Boy ,are you ready to label people as racists or XYZ phobics, completely ignoring any contexts! This host goes down to the root of European specialties because she's probably from Europe. Why would that be racist? And as far as tastes, to each his own, but one finds the making of cheese or pesto far more interesting than the assembly of sandwiches in a NY deli.

I think the host is great and her explanation and appreciation of other cultures is great. It’s one commenter that was racist and I stand by my statement.

A fact that may surprise you: I'm Greek and a typical combo for a light and refreshing dish we typically eat on summer days is feta with watermelon. In Cyprus where I live atm it's also done with halloumi cheese. Both are amazing if you're a fan of sweet and sour dishes.

I second that! People look at me like I have two heads when I tell them I half Black half Greek and are shocked when they realize that I’m very familiar with most Greek dishes and know many words in Greek because my grandmother is 100% Greek and my great grandparents migrated to America from the Greek island of Ikaria to a small town on the eastern border of Ohio and West Virginia, separated by the Ohio River. It just so happened that after my grandmother was born and grew into a young woman, she met and married my late grandfather shortly before graduating high school and he was African American so they faced many hardships from my great grandparents who were Catholic and were very upset about my grandmother marrying someone who not only was not Greek, but Black as well, and things only got worse when she fell pregnant with her first child before marriage because it was then that she and her husband were sent away to northern Ohio to live with a relative of my grandfather until she had given birth. Her parents refused anything to do with them until they got married as they were ashamed to have a daughter who got pregnant by a black man out of wedlock and so they married. Not long after my father was born and he was much darker than her first son and was treated very directly from his olive-skinned Hazel-eyed brother but everyone except his father, who understood what he was going through and protected my dad and they had an unbeatable bond up until my grandfather’s death at the young age of 40 from contracting Legionnaires due to working in the steel mill. Long story short, my mother grew up not too far from my dad and eventually ended up living here in Steubenville as well. They were introduced to each other by my dad’s brother, my uncle, who was currently dating my moms sister, my aunt. Not long after my aunt had her youngest son and not even a year later my mom had me her youngest daughter. So having one side of my family being Greek and the other being African American I’ve been asked if I was adopted all my life because I’m dark skinned and my grandmother is Olive toned and people are always blown away when I start talking Greek or introduce my grandmother to them and find out she’s my paternal grandmother lol!

The Greek and Italian people have many cultural similarities and a dense and intricate historical intersection and blending... indeed, the word "Greece" is from the Latin language... meaning "Greater", as in the main land of what now is the country of Greece... Sicily and southern Italy were once colonies of the Greek peoples... so many Italians have Greek DNA in their veins, and many Greek people have Italian in theirs... Claudia is the perfect host for this segment... and really any she does!

Feta goes with everything

Watermelon & Feta is my favorite combination 💙

I grew up with Feta. Fresh bread with Feta and Tomato in the morning. Damn. Feta, strained Yogurt and Olive Oil. These things gave us an empire once upon a time. Edibles Alexander the Great was feeding our army with. Let me tell you a secret only Greeks poses. Strained Greek Yogurt even the ones with 0% Fat feel like Full Fat amazingly. And the texture... Velvet! Unmatched!

The only downside of sheep milk is the smell added to the cheese (some people can't take that strong smell) but for me it's very nice. I prefer fetas with only one type of milk (cow, sheep or goat) but that combination looks very good. Thanks for the video and greetings from other side of the Aegean Sea. Still wishing for a future where we can enjoy what we create together without fighting about it. Peace.

Btw, i kinda dont like it, i'm more of a hard and tangy cheese like a washed rind. But triple creme is the favourite of everyone i make cheese for!
