[@BestEverFoodReviewShow]

BESTYS! Please Tweet this video link to Andrew Zimmern! His Twitter name is @andrewzimmern Maybe if a thousand people Tweet him he'll watch it. Hopefully he'll have a sense of humor about it. :p Thanks Andrew for all the great content and travel/food inspiration. Cheers mate.

[@knightsofshames]

Love Andrew Zimmern

[@electricmonk71]

Done!

[@ngandang96]

congratz he tweeted abt u:)

[@pianosidechat]

ok, who is that girl who is so experienced in stinky tofu. I need to know...

[@annlee7816]

Hear's ur winner and the new king 👑 of weird foods.

[@darkdarkyday]

Sorry Sonny, but I like your show way more than Zimmern's. There's a lot more respect in the way you present the foods in your show. I wish you way more success in the future.

[@hertzfernandez6687]

you make andrew Zimmerman look bad and you both are from Minnesota.

[@noonemate3616]

Ziggs his brain switched off

[@annwong5425]

Waaaay more respect. The other guy sounds condescending at times.

[@gihanfernando9239]

He's following Andrew's footsteps and trying to beat him.. not a good intention.. actually I lost the interest I had in the beginning on best ever food review show..

[@raceface_m2579]

+Gihan Fernando I don't think that's necessarily what's intended. I guess we can all interpret what he means differently. Though I do agree that he is following in Zimmern's footsteps, he has his own character; The two will constantly get compared to each other since they're both eaters of anything. This video is more like an homage to Zimmern in my opinion. Like and respect both of them.

[@MediaSubliminal]

If you only knew... I was a big Andrew Zimmern fan too. But after watching so many of your shows, I have often thought, "Andrew Zimmern ain't got nothing on this guy!" And then I see this episode. Looks like I was right.

[@bambityusoff4198]

me too.... a decade ago... Andrew Zimmern was my favourite because no one else produce a rare bizarre food review. today .. i'm into wien's and sonny or daddy's.. but andrew still a legend for me

[@tristenshumway6999]

I had the same thoughts! Lol👍👍

[@ALLmasked]

solid fan of zimmern and now this lovely dude ever since viewing this clip. he exceeded zimmern for me after more episodes. particularly when he did tribal eats.

[@thatshittysnarefromSTanger]

If you watch mark wiens, he did an episode with Andrew. And I think the guys a jerk off camera.

[@espanican]

He definatly crushed andrew zimmers

[@maggiechan33]

Sonny's description of the stinky tofu is ABSOLUTELY EPIC. He alluded to the gas quality + toenail stench, in such an honest, innocent manner, like a sweet little child, that you can't help but like him.

[@kdigiacomo]

Shaky camera work means smiles from everyone, putting the smiles on everyone episode again and again. *The odd intro hiding thing cracked me up a lot!

[@brianchen3444]

the best thing i love about you is that you respect every food, keep up the good work

[@Migzter05]

Andrew was one of the first food travel show hosts I actually watched on regular weekly basis back in the day. Now I have BEFRS and Sonny for my weekly youtube food vlog cravings. Life goes on. 😁

[@jay-arbaluyan9745]

"I'm not going to lie, it does taste a little like farts, but like in the best way possible" - I died on this. hahahaha

[@papercat2599]

that’s the best way to describe it tho. Once you gets used to stinky tofu, you question whether you dislike fart or not....

[@doel89]

@@papercat2599 it depends on who's fart .. If its your own... Yea take a wiff

[@muddundee]

Fanny fart perhaps?

[@umairjqureshi]

When he said best possible way....all i could imagine was a fart that came after you had whole lot of Texas style barbecue and brisket with a side of mashed potatoes and fried mushrooms, some falafel and shuwarma with fresh mint and cucumber salad and dogh and a whole southern fried chicken with hash browns....and a large soda to wash it all down and a nice scoop of mango, strawberry, gum arabic and pistachio ice cream topped with some roasted almonds, pecans and gold foil pieces....hmmmm....an extremely delicious meal might produce a fart worthy if this comment....

[@sylarlao1201]

Im watching this on the 1st day of 2020. It made my day.

[@SuperZytoon]

I thought Zimmern was the kings of strange and different foods worldwide. Then, I found you. There is no going back!

[@csims1979]

TOTALLY Agree💪💋

[@tristenshumway6999]

Amen!!👍

[@thomaslin8273]

YO, BIG SHOUT OUT TO SONNY, as a Taiwanese growing up in Taiwan, u have my full respect bro, not only are you really going hard on the foods but u also show great respect to them. Keep up with the videos, much love.

[@ashleyzviitei]

Andrew, Sonny and Gordon Ramsey make the best food and travel shows. RIP Antony Bourdain. So entertaining in terms of food and diverse cultures. I love these guys' raw, no frills approach on their shows.

[@grantgonzales9366]

Truly the best food review show. Keep up the great great work! Much love from the Philippines

[@harshadsoman4848]

"It tastes like farts...but in the best way possible!" Suuuure.

[@janedudynsky5067]

You rock besty. I always loved Andrew Zimmerman TV bizarre food show, but to tell you the truth you're the best. I really really hate stinky tofu, but you've proven it once again that you're not afraid to try anything. Bravo! 😊👍👏👏👏👏

As a Taiwanese, seeing your respect and efforts to understand Taiwanese food, I think you are one of the best men, brave!

[@RAZRfreak]

Things Andrew Zimmern can't eat: -durian -oatmeal -walnut -spam -raw cookie dough -khlii - moroccan preserved meat -coriander -kocho - ethiopian fermented false banana bread I love Andrew Zimmer, I respect his work, and I've watched almost all of his show's episodes, but he can't even stomach some of the most common of foods. You're the much better Bizarre Foods guy.

[@bushdo64]

stinky tofu is not common

[@JackMeoff46]

RAZRfreak Spam? seriously? Tell me again how this guy is “the king of bizarre foods.Spam is the most bland thing i’ve ever had

[@senjasontana1459]

I don't know who he is but you can't be a food vlogger if you can't even eat Durian. LOL

[@punitkk7696]

Zimmern didn't even eat pani puri in India while besty feasted on it

[@Trenz0]

He can't eat cilantro? Holy damn that eliminates a lot of food across the world

[@DeviantMotives]

I have always loved Andrew. He was one of the first people to be honest on TV about food tasting like crap. And he did it in such a polite and funny way.

[@Vincenttung14]

Major props to you for trying it out. Your humor and fearlessness made a big fan!!

[@BestEverFoodReviewShow]

Yay, thank you! :)

[@shadows4419]

I used to watch Andrew Zimmer food show , and frankly I enjoyed it. However once I started watching your show all other shows paled in comparison.Sonny , you have taken this show to a whole different level. Your sense of humor , your funny comments and the faces that you make have made me smile even in the face of a most heartbreaking event in my life. Don’t ever change , your open hearted approach and your willingness to experience food from different cultures , and your ability to make people comfortable adds a new dimension to your show. I love your show.

[@normanmendoza315]

Man, out of all the food youtubers, you're the most vivid in describing grossness! the toenail description really grossed me out and the "mouth filling up with a fart quality of air"! WTH!

[@MissAmanda0515]

Shut up!! Sonny is awesome!!

[@fattit7598]

you're not the boss of me That's a compliment, it wasn't supposed to be a diss lol

[@reenthronedprof]

I assumed that your partner , the camera man, was really laughing as the motion of the camera got unsteady. Can't blame him tho. I am laughing myself just watching you, Sonny my man!!!

[@jjryan1352]

Gee what gave it away? The shaky camera part, or the part where he says "cameraman compose yourself"?

[@luckydog8796]

I'm Taiwanese and I just went there yesterday. I can't stop laughing about how you described the smell like the ripping-off toe nail! GREAT JOB!

[@beraiyen123]

Its called TOE JAM here in South Africa, and all respect to who ever can eat something that smells like toe jam🤢🤮

i thought it was accurate when he said it's like you're eating fart, but in the best way possible

[@dmcraig91]

"With Andrew Zimmerman...... from 2007” 😂😂😂

[@MT19907]

"It taste like fart in the best way possible". Only Sonny on youtube can actually make that sound pretty awesome to try now!

[@Merlin_Price]

Gotta be one of the best. The look on Sonny's face at the end as he begs Zimmern for a spot is priceless.

[@RiazUddin-sk3uw]

Andrew must be proud of you. All hail the "New Master"!

[@BestEverFoodReviewShow]

I can hope.

[@ketfoen]

Andrew Zimmern took me to the food wall to try new thing, Sonny's youtube channel took me over that wall and now I am stuffing my face with all kinds of delicious food I wouldn't know existed, ty Sonny 👍

[@Nthouse12]

You, my friend, will be going far - just a gut feeling. props on another great episode.

[@joewahrjamespanuncia613]

You were right. Look at him now.

[@nozrep]

a “gut” feeling. well played! hahaha and yes, look at him now! i am here because i saw him on Joe Rogan’s show!

[@JohnWHoff]

After Sonny swallowed that first bite I realized HE'S GOING TO DO IT!!! HE'S GOING TO BEAT THE MASTER!!!!

[@liznguyen873]

After having not watched bizarre fpods for years, I literally just binge watched bizarre foods last night. No offence to Andrew, but he couldn't even eat Durian lol. Andrew is great with food that appears disgusting, but tastes fine, but he doesnt have true multicultural taste buds like you do Sonny! Gotta admit, watching the way you pursed your lips, it almost seemed like your gag reflex would take over, but no!! Your are a true man of the world 😆

[@bonsly21]

[@bonsly21]

Liz Nguyen i cant? T.T

[@宋祖維]

4:11 you can see him shudder before the first bite lol

[@andwander1206]

Zimmern tries to be a humble and open minded guy, instead, he often comes off as a pretentious and condescending goofball. You're more deserving of a show than he is. In fact what you're doing on KZbin is much more entertaining than anything he's done on the Travel Channel.

[@MissAmanda0515]

I agree!

[@Lavenuesexe]

Agreed!! Many times over!!

[@brey3649]

Travel channel doesn’t deserve him. I’d rather him keep his freedom on KZbin than to stoop down to travel channels level

[@limjennching4281]

Do you like stinky tofu? Random girl: Very really like....

[@cynthiaaaaam]

I've been slacking on your videos Sonny, life's been busy. I'm back to binge! Lol

[@frankgary957]

Wish I could give 2 big thumbs up. Andrew was also defeated by Durian...should try it next

[@summeronio9751]

Sonny likes durian

[@csabo1725]

Not all durian are alike

[@herlanczar]

where are your eyebrows sonny?

[@ajibsupit4481]

The tofu made it fell off

[@sambathlim2580]

It's gone

[@johnchase4408]

Yeah. WTF is up with that ?

[@rocketboostjump]

Fun fact Andrew Z. was an inspiration for Sonny to do a food channel. So without Andrew there would be no Sonny.

[@nozrep]

yes and that is indeed what Sonny himself said, at the very beginning of the video. Yes, fun fact!

[@rocketboostjump]

@@nozrep some are comparing both them and saying Sonny is so much better than Andrew. They should appreciate both of them for their likeness and differences.

This is one of ur best feats. Thumbs up!

Thanks homie.

Love how you do the narration with the serious tone and walk around with your arms accentuating the speech... Very Rod Serling or Crime Documentary like even!!!

[@Redbird1504]

Bizarre Foods and No Reservations were my fav shows forever.

[@dorabarkley6335]

Thank you for your homage to Andrew Zimmer ( still love him ) but I think the difference is you allowed yourself to adjust to the smell and then proceeded to ingest - and I’m totally in love with you 🤗

[@Thelonius_Magee]

I’ve watched zimmern for years, you for only a few months but I love your sense of humor and your ability to make an attention grabbing 10 to 20 min episode. Wish we could see a collab with Anthony bourdain RIP

It taste fart on the best way possible? LMAO..🤣🤣.

Andrew Zimmern is the benchmark , GOLD standard and my all time hero- not only for creating an industry of so many food bloggers like this fella...but also as a human being with golden heart...so NO COMPARISON with the creator...apart from that, you aren’t too bad..just don’t sound too arrogant bud

Big fan of bizarre food show. Now you are my second favorite Minnesotan man. Couple of weeks watching your show and I am already in love with your show.

[@khinweepang]

I think it's the sulphurous / savoury smell and taste. Zimmern seems especially averse to it. He couldn't even eat durian. Stinky tofu acceptability tends to be correlated with durian acceptability.

[@andrewbonadio1397]

Two of the best with humor! Instead of over acting faces amd comments before even tasting the food.

[@jenazana2685]

"it's like when u rip-off a toenail, and then u smell it and u like - ahhh it's not quite good, but i have to keep smelling it: .... damn i died from laughing!

[@pannachaw9492]

I was wanted to try, since I saw Andrew and You tried, so I bought a package from an Asian Grocery store, but the smell was soooooooo strong through the package, I had to put it back in the fridge. Bless everyone who can eat this thing & I'll take your words for it.

[@monicastenberg4801]

SONNY: "I'm not going to lie, it does taste a little like farts, but like in the best way possible" ... 😂 😂 😂 😂 "There's something shockingly satisfying about it. I can't quite put my finger on it. I LIKE IT! " "You know what it's like? It's like when you rip off a toenail" .....🤮
