Taste Testing STREET FOOD from Around the World

In Mike's defense, most of the Caribbean countries have similar fritters made from salted fish. Here in Trinidad and Tobago, it's called saltfish accra

[@KenS1267]

I've had the same basic dish on at least 4 different islands/nations in the Caribbean. How you'd get one specific one over any of the others I have no idea. I didn't even know they had specific names. I always just called them salt fish fritters.

[@trinkim]

I came to say this .. I was yelling THATS ACCRA! At the screen 😂

[@RadioactiveKat787]

I saw it in the thumbnail and thought "those are bacalaitos" from Puerto Rico. Essentially codfish fritters but if you translate the word literally it's "little codfish".

Egyptian here! the kebda dish is usually made using beef liver as that's what most people have access to. we also use normal breadcrumbs just because it's easier to find😅. Enjoyed with some local bread (eish baladi) and a tahini dip and you got yourself the best meal! I'm surprised by how well you nailed down that dish cuz I could guess it just from the way it was plated. thanks for the amazing video as always!

As a Czech, this dish was very confusing to me. Liver (usually pork liver) is very common and traditional here. Frying things in breadcrumbs (meat, cheese, vegetables) is also a very common and traditional technique here. And yet I've never even heard of liver prepared this way!

[@TheBT]

Ha, I got Egypt. It was from one word ‘Buffalo’ Water Buffalo are not a staple in the Middle East, nor in North Africa. However the exception to the Rule is Egypt, Nile is a great place to raise them.

[@aveekbh]

Good logic...

[@chandrawong449]

@@aveekbh Funny, I got thrown off because of the exact same word. I was thinking buffalo/bison native to North America and nothing else about the dish made sense in that area!

[@colbunkmust]

That's not really true, there have been large populations of water buffalo in Mesopotamia, going back to 2500 BC.

[@TheBT]

@colbunkmust See, here's the problem. You are assuming that the situation 4500 years ago is still true today. Modern day Iraq doesn't use buffalo in its cuisine. Of course it would have been in mesopotamia, that's how the animals reached the west, but it didn't last. Honestly the influence Italy had on Egyptian cuisine probably kept buffalo as part of it. If you go to buffalo meat, rather than just water buffalo, wiki page it gives a list of the countries where it is part of their diet and the only middle Eastern country listed is Egypt.

[@kitherit]

When he mentioned buffalo, I immediately thought of water buffalo as well! I am not as familiar with that part of the world, so my guess was more towards Pakistan. 😅

[@vwvw4]

Jamie's reaction to Philippines being right is well worth watching. I was way off in guessing the buffalo liver dish as didn't consider water buffalo.

I felt so badly for Mike, but dang, well done Jamie!!! He absolutely STORMED it this time! I would love it if you guys would include maps showing where it came from, and where their guesses were in relation to it. I've started to pull up a world map when I watch this, so I can pinpoint my own guesses. It'd be great to have more of a visual within the actual video to show their guesses, though! PS: I was excited that I got Jamaica spot on!! I've never seen any of these dishes, but it was the addition of Scotch Bonnet that nailed it for me! Though I was a bit thrown off by the origin of the cod. LOL

i was just hit with the realization i've been watching you lot since near the beginning-- that's half my life by now! thanks for all your hard work!

Pinoy here. Loved that you featured Magic Water, though its a relatively new concoction even in Manila. Its previous iterations were colored drinks, also called "Palamig" which basically means "something cold," which are sweet flavoured waters with jellies or sago. Flavours could include coconut, mango and even strawberry.

[@tburgess3426]

The banana flavor surprised me. I remembered coconut or mago being much more common, but if it's a newer flavor that makes more sense.

[@timothyleriche4213]

The fish is also very likely from Newfoundland as they once traded salt cod for rum. So much so the Newfoundland tradition of getting “screeched in” is done with a Newfoundland staple of Jamaican rum.

[@fogandbread]

Yes! I was just going to comment this. We have a long history of trade.

[@shadowslashful]

As a filipino, hearing it pronounced "Hay-lo Hay-lo" was understandable, but threw me for a loop. Glad you guys tried it, though! If you guys look at it again in the future, it's pronounced "Ha-lo ha-lo" ("ha"like the laughing "ha ha ha")

@Sorted As you're always looking for spice blends from different places you might want to include "vadouvan" in one of the games. An Indo-French curry masala. The French version of UK "Curry Powder". Great with fish or root veg especially, but used in many dishes & would confuse the guessers no end.

[@SortedFood]

Ooooh interesting, thanks for the suggestion :)

[@danutagajewski3330]

I've just recently discovered vadouvan and have started using it in a lot of my cooking, thanks to an Angela Hartnett chicken recipe. Love the smoky flavour that it imparts.

That previous cultivar of banana that artificial banana was based on is the Gros Michel. There are ongoing efforts to breed resistance to Panama disease, a fungal infection that's highly contagious, into Gros Michels, including at least one project to hybridize them with Cavendish bananas (which are resistant to Panama disease), but as far as I know nobody's gotten to large-scale production capability yet. 15:17 Someone should tell Mike that bananas originated in Southeast Asia.

[@ElJosher]

Being from Puerto rico the street food from the Dominican Republic seem extremely similar. I’ve never seen it made with fried cassava here in PR, but I instantly knew this had to be a dish from the spanish speaking Caribbean and Central American region, based on a few things. Ketchup mayo and mustard which is american influence, picadillo (the ground beef mixture) a very traditional dish from latam countries, and cassava a native and commonly eaten tuber from the region. My first thought was DR, so I got it right 😂.

I feel the need to comment 😂 First dish, you know them as Stampn/Go? When Jamie said Fish, I immediately knew they were also known as HushPuppies. in Southern USA fritters made with salt cod, made into fritters and fed to the dogs to keep them satisfied and quiet, hence the name hush puppies . I learnt about them some years ago and started experimenting with the concept using smoked fish here in the UK, and they are delicious and kept my children quiet 😂 I give myself an invisible point for recognising what the dish was before Jamie and Mike did, without even tasting 😅

yup the Gros Michel banana was the globally most popular banana up until the 60's when a fungus that they were susceptible to came about and killed most of them off, since most bananas were grown relatively close to one another.
