🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but 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.

YES, this is a repost. KZbin removed the original video after it had already amassed 2 million views. The reasons are complicated, boring and dumb, but I’ll explain. We used some footage from a channel that labeled it as “Creative Commons” meaning anyone can use it in their edit. Then we got a copyright strike on the channel for using that footage. It turns out, the footage we used wasn’t Creative Commons. Some KZbin channel had just reloaded this footage and labeled it as such. Sadly, this means youtube’s Creative Commons labeling system is useless, because anyone can just load someone else’s footage and label it as such. So, in order not to waste our extraordinary effort in making this video, we’ve reedited it, having taken out those handful of clips we’d used. That said, the strike still remains on our channel. Fun, right? The channel whose footage we inadvertantly used refused to make any type of licensing deal with us. Oh well. That’s their right. Brand New Videos Coming Saturday!!!! Thank you for your patience.

[@OleAndersAndreassen]

When it comes to whaling, many overlook the fact that whales are direct competitors to fishermen. Minke whales along the Norwegian coast consume twice as much cod as is landed during the Lofoten fishery. Whaling has been a natural source of food for thousands of years along Norway's coastline. That this tradition is maintained in the Faroe Islands seems entirely natural to me.

[@wowswc]

Minke whales have been eating cod the same over centuries. HUMANS have overfished so much cod over the years that it now seems less than what whales eat.

@@rhyswilliams4893 As a Nordic I can say that A LOT of our conversations consist of comments and observations that are meant to be sarcastic or funny but not necessarily to laugh at. So we are often ''trying to be funny'' but it's not like we are doing standup and trying to make people laugh all the time, it's just how we speak about things by default. It's very similiar to British dry humor, but I feel like Brits generaly come of as more confident and negative while Nordics come of as more awkward and lighthearted.

@burgerkang3249 by tourists. Iceland is a small country marked by exceptional (mostly) roadside attractions. Between the small country, stark landscapes and short hikes, sites look and feel impacted quickly. There's simply too many people - tourists. That ruins what made Iceland great. Imagine if you could pan out from Instagram photos of places Antelope Canyon, US and Pulpit Rock, Norway. You'd see way too many vying for the perfect view instead of being humbled by nature's glory. Those are great examples of expectations versus reality. Iceland is a study in that - expectation versus reality. The Faroe Islands and Greenland are still the Instagram photo. You have no problems being humbled. Get there before it becomes Iceland. I'm obviously not making some novel observation, and I recognize I am part of the problem. I did not "get there first", much less early. So, please don't focus on that... not that you may have been.

Legit, any person who can live off the sea and land and have respect for it's sustainability is a truly gorgeous soul inside and out, and although there has been much consternation regarding the Faroe Islands traditions, they are no different than any other indigenous group, and unless you're from there, your opinion is exactly that. Thank you for showing the true heart of her people, and for remaining respectful and reverent towards the special gift you received to be invited to join the folks who live on and work the ecosystem.

U make me wanna visit Faroe Island. It's amazing. This video is one of my favorites of yours. Thanks for sharing :)

[@Meechylil]

I think this is the cleanest country or island I seen and heard of.... the island look so damn clean everything they do look so clean❤

[@PremiumMatt]

Been waiting for this one, team. It’s nice to see traditional eating that pushes the limits and tugs the heart strings. In the end, it’s all about survival. ❤

[@johnsterling5425]

for survival it's ok but to see a modern person living in abundance then going into the wild to eat "survival" food (whales) is quite repulsive.

[@disgruntled4627]

@@johnsterling5425 Yeah cause big agriculture and slaughter is a lot more sane and morale than hunting in a naturalist setting. 🤡

[@johnsterling5425]

@@disgruntled4627 i'm glad you put the clown emoji on such a troll of a comment. . . 1) that's a false premise to argue we can only have one or the other (big agri or whaling are out only choces?) 2) whaling is not a natural nor sustainable, these are modern people hunting endangered species under the guise of 'culture' whaling is a repulsive joke

[@Lemonz1989]

​@@johnsterling5425 It isn't "survival food", it's literally a part of the national cuisine. Whale meat isn't some quirky delicacy that they eat for fun; it's actual food that people eat to not be hungry, like beef or pork or whatever in other countries. I grew up during the 90's there, during a severe financial crisis, and when we got our share of whale meat, it was such a big relief and help to our finances. Sometimes it's enough food to feed a family for weeks, and sometimes even months. It's can be large amounts of free food, since whale meat isn't caught for commercial purposes, and is shared based on an at least 600+ year old system of community allocation. I don't live there anymore, and I don't really miss it either, but I hate it when people frame it like it's just something people do for "fun" there. Besides, the "abundance" you see is relatively new. The real development started in the 70's. My currently alive grandparents (who are in their 90's now) lived in anything but abundance.

[@johnsterling5425]

@@Lemonz1989 so is it a survival food or not? you seem to be contradicting yourself. cows and pigs are domesticated and not wind animals, like whales, in danger of going extinct. nothing you said justifies Sonny's well fed ass flying on a jet to eat these endangered animals.

[@murtlupton6968]

A beautiful island as well as the people, and you’re right you showed us things that we probably will never ever see in our lifetime. Awesome interview with the lovely friendly people of Faroe Islands.

[@mmpatriot2170]

That was amazing! You have done so many exotic food videos, and mostly in Asia. Who would have guessed that one of your most exotic food videos would be in the ocean west of Europe. So crazy interesting. I live in Utah, USA, and I do some hunting. But this was next level. Thank you. 🙏

[@seacoin3611]

Man thank you so much for this clip I was waiting for the Faroe Islands clip for a while now and you made It amazingly interesting

[@KittyO7878]

I'd swear those "brocoli sprouts " are actually cress 😂 Also being from Scotland I've eaten many a horse mussel or Clabby Doo as we call them, the name comes from the Gaelic words "clab" meaning an enormous mouth and "dubh" which means black or dark.

[@Macphisto77]

I thought the same, but after some research I found out that cress is actually broccoli sprouts.

[@kyliejm2]

That was the best hour and a bit ever. I loved this entire video. The presentation, covering controversial aspects and presenting the viewpoint of the locals perfectly. Thank you

[@afmiyake7590]

I get a No Reservation from Anthony Bourdain vibes on your video. Keep doing the great work!

[@chrise842]

It's not the whale, fermented sheep or puffins. It's the friends you meet along the way.

[@mikeh2520]

This was absolutely fascinating and the production was so well done. Bravo!

[@JamesJangmaw]

Sonny, I wish you could one day come back to Myanmar, of course when there's no more gun powder smells. I would love to show you the beautiful northern part of our country and culture.

[@ComboBreakerHD]

37:05 that's a bit fascinating eh. The world caught wind of their traditions, condemned them for it, the youths stepped up to protect it, so I guess the global lecturing had an opposite effect.

[@Kllood-yc3bh]

Incredible video, I mean, the intro is very good. The smoothness that this video has is incredible. Good work 👏
