[@pwangs]

This turned out so great! Just like EVERYONES sandwiches! 😜 Jasmine and I are best friends now 😅 Thx Joelle for this fun idea, and congrats/happy bday Mei!

[@apopofficial]

Thanks for hanging out with us! (PS: just we just tried your hainanese chicken tacos from the seasonal menu. and it's SO GOOD)

[@Ehawkjj2]

The fact it was her first time making the bun too is crazy. I would’ve been so happy

[@jdude99lolz]

These comments had me thinking the girls were gonna be awful but they were fine lol everyone was very nice and supportive.

[@raphyninja]

To be fair those ingredients in that sauce are fairly similar to what thousand islands consists of. Since it's essentially also a mayo, citrus, Worcestershire, and hot sauce combo.

[@msynrap867]

Jazmine was really offended and Mei was a little arrogant. It kind of left the video in bad taste with the unnecessary comments on the pickles. I've eaten thicker pickles too so idg the animosity. She didn't even make her own bread. Also the editor could have maybe compressed and mastered the audio so it would be even.

[@theOPindian]

meiquinn needs a DEDICATED food channel

[@brittneytrinh3735]

this is so funny i love all their interactions 😆

[@thecunninlynguist]

its just a dill pickle 😂...it tastes like thousand island 🤣...I would've went for Mei's too...but I am intrigued by Jasmine's.

[@aaronmontgomery2055]

I think she did kind of describe something similar to thousand island

[@deafaith]

bring this to the east coast! Looks so good

[@victorwan6050]

Jasmine, nice to see you on the show.

[@fuzzyfluffyy]

10:06 LOL this moment had me dead

[@MeYunior]

Jasmine would be a high maintenance girlfriend, maybe slightly toxic.

[@elmcloudtt]

hello apop, this was reviewed with delicious asian fried sandwiches. think the 3 bun choices were the most fun - almost if i bought a takeout of taiwanese chicken over rice and taking the piece and making own sandwich. i would try hoisin sauce with cilantro with the chan bao. thank you again. elle for sweet sour chick

[@dhsauno]

I'm not shocked that foodie influencers took themselves too seriously but I do feel like Phil's palate was off?

[@VegetableFRIES]

Joelle is mad cute.

[@awwwkitteh]

Those that didn't make their own bread automatically ets -2 from me. making the bread is real dedication

[@qundangledingle4895]

do they not come prepared for about what is going to happen in the video according to the tittle he is just doing his job ...

[@J-tt1lu]

He was really mean

[@theduane1562]

@@J-tt1lu I feel like if you think he was mean you've never interacted with a mean person.

[@renf1ower]

the vid is a great idea but the assignment was way too difficult/confusing and it makes both the girls and Phil look bad. Phil wanted a recreation of his sandwich and critiqued it as so, the girls wanted to put their own twist on it. It’s understandable but really now it seems they are all uncomfortable. Even the girl who won spent her whole birthday doing this KZbin challenge.

[@itplop]

They are so hurt lmao

[@TheNamesElijah]

This video was good! The comments are tripping ps the girls were so beautiful (:

[@Thatdammjenn]

Should have done a blind taste test.

[@extra4542]

Why? In food presentation matters too. It’s already blind in that he can’t see who’s is who’s which is the only factor that should matter in any bias

[@kidultstudios]

whoever the cam op was didnt focus LMFAO

[@Spoilnins]

Jasmine has a funny head.

[@jaimeme7484]

Can the editor PLEASE make the sound effects not blast my ear drums

[@RottedDollface]

I'm sorry but your comment and the look of the cute cat in your pic match so well.😂😂😂😂

[@cloud_xeno]

He seems like a novice when it comes to food overall

[@Ruffinho]

Bro talking like he`s Gordon Ramsey

[@erickfrago7224]

what did mei taste in the beginning? isnt she the same mei from buzzfeed that's vegan? unless she is no longer vegan, but wouldn't it be better if there was a disclaimer since there's a video she did before saying she is vegan?

[@aquagamer1212]

Why would you need a disclaimer on someone else’s eating preferences? Her being vegan or not has no effect on you.

[@erickfrago7224]

@@aquagamer1212 it's called being responsible. If you have long established your public identity in that platform as a vegan, why would you suddenly you appear on a video eating "chicken"? Unless you havent seen any of her previous videos. edit: or if this Mei is only here for the publicity/virality/likes

[@Howlie]

im hungy

[@justash1993]

First person honestly doesn't deserve it smh she literally didn't even make her own bun

[@breet4235]

only one person made their own bun and it wasn't apart of the rules so I think its fair.

[@AkankshaMishra_1998]

Oh my god! Why are the girls like this? It's okay for him to not like something.

[@LinaLaniLuv]

Buzzfeed Producer personalities I suppose...Not saying they're right. They're just probably all Type A personalities to have the jobs they have.

[@darrylt8502]

No it's not. When it comes to cooking, having a high standard is a good thing lol.

[@joelleolol]

we're also friends with phil off camera, so a little opportunity to roast and poke fun just for the drama of the video keeps things interesting :))

[@siptang81]

the wong fu guys have a terrible palate lol. I remember them going to eat steak and talking about the food and everything they said made 0 sense lol

[@itplop]

Sweater girl needs a therapist

[@JackVitick]

2nd girl a 10

[@joelleolol]

LOL flattered

[@JackVitick]

@@joelleolol can we hold hands when we cross the street?

[@zaprude]

So will they go on a date now, or what's the concept? ;)

[@minukjeong7647]

Phil is happily married. I do not think a date will happen. Maybe they will just be friends.

[@lukeTJQ]

poor guy

[@lordmusea]

I’m glad those videos where mom’s make food don’t have contestants like this. They were butthurt for sure!

[@bennguyen6827]

Jasmine needs to chill out… No one is tryna kiss your… He’s being honest Learn how to take criticism Jasmine is that girl who blames the teacher for telling her she did the wrong page on the HW booklet HAHAHA

[@dixonyamada6969]

i know this is super light hearted but i felt like as contestants the girls were kinda....karen-y. like, bro you had 1 assignment, and two of yall straight up messed up. one straight up missed the assignhment, the other made a huge error in protein selection then explained it to phil as if it was his fault, like bruh what. just take the L respectfully. why would you like...whine at the judge for judging your dish based on pre-established criteria? props to the first girl for taking her job seriously though. even spending half her birthday on it. again, ik this is lighthearted, but like idk, just feels very off. i never seen the contestants whine like this before in one of these vids.

[@CunSeeDat]

Can someone tell me why the face of the girl on the left is so gad damn shiny? It's like she put oil on her face or something.

[@sirenseath7896]

Is it Philip wang? I dont think Phil Wang is correct

[@_aiko020]

His full name is Philip, but he goes by Phil.

[@sirenseath7896]

@@_aiko020 oh, for people like me who saw him for the first time got confused when i searched for phil wang on google, anyways thanks for the explanation.

[@laurawilliams1991]

That guy is arrogant and obnoxious.

"that guy" is a core memory of every asian american kid growing up in the internet age. who are you?
