they go to the other extreme, yet is an example)
Exactly
Rich Chinese kids (usually the 2nd generation rich) spend lots of time in prestigious western school just so they can boast about the fact that they can afford it. Overall the new generation doesn't think very highly of their own culture but idolise anything "western". Whenever I'm in China and the topic of me being an European born Chinese comes up, it calls for lots of "wow" and an immediate social status boost. It's pretty peculiar and a bit sad I reckon
European culture is the most ethical culture. Some cultures in the world have women abusing, animal abusing, pet eating. Like eating dog, cat is China's culture. Women have no right to go to university is muslim countries's cultures. I dont respect those cullture. I see European culture is most ethical with gentlemen and ladies ( i'm asian)
European culture is not better or more superior to anyone elses. The preservation of EVERYONES culture is extremely IMPORTANT.
monzorella1 this video is cringeworthy 😂😂
does not apply to western-culture-wannabes chinese
@@Rin-le7cx VERY!!!
I don't believe this.
True yet every culture in the world pretty much has this false idea that we are better and we are all rich and fancy. It's hilarious really.
This s*** is why Marie Antoinette had her head cut off.. 😂😂😂
I’m dyingg
Let them eat cake
Omggggg I was thinking the same!!!!
I'd like to eat her cake.
taylor lavigne No, actually Matie Antoinette's head were cutted off because she tried to escape to Austria. Before the royal family journey to Austrian Netherlands, they're perfectly fine. The people want Constitutional Monarchy, the revolutionaries still want Louis XVI as head of state, because losing him means losing all treaties and starting over is just too hard (proved by how United States refused joining French war against the European Coalition because their treaties were made with King Louis XVI). But they decide to abandon (or escape) to Austrian lands (Marie's ancestral lands), and this is seen as treason by the french people. It's not because they eat well or dress fancy, it's because they abandon their own people in time of troubles.
so... I just got to watch a free 16k lesson? nice...
Haha
+WhatUwant? lmao
lol I guess your right
Well you saw like 3 minutes of a 15 day program, but i bet that was the only interesting part of the lesson
Franz Isley well, they actually showed u the cutting of the banana so... now I can eat banana like a filthy rich people
Anyone come here thinking two chainz was going to be in this?
Meh
Yea
Lol xD yea
+Brendan Ham lol !! yes .. my first reaction, Where is 2chainz ?? he's gonna want to tap that ! :D :D
+Brendan Ham It would have been hilarious
Manners- "don't bring yourself to the plate.
Me - face in the plate
Slayer Manners: "Do not bring your face to the plate."
Me: *Brings plate to my face*
Ha ha ha and me - : pick up food in palm and eat them with fingers of the other hand 😂
Audrey Clarissa lol
* faceplates *
Bring the whole plate to yourself
This lady is a scam artist. Unbelievable!
No, Chua Lee, she's merely a human being who's in every way superior to you and whom you should take as a role model.
@@Tubebrerry So you're saying, you know a random person in a video and also a person who commented on that well enough that you can compare them? I would consider it as a foolish talk.
Prottoy Prottoy, your consideration of my talk is unfortunately ill-considered, and, furthermore, there's no reason for anyone to believe that what you find either foolish or not foolish is in any way reliable or relevant. My analysis both of the talented woman in the video and of the trolling commenter who remarked upon the talented woman are spot-on and fully warranted, reflecting my excellent and well-seasoned judgment of human character-types. But, just the same, thank you ever so much - your opinion's highly valued by me, I can assure you, even if not necessarily useful on a practical level. All the best!
@@Tubebrerry Eating half of a banana with a fork is a talent?
No. She's providing a service for a group of people that may travel abroad or want to be able to present themselves in a different light. Even people in the US are paying big money to learn this etiquette as they climb up the success ladder. They start taking wine classes, cooking classes, exercising, buying nicer clothing, hire style consultants, etc. It's all about image. The Chinese are tapping into that.
These wealthy girls will never be served a banana that's not peeled . Let's be real
to poor to know btw
That has multiple meanings lol
BittenBiscuit Little did you know. Peeling bananas is a pastime activity for rich people, it's not a necessity, but acting like you're a 'working class' is a trend right now.
Oof
I can hear the zippers coming down !
my mom can teach me manners and etiquette.....psht get outta here
Alamda Ali look who’s talking
Probably arent rich
Lol samee
$16,000 for a class on “etiquette”.. nah fam this ratchetness in my dna
Ruvena Loganathan um...you didn't watch video at all?
I just ate a 2-day old cold burrito.
Rohanjeet Das luxury food if you ask me
Rohanjeet Das I ate mom's spaghetti
His palms are sweaty,knees weak, arms are heavy.
Rohanjeet Das I’m eating peanut butter out of the jar with a plastic knife
OMG SAME IT WAS GOOD
Ron Jet hehehheheheh
Service to the country really??? How delusional can one be 😏
Uhmm when Chinese people are literally being kicked out of restaurants bec. How they eat abroad, she really is doing a service for her country.
Alvin Rey Delos Santos but it’s not for those people being kicked out of restaurants. If for the nouveau riche Chinese who could buy said restaurant and shut it down with the blink of an eye. How is that a service to the country?
If you lived with Chinese people you would not say delusional. The Chinese have a long way to come after the cultural devolution. Sometimes it is best to inform oneself before making statements that confirm your ignorance to others.
@@theirishcontrarian4626 how inofrmed are you lol, im actually chinese and grew up in china for 11 years. Here some random irish guy claims to know enough by living near some american born or where the western hemisphere u live in.
Shhhhh she’s a scam artist, and a pretty good one at that
step 1 peel the banana step 2 eat the banana step 3 throw away the peel step 4 give me 16k
Hahahahahahahaha
Wat a rip off. Bitch!
jojoinhere ill do it for $350 banana included
LMFAO
😂
TheNoobintraining I'm the 667th like, I feel like I ruined it 😂
”This is me sitting in the front rowhhuhuhhuhuhu” She is what I would call an overall unlikable person.
lmao
😂😂😂
Bahahaha
Why she seems very clasy and respectable
Valentin Tafrov no she doesn't. Respectable how? Nit even classy.
you have to be smoking ketchup sandwiches to eat a banana with a fork and knife
"ketchup sandwiches " LMAO
This comment just made my day 😂😂😂
+Fancybeats R the hosts should be bitchslaped anyway if they serve you a banana which isn't peeled and expect you to eat it with a knife and fork
+Fancybeats R you just made me actually laugh out loud
Sentinel Spark lol :)
Her accent comes and goes. LOL
Cause she’s faking it probably
so? That isn't a bad thing. As long as you are understood there is nothing wrong with accents.
She’s insufferable
rori g I agree. There is nothing wrong with accents. It’s the fact that she is faking an accent is the issue and quite hilarious
Just another shill.
This is what I like to call a waste of money.
how to eat a banana
step 1 : grab a banana
step 2: peel the banana
step 3: eat the banana
step 4: Thow away the peel or give it to plants in your garden lol
A Cup of Tae With Two Sugas That's a savage way of eating a banana 🙄.
No you have to pay 16k dollars and learn how to eat it
Weirdo.....you eat the while thing
so it's not waste. It bring them the joy. Their money, they happy to pay for it. You are poor so u wont understand the rich
Talking about manners while also looking down on poor people or rich people who don’t believe in the same “refined” ideology she has. I’d like to give her a free course on humanity.
And a HUGE slap on the face, just in case...
Lol true
I believe in the beginning she was talking about the new money in China that are known to still have horrible manners but tons of money.
what do you mean by Japan? It is China that she is talking about
Trang Nguyen Sorry my mistake I meant China. Don't know how I made that mistake being they are so different. My apologize.
Learning 'proper etiquette' seems like the most pretentious thing you could do. What use is it?
So you think it sets you up on an imaginary pedestal.
Anyone with half a brain should be able to realise that just because you conduct and speak in a seemingly more prestigious manner, that it doesn't necessarily entail your capital worth - let alone worth as a person.
She's created the perfect business for herself. Minimal effort on her part, exclusive club that only the rich can pay their way into, and well she's fooling them with her credentials. Let the mindless rich waste their money. She's the perfect con-artist.
Someone’s poor obv
Gotta give her props for scamming people so well.
Lady: “I went to Philips Exeter Academy, Georgetown University in Washington DC, and also Swiss Finishing School”
Me: ... I once went to Canada
Ariblake lol my sis goes to Philips Exeter
And she teaches how to peel a banana...Brilliant!That finishing school has a good billboard tagline for advertisements
And who would like to say "I went to China?" I hope she and her ilk will say that one day. Along with "I went to Rwanda," "I went to Denmark" and "I went to Colombia" equally.
China richest 1% is 20 million people lol
Dan EstBack oh boy lol
Dan EstBack more like 14 million. Their population is 1.4 billion.
But it isn't the 1% for them
@@A-rk3dn That's because the dollar has more value than the rmb. The top 1% in Europe have more wealth than the 1% in the US.
Dan EstBack LMAO TRUE THO
Humans are fascinating creatures aren't they
LMAO
I legitly hate this. Yes, I do believe Chinese people need mannerism classes, but this ridiculous class is just erasing our own culture. Why can’t we keep our culture while having manners? You don’t see Japanese people losing their culture while still maintaining their manners. In fact Japanese mannerisms goes even beyond Western mannerisms, while still keeping their culture. I’d love for Chinese people to not just copy others (especially Westerners), we have our own culture and it’s beautiful and amazing beyond comprehension. Why not keep our culture and have amazing manners too? Drinking and eating out of fancy French plates and cups does not make us more cultured or developed, in fact at the end of the day this just erases the beauty of our own history.
What are you talking about? This video is about a class on mannerism and etiquette, and here you are talking about culture. They are not the same thing. Is this video erasing the Chinese culture of eating a banana?
Did you not hear the part where Sarah Jane Ho egotistically proclaims that the younger generation is more "westernized," as if co-opting western culture and assimilating into it is somewhat perceived as a superior step upwards in the established social hierarchy? How about the part about using forks and knives instead of chopsticks. The west has set the standard simply because the United States transformed into a pre-eminent power during World War II. The west has gatekeeped cultural standards, and policed non-western countries for "backwards" culture, so much so that many east Asian nations have developed pronounced inferiority complexes to the west.
As an asian person, that is simply you don't want.
@@martinikwok703 how does knowing prince Harry and pronouncing Ferragamo have to do with either one?
They look tacky and pretentious tbh
And that is okay. They will mingle with others like them. That is the whole point of the etiquette classes to be like the others you will be among.
Ok so...She charge 16k, but we just came on RUclips and learned this scammers way for free.
You're dumb if you think you learned everything in this short video. All she did was show you how to eat 1 seafood and a banana. It's a 10+ day course. I'm sure she didn't give away $16,000 of information in one short video.
Having "higher education" does not make you a smarter person. Nor does it make you kind, generous, warm and a well rounded individual. I would rather be with people who are "rough around the edges so to speak" as opposed to people who are snobbish, drab, unoriginal and egotistical people.
Also if a person is that shallow that it bothers them that someone doesn't eat a certain way according to someone's elses standards, then I can't be friends with people like that.
Professional Commenter question; would you rather that they put money in the bank and gain interest/real estate and hike up rent prices or would you rather they spend it and pay for services provided by poorer people?
I agree with your statement if it’s directed to poor people. At the same time I’m not going stop the people who owns 90% of the world’s wealth to not pay for someone’s livelihood.
Agree
Professional Commenter you’re my type of person hun because i couldn’t be posh for all the money in the world. I’m a nice person with a crude mouth yet will treat you with respect. Frankly who wants to eat a banana 🍌 with a knife & fork? Use your bloody hands & crack on.
Hannah currier, I'm sorry I wasn't classifying all rich people in that category. I did know some people that had money and they were very kind and loving.
GothicaBeauty, I eat a banana like primates do, it's faster and easier.
If they were buying an Hermes bag ten years ago, why do you have to teach them how to pronounce Ferragamo?
This is not about refinement or some kind of moral enlightenment. This is about trying to fit in with rich people without embarrassing yourself.
You've absolutely hit the nail on the head with that comment.
rich and poor there is no diffrence
True thattt
PREACH
Girl if she managed to attend all those schools, her family and herself. By Chinese standard, she would have to have set all her capital up buying all these expensive plates and stuff before people will try to come to her. Unless you are Chinese, I don’t think your western point of view will match outs
Is....Is that a fake British accent to make her sound more classy. Because she turns it on and off for certain sentences.
Erykah Faulk i know right. It was kinda annoying??
Erykah Faulk omg you noticed too! Thought I was the only one. She’s so annoying!!
Lol true
No. When the Chinese learn English, they learn British English. "Turning it on and off" might just be her own accent slipping through
Erykah Faulk - I noticed that too!! I thought I was the only one
Elegance = Fake English accent , Westernized, Ability pronounce brand names... Money well spent at Harvard~
How marvelous !
Saying in my English accent btw
which is of course fake
A Lee most chinese stuff are knock-off anyway. does not have much diff with people there
some rich chinese families prefer sending their children in boarding school
crickey
She didn't go to Harvard. She took a class there, which anyone can do.
@@jeffreyfritatas3500 not some most of them WANT their kids go abroad
Sadly she didn't learn nor does she appear to teach humility.
MidnightFlower13 I think it’s pretty funny.
Put your tampon in and stop getting so emotional
This is so sad. As if you could be “the perfect lady” by sitting a certain way, eating a certain way, etc. Focus on being a kind person that serves others. Not on something that’s only purpose is to puff you up and make yourself look better.
honestly tho
exactly. The video was suffocating omg
It is not about being the perfect lady or making yourself look better, it is about having class and being elegant. Knowing how to eat properly and having food manners reflect a lot on a person.
Alejandra Conrado but being elegant doesnt mean you have to completely use western style.. I mean, different cultures have different etiquette, right? If everyone do this their culture would die..
Thank you for saying this. And European standard isn't automatically "better"
"Just peel the banana"
"that'll be $16,000 please"
"Let me see how you peel a banana"
*Holds banana and peels it from top*
"YOU FOOL THATS NOT HOW TO PEEL A BANANA"
Rule #1: Don't Date a Girl who eats a banana with a fork
Rule #2: Run fast like Forrest Gump if you see a girl eating a banana with a fork
Rule #3: Repeat #1+#2.
overall entertaining piece
Rule #4: Don't try to be funny if you're not.

As someone with Eastern roots...this saddens me. I know everyone has their own opinion on rich lifestyle, but from a continent where humility, simplicity, and unconditional happiness laid the groundworks for Eastern philosophy systems...the descendants of my ancestors seem to have forgotten their past. We have a saying: to forget one's ancestors is to be a tree without its roots.
Just trying to fit into the fake ideals of western European society and it's truly sad. They think if they act like the best type of white people, that they will accept them. They won't. This is just a course to hopefully get Chinese girls to marry off into white families and get as much money back to their family.
I agree
It's because they followed Confucianism instead of Daoism they ended up mostly here. Status and hierarchy compared to a lack of...although, the all Asian cultures essentially suffer with 'lack of Status suffering'

Never seen a Asian girl talk like a rich white girl
At least she's trying... or do you want her to speak with the L-accent?
We can see how the concept of 'face' is missing with many in the West. A self portrayal of ignorance and intellectual deshabille is often a method of self protection for those who chose to be losers in life.
Please enlighten us, Corbin. How does one speak like a 'rich white girl'? Also, how does one talk like a poor white girl?
Talk like she’s educated?
Anyone americanized (adopted our culture) would probably sound like this. People look at me weird because I'm latina but I don't have an accent
This reminds me of the hunger games and the capital citizens
lmaoooo rich ppl make everything so complicated, just peel the banana and eat

and THIS is a perfect representation of China's superficiality. Brand names, and the desire to act/look wealthy is what Chinese people strive for. Totally corrupted mentality.
-an Asian-America who has visited and lived in China multiple times.
Nicole Wong exactly
This should be topic comment, everyone has entirely missed the actual point here
its not just China, South Korea has this same kind of mentality.
Anthonevel Lezzgetit I think most countries have that mentality. People strive to be wealthy, look wealthy, act wealthy, etc to the point they'll do anything. That's probably the reason why there's black markets and why there's so many corrupted people/businesses.
Nicole Wong I agree brother it's non sense stupid...... I prefer to learn eating with chop sticks than doing such drama!!!

this woman when to all those quality schools and this is the most worth while career she could come up with? a damn shame.
+haitianjack5 It's lucrative, though your right its kinda sad shes chosen to better the work by teaching people to eat bannanas rather than something for far reaching.
+haitianjack5 Looks like she makes crazy money working 4 hours a day. You have a very peculiar idea of "damn shame"
She's basically teaching rich people how to be a fancy white person
How is it a shame? She's teaches a person to eat banana and etc in 2 weeks and earns $16K PER PERSON for it , while you slave by a hot grill or get on your hands and knees to wash someone else's car for $6 an hour despite having finishing college.
Most sensible comment here! She could've done anything else but this.
there are asian moms... and then there is this woman. god help that child.
Louis Auto wkwkwkwkwk. This actually make me dying😂
Everything about her is snobby, her voice, her body language and just her demeanour. You can be refined and polite but not snobby.
Undeniably true.
You are just jealous with her and can't afford her. I know you would rather have a life like her, than being a hypocrite poor loser.
I suppose the finishing school taught her how to eat biscuit (cookie) with a knife and fork. I rather eat a banana with my hands and cut out the washing up afterwards.

Image peacefully eating a banana with fork is so much more better than sitting on cold floor and worry about bills, salary, renting,...
all my mom needed was a 2USD whip to teach me table manner LOL
I think etiquette is very much needed in these days and times, however…learning how to cut a banana is not elegant but psychotic. She needs to calm down. I mean, who CUTS banana?!

Agree 🙌🙌😭
I already replied this somewhere else, but I feel compelled to repeat it since I think we're missing the point here. I believe the point of the "how to eat a banana elegantly" lesson is more about teaching knife and fork handling skills, it's practice for different maneuvers to slice and lift food with a fork and knife. Chinese people mostly use chopsticks for their entire life, so they would need to learn how to properly hold a knife and fork, how to cut food with it, the amount of pressure, sliding the knife to make a good clean cut, pressing food on to the fork then lifting it to their mouth without bits of food falling off. It may seem ridiculous to westerners because you grew up with that, but haven't you ever tried learning how to use chopsticks? The banana is just a nice medium to practice all the different ways you can use the knife and fork at one go.
Kamille Mercado she specifically said: how to elegantly eat a banana with a knife. I see no room for other interpretation.
Videos like these make me nothing else but angry. especially because in china there are so many poor people
Yill Bongard this is why they're poor she took all their money
Right and thay are eating digs and cats... bastards
Dont watch
It’s absolutely disgusting
same here... half way to the video I'm like I'm done. Besides in China there other poor people in other countries as well
that eyebrow twitch was a bit... distracting. 0:53
edit: her service to the country is to reinforce western traditions and etiquette into modern-day china.
Ian-Devon Lewis Table etiquete isnt invented by white or is exclusive to Western culture. This service teaches common social manners, not pretend to be white. Why do pretentious white people make everything about themself.
I thought the banana was $16k
my face the entire time -______________-
i am chinese but i am disappointed to see this...
connie liu I agree with you so much!
Agree. Chinese should focus on chinese table manners. This only shows that the chinese think that westerners are well mannered and chinese are not. That using forks and knives is classy while eating with chopsticks is for low class peasants. Be proud of Chinese culture. You guys have a long history and rich culture. Chopsticks is your invention. One of the most genius inventions in history.
She’s a con artist. And okay that posh accent is totally fake looooool. If I’m correct she’s also got a british accent and has always studied in the US, nowhere is Britain mentioned. LOL I’m so confused.
She grew up in China before going to Exeter... people in China learn British English and have slight accents; nothing to make fun of.
@P Last Name lol ok typical american
Nope I met chinese students when I went to boarding school in the US. They had American accents. Her accent is totally fake.
@@mabelluo3780 lol when you go to school in the US, even a private one like Philips Exeter, you quickly learn to lose the faux English accent. This is clearly put on for her clientele who associate more class with a posh UK accent than an American one.
Well pay her to have a "corrected" accent then. You won't so her accent will remain standing. Have a beautiful day!
She's the type of lady to eat pizza with a fork...weirdo
Crogg88 actually in Italy we do eat naples pizza with a knife and fork ~
albania - 😄 I was about to respond to the OP that eating pizza with a fork is actually correct, then I saw your comment. Not a lot of people know that, especially outside of Italy, because they are so used to seeing Americans eat pizza with their hands.
Very ignorant comment. Most likely an American. But then again in the West they are recognized as being uncouth.
I’m Asian, and I normally eat pizza with fork and knife... Lol
maybe some people don't want to have greasy pizza smelling fingers gross...
what accent is this my brain is confused
The Chinese learn British English
Michelle M lol in Hong Kong international student learn American English
Fake Annoying British Accent
Sofia Bronco would you rather have her speak in a fake American accent 😂
a fake smug English one
Dang. If she learned how to profit $16k from teaching someone how to eat a banana with a fork we must all be doing something wrong with our lives.
Hahaha
EAT BANANA LIKE THAT IS SERIAL KILLER- Uncle Roger
Flagged the video for harmful content.....no person should ever eat a banana with a fork and knife!
The GR8 One After watching this stupidity I became so confused
I just saved $16,000 and finally learned how to eat a banana.
Lmfao true
what restaurant are you going to that serves a banana on a plate like that?
"It's one banana, Michael. What could it cost? Ten dollars?"
"It's not an insignificant amount" made me laugh haha 😂
You know the world is fucked up when people charge/pay 16k to eat a banana..
+Daniel Vaiaoga and they say it was worth every penny lol
+Darko Bratincevic well not the only sign.. just ridiculous people will pay
I actually like this idea. Not the whole $16000 thing though, but the idea of portraying yourself in a certain manner and making meals/events more than just sitting around the table scrounging your food. It seems a bit fun tbh. Being a classy broad who takes a turn about the room.
+Thadius Meyers Same especially the bring your head to the food part. It's something I do a lot but do not notice it. When I see others do it and I think to myself my god that looks really bad, it's a bad habit I guess
+thadius Meyers
balderdash.
dumbfuck
Thadius Meyers me too darling, the poor are sadly blind to high taste and refinement they're just jealous.
i can tell your white
A Banana teaching how to eat a Banana.
Humans of late stage capitalism..
In a "communist" country. Lmao. Maybe you should look at your own failed ideologies. Lol
Very interesting but I'm struggling to think of a scenario in which a person of such high status that they need etiquette classes would ever need to eat a banana with a knife and fork! Really would the top high quality chefs just chuck an unpeeled banana on a plate?!
That is the FAKEST English accent I’ve ever heard 😂😭
Anyweather Never ever Native Chinese people learn British English so of course they will have British-sounding accents. Don't criticize their dialect because that further proved their want to Westernize themselves. The idea that you need to fully learn Western etiquette in order to be respected is so sad yet true.
Michelle M good point, thanks for the reminder
Hong Kong was part of the British Empire until 1996 genius
Anyweather Never ever thank you for conceding. Still a genius though
Anyweather Never ever ikr
Eating a banana with cutlery!! 😂😆😂
I eat McDonalds. It makes me happy. I dont need no etiquette class.
You probably need Etiquette classes, Nutrition classes, perhaps Fitness Classes, and how not to be Ignorant classes.
BenGenio very true
TheCheese CakeGuy Your name, LOL! Middle class or the majority of society is not considered normal to me. Normal is not what I want, I want more.
BenGenio We all want more,mate.I am personally a higher class person but I'm not up-stuck about it...
Actually Benagenio I workout everyday and currently getting big as fuck. So please come again.
I just learned how to cut it for free
Aka pay $16k to feel superior over everyone else
GiantsRTheBest1 I've done that since birth and I didn't have to pay a single penny for it
Guy: "Mom? Dad? I'm getting married"
Dad: "To whom?"
Guy: "To a Ho"
Dad: "Oh God, NO!"
why does she sounds posh English/American?
sound
Maybe she is British and American.
noisy mimo it's the way she switches inbetween accents
She learnt it via youtube... For FREE!!
+Gabriel Akibo-Betts One of the cultural effects of colonialism is that culture and traditions of the colonists become sought after, and locals try to emulate it.
Booo, teach us how to elegantly eat a banana with chopsticks.
Ken Chen 😂😂
