OMG! Rachel and Jun in Simon and Martina's channel?!

Whaaaat Rachel and Jun?!?! Wow my two most viewed channels *_* So excite!

Lol the perks of growing up inner city is we usually have tons of authentic foreign foods. well at least in DC and NY.

witchoftime You have to go back.

No way in hell would any person I know call that legit Mexican food. That's just fast-food with Mexican-INSPIRED flavors. Nothing more.

Lol, same here. I'm Italian, and people keeps mentioning things that don't exist in Italy...like what the hell is "garlic bread"?

@Butt McAss I don't even know what it is, but it seems like everything that contains garlic is Italian food for many people in the States. I've tried explaining that Italian food isn't like that, but there was little to no progress. Apparently yes, garlic bread is Italian and I've never eaten it in Italy because I live in the wrong side of Italy 🤦‍♀️

I would totally make u guys mexican food if i lived in korea

at 1:59 the caption said korean hoe not korean hweh, awkward......

Try to learn grammar yo!

Haha luv dat grammar, yo!

Ikr no??!! *say it like yo*

The Sushi rolls in Australia also have mustard on them and I'm like WTF- Sushi isn't supposed to have mustard on it!!

I used to have western food in my country and I loved them more than my country food. But now i live in US so i eat a lot of western food. And it tastes like sadness. Like wheres all the spices at. You'd think a country that fought for spices so much would put some in their food. And i love spicy food. Here they would advertise like "wow super,mega,extreme, dothraki men warrior spicy chicken" but to me and my friends it tastes like regular chicken. Western countries need to step up their spice game.

All of those things are chemicals.

+The Walrus not really

It's all chemicals. Life is a chemical process.

Erika Suzuki I appreciate both cuisines. Korean food does tend to have more spices. Are you from Japan? I'm not a huge expert on what both countries have to offer. I do love Korean barbecue and Japchae. I also love sushi and ramen. I'd love to try Takoyaki some day. I'm half Chinese so I'm most familiar with Chinese food.

Erika Suzuki You dont even know a cuisine and have the guts to mock it? Just goes to show how short minded you are

I live in Japan and can say Japanese food tends to be more subtle than Korean. It's a lot lighter and isn't heavy on sauces or spice. Also, in the town I live, there are several pizza, Italian, American, Thai, & Chinese restaurants - even a French bakery. Everything has been excellent and overall authentic tasting. Haven't found a Mexican restaurant yet, though.

Erika Suzuki I'm rarely in Tokyo, unfortunately. It seems a little queer that there are so many other types of restaurants, but so few Mexican. I'll have to keep looking. Sometimes you just crave a good enchilada or taco.

Erika Suzuki That doesnt really mean anything, at best you would have only have skimmed the surface of a nations cuisine. Im sure you would have felt the same if someone said 'Japanese food is boring, get much more variety and flavor in my country's food' and says 'I went on a food trip so I know well about Japanese cuisine'

Really? That's fascinating! I've seen a bunch of comments here in the comment section from people saying they get corn on their pizza in England!

Eat Your Kimchi As the person before, I was shocked. I've NEVER seen corn on pizza, I can't even think of one that has corn on it!

Eat Your Kimchi Ahh, so basically I was so perplexed by this... I'm gonna say it, accusation, that I went to dominos pizza for some... research. There is sweetcorn on 3 out of 17 pizzas on the menu. One is tuna and sweetcorn, which is quite a common combination here, not sure bout you guys. Then the vegetarian supreme, then the slightly weirder chicken and sweetcorn. Of course, this was on a purely scientific basis and I didn't enjoy a minute of my research. But now I've given it more thought, I kinda agree. If I saw someone eating pizza with corn on it, I wouldn't bat an eyelid, and I actually love corn on pizza. But If I asked for a margherita or Hawaiian and it came with sweetcorn, I would be rather nonplussed. So I think having corn on pizza is kinda normal here, but it would be wrong to say that it pervades the British pizza market as I may have mistakenly thought you were implying. Sorry for sort of gushing, it's just that this was bugging me so much!

I second this, it's unusual to have corn on pizza in the UK as a rule. You get the occasional cheap supermarket frozen pizza (generally veggie pizzas) that use it because they clearly can't think of anything more inventive to put on, but other than that, you don't come across it that much.

Same here! I've not seen it on any, unless it's vegetarian or with chicken.

When I lived in Brazil the thing I missed the most was fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and iced tea. It just doesn't exist there!

I will take you up on your offer. I would like curry everyday forever, plz :D

Eat Your Kimchi I will be glad to take y'all around Singapore for some curry! Singapore is like a food paradise. If you guys actually come back here, maybe you can try out more dishes of different cultures! Thanks for commenting! :D

+Simon and Martina "curry everyday forever" ... haha

germankiwigal Ah, I thought it was Swedish because there is a pizzeria here that is famous for being the first to serve it.

germankiwigal Very possible.

what about pizza salad? Is that a local thing too?

Shiroari Nah, it's probably just a consequence of pizzerias here serving both pizzas and kebab. Of coarse they will try putting kebab on pizza if they make both in the same kitchen.

mimimurlough Yeah, I think Pizza salad is another swedish thing... Man I thought our food was authentic because of all the immigration, but guess not hahah XD

New ZEALAND represent! lol

im korean living in NZ, and personally i never find Korean food spicy enough, even though I'm quite bad at spiciness than other Koreans.

SOMEONE I guess it also depends where you live in New Zealand? I personally find that some places in the city in Auckland are really nice! Specifically: Bansang on High Street :) San Soo Gab Sun on Queen Street (Midtown) is okay but not as great as Bansang :D

Right? And now I'm completely spoiled Haha. When I'm in certain other regions of the country and I order ethnic cuisine, I'm like "No... this isn't right." xD

True dat!! We are so lucky to live in SF Bay Area.

We are! :D

Good morning!

Eat Your Kimchi Have a good night!

Idk where in America you're getting your sushi but dear God I feel sorry for you. I NEVER get mayonnaise or any sauce besides soy sauce on my sushi.

+wwaxwork When I first arrived in Korea, my roomates and the program coordinator for my study picked me up at the airport and told me they would take me for a special meal. I was excited to taste "real" Korean food for the first time! They took me to Outback Steakhouse.

wwaxwork What is "australian food" though? Besides fairy bread

it's a hit or miss here in the netherlands... there are a very few authentic and cool restaurants. but then you have the tons of chinese and indonesian etc restaurants that are just heating or frying deep-frozen stuff and serve it as if they made it. i eat out quite a lot, but so far i've found like 2 good japanese and 1 good chinese restaurants. i've yet to find a good korean here, although there are more and more popping up, so i'm sure i've just yet to try the good one.

OOOO. Kansas. I live there. Which city? I've always wanted to try Ramen.

There is Pizza Hut in Korea as well but the people in the video are more talking about the smaller individual owned pizza places

oh cool :D

Yes singapore has so much good food , i feel so lucky ~~~

прочитал как "in Soviet Korea"

Let's go together! Mexican traditionalists, on food, unite!

Yes! \o/

LexiLove777 We would rock it! ***** Well, I was born in Mexico and moved to the US, but my mom makes the best Mexican food! It's the real deal!

yeah Mexico! hahha but it's fried rice, not steamed rice(??) tacos need cliantro! and I hate guacamole so I don't care about not having avocados in Korea(??)

I don't eat fried rice so I don¿t know what you are talking about lol. Avocados are awesome.

I mean, the korean, chinese, thai, japanese rice is like in water, steamed(?) and, well, in my family we fry de rice, and then add the tomato sauce and stuffXD that's what I meant XD

Ahhh Yeah I sometimes eat that but in my house it's usually more white rice with vegetables :))))

I I actually always thought Mexican food was similar to Indian food more than anything with the use of tortillas and salsas. Plus the spiciness (I think) is a little more not fatty, but not as acidic as Asian spice but idk I was raised eating Asians foods and the other foods occasionally so idk

Ughh...pickled onions on pho?? -_-

Ngoc-Tran Le EW!!! There's this Pho place (well I pronounce it "faux" place as they put in pickled onions, I think I even had one their that tasted like it had pickle juice and other weird things (i.e. pickled radish and cabbage)! This is a semi-upscale place run 100% (except maybe the dishwashers) are ALL Korean! Yet, they think adding ALL this nastiness makes it SOMEHOW pleasing to the "American" palate!?! WTF!?! O.O!!!

TheMechanicalGirl999 Ugh that just sounds gross. Pho isn't even my most favorite food (despite what some non-Viets think LOL).

hahaha and now the corn pizza.. omg... i remember buying a margherita pizza in Wonju, and it came with like... corn, and onions, and i was sort of just staring at it for five minutes thinking "wtf just happened." i mean, i knew of all the potato pizza, cranberry pizza, blueberry pizza, even corn pizza, but if i see margherita pizza on the menu, and then get corn and onions on it, i just... i mean...

and now the curry.. hahaha ok yeah showing this to my bf asap. xD i told him about the japanese curry too like "so when you come here, we have to go for curry! I mean.. it's not actually curry. it's brown. but it's delicious!" whereas, i like the korean curry and it does seem to actually have curry in it, but like you said it's not at all spicy so it's its own kind of "curry". like the japanese one, also a bit. its own kind of curry. but super yummy and crazy addictive.

im the same way lol, i also prefer eating corn on the cob instead of just corn already plucked from the cob :S

Xiumin Kim SOOO TRUE! Chinese food in america, is just...... UGHHHHH *disgusted* #fried #cliche #americanizedcrap lol

***** i swear they skimp on the water. ugh. And why do they give fortune cookies?! It's not even invented in China, but in San Francisco California! Ugh..

Xiumin Kim I think it was something the Chinese Americans made up a long time ago in the early 1900s I think :-/ I don't think Chinese food in America would fit in the same category since (American) Chinese food was made such a long time ago (substitution was involved I think). But I could be wrong

Amber Frazier and that's pretty much exactly what i said...

Oh, well I was just throwing in my two cents mainly because other so-called foreign foods are more recent. Like Chinese food became Americanized over time while other foods just kind of got weird the very second it came to America. I do have a question though, other than the vegetables and other ingredients within the food, is American Chinese food made completely differently in your opinion?

but they've actually had Indian food in other places. And I think you kind of know when things are westernized. For example, Mexican food, you think, couldn't be Americanized, BUT IT CAN BE!! and for me its a very sad thing. I grew up in an old fashioned Mexican home and now I live with an elderly Chicano lady but she cooks in a very Americanized way which I don't like at all. Apparently, she also had a family restaurant. Anyway, I've had Thai food too and it's very different from what I'm used to but I liked it a lot and I'm pretty sure it wasn't westernized either. I take a Japanese class and my teacher tells us about food she's used to eating and that she can still get with ease here. So there are plenty of places in the US or North America where you can find restaurants that aren't westernized because they are family owned and by people that actually came from the country that they are representing with their food. Regardless, there will still be some exceptions, especially if you are one of those people who thinks that Taco Bell is Mexican food(it is a heavily westernized version), but overall I think you can find plenty of places in the heavily populated areas of the US that will do justice to foreign foods. I think their term "koreanized" is a good way of them looking at it. They're not bashing on Korea, but it is different, and a good way of them describing what they experienced. Especially, since Korea is not being swamped with people from other countries who come to live there. In general their culture and people stay relatively the same. It's like when Japan was pro isolationism, or America was pro isolationism, and that's where you could generalize most of the country because they weren't being exposed to change or influence from other countries. The same thing happens with Korea. They are still relatively new to seeing foreigners and their thoughts on foreigners are also pretty collective. So they aren't going to being exposed new things or change as often. As a result other people/businesses that go there will start changing to better suit the majority, which is Korean people.

+Thunderbolt22A10 Most American's cannot handle the spice of Indian food. I hope you can find a good restaurant though.

xD same thing in Germany.. I always bring some extra chilli flakes

yeah I went to my indian restaruant once and it was so freaking spicy I could not even eat. Although my fault for ordering something spicy

ooh yes Jajangmyeon is originally Chinese but it tastes completely different in China than in Korea. The sauce is completely different (in Korea is more sweet but in northern China it's super super salty so there is only tiny bit of sauce) and to be honest the Korean version is a bit better lol :D

Bruce Lee yep they are

You've been to each? :D I'm happy to hear this in that case, since I was never sure, even though a lot of the restaurants are run by Chinese people (or Taiwanese in some cases) it still could have been westernized for all I knew. XP

gotta find the good stuff :)

You've ever tried Chinese Puerto Ricanized food?

I guess there's our lesson in extremity. Or something like that
