[@petraramirez-bonna3132]

When she called the plátano a potato wedge I lost it

[@zanebrooks6406]

Lol

[@dhsauno]

I'm so embarrassed for her

[@stevenbatista5873]

She just needs to broaden her horizons when it comes to Hispanic foods from different parts lol

[@ni_hao_shailan]

It’s giving very uncultured!! I’m not Hispanic but I knew what most of these dishes were, I mean to each their own though. There was no personality or anything either, a very lukewarm video! She picked a cutie though🤷🏽‍♀️

[@majinboii2125]

Y’all sure this chick is latina wtf?

[@myathemango2936]

White passing

[@jonequamcwilsonsmith2817]

Lmfaoooooo " maybe we're not a match"

[@frizzzx86]

omg the way i was screaming at whoever this girl is in the first one!! who has never had platanos (bananas?!) or mofongo?!?! i was like POUR THE SAUCE. I am Ecuadorian and even I know. and what latino wouldn't normally eat empanadas/pastelitos??? every country literally has their own version. god, west coast latinos really dont eat outside their own culture, jfc.

[@sinistercitizen3061]

We most definitely do. There are just some people who don’t-just like anywhere.

[@kellygreengables3936]

The Plate to Date series is so fun!! Please continue it! The dishes in this one looked so good! But I wish the guys had interacted more. And if the dish was described to the girl. It can be hard to properly appreciate a food if you don't know how to eat it (like how she didn't pour the broth over the mofongo) or how it should taste/be made.

[@TheEarthGerm]

Due to the heavy garlic, Mofongo is really hit or miss with non Puerto Ricans. Should of gone with Reyenos with arroz con gandules. Everyone loves those.

[@Mr_and_Mrs_Seiler]

How does she not know what mofongo is or sweet plantain?? I’m 🇨🇴🇪🇨 & being from NY grew up eating & make to this day Puertorican food

[@kellygreengables3936]

Probably just different frames of reference. The girl in the video said that she's Mexican American. Mofongo is not a Mexican dish. And like the other commenter said, Pero Like is in California. The Puerto Rican population there is way smaller than in New York.

[@stephannymejia3694]

I completely 👍🏼agree as a colombian

[@Mr_and_Mrs_Seiler]

@@stephannymejia3694 👏🏼 Yes girl!

[@frizzzx86]

This is why ny is the best. We eat everything from everywhere.

[@zelayaah]

Second dish wins for sure. You can never go wrong with panes. 🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@TributesAndUnique]

How does she not know what Cola Champagne is? And the Salvadorian guy is the only that still wanted her after the reviews.

[@TributesAndUnique]

@@salvadoranpolarbear7584 They have a bunch of similar tasting drinks to that everywhere. It doesn’t have to be Salvadoran. And wtf does my comment have to do with Trump? 🤨

[@frizzzx86]

@Salvadoran PolarBear im ecuadorian and i know what cola champagne is. Do Mexicans not try other things outside their culture?

[@kellygreengables3936]

Some people just aren't adventurous with the type of food or drink that they consume. Just because she's Mexican doesn't mean she's going to know all about different foods from Latin America. And that's okay.

[@telltruth7027]

@@frizzzx86 I don’t know a single Ecuadorian dish, Mexico is a food vibe around the world. No one even knows anything about your tiny country 😂😂😂

[@comofue192]

I mean plátanos are bananas and pastelitos are empanadas

[@dreyes397]

For real. Ppl be too much

[@D.AGE.]

El Salvador for the Dub 🔥🔥

[@moemoney444]

This was painful to watch, no wonder it was only 8 mins 😂

[@rantsandfaves]

Where are the other parts if this is part 4?

[@telltruth7027]

Everyone is mad that the Mexican girl is more familiar with Mexican foods 😂😂😂😂😂

[@sinistercitizen3061]

More like shocked… Los Angeles country is a melting pot of Latinos, so it’s a little strange that she’s not familiar with other Latin American dishes even if she is Mexican.

[@arnaldomoran5877]

As a Dominican from NY, pastelito & empanada are interchangeable.

[@jessicali915]

For Salvadoreans, they're two different things. Pastelitos are made out of masa and usually have meat in them, served with curtido on the side. But empanadas are made out of platanos and have beans or leche inside with sugar sprinkled on top. Both are delicious but very different 😋

[@ririabz1393]

love this concept BUT 1. i found this particular girl a bit boring and dry 2. next time have all the guys in the same room interacting and watching her try the food

[@alezimmerli]

What a f?? Chocolate with empanadas argentinas?? BRO U HAVE NO IDEA! GRANDPA MUST BE UGGG

[@keyboardkween8744]

I'm actually fond of this lady. She reminds me of Christina Aguilera.

[@Bueller.Bueller.Bueller.]

Cute!

[@arturo6780]

AYE SOUTH EL MONTE !!!

[@paolam.c.3901]

Those are empanadas to me as well

[@missnat95]

Tito’s isn’t Peruvian 😬

[@calistadeltoro]

Omgg the second I said it, I was like wait… 😂 definitely my bad! But I’m glad to hear someone knows about Tito’s! The best in El Monte

[@KillingMoon_]

She's cute

[@mc1618]

la blanca 😂

[@Jay-mh3cp]

People are pissed that she is honest

[@stephannymejia3694]

The ignorance is what she was picking at the damn food instead of trying the whole thing

[@realbrownpride1]

lol non of that food looks appetizing.

[@coffee1207]

She's not experienced enough to appreciate food..

[@zuesq141]

giving food to non latiana cuz what how you not know what mofongo is smfh

[@hirynanasarian]

She is annoying 😂

[@HappyGoLuckyRayOfFcknSunshine]

She's very uncultured

[@dfbvgfdas]

next time put Calista del Toro don't put singer. itll make people wanna be like oh shi i should know who she is. but just sayin Singer. feels patronizing
