8 Types of Asians at The Dinner Table

[@maggiezeng6347]

My Asian family with another friend's Asian family At the end: My mom:Wahhh ok I pay the bill! Someone else: NO I PAY My mom:No me Another person:HELL NO I PAY *arguement later* Someone: Ok then I pay tip *World War 3 happens*

[@maggiezeng6347]

No for real

[@PenguPlayzMC]

Same... For me i have a friend's Asian family who always tries to give off free food to me when i visit (They run a restraunt)

[@haoplaysgames5573]

yep my mom does that too xd

[@KC-sk6tz]

Maggie Zeng so true

[@otakupuschel-dq2eb]

So True XD !!!

[@JonathanHung8]

You left out the Compliment Fisher: The cook, usually a grandma, who says their food is "not so good", but she actually wants you to just disagree and say no no it's so good.

[@OR0R0]

Jonathan Hung my grandmother is this! lol

[@dgytc11]

Jonathan Hung YES MY AUNT

[@phant0m0th_]

My grandma does that too!! She's also the "food insister" and "tea pourer."

[@elizabethhuang8450]

Bethany Francia YES. This is literally the perfect description of my grandma!

[@sangeliastorck8283]

Jonathan Hung That is me at times.

[@alyssamae711]

One time when I was drinking soup, my mom said "drink more and it makes you smarter" and while I was drinking, she tested me on multiplication O_o

[@OR0R0]

[@viviantang6451]

[@maggiechan2567]

AmusedAlyssa lol Ik how u feel. My mom made me write out the multiplication table from 1 to 12 then told me to memorize them. About an hour later, we go out to get groceries and while she was driving, she tested me multiplication.

[@tracyqin7589]

Blue Clouds Food is more important is everything

[@tina-bu4uk]

I have a similar story where I was told To watch this little cut kid. And my friends were bad with her and I was the best with her. So when I was eating it wold usually take bout 30 mins but I just got power and I was eating in like 5 mins and so then I took care of that kid .

[@squippites7356]

That’s literally me

[@SelenaC_anime]

把住碗！(Hold your bowl) 不要(zha)你的筷子！(Don't stick your chopsticks in your food) 吃完饭！(Finish your food) The most common things I've been told at the table.

[@JariSatta]

Selena C 怎么不动筷子？

[@Demandd]

不是 “勿动筷子”，而是不要把筷子在碗里竖着插，因为和墓前烧的香很相似，是种坏的预兆。

[@SelenaC_anime]

Okay, I can't read Chinese THAT well.

[@ChaiChanUP]

Selena C I love people who translates into english, ty ^^

[@Demandd]

Holy Fork Selena C ***** You're not supposed to stick your chopsticks vertically into your bowl, because it resembles incense sticks burnt in front of your ancestor's graves. According to Chinese superstition it's a very bad omen. I was reprimanded when I was younger for doing that.

[@loganwetterling7331]

Asian food is probably the best in the world! It's so interesting and that probably why the Asian table is interesting.

[@ListersHatsune]

food photographer: Mum and eldest Auntie Speed eater: younger Auntie Slurper: all of us Spitter: none of us (but I can see my brother being this in the future) insistant eater: Grandpa Tea pourer: my mum is the closet thing Fear factor specialist: all of us to a point but especially me (we don't understand why people don't like these things - fish eyes are the best part of the fish) Food benefit maker upper: Grandparents

[@perid0t608]

aListers lol. same here

[@Cursimoo]

For photographer, sometimes, one picture and the food needs to be very interesting and shocking

[@Cursimoo]

My dad is sometimes, the speed eater but not too fast but the fastest in my family

[@NinjaToe]

+aListers food photographer: No one, (actually if someone brings electronics the table, my mom will chase that person out with a broom) Speed eater: My mom, younger uncle, younger cousin Slurper: all off us Spitter: Grandpa, elder uncle Tea pourer+ food insister: Younger auntie (she has a mission that she will make all the family weigh like whale....) My mom (she always thinks that I don't eat enough) Fear factor eater: My mom food benefit maker upper: My mom, aunties

[@eryalmario5299]

I'm the tea pourer lol

[@shadowlynx1958]

How about the food critic? The one who is always saying how what you really like is "so bad for you", "so unhealthy", or has been linked through "scientific studies" to cause some deadly medical condition.

[@celestechong_]

That's basically me....

[@jea-seo1333]

shadowlynx1958 ack you sound like my mom with my dad being fear factor, they make me want to just get up and leave

[@OR0R0]

[@alexguan1611]

You sure Asians even quite scientific research? They make facts up on the spot!

[@BeUYT1]

Alot of asians eat with there legs crossed or one foot on the chair 😂

[@mayseylu]

Hahahaha that's me. My mom sits beside me so she always complains about me being unfeminine

[@mayakisilov8586]

Thats me. But I'm not Asian

[@abbyheartbilly]

I agree with you to say that

[@Blue0Xenon]

What about the people who fight over the check? :)

[@Yafama]

Sarah W Eveyone one the table at least moms and dads fight over it.

[@zea4478]

My usual Asian family and our Asian friends My fam: I PAY BILL Other fam: NO I PAY My fam: but you got us ____! Other fam: but you got us _____ AND _____! **one long argument later** Both fams: We'll pay half and half me: **facepalms** Or Other fam: ok we pay My fam: but we pay tip

[@britneydao6807]

[@britneydao6807]

[@fionalieslittle2878]

Michael Mazin that's me 😂😂😂

[@TheJapaneseBubble]

fun fact: slurping the noodles in noodle soups is actually very welcome (as far as i know in japan) since this way, the cook recognises that the person who eats it really likes it :D

[@kyndralewis9256]

TheJapaneseBubble that's the reason they do it. It's a part of life, not a fun fact😂

[@weeklydoseofinsanity3319]

No it’s a common misconception, I am half japanese and never heard this from locals. It’s just natural to slurp in Japan cuz we born with that

[@TotallyGlamDolls]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I had a Chinese boss who was the "Health benefit maker-upper" for sure...Hilarious video guys!

[@joycegraves2559]

I hate double dipping. I will generally skip those items I cannot put on my own plate to avoid the double dipping of others.

[@H2B_01]

fish eyeball is so good...

[@zarrin6486]

When Asians go out to a restaurant with another Asian family: My mum; that was good, I think it's time for me to get my purse and pay. Mum: where's the purse?? Other Fam: HAHA we took it, we are paying! My mum: No WE PAY, UR GUESTS!!!! My dad: -snatches purse- My mum: hahahahahaha -starts fighting - -finishes fight with bruises and broken bones- My mum: haha, we won let's pay. Other fam: Not so fast -pulls them to the floor- Other fam: lets go and pay. My mum: fine I'm laying next time and I'm paying tip. The end

[@kleuafflatus]

Come on double dipping is bad, not sure if its a southern custom, but in hk we have 公筷 literally public chopsticks on the table which you can use them to pick up food from the dish than switch to your own chopsticks and eat it from you bowl.

[@you741sings]

I like fish eyeballs... I need glasses...

[@verinamusherure881]

the fish eyeball is the best😂

[@kelvinfang5202]

[@zea4478]

You Zhou same..people think I'm weird -A-

[@nylcalvario5592]

I'm always the one who takes the fish eyes cuz I like'em

[@geezyexe3889]

You Zhou they are so good

[@symt3880]

the tea pourer hahahahahahahaha. That part was soooo funny

[@AshleyWeill]

Yes double dipping unless they are sick or being gross about it.

[@mayseylu]

I love double dipping but I dip it on one side, eat it, then dip it again on the other. I find it gross when people double dip with the same side they ate from.

[@meteoritea]

Me too, I even break the chips for example into multiple pieces so I get more delicious sauce AKA alioli/mayo with chips.

[@RaymondHng]

I call The Food Insister The Dumper. There will be a few remaining pieces of a dish left and my mother will dump those pieces on my plate without asking even though I don't want any more because I'm getting full.

[@jessicatang5986]

My mum says she doesn't want anything, so she gives the best pieces to me.

[@yiannn07]

The one who tells you to get plastic to takeout food Sorry if wrong grammar

[@Hoo88846]

Chinese are very courteous. They insist on paying bills when they eat out. They insist food or drinks on others. I would consider those as good and courteous manners.

[@chickennuggets7092]

The food insister is actually a way for adults or younger kids to show respect and care. It's a must-do whenever there are senior citizens during meal times.

[@akiko2289]

I am guilty of being the food photographer . . .

[@Larsernxd]

Love Yi's acting! So funny! ^^

[@박수연-w1t3l]

Lol my younger brothers are the kind of people who say "Oh, don't eat that, I want it!" So I leave it alone, but they end up getting too full to eat it ;P

[@nsilvya6079]

My mom is the food photographer If someone already took a bite before she takes a picture she will shout so loud that the house or restaurant can hear it It happened every single time

[@annieg9711]

Hahaha yes my mom is the food insister

[@Zara-tf8oh]

Annie Gao girl aren't all moms well really only when they make it ibguess

[@justtrash1992]

-No sticking chopsticks on food -Hold your bowl -Eat everything -Did you this fish? -Eat more

[@johnkoztecki8951]

Double-dippiing? My wife goes NUTS when she sees you guys using your OWN chopsticks when helping yourselves from a serving dish! She always makes sure that there are enough serving spoons or a set of chopsticks for each item on the table. If not, we use the opposite ends of our own chopsticks to serve ourselves. If we come to Flushing and she catches you, expect a (motherly) b***h-slap upside your face. :-) Oh, and we love all your shows, seriously.

[@Infinity323Gaming]

Grandma: "Here, eat this" Me: "What's this?" Grandma: "Deer antler. It's good for you" Me: "ok.."

[@asmaalabidi134]

My mom says the same thing with the food correlating to same organ

[@Racye-bf7vn]

Thanks for the video, Mikes! I have now coined the phrase, "Next level slurping." Ha ha ha!

[@ankitap1]

Team Mike no double dipping

[@ericyuchi]

I remember that every time when family gathering, my aunt, who cooks most of the food, never joined us on table. She was cooking more food while we were eating, even though we told her there were too many dishes here and we can't finish them.

[@joyzheng9217]

1:17 MOM?!? IS THAT YOU!!

[@amongusmusic3713]

In Asia it is polite to slurp because when you like the food then you probably like/love the food, so the one who makes the food is very glad you like/love it

[@Jasongy827]

I'm a slurper when it comes to pho, ramen, or phnom Peanh noodles.

[@HoaNguyen-mg8oo]

Armani Nguon Same my family actually wants me to slurp

[@Kitti_B]

I'm definitely the fear factor enthusiast. Actually my family is. I love when we fight for chicken liver, heart, brains and legs!! Oh god! The only thing my bother gets at every Christmas is the head of the fish. My dad is the slurper, mum is the insister. Watching your videos sometimes makes me wonder if I grew up in an Asian family or not, because when you talk about family traditions they are 90% accurate... and I live in Hungary. :D

[@ansonlaw447]

No double dipping

[@doors200x9]

My mom is a photo photographer. Also the food insister and the last one. I'm the speed eater with a part of the spitter and the fear fact enthusiast My dad is the slurper My sister is the person who just talks while she eats.... like me sort of actually My grandmas (both) is the tea pourer

[@Cookiesdiefrombehind]

You're being unfair to the tea pourer. I have been the youngest in my family during my childhood and it was my duty to fill the cup of the elders. If you don't want them to keep filling your cup, just leave your cup full instead of feeling obligated to drink it.

[@youcancallmeneck5178]

You forgot the ninth one. The foreginer that has been invited for cantonese brunch and spilled everything over his shirts and shorts :(

[@bosehpu]

Just meor does he look like Jackie chan??

[@blackstars6512]

Icecream Pusheen nope

[@mido4935]

i know right

[@jask498]

I think his face shape and hairstyle is similar to Jackie Chan's, which is why you think that. I wouldn't say it's racist but merely an observation

[@1981cherokee1]

You guys forgot the worse.....talking with food in your mouth!!! Is this an Asian thing? They don't swallow there food before talking. I can still see the chewed up food in your mouth...and sometimes food particular goes flying out there mouth. Why??

[@kyraheath2801]

My great grandma is like the food insister and the tea pourer combined. Whenever my family has a big get together, at dinner time my great grandma asks EVERYONE if they have eaten yet, and someone says they haven't eaten she will get a plate for them and load it with food! Lol XD

[@haneyhan444]

mom: *when i was six* eat some more fish. you’ll get scales and can breathe under water. or drink milk, it will make you more whiter. *mother everyday*: here eat more, youre very skinny. *later that day* mom: stop eating na, fat na kaayo ka. *me taking food photos in restaurants* mom: is that necessary? eat na. it will get cold. *my mom next time in restaurant* *takes an aesthetic food photo that she later uploads in fb* me: how in the?¿

[@nubemuffin]

I remember in a previous video Mike said he had no accent in chinese. But here Mike is rockin that erhua. I thought erhua was the main indicator of a northern accent!!!!

[@rozarinthefatcow8423]

I'm a speed eater

[@rozarinthefatcow8423]

And the spitter

[@SevenSlayers1]

Rozarin The Fat Cow im only the speed eater

[@sandykoong]

When i used to live with my parents, my dad would have his midnight snack while everyone is sleeping, and i get so annoyed with his slurping.

[@eunique.22]

No offence Dan, but double dipping is kinda gross.. (not because i'm a gurl but it is hygiene)..... YOU GUYS ROCK ..>.

[@tranuyenphuong3551]

Mike is so cute when he acts tea pourer!!!

[@xpinkbamboox]

Team mike! Double dipping is unhygienic

[@ricyen8149]

the origin of the table tapping in the "Tea Pourer" scene is that back in Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qian Long had dressed as citizens and traveled around China tried to see what the country he ruled really be like outside the palace, when he was in the restaurants, he always pour tea for his retinues. Maybe he really was a nice person idk, but back in the palace, in situation like this, people had to kneel down to show gratefulness to the Emperor. But they were out in some random restaurant and the Emperor really didn't want anyone to recognize him, so the retinue began to do those "finger kneels" instead.

[@PaulBasso]

What about the guy that is picky about his food and will sit there picking out pork skin or certain parts of chicken. I've also seen those that see something they don't really like so they spend half an hour picking out what they don't want to eat. There is also the mothers that tell you "Eh Sonny! You shouldn't eat so much food. Do you want to get fat?" Good video, though! Keep putting them out!

[@angelasun8070]

Yaasss and then the mothers say "Why are you so skinny?! Eat some more!" And then later say "you're so fat, you eat so much!"

[@PaulBasso]

With my mom it was "Eat everything on your plate. There are children in India that would love to have what you have." When I got older, I told my mom to pack up "this garbage" and mail it to India. She didn't see the humor in that statement. Sigh!!!

[@DalgonaC]

I almost died at the tea pourer. I need to share this video with all my friends.

Everybody who loves this channel is secretly Asian even if they say they are a different race. Admit it we are all Asian.

[@robertcorbell1006]

I'm not even Asian but went to a college where many of the students were and so they would get visits from family every so often and my friends would invite me to kick back as an outsider and watch the fun unfold at meals. XD

[@abigailclark9231]

Woohoo first! Lol sorry... I know I'm annoying like that >~

[@owenluo3244]

You forgot the "hot/cold" food expert that tells you not to eat "cold" food when youre hungry Hot food could be lychees and cold food could be hot tea so it gets confusing

[@MAmJ4]

What he said: Big Family Dinners What I Thought: Big fa-t booty

[@foreverhobbes]

Team Dan. I'm all for double-dipping with family and friends. A family who doubles dips together (and shares drinks together) stays together! I guess if I were strangers I wouldn't be as inclined to double dip, but I still wouldn't have a huge problem with it.

[@95MartyD]

#DoubleDick ;) :D

[@lilaroberts7537]

The corresponding body part thing comes from having very similar organs so eating them gives you an extra and balanced supply of food that your body is more likely to use to make that part of your body healthier.

[@luvpinkhellokitty]

This is tooooooo cool!! Loved it!!! High Five!!

[@hailee1797]

Hi I'm a new subscriber! I saw your chopsticks v.s. Fork video I loved it!

[@OhanaInPortland]

In Singapore, EVERYONE double, triple, quadruple dips (unless you're sick, of course)! Team Dan all the way!

[@tsukisakura1]

personally, i only take picture of food if it's a big dinner or plated prettily..

[@I_am_Musiq94]

That tea part cracks me up every time 😂

[@cindy19812009]

In my family we have the slurper, the inhaler and the double dipper. We are all white. I myself do not do these thing but I will slurp a milkshake and will share with my husband and kids but no one else. I mean if they want a bite of my food I will give them a bite. I know it is gross but in my mind we all live together and share the same germs anyway and none of them are old enough to date so no problems there. Except for my 18 year old but he moved out and we don't share food because he doesn't live here and also he dates.

[@gameovergandy]

I love these videos!

[@Banyanab]

Team Dan for double dipping under certain circumstances. Strangers and non-close friends have cooties, no people who have too much saliva, and not if somebody is sick or thinks they might be.

[@lucky_lola]

Omg, my mom is definitely the "instant" one. Except she dies it with constantly trying to get people to try foods that they don't want to eat. She'll basically just try to stuff foods in people's mouths as they're trying to run away. She did this to me with herring and sour cream and I think I'm scared for life lol.

[@danny7218]

You guys should do a video on discreet asian customs. That tapping you were doing in the tea pourer section goes back to an ancient Chinese story. Quick synopsis of the the story goes: One day a king and his two guards sneak out of the palace to experience the life of a commoner, the king goes to a tea parlor for dim sum and has his guards sit with him the king notices that people in the parlor poured tea for each other around the table so he took it upon himself to pour tea for himself and his guards. The guards got on their knees and started bowing cause no king ever poured tea for them. He told them to quickly get up before anyone would see and told them to tap two fingers on the table to signify bowing instead. That is the story my grandfather told me! =D

[@jessicaz7299]

I agree with the food benifit thing cause when my grandma makes fish soup, my mom is like eat the fish soup, it will make your skin smoother or prettier. It's annoying!

[@SaintSeiya300]

I remember my grandmother being the food insister, she would never let me leave the table unless I had thirds when I was a kid! Mythbusters actually put double dipping to the test on one of their older episodes. They came out with that it doesn't really matter. But I think it's just more of a courtesy not to double dip because (at least for me) I was always told never to double dip since it's considered rude.

[@toulee6737]

i enjoy both dan and mike its so fun keep it up, oh and also mike dan do look like jet li and im asian too hahaha
