This reply needs to be pinned.

Surströmming is eaten a bit like a taco, flatbread filled with new potatoes, sour cream and an onion butter sauce. As a tradition it's mayorly just an old folks thing these days though.

So... thise were alll.. REAL meals she was talking about... Huh.... +10 to random knowledge I guess I agree this needs a pin

THEYRE ALL REAL??

THE DISHES ARE REEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL

That’s the command for “Vomit - ENGAGE”

Hearing Dimitri gag right before he replied was the cherry on top

Wonder how Clod and Edgelord would’ve reacted.

@@whitewolf3051 Claude would use Chloe’s “Folk Food” for his Schemes & Edelgard same as Everyone else

@@herowatcher8403 Oh yeah, from what little of Three Houses I played, that seems about right. Wonder if Clod's victims would be Edgelord, Demented, Lysithea, or even Bernie.

Don't count out texture. fish eyes surely can't be pleasent

I remember there is a cooking minigame so they better a god and pray Chloe ain't the chef

@@gary25566 “pick a god and pray”

@@gary25566 Well technically that I did had Chloe be the chef at one point in the cafe, but the others did said the food went really good. I definitely don't think she might have used the folk food as a recipe.

Gullveig has no escape.

@@theredguardowen8083 my boi frederick

From what briefly I played of Fates Birthrights, I say more of the former, but it could also be both.

Remember in Nohr they were in the waning period where there was never any sunlight. One can not be too picky with what one can eat is so limited. After awhile what you and I would consider normal food would loose it's appeal.

Well, Nohr is a poor kingdom with literally no sunlight ever (unless the skies above Nohr and Hoshido change, but it's an extremely rare occurrence), so added to the fact that Camilla is kinda insane... It's not too surprising to see her react like this lol.

Camilla is actually a very patient and not a judgmental person to her allies. A good example is her support with Odin.

@@drunknbard2807 Ah but consider, to get that support I have to play Fates, a fate I wouldn't wish on anyone.

So, *if* Robin wasn’t an emblem, he would join her in a fine dining experience?

@@whitewolf3051 he’d at least humor her. Byleth might join in, has cast iron stomach.

@@ranger24ff proven by how, according to Three Hopes, he has a lot of liked foods and no disliked foods.

To be fair, it does sound like the smell would make people faint. I haven’t played the game this Macaiah character shows up in, so I ask, is she really this sassy?

@@whitewolf3051 It’s been over a decade since I played Radiant Dawn, so my memory of it might be exaggerated in my head. But I remember Micaiah occasionally having great bits of snark, mostly in the early parts of the game. The line everyone remembers is when she sarcastically describes her friend Sothe’s hero-worship of Ike. “Right. Lord Ike, “hero” of the Crimean Liberation, leader of the Greil Mercenaries, and father of Sothe’s children…”

​@@whitewolf3051 She had some sass. Unfortunately because Ike hogged most of the spotlight (which he really didn't need, since his story was already over in Path Of Radiance, and so both Micaiah and Elincia lost their potential as main characters on the worst Mary-Sue this series has ever known because RD Ike is somehow even more flawless than PoR Ike) we didn't see much of it.

@@CuteHimbo I'm not sure what you are talking about when you mean 'his story was already over'. (SPOILER) From the second the Black Knight used the warp powder, to many other stuff, it was obvious that Ike's story was a two-parter. Heck, the Fire Emblem(the Medallion) in the Fire Emblem game is not even truly used in Path of Radiance!! The Black Knight revealed very little before his fake death, and Ashnard only had a loose connection to Ike. Heck, one of the only times the fire emblem is used in Path of Radiance, not for its intended purpose, is to power up Ashnard in Hard Mode, leaving it to Ike to put him down symbolically, since the emblem has nothing to do with Elincia. If anything, Elincia's story arc was wrapped up by the end of Path of Radiance, as she went from a princess who can't even fight like most of the fire emblem heroes, to a warrior ready to fight for her kingdom, even if she wasn't physically capable of killing Ashnard himself. And Micaiah was........well, she, Sothe and the Dawn Brigade were mostly hopeless. Micaiah was sassy but not often in a good way. A version of her that was ready to be the sole main protagonist simply didn't exist, and Ike had a lot more room to grow in terms of wisdom and heroism since he was no prince or divine child or chosen one. He still hadn't surpassed his father at his prime, and he still hadn't finished his mother's legacy regarding the emblem. Despite being a mercenary kid who inherited none of his mother's bloodline ability, his willing interference put him in a position of great respect and influence for other rulers on how he thinks the division in the world is pure nonsense. When the sequel came out, Ike was more then willing to step up further stop the villains who succeeded where Ashnard failed, and he often gave them a piece of his mind which kept the story flowing. Micaiah was an awkward character, not only is she the least recognized as a fire emblem lord, but especially since the story could of easily unfolded with Mist taking on Micaiah's role as the Yune priestess with some small rewrites. If anything, it was natural story telling that the Lord born the least special became the strongest hero of the fire emblem franchise.

@@9751matt I don't have the courage to read all of this, ngl. But they could have, like... At least given him may it be just the shadow of character growth in RD? Elincia in her very limited time as the Lord of the game showed much more growth and development than Ike did in his way too big screentime, and most of her potential still went to waste despite this fact. That's what I mean with his story already being over in PoR. He had already completed his character arc, and it shows in RD where he's the exact same person from beginning to end, he literally doesn't change an iota, which is awful for a main character. The Nohrian royals of all people showed more growth in Conquest than Ike in Radiant Dawn. And while I love these four lovable weirdos, they aren't known for having amazing character arcs, if at all, and in fact barely grow as characters (well, at least in their own route ; in Birthright they have some pretty outstanding character moments, the girls especially, for very different reasons). Ike would have been much better and more bearable as a secondary character imo. For example, to better connect with his ending, they could have made him be a mentor training Mist to take over the Greil Mercenaries, like that Ike leaves screentime to characters who need it more, and unlike him, Mist actually still has plenty of potential when it comes to character growth if she were to be a main character. If I must be honest, RD made me hate Ike. In that game he's the definition of a Mary-Sue, and it's especially painful when it costs Micaiah and especially Elincia to lose a good chunk of their potential as Lords, and when there were much more interesting options for a main character in the Greil Mercenaries right next to him. And it's no coincidence that RD's story goes downhill the moment Ike shows up. Part 1 and 2 were incredible, but then we got Mary Sue Ike hogging the spotlight with his non-existent character arc, growth and flaws... And he goes as far as to be praised by a goddess. A FREAKING GODDESS. Ugh.

Dimitri was a real politician tho

@@anonyme4881 who happened to lose his taste buds…meanwhile Edelgard would be disturbed as the others & Claude would use it in his Schemes.

Camilla is kind of a weirdo too so it tracks lol.

My first thought was after finding out she wants fairy tale life was that it is kinda similar to some anime fans that would want to live in an anime world or similar and that’s also one of my reasons that she is my best girl in engage and in fire emblem as a whole currently

I just saw her as better written sumia due to Chloe's gimmick actually working

I was trying to decide on who should get the pact ring, Chloe, Citrinne, Lapis, or Merrin. This video helped me, it’s Chloe.

​@@whitewolf3051 Nonono, give it to Alfred! His solo ending is... Depressing...

@@CuteHimbo I agree please give it to him

He lost his sense of taste.

Dont worry if youre strange Chloé will eat you.

They searched non standard food that seems horrible to eat. Pig blood for exemple is just Pudding which is a classical european food. Pig tripe is also a very famous french delicacies called Andouille. As french myself, trust me if one day you find a top quality Andouille you will have one hell of a good meal. (If you dont mind the smell)

I think fish eyes are enough of a texture thing to be plenty unpleasant

TBF her food isn't bad, just food from other cultures, based on ones IRL. I don't think the illy's would mind at least.

Suddenly bear meat seems like a gourmet dish

Pig blood, tripe and fish gut are actually real delicacy foods. Really, the only thing that I'd refuse to eat are the fish eyes, but just because I can't really picture the texture.

@@crocsy1439 Heck, fermented, salted fish is eaten in some European countries.

@@crocsy1439 Try it out if you ever are willing someday. It's really rich, has like a layer of viscous juice(?) with a solid core in the middle. I dont eat the core cause it feels like chomping down on a lego head

​@@crocsy1439Tuna eyes are actually a delicacy and it's filled with good fatty acids that helps the brain.

​@@crocsy1439fish eyes are a delicacy with the superstition of supposedly making you smarter. East Asia is wack sometimes. It's just fat with a round bone in the middle though, that's it.

Wait, who’s being voiced by Deliah Ketchum?

​​@@whitewolf3051Veronica Taylor, who currently voices Micaiah, starred as her voice until around the middle of Advanced Generation

@@f1reburn1ng Oh! Okay...then I can sort of agree with the original poster of this thread. Ash's mom being a priestess/mage is a bit weird, but that's voice acting.

He would probably don’t like the texture

Maybe that is indeed what happened... Anyways, R.I.P. ALFRED.

DANG!

😮

Because she’s the best girl in Engage. Other than that, no idea really.

By going to the streets apparently.

@@CuteHimbo what street are selling these creations im scared

It's not food. She just thinks it's food. Their actually ingredients to make a witch's brew! She just using it for... something else... 🤢

Well, considering that some restaurants here in the U.S. sell liver and tongue as food... While I hadn’t had those, *if* she were real, I’ll have whatever she’s eating.

Oh yes they would, and they both would trade recipes with each other as well. Chloe might even give Tai’s mom even more outlandish food ideas, including bugs.

Would it be wrong to say that I would date Chloe *if* she were real?

@@whitewolf3051I mean, she looks fine, but you gotta be ok with the stuff she eats.

@@Lucifer-hq5pe For her, why wouldn't anyone?

@@whitewolf3051 I would not be able to eat that, ever. I'd take Ivy instead.

@@Lucifer-hq5pe To each their own then. In Engage, my choices are Chloe, Citrinne, Lapis, and Merinn.

Even bugs apparently.

I could go for anything she’s having.

Nothing wrong with that from where I see things.

@@whitewolf3051 There isn't, I just find it funny since they're both character archetypes that appeal to a specific demographic

@@kalejuice5701 Eh...what archetype is that? Haven't played Fates long enough, returned my copy of Birthright without finishing the game.

Marth: Make space, guys

Probably Frederick’s bear

Probably Henry...he's morbid enough.

@@rylade475 oooh you're right, I forgot about Frederick 🤣

She was no barbarian or a primitive though. Just because she lived in the wilds doesn’t mean she and her people weren’t civilized in their own way. Also, *if* she were real, she would take offense to that, she takes pride in her heritage after all.

Sacaens are to our world Mongolian equivalent. They usually eat horse, mutton, cattle, or any plain native deer. They rarely eat lizard since they are nomadic tribe following herd of such animal. So it make sense for Lyn to freak out on szechuan fried skewered gecko

Me: note to self, do hand Lyn’s ring to Chloe.

As long it’s *not* people blood.

He may not be able taste food, but seeing its appearance may have been enough turn him off.
