We need to talk about Food Trends (Round table discussion) April 2023

[@chicoloco7108]

The fact that Kush doesn't sugar coat things is really refreshing, he has a strong personality that makes him very likeable.

[@unlimitedx53]

I have to agree, we need more of Kush, he might be able to mostly replace James on camera, cause i think it s still off balance since James left

[@FloatingAmongTheCosmos]

James v2 he feels like.

[@tenakeefe6293]

More of these round tables please. So nice to see Slater joining in, and I love the fact that Kush pulls no punches. This was all about the food, without battles or pretentious ingredients. Loved it.

[@tohrurikku]

Everyone sitting at the table and talking like friends is really nice. It feels like we are apart of a conversation with everyone. It would be nice if you have more videos like this.

[@gailshaughnessey8914]

I love how a group of friends became business partners yet still seem to enjoy each others' company. Finding a work/life balance is difficult, yet you seem to have found a way. The food stuff is interesting - the friendship is inspiring!

[@andieluke1366]

Their chemistry and love for one another is what makes me rewatch soooo many of their episodes. They take the mickey out of each other, but clearly care for one another.

[@VineyardGHS]

You say this like to hang out after the show but if you watch their own social media and channels you know that they are just co-workers and they are not friends out of work

[@FlyingwithFire]

@@VineyardGHS they knew each other before sorted food. I imagine if you spend 8 hours a day with someone for a decade despite being friends you might spend time outside of work with other friends

[@PlumBerryCherries]

Agreed!!!!

@@FlyingwithFireI mean most of them have kids and other responsibilities.

[@rebeccajo-ann7494]

Thank you Slatter and Kush for joining in! This was an absolutely, amazing and fun video and its so nice to see you all so laid back and just hanging out. Don't get me wrong, your more pressured videos are amazing but this is a wonderful bonus. Keep up the hard work because we all appreciate you guys so much.

[@distractednessity]

I agree! I got into this channel with their Sorted food at the table series which was just them sitting around a table and chatting about the food they prepared for the group. It was so pleasant. I love this vibe.

[@supersullivan24]

I like the format, but I think the video title doesn't really fit what the video actually was.

[@CaMaMorro]

This format is great and I like the fact you’re including more members of your team in the last months. They pop in every now and again to enrich the experience with the ‘main cast’ if you like

[@katherinetusa181]

I love this new type! It feels like “old sorted” with big night out! Love love love

[@SortedFood]

Love to hear that. So glad you enjoyed it 🫶

[@jecoffey]

@sortedfood Combine that with big night in, make it a podcast, and I’d be a happy man.

The round table format is fantastic! Thank you all for always being genuine and sharing so much of yourselves all while helping all us “normals” up our games in the kitchen! Big hugs to all of you from across the pond ❤

[@TheTemptress13]

I love this idea. Plus it will be kind of cool to have it as a “yearbook” to go back and see what was popular and what your favorite things are each month. I think this is fantastic

[@monkinator]

wow right off the bat I did not expect to see Best Ever Food Review Show. I love that channel. Sonny is amazing at what he does, he's producing national geographic quality documentaries about the places he visits and they're absolutely fantastic. He shows respect to the people in the places he visits and is willing to try any food no matter how odd or strange it may be to a western audience.

[@tobubiify]

Sonny is an Incredible host and an incredible entertainer

[@sharintje1]

Loved this casual round the table chatting ❤And definitely want to see that 'making dog/cat food taste good' video!

[@LeeSki-i6j]

This kind of gives me like 'fridge cam' feels which I've missed. Love the shout out to local business, youtubers you watch, & the stories of worst kitchen nightmares. Hope we see more of this type of content. Also I don't know if it's just me but I also miss when you'd dress up when doing challenges (not just for Halloween either), they were always entertaining.

[@FlaimDaze]

I love this type of format. Obviously one of the biggest draws to the channel is your friendships and banter, and this casual pub type discussion format truly highlights your personalities and interactions in the context of food exploration. I love that you guys keep exploring different video styles and trying new ideas. Keep up the great work!

[@magsimags]

i love this format. it gives me old school sorted vibes. kinda reminds me of big night in. probably cause you're at that same table. a big part of why i watch you guys is the dynamic between you and your different personalities. it's almost like you're a character driven show. yes the content and formats are cool but mostly i like watching you guys just chat and banter about food. and that comes through really well in this video. and it's a nice change of pace from your regular videos

[@sofia.midviola]

I'm a midwife, and I can't stop laughing at "survival juice" 😂 I don't know if I'd use it in prenatal classes though

Doooooo it. :D I refer to mine as 'the house white"

[@gconnor18]

[@Uncle_Smidge]

At my hospital we send in/out donor breast milk and I'm ABSOLUTELY calling it Survival Juice now 🤣

[@tastymedleys]

Kush being absolutely savage is a joy to behold lmao. A lot of the time people try to be more diplomatic when trying such things, included Sorted, and then there's Kush holding absolutely nothing back. Much appreciated 😂

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Your Friday updates always make this day so much better!

[@SortedFood]

Love to hear it!

[@mihalyaron9730]

I love this concept! It’s just the boys getting together having fun and talking about food and stuff related to food they appreciate. I really felt like I was just at the next table at a pub and was listening to these guys having fun next to m. Would really love to see more of the sorts, great job!

[@dizzielizzie9989]

Love this format, it’s like a Friday end of week mates chat in a pub. So good to see more of Kush & Slater..more please.👏🏼

[@bitsy00005]

My favorite family food story is about a Thanksgiving I wish I had seen. My partner's great-grandmother brought out the turkey on a tray and dropped it on the floor in full view of the guests. She picked it up and took it back into the kitchen. After a few minutes she came back out with a turkey on a tray. As she carefully placed it on the table she said, "Thankfully, I made two." Everyone chose to believe her.

[@Sophie703]

I love that! 10 second rule! 😅

[@Zoetical]

My worst kitchen nightmare (well my dads really) for new years. He was making the Heston Bluememthal popping cherry trifle, this includes a 15 egg camomile custard. He'd left it in the sink in an ice bath to cool it as ran out of workspace. Along came my brother who proceeded to wash his hands in it

[@SortedFood]

Stop it, that’s hilarious 😂

[@smk6736]

Oh my GOSH! 🤣🤣🤣 Is your brother alive still?

have been watching sorted videos literally since 2012 and I’m obsessed with this format! it makes you feel like you’re at a bar talking about food with your foodie mates and i love it, well done guys❤️

It's so good to see the other two chefs, they're such a good addition to the show!

Once again, you boys have made a Friday even better. This round table was great. I would love more cooking horror stories. I also enjoyed all of your suggestions.

[@SortedFood]

So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 😁

[@RichardCalder67]

Best Ever Food Review Show and Sorted are far and away my two favourite food KZbin channels. The level of production and the content on both is fantastic. I love that I can access these things without worrying about some corporate suit cancelling and ruining it for me.

[@Twitchi]

So glad you highlighted Best Ever Food Review Show, Sonny is a legend and deserves all the recognition he can get. Some of the topics he covers are not liked by KZbin and as such are not shared as widely as they should be!!

[@garrettanderson4392]

Looooove the video format with it being casual and just a round table setting.

[@g_boardy378]

I love when you get more chefs involved! An all chef pass it on would be amazing

[@OneWeekTime]

I LOVE this idea.

I LOVED this concept! Dedicated videos are fun, but it's also really nice to have these diverse topics come to the table and see everyone's reaction. Genuinely feels like you're hanging with a bunch of mates chatting about food. I'd love to see more of these. Well done!

As someone who sweats almost as much as Ben. He's gonna need a few because once you sweat through them you start dripping. Also my GF has a cinnamon allergy and I've been trying to find substitutes! Allergy substitute videos would be awesome! As for disaster stories! First time making home made pancakes from scratch I used fridge cold eggs and when they hit the melted butter and it solidified my brain went "WELP THOSE SCRAMBLED" and I tossed it out... only to realize minutes later it was the butter....

A couple of my friends have a cinnamon allergy; we generally use allspice as the cinnamon replacement.

Sorted always comes through when im looking for a video to watch. Thanks for always keeping the quality content up.

[@WondrousPurple]

The low-key, relaxed, casual tone of the roundtable nicely balances some of the more hectic, energetic videos. Best section: Shining a spotlight on small businesses that you like and use (in this case, Bethnal Green Fish). I like it when people pay their respects to others. Class. Plus, nice to hear how the business operates.

[@effekt4]

My favourite thing in food this month? I spent some time and energy creating a kangaroo patty that cooks like a beef burger. Then experimented with 22 different native Australian herbs and spices to create my own sauces. Even though im an Australian Aboriginal man, i was completely unaware of the amazing array of flavours that we have on our own land. Things like Cinnamon myrtle, Aniseed myrtle, Native thyme and native basil. Flavours that i get from bottles and bags imported, flavours that we already have here and have had for thousands of years. Ive decided that i want to try my hardest to promote the vast array of ingredients that we have available right here on our own land, and get people to try them for themselves..

[@vickiephelps5169]

If you could build a webpage to sell aboriginal spices and herbs for around a dollar an ounce, I would be all over it! I would love to sample the traditional flavors of your people!

[@tsram]

Loved this!! Such a breath of freshness with the causal environment and more faces!

[@jamesskrabak7963]

[@okJay__]

This format is brilliant. Exactly what we want to see from such a likeable group of people. A monthly video like this, say the last Friday of each month would be so good to see. Perhaps even adding another seat for the viewers so that you talk about the most common trend from us each month too? Really lovely video, all. More food talk is always good. I always tell everyone who will listen that this channel is the greatest thing for food and falling in love with it. This format feels like a really good entry point for new viewers.

I love this new format and would love to see more of it! It’s really quite useful to hear the chef’s opinions and suggestions about a wide range of food topics. I really, really wish that we still had a fishmonger and butcher here in Annapolis! My mom said that there used to be several, but as the big supermarkets came in, they went out of business 😢 I’m sure that there’s something local, but am willing to bet that it’s only for restaurants and professional kitchens 😕
