Maybe it's just because I love food, travel, hip hop and real life characters, but this show is my fucking jam. I'm glad munchies is re-uploading this 'cause I didn't get to watch it on Vice.

The last 50 seconds of this episode really stuck out to me, a powerful message that we should all learn to understand.

I have so much respect for Eddie and just the way he appreciates history and culture

"animal protein" Immediately points at dogs me: ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY SOMETHING???

no culture is better than another. its just is. huang you're my favorite Chinese guy. so far.

Holy shit this guy is one well spoken dude goddamn

This is by far my favorite episode of anything Eddie has been in.

By far one of the best episodes!

Dam this is what I love, I long for episodes like this. Highlights that show the culture, way of life, and food of the native Taiwanese. All combined together with a perfect narration and Eddie's charm. Thanks Munchies.

Just for the record, though the city was a mining town before it was turned to a tourist attraction, the charcoal flavour in tofu did not came from the water. It actually came from the emusilver that is used. Normally, tofu uses food grade lime or bittern as emulsifier; but in Sheng Keng, traditionally, they use burned straw. That is what gives the Sheng Keng tofu that special taste

I have to get the name of that song at the end so I can get on with my life. I won't stop obsessing about it until find it!

a close up shot at the dog 2:30 when talkin about animal protein, lmao

I love that message.Nothing is better than anything else. It just is.I enjoyed watching this three part series. Another beautiful part of the world.

I fuckin love Eddie... he needs his own syndicated show he's the next Tony Bourdain... unless he wants to stay with Vice... doesn't matter to me i'll watch it either way

Thanks for doing these series, Eddie. I haven't been to the motherland in over 10 years. I think it's about time to go back and tear that shit up

Being a Taiwanese too, I am so proud of Eddie. Thanks for introduce Taiwan to every one in the world. It's a really nice place!!! Welcome to visit.

Ma another Back In Taiwan video! these Taiwan series are awesome!

I love the segments about Taiwan. They should make more :P

talking about animal protein and cuts to a dog...LOL

I love this "Back In Taiwan" series!!! My family immigrated to the States when I was only 3 yrs old, and I haven't had an opportunity to visit. Watching this series really inspires me to prioritize Taiwan as a destination in the near future. Great work! Keep the videos coming.

MY HOME TOWN

Thank you Eddie for the life lessons :)

love this, love taiwan, much respect!!

The people there seem really nice and welcoming, I loved those ancient practices too like the tea, and the healing from bringing blood to the surface of the skin. Really really cool, Taiwan is definitely on my list of places to go.

Eddie is humble asf man.........that routine for the tea pots was intresting

Love this show

Hi. I dig your show. It makes me want to go the places that you have featured and try all the different awesome foods. Thanks for the eye opener.

I love Eddie!!!!

just found your documentary, i like it! greetings from nuremberg germany

i missed the condensing of fresh off the boat into this but i like the move. can't wait to see where the boi goes next

I need more. More content, please!

Eddie Houng is an urban philosopher

good to see the herbal medicine done, best thing on this one with the first food

A real citizen diplomat! It's great that he feels comfortable in different cultures, and good for his parents who passed on their language, culture, and cuisine to their kids! I love how down-to-earth he is (not crazy about his tacky American flag style though!). It's nice to see an Anthony Bourdain-type who has connections to other cultures. My dream job someday...

Always wraps up an episode with some serious knowledge. Loved the T-Shirt too if anyone knows where to grab one.

whats the song that starts at 7:35

More episode please damn I love the show

cool journey !

Eddie is just like my cousin Teddy, he is 40 years old and has zero body hair. We named him Smooth Ted back in highschool and the name just stuck. When we talk about him we would just go on about how smooth he is at doing things.

Nice

How do people not fuck with tofu? It literally can taste like anything. The flavors and textures are limitless

Half a year away from Taiwan and I miss all the tofu dish so much. Anyone know any good Taiwanese cuisine place in Toronto?

dope show

Name of the song at the end?

those undefeated visvim fbt's are insane

Oh man, I miss Taiwan :(

BEST SHOW ON VICE. TOP TEN INTERNET

Still here in 2023🎉

No culture is better or worse than another, it just is.

"animal protein" cuts to the dog 2:30

you should try filipino food in "Tagpuan Resto", that's located in Tan Dzi Taichung.

stinky tofob had me dead

Randal Cunningham reference 👍🏽

Thought u didn’t know chineex

I'm still skeptical about the cupping but that's just me.

Rockin' that Obama T-shirt at 6:00

Song that starts at 8:20 ?

What's the song 7:31 - 8:10? anyone please?

With out trust there is only the re shapeing in a relationship.

Yo what's up with the Bacardi ad every time man!

He looks like asian Bobby Hill

how do you not like tofu?

Wait I thought this was huangs world lol

Song at the end, nobody on the planet knows what it is... not even shazam.

The 1000th thumb up XD.

Uprated, shared. Another interesting one. Hormonal problems, fibroids = soya. I can't handle it, unfortunately. Lots of stuff in this one. Here in France, a lot of stuff like the "cupping" is at least partially covered by basic universal health care. Mésothérapie, acupuncture, homeopathy, sophrologie, lymphatic drainage, physical therapy, chiropractors who use pressure points on the neck to give you the feeling of a long weekend vacation of rest, and plenty of Asiatic doctors who tend to be excellent. I've taken friends visiting from the States around to have eye checks and glasses, dental care, et c. Enough about France, I like it here. Again, I would have had at least a bite of everything shown here, even the tofu. I agree with what you said at the end, very much -- one culture is not better than another, just it's own thing. I studied Chinese herbology decades ago, formally, and still refer to my materials. Just cleared up a tooth abcess in two days, will just go next week to a regular dentist for a classic check. Very informative despite the rudeness often, ha ha ha! Thank you. You are what you are, Mr. Huang. Salute!

Can someone tell me the name of the restaurant?

He's still calling it "fresh off the boat". Maybe these were filmed before the name change.

Voodou comes from traditions further than 5,000 years also! Dont put one down while lifting another. Thanks

top three hottest chubbies. 1 Eddie Huang 2. Action Bronson 3. Duff from Ace of Cakes.

What song is playing at 1:24 to 1:33 ?

2:35 you done asian dirty

this is the real fresh off the boat we want to see not that bullshit thats on abc

The texture of tofu is what gets to me:/

I believe Eddie Huang meant the century egg and not a thousand year old egg lol. Nigga be changing its name to millenium egg lol

Super FOB

What's the song that plays at 1:12?

Some comments to expand on Eddie's observations, from a Westerner who's lived in Taiwan for 30+ years -- * Stinky Tofu: I am completely in a minority when I say I don't understand the big deal. It's a decent tasting dish that makes the whole neighborhood smell like a toilet. People who like snacking caviar in an outhouse can appreciate it. * The 1,000-year old eggs (or 100 years, whatever) are called pi-dan. "Dan" here means egg. This, with tofu, is a fantastic help to a hangover. I was told by a girl whose family owned an egg business that originally, horse urine was used to soak the eggs in to turn them greenish-clear, but now they use chemicals. Not sure which is more unsettling. * Chinese-medicine doctors can be as quacky as Western ones, although the latter will be more expensive. Had a back problem, went to a"famous" Chinese doctor for two months, nothing. Found a different doctor, fixed me. Pay attention to your body, not the myths. * As The Man says: cultures are just different, not better or worse. Lots of Taiwanese view the USA as the promised land. I'm very happy in Taiwan.

make a tofu sandwich

Hahaha, "you can't get that protein from animal"... then the camera moved to the dog...Funny, dude, but I am a dog lover as a Chinese.

Its just tofu dude

Hey man i saw you on vice. where exactly is your resturant located? i live in nyc and would fuckin love to come eat at your resturant! your hilarious bro

Love how he said "Animal Proteins" and the camera pans over to a dog 🤣

where the fuck does he get them crazy team USA t-shirts

不要照了啦

They we re-uploaded to remove old show name because ABC owns rights now.

Lol i would like to know what the 43 people that disliked this video disliked about this video xD

But Chinese people, by in large, are very ethnocentric and have a sense of cultural superiority. How do you explain that?

I like your shirt....Until I saw the back of it..

Dude stinky tofu smells so bad I can't get near it.

(O3:33) How many Super Bowls did Randall Cunningham WiN?

Eddie Huang Can't say the word "similar".

His Chinese skills are horrendous lol

lmfao i hope he knows that the practice at 4:30 is total bullshit

5 thousand year old pfft yea right the oldest civilisation is sumeria babylon
