mushrooms are amazing and Rachel is right ; very healthy, but generally not used in mexican cuisine.(Rachel worries me though. i think she has not looked well in a while now. It is hard to see her give a valiant effort to be natural on screen- All the best in the new year to you.)
i just noticed how well Jun's English has come along, this whole vid feels like being a fly on the wall and watching a casual conversation. Being a long time sub of the channel and someone who is studying foreign languages it's so nice to see someone progress with pronunciation so well. just thought it was really wholesome :)
Rachel :D bake your mushrooms on low for about 10 mins to get the water out, then add your other ingredients to the pan. It makes the texture so much better (meatier and not so gag inducingly rubbery). - a fellow ex-mushroom hater who now eats a lot of mushrooms
Thank you so much for the tip!! We bought some brown mushrooms since the appearance doesn’t bother me too much and we’re going to try preparing them in larger chunks/whole, so tips on changing the texture and whatnot are really helpful! -Rachel
If you don't want to use the oven, you can also put the mushrooms in a salad bowl and sprinkle them with a bit of salt. The salt draws the water out, so after 15-20 minutes you can just pour it out. It also removes the bitterness from green vegetables!
@@julielal Ah I meant bake in a pan! Not in the oven >_< I always forget that in English baking implies putting it in the oven. So I guess I meant to say "fry them in a pan on low".
I had/have ARFID diagnosed, and this channel has actually really helped me. It gets me a little hungry and more open to foods because I can’t smell see or feel them in person- just a video, so when things end up looking so good it helps me.. even when I just end up picking at things and getting a little nauseous. It’s helped a lot, so thanks Jun and Rachel.
I struggled with ARFID my entire life and it really damaged my health growing up. I’m happy to hear someone talk about it! It gives me hope that I can continue to recover from an eating disorder no one ever really brings up!
@@IsleNaK yeah i have a hard time eating certain textures. We had dessert in school that was some whipped berry thing and it was so whipped it felt like foamy vomit it was so gross.

"Real" Mexican food comes in a number of regional types, just like most any other national food. What most people in America are familiar with is food from the northwest of Mexico, since that is what you get at the chain food stores. Most of that is rice, beans, onions, cheap cuts of beef either ground or pounded thin, chicken, cilantro, tomatoes, and various forms of chili. Corn and flour are common in the form of tortillas. In coastal Mexico (and there is a lot of that) all kinds of fish and shellfish show up, usually with a mildly acidic sauce made with limes or the like. Mushrooms are wonderful, but just offhand I can't think of any Mexican dishes that use them, at least in a recognizable form.
Americans are used to Tex Mex which has very little association with authentic Mexican food. While its believed to be inspired by Mexican food, it’s derived from Spanish influences after they drive off natives from what is now Texas and the resources they brought to Texas.
Yes but not really. The "mexican" food americans are familiar with is tex-mex, which is very different from the mexican food that is eaten in the northern regions of mexico. It's just a variation they made with the ingredients they liked (yellow cheese, kidney beans, fajita, rice, sour cream and avocados), and since most of those ingredients are quickly assosiated with mexican cuisine (whether it's as a whole or individually), it definitely isn't close to mexican food, not even in the border.
@@killaburribo I mean, what kind if Mexican food are you thinking of? Exclusively indigenous foods? Most Mexicans are mixed so that comment is a bit confusing.
I can't help but smile throughout the whole 17 minutes of this video. This and every video of yours. I honestly don't know any other channel that just makes me purely happy.
I'm EXTREMELY picky, and watching Jun cook made me want to try new things, especially Japanese food. I've recently tried simple things like miso, and I taught myself to get used to the texture of rice. Slowly but surely, I'm trying to expand my palate lol
Yeah, me too. But I’m also working my way up! Tried Pho for the first time yesterday and it was delicious. If you have the chance, stop by the Flying Monk in Savannah, Georgia. Great stuff. :)
Insignificant_Anon mee too, especially since i cant really eat tomatoes and paprika its so hard to eat asian stuff but the things i do eat i love so much
It makes me feel weird that many people don't even eat rice. I cannot live without rice in my life, and I grew up with it anyway. You should try fried rice too. Good stuff!
@@squeeler1598 is it the flavour of tomatoes you don't like or the texture? Because I didn't like tomatoes for the texture, and I still don't like raw tomatoes, but I started grilling them and ended up really liking it.
@@TaterTots620 yes absolute. In a earlier video they said that if it is a video with only June you will basically just get Jun's kitchen. a video where in he cooks but barely speaks. But he wanted to keep this channel a more lighthearted version of that. But for that he needs someone to make him more talkative and that is where Rachel does here part in the video.

Thank you so much for taking the time to add in the subtitles. Often people don’t realize how helpful they are to certain audiences. Also, you 2 are precious!
recently i've come to the conclusion i probably have arfid as well, and hearing rachel talk about it in a few videos (ive been jumping around to whatever comes up in my related, lol) has been really comforting. it's nice to hear someone talk so plainly about the same struggles ive gone through

I know this video is from 3 years ago, but thank you so much for talking about ARFID! I actually gasped with delight when I heard it mentioned, I never expected a comfort youtuber couple of mine to know about something that impacts my life daily. I think it's really funny that you mention no one with ARFID would watch Juns channel, because I do so I can get myself to eat! Along with ARFID I have other disorders that make it really hard for me to handle eating even my comfort foods- especially when I wake up, and while I don't think I'd eat a lot of the food made on the channel, watching it being made still makes me hungry enough to eat! I have Jun to thank for a lot of times when I wasn't woozy during the day because I wasn't able to choke my food down. Anyways- thank you for mentioning ARFID, I wish it was talked about more!
You know Rachel, I *might* actually have ARFID. I had never heard of it before, and now I'm gonna look into it, so thanks for that, it could actually really help me in the long run.
as a Mexican I was hesitant to watch it but it's only a couple making dinner not a recipe video or something like that so Poki waiting for you to turn your backs lol XDD
I always find it interesting to know what people consider mexican food, whether that’s taco seasoning packets or burritos or los angeles street tacos or whatever lol
as a mum of 3 = I 've always had a rule in my house when it comes to food. They MUST try a food - if they genuinely don't like it then fair enough.. but through this method they have discovered a lot of foods that they wouldn't have had if I hadn't made this rule.
My mother would make use eat so many spoonfulls, usually threeish. It was an achievable goal if we genuinely didn't like it, and enough volume to get past the deliberately not liking it thing.
My parents and a boarding school use to force me to eat boiled vegetables, which use to make me border on being sick. For almost 20 years I did'nt touch vegetables untill I started to pan fry some in ghee or coconut oil for keto.
This helped me with my food issue I think I have been scared to try new things a lot until I met my partner and still am but it’s helped me since thankyou heaps
Rachel!! You're not alone! There are a whole bunch of things I can't eat because of texture and taste, but luckily I've been keeping track of all my mom's recipes so that I can make food that I like to eat. I rarely like to try new things just because it freaks me out that the possibility that I might not like the food is so high. It's so bad that I have the problem that I can't even eat food at other friends' houses unless I've seen how the food has been made. So I get it! I just didn't know that my brain not letting me like foods because of texture and taste was actually because of something psychological, now I know why!
Really enjoyed the discussion about ergothioneine. i love chemistry and biology and biochem. mushrooms are awesome, i love king oysters. and enoki and shiitake. i'm veg so i eat tons of mushrooms. they're so delicious and some of them really have a seafood flavor and texture, or in the case of shiitake, are just so savory wnd delicious cuse of the glutamate amino acid in them, that activates the umami taste buds. I don't really care about my health cuse i don't wanna be alive, but i do enjoy tasty foods, and mushrooms are delicious
Please get some help if you're feeling that way about life. Look into your country's/state's/insurance's options for therapy. You might be surprised what is covered! I've been close to suicide myself, but you CAN get better, feel better, and grow to enjoy life. Help exists, you just have to look for it.
Yeah mushrooms are super interesting and learning about it in biology made me love it more. Gotta go buy more different mushrooms in the future. And hey, you seem like a kicking person to talk to. Hope you get to learn about yourself more, like I learned about mushrooms in biology, you might learn to love yourself more. Hope this doesn't offend you in any way. Wishing you the best Danielle.
I totally feel you! I was like "wait maybe I should try eating mushrooms too then" (cause I damn despise them too, mostly the texture it makes me gag as well) But then I realized yeah nah I don't wanna live that long anyway lmao whatever
I’m Japanese and live in America (mostly) , I absolutely love Mexican food, if you do it right. I’m living in Japan now and I miss eating a torta de chorizo... Food is the gift of life! Art is life! 🌸
I remember when I was really young, my mom cooked a sunny side up egg for breakfast because we had grandparents visiting who preferred a traditional Western breakfast and I was very excited to eat the egg until I was traumatized by how cold the yolk was. My mom was a vegetarian and we rarely had sunny side up eggs so that might’ve affected the resulting egg. After that happened, I just hated egg yolk in any form. I could tolerate boiled eggs only if I didn’t have to eat the yolk (which in general my mom overcooked anyways) and I preferred scrambled eggs. It wasn’t until high school when my mom bought organic brown eggs from Costco and coaxed me to eat them by breaking the egg yolk while frying them that I began to like it. Organic eggs have a different taste (at least to me) so it definitely helped while I ate it with brown rice. Even if my mom wouldn’t cook the broken yolk all the way, it was palatable. And now, I can eat regular non-organic eggs too! Haha It was quite the journey but I got there~ (On the other hand, eating garlic, cooked or raw, makes me gag and I don’t think that’ll ever change.😅)
Rachel's right! I hated green, red and yellow peppers but recently I started chopping them in cubes and cooking them. Now I try to add them to my meals whenever I can.
I've been a subscriber for many years. Not only do I have food texture issues (mushrooms are a big problem there), I don't even enjoy cooking. At all. However, I enjoy watching people who enjoy cooking doing what they love. First, they often make it look effortless, which inspires me to try to better my technique. I'm also inspired by the creativity I see, which motivates me to try cooking foods with which I'm unfamiliar. Even though I don't like to cook, I have to for my family so improving upon & expanding our menu is important to me. I constantly struggle with my dislike of most vegetables. They taste either musty, bitter/grassy, or both. I've been told to smother them with cheese, but I don't really like cheese, either. Texture comes into play with veggies a lot, as well. Roasting veggies makes them the most palatable for me, but I still wouldn't claim they're delicious. All of that being said, I continue to test my palate even when I've disliked certain foods for decades. If the opportunity arises, I'll try them again...& in the way of Andrew Zimmern from Bizarre Foods: Take at least two bites! You never know when your tastes will change or if something has been prepared in a way that makes it enjoyable.
I didn’t realize that someone else had the same eating issues I did when it came to texture and that kind of thing with food. I always thought I was crazy for feeling that way, now that I m ow it’s an actual condition people can have I finally feel like there might be a solution for me.☺️
Hey Jun people from japan in the comment section are asking for Japanese captions. My parents love your content but sometimes it’s hard for them to understand the English. Sorry for this inconvenience but can you add other language captions?
Doesn't their computer or TV have closed captioning? It's quite distracting to me to have a bunch of the visual content obstructed by huge bands of paragraphs running across the bottom of the screen. This is the point where almost everything he is doing to show you how to prepare something would be covered up if it had captioning
Late answer, but I don't think they add the subtitles themselves? I think its fans or somebody that offers to do it for them? Idk I think thats the way their other channels get subtitles so I assume its the same for this one too
Oh my gosh! I never knew what caused me to be so picky with foods and textures until now! I have a mild form of Autism and I never knew there was a disorder for my food likes or dislikes. Thank you Rachel! I feel so much better about myself.
Jun's energy during this video is 100% hunger/food driven. It comes to a head in the outro. "Goodbye thanks for watching, no, I'm eating it now when it's warm, goodbye."
I didn’t know what to expect when I read “Mexican-ish beef bowl”, but it was interesting to see how other ppl cook something from my culture in different ways. I know that isn’t authentic but it was nice to see how you take on it. Not going to lie my corazon died a little when I saw that finish product xD
its like how taco bell is called "Mexican food" no self respecting Mexican would call that MX food. Please don't do this to my beautiful food, i have real recipes if you need one.
Rachel’s ARFID summary made me realize what I’ve been doing for so long. Ever since I was about 6 I’ve had an avoidance of soft fruits and vegetables (bananas, pumpkins, spinach) because of the texture. Recently I’ve been having more smoothies because it gets rid of the texture, and I started eating ground spinach in beef recipes. Thank you for the advice Rachel I’m going to try it and I’m sure it’s going to be super helpful because I’ve already been kind of doing it recently without realizing!
I have ARFID likely, and I have autism and sensory processing issues. I'm extremely picky and new foods are really difficult. It's very cool to see someone speak up about this on a channel I love! A lot of these foods intimidate me but it makes me really happy every single time Rachel has mentioned being picky and trying new things, lol. You just have to open yourself up!
Actually, I have an eating disorder and a sensory problem. I often fail to eat more than once a day, and before I met my husband I didn’t eat much for healthy things at all. We’ve gone completely vegetarian, and almost zero waste shopping! Since we’ve met I’ve learned a lot from him, he loves to cook and that’s part of the reason why I enjoy watching Jun’s videos. Don’t get me wrong, I’m subscribed to all of your channels but. I find your conversations and cooking noises really soothing. It reminds me of my husband and I :) thank you for the info on the amino acids by the way, my family has a history of cognitive memory disorders as well and I recently introduced super finely chopped mushrooms into my pastas and vegetarian/vegan meats when sautéing.
What I have learnt from this - eating lots of mushrooms will help you leesen the chances of dementia when you're older. Good thing I love mushrooms. Also, in my country, they do sell a lot of the king oysters and the small stringy type ones.
Rachel! This is big news for me. I definitely do not have ARFID, but my partner does! I had never heard about this, but reading it, it's spot on for them. Thank you! Maybe some day she will be able to branch out, even a little bit, or be able to eat something new without getting sick.
The closest to authentic Mexican food, in America, is most likely found in California, between LA and the border. There's a handful of restaurants that are good, but most of the best are taco trucks.

@@RoopeRontu1999 なんでやねん(nandeyanen) = its basically "omg you gotta be kidding me!" in Kansai Dialect (used by Japanese resided in Osaka)
Also in short, a popular phrase in anime🤣
@@winterpang641 Well, I don't watch anime, but thanks for the translation.
google tells me: ''why''
I know this video is from 3 years ago, but thank you so much for talking about ARFID! I actually gasped with delight when I heard it mentioned, I never expected a comfort youtuber couple of mine to know about something that impacts my life daily.
I think it's really funny that you mention no one with ARFID would watch Juns channel, because I do so I can get myself to eat! Along with ARFID I have other disorders that make it really hard for me to handle eating even my comfort foods- especially when I wake up, and while I don't think I'd eat a lot of the food made on the channel, watching it being made still makes me hungry enough to eat! I have Jun to thank for a lot of times when I wasn't woozy during the day because I wasn't able to choke my food down.
Anyways- thank you for mentioning ARFID, I wish it was talked about more!
She adds "a little bit of spice" and puts what feels like half the bottle of habanero powder in this bowl :D
it's always good to see you two together like that, keep the good work
You know Rachel, I *might* actually have ARFID. I had never heard of it before, and now I'm gonna look into it, so thanks for that, it could actually really help me in the long run.
Marcelo Cabral Lima Same with me!
Sometimes I feel like Haku is an observer and Poki is a Stalker 🤣🤣🤣😺
You two are probably the one the most beautiful couples I’ve ever seen 💛
Ahaha Jun just moving around cooking while Rachel talks remind me of when I keep busy while listening to my gf talk
as a Mexican I was hesitant to watch it but it's only a couple making dinner not a recipe video or something like that so
Poki waiting for you to turn your backs lol XDD
I feel you, it was kinda tough to look at 🤣
Japanese mexican food game is so weak. Cumin isnt a widely used spice at all 😥
The only japanese-mexican food I've had is my mom's taco rice which is a Okinawan dish
I always find it interesting to know what people consider mexican food, whether that’s taco seasoning packets or burritos or los angeles street tacos or whatever lol
As a Mexican too... donde está la comida Mexicana ? 🤣
@@annie-tu1oy I don't, really
It’s been years and you popped up in my recommendations. Going through your videos. Love how much your on camera confidence has blossomed.
as a mum of 3 = I 've always had a rule in my house when it comes to food.
They MUST try a food - if they genuinely don't like it then fair enough.. but through this method they have discovered a lot of foods that they wouldn't have had if I hadn't made this rule.
My mum did that and it was honestly the best thing she could have done. So many foods that I'm fond of now than when I was younger because of that.
My mother would make use eat so many spoonfulls, usually threeish. It was an achievable goal if we genuinely didn't like it, and enough volume to get past the deliberately not liking it thing.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that only eats half my meal and takes the rest home! I do that whenever I go out because the servings are so big here!
Sooo it's mexican night tonight, another channel I watched made Pozole. It's a soup. Honestly I would love to cook for you guys some mexican food.
I had to look it up but pozole looks great!! I’d love to try it 💕
-Rachel
Jenna and Julian right?
Julien's channel?
Julieennnuh
Yes, Julien solomitas channel. Idk if it was relevant to put which channel it was. 🤓
I just love how good of a listener Jun is. ❤️
My parents and a boarding school use to force me to eat boiled vegetables, which use to make me border on being sick. For almost 20 years I did'nt touch vegetables untill I started to pan fry some in ghee or coconut oil for keto.
Baked veges (cauliflower, broccoli) are good too. My family was the same and always overboiled / burnt all the foods.
Same, only I bake or roast them w/ just a little avocado or grapeseed oils & the reason wasn't keto, just generally trying to be healthier.
Try roasting or steaming them!
It's always comforting watching Jun cutting the ingredients and putting all the things in place.... it soothes my OCD
This helped me with my food issue I think I have been scared to try new things a lot until I met my partner and still am but it’s helped me since thankyou heaps
Rachel!! You're not alone! There are a whole bunch of things I can't eat because of texture and taste, but luckily I've been keeping track of all my mom's recipes so that I can make food that I like to eat. I rarely like to try new things just because it freaks me out that the possibility that I might not like the food is so high. It's so bad that I have the problem that I can't even eat food at other friends' houses unless I've seen how the food has been made. So I get it! I just didn't know that my brain not letting me like foods because of texture and taste was actually because of something psychological, now I know why!
Thank you for putting the "ish" in there lmao 😂 it's really appreciated by all us Mexican peoples
I like how this is filmed in a casual, natural, and fun setting. Really comfortable to watch.
Really enjoyed the discussion about ergothioneine. i love chemistry and biology and biochem. mushrooms are awesome, i love king oysters. and enoki and shiitake. i'm veg so i eat tons of mushrooms. they're so delicious and some of them really have a seafood flavor and texture, or in the case of shiitake, are just so savory wnd delicious cuse of the glutamate amino acid in them, that activates the umami taste buds. I don't really care about my health cuse i don't wanna be alive, but i do enjoy tasty foods, and mushrooms are delicious
Please get some help if you're feeling that way about life. Look into your country's/state's/insurance's options for therapy. You might be surprised what is covered! I've been close to suicide myself, but you CAN get better, feel better, and grow to enjoy life. Help exists, you just have to look for it.
i dont know if this was gen z humour or real,, enjoy your mushrooms anyway
Yeah mushrooms are super interesting and learning about it in biology made me love it more. Gotta go buy more different mushrooms in the future. And hey, you seem like a kicking person to talk to. Hope you get to learn about yourself more, like I learned about mushrooms in biology, you might learn to love yourself more. Hope this doesn't offend you in any way. Wishing you the best Danielle.
I totally feel you! I was like "wait maybe I should try eating mushrooms too then" (cause I damn despise them too, mostly the texture it makes me gag as well)
But then I realized yeah nah I don't wanna live that long anyway lmao whatever
This comment was so relatable
奥さんが本当に楽しそうによく喋る！そしてそれを優しく聞いてるジュンさん、良い夫婦だなぁと思います！英語がわからないので、途中までキノコの話をしてるんだなぁ（内容はわからない）と微笑ましく見てました☺️
Such a chill content, and I love it :D
really like if Jun saying 'Thank you' to Rachel because she helped him 😀 from something small he can respect others
Looks delicious. I love mushrooms of all types. I finally developed a taste for Sauerkraut.
I’m Japanese and live in America (mostly) , I absolutely love Mexican food, if you do it right. I’m living in Japan now and I miss eating a torta de chorizo... Food is the gift of life! Art is life! 🌸
This is so cute, it reminds me of cooking with my boyfriend - I just follow around behind him like baby yoda with a spatula 🥺
I like the clear splashback idea in your kitchen!
Always look forward to these.
Jun always so calm and easy and Rachel always so energetic and joyful. Always love watching them together🥰🥰
I remember when I was really young, my mom cooked a sunny side up egg for breakfast because we had grandparents visiting who preferred a traditional Western breakfast and I was very excited to eat the egg until I was traumatized by how cold the yolk was. My mom was a vegetarian and we rarely had sunny side up eggs so that might’ve affected the resulting egg.
After that happened, I just hated egg yolk in any form. I could tolerate boiled eggs only if I didn’t have to eat the yolk (which in general my mom overcooked anyways) and I preferred scrambled eggs.
It wasn’t until high school when my mom bought organic brown eggs from Costco and coaxed me to eat them by breaking the egg yolk while frying them that I began to like it. Organic eggs have a different taste (at least to me) so it definitely helped while I ate it with brown rice. Even if my mom wouldn’t cook the broken yolk all the way, it was palatable.
And now, I can eat regular non-organic eggs too! Haha It was quite the journey but I got there~
(On the other hand, eating garlic, cooked or raw, makes me gag and I don’t think that’ll ever change.😅)
Rachel's right! I hated green, red and yellow peppers but recently I started chopping them in cubes and cooking them. Now I try to add them to my meals whenever I can.
I have to look twice before I realize that person is Jun. He looks so different now.
I've been a subscriber for many years. Not only do I have food texture issues (mushrooms are a big problem there), I don't even enjoy cooking. At all. However, I enjoy watching people who enjoy cooking doing what they love. First, they often make it look effortless, which inspires me to try to better my technique. I'm also inspired by the creativity I see, which motivates me to try cooking foods with which I'm unfamiliar. Even though I don't like to cook, I have to for my family so improving upon & expanding our menu is important to me.
I constantly struggle with my dislike of most vegetables. They taste either musty, bitter/grassy, or both. I've been told to smother them with cheese, but I don't really like cheese, either. Texture comes into play with veggies a lot, as well. Roasting veggies makes them the most palatable for me, but I still wouldn't claim they're delicious.
All of that being said, I continue to test my palate even when I've disliked certain foods for decades. If the opportunity arises, I'll try them again...& in the way of Andrew Zimmern from Bizarre Foods: Take at least two bites! You never know when your tastes will change or if something has been prepared in a way that makes it enjoyable.
I didn’t realize that someone else had the same eating issues I did when it came to texture and that kind of thing with food. I always thought I was crazy for feeling that way, now that I m ow it’s an actual condition people can have I finally feel like there might be a solution for me.☺️
おふたりのラフな空気感に憧れます〜！ハクちゃんも安定の可愛さ……好きです……最近は英語字幕を入れながら見ているので、リスニングが苦手でも何となくの雰囲気で話していることが分かります！見ていて楽しいです🤗🤗
Hey Jun people from japan in the comment section are asking for Japanese captions. My parents love your content but sometimes it’s hard for them to understand the English. Sorry for this inconvenience but can you add other language captions?
Doesn't their computer or TV have closed captioning? It's quite distracting to me to have a bunch of the visual content obstructed by huge bands of paragraphs running across the bottom of the screen. This is the point where almost everything he is doing to show you how to prepare something would be covered up if it had captioning
Late answer, but I don't think they add the subtitles themselves? I think its fans or somebody that offers to do it for them? Idk I think thats the way their other channels get subtitles so I assume its the same for this one too
I have ARFID and I love to watch your cooking videos to try to want to broaden my diet horizons lol. Thank you for your kindness.
Haku is amazing! He sniffs food, but doesn't take it and of course, he is really cute 😂
Im so glad rachel touched on her aversion to food, makes me feel a little bit better
This is the most comforting way to out I may have an eating disorder.
Oh my gosh! I never knew what caused me to be so picky with foods and textures until now! I have a mild form of Autism and I never knew there was a disorder for my food likes or dislikes. Thank you Rachel! I feel so much better about myself.
When I lived in Japan, Hokto Mushroom company had really cute and catchy mushroom songs with cartoons playing in the produce section on repeat
Jun's energy during this video is 100% hunger/food driven. It comes to a head in the outro. "Goodbye thanks for watching, no, I'm eating it now when it's warm, goodbye."
Rachel's hair looks amazing
I didn’t know what to expect when I read “Mexican-ish beef bowl”, but it was interesting to see how other ppl cook something from my culture in different ways. I know that isn’t authentic but it was nice to see how you take on it.
Not going to lie my corazon died a little when I saw that finish product xD
its like how taco bell is called "Mexican food" no self respecting Mexican would call that MX food. Please don't do this to my beautiful food, i have real recipes if you need one.
Rachel’s ARFID summary made me realize what I’ve been doing for so long. Ever since I was about 6 I’ve had an avoidance of soft fruits and vegetables (bananas, pumpkins, spinach) because of the texture. Recently I’ve been having more smoothies because it gets rid of the texture, and I started eating ground spinach in beef recipes. Thank you for the advice Rachel I’m going to try it and I’m sure it’s going to be super helpful because I’ve already been kind of doing it recently without realizing!
I'm a redhead and I have ARFID too!! I found out it was a thing like 2 years ago, thought I was a freak my whole life. 😅
I have ARFID likely, and I have autism and sensory processing issues. I'm extremely picky and new foods are really difficult. It's very cool to see someone speak up about this on a channel I love! A lot of these foods intimidate me but it makes me really happy every single time Rachel has mentioned being picky and trying new things, lol. You just have to open yourself up!
the fact that jun might hit his head while cooking makes me anxious 😹
I love having their videos on in the background ❤️ makes me feel like I’m in a room with my friends ❤️
Did your cats start sitting on the extractor on their own or did you encourage it?
Their cats love to sitt above them and around them and watch as they make food. So he probably jumped up there himself😊
That giggle by Jun when he pulled back the beef from Poki (7:21) was hilarious. I cant stop laughing
Hey Jun, I chop up mushrooms tiny too, makes meatier spaghetti sauce. Love the kitchen.
Oh what mushrooms do you use?
Jun, I love the wooden chopping board!!! Nice and sturdy. I so need this which makes chopping so much easier. Love watching your cooking channel. 💞💞💞💞
Créanme que si alguna vez vienen a México se sorprenderán de lo diferente y deliciosa que es la comida
I really like these videos of you two cooking together. It makes me feel like I'm over at a friend's house for dinner.
I love Rachel’s wavy hair! It suits her well and looks extra vibrant!!
Actually, I have an eating disorder and a sensory problem. I often fail to eat more than once a day, and before I met my husband I didn’t eat much for healthy things at all. We’ve gone completely vegetarian, and almost zero waste shopping! Since we’ve met I’ve learned a lot from him, he loves to cook and that’s part of the reason why I enjoy watching Jun’s videos. Don’t get me wrong, I’m subscribed to all of your channels but. I find your conversations and cooking noises really soothing. It reminds me of my husband and I :) thank you for the info on the amino acids by the way, my family has a history of cognitive memory disorders as well and I recently introduced super finely chopped mushrooms into my pastas and vegetarian/vegan meats when sautéing.
What I have learnt from this - eating lots of mushrooms will help you leesen the chances of dementia when you're older. Good thing I love mushrooms. Also, in my country, they do sell a lot of the king oysters and the small stringy type ones.
Rachel! This is big news for me. I definitely do not have ARFID, but my partner does! I had never heard about this, but reading it, it's spot on for them. Thank you! Maybe some day she will be able to branch out, even a little bit, or be able to eat something new without getting sick.
The closest to authentic Mexican food, in America, is most likely found in California, between LA and the border. There's a handful of restaurants that are good, but most of the best are taco trucks.
Sooo Texas doesn't exist?
As far as density, yes, but of course there are immigrants and first gen americans all over and some of them have restaurants

Turn captions on lol! 12:08
