[@dennisolive4741]

Hi Joel, Dennis here. I love how the Thai people add so many herbs and greens on the side. The folks here in Bali don’t eat fresh veggies and herbs like that. The duck and fish look yummy. I haven’t tried the ant eggs yet, but I am wiling to give them a go. I have been teaching a couple of families to grow their own garden.the love it, and during this lockdown they can eat for free. It is a shame here they got so addicted to the tourist money they don’t know what to do. I feel this is a good lesson for them all. How to live in Bali with Bali people having to live from Bali people. They are lost, they say there is no work. The social life is only focused on the ceremonies.

[@dennisolive4741]

I hope everyone understands what I’m saying about the Bali way. I do love it here, but sometimes you just wish you could change the world.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Wooow. Dennis. Another very real and in-depth comment - oh wow. Well, first of all, GOOD on you for taking the time to teach! That is NOT an easy task, not when its basically changing the way of people's outlook, and how they are going to have to change their future (even in small ways, this is TOUGH!) great message, and good luck! Thai people in THIS part of Thailand are in the process of moving from living directly in contact with the land, to now having it slowly taken over by corporations and on smaller scale, loan sharks and loan scams and... its slowly happening everywhere. The food is still traditional, but where does it come from? How did it get here? I still wonder and worry about this often, but for your comments, Im sure its a similar story with Bali as is Phuket in the Thai South, not so much around here (but still, some things for sure!)

[@JoelsTastyRide]

No problem, I appreciate your heart, and you caring to learn!

[@dennisolive4741]

Thanks Joel, I am doing the best I can with the knowledge I have. This is a first for this fishing village. When I came they all said oh you can’t grow food here and I said why not. My pappy told me listen up boy, can’t never did anything. I guess it kinda stuck, so I used that attitude here and now people are growing food for the first time and it makes them so happy. I am also teaching the kids not to put plastic on the ground. They actually don’t see it as a problem. It because the elders don’t give a damn either. I tell them Jaga Bali bersih which means (keep Bali clean). The only solution is to make the corporations stop using petroleum and switch to some form of vegetable or hemp oil, so it’s biodegradable, and non polluting. As far as the world stays the same, this is a far off dream. Anyway thank you and Li, Mark and Ying for showing folks how great the world is through food. , peace and love, Dennis

[@dennisolive4741]

@@JoelsTastyRide Hi Joel, It’ sad to hear about the folks losing the old ways. I saw it happen here, when the tourist flooded Bali and money became their God. Now without the tourist they are like chickens with their heads cut off, walking in circles crying the blues, I’m bankrupt. Basically they are lazy without any desire to change or come up with a way to make it better without tourism. I don’t like to say that this current situation is a good opportunity to learn, but it is. Only if everyone is ready.

Thiiiiiiis one hahah this one maybe only slightly :) If you ask me directly I will just say it’s delicious because it is, so herbal, this one not too bitter, not as strong as the one in the video you were talking about :-) but yes it is that same idea, just a gigantic amount of herbs and mushy jungle ingredients, you can just sense the health in every bite. You’re awesome hope everything is going well today :-) blessings and a wish for a wonderful Saturday, hope to see you tomorrow :-)

Saibaidee Joel, Li AND Peam! Man that spread looked so SAAP SAAP! Literally drooling watching everything. Reminds me of the spread my family would have when I was younger on the khantoke. I love me some Miang but I never had it with Pla too - usually fried tilapia. Ant eggs have a crazy texture! Like a balloon or jelly Bean. What a treat!!! I would definitely take on this food challenge. Haha.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Sonexay bro, Sabaidee. SAAP nae nawn, this place is definitely one you would love, Im sure I can see that already, haha :). man, cool you always share Laos words with me man, so in the North of Thailand the traditional serving style would also be called Kantoke, but in Esaan I rarely hear that word!! Super cool man, so much of the language and culture and tradition for food especially, its all shared and mixed between these 3 areas in so many ways.... NEVER ending fascination man. And so thankful how TASTY the results of all this knowledge are in the end. haha!! Nice one, cheers on the ant eggs brother, hope to share a huge plate of all of this with you someday!

Big up, Bless UP! Love that comment, info warrior thanks so much - awesome.

[@kristinayofe8024]

The food looks so good. I wish we had good places to eat here. I miss eating Thai, Vietnamese, and Chinese food.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

RIGHT on :) Kristina, another great food love and positive energy comment :) Have a great day!

[@odettestroebel3135]

That food looks so good! You don't like seafood? Why oh why Joel. I love seafood, sushi, spicy and sour flavours. And always lots of fresh fruit and veg. Thailand looks like food heaven to me.

[@JoelsTastyRide]

So good Odette, great to see you again :). I do like seafish, very much, I just want to know where they come from... I am not against eating animals, I just want to know what the animals themselves eat before we eat them! Thats all :) Thailand is A food heaven yes, I would say SouthEast Asia is all over though too :)

[@odettestroebel3135]

@@JoelsTastyRide not judging at all 😂. I don't like chicken (do eat the livers and gizzards though) I just adore seafood. Probably not the cleanest protein you're right. Nice to see you again too. Blessings to yourself and Li.

[@Bighugz75]

all that food looked wonderful ....nice place

[@JoelsTastyRide]

I hope you are doing well today, do you recognize any of these dishes from any other videos yet :-)?

[@connielikens3415]

Oh, ya! Hello Li and Peam!

[@JoelsTastyRide]

haha thank you Connie

[@lifesprint5541]

I can only imagine how fresh and tasty all of of those dishes were. I think I’d have to pass on the ant eggs tho bro 🐜 🐜 😂

[@JoelsTastyRide]

So good Pen, another great comment :) Hey, I wasnt so stoked at first but now, after 10 years, I see how awesome the crazy little ingredients like this are... thats what makes it 'authentic and local' flavor, you cant fake it!

[@lifesprint5541]

@@JoelsTastyRide 10/10 for authenticity bro here in the uk people would run for miles to avoid this were so squeamish and boring when it comes to food.. stay safe you guys and I look forward to your next video x

Wow Joel! This looks so good! But I'm afraid I would offend! No ant eggs for me please. Yikes!!

[@JoelsTastyRide]

Hiii Connie, the double comment, glad youre enjoying this one today! For the ant eggs, might sound weird but for me I know that they are possibly the ultimate organic, clean, pure protein source around,... right? So for that, I definitely appreciate it!

[@connielikens3415]

[@007JNR]

should also remove the row of bones on the lefthand side of the fish. You can pull it away just like you do the skeleton. Makes eating any fish a lot easier.
