"Sometimes people watching this show mistake my casual way of interacting with locals for a lack of reverence or outright disrespect. Reality, I'm never forced to put on a fake display of deference for the simple reason that I don't pity these people." Sonny perfectly put into words what I have always thought about his interaction with different people from different cultures. He clearly has no intention of degrading people or disrespecting them. If the way he goes about interacting with people upsets you, it says more about yourself than him. Keep up the good work Sonny
When you try to tell people on here that they don’t need or expect your help and don’t want to live the American life style they get upset because they think everybody wants America’s help
This is one of the best series, Sonny has ever done. His interactions with all the people he meets, makes it seem like you’re actually there with him. Great job!
💡 Was America really part of the country of India and that the Indians were not red, but the British called them the Red Indians to isolate them from India and after the British held them execution and rape parties for women?
Sonny letting us know that this tribe has laughed and smiled more than any where he has ever been; ugh i almost cried. Knowing these people live so simply and can just be so happy is amazing. How he mentioned he didn't pitty them i love it he's so great at what he does.
Living a simple life is what we all need, we don’t need to complicate life! I agree there’s no need to feel pity towards them they are happy and live life the way they used to be. I feel like they’re much happier than us, because our society complicates life for us as we live every single day.
The way you blend in with the locals is the best thing about this show. When people from such unique and distinct culture welcome you with warm smiles and open hearts, it only means that you and your team connect with them by the universal language of love and respect.
I never once thought the way you interact with these foreign cultures came off as disrespectful. The thing I like most about this show is how authentic it is and you are. I think too many people don't understand that their forced, excessive displays of respect are patronizing and alienating. You immerse yourself in a very real way, as someone fascinated and in love with foreign cultures and traditions without assuming the role of someone who believes appropriation is the only way to experience them. You don't have to pretend to enjoy drinking cow bile in order to show respect. You almost threw up, and you all laughed together and you thanked them for allowing you to experience their traditions with them and that is the most human and respectful thing you can do. That is part of what makes this channel so utterly fantastic.
The title of the video is problematic though. Imagine inviting someone over for dinner then find out they did a video with this kind of negative headline
I love the way Sonny is genuine and how he fits in any environment without even pretending. That’s the main reason I watch your programs and I’ve learn’t a lot of humility but just watching how you behave. Thanks for being you and I’m sure many of us are learning how to appreciate people who are different from our make up and backgrounds. Keep up the good work bro
98% of the travel guides you get are amazing. This guy, is no exception. It’s amazing that he left the tribe at 26 to learn English and to be the voice for his people. Bruh that so cool, not even going to lie.
I love how authentic they are and true to themselves. They’re not at all offended about you making faces at the bile or the raw liver because they know its in good fun and they are secure in who they are. Such a good energy
So much respect to you and your team Sonny. You’re able to show viewers parts of the world we would probably never get to see portrayed (at least fairly/accurately) in media. It also doesn’t hurt that your filming, editing, and hosting is always 10/10
I hereby declare Sonny and the whole Best Ever Food Review Show team as honorary anthropologists for their outstanding and inspiring work of making the world safe for human differences and teaching us what it means to be human around the world. Keep up the wonderful work!
@Luis Tejeda 💡 Was America really part of the country of India and that the Indians were not red, but the British called them the Red Indians to isolate them from India and after the British held them execution and rape parties for women?
Sonny’s wife is so lucky. He’ll eat anything she cooks for him! Jokes aside, I admire Sonny and the whole team for allowing viewers to experience such enriching moments vicariously through him. Thank you and I love your work.
this man has my utmost respect. dude is willing to eat raw liver drenched in blood and gastric juice to experience their culture. i love this show and sonny.
I am sure he took preventive medication to kill all the parasites. There is no way a Westerner can eat that and not get sick. I know some people who went to Africa and just drank water and ate cooked food from a street vendor and got so violently sick, they had to be flown out on emergency flight, they came close dying. These people are used to it but our digestive systems are not used to it.

I'd like to point out, the production quality of your show is so good now. No big tv network show is any better. Camera work, editing, sound. Your team deserves praise!
I love the guy who is showing him around and how decade he is for his tribe and how he still comes back to them even tho he is grown up and moved on!!:’))
"The intestines taste somewhat clean," as it cuts to a shot of what looks like straight up shit in the food. This guy is a trooper for diving straight into it. You can tell he wants the full experience and not to offend the people who extend their hospitality. What a guy, what a show.
This tribe is definitely different than others and that makes it even more interesting to watch. I love that you're very humble and respectful towards them but also give us your honest opinion on things that you don't like. This Africa tour episodes are probably one of the best episodes of your whole channel.
Agreed. I am actually sad that the videos (with this tribe) are done now. I like the datoga tribe! And of course agree completely with what you said about Sonny! I think that the Africa tour series is probably (one of) the best on his channel because many of the other cultures/countries, we would be able to visit these countries easier. And food wise is easier to come across their food. Except a few other places. But this Africa series wouldn’t be easy to visit ourselves (I think?). So we aren’t really exposed to it like other countries/cultures. That is what really makes it interesting for me personally. I too have really loved this series! I hate that Sonny has to say that he doesn’t do this for shock value but to live like them. For me, I wouldn’t even doubt he did this for shock value had he never said it. But RUclips and its rules still don’t like it I think. But this broadens your horizons. To see how other people live.. which is very interesting to see and learn about.
@@Melon_Cloud it’s easy to visit a lot of African countries. West and in the East. Tanzania is in east Africa. Also not all countries have these kind of tribes. So unfortunately you won’t see things as shocking as eating raw meat in most other African countries. I for one never grew up with that. Born and raised in west Africa (2 different countries) and this is equally shocking to me! But I do love this series and love to learn about our neighbors as we don’t get taught these things.
@@titikay4real Yes, I meant visiting a tribe especially. I know at least a few African countries are relatively easy to travel to. Might also depend on where you are from and of course travel experience to be safe. But the tribes is a different story. Just visiting a tribe / experience a tiny part of the nomadic lifestyle, even if just for a day.. (though you can’t experience the nomadic lifestyle in a day, I am aware). I am very interested in different cultures. And just loved this Africa series. Such a stark contrast with Europe where I am from.
@@Melon_Cloud yeah I get you. I currently live in Europe and I can tell you, life is much more stressful compared to where I’m from in west Africa (Ghana and Nigeria). And the sense of community is not as much so you can easily feel lonely, a little less happy face’s 😅. I personally don’t have the courage to do what Sonny does and I appreciate him for it!
I love how you respect every culture you encounter, you try and appreciate everything they do even if you think it’s disgusting… it’s really inspirational
As a West African, born and raised, the shock value of this video is crazy! It’s so fascinating to think and know that my next door neighbors are still very much in touch with their ancient way of life! I really appreciate Sonny for all his work and allowing us experience theses cultures through his cus honestly, I could never!
In Mali and Niger you can still find villages that practice a lot of their traditions, some are Muslims, dogon people practice their own religion, but all of them have traditions that you don't see in cities
Kudos to Sonny. Every time I see episodes like this I remember that video conversation he had with Andrew Zimmern, and how Andrew described how when he was starting his culinary adventure show he didnt have an exotic palette yet, and after the durian fruit incident he decided no matter what he would try everything as the people do, accept it, and try not to insult their culture or ways of doing things. Sonny I think had been doing this well before this conversation with Andrew, but I think he really took his story to heart and his appreciation and accepting of other peoples ways really shows.
@@curtisthomas2670 It actually doesn't taste bad, it's a new unique taste and texture which if you have never tried are not accustomed to. Still millions love it after a while, the smell is what outs people off.
The Datoba people, especially the women, seems so social and happy. They trying to communicate in any ways just because they being curious and friendly. Thanks for your journey, looking forward to your next adventure. Sonny is the man.
Pretty awesome how Sonny tries all these different cultures' foods, and he always tries to portray these cultures in the most positive way possible, even when he's about to barf up what he just ate. Kudos to Sonny for being so respectful and adventurous!
I love how Sonny does all of his homework for wherever he goes.. he embraces every culture. This is living the life. And loving the knowledge of all cultures. 🥰
Sonny is just Sonny! He's human colorblind 😁 never ever disrespectful to anyone, everything and fascinated by different cultures. He understands cultures via his table mannerisms he copies to show his hosts that he means to learn about their cultures of how they sustain themselves!
Founding this channel is one of the best thing that ever happened to me. I know there's someone else out there doing food reviews and I have lots of respect for them but this channel will forever be my favourite. Sonny and team.... you're the best.
I like how respectful he is even when he obviously does not like the food what so ever. Respecting culture and tradition and especially the food is very important to people around the world.
One of my favorite series so far, Im happy you mentioned that you do not pity them and one way isn't better, it is just different. It is the idea that one way is better that has caused a lot of turmoil throughout history and the complete eradication of unique cultures. It is so awesome to see a different picture of Africa, these people are happy and friendly. Thank you Sonny!
You are so awesome with people! No matter where you go or what the circumstances, you are open, friendly and welcoming to these experiences! Thanks for sharing these videos.
Unfortunately, the lowest tier that they offer is 5$ a month and there is no option to pledge anything lower. I believe that might hinder a lot of people from pledging a dollar or two each month.
I honestly can't believe that I'm an African yet I haven't experienced all of this...soooo interesting. THANK YOU Sonny for showcasing all these tribes through food
From living around the world for the past 15 years (also in Tanzania) thank you for showing us how the great world lives. Americans need to see more of this. I've learned in the world we may look different, dress different, speak different, but in the core we are all the same and want the same basic needs of life, health, happiness, and family.
Probably the most authentic and real food review show I've seen. And this dude has to be one of the realist people I've seen. I got alot of respect for him and his team
Dude you do not need to explain the "WHY" you interact with people in a certain way. You are a traveler like I. When in the moment and sucked up in it, these people can feel it to and its amazing to watch. The energy you give off is calming. People understand fun and it brings the best out in them also. You are not judgmental in any way and totally you are open minded i love it
I could never bring myself to eat something like (raw) but I respect and understand that’s their culture. It’s crazy how we are all the same but we are different in our own ways. Proud of you Sonny 😅
You don't even have the same microbiome as they do. Could be that you'd get sick if you'd eat that - could be that they would get sick if they do not eat it...as cases of Indian students in the USA have shown - they got sick because of the lack of certain bacteria in the food they have in India but not in the USA (yeah...despite the "Indian" cuisine in the US ... which is a westernized version...and Indians who live long un the US adapted...thus they don't have the same microbiome as Indians from India.
And then theres people like me that was offered 20 bucks to eat 8 day old pig liver in bio class and did it without hesitation. Thank god I didn't get sick.
I am fascinated at all the interesting things I am witnessing on this site/channel! There is nothing boring about living on this planet!! People learn to eat according to what is available. My gag reflex would definitely kick in with all that raw blood! Truth be known, we Americans lead such an abundant life!! We have lost appreciation for the challenging lives of peoples in less abundant countries.
“So there’s nothing missing?” “No.” In a place where we are always tempted to reach for “more” and challenged by the idea that what we have is not enough, it is really refreshing AND sobering to hear a people say “Nothing is missing.”
More people should be like Sonny... Open, fun, honest, and curious to learn from others! You're a fucking legend bro! Been watching you for years now and every video I learn something new about somewhere I've never been! Keep on keeping on!!!!
Can we talk about how gorgeous their skin is? It’s absolutely glowing. In more developed countries, we slather on all sorts of creams and makeup to make our skin look that smooth and shiny, but these people just have this natural beauty about them that would make anyone jealous.
I have absolutely LOVED this series. At times hard to watch the blood and intestine parts but so eye opening and such an experience brought through to the people watching. Thank you and thank you for your bravery, having stepped out of every comfort zone to bring us such an in depth look into these beautiful peoples lives.
You’re a legend Sonny! You ate the raw blood like a champ once again proving you have nothing but respect for culture and traditions that differ from your own. Thank you for spreading culture awareness and being a champion for diversity all across the world. I love the fact that not only are you reviewing the different cuisines but a lot of times you talk about specific traits that differentiate one ethnic group from another.
Sonny, you and your team are the most wholesome. You're the only food reviewer that I keep watching and supporting because of how much respect and openness and kindness you have for everyone and group you share with us. Even when you don't like something, the way you relay it doesn't come off arrogant or with disdain. You're so good at what you do and how you share the unseen world with the rest of us in their authenticity.
These episodes are pure gold! I especially love your humour and the way you gel with the people. It is a pleasure to learn about other cultures through your channel. Africans are generally happy and friendly people. Looking forward to watching many more shows. Keep enlightening us. Much love from Kenya.
Sonny those bowls are calabashes! They were a must have in our kitchens in the villages. We used them mostly for porridge, milk and vegetables. Thanks for entertaining us and teaching us different world cultures.
I would personally like to thank you and your crew for taking me to a place I could never understand living the life I live today. You said during the show that life is what you are introduced to and surrounded by. Nothing is ever made more sense to me in my life than this statement you made. Different cultures different parts of the world and different surroundings and introductions to life is something we are all susceptible to at birth. I have never traveled out of the United States and I have visited a small portion of the US for limited times. I've lived most of my life on the East Coast from New Jersey to Florida Keys. I met different people from different cultures from living in international cities. Your show is taking me around the world and introduced to my eyes and ears things I could never see or understand. I've held many jobs in my life and food is one of them from being a dishwasher to a restaurant manager and a span of 30 years. The way that you show people raising their own food and literally depending on it for their lifestyle is something that is totally awesome to me. I greatly appreciate your content and your videos because it is the greatest learning experience I believe one can actually see and hear thank you again
it's my first time to see him feel grossed of food , but I understand it's too much for him and he showed a lot of respect to them and tried everything, the best show ever ❤️
@@benzielist4017Uncooked meat isn’t the problem, it’s the disgusting hygiene standards when dealing with meat that’s eaten raw. Uncooked meat is eaten in developed countries too.
Thanks for ALWAYS keeping it 100% Sonny!!! It’s OK to not like all foods, while still remaining respectful. You’re an excellent host and we are all cringing on our screens right with you! 😂.It’s beautiful to see other peoples cultures and feel like we’re experiencing it through your content.
When Sonny gagged, I gagged as well and almost threw up! He's a brave soul for trying that out. No way in the world that I would be able to do what he did. 🤢
Your always welcome to Tanzania, The peacefully country in the world. You will see that smile all over across the country because that is who we are, we love you men.✌
Thank you again Sonny and team, my eldest granddaughter has learnt more about different cultures from your videos than she has in over a year at school. They should make these videos compulsory viewing.
It's OFFICIAL TBFRS/Sonny is the Best and Top Food Review Show on YT. The Content, the quality, the cultural experience, and mostly the knowledge Sonny is sharing to the world is TOP NOTCH! Thank you to the TBFRS Team and Sonny!!!
11:16 omg! When I rewatched this part, I was cried because I saw that you had tried to eat their food for us, and you have tried to be respected, polite to their cultures. Thank you for doing these food shows. ❤️
This man is like a mild Bear Grylls almost. Eating raw blood and all the other things he has eaten throughout his tours, is unbelievable. It's beyond anyone I have ever seen, other than survival specialists
Wow...this is so impressive on so many levels! The video content is interesting and the fact that you immersed yourself right into the food culture is amazing. One question for you, Sonny...how did your stomach and digestive system deal with different foods? Thanks for teaching us about all kinds of new and wonderful cultures!!!!
So far one of the best quotes I've heard; ''Life... is what you're exposed to.'' It just shows you how big and unique this world is, anyways much love from Namibia, Africa🌍.
I have a lot of respect for this guys stomach. I went back home after 9 years in the USA and I got sick the first 3 days for eat the food bc I have a terrible week stomach. RESPECT !!
@@realcomm192 bye- the ladies did not seem offended, so you seem to be the only one who has a problem with him disliking food. Is he supposed to find every single meal delicious???
@@realcomm192 he took a bite of everything that had to offer, knowing that it will not be good. He did not like it but, at least he tried. If I was offered any of these, I would not have accepted considering I have a terrible gag reflex and would be far more traumatized. The tribe clearly understand and don’t expect him to live it, it seems.
what beautiful and fun people!! their smiles could light up a room! sonny, you are always so incredibly respectful and kind to people. this is my favorite food show ever. sonny and team, you guys are amazing for always bringing us such amazing cultures and people from all around and showing us their wonderful traditions and being so kind to them!
He has a very strong stomach. I’m scared of insects moreover to eat them , and it’s not everything is good to eat . You shouldn’t put any and any thing in your stomach for health reasons because the bible says we shouldn’t eat anything with the blood. Blood is where all disease comes from also certain insects and though it’s their culture I wouldn’t ruin my health in trying things that would make me sick .
21:16 Little quick nuanced scenes like this that is an afterthought, often can show a lot. The way she is chilling, all comfy, leaning into Sonny, with her elbow just resting on his thigh, just eating, relaxing and perfectly at ease, shows not how loving these people are, but how Sonny conveys himself to be, earning a level of trust and comfort that can only be received when you are genuinely a person that cares, doesn't judge, and openly accepting. I thought 8M Subs is crazy high, but this Channel deserves 3Xs that many Subs.
10:08 bile juice and intestine juice are one of the traditional sauces and ingredients of the Laos and Essan people. They use in Larb, sauce, etc. PLEASE LOVE ONE ANOTHER BECAUSE WE ARE ALIKE NO MATTER IF YOUR ASIAN, WHITE, LATIN, MID EASTERN, AFRICAN and ALL!!! 💕
True and real Latins are people of prominent Southern European Latin Mediterranean diaspora whos origins come from Italy and Roman derived Latin Europe. And Hispanic is literally the Latin language for Spain not the native Americans they colonized such as those like you an indigenous Americans weather you or others like you acknowledged it or not. Both Hispanic & Latin/Latino culture come from Europe that is Latin Europe. & Latin Europe was Latinized by Italy hence how Latina Italy got the historical Latin name LATINA! LATINO= SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN ORIGIN. Hispanic is the name the TRUE Latino people of Rome/Italy gave the Spaniards. People from south central America and Mexico are historically native Americans & now some Mestizos whom where just forced to learn Hispanic ways just like people in North America who where forced to learn English ways and it ends there. Being culturally UNROOTED due to brainwashed acculturation is why so many North Americans don’t know their own identity Nor even care.TRUE Latin people need representation in North America as we are misrepresented all day long in this country and it’s not ok. Culturally rooted proud People native to south Central America and Mexico who embrace their true identity feel the same way with FALSE brands like Hispanic and Latino as that is Not their origin it is the origin of their colonizers. LATINOS are SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATINS born anywhere in the world who’s roots come from the LATIN Roman Empire of the Mediterranean Race. HENCE HOW LATINA ITALY GOT THE HISTORICAL LATIN NAME LATINA! Supporting North American Brainwashed cultural theft for “gain” and “benefit” does Not magically change this. CULTURALLY REMOVED North Americans need to learn and respect their true culture that way they can stop stealing from mine. & TRUE LATINO MEN AND WOMEN AKA SOUTHERN EUROPEANS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTI RACIAL ETHNIC PEOPLE DUE TO OUR MIDDLE EASTERN, NORTH AFRICAN& BALKAN GYPSIE DNA. THIS CULTURAL RAPE EXIST BECAUSE THOSE LIKE YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE& WILL CONTINUE TO “BENEFIT” FROM THE CULTURAL THEFT TOWARDS US TRUE LATINO MEDITERRANEANS! THIS BRAINWASHED OBSESSION WITH PUSHING AMERICAN MOSTLY NORTH AMERICAN CULTURAL THEFT TOWARDS US TRUE LATIN PEOPLE AS A FASHION TREND NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED. ITS EXHAUSTING AND DISGUSTING
I’m from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and when I saw him dipping raw meat in the bile, I knew he wasn’t messing around. I lived in the city so we didn’t have to kill the animals ourselves but whenever there is a holiday The whole neighborhood gets like five cows and do the killing and butchering themselves. There is a sauce that is made from the bile and they put some other stuff in it but I was just a kid so I don’t know what other stuff they put in it, but I do remember the bile being The most disgusting thing that I have ever tried so far. It was nasty, disgusting and the smell was horrible. I hated it so much. I remembered how one of my friend tried The bile alone n throw up right away. I never tried it did because of the way it smelled. Couldn’t even get it close to my mouth lol. All in all, it was a great video.
In the west we never use bile in cooking..in fact if the gall bladder ruptures and contaminates the meat is is considered ruined. Animal waste products are not meant to be eaten
I m from Ethiopia, born & raised in Addis Ababa. I never seen bile used as a sauce.. we eat raw meat with chili powder,butter and other spices. In my area I’ve never seen anybody drinking blood. OMG I am shocked!I noticed a lot similarities between these people & us, Ethiopian. The skin, the features…. & Ethiopian country side living style. Wow! I bet these tribe originated from Ethiopia. Thank you Sonny, I m learning a lot
I can’t believe some of your viewers think you’re disrespectful to the people you meet. I’ve seen so many of your videos and when it comes to your interactions with the locals I’ve only ever found you to be warm, inquisitive, genuinely interested eager to learn and incredibly friendly. All the people who say otherwise are idiots.
I agree, they're very understanding that it's all new to him and he may not like everything he tries. They're all laughing along with him and enjoying his company so I feel like if he really was being disrespectful they'd let him know one way or another.
I have had 10 exchange students from many different locations. When asked about the culture, I reply in the same way as you. The cultures are not good or bad, just different. The manner I treated these kids (as family - exchange sons) and as a result I now have many exchange families in many different lands and I love it. They are part of my family and I am part of theirs.
The moment it registered in his mind that he broke the only thing keeping the cow with him🤣 I love your videos and your humor! They know that your intentions were never to disrespect them, your reaction is honest and truthful considering their customs are new! I probably would have thrown up so 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 for you 😂 I’ve watched that scene with the cow so many times and have laughed just as hard😂 (it doesn’t take much to entertain me😅 and that’s something that would happen to me)
3:11 the subtle edit with the audible whip crack as one cow's tail flicks another cow's face--the editing team behind BEFRS remains on its game. So much subtle humor embedded in the creativity.
Thank you Sonny and the Best Ever Food Review Show staff for giving us quality content. This YT channel is definitely underrated. I also love how the women in this tribe are comfortable with you. Thank you for sharing their culture with us!
I love the fact that Sonny is not afraid to experience different cultures and try different foods. So in love with his contents over the years. Nuff love Sonny 🇯🇲♥️♥️
A fellow Jamaican here and I am exposed to son much cultures as I reside in Europe and visit many Asian countries. Raw fish no problem but raw meat and bile no thanks. This man has done a good job showing a bit of Jamaican dishes and is great at getting down with the people in their environment.
@@celianeher7637 i wonder, is there any risk eating raw beef like this? parasites etc. cuz these tribes didn't look unhealthy or as if they had parasites
I am an African, born, raised and living in a Kenyan village 340 km from Nairobi, but there's no way I'm eating something like this. I think this job is just an extreme talent that you have.
My God Sonny I've watched so many episodes and this is the first one where there is no way I could eat that, up until this moment it just looked like a dream trying all that crazy food. Bile, yup that is truly a step beyond what I am capable of. You truly are the best ever food review show.
Don't tell me sonny is a full American, no American on planet earth can be so humble and loving to this extent. Let alone that we even lost our immigrants through their stereotyping nature. Keep up the good work sonny. Atleast it makes me happy that you enjoyed every part of my continent, AFRICA our beautiful mother!!! Its our nature to welcome and love everybody. Am not apologetic to anyone for being an African. One love!!

"Sometimes people watching this show mistake my casual way of interacting with locals for a lack of reverence or outright disrespect. Reality, I'm never forced to put on a fake display of deference for the simple reason that I don't pity these people."
Sonny perfectly put into words what I have always thought about his interaction with different people from different cultures. He clearly has no intention of degrading people or disrespecting them. If the way he goes about interacting with people upsets you, it says more about yourself than him. Keep up the good work Sonny
I approve this message.
Well said!!
This is a level of introspection most aren't willing to reach.
When you try to tell people on here that they don’t need or expect your help and don’t want to live the American life style they get upset because they think everybody wants America’s help
@@chad8251 So true
This is one of the best series, Sonny has ever done. His interactions with all the people he meets, makes it seem like you’re actually there with him. Great job!
Best episode you mean?
He's is there with them in person!
What do you mean by it seems like .... He is there with them?
@@Priyanka-ln7ni the you in that sentence meant we, i think, making us feel like we're here with them
Watch his older stuff he’s done a lot of great videos
💡 Was America really part of the country of India and that the Indians were not red, but the British called them the Red Indians to isolate them from India and after the British held them execution and rape parties for women?
Sonny letting us know that this tribe has laughed and smiled more than any where he has ever been; ugh i almost cried. Knowing these people live so simply and can just be so happy is amazing. How he mentioned he didn't pitty them i love it he's so great at what he does.
Living a simple life is what we all need, we don’t need to complicate life! I agree there’s no need to feel pity towards them they are happy and live life the way they used to be. I feel like they’re much happier than us, because our society complicates life for us as we live every single day.
Pretty awesome to see what the people eat that built the pyramids!
The way you blend in with the locals is the best thing about this show. When people from such unique and distinct culture welcome you with warm smiles and open hearts, it only means that you and your team connect with them by the universal language of love and respect.
Underrated, how is there only 73 likes?
"The worst food he's ever tried" is the title of his video. Say less my friend
Show me da way
@@josephpaul7367 well he isn't try to sugarcoat anything. He just being honest.
@@josephpaul7367 well, his honesty in expressing opinion is what makes this channel BEST.
I never once thought the way you interact with these foreign cultures came off as disrespectful. The thing I like most about this show is how authentic it is and you are. I think too many people don't understand that their forced, excessive displays of respect are patronizing and alienating. You immerse yourself in a very real way, as someone fascinated and in love with foreign cultures and traditions without assuming the role of someone who believes appropriation is the only way to experience them. You don't have to pretend to enjoy drinking cow bile in order to show respect. You almost threw up, and you all laughed together and you thanked them for allowing you to experience their traditions with them and that is the most human and respectful thing you can do. That is part of what makes this channel so utterly fantastic.
Compelling agree !!💯💯💯💯💯
The title of the video is problematic though. Imagine inviting someone over for dinner then find out they did a video with this kind of negative headline

AMEN Moses, no other presenter shows as much respect and genuine liking for other cultures as Sonny!😊
Yeah he had the balls to try. Toughest eater ever!
98% of the travel guides you get are amazing. This guy, is no exception. It’s amazing that he left the tribe at 26 to learn English and to be the voice for his people. Bruh that so cool, not even going to lie.
I love how authentic they are and true to themselves. They’re not at all offended about you making faces at the bile or the raw liver because they know its in good fun and they are secure in who they are. Such a good energy
And it was his own cow so he has the right to 😆
So much respect to you and your team Sonny. You’re able to show viewers parts of the world we would probably never get to see portrayed (at least fairly/accurately) in media. It also doesn’t hurt that your filming, editing, and hosting is always 10/10

I hereby declare Sonny and the whole Best Ever Food Review Show team as honorary anthropologists for their outstanding and inspiring work of making the world safe for human differences and teaching us what it means to be human around the world. Keep up the wonderful work!

Agreed, not that crap they peddled during colonialism
Very well said
Sonny’s wife is so lucky. He’ll eat anything she cooks for him!
Jokes aside, I admire Sonny and the whole team for allowing viewers to experience such enriching moments vicariously through him. Thank you and I love your work.

this man has my utmost respect. dude is willing to eat raw liver drenched in blood and gastric juice to experience their culture. i love this show and sonny.
I am sure he took preventive medication to kill all the parasites. There is no way a Westerner can eat that and not get sick. I know some people who went to Africa and just drank water and ate cooked food from a street vendor and got so violently sick, they had to be flown out on emergency flight, they came close dying. These people are used to it but our digestive systems are not used to it.

Yeah I would never
The smile and laughter of women are genuine and beautiful! Thanks for this series sonny and the best ever food review team!
I'd like to point out, the production quality of your show is so good now. No big tv network show is any better. Camera work, editing, sound. Your team deserves praise!
I second this. Absolutely fantastic team, story telling, production value - everything. And just so dang interesting and wonderful, too.
I love the guy who is showing him around and how decade he is for his tribe and how he still comes back to them even tho he is grown up and moved on!!:’))
This community seemed super friendly, always smiling and happy to share their ways. Amazing video and people.
"The intestines taste somewhat clean," as it cuts to a shot of what looks like straight up shit in the food. This guy is a trooper for diving straight into it. You can tell he wants the full experience and not to offend the people who extend their hospitality. What a guy, what a show.
I mean if it's any better it hasn't fully been processed into shit yet, it's halfway there. Not that it would make a big difference 😂
Cow shit is a very popular food in endia
@@juchou2983 oh endia is England India it’s like fish and chips curry with banger tikka masala
@@juchou2983 yeah but not for eating lol, it's used as substitute for wood or coal in cooking
@@alokkumar5123 I think he's referring to the cow dung festival in some village that cover themselves in cow shit and eat it.
This tribe is definitely different than others and that makes it even more interesting to watch. I love that you're very humble and respectful towards them but also give us your honest opinion on things that you don't like. This Africa tour episodes are probably one of the best episodes of your whole channel.
Agreed. I am actually sad that the videos (with this tribe) are done now. I like the datoga tribe! And of course agree completely with what you said about Sonny! I think that the Africa tour series is probably (one of) the best on his channel because many of the other cultures/countries, we would be able to visit these countries easier. And food wise is easier to come across their food. Except a few other places. But this Africa series wouldn’t be easy to visit ourselves (I think?). So we aren’t really exposed to it like other countries/cultures. That is what really makes it interesting for me personally. I too have really loved this series! I hate that Sonny has to say that he doesn’t do this for shock value but to live like them. For me, I wouldn’t even doubt he did this for shock value had he never said it. But RUclips and its rules still don’t like it I think. But this broadens your horizons. To see how other people live.. which is very interesting to see and learn about.
true
@@Melon_Cloud it’s easy to visit a lot of African countries. West and in the East. Tanzania is in east Africa. Also not all countries have these kind of tribes. So unfortunately you won’t see things as shocking as eating raw meat in most other African countries. I for one never grew up with that. Born and raised in west Africa (2 different countries) and this is equally shocking to me! But I do love this series and love to learn about our neighbors as we don’t get taught these things.
@@titikay4real Yes, I meant visiting a tribe especially. I know at least a few African countries are relatively easy to travel to. Might also depend on where you are from and of course travel experience to be safe. But the tribes is a different story. Just visiting a tribe / experience a tiny part of the nomadic lifestyle, even if just for a day.. (though you can’t experience the nomadic lifestyle in a day, I am aware). I am very interested in different cultures. And just loved this Africa series. Such a stark contrast with Europe where I am from.
@@Melon_Cloud yeah I get you. I currently live in Europe and I can tell you, life is much more stressful compared to where I’m from in west Africa (Ghana and Nigeria). And the sense of community is not as much so you can easily feel lonely, a little less happy face’s 😅. I personally don’t have the courage to do what Sonny does and I appreciate him for it!
Bro i never got fake or disrespectful vibes from you EVER keep doing what you are doing!
I love how you respect every culture you encounter, you try and appreciate everything they do even if you think it’s disgusting… it’s really inspirational
It inspired me to get a flamethrower

It’s so fascinating to think and know that my next door neighbors are still very much in touch with their ancient way of life! I really appreciate Sonny for all his work and allowing us experience theses cultures through his cus honestly, I could never!
I don’t know even know of acient tribes in west Africa…I wish we had some.
In Mali and Niger you can still find villages that practice a lot of their traditions, some are Muslims, dogon people practice their own religion, but all of them have traditions that you don't see in cities
Oh there are no tribes in west Africa hmm interesting

The pride for his people and drive he had to learn English and become a guide is amazing
Kudos to Sonny. Every time I see episodes like this I remember that video conversation he had with Andrew Zimmern, and how Andrew described how when he was starting his culinary adventure show he didnt have an exotic palette yet, and after the durian fruit incident he decided no matter what he would try everything as the people do, accept it, and try not to insult their culture or ways of doing things. Sonny I think had been doing this well before this conversation with Andrew, but I think he really took his story to heart and his appreciation and accepting of other peoples ways really shows.
What do you mean by the Durian fruit incident? I'm curious
He was offered durian fruit but it tasted so bad he spat it out, and the person who offered it felt offended - something like that if l recall
@@curtisthomas2670 ah thank you bro 👌
True
@@curtisthomas2670 It actually doesn't taste bad, it's a new unique taste and texture which if you have never tried are not accustomed to. Still millions love it after a while, the smell is what outs people off.
The Datoba people, especially the women, seems so social and happy. They trying to communicate in any ways just because they being curious and friendly. Thanks for your journey, looking forward to your next adventure. Sonny is the man.
Lol I loved how hyped they were for Sonny to try everything.
Imagine their immune system, eating crap and raw food will basically kill a normal person in higher quantites🤢
idk how some people can lecture you about culture when you’re probably one of the most cultured people alive today. keep up the great work man
Pretty awesome how Sonny tries all these different cultures' foods, and he always tries to portray these cultures in the most positive way possible, even when he's about to barf up what he just ate. Kudos to Sonny for being so respectful and adventurous!
What an eye opening episode. I love how encouraging, welcoming and nice this tribe was. What a beautiful community with great intestines.
Omg that older lady loves you!!! She’s all over you, Sonny. 😂 That’s so adorable. I love how happy they all are. I enjoy these videos so much.
She was touching him every scene. It was sweet
Lol she loooooves him🤣❤️
Super cute!
I was looking for this comment 😂😂🙈
i'm sure that it's motherly love and Admiring cuz the dude he's just wonderful.
I love how Sonny does all of his homework for wherever he goes.. he embraces every culture. This is living the life. And loving the knowledge of all cultures. 🥰
Sonny is just Sonny! He's human colorblind 😁 never ever disrespectful to anyone, everything and fascinated by different cultures. He understands cultures via his table mannerisms he copies to show his hosts that he means to learn about their cultures of how they sustain themselves!
Founding this channel is one of the best thing that ever happened to me. I know there's someone else out there doing food reviews and I have lots of respect for them but this channel will forever be my favourite.
Sonny and team.... you're the best.
Same, this got me through pandemic
I like how respectful he is even when he obviously does not like the food what so ever. Respecting culture and tradition and especially the food is very important to people around the world.
One of my favorite series so far, Im happy you mentioned that you do not pity them and one way isn't better, it is just different. It is the idea that one way is better that has caused a lot of turmoil throughout history and the complete eradication of unique cultures. It is so awesome to see a different picture of Africa, these people are happy and friendly. Thank you Sonny!
You are so awesome with people! No matter where you go or what the circumstances, you are open, friendly and welcoming to these experiences! Thanks for sharing these videos.
As an African, I still experience culture shock when I see these videos!! The world is a beautiful place!! ❤️❤️❤️

From living around the world for the past 15 years (also in Tanzania) thank you for showing us how the great world lives. Americans need to see more of this. I've learned in the world we may look different, dress different, speak different, but in the core we are all the same and want the same basic needs of life, health, happiness, and family.
Probably the most authentic and real food review show I've seen. And this dude has to be one of the realist people I've seen. I got alot of respect for him and his team
Dude you do not need to explain the "WHY" you interact with people in a certain way.
You are a traveler like I.
When in the moment and sucked up in it, these people can feel it to and its amazing to watch. The energy you give off is calming. People understand fun and it brings the best out in them also. You are not judgmental in any way and totally you are open minded i love it
I could never bring myself to eat something like (raw) but I respect and understand that’s their culture. It’s crazy how we are all the same but we are different in our own ways. Proud of you Sonny 😅
I mean it's like beef tar tar and sushi except with blood and fresh off the bone
You don't even have the same microbiome as they do. Could be that you'd get sick if you'd eat that - could be that they would get sick if they do not eat it...as cases of Indian students in the USA have shown - they got sick because of the lack of certain bacteria in the food they have in India but not in the USA (yeah...despite the "Indian" cuisine in the US ... which is a westernized version...and Indians who live long un the US adapted...thus they don't have the same microbiome as Indians from India.

I am fascinated at all the interesting things I am witnessing on this site/channel! There is nothing boring about living on this planet!! People learn to eat according to what is available. My gag reflex would definitely kick in with all that raw blood! Truth be known, we Americans lead such an abundant life!! We have lost appreciation for the challenging lives of peoples in less abundant countries.
I am loving this Africa series so much. Seeing how all these people live and eat is rich and good. Thank you for a great series.
Egypt was a mess
“So there’s nothing missing?” “No.” In a place where we are always tempted to reach for “more” and challenged by the idea that what we have is not enough, it is really refreshing AND sobering to hear a people say “Nothing is missing.”

Oye no cussin 😂😂

Can we talk about how gorgeous their skin is? It’s absolutely glowing. In more developed countries, we slather on all sorts of creams and makeup to make our skin look that smooth and shiny, but these people just have this natural beauty about them that would make anyone jealous.
I come from Tanzania and my skin is something I have been commented on. Same as my mother's too!!

Diet

Thank you and thank you for your bravery, having stepped out of every comfort zone to bring us such an in depth look into these beautiful peoples lives.
You’re a legend Sonny! You ate the raw blood like a champ once again proving you have nothing but respect for culture and traditions that differ from your own. Thank you for spreading culture awareness and being a champion for diversity all across the world. I love the fact that not only are you reviewing the different cuisines but a lot of times you talk about specific traits that differentiate one ethnic group from another.
Proud of my country and its traditional lifestyle...love you Tanzania
I thought eating raw meat is dangerous
He doesn’t like it💀
Sonny, you and your team are the most wholesome. You're the only food reviewer that I keep watching and supporting because of how much respect and openness and kindness you have for everyone and group you share with us. Even when you don't like something, the way you relay it doesn't come off arrogant or with disdain. You're so good at what you do and how you share the unseen world with the rest of us in their authenticity.
Their smiles were so genuine and they were truly happy with their life. That was just pure bliss.
These episodes are pure gold! I especially love your humour and the way you gel with the people. It is a pleasure to learn about other cultures through your channel. Africans are generally happy and friendly people. Looking forward to watching many more shows. Keep enlightening us. Much love from Kenya.
I love the way you interact with people. Its so genuine. I wish people in the States took time to understand us (Black folks) like this.
Sonny those bowls are calabashes! They were a must have in our kitchens in the villages. We used them mostly for porridge, milk and vegetables. Thanks for entertaining us and teaching us different world cultures.
My friend used to have a restaurant called ital calabash
Nice to hear from someone who grew up in the deepest rural Africa
We call it the same here in the Caribbean
In luganda we call it endeku

Yesss thats so true...
Why does he put the title of worst food I've tried then?
I love that you're honest about how you feel about the food you try without insulting the people who eat it. Keep up the good work!
Such a beautiful culture and people, I love how they take care of eachother! Thank you for sharing your experience with us ❤
I would personally like to thank you and your crew for taking me to a place I could never understand living the life I live today. You said during the show that life is what you are introduced to and surrounded by. Nothing is ever made more sense to me in my life than this statement you made. Different cultures different parts of the world and different surroundings and introductions to life is something we are all susceptible to at birth. I have never traveled out of the United States and I have visited a small portion of the US for limited times. I've lived most of my life on the East Coast from New Jersey to Florida Keys. I met different people from different cultures from living in international cities. Your show is taking me around the world and introduced to my eyes and ears things I could never see or understand. I've held many jobs in my life and food is one of them from being a dishwasher to a restaurant manager and a span of 30 years. The way that you show people raising their own food and literally depending on it for their lifestyle is something that is totally awesome to me. I greatly appreciate your content and your videos because it is the greatest learning experience I believe one can actually see and hear thank you again
this is beautiful
it's my first time to see him feel grossed of food , but I understand it's too much for him and he showed a lot of respect to them and tried everything, the best show ever ❤️

@James Thompson lool
He has a very strong stomach. I’m scared of insects moreover to eat them , and it’s not everything is good to eat . You shouldn’t put any and any thing in your stomach for health reasons because the bible says we shouldn’t eat anything with the blood. Blood is where all disease comes from also certain insects and though it’s their culture I wouldn’t ruin my health in trying things that would make me sick .
I’d honestly try anything besides stomach bile mixed foods, straight blood, and larvae.
If it’s FRIED, or cooked to tender I’ll eat anything new… we’ll except rat🤢
21:16 Little quick nuanced scenes like this that is an afterthought, often can show a lot. The way she is chilling, all comfy, leaning into Sonny, with her elbow just resting on his thigh, just eating, relaxing and perfectly at ease, shows not how loving these people are, but how Sonny conveys himself to be, earning a level of trust and comfort that can only be received when you are genuinely a person that cares, doesn't judge, and openly accepting.

True and real Latins are people of prominent Southern European Latin Mediterranean diaspora whos origins come from Italy and Roman derived Latin Europe. And Hispanic is literally the Latin language for Spain not the native Americans they colonized such as those like you an indigenous Americans weather you or others like you acknowledged it or not. Both Hispanic & Latin/Latino culture come from Europe that is Latin Europe. & Latin Europe was Latinized by Italy hence how Latina Italy got the historical Latin name LATINA! LATINO= SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATIN MEDITERRANEAN ORIGIN. Hispanic is the name the TRUE Latino people of Rome/Italy gave the Spaniards. People from south central America and Mexico are historically native Americans & now some Mestizos whom where just forced to learn Hispanic ways just like people in North America who where forced to learn English ways and it ends there. Being culturally UNROOTED due to brainwashed acculturation is why so many North Americans don’t know their own identity Nor even care.TRUE Latin people need representation in North America as we are misrepresented all day long in this country and it’s not ok. Culturally rooted proud People native to south Central America and Mexico who embrace their true identity feel the same way with FALSE brands like Hispanic and Latino as that is Not their origin it is the origin of their colonizers. LATINOS are SOUTHERN EUROPEAN LATINS born anywhere in the world who’s roots come from the LATIN Roman Empire of the Mediterranean Race. HENCE HOW LATINA ITALY GOT THE HISTORICAL LATIN NAME LATINA! Supporting North American Brainwashed cultural theft for “gain” and “benefit” does Not magically change this. CULTURALLY REMOVED North Americans need to learn and respect their true culture that way they can stop stealing from mine. & TRUE LATINO MEN AND WOMEN AKA SOUTHERN EUROPEANS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTI RACIAL ETHNIC PEOPLE DUE TO OUR MIDDLE EASTERN, NORTH AFRICAN& BALKAN GYPSIE DNA.

The drink, bile, heart, blood, liver…as a nurse you're a savage and I love it😭🙌🏽❤️🔥…looks fun😍
I’m from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and when I saw him dipping raw meat in the bile, I knew he wasn’t messing around. I lived in the city so we didn’t have to kill the animals ourselves but whenever there is a holiday The whole neighborhood gets like five cows and do the killing and butchering themselves. There is a sauce that is made from the bile and they put some other stuff in it but I was just a kid so I don’t know what other stuff they put in it, but I do remember the bile being The most disgusting thing that I have ever tried so far. It was nasty, disgusting and the smell was horrible. I hated it so much.
I remembered how one of my friend tried The bile alone n throw up right away. I never tried it did because of the way it smelled. Couldn’t even get it close to my mouth lol.
All in all, it was a great video.
Same here in Sudan we also have that sauce.
In the west we never use bile in cooking..in fact if the gall bladder ruptures and contaminates the meat is is considered ruined. Animal waste products are not meant to be eaten
I m from Ethiopia, born & raised in Addis Ababa. I never seen bile used as a sauce.. we eat raw meat with chili powder,butter and other spices. In my area I’ve never seen anybody drinking blood. OMG I am shocked!I noticed a lot similarities between these people & us, Ethiopian. The skin, the features…. & Ethiopian country side living style. Wow! I bet these tribe originated from Ethiopia.
Thank you Sonny, I m learning a lot

I’ve seen so many of your videos and when it comes to your interactions with the locals I’ve only ever found you to be warm, inquisitive, genuinely interested eager to learn and incredibly friendly. All the people who say otherwise are idiots.
I agree, they're very understanding that it's all new to him and he may not like everything he tries. They're all laughing along with him and enjoying his company so I feel like if he really was being disrespectful they'd let him know one way or another.
I have had 10 exchange students from many different locations. When asked about the culture, I reply in the same way as you. The cultures are not good or bad, just different. The manner I treated these kids (as family - exchange sons) and as a result I now have many exchange families in many different lands and I love it. They are part of my family and I am part of theirs.
The moment it registered in his mind that he broke the only thing keeping the cow with him🤣 I love your videos and your humor!
They know that your intentions were never to disrespect them, your reaction is honest and truthful considering their customs are new! I probably would have thrown up so 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 for you 😂
I’ve watched that scene with the cow so many times and have laughed just as hard😂 (it doesn’t take much to entertain me😅 and that’s something that would happen to me)
Love that scene. Tickles me.
3:11 the subtle edit with the audible whip crack as one cow's tail flicks another cow's face--the editing team behind BEFRS remains on its game. So much subtle humor embedded in the creativity.
God bless Africa and her people. Very diverse in many ways.
Very diverse indeed, its like you can literally get different cultures across the continent, its just awesome.
cant agree more
gross
For real I love it
@@regimanuel5301 it has disadvantages.. many!
Thank you Sonny and the Best Ever Food Review Show staff for giving us quality content. This YT channel is definitely underrated. I also love how the women in this tribe are comfortable with you. Thank you for sharing their culture with us!
I am in awe of how strong this man's stomach is. God bless you and your gag reflex, Sonny.
I love the fact that Sonny is not afraid to experience different cultures and try different foods. So in love with his contents over the years. Nuff love Sonny 🇯🇲♥️♥️
A fellow Jamaican here and I am exposed to son much cultures as I reside in Europe and visit many Asian countries. Raw fish no problem but raw meat and bile no thanks. This man has done a good job showing a bit of Jamaican dishes and is great at getting down with the people in their environment.
@@celianeher7637 i wonder, is there any risk eating raw beef like this? parasites etc. cuz these tribes didn't look unhealthy or as if they had parasites

@@slXD100 I'd guess it all depends with the environment that the animal was raised in.. natural or artificial...
I am an African, born, raised and living in a Kenyan village 340 km from Nairobi, but there's no way I'm eating something like this. I think this job is just an extreme talent that you have.
White people will eat anything, especially to impress black people and hope nobody thinks they're racists
My God Sonny I've watched so many episodes and this is the first one where there is no way I could eat that, up until this moment it just looked like a dream trying all that crazy food. Bile, yup that is truly a step beyond what I am capable of. You truly are the best ever food review show.
Don't tell me sonny is a full American, no American on planet earth can be so humble and loving to this extent. Let alone that we even lost our immigrants through their stereotyping nature. Keep up the good work sonny. Atleast it makes me happy that you enjoyed every part of my continent, AFRICA our beautiful mother!!! Its our nature to welcome and love everybody. Am not apologetic to anyone for being an African. One love!!
