I just want to say thank you for actually showing American cuisine, Foreigners really think we eat straight fast food everyday every meal

[@ChaosMind10531]

American regional cuisine is severely underrated and under talked about... People from other countries only find out about it when they really look for it... The image of USA cuisine has been "ruined" by the prevalence of fast food restaurants (McDonalds, Burger King, Wendys, etc) which by and large advertise and serve basically the same type of food (burgers, fried chicken, and fries)... Also doesn't help when news about how a large amount is consumed by the nation's population, literally showing the world how addicted and part of the daily diet fast food has become in the USA... Now this could be exaggeration to some degree by media but it does affect on how people outside and even inside the USA see as the face of American cuisine...

​@@koraeginot really

[@feistsorcerer2251]

​@@koraegiThat sounds more like it's where you live/have been. Every part of the US has some kind of good regional cuisine to offer. The northeast has some amazing seafood, and plenty of amazing cuisines made from Americanized immigrant cuisine from all sorts of cultures. Not to mention some of the best delis are up there, though those are dying out. I'm from the South and even I know there's some good stuff in the northeast. It's like anywhere else though where sometimes you live in a place that doesn't have good offerings. Like there are towns in Texas where the best food you can find is an Olive Garden and second best will be a McDonald's. In the state with some of the best food in the country.

As a New Orleans local, Im insulted by the bread. The quality of bread is the #1 sign of a good Po Boy, and without freshly made bread you might as well just eat the fried shrimp by itself. Also this place is a bit of a tourist spot, if you want the best Po Boy go to Parkway Tavern

[@TanukiSC]

I was going to say that comment is going to anger a lot of people who know how good the bread can be. This is definitely a tourist spot, but if they wanted to get the best of each dish in NO, they would never have enough time.

​@@ashexrome7621Lactose intolerance isn't an allergy. It's important not to confuse intolerances and allergies because both can make your life miserable but only one will potentially kill you. Allergies are your immune system acting up. And will often get worse with repeated exposure. Intolerances are your body being unable to process part of a food and having negative results from that. They will generally remain the same with repeated exposure and ome of them can even get better. Conflating the two can cause people to make their allergies worse because they think it works like an intolerance.

[@KhronicD]

@@feistsorcerer2251 Just to point out a minor flaw there, there have been loads of studies and practice that show that many allergies do in fact get better with repeated exposure. It's not a guaranteed treatment, but there is plenty of scientific and anecdotal evidence that shows being exposed to the things you're allergic to can help the body develop a better response to those allergens. Obviously it's different for different people. The take out here should be ask a doctor or two before you do anything that might cause issues with your body in general.

New Orleans style food is the best.

I'm a truck driver from Lafayette. Every time I leave, I know that it's going to be a while before I get some good home cooking. Truck stop food is some of the worst food. Fast food, or overpriced bland diners.

[@Pre613]

The muffuletta is friggin awesome. A real treat.

[@chunkyd5880]

So big. Reminds me of a NYC style deli sandwich.

[@tosweet68]

Reminds me of the large Schlotzsky's sandwiches I used to get when I could easily eat that much....lol

[@Thorntongirl85]

Josh and Ollie discovering Tony’s 😂😂😂 easy boys a little goes a long way

[@YepOkay]

Too bad they put several shakes on a single bite of food lol, that must have been soooo salty

[@magpie388]

Being from New Orleans, it was so fun to watch this series. I’m glad y’all had a great time here in our crazy city! Come back soon!

[@MooshiiiTV]

As someone who lives in Louisiana, I got so excited when I saw that shaker of Tony's 😭 It's such a good seasoning for literally everything!!

[@ypw510]

Absolutely. But Frank's RedHot already trademarked "I put that S**** on everything!"

[@WoodsintheBurg94]

I used Tony’s for years but then tried Slap Ya Mama’s and it beat Tony’s hands down in my opinion. The KZbin star, Cajun Ninja has his own seasoning, Pi-yaah, and it is my new favorite.

[@BigSeth1090]

Heck, I’m from over in Texas and growing up we had three shakers on the dinner table: salt, pepper, and Tony’s

[@manasweesingh]

The red beans dish seem awfully similar to the way us Indians make them, its called 'Rajma chawal', which is red beans and rice cooked to an absolute perfection with loads of spices, seeing this I immediately wanna have rajma chawal for lunch today 😂 You guys have one hell of a job, seeing you I have made a list of all the things I wanna eat before I die...😂

[@Ferrist1]

Any bean dishes you see in the American south came from Africans, rice dishes too. I've noticed that some Africans and Indians have similar cooking methods.

[@sailordave1000]

Ours (south Louisiana) is made by firs sauteeing a chopped mix of onions, bell peppers, and celery as well as browning cut up smoked sausage. We use kidney beans added to the pot. Some will remove some of the cooked kidney beans to mash and put back in the pot to thicken like a gravy or stew. Serve over white rice.

[@AN-jw2oe]

Me too, I’ve made a list of all the things they love! 😂 because I trust their tastebuds!

[@mrinaldeyyyy]

I was looking for this comment, yes I wanna have rajma chawal now

[@Lillypop93]

​@@sailordave1000you forgot to say you have to add GARLIC the Cajun Trinity is onions peppers and garlic

[@bendalton5221]

New Orleans is a culinary destination for a reason, glad to see you enjoyed yourselves at all of the places you went to on this trip... makes me want to day trip over and get some food.....

[@scottfoster6951]

I’m so glad you are showcasing southern food! It’s simple, and fabulous!

[@raywescovich8711]

Glad to see yall are enjoying southern food

[@toodlescae]

Red beans and rice is epic. Now I need to make some. Red Beans and Eckrich sausage going on the grocery list.

[@sfong9633]

If you want good po boys, try the Pig & the Lady. Theirs is a little spicy, but it's delicious. And it's Vietnamese fusion (the owner is Vietnamese), so they use Frrench bread.

[@michelewilliams5131]

I really am so happy y’all came to Louisiana!!! As much as y’all love food it’s a definite!

[@katiek1856]

I don’t know anyone who sprinkles Tony’s on food that’s already prepared and served on the plate. It’s used to cook with not a topping seasoning.

[@buddhafullmind]

hhahaha i know, as soon as I saw them doing that I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@lilcajungirl62]

Well, I’m New Orleans born and raised, and I’ve done that. It was on food that had little to no seasoning, though! I admit, I have used Tony’s like salt and pepper!

[@seventeenshome7691]

this video came perfectly timed, I've been studying for exams the past few days and this made my day 🤭

[@laurarose1234]

I love seeing you both light up when you enjoy eating something delicious.

[@gavinshickle1814]

I think we need a 3 minute montage video of nothing but Luke reacting to one bite that Josh or Ollie give him to try.

[@BlakHeart666]

Pralines should be next as well as a crawfish étouffée

[@juliaflanagan4148]

So glad y’all tried our Deep South PoBoys! And the bread IS the star because of that fantastic sound I heard when you took your first bite! That crunch says you’re eating a PoBoy and not a soft bread like in a submarine sandwich. Also, Tony Chachere’s is used as cooking seasoning and rarely sprinkled on cooked food like salt. That must have made the sandwich terrible! So happy you are enjoying the flavors of the Deep South. Now, you need to go to the Mississippi Delta to try the tamales!

[@matthewthibodoux4539]

Mississippi trying to steal Louisianas thunder 😂 "Deep Southand our" smh ❤

[@alanstrickland9717]

Yeah, I've used Tony's as a french fry seasoning, but most of the time I use it it's on food I'm actively cooking never after it's cooked. Never just raw on a sandwich either. My guess is it was there to put on regular fries.

[@juliaflanagan4148]

I guess you don't travel to the Gulf Coast very often....🙂@@matthewthibodoux4539

[@arimcelveen9298]

Lmaooo the way Josh said “Po-Boys , call me a Po-Fan” 😂

[@user-yh3ut7lz6e]

I love when Ollie tells a bad joke and just kinda looks at the camera like “well, you can’t win them all”

[@hybridstrength1697]

My husband and I use "Uncle Tony's" creole seasoning on EVERYTHING. Loved this whole series.

[@brianrounding4258]

ChackaCherries... put that sh^t on Errthing

[@roringusanda2837]

I cook with it a lot, especially since I had the coof, really helps! But don't usually put it on food after cooking... certainly not poured on like this kid did! I think he really had no idea what it was😅 imagine being so unacquainted with spices?!

[@saraheveland5907]

Have y'all had Hush Puppies yet? If not, you really need to try them!

[@nikkirockznikkirockz8551]

Erm, nope we're noT cuttin' out anY ingredients in our World's Best Sandwiches dear Ollie, however it is always a blast to see you and Josh swim in the flavors of it whilst you give your hilarious, quirky critiques!! 😂

[@christerry182]

The two of you are adorable☺️

[@melizam8069]

Thanks guys for the New Orleans episodes. We use to go every year for Christmas time. Bringing back lots of memories. ❤ We haven’t been back since covid and also it was our last family vacation with our Dad before he passed 😢. I hope to be back in New Orleans soon ❤

[@SMcKee-ic5oh]

You guys really covered N.O. well. It looks like you got a little taste of everything. The only thing that's missing is a trip to Avery Island to get a heaping tour of the Tabasco sauce factory. I know the favorite for most people is Crystal and that's OK too. My takeaway on all of the videos combined is spices, spices and more spices. When you feel like there's just enough add a little bit more.

[@karaleblanc7880]

I love watching you guys! We recently moved to Texas and I miss New Orleans so much! Watching y'all's videos is making me homesick 😭

[@coltoneast2164]

As a Louisiana native I belive this is y’all favorite tour of food y’all have ever done. We have best food in the USA hands down

[@matthew5553]

Been really enjoying this series in New Orleans!

[@lethastewart4397]

I’m just shocked that two British guys loved the okra. I live in Texas and there are plenty of people here in America who don’t like it because they think it’s slimy. I grew up eating it and I love it.

[@jontarr7444]

It straight up IS slimy, and I am proudly & firmly on team No Thanks

[@toodlescae]

Yeah. I'm one. I'll only eat okra if it's deep fried like that.

[@johnmclane9965]

Okra is only slimy when it's boiled. I can't stand it that way. Fried is the way to go.

[@MrVvulf]

@@johnmclane9965 100%. And my favorite sauce to pair it with is mix of mayo and horseradish.

[@emilyb5307]

I prefer fried or pickled!

[@lil-moonchild]

Louisiana born and raised. So excited to see you two enjoy all the food NOLA has to offer. Would have loved to bump into y'all.

[@Arkavian1191]

I always love it when our food is introduced to foreign visitors. Glad you guys got a taste of Louisiana and I hope you enjoyed your trip!

[@pcrbr]

Po’ boys are absolutely delicious. My favorite Po’ boy is Darrell’s in Lake Charles

[@goatitisful]

Red beans and rice is a dish I often make... if anybody wants to try it at home, use Paul Prudomme's recipe... it's fantastic.

[@merriemisfit8406]

I don't know which recipe my mum used, but whenever she'd make a pot of red beans for me I would take a toothpick, dip it into a bottle of Dave's Insanity Sauce, and then madly stir just the little dab from the toothpick all through the pot to get the right amount of "hot" properly distributed. Daddy took a shortcut: He just went to Popeye's.

[@HawthorneHillNaturePreserve]

I would definitely hang out with these guys! They’re hilarious, and I love their passion for good food!😊

[@jmb1101]

There is no place like NOLA! The food is truly unique.

[@connertalks7918]

i saw the alligator on the menu and was hoping you guys would try that hehe

[@MizuIto2050]

i think they had alligator before in florida when josh went to a friends bachelorparty or so

[@solitarelee6200]

I saw alligator on that menu! I wish you guys had tried it, I don't know that you can really get alligator out of the south, and it's very good.

[@cynsi7604]

First time I had gator 🐊 was at my Uncle’s wedding in FL. It was GREAT. BUT the Muffuletta….OMG…ITS HEAVEN!!!! 🤤 Oh crap I’m sooo want one NOW!! ✌🏻

[@thatgirl9532]

You can eat alligator (aka crocodile) in Australia and in parts of Asia too

[@elizabethmuhleisen357]

I’ve eaten the alligator sausage poboy at Parkway several times. Tasty.

[@bobybrown0288]

Thanks guys for this southern series. I get excited when I visit a place you reviewed on your channel. I just went for one day to New Orleans and I also tried Beignets in Cafe du Monde

[@tcortez]

Your post has made me move the red beans and rice up in my family's food schedule. We weren't having it until next week, but I am making some today. Thanks

[@itloog3594]

i love ollie's face at "they blew up a cow and made debris duh"

[@rozanidesignsmasquerade7050]

So glad to see you both enjoying yourselves. 😍 Excellent choice of infamous New Orleans sandwiches❣️Roast Beef PoBoys are my favs. 👍

[@clairebear197627]

3:26 Ollie’s nails are perfect😂

[@72PRODIGALSON]

Y'all should have tried Oyster, Crawfish, and Alligator Po' Boys too.

[@alien_from_andromeda]

alligator is the best🙏

[@72PRODIGALSON]

@@alien_from_andromeda I, wholeheartedly, agree!

[@EMPRESSMOMM]

I want to eat all of that, it looked so amazing & delicious 😊❤❤

[@Nasro703]

I’m not a seafood guy, but I still get a shrimp po’boy when ever I’m in Nawlins!

[@MrJking065]

I have enjoyed watching everyone in America reacting to your videos. Great content!

[@stephd2607]

It’s been great to watch you enjoy my state in this trip!
