We React to The Internet's VILLAIN Nikocado Avocado! SYWGF EP. 40

[@mikelchinacat6326]

Frenchy is looking like a 80s Miami coke dealer here

[@WonderLady]

He’s looking sexier lately.

[@WonderLady]

frenchy is a total cutie

[@iamtheintern]

My first thought was Tommy from Vice City lmfao

[@drunkhas]

LMAO, frenchie casually dropping he's been recognized as one of the top chefs of the wrold while giving ZERO fucks about Nikocado, what a fucking MOOD!

[@esotericVideos]

I'm with Frenchie, that Nick stuff went on like 90% too long. Nick was transparently performative the whole time and it was a chore to listen to people pretend he is interesting. The fake out was legitimately interesting, but again his speech was a self indulgent chore to get through. Frenchie, I feel your pain. I hope Brian doesn't torture you as much next time. Stay strong, brother 💪

[@martinlaukkanen1652]

Nikocado did in fact start as a vegan KZbinr and change tack, he was also over 400 lbs at his heaviest. He also has an only fans.

[@SYWGFpodcast]

😳

[@mulldrifterz6469]

Frenchie's look makes me wanna play GTA Vice City.

[@SYWGFpodcast]

😂

[@matttarling1751]

Cat is called Maneki-neko

[@glenncain]

oh in chinese that's Zhao Cai Mao. translated to Fortune-Attracting Cat

[@11boxers]

Been watching you guys for a couple weeks and I can’t stop love listening to yall. Might be coming to New York next year and definitely stopping by both your restaurants !

[@SYWGFpodcast]

Can't wait to see ya at the restaurants

[@soulphoenix1885]

Did everyone forget that Nick made Stephanie Soo scared for her life? He even wears a panda mask in his reveal video, the same mask Stephanie's husband wears to hide his identity.

[@Ricksteady8]

When he took off the mask he was giving major Paul Reubens crack PSA vibes. If you haven't seen it or don't know look it up. 😂

[@NinjAsylum]

I have a feeling Frenchy is very similar to the Chef that trained me. An absolute blast to work for when he's in a good mood and a total nightmare when things arent going right. Either way it would be a good time.

[@doreanbeattie2742]

According to google, the cat is called a beckoning cat or lucky cat!

[@daltonmckee4788]

Maneki-neko

[@rarrie9123]

I don't believe he was the villian here. People were cheering him on, donating so he would keep eating. He made money off the real villains that encouraged him to eat and get fat/sick. It shows how horrible humanity is these days. People were getting him to eat to his death but he is the villain here? I think everyone needs to take a hard look in the mirror today and ask yourselves wtf happened to you. He exposed us for who we really are

[@nates2]

I have a feeling you don't know the whole Nick story...

[@rarrie9123]

@@nates2 So nobody encouraged him to eat? Ok thanks for the misunderstanding...

[@rexford9719]

I agree. I think he played a character. I think people loved it. No matter what it was all disgusting. It highlights how we love schadenfreude.

[@nates2]

​@@rarrie9123when did I say that? I understand you want to win an argument but please use what was said.

[@WonderLady]

Yeah….uhm…..he could have exercised, spaced his shows, etc. BEARDEATSFOOD eats more…much much more

[@luminousfaedust]

The cat is called a Maneki-neko but like, everyone calls it a lucky cat xD

[@njcafaro]

Frenchy, the open shirt , chest hair, gold chain nestled in the chest hair..woooo 🥵 what are you trying to do to us!?!😂 Chef Brian...where is your button down shirt?!?! 👍😂

[@SYWGFpodcast]

😂

[@SinEmerald]

I've only ever known it as 招き猫 (lit. "beckoning cat"). I've never really thought about what the official term is in English. Also, on the topic of the video, I'd like to say that I've never actually looked at Nikocado before. I've seen him referenced in a few other things, but never cared about looking at what he actually did. Interesting that he actually was worth something other than being a fat KZbinr.

[@TheListofMrRaguso]

Petition to call the SYWGF reaction videos "maillard reaction videos" cuz they are so tastey

[@MrRudyc85]

I am never a fan of Nico but what he pulled off was genius. Gotta admit.

[@MakooWallinen]

You can do the same technique with a cast iron skillet, heat it one the stove, assemble the pizza on the heat, and then shove the entire thing into a preheated oven.

[@jaf1x67]

Great podcast guys, Looking forward to the next one!

[@SYWGFpodcast]

Thank you!

[@HierTuin]

Home made pesto is fantastic. I've got to try it on home made pizza now.

[@CeliaHakusho]

You should review some Hainanese chicken recipes next as a series. And then eat it with Frenchie!

[@xxoneshot0752]

Brian you should definitely do a reaction to the movie "Burnt", would love to see you and Frenchie's opinion on it.

[@darkastaroth1]

I love Frenchy’s necklace, where did you get it at I really want it.

[@hugopekaar5629]

Bro I got hit with like 20 ads watching this 🤣

[@etienne869]

Hi Guys, just so you know it's not a fisherman's pie, its a British Fish Pie. Google Marco Pierre White ( Gordon Ramsey's mentor) he'll show how a real fish pie is made. Always 3 types of fish and prawns (or as you call it shrimp) Thanks for this channel, always enjoying it from South Africa Cheers!!

[@antzuprising]

I think the next person you need to react to is George Motts: Burger Scholar!! If Guga is an expert in steaks then George is an expert in burgers!!

[@sallyostling]

When my kids were little, neighbors of ours would walk around the neighborhood in micheal meyers and the hockey mask Jason silently just to be a holes and try to scare the kids.

[@SorvahrSpahr]

Amazing vid as always. The sound was super low, though, had to crank mine all the way up to 100% xD Thank you for the amazing content, though!

[@SYWGFpodcast]

Thank YOU for tuning in!

[@QuakerPiper]

Americans when confronted with a centuries-old recipe from the civilised world: "bwahaha that looks weird bring me my KFC bucket"

[@Chamomileable]

Frenchy looking absolutely fluorescent today. I have to squint.

[@caring-assoul_]

50:47 Brian calling ‘Coming to America’ “Welcome to America” 😅 🤦🏻‍♂️ .

[@danielpaquette4826]

Such a dark episode today. The Myers bit was tops.

[@StnrVibe]

The french dish is called Poulet en Vessie. My 5 years of learning french has paid off 😂

[@KUsery42]

La poule au pot, no? That’s what I was taught the term was. Whole ass poached/braised chicken in a (Dutch oven/ cast iron) pot. iirc Correct me if I’m wrong. All I know is don’t know nothing. lol eta: En papillote but with bladder? 🧐🤣 Eta: shit, you’re right. My bad. Vessie is “bladder”. Technically correct is the best correct, I guess. It’s been a while in my defense.

[@StnrVibe]

@@KUsery42 It could have multiple names, that's just what my French Teacher in HS taught it as. It could also have different names depending on the region- I havent used my french knowledge in a few years 😂💛

[@TheWhiskeyDrinker]

Put a darker or black fabric behind Frenchy's sign so it shows up better.

[@Shyyrn]

50:46 hey, shout-out Frenchie for getting the Vader quote right! 😂 True fan there

[@Kinkajou1015]

I can never respect Bobby Flay for his performance on Iron Chef long long ago. He was acting a villain, he'll remain a villain in my view.

[@Gremlack13]

Papa John’s actually proofs their dough over a few days. Small balls come in. They need to be left out to proof and grow for a long chunk of time (I don’t remember anymore), and are meant to be taken out at least an hour before use for it to warm toward room temp. But it gets too soft and gassy to make a pretty pizza in my experience.

[@h3llo0cto]

Thanks for pointing this out. I managed a Papa Johns for a little while before the toxic culture was too much to handle. Dough delivery=day 1. Dough is good to use starting day 3 (ideally day 4) and questionable at day 7. After that it's thrown away. Newer dough can be "pushed" by pulling it out early before opening and resting it by the hot oven. Normally dough is pulled a little before it's planned to be used to get it to room temp. Proofing the dough too early can make it gooey and hard to work with. Baking cold dough is possible, but it may not cook as nicely as you'd like. Now this was several years ago and before I left, quality wasn't as much of a priority anymore. Can't speak to other places, but most chains take even less care with their dough than PJ's does, or used to. There are grocery store frozen pizzas that are better, imo.

[@SYWGFpodcast]

Thanks for clarifying that! I shouldn’t have assumed but I do know $1 slice places use lots of yeast for a fast rise.

[@mikelee8937]

No more middle finger light to offer counterpoint to Frenchy? Lol, that's a shame

[@milyryan6028]

I don't use bread or 00 flour but I do a poolish and let that sit for at least 6 hours. We don't order pizza anymore since my dough is so much better.

[@Gremlack13]

I made a mediocre shepards pie the other day. It was decently tasty, but would’ve been better if I had a star tip piping bag to make the mashed potatoes fancier!! And of if I had beef broth instead of chicken broth. Don’t know what I had in the pantry and failed there.

[@joebreau1967]

I’m with Frenchy I could care less and never heard of him!

[@noxelohim]

Makes almost 10 million dollars "(in 8 years)I don't make any money". Meanwhile ppl are struggling on 20k or less per year. Sorry.. no sympathy here.

[@jamiesuejeffery]

I watch three competitive eaters regularly. What little I know about their personal lives is that between the big eating challenges they all do a combination of fasting (seriously, eating 10,000 calories at one time? That is nearly a week of food!) is that they do some sort of minimal caloric intake and fasting combined with insane workouts. For example, "Erik the Electric" runs marathons, does super triathlons, and works out daily. "Beard Meets Food" does a lot of workouts and then in between eats mostly yogurt and fruits and veg. That is why they are skinny. Is it healthy? I'm no dietitian, but I'm going to go with no.

[@videovoidtv]

Ozempic is a hell of a drug…

[@WonderLady]

It’s not permanent

[@phoenix1977]

now i have never seen a Nikocado Avocado video in my life although i did hear of him last year. made me realise that certain content is just idiotic. but if he planned this out for years and made content for 2 years in advance, then i have to admit that that is a level of genius and dedication very few can match

[@TheShinobi890]

He made his choice and went the easy route and gave into it. It’s what happens when you sell yourself for that easy fast money. All he had to do was just eat and watch it come in. Nothing is worth damaging your body that much

[@pockyhunter187]

So he was a vegan mukbanger in 2016-2017? Renounced the vegan community and stirred up drama. Then went craaazzzy and gained a load of weight. He's basically known for his crazy behavior and causing drama with others.

[@AwesomeFish12]

He looked 100x more healthy when he was vegan.

[@yongsunwoo185]

jīnmāo ("golden cat") in chinese

[@notchipotle]

he still needs to monitor his heart closely, the weight is reversable but the damage isn't lol

[@TheKegtwo]

I thank myself for not knowing a thing about Nikocado. I hope that he continues to be a non-entity. I can't stand his psychology.

[@banninghamma]

SunnyV2 predicted the future. Or the future keeps giving SunnyV2 tips?

[@hollieginoza7935]

Whoa... Frenchy looking fit.

[@carlosmdc9069]

So does the 10% club still 10%?

[@SYWGFpodcast]

As of today… 11%!!!

[@m4tt_314]

It's an OO flour? 👀 There's a colloquial naming “dvounulka” in Czech which means double-zero :D it's known as 00 (two zeroes) here 👀 _edit_: oh, never mind :D I'm a pepege, it's a prononciation of 00 🤣

[@charlesr.8159]

Going on this hype train, you should check Matt Stonie, or some competitive eaters that have a good physique.

[@The_Badseed]

Yes life is hard when your job is being a KZbinr and you are a multi-millionaire. He made over $200,000 just on his skinny reveal video

[@mulldrifterz6469]

I am sad you did Nikocado before Ordinary Sausage :(.

[@SYWGFpodcast]

Don’t you worry buddy

[@zezzy3]

It’s called a Neko cat

[@Fire-n-Ice]

He needs to go to a pysch ward and get some intensive therapy. He fails to realize that if he doesn't like something he is doing, then he doesn't have to do it and can walk away without owning anybody anything. Does he not have family or close friends that care about his well being? This is just sad.

[@kojihu3337]

i do wanna get fat

Yay I'm third in here to watch this poop show that I love

He made lots of money, discovered that cocaine is more addictive than food, became skinny and talks nonsense because he is High.
