🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

Ok
Hey
Hello Andrew. I'm Hmong, and I just want to say thank you for showing such a high level of respect for my people. I want to point out to the audience that what miss Mee said at the end when you asked her what she will do with extra money, the translation is correct. BUT the way miss Mee said it is a phrase our hmong elder often says it. Its almost like looking down on herself :*(. In literal translation, she said, "peb hmoob ruam ruam tsis paub khwv nyaj ne." Meaning, "we hmongs are stupid and don't know how to make money." BUT before anyone comes at me or her, please understand that for us, this is to actually show how humble the elders are--at the same time though, this phrase is to carry our sadness of not having an established country, our sad history of being war torn and separated. In simple term, this is a most humble and sad way to say, "we don't have anything...but we will be okay."
Thank you!
Your translation like many Hmong-to-English translators, by Western-born and educated Hmong, is always too literal thus mostly wrong to a fault. True, Hmong are very humble. True, Hmong do not have a historically documented country of and all their own. That said, Hmong definitely do not " looking down " on themselves or am stupid. If this were true, they would have been completely suppressed, overruled, and exterminated by their foreign invaders and conquerors throughout their existence and history. The fact that you are here in the West is testament of not only their bravery, resilience, and survivalist ingenuity but more so their pride (not looking down) to maintain their culture, heritage, and way of life (identity), plus their intellect and perseverance -- favoring democracy over communism.
When any Hmong, especially the elders or in this case Miss Mee, says 'ruam' in this context they are not implying or claiming to be stupid. They are in fact talking about education, having the opportunity to learn and be able to read, write, and speak especially a foreign language, to better one's outlook and life in a global more modernized world. They see the world changing around them and know full well that without an education they are merely peasants like their ancestors. And that without an education it is difficult to make a living to earn income or make money. Most if not all Hmong-to-English translators only know the basic literal meaning of spoken Hmong words not their contextual or applied meanings especially in complete phrases like the one so wrongfully translated and just as wrongfully explained by Moon Artist. True, most if not all of you are merely Hmong offsprings thus the lack of insight and intimate knowledge of the language, words, vocabulary, and applied meanings. Ua tsaug.
@@aliasdoe007 Thanks for the grand example of lack of humbleness. You're just a showcase that without humbleness and too much knowledge is the result of someone as yourself. Big words won't change the fact that you have no idea what I'm talking about. All the knowledge of language in the world and you lack the language of humbleness.
@@moonartist4607 You're welcome. Humbleness is not a language. It's simply a word or noun to mean a state of being. Again typical mistranslation and faulty interpretations of Hmong's Western offsprings.
It is in fact you that has no idea what you are talking about especially in regards to the Hmong phrase you incorrectly translated or tried to into English in your rant.
@@aliasdoe007 Im not here to argue with your narrowmindedness. You're the only one here taking things way too literally. Educating where its not necessary, as a matter of fact, not educating at all, but just here to showcase pride in your own knowledge that you see as self elevating. People in your personal life must not compliment you enough for you to feel the need to come and showcase it on youtube. I pity you and my conversation ends here with you. Humbleness is in fact the loudest language if only you listen to it with your heart, something in which you obviously lack. Bye.
@@moonartist4607 For someone preaching humbleness yet eludes arrogance is rather hypocritical and amusing. Again typical of Hmong's Western offsprings. Ruam ces zoo li no tiag.
Confidence is not walking into a room thinking you’re better than everyone, its walking into a room not comparing yourself to anyone at all.
Awesome ty
Is confidence going into a country that can't provide running water to it's entire population and comparing itself to first world nations?

@@spellstunseedbackwards902 No, he telling the truth, you guy geting used to it.
I'm glad you asked how often they eat certain items on their menu. A lot of times when these smaller villages have outsiders as guests to their dinners they'll do their best to bring more dishes or the seasonal or rarer dishes to the table
When she said her name is "me" i remembered the scene in rush hour you are mi and i am yu haha😂
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Vietnamese names also have Du (you) and My (me). So hope they won't introduce themselves to each other in English
haha
I'm hmong and when he asked for her name, I commented "what are the odds it's Me" and behold rush hour moment 🤣
Carter 😄😄😄😄
At 18:25 the old lady literally says “We are kinda dumb and don’t know how to make money”, The translator just made up some stuff about buying extra meat and oil lmao
Lamo😅😂, Been called stupid a lot of times in Hmong so I totally knew what she said
I think they might’ve cut the video weirdly because if you notice, the older lady does answer similarly to what the younger lady was translating, just kind of out of order.

Simple minds are easily amused.
I thought it was rude and disrespectful.
@@truman5838 oh cheer up mate
@@truman5838 Exactly! if he was that scared, then he shouldn't have gone but he CHOSE to chase money knowing that the video would be a good content. If he can't go with an opened mind then stick to the easy video contents such as restaurant foods.
I think he was talking about the pounding
Can we take a second to appreciate how beautiful their traditional clothes are.
I like how this dude doesn't just go to other Countries just for food, he goes full throttle into other cultures and actually takes the time to learn.
The thumbnail is very disrespectful.
the HMong girl speaks English with such an amazing level despite living in an area with limited access to social media and learning resources. My huge respect!!!
is social media english school? and why do u think they have limited resources
LMAAAAAAAAAOOO GIRL
Stop your assumptions internet
@@BrianOdong They’re Vietnamese I don’t think they’re assuming 😂 And a ton of foreign people learn English from the internet, so yes it can be English school.
I didn't grew up with internet at home, yet I know how to speak English. She went to school 😂
Every night when I'm hungry..I come here. It's not helping...
Then cook
Gotcha..found you again😂😂😂
Why are you here, bish u stalkin me or somethin
Oh
Bahahahah
The amount of respect you guys have shown in this video is incredible. Thank you for opening up their lives and culture to the world. Very heartwarming series, thank you.
Even as a Hmong American and I still may not know much about my culture yet, I'm gladly appreciated to see Hmong people on this show from half way across the world! Thank you for the video!!!
Wait, someone is actually acknowledging and talking about the Hmong? This makes me so happy, I don't know how to react
Sameeee!
Internet does wonder!
Especially when we learn that many cultures exist with beautiful stories hidden. Those seem kinda out of our reach but literally just a fingertip away now.
@@cuttysperm I completely agree! It's just sad because, specifically in the USA, people don't know that the Hmong exist unless they're from certain parts of California, Minnesota, or Wisconsin. And because they don't know that we exist, they don't know to look for us. The US government, as it has for countless other communities and groups, erased us from their history completely embarrassed by what they did to us.
@@nateplayz3386 Racism never faded in some lineages for sure. They always thought they are supreme.
I'd say money is a real culprit here though. 😪
I do realize this when I start travelling, saw many that truly open my eyes. 🤓. Be proud of whoever we are, whenever and wherever. 👍
@@nateplayz3386 Yes. USA promised Hmong people food stamps for life. Probably didn't honor it. A Hmong family saved almost 30K in food stamps and actually tried to buy a vehicle. Where I live Hmong people are honored and recognized in a better and more proper way as veterans of war.
I really appreciate this channel for expanding people’s horizon about different food and cuisines. People living in the wealthy societies will never bump into food shortage issues and have to deal with harsh living conditions. In poor regions people need find whatever to eat as a means to survive and got criticized and stigmatized for what they ate.
That happens a lot in rural America too. Especially during the great depression. People lived out of a swamp and Townes shamed them for it. ( gaters turtle snake rats are not common food in USA unless your dirt poor and the grocery is the swamp/ woods outside the back door)
@@cynthiarothrock4255 Correction: happened. At this point they have access to all the resources they need not to mention decent living conditions. Let's not act as if it is this bad in America
@@jxstfilz welcome to public housing where THE BUILDING IM LIVING IN DOES NOT MEET STATE BUILDING CODE AND WE HAVE HOMELESS THAT ARE IMPORTED BY THE MAYOR WITHOUT HOUSING OR JOBS OR ENOUGH FOOD. PLUS LACK OF MEDICAL CARE. The I.U. students get the red and gold carpet and the Townes gets the gutter with sewage.
Hv bop
@@jxstfilzit can be anywhere in the world. Food insecurity is a real thing for a minority of people throughout Europe, America and other wealthy countries .
I really hoped Mee would be gifted with a plough machine or funds to start her own shop, when she was asked what she wanted most. I was saddened when this wasn’t the case. God bless these people and give them the dignity and prosperity they deserve. Xx
I was so weak when ya start pounding the sticky rice. The ladies was like.. "why don't ya go on the other side? You almost hit me." In hmong. LOL! Usually when pounding the sticky rice, you stay across from each other.
I’m glad someone translated in dead lol 💀
I'm surprised noones commented on how they want to pound your sticky rice ijs 🤣💀🤦🏿♂️🤟🏿

@@gregwebster8784 We really have . True words.
Sry if this is random but are you a weeb?
Wow! As a Hmong person, I am glad that other people know about our ethnicity. Usually it’s always Japanese, Vietnamese, Chinese, the more known Asian ethnicities. I personally wouldn’t eat some of these things but it is still appreciated that he tried it and respected the different ways of cooking. 😊
Are you staying in the USA
HmongS is a huge number of nation
That's probably because Chinese, Vietnames, and Japanese each have their own countries named after them. People know the Thai, the Cambodians, the Malaysians, but few people know about the Hmong, the Bai, the Hakka, and many of the other minority groups that don't have their own nation state.

I’m learning so many new things
, it’s amazing that Hmong people have managed to develop and adapt with the resources around them
(I’d like to try those purple rice cakes one day)

@@umarb7325 dude. 😂😂😂
I saw Hmong in Thailand and Laos. Are there Hmong all across South East Asia? I love their clothes.
@@umarb7325 Nope I think it's only them. I'd say go see a optometrist asap.
@@umarb7325 Not all Hmongs practice this. I'm from the USA. We don't do this.
4:18 Hello! I am a vietnamese person here! I lived in vietnam for almost 10 years. (I moved to the US) I wanted to say how this video make me realize the different cultures even in near places! But i was surprised they have the same word that we have even though it's a completely different food! so cool
In high school I had a friend by the name Liz. That was her English name. She told me her actual Hmong name but unfortunately I forget. Anyways... I can remember for some event we had at school she would wear her traditional Hmong dress. It was beautiful. She would also often tell stories about the traditional foods they would eat especially around certain Hmong holidays. It was so fascinating to me!
5:48
That guy: "what's going on in here?"
That woman: "it's a jungle rat"
That guy: "oh jungle rats.. jungle rats.. and what's this for?"
That guy mind: "i hope it's not what i think it is, you better no-"
That woman: "for eating ^-^"
That guy: "oh for eating"
That guy mind: "ah shit here we go again.."
Love that scene lmao
What did that guy think it was for?
His name is Sonny lol
As someone of part asian(mongolian)descent I appreciate you opening people's eyes to different people and traditions
Mongolian traditions are wayyyy diffrent.
Actual Mongols or you just using a outdated term for the asian race?
she straight up said. "hmong are dumb and dont know how to make money" and then "if i had money i would buy meat" lol im sure the gist of it was what they translated it to but it was funny.
I think the cuts also kinda messed it up. I mean she could’ve have a longer answer to that question 🤔
her line doesnt mean dumb or stupid, it's mean uneducated.
@@myang0420 Mine was a "literal" translation. If I were gonna translate it, I would say she spoke to the lack of resources to which they can generate income in that area. I believe we are some of the most resourceful people on earth.
I started laughing at this but I'm sure she meant it with no bad intentions.
@@ZoeyHer yeah we hmong have a beautifully direct way of humbleness.
Thank you for this amazing and entertaining video of the Hmong people of Vietnam. Through food we can learn so much about other cultures in a limited amount of time.
as a American born Hmong dude It's so interesting to see Hmong people in this scenery, its like what my grandparents tell me about their stories in the mountain's of Thailand
You must have grown up listening to a lot of cool tales.
@@notafailure2138 yeah I've heard a lot from daily life on the mountains, to little ghost stories they would tell me for fun.

My parents said my grandma was always the strongest and best at making those rice cakes back then. If only she was still around today for me to show her this awesome video.
That's one terrifying looking rat ^-^" lol.
Those aren't rat. I'd say they're rather similar to beavers.... They only eat tree roots. We call those "khuui" in Maring dialect.
They're moles bro lol literally living in darkness, they used the blood in the girls eye cause the moles see in the dark or whatever. I was so confused when I saw that the rat was a mole
Rat is a generic term for rodentia/rodents. It can be very misleading as all rodents are not rats. It’s one of my pet peeves. 😂✌🏻
@@melissadunton3534 that's not the case In the US/UK or any other 1st world country. Rat means rat. Rodent means rodent. They're not interchangeable lol
@@siyasam1247 exactly moles alot of countries eat them
it kinda looks more like a gopher to me
Not gonna lie but this channel deserves to be on netflix 😭✊🏼
no 100%
As a 1st generation Hmong American, I am grateful for my parents and grandparents who have taught me these life skills on surviving. I am so happy to see these videos.
The blood in the eyes is definitely not a Hmong practice. That's the first time I've ever seen it done. Quite disturbing.
Yes this is not practiced in America.
I know there’s certain areas in Vietnam that have practices that would be considered strange or disturbing to Vietnamese people in the cities. So I assume it’s the same in this case. It’s not safe to assume that just because some Hmong people might practice putting blood in their eyes that it is a common practice in the greater population of Hmong people.
she was just answering them questioning if it's a general Hmong practice, just to Vietnamese Hmongs or just Hmongs in this village. And it's definitely not a tradition. It's just something these Hmong people here do.
@Messy Well, I've never heard of any Hmong people doing it or seen it ever being done so, UNTIL NOW! What your culture do, that's your culture. :)

Ahhahahahahahhahahahahaha
Because why would he say that 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes that was surprising to me. I'm Hmonf but I've never seen or heard of that prabefore. Could be that village only. Sometime when you're very poor you turned to beliefs.
The Hmong people and their culture are so beautiful. This is one of my favorite episodes now. (Not to be Negatron, but I hope the kids don't get any parasite or virus from the rat's blood they put into their eyes).
Yeah someone needs to teach them about bacteria and virus. Still many countries and people are not educated about health issues.
Many people who live in the countryside or isolated from civilization do things by ASSUMPTION and NOT by logical research which at times can lead to danger circumstances.
It's not standard, Like he said it's not a widespread practice. Since Hmong people aren't widely connected with each other, they all follow a different version/ type of tradition. It varies depending on the village and family. Heck, my entire tree line didn't do this. surprised me too. Want something interesting. Listen to their folk tales (a lot scarier in Hmong dialect).
Corona v2
Hope someone can donate and get them schooled preferably in medical school and bring back the knowledge to the family

As a hmong I had fun watching this and learning more of my culture
These guys must be grateful they don't have irritable bowel syndrome.
Such a gift it is to be able to eat all the varieties of food you want.
Listen carefully. 1 clove of garlic a far, chewed raw, washed down with water. Do not eat any dairy or bread -zero- quinoa as your only grains for 2 weeks. Then from there you can try stuff out. IBS runs in my family and I had it as a kid. After you do this you have to go on an elimination diet. I can't eat certain foods so I just order things without those ingredients. Whey, Casein, and Milk is a no, vinegars, sugars nope for me. I've been good for years after that, but if you never figure out the foods you're screwed. They use garlic in a ton of their dishes because garlic kills everything. It contains allicin which is lab proven to be over 100x more effective than amoxicillin and to kill cancer cells. Garlic can reset your gut flora.

Man the locals there seem way nicer and more fun loving than a lot of others that's been in his vids.
My favourite show. Makes my day beautiful, all the time.
Thats so interesting that's it started in China but was introduced to Japan through Southeast Asia, when China is so much closer to Japan. Them again, China is pretty big and also there's an almost continuous chain of islands from South East Asia to Japan, making sea along that route very effective
I'm curious. Was it invented in Southern China? Because that would make the spread of this tradition make a whole lot of sense
Crazy how different Hmong people in Thailand and Vietnam are
"These women are so badass" I stan this comment.
I’m Hmong and I have never heard about putting rat bloods in the eyes to get a better vision at night.
Forreal, but I guess its a interesting tradition I never knew before, too!
Most likely similar to that snake cake of not a usual occurrence. But I'm sure as hmong children can relate with their parents giving them dubious medicine with supposed effects. I've had my share of bitter medicine and some actually work while others I only hope I gained some poison tolerance lol.
My dad and I are White Hmong, we looked at that like "WtF?" XD
@Missy B nasty imagine all the disease in the blood
Pretty gross thing to do
My uncle served as an advisor during the Vietnam War and said that the Nung mercenaries would often carry rat jerky as their daily rations. Hard men doing hard things
On today’s episode of “Look, we found people who don’t stare at a phone all day”
And we’re all staring at our phones watching them. Ironic isn’t it? 😂✌🏻
Ayo speak for yourself
I mostly stare at my phone all night
18:27 she didn’t translate it. The lady said “we’re not educated to even get money.”.
It's still better tho
Oh it hurts
they probs got the clip a lil messed up-
as a hmong person, it brings me joy to see somebody connect with my race
Thank you for doing this! I am a Hmong American and so very little people know about us. I kid you not! I’ve had people ask me so many times, “What is Hmong?” This is lovely what you’re doing. Not just for the Hmong community but ALL communities you’ve visited. Watching you travel around the world and speak about the food (which many people can connect through) and sometimes brief histories is so amazing. Thank you.
15:49 I love it when he curses. "Is she f*cking with us?"😂😂
Nobody.
Literally Nobody:
Best ever food review show = food + hist lessons
Omg did you see msg uncle roger favourite salt
Remember kids, "That's an interesting flavor..." is code for "This is fucking disgusting get me out of here I don't wanna be rude"
I actually like how he wants to experience what it is in dif cultures/places and not just him watching
Ohh Sonny was contemplating all kinds of decision at 16:01.
"When Andrew is out fishing the MEN and I go hunting..." Shots fired!!😂😂
this is the best food review show ever!
That's what she said
He said*
Why does he remind me of an optimistic kind of Anthony Bourdain
@@prakharsahu1384 *They said
😂
Shoutout to my grandparents for sacrificing everything for me to be here.
Your respect for your elders is admirable
When they tell me the shit they had to go through to get here it makes me cry everytime
Ta shout-out to them 😎🥺🥺🥺
Yup. Peeps don't know how good they got it
@@yerlee4 Not at all. Life in the U.S., or any other first world countries, is freaking easy. Even when I first came to the U.S., the ghettos were a thousand times better than it was when I was in Laos. In Laos, we only ate when we had food, which wasn't everyday. Water needed to be boiled before we can drink it. Restrooms were basically huge trough where it's best to be at the top as everything flows downhill. Taking a shower meant walking down to the river.
This is actually the most refreshing video i’ve seen since the pandemic yeara. Great editing/photography of the nature of the outside world and fresh ideas from different cultures. Thanks! 😮
Ah yes, my family loves pounded sticky rice. I use a cake mixer to “pound” the rice and the family uses a pancake cooker to grill the top and bottom at the same time. Then, they dip it in honey. The kids love it.
Watching every show from Tanzania, East Africa! Thank you Sonny for connecting all of us culturally.
I hope after covid19 Sony will travel to your country.🥰
@@buianh1257 hope so too, fingers crossed 🤞🏼
The way they connect with the folks made the video special ❤️❤️
Vietnam people very friendly and happy to see foreign come
Love seeing my Hmong people in different parts of the world ❤️❤️
I love when you work with other people to host your show. And this time you let Andrew get the easier job, 😂. Usually you give him the harder one to do, 😆. One of my favorite episodes is when you too had to compete for the easier job. Good times.
This sticky rice cake is usually feasted during the Hmong New Year; it is not a daily or even a monthly food item.
I love how you communicate with people you come in contact with. When y'all went rodent hunting. The guy said, "This hole doesn't have one but the other hole did." And you caught on quick that the hole was empty. I enjoyed watching this.
