Stay tuned for Monday's video where I used gac fruit pulp to make a Vietnamese dish called xoi gac or red sticky rice.
yay Im so happy to see a viet food video! I hope you thought the xoi was tasty.
The inside just like a matured bitter melon.
:o
ooooh i love red sticky rice :D always a treat my grandma would make for any special occasion! Viet New Years, Christmas, Birthdays, Graduations ahaha!
It looked like a big weird strawberry, and when you cut it open.. Little strawberries inside!! Lol
GAC Fruit: $55

Except it's in my head now. Seriously, I embarrassed myself recently at my favorite Mexican grocery store when I saw the huge jackfruit for sale. Another lady was laughing at it, and I started singing the "Fruity fruity FRUIT!" song before I could stop myself. Then there was like 4-5 of us standing around, laughing at fruit! Yeah, those folks are probably still talking about this weird lady. I wanted to explain dear Emmy to them, but I felt silly enough!
Her reactions are truly priceless😂
That is one expensive fruit. But a beauty. Looks like strawberries are stuffed inside. 🍊😳😊👍
I thought the same thing!
Or bloody organs. Little hearts.
It looks like a giant strawberry filled with regular strawberries.
@@AnnaReed42 the inside also reminds me a bit of a pomegranate with the segments and the way it looks. Sort of strawberries and a pomegranate combined.
I thought the same thing looks like glazed strawberries
We don't eat gac by itself, we make a dish called xoi gac, which is basically sticky rice wih gac as the main ingredient. I never actually had gac by itself, but xoi gac is sweet and has a coconut taste because they do add sugar and coconut juice while cooking the rice.
Ann Than I’m curious if it turns the rice red?
emmy said she made it and the video will be out monday!
Yep, look for my recipe video for xoi gac on Monday.
Ann Than I wondered if that was the case.
This right here is why I read the comments! Lol. Thanks for the info! ❤️
In VietNam, we use gac fruit as natural food coloring. Because of it's mild taste, you can use it in any recipe to put a vibrant red color to your dishes.
Oh, u can do the same with beetroot!
Beetroot has its own flavor that some can find unpleasant though.
Thar intresting
Plus beetroot pigmentation is not heat stable while gac's is
Wow, $55 dollars to try a new fruit! That's determination. Glad it wasn't gross😁
Right! Lol
She'll make way more than 55 on this vid lol so that helps
@@CelticFairyBox i doubt it ,she dont even have a sponsor
it takes $55 for over 51K people to learn about a new fruit and its taste
@@girlsdrinkfeck remember money doesn't just got on sponsors it comes from views too
If a pomegranate and a pumpkin had a baby
It looks more like a pumpkin & durian lol
And raised by litchi!
Mesmer ASMR and dragon fruit is the weird uncle...
@@cynthiabrogan9215 That tells dad jokes but isn’t a dad
"Just because it's a little bit wrinkly doesn't mean the fruit is bad." Thanks, Emmy. That gave me a boost of self confidence.
That fruit is really pretty inside, I'd like to have a painting of that on my kitchen wall.
I can do it for you.
Juniper's Garden really, $?
Juniper's Garden I'm interested.
I'm thinking like an Andy Warhol painting, but instead of a banana painting, a gac fruit cut down the center with the red and yellowish orange.
@@JunipersGarden sorry, but you draw and paint like a teenage me and you do this for living? damn, i should be selling
here in Vietnam, we use the juice of this fruit to make sticky rice, it's so fragrant and delicious.
Yes, I made xoi guc. Look for the recipe video on Monday.
Ba Nhi - where in Vietnam do you find it?
@@emmymade It's called 'Gấc' actually( but pronounced as 'guc')
I just find you so sweet and interesting to watch. I suffer from extreme clinical depression, and you make me feel a little better.
Oh jeez, that sounds rough. Hope you're doing better now.
💙
Can relate to this comment. Helps cheer me up on my bad days.
Meow 🍤🍤🍤
She's like sunshine in a human is very peaceful
Try sapodilla next!! That definitely won't disappoint in taste! Like straight up brown sugar!
Yummy! I love sapodilla! Are you Trini?
sapodilla tastes like sour puke lmao
@@patmccrutch3927 nope I'm Indian! We call it sapota or chikoo there
@@anushareddy6145 oh how cool is that?! We call in sapodilla in Trinidad but I've heard it called other things up the islands so just figured you may be from here :)
@@autrana lol! No way!
Emmy getting excited over a fruit is the most wholesome moment of my day
Id get excited over trying a new fruit. Fun!
It looks like it’s full of hearts
AntleredPrince Bloody hearts . . .
That was my first opinion! After 2 years at med school though..what else could I see :P
I was thinking it looked a bit like a murder scene =P
Ehhh... O.o can't unsee that now.. thanks..
I was waiting for them to start beating!
I love how descriptive you are when tasting these new things lol you are fabulous!
AGREED
I remember first seeing a jackfruit. I thought it was a durian. They are huge. I remember first seeing dragon fruits, star fruits, and other bizarre looking fruits. I thought they had a trade with alien space farmers.
Lol
Emmy you have the best videos! You are genuinely a nice person and a refreshing escape from all of the negativity on social media.
Greg Rangel Agreed! Really enjoy watching her.
Emmy you need to try Jamaican June plum. Its my favorite thing to eat in the fall-winter season when im in Jamaica
yes june plums are delicious!! they're the best when they're slightly unripe and crunchy with salt and chili powder
June plum/ Pommecythere (as we say in Trinidad) is awesome! So good when slightly unripe and so sweet and juicy when fully ripe :') yum. We use the unripe ones in a "chow" ie: just chop fruit up and season it with salt, black pepper, hot pepper and green seasoning :3 great memories!!
I love how you respect food , even when you don’t like something you don’t disrespect it. Hope everyone is like you Emmy ❤️
emmy’s genuine enthusiasm for food is what makes her the best! she doesn’t seem contrived or fake and i wish she had more subs so people could see that
I luv this series sooo much I honestly learn so much from her. She's so educated and I luv what she does. Keep up all the amazing work!!! ❤❤❤
Hey Emmy! You should try out a balsam apple! You can also find them by searching Momordica balsamina. I used to live in Haiti for a few years and these things grew in our yard. This baby jackfruit reminds me of a giant version of the balsam apple. The balsam apple is a small little spiky looking orange fruit, when you open it, it just has a bunch of little seeds which are coated with a soft and mushy membrane which is colored bright red. It's almost exactly like the baby jack fruit, just much smaller! If you've ever had a balsam apple before, or if you'd be willing to try one out in a new video, I'd be happy to hear if they're similar in taste or texture!
Noah Oliveira anything like a pomegranate?
@@KatieJoMikell nope not close at all
livelovehatebitchlove Ah OK thanks!
I love how happy and kind she is when she is testing fruits she always has such a great attitude she is so admirable
I love how she Hemingways every part of experiencing all these exotic fruits I've never learned about before. Really puts us there with her, and her enthusiasm is as refreshing and vibrant as her fruity fruit descriptions.
I’m Vietnamese and “Gac” doesn’t mean fruit. The “Qua” part of “qua gac” means fruit. Gac is just the name of the fruit.
When I saw your insta I thought it would be tart like a raspberry, you are right color does make you think a certain way.
your appreciation for nature is wonderful! your videos are so clean, cute, and informative!
Emmy, you are the only person that I'll watch do any kind of food or fruit reviews and that's only because you always give such accurate reviews. You're not like other people who drastically over exaggerate and by the time you're done watching the other people's reviews, you still have absolutely no idea what it tastes like or how it is. But with you, you give such great reviews, you describe the taste, texture, flavor and just everything about it. You never over exaggerate your reviews and you describe it so well, I feel like I just ate it with you. My point is is that you are so great at doing these kinds of reviews and I genuinely enjoy watching you. Also, how you say at the end of every video that I hope you guys learned something, Emmy, I always do learn something new because not only do you do a review of what you're eating but you also give the history of it and tell us where it came from and give us a bit of back story about whatever you may be reviewing that day. But I really enjoy watching your videos. You are such a great and positive person and your positivity is incredibly infectious and contagious. But yeah, thank you for always teaching us something new and doing such great reviews that I feel like I've just got done tasting it with you. You're a very special person Emmy and please don't ever change. We definitely need more people like you here on TH-cam and besides your positivity, you are incredibly honest too and I really admire that and appreciate that about you. You're just such an amazing person and I aspire to have a positive attitude like you. Keep up the awesome work Emmy, you rock.
Emmy's facial expression says it all....save your money people. 😫😂
lifeisablessing tbh I don’t think so. She sometimes makes faces that make the food seems like it tastes bad but then she says it’s alright. I guess she just makes those faces when it’s different from what she expected.
lifeisablessing she like wth😂
In vietnam you could buy the fruit for 5 dollars, 55 dollars is hella expensive
She always makes those faces😂.
I think it’s her concentration face!
You're the best at describing food flavours and textures. ❤️
All your videos are so amazing! This one is no exception ❤️❤️❤️ God bless, Ms. Emmy!
Never stop being you Emmy. I’ve watched you since the beginning and you’ve inspired me to go out and constantly try new things ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
It is used to make a sweet sticky rice and it combine the seed/flesh in it and with some coconut milk to make a delicous sticky rice
emmy you should try spanish lime! green fruit with a sweet membrane covering a tan seed!
Ooo...
I’ve always wanted to try them. They’re a lychee/Longan relative right? I would grow them but they’re an ultra-tropical and even San Diego weather isn’t enough for them!
One of my students told me that the college I'm working at now has a Spanish lime tree. I'll have to track it down when they come back in season.
That’s awesome! Where about (general area) if you don’t mind me asking? I’m curious about the climate zone it’s growing in!
@@AlbinoAxolotl South Florida...about an 40 min north of Miami. I'm guessing that the Spanish lime requires humidity and high temperatures...basically sauna like conditions. San Diego gets colder than here.
I LOVE EMMYS CONTENT SHES SO WARM WITH HER ENERGY I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME AND I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU KNOW YOU
Stumbled onto your channel a few days ago, and I'm watching a lot of your back catalog. I love the sense of wonder and delight you bring to exploring new things regardless of how much you ultimately like what you find.
Hey look..... there are strawberries inside. 😮😃😀
Whose strawberries?
*They're
^ theres
@@katyperrylover nooooo. that's not right 😂
Who's strawberries?
You can’t fool me, that’s a basketball.
Morgan R. ?
Lol
Morgan R. You've never seen a basketball...
Love how excited you are! It’s so contagious ❤️
I’m so happy you started doing these type of videos again❤️❤️❤️
Can you please eat sea grapes?!?!
Yesssss
Used to eat it when I was a child 💕
That'd be nice, but sea grapes are algae, not fruit.
Rainyciin they are!? That’s amazingly weird. What do they taste like?
@@MaxOakland I've never tried them, but I've heard they're salty, because they grow in the sea. And yeah, we like to give names out like that, apparently. For example -- sweet potatoes are not potatoes. Rather, they're a type of squash. They just look like potatoes to us so we call them potatoes.
“Spiky ball of fruit” :P

I love that fruity fruits is back!! This videos got me interested in your channel, so I am so excited that you’ve been doing this again)
froooooooooooooty froooooty
The fruit is not often eaten on its own, at least not that I’m familiar with. It’s usually used to make sticky rice, called Xôi gấc. It’s literally everywhere here in Vietnam but personally, since I was a kid, I’ve never been the biggest fan of it.
Womb Raider Jeez calm down 😂
That escalated quickly. 😐
Oh man, long day and just seeing Emmy and fruity fruits makes me inherently HAPPY!!
I think I’ve seen everything she’s ever filmed but maybe I’m due for a rewatching binge???
Nothing bad happens when Emmy is on!
I love her reactions. She really makes me feel like I'm sitting and talking to her at the kitchen table.
Definitely need some merch shirts that say:
"It looks so Alien 👽"
& "You taste like avocado🥑 " 😁😂😂
I’m Vietnamese-American and have never heard of this fruit! According to my mom, not too many people actually eat the fruit but the seeds are used as a kind of natural food coloring. Very interesting indeed
Edit: I should mention that it is normally used to color something called Xoi, which is a colorful sticky rice dish.
She will upload a video making that rice on Monday! I'm so excited to see it.
This is my favorite channel ever! I love your enthusiasm and your honesty. Please keep the videos coming. I learn so much. I made my first tofu yesterday from one of your videos.
I loved how you put words together to describe your experiences. And the way you eats the fruits just make me wants to try the fruits myself...
I could see some creative gourmet chef using this for something striking, whether it's the fruit itself or using the red pulp for something....
Reminded me of a ripe bitter melon...the colour and seeds
love your taste tests emmy the way you describe them makes it feel like im eating it too !
1/2 the reason I watch her videos, is because how excited she gets when something works or looks cool. It just makes me happy lol
I wish it had more flavor to at least make it worth its price! Thanks for the info.
In Vietnam we use the red flesh as natural food colouring xD
Always love how excited you get!!
I aspire to have a person that gets excited to see me like the way Emmy does with fruits
0:13 She sounded like Vanellope from wreck it Ralph
You should do a collab with Jared from Weird Explorer.
I watch him all the time. Very interesting
Or from Subway
@@joedude967 she's WAY too old for THAT Jared...
Heck yeah! He’s the best!
I agree that would be awesome. I found this show by watching The Weird Explorer.
I get really stoked when I see that Emmy uploads! I love seeing her good looking hair and her voice is really soothing! I hope I dont sound weird! Keep making great content Emmy :)
I loveee this series!! Thank you for creating these videos.
Make a simple syrup with it. Nice for icy drinks
Papaya has no taste to me. I've wanted to try dragon fruit because it's so pretty. But I've heard it's pretty tasteless. I'm glad you are trying fruits for us. Saves us money. 😊
Kleinochsenfurter yeah dragonfruit is pleasant but bland.
I have had dragon fruit that was very flavorful that came from a international market. The ones I have found in general grocery have been very plain tasting. I would recommend going to a market or international grocery if you wanna try it.
Having dragon fruit on the Canary Islands was eye opening. Such a big, delicious difference to the ones we can get in Germany. If it is bland it is not good!
Try yellow dragonfruit it has a much sweeter flavor!
My grandma always ate papaya. It always smelled like feet to me. Lol It’s supposed to help whiten teeth though
I came here because I've been obsessed with those Vietnamese bush craft videos and I needed a more Americanized run down of what the gac fruit actually is. Then I see in your excellent comment section things that confirm the other videos I've been watching. You're so good at what you do. Thank you for this ❤
I have never seen Emmy this excited after opening a fruit! That’s amazing! I’m going to have to track one of these down!
Spiky ball of fruit🍝🥝
I've been to Vietnam many times and have never seen one of those. "Qua" is the classifier in Vietnamese for fruit. It is better known as trái gấc in Vietnam. Gấc is the name of the fruit. It is pronounced as guc with a "u" sound and not an "a". It is touted to have great medicinal properties. From a Vietnamese website:
In addition to providing good eye care, cancer prevention, go to the kitchen to prepare delicious food from the gac you!
1. Gac tea is delicious
2. Gac steamed sweet sweet aroma cool
3. Gac Xoi delicious (xoi is sticky rice)
4. Stir fried gac
5. Beef Gac (I am sure it is gac stir fried with beef)
I love your videos but especially these! I love the fruity fruits intro so much it makes me so happy!!! I mean so do your ramen and ration pack tastings but this intro!
I think this might be my favorite series that you do all the different fruits are so interesting!
Fun fact: The Qua Guc helps prevent Prostate cancer.
it looks like an orange if you vaguely described it to an alien who then proceeded to genetically engineer one based on the given description.
I love you, Emmymade. You are one of the best food vloggers, Every time you describe the taste, I can taste it in my mouth
I love how excited you get !
Enjoy that spiky ball of fruit
Looks like strawberrys
In all the years I have been subscribed to your channel and watched all your videos.... this is the most fascinating one of them all. That piece of fruit is stunning! ❤️
Great video once again Emmy xx
Your pronunciation of “guc” sounds like “cuc”...which means poop in Vietnamese 😂😂
If anyone saw her standing somewhere, holding that big weird fruit with that crazy grin, people would consider crossing the street
*Thunder cracks while lightning streaks across the dark ominous sky*
Who else is here just to see Emmy's incredibly awesome and adorable reaction to the fruit she tries, no matter what fruit it is?
What I love about you and your channel, Emmy, is that I think you would have had the same reaction to the interior of this fruit whether it was filmed or not. You always appear absolutely candid. I get the feeling that a lot of your fans feel that way.
Ok, after watching about 10 of your videos, I find myself with a couple questions:
1) Have you ever gotten a negative digestive reaction from tasting all of those different foods? (I hope you liked how delicately I worded that.)
2) What is the absolute worst item you've tasted?
Btw, if I pay $50-55 for a piece of fruit, they had better not THINK of putting a dented fruit in the box!
The dent indicates that the fruit is ripe, ready to eat
That beautiful face....she is so damn pretty!
Darell Grant uh ok bud
i envy her beauty!
I know this is a very late comment, but your videos are always a breath of fresh air! Thank you for doing what you do!
I totally understand your enthusiasm! I believe fruits are one the most beautiful things in nature!
I ❤ fruits!
I disliked..... I'm just kidding. Who could dislike emmy
Pearl Daggett 20 people as now (3:05 UTC)
i cant think of a witty comment
I genuinely love it when emmy gets excited
I will never get tired of your child-like magical excitement about how exciting it is when you discover something new. Best channel on TH-cam. You've gotten me through some long sleepless nights, surgery recovery, tough cardio workouts, and just a nice thing to know is there. Thank you for being here and being you!
All that color and hardly any flavor😲 LAME
tweezerjam34 as salad
The tripophobia in me is triggered
I read this and instantly got chills and I just started the video. I'm not ready 😭
I love your food adventures! Yes nature is amazing! thank you for sharing the experience of these exotic fruits. ❤️
The first five seconds made me smile. Your reaction after opening the fruit made me laugh, you looked so excited.
My wife and I absolutley love your videos. You are sunshine in human form. Keep up the incredibly pleasant work.
Emmy - The first video of yours I saw was one of the Fruity Fruits series - glad you're still doing them!
Emmy’s enthusiasm about these fruits is so refreshing and cute
Emmy's smile is infectious🤗🤗😍
