[@davidsoup1738]

I live in Spain, and can confirm calçots are one of my favorite vegetables, if not my favorite. they're seriously delicious and very addicting

[@mmoxiee]

In the US, can green onions be used instead of calçots?

[@CookingEmi]

@@mmoxieeit’s not the samee

[@saiphrivas1437]

@@mmoxiee as the video says, you need something milder than green onions, a calçot's flavour is something between that of a regular onion and a leek. The best "substitute" you could have in the US are Vidalia onions, but they aren't the right shape.

[@bubulnaidoo]

Spain REALLY loves this vegetable lol

[@davidsoup1738]

@@bubulnaidoo We really do. With salbitxada sauce we can eat it for days. Especially in Catalonia, I lived there for 9 years and it's basically a religion there

[@santionguyen2708]

Loved the video and the inspiring words at the end - 'In a world full of onions that would make you cry, a smile that you get from a Calçot is something worth celebrating.' And the winner's attitude towards the festival was a great reminder of what it's all about - good food, good company, and good times!

[@YogurtSnipe]

I miss this, it’s my favorite channel to watch for short bits of modern history. Update: Never would I have thought a culture of onions existed.

[@aisadal2521]

OMGGGG, I TOTALLY MISSED YOUR EPIC RETURN!!! I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE ALL BACK; I REALLY LOVED AND MISSED THE STORIES YOU ALL COVERED 🥺😭😍

It was 2020 wjen i lost my job. I was depressed and anxious about the pandemic. But then i discovered this channel. Your stories helped me through all those depressing months. Watching your videos is like travelling around the world, going to different villages and discovering something interesting. Unlike the usual documentaries, you guys let us see new events, people, places, and foods. I'm very happy you guys are back. Love, from the Philippines

[@roxannnewolfe2021]

This is hands down my favorite channel just for things like this ❤❤ it makes people happy

[@andrewthepokerchamp]

I never would have thought in a million years we would be getting a festival for onions. Man I'm so happy Great Big Story is back

I am eternally grateful for y'all to come back after two years. Y'all filled my life with joy and are why I am inquisitive. Thank you for everything you do, and know that we will honor and cherish you forever.

[@aleena7839]

I remember myself constantly watching this channel since I was 13 y/o until the discontinuation and now I'm in university and you're finally back 😭

[@Aukejorrit]

GBS returning is one of the best surprises of the year so far. So glad to be able to learn more fun unique stories like these

[@TENZEN._.]

You all did a FANTASTIC job translating. It definitely was not like the translations on Netflix. OUTSTANDING VIDEO MY FRIENDS! 🔥👊😎🔥

[@kzhang3145]

Wow!! A blast from the past. I was really sad that had put an end on it before. Excited to see them back again. Can't wait for future videos!

[@JohnTranYouTube]

I remember watching Great Big Story back in 7th grade in my middle school math class. I was sad to see them go. I’m glad to see they’re back.

[@charlottesavitz]

Oh my goodness! I got into GBS last year and after watching EVERY SINGLE VIDEO was devastated to find out that they weren’t creating anymore!!! This just made my day! Thank you GBS!

[@davidbritt5020]

It's such a joy to see new videos again. These videos about fantastic and unique foods from around the world are what inspired me in college to put down the pop tarts and instant Mac, and learn to cook real food.

[@galvetheirondragon1929]

I never thought I would see a notification again from this channel before watching the return video. I'm so glad you're back!

[@DelonSerinoVlogs]

From a teacher’s point of view, I used some of your videos for a listening test. You’ve been a great help to my non-English speaking students because your voice overs are not as fast as other informative channels. Thanks for being a tool inside my classroom and yes, welcome back! You were missed.

[@meenaragyor]

I just kept smiling throughout the video, thinking about how we got GBS back and really missed this!!!❣️🦋

[@Jude74]

I’m so happy you’re back don’t leave us again. I can only watch the Insiders so expensive for so long.

[@Zveebo]

Great to see you back! This felt just like your old videos - and I mean that very much as a compliment!

[@SrSamuerto]

Spaniard here. I have always seen my family eat calçots, but I have never liked them (nor any other vegetable at all), but I really enjoyed cooking them, and I liked the sauce, which I put in toasted bread instead.

[@danielgyila3662]

Brooo mira que es raro que no te gusten aunque claro si no comes verduras, que guapo ojalá ir a una calçotada nen

[@SrSamuerto]

@@danielgyila3662 Yo es que soymuu especial con las verduras, tienen que ser textura de patata hervida o guisante como mucho, o frita como la cebolla (no caramelizada), no puedo con las texturas. El tema calçotades, yo soy de Ibiza, así que no hacemos una fiesta, pero sí nos juntamos la familia un fin de semana o dos en invierno/primavera.

[@danielgyila3662]

@@SrSamuerto aaah vale, yo de Aragón con que lo mismo no hacemos calçotada pero si que comemos con la familia de vez en cuando jajajjs
