I put blueberries on my waffles. They fit perfectly in each waffle hole, so they cannot fall off like they do with pancakes.
I cook them into the pancakes. No rolling off. ;)
@@guitaristxcore Ooh yes!
Haha, yeah! 💞
@@guitaristxcore I put them in the pancakes and on the top! You get two different tastes/textures that way :)
@@Ben-fr8gi i think Ill try that next time.
Just in case nobody told you today, I highly appreciate you Derek for dropping your knowledge on what we should be consuming 🙏🏽🌱❤️
Maybe a video on different sea vegetables, how to incorporate them into meals and their benefits
Hmm, I'll think about it. I don't eat too much variety, but I should eat more. We are on the coast too!
Yeah maybe like a video on seaweed’
I really only have nori and wakame on a usual basis, and have hijiki at a few restaurants (aka not often lol). It's super easy to have with soups (especially if you have any dashi based soup, which you can make with wakame) and then put on grains/noodles (nori).
I love Dulse, when I was in EU I got them from Ireland but the same ones can be found in St-John, NB, google Manan Dulse, they are the very best, you can buy them in bulk but they will dry out though if waiting long to eat them, I use them as a dry spice then. When fresh and soft I eat them like chips, they are so addictive!!
You can get sea grapes from asian markets. They are like a seaweed stem with tons of teeny tiny pods that pop in your mouth. In case you wanted some crunch compared to regular seaweed.
Blueberries will always be MY FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD
They are so good!
I think you should do a video on mushrooms!! There are too many veggies out there. I just eat them all! Keep on keeping on!
Will do!
Yes! I love mushrooms! They are so versatile. I’ve never looked into their nutritional profile, so that would be a really interesting video!
I'm from the USA and I've been to Canada on hiking trips and never seen so many wild blueberries in my life. There so delicious 😋
I think the food you should cover next is......sweet potatoes and also turmeric
My son (3yo) loves blueberries, when we buy them he seeks out of bed at night and eats them all lol.
James aka me lol. Sounds cute.
James aka me that’s adorable 💕
Congratulations. Your son is addicted to sugar. He craves animal fat. He will hate you as he ages and learns what real nutrition is.

@@Iliek shut up dingus
#1 reason why I feel lucky to be born in Canada :) just after that it's maple syrup :P
Agreed. Whenever people see my 1L bottle of maple syrup I get so many comments. Haha.
So you're sugar addicted like all vegetarians and vegans.
Blueberry is to Canada what Açaí is to Brazil. So be proud and go vegan!!
Brazilian soyboys always have to talk about their shitty country, whenever and whatever they are.
Finally, nature got something right! A health food that I actually crave and can enjoy! If only it wasn't so expensive...
Wow, I'm shocked by the thing about frozen blueberries, but that sure rings true. They are definitely less expensive when frozen too.
Quinoa can be a great topic for the next one!
Im not even vegan 🌱 but love your channel 🙌🏻❤️ and you as a great inspiration
Glad you are here!
For some reason, I prefer the taste of frozen blueberries A LOT better than the fresh blueberries, but blueberries are definitely one of my favorite fruits! ❤️😁
Me too! Freezing them makes them even more sweet.
It's all about that sugar for you nutrient starved vegans.
Nah, I’m healthier now than when I followed Weston A Price diet and ate animal products which caused high blood pressure for me. So please, you do you and I’ll do what works for me. I don’t add sugar to my diet other than the naturally occurring sugars in fruit, so I’m not worried about my sugar intake. Have a nice day as you enjoy your trolling .
Carnivore, keto, and all high fat low carb diets are malnutrition
I am happy to find someone who is getting tasty frozen blueberries. The ones I can get are hard, and crunchy with no juice at all. And no sweetness. I think the producers pick them before they are ripe then freeze dry them and sell them as “frozen”.
maybe next video you can talk about iodine for vegans. Highly ignored topic. Thanks
Good idea! I have in the past!
who cares about iodine my dad made me put iodine on my wrists lol who cares about it
You need iodine for your thyroid
Doesnt seaweed have loads of it
1tbsp iodised salt a few times a week, solved.
I love eating frozen blueberries! My great grandparents from Finland whom lived to 94 ate berries every night as an after dinner snack. They would pick them here in the us in summer and freeze and use all winter long! I just eat them too fast to remember to freeze them.
Derek I’ve been watching for a while now and have to say thank you to you. I am new to the plant based world and you are shining your light making things easier and exciting. You are a very good role model for the strength and ethics of a strong and capable modern man. I salute you 🙏
I eat blueberries every morning with my breakfast oatmeal concoction. I use frozen ones. I wish I had known earlier what I now know about whole-food plant-based eating - many years of standard western diet ended up with colon cancer and I am now a gutless bag lady for life. Still,, better late than never - I’m maintaining a really healthy weight and enjoying my food immensely, and also the adventure of learning a new method of cooking after so many years! My pantry has been transformed, and I expect my insides have, too. I love your “Amazing Foods” series - learning a lot, and getting really entertained along the way. Keep up the good work.
Defrosted frozen blueberries on my pancakes are my favorite way to get in my berries, I just wish they were cheaper. Gotta get that blueberry sponsorship Derek!
This is why I wish I could grow them, but I live in Texas :(
Dude yes!! They're naturally syrupy and gooey just like that 👌
BeansNgreens I was going to plant a bush, but after hearing it would take 6 years for me to get anything out of it, I think I’ll just have to go broke haha
Buy them fresh, they're about $2 per pint in Georgia.
About two years ago I began a daily diet of blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries everyday, mixed with almond milk & whey protein. Everyday, lots of fruit. Fruit corrects inflamation.
GREENS! Kale, Collard greens, parsley, green peppers, spinach, etc
Also potatoes and black beans.
Maybe do a video about mushrooms? They’re pretty healthy and tasty!
There is literally no nutritional value in mushroom.
goodmaki that’s not true, it may not be jam packed with vitamins and minerals, but it certainly has nutritional value.
@@funny7 name one nutrient
goodmaki I eat them because they are full of fibre, Copper, magnesium, zinc, b vitamins, not to mention the antioxidants.
Yes! I was just going to comment this!
Blueberry pancakes are the only way to eat pancakes 😋
Mushrooms or lentils next!!
Derek already made one about lentils 😁/watch?v=HEnR_dszD90
Love love love this series ❤️
Thanks!!! ❤️
Another great video!! I just made blueberry muffins!! *vegan of course* I love blueberries. 💙💙
i love your food series, thank you bro!
Love this series, Derek.
I've been eating blueberries daily for about a year now. Freezing prolongs their life. They are sweet and refreshing. I am going to try them in my salad and make that incredible dressing recipe you shared with us. Thankyou!
Love these! ♥️ Glad to hear there’s more coming down the line. 😁
Thank you🌻
love these videos!
love this series
Cosco 3lb organic frozen blueberries $8
What an excellent idea for salad dressing!
All Berries and Citrus are the best fruits due to the higher level of antioxidants and lower sugar load compared to other fruits 😋
Sugar in fruit is not bad in any amount
What they call antioxidants in fruit are antinutrients. Look it up.
Great overview, as always, master Derek! :)
Love these series, love you and what you are doing!
Man you are the best! Great content and always spreading such good vibes! Keep the awesome work!
Yay my fave series

Great video!
Sorry, been super busy. I'm the guy on Instagram who was saying "thank u, thank u, thank u". Finally got the chance to watch it, great job. I love this series which is y I asked u to start it back up again. My favorite way to have blueberries is with oatmeal for sure. Thank you again and my ideas for the future are mango, tahini, or any nut/seed. Much love, and I got my first package of PERFORM last week and used ur code. Ur the best bye 🙋♂️❤
Love blueberries. Incredibly nutritious, subtly sweet rather than overpoweringly sweet, easy to digest, versatile as can be, easy for people of all ages to eat, a fruit native to North America so locally sourced much of the year. A diet of seeds, nuts, berries and vegetables helps ensure a long, healthy life.
Love blueberries!!
Thanks ❤❤❤
Yay! Thanks so much for this! I have them every day in my oats!
Love your videos 💜💙💜

Hi Derek, and thanks for your videos❤
watching this while eating my oats/hemp seeds and bluebs!! Loving the food series!! Thanks for all the info!
I like a bowl of cold blueberries, a small dish of some unsalted roasted nuts (walnuts, hazel nuts, almonds, pistachios), and a tall cold glass of plain kefir for breakfast. Refreshing.
Another great video. So informative. Thanks!
I loveeeeeee them! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I didn’t know they’re great for recovery!
Loved your Video and the recipes at the end. Please make more videos like this one :) Will try your blueberry dressing 😋
Yum! So ready for more blueberries! Thanks Derek
Thank you so much Canada for your blueberries. I love blueberries and pretty much anything blue
Eating blueberries raw is definitely my go to. Or mixing frozen berries into my hot oatmeal and the berry juice comes out and sweetens the whole bowl of oats is AMAZING.
Hey thanks Derek! This is yet again another cool and very helping video about amazement and glorious food!
Great looking salad!
I love The amazing food series
I love this series!

You really have an eye for detail, and I can tell that this takes a long time to get so clean. Well done, sir.
