🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

I've been involved in the Syrian refugee crisis since a young teen, visiting camps and helping as much as I could with education, food banks, etc... I really hope this issue gets solved in the near future, as it is an important one. Syrians are full of potential, and their culture is extremely rich in every possible way. Glad Sonny and his team decided to shed light on the food aspect of it 🙌🏼.

Food is one of many aspects of life and showing the full picture like Sonny does is brilliant and appreciated. Also, I used to watch other channels, trying not to mention names, and they just focused on the food which was not as interesting to watch anymore. So I dropped them and continued to watch this channel.

    I had the privilege of traveling to Syria before the war, I was one of very few Americans without a family connection to travel there. The food there was absolutely incredible, some of the most delicious flavors I've ever tried. The people were also all incredibly friendly and welcoming, and excited to show us their incredible history. Two stories stick out. One was a guy who saw my family walking and called out, "Americans! We love Americans! We don't like your government, but we love Americans!" Same buddy. Another was I was trying to find a place I could buy some water. I speak no Arabic, so I walked up to some guy on the street and tried to hand signal wanting to buy some water and he just handed me the bottle he had. What wonderful people. I hope I can go back one day.

    I am impressed how Sonny can manage to bring important political, economic, social topics into his food videos without being forceful about it. And is able to make people conscious about things they try not to think about, to think about them. This sets him apart for a most of other KZreadrs, and especially food vloggers who really just care about food normally. He does it in a really great way. He deserved any of the 10 million followers he has, and I wish him more. If he continues doing videos like this, his reach cant be big enough (Which is maybe the only way to make especially people from his home country care about these things, Europe takes most of the burdens of those problems.. Not exactly the countries who caused them in the first place)

    I worked in North Lebanon. Despite all the hardships these families have to go through, I have been always amazed and delighted by their resilience and never-fading spirit. At a certain point, I seriously questioned the attitude of people in welfare states, where they learnt to complain about everything, including young people unwilling to attend college... I talked to young people in similar camps and their biggest dream was to be enrolled in the education system because they understand the meaning and power of knowledge. I can just hope for the best for these people.

It was a stark reminder of the immense challenges they faced and the difficult journey they had to endure. It is disheartening to see that the world seems to have forgotten about them, as if their existence has been erased. These individuals deserve our empathy and support during these trying times.It is crucial that we come together as a community to lend a helping hand to those in need, especially when they have lost everything.

    Food is comfort, it’s home, it’s family, friends and the soul of so many. A lot of people forget that it’s not just about sustenance and survival of our physical body, but also about our emotional and spiritual selves. Food is one of the easiest ways to feel even one bit of normalcy amongst chaos and despair. Sharing loved foods and cultural or traditional meals is literally the easiest way to show you care, to teach someone about your people, your struggle and to bring people together. It’s something that everyone, everywhere has in common. The quickest and easiest way to trigger the parts of the brain that control nostalgia, comfort, security and feeling at ease are all effected when we share food/meals with others. We hear the food as it’s being prepared and that triggers happy memories of childhood, smelling the foods releases endorphins, tasting the food starts adrenaline flowing. It’s so much more than just survival and this channel highlights that perfectly.
