Yes but the problem is, if you don't put a ton of sugar in sweet things, you can't hide the fact that it has no good taste of its own. That's why all the cheap candy is so sweet.

@Dockhead

3 жыл бұрын

@@j.d.4697 most candy is majority sugar in itself, if considering gummies, candies, boiled/hard sweets etc etc. cakes and desserts etc can absolutely be made with less sugar, sugar is majorly used because of how cheap it is and the volume its processed at is easier to acquire in bulk amounts for companies. i find the technique in which you cook determines the quality of overall product, more so than the 'quality' of the products being used themselves. well not for everything but a lot.

@foreseengust

3 жыл бұрын

@@Dockhead I think most people who eat a lot of these cheap readymade pastries have desensitized their tastebuds, so they don't get overwhelmed by the excessive amounts of sugar. And so companies kept up by making things as sweet as possible. People who don't eat sweets regularly aren't their regular customers anyway, so they don't care if we don't like them.

Whenever Mike asks a guest about the food and they don't know what more to say other than "really good", you've gotta appreciate Mike's ability to describe what he's eating

The moment you saw them bring out the second bowl of pho with the rib 😂🤣 I need to go to this place asap 🤤🤤

“God I’m so full...OOO cupcakes!!” Mikey is such a mood lmfao

Seeing mikey so excited about meeting ben is so wholesome 😊 Makes me miss my friends

I can’t imagine Mike saying pho’ed up when he talked about his stomach, but pho-illed is appropriate too, it matches his wholesome vibes. What a great person he is in this world.

Pro tip: when eating a banh mi eat it upside down so it doesn’t scrap the roof of your mouth. Thank me later

Best compliment from an Asian person on desserts - "it's not overly sweet" 🤣 So true!

It isn't a Strictly Dumpling video until Mikey mentions his surprise over vegetables!

Thank you so much for putting the actual spelling of the banh xeo tacks, Mikey! I feel like my culture is appreciated Also, those banh xeo tacos are a take on the crispy banh xeo (or Vietnamese crepes) that you love so much, the ones that you usually eat with bean sprouts inside and paired with a bunch of mints and veggies

thanks for promoting VNese food Mike! i always feel VNese food is super underrated. it's one of (if not) the best cuisine out there imo

Your vlogs keep us happy in these dark and gloomy times - it's just a best form of distraction from all our sorrows. Keep posting . Love (India/ Delhi)

The part about the Asian compliment, “it’s not overly sweet.”, so so true!

That rib looked magnificent Mikey 😍😂 and I love Banh Mi sandwiches. The food you eat always looks so fantastic.

Went to sleep, saw a notification from Mikey and now I’m here watching this video. The ONLY KZreadr I would do that for. Man I love your videos man! Keep it up.

Hahaha! So true about the"it's not overly sweet" comment. This is really the first thing we say when we want to compliment a dessert. Because to us, that means the dessert is perfectly balanced in flavour.

Haven’t been this early in awhile. Just had your hot oil for the first time Mikey. IT WAS AWESOME🗣

I loooove the freshness and balance of good Vietnamese food. 5ive spice is definitely going on my list ❤❤

Big like for the frequent uploads! Keep it going big man.

I always enjoy watching your amazing food videos, keep up the awesome work, Mikey. 😊 I definitely enjoy eating Vietnamese cuisine. 💜

What a beautiful way to wake up..watching this fine man devour delicious meals! Brekky time! 😊 💕

Yay!!! Perfect way to end my super busy Monday ❤️ Stay safe Mike! You are still my fave😘

Your videos either make me eat more or stop eating haha I feel full looking at all the delicious food. I don't know how he does it hahaha What a metabolism.

I love Vietnamese food. It’s so fresh, tasty, a bit of spice and crunchy texture. The banh mi is fabulous (gotta find a good place though). That first restaurant knew they were onto a good thing with Mikey in the house.

Mike thank you so much for the recommendations! We tried them out and the short rib and bahmih totally lived up to your reaction!

That rib is so huge, can be considered as a weapon! Looks delicious OMG!

I’m just always amazed at the volume of food you can consume! I’m full just watching you!

I love Banh Mi Saigon a lot. Love their sandwiches and appetizers. I recommend it 100%

Vietnamese food is definitely at the top of my favorite list! It just soothes my soul every timeeeee🥰

I like how mike chen asking different friends asking how diverse those taste like and how they can describe all of what they taste like on their perspespective really put them into something that they can describe. It also gives me more room about food. Everything about food is good but it will be better on how you appreciate them

Yay! Another Mikey video!!! Always puts me in a good mood - albeit a hungry good mood but still good nonetheless 😁

There is a huge vietnamese population where I live in Australia... bahn mi is life.

Mikey… looks like an amazing culinary journey through Gnew Yawk… but you cannot dispute that the Vietnamese cuisine back down here in San Joserville has it beat.

Mikey..you always wax poetic when.eating delicious food..what an awesome person you are!!!

i dont know when i started watching Mikey cause is a few years already, and to this day im always surprised how much of a mess mikey always do spilling food everywhere hahaha, thank you for another amazing video!

"oh i'm so full" "oh, cupcakes!"

Those cupcakes sound like they're right up my alley! I usually scrape off most of the frosting from cakes and cupcakes because it's usually too sweet!

I am so happy that I always watch these videos with a full stomach! 🥰 Nothing worse then crave for food you can't have. 😂 Love from Brazil 🇧🇷 ♥
