Thanks for watching everyone! Colombia's fruit scene really blew my mind. Tastes and textures and I could have never imagined. I hope you'll check out the rest of the Borders series from Colombia: ruclips.net/video/NU0RqwweuWY/видео.html&
Johnny, I would watch anything you record.
Gorgeous aerial shots, thanks for showing us beautiful Colombia
Nice Vid Johnny! How were the fruits?
Thanks johnny
Cuidado con las pitallas, son ricas pero no es conveniente comerse mas de dos enteras
The fact that Jhonny can speak Spanish makes this video much better.
Yup! He was the one who taught me Spanish! He lived in Mexico for two years and became fluent
@@Philhampton89 Cool!
As a Colombian it is almost weirdly incredible for me to think that not many countries are as diverse as my country. Seen videos like this not only remind me that I grew up in a paradise of diversity but they also make me feel very proud of being Colombian. As a country that has been overshadowed by its complex political history for many years, it is amazing to see that we are moving forward. We’re moving to a phase of development and hopefully recognition.
Well said
Viva América! Brasil & Colombia juntos.
yeah most south american countries are really diverse tbh but people dont know much about our rich culture besides the food and the music....
Uggh... Welcome to India
@@SayeeswarAnirutho Are you being snarky right now?! What's your point?
Wow, aun que soy mexicano me siento tan orgulloso de mis hermanos y hermanas colombianos y de ser parte de una familia tan grande con una cultura tan rica y importante, los latinos y nuestra tierra es tan increíble
Gracias, cuate. México y Colombia siempre han mantenido buenas relaciones.
¿Me pregunto si tiene mangosteen en México? Voy a ir allí en en la próxima mes y me encanta comer esta fruta!
(lo siento por me malo español)
@@KevinHernandez-oh5pn don't bother with the dipshit troll, he lives a sad existence and is only trying to bring others down with him. But about my question, maybe I didn't phrase it correctly and I suppose I could just Google it but I'm genuinely curious if México has mangosteens?!
Y ustedes los mexicanos son nuestros hermanos. Saludos desde Bogotá mi hermano, espero ir a Cancún pronto para conocer esa belleza de país que tienen.
This market is straight up heaven. I will go there one day!
Love you videos man, we will be glad to have you here
I've been there and it is!! Vegetarian heaven
It doesn’t smell good tho
Don't go alone.
Ommmggg i love u guys
Its very interesting how as a Colombian I think all of these fruits are really common, we take them for granted and we don’t really appreciate the huge diversity we have. Very cool video
yeah true! we also have the same fruits (with different names) in bolivia and i grew up with them and consider them normal lol
@@_de_reve lol same with me ( i live in peru ) and these fruits are normal
Here in INDIA as well but with different names and sizes.
That’s true my friend, in the description. I was laughing because the title said: Trying weird fruit...😂😂😂😂...like wth...it’s just fruit! Jajaja
It's BEAUTIFUL! THERE'S SO MUCH DIVERISTY!!! I loved it when just started living here
Can this guy just make his own RUclips channel? He's the only reason I'm subbed to Vox lol
He actually has. Search for 'Johnny Harris'. :)
Check out "Weird Explorer" for more unusual fruits. ruclips.net/channel/UChsbD6Clp-ZPqKwXJR3V7DQfeatured?&ab_channel=WeirdExplorer
Yeah but I'm sure Vox provides him with a lot of resources that make it easier for him to make his awesome viddos
Ooh, thanks Niel and Edd! Also yeah Vox helps fund him, so subbing to them is a worthy sacrifice
yepp.
Man... guanabana with milk and bit of sugar is HEAVEN
I like it with condensed milk.
Wait to get to the toilet.
@@nikovanegas2735 as a drink or ?
I came here to say that! Guanabana or the English name- soursop- with milk, sugar and ice in a blender. Unreal. In the US it can be difficult to find the fresh fruit but Goya sells the frozen pulp with nothing added. Try it! Thank you for the visit to Colombia and for this excellent video.
But why guanabana when chirimoya is simply BETTER?
Eaters and Vox crossover?! Damn this is awesome
i think so too!
eater is owned by vox media, so that's why it's on here instead of vox
Eater, Verge and a few other channels and magazines all united and formed Vox Media.
Went to this market in Bogota in September and tried over 15 fruits on our tour. So many good flavors and tastes were not used to in the US. It was an awesome experience I can't wait to go back to Colombia!
♥️♥️
My parents are from Colombia and I lived there for a couple months and I miss the food the most. You truly don't know how bad the food is in the Untied States until you leave the country.
You're either crazy or just describing food in the United States. Its summer and spring all year in Colombia so everything is fresh and taste amazing
The food from the andes mountains is what your talking about, I don't like the taste of the food up there. Try the food from the rest of the country the Caribbean cuisine and the pacific.
Anthony Atencio Well Colombia has pacific ocean and Caribbean Sea I think you can taste those flavors in colombia too 🇨🇴
Facts 😂😂🤙🏾🇨🇴♥️
I did and those are the ones I like the most. Mostly the Caribbean cuisine which it's the one I grew up with.
As a Colombian, I thank you for coming to Colombia and showing the rest of the world what a truly wonderful place Colombia is. On a square meter basis, no country is more bio diverse. Colombia accounts for less than one percent of the Earth’s land mass but within our borders approximately 20 percent of all species are found. Brazil has more species but Brazil is 7x larger than Colombia. Fruit is ubiquitous in Colombia, there are fruit carts everywhere. Given the country’s vast number of ecosystems and climates, we can grow just about anything though not necessarily in great quantity. Lulo, also called naranjilla, is a member of the nightshade family. It is only found in Colombia and Ecuador. It is primarily consumed as a juice. The fruit contains a higher amount of vitamin C than any citrus and more amino acids than any other fruit on the planet. You drink a glass of lulo and it is instant energy and refreshment.
I've been away from Colombia for almost 13 years, and one of the things I miss the most is the food, specially the fruits. I remember always drinking freshly made juice, each day a different fruit.
As a Colombian-Canadian, I’d like to thank you for sharing this with the world. Colombia is a wonderful place, with excellent food 😀
nispero, guama, curuba, tomate de arbol, tamarindo, borojo, guayaba, uva playera, grosella, fruta de pan, caimito, chontaduro, ciruelitas, corozo, marañon, uchuva, lulo, etc...
Dulce de grocella, lo mejor.
uva playera es el mismo agraz silvestre?
@@810juanc apenas escuché de la uva playera hace dos semanas en un viaje, no se si saben parecido pero no son lo mismo, la uva playera si es como una uva pero más alargada
La feijoa💕
i love that he speaks Spanish
I'm a Colombian and I live in Bogotá. I can safely say Colombia is a complete waste of everything. It's so beautiful and so biodiverse, yet it has not been able to take off!
I'm so thankful people like Johnny are making these amazing videos in my country, thanks!
And I thought I've eaten a lot of fruits in my life... And this come rolling in😐
They look so delicious 😋
Fujoshi Here lol...
If you like food you should travel to colombia, the best fruit and fast food
we have a native kind of grape -berry called wild agraz. It will change your life, we make medicinal wine, jams and desserts with that, friend.
@@810juanc sounds delicious 😋.
they are really tasty.
Gracias por venir a Colombia.
Guanabana. We also have that in the Philippines and we call it Guyabano. I think it is called Soursop in English.
My favorite market in the world! I am in love with the fruits of Colombia.
I’ve been here! Amazing market, so much flavor. My favorite country in the world
As a Colombian, thank you for coming to Colombia and talk possitive about this beautiful country to the rest of the world what a truly wonderful place Colombia is.
OMG!! Tears of happiness remembering every fruit, your descriptions were perfect! Your face before, during and after the guanábana testing is priceless LOL! You either love guanábana like me, or can't even see it like my wife. Keep enjoying my motherland Colombia, magical realism!
Been there in colombia. Such a beautiful country. Has a lot to offer.
So innocent! I live in Colombia so those fruits are my daily basis. My personal recommendation: Lulo smoothie.
Como venezolano que tiene 5 años viviendo en Escocia, yo veo este vídeo y se me hace un agua a la boca que no te imaginas...
It is really funny how as a Colombian it was pretty common for me to bring those fruits as lunch when I was at school. Sometimes we forget how diverse we are. Amazing vid, and the Guanabana is the best fruit ever :3
I cried watching this video, i feel so blessed of belong to this beautifull country, and have this types of fruits on my table everyday, is just priceless, I LOVE 🇨🇴 COLOMBIA
When you're Hispanic and know all them fruits. I could literally taste each as he tasted them XD
When you're Hispanic and don't know any of the fruits... Let's not keep this myth that all Latin American countries are the same.
Salvadoran here, I knew most of them, except we know a couple of them with different names. Some of them we've even grown in our garden at home, but I have to confess I don't like all of them haha.
A lot of these fruits don’t grow in Central America ... not all Hispanics know them
All those fruits were new for him and I drink those fruits juice very often, I feel so lucky, Viva Colombia
So that you see how hard it is to move to the States or Europe and not miss hometown Colombia.
Compared with anywhere in the States or Canada were 10x more alive and blessed with nature inside and out, nature turned maracas, nature inside you in the best juices of the world. I missed and always will. Colombia makes you feel alive.
Being from Colombia it is crazy to see this kind of videos where people gets so happy and surprised by the fruits that are part of my day-to-day life. I can't imagine a day when i dont get to go out to buy a big ready to eat avocado just cause i feel like it or get lulos or granadillas because they are things that i grew up eating all the time.
I wouldn’t eat a whole pitaya like that... he’ll regret that later on the toilet.
really?
Nam D nah, one pitaya won’t really be a problem. It’s true that it has laxative properties, and if you eat several of them at once you will definitely feel it, but just one won’t be an issue, I do it from time to time.
@@chilepeulla good to know. thanks!
@@namdizzle07 yeah, just one, no more than that
That's exactly what I thought! They should've warned him...
Hey Johnny. I am Colombian living in Canada And I really appreciate you taking the time to check out my Country. Thank you for this video and the videos you made for Vox. I wish you could had spent more time in colombia to see more of my country. Once again thank you for all this great job. God bless
'it tastes like raw meat....this is up there with my favorite'......WHAT.
It tastes nothing like meat, though. It might look like fish meat, but its juicy and it smells sweet, and the taste is tangy and sweet at the same time, kinda like grapes or strawberries, but the flavour itself is unique, like most fruits'. I believe that fruit is called soursop in English. It's delicious. We also have 'Guanábana' milkshakes or smoothies, as well as ice cream and yogurt. Also, from the outside it looks like a green Durian, the super stinky asian fruit, but it's nothing like it. The scent is really pleasant and fruity. It's one of my all-time favourite fruits.
*Looks like* raw meat. That's what he said.
@@snowdjagha 4:38 No. You're wrong. This is what he said verbatim: "I don't know it's like it's like (sic) raw meat it almost tastes like..." then he mumbles a word or two then he says: "it tastes like raw meat, but it's like sweet..."
who doesn't like raw meat??
Iz Harris He probably meant the texture.
Colombia is the country of the best coffee, the most amazing emeralds, the most beautiful flowers, the most diverse landscapes and of course the one with the biggest variety of fruits, so we are so blessed and fortunate.
you forgot about the women my dude... oh the colombians
So, how was your night?
Chewing pitahaya seeds (well known for their laxative properties), biting a lulo like an orange or mamoncillo seeds... my sweet summer child! XD
I loved it. Too bad you did this in Bogotá. Despite it is the best place to do this in the city, the city itself is not the most fruit-diverse place in the country. But it is a good glimpse and teaser of our fruit diversity anyway. I'm glad you liked it.
As a colombian I loooove watching people enjoy our culture. And this video definitely is making me crave some fruit rn. Granadilla is my fave and I make sure to eat a ton of it whenever I visit family
Bro this video gives me so much nostalgia
OMG COLOMBIA IS SO DIVERSE 😍❤️🇨🇴 The people, the food , the cities , the music all the things you can imagine inside a country 😱❤️🇨🇴🌺☀️
♥️♥️♥️🇨🇴
The big avocados are actually standard in Florida. I was surprised and disappointed the first time I had a Hass because I felt I was being cheated.
This could've been the 5th episode of season 3 of Borders. I can't get enough of Johnny 😂❤️
Colombia tierra querida !! Saludos les doy desde Colombia FAMILIA 🇨🇴
Son bienvenidos por esta tierrita, sobretodo en la sucursal de cielo
🇨🇴♥️🇨🇴
Thank you for showing a different face of Colombia. We are diverse, multicultural, happy, and hardworking people.
I’ll be leaving for Colombia in two days I’ll definitely go here thanks for letting me know about this place ❤️
if you go, keep in mind some fruits are way better as juices. Most of these with water and a few with milk.
hope you have an awesome time!
This is like a travel vlog with an extra level of production that makes it just perfect
Boyyy he just ate that pitaya like his life depended on it, he's gonna poop in his pants
I love THESE kinds of vlogs. SO much better than other kinds.
You should have tried Madroño, guayaba agria! And of course mango biche with lime and salt!! FYI Colombians love sour fruit!! 😍
uy sí, esa es la que tiene como roja con una cabecita negra y estan ácida que se arruga la boca por dentro? XD
Uff guayaba agria con un poquito de sal uuuffff que rico o un jugo con hielo uuuffff Yum...
Im Colombian and I cannot begin to appreciate this channel for showing the beauty in my country!!!!
I loved this episode! 2:32 correction : ahuyama is not sweet potato, it is squash haha !
Right! He only substituted one for the other
Correct!
We loved your country
He was talking about how it TASTES though lol
afenismama I know this is not a big deal AT ALL lol but to be precise, the lady said “like ahuyama”, and Johnny nodded and said, yes like sweet potato as if what she had said was “it’s like sweet potato”, but she said it’s like “ahuyama” so I don’t think he was comparing the taste to sweet potato, he was agreeing with the lady about what it tasted like (he understood ahuyama to be sweet potato fam) which he got wrong lol
Johnny, you are incredible. I love to see your videos, especially this one. In fact, the last month I was in Colombia with my norwegian husband, and then the first place that we were visiting it was Paloquemao, and we were there because of U. Thanks a lot!
I have experience with a lot of these fruits. Lulo smoothies were my favorite and when I was little my mom would make me one every day after lunch. Sapote is a pain in the ass to peel but it's oh so sweet and satisfying. Granadilla you can open by smacking it against your forehead. Pitaya would not agree with my stomach but it's good if you're constipated lol. Mamomcillo is super portable and I would usually bring a bag of them in my lunchbox to school. Guanábana is probably one of the most delicious fruits you'll ever taste.
Yo! I’m glad you make this like this about my country 👍
mamoncillos are all over the carribbean and called different names! some countries call them quenepas and others call them genips! Favorite fruit from my childhood
Genips lol! I love those, and his reaction to eating it was hilarious
Colombia, te extraño 😍🇨🇴
BIG WARNING, I want to post this fast for everyone to read. DO NOT CHEW the seeds of the Pitaya (also known as yellow dragon fruit). This fruit is delicious but the seeds are known to be LAXATIVE. If this was posted already I feel it should be said again. Great show!!!. Love the reporting done by VOX.
That is factually not true. Dragonfruit (pitaya) seeds are eaten and chewed all the time, with no noticeable laxative effect, besides the normal effect from eating the fiber in any other fruit.
@@harriscout I am talking from personal experience. It was a matter of almost certainty, that if I bit on most of the seeds of the yellow version of this fruit (nothing with the red), while in my country, I would get a bad case of the runs. It may be anecdotal, to just me, or to the origin of the fruit and the soils that feed its plant. Or given that some of the oils that are contained in this seed are known to have laxative properties I have a stronger response to them than others. Would you risk it on a vacation trip?? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitaya
Don't ruin the fun! 42M Americans suffering from constipation :)
It is hard to do, when it is ripe the seed are too weak and you don't feel them. I've eaten them and no problem by now.
Now you make me want to eat it....
Once again thanks for showing some of the best parts of a super diverse country as Colombia!!!
I wish these fruit were common in North America. I don’t want any more cheeseburgers!
Colombia is (South) America
Juanca Monsalvo thank you. My apologies
Try international markets. They may carry some of the fruits shown in the vid
Juanca Monsalvo Somos todos americanos. Apenas não estadunidenses. Viva América!
Im colombian and i lived in new jersey for 3 years and i couldnt live there anymore, just precessed food, i gain 20 pounds, when i came back to colombia in 3 months i came back to my normal weight, whats going on with food Over there?
I totally enjoyed this episode. I grew up in Colombia and miss the fresh, and varied fruit.
Mamoncillo are my favorite fruit, but in Jamaica we call them guineps
Como amo mi país! gracias por mostrarlo como es, diverso, hermoso, superando sus dificultades
I just booked a flight from ORD to Bogota with Avios points after watching this. @thepointsguy you guys should collab with Johnny Harris!
I live in South East Asia and half of these fruits grow here too! I can feel my mouth watering the whole video coz I know they taste mostly sour, especially guanabana/soursop one.
no quiero pensar en el estado del estomago de el jajaja
omg I love that you are showing off my country!!! I feel so proud. but also homeboy your stomach lmao you are breaking records with the amount of fiber-full foods you're eating.
Que increíble video de mi país!!!
who else is here from vox?
Wait. This isn't Vox?
Me encanta Paloquemao! Paloquemao-fan number 1!
Guanabana, also known as sour sop
Or guyabano in ph :)
Elijah Logan thanks. For a moment there, I thought that was a fruit that looked like sour sop.
My dad makes a slurpee out of them. Swoon.
Looks like a massive custard apple. Does it taste similar?
Lol yesss! I was looking thru the comments for the name (Guyanese calls it Soursop too)
I'm from Indonesia and LOTS of those fruits are common here (with different names). Fruits that I always thought as local to Indonesia. It blows my mind to see those fruits exist in other countries as well. Great video!
Interesting fruits😍😍😍
OMG I really want that💖💖
I love Johnny. ¡Viva Colombia!
Looks like pokemon food
sweczka24 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 OMG
Where do you think they took the inspiration from?
How on Earth are you such a good story teller? Everything is made just so clear and entertaining at the same time.
If fruit is "nature's candy" then that's my kind of candy store!
Loved seeing Johnny's reaction to so many tastes and textures that we grew up with and take for granted sometimes. 🙌🙌
From Borders ep3 to this video of Eater real quick. Lol
Loved to watch all the exotic fruits. I wish I could be there... 😍
Some of those fruits are known by different names here in the Caribbean.
I went down there about 6 years ago, and have always told my wife that the fruit and the fruit stands were insane! I'm going to have to show her this video!
0:46 the guys who made that instrumental are from my hometown.
Bri10 what’s the track? I hear it sampled everywhere but I can never find the original!
my guy, lowfi is the best way to cover a jonny vox vid, cheers to ur home town boys
Title? Link? Please I'm dying to know!
I love this guy is so open mind. Thanks!
市場で食べるフルーツは
美味しんだろな😋
I have a guanábana tree in my backyard, in Barranquilla, and when guanábanas are in season my family and I are the happiest 😁😁
You're not suppose to chew granadilla :P you swallow it, otherwise the seeds will give you a sour taste :P That's actually a pretty common mistake to make
Also, did you swallow guanabana's seeds?? :P
And get the seed in the tp when i wipe? No thanks jajajaja
No!!! If you swallow the Granadilla seeds you'll end up popping them complete. These must be chew and doesn't taste bad or sour at all.
On the other hand Guanabana seeds shouldn't be consumed or swallowed because these are hard and big and can give you stomach pain...
I always chew them, they are delicious!
true
I'm from Colombia and this video is amazing! Thanks a lot for showing this face of our amazing country. Keep the great work.
Guanabana? Isn't that Sour Sop? And that fruit Mamoncillo, we call it "Ackee" in my country St.lucia.
I thinks it's Spanish names vs English Caribbean names lol
or guinep in Jamaica
I think you're confused with the fruits, I'll give you their scientific names so there's no misconception between translations (even in Spanish, we have a lot of different names for the same fruit), Guanábana = Annona muricata, Ackee = Blighia sapida, Mamoncillo = Melicoccus bijugatus, Mangostino = Garcinia mangostana.
My mother was Colombian and I would go to that country just for its fruits. They are amazing! And so it's the cuisine from the different regions. And I am vegetarian. Yummy!
Was I the only one who said "Goodbye Dude" when he said he was going to eat all the fruits?
I want some of them avocados for guac.
hass avocados are better for guac tbh.
We take them for granted bro
This type of avocadoes would be wasted on guacamole tho, they are better to eat by themselves or as a compliment for a dish.
Always pleasing to watch your documentaries
All except for the tiny fruit 🍉 is also Available in India 🇮🇳 too
The guanabana looked really similar to what we Indians usually call a custard apple and sapote was similar looking to an Indian sapota(chickoo). There is a high chance these fruits came to India via trade a long time ago along with tomatoes, potatoes and chillies
Was looking for this!
Gracias por venir a Colombia y mostrar nuestro pais
Pitaya is the same as dragonfruit, right? the interior looks the same, but the outside is yellow, where I'm used to a deep dark pink.
Yep, there's also another kind of dragonfruit with pink pulp.
This one is smaller and white inside. Slightly sweet and watery.
it's a different species but you're right. The yellow one is cheaper, has a stronger taste and it's more suited for exports as the red (asian one) is way more delicate and harder to grow.
Alot of these fruits, such as Lulo, Maracuya, and Borojo are fantastic juices. Great video, I miss my beautiful Colombia.
Guanabana=Soursop, Granadilla=Passion Fruit, Pitaya=Dragonfruit.
Was looking for this
Granadilla isn't passion fruit , maracuyá is.
Maracuyá is Passion Fruit nor Granadilla
Granadilla is kind of a passion fruit, but sweeter.
Actually, passion frit is more similar to chulupa instead of maracuya, though maracuya is on the same family, it is way bigger and sweeter...
Y yo aquí como todo esto todo el tiempo.... btw i love this video so much thank you for showing my country as a beautiful place full of biodiversity and not like a place full of drug dealers. Amo mi Colombia, amo mi país!
Where on the internet can I find that 3D Earth map! I'm tripping
Thanks for showing all this good sides of Colombia , it’s a beautiful country with such a bad reputation, and by doing what you do you help us show the world also how diverse and incredible this country is
