The more I watch you, the more I see a bit of what Anthony Bourdain did, trying to teach people how you should go away from the restaurants and explore the local things and this is what you do a lot, fantastic! Do a DNA test, we knew Bourdain had France, but I wonder what is your origin :D The music in the video, still questionable and too much,. It should be something in the background, here it is like in a horror movie.

Still in shock that I was part of the eating scene 😅 I thought I'd just be working behind the camera. But it was nice hanging out with the Ayta Tribe. I hope viewers can watch this with open-mindedness that goes beyond the food we're eating; it's about the culture and life of the Ayta tribe 🇵🇭. Thanks, Sonny!

I've lived in the Philippines all my life. I am 40 now. This is the first time I've heard of the term "BMW". I studied in a private school and I do not remember Aetas being depicted as "BMW". Yes, they were described as being short with, dark skin, curly hair, and thick lips but not "BMW". I hope no one would think of them that way. The times have changed and a lot of indigenous people are now in big cities, studying in universities and working professionally, For those who remained in their village and chose to live a humble life while preserving their culture, they are not dumb. In fact, they must be admired for their ingenuity, resourcefulness, resilience, humility and strength. I am happy that there are people like Sonny who appreciates the indigenous people around the globe and their cultures. This is the type of content children must be watching and not those random videos of people pranking strangers. Thanks Sonny for your hardwork.

There is this Aeta guy who graduated UP (University of the Philippines) called Norman King. He even had his life portrayed in a soap commercial. He graduated in his natural traditional look too! Which is a bold statement, cause everyone is used to graduation garbs. He really showed that the "Aeta are dumb and ignorant" Thing is not true, and that the thing that is missing is access to urban/modern recourses and proper education, which is NOT their fault at all! These people are in tune with nature, as they have been since the first beginnings of the country. The aeta tribes with their curly hair, tan skin and short stature... The kalinga tribes with their straighter hair, more typical Austronesian/Formosan look and tattoo's... And so many more tribes. They are what makes up the Philippines, and no one should be left behind. For anyone wanting to watch the soap commercial, I urge you to do it with maybe some tissues: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gIabstJmmsyuqNI.html&ab_channel=SafeguardPhilippines

@@bakenbeans420 Well yeah. They got treated similarly to the African tribes when the Europeans arrived. That's why the name for these folk "Negrito" meaning little black person and why theres a region called Negros. So much colorism going on. Fairer skin and well kept hair is still seen as a status symbol. A lot of military groups, notably the Americans actually went to these tribes to train and learn how to survive in the jungles of Southeast Asia. I think it was for the Vietnam war? That's how a lot of them got access to Western media like movies, music and sports. So their survival skills are amazing and so is their resilience.

Now I want to visit an Aeta community! I am a Filipino and it is just so different when you experience the diverse culture of the Philippines.

That's why Sonny is my fave food vlogger ever coz he isn't afraid to go beyond the weird, the extraordinary, or even what most will find odious, making the whole experience not only worth exploring but even seemingly delectable! This adventurous open-mindedness to culinary culture is what most in the biz desperately lacked.

I remember when our house was being constructed in Molino Cavite, the construction crew caught a "bayawak" aka Monitor lizard. During that time Cavite was not that developed in the early 2000s, that bayawak was always killing the chickens in the area. It was delicious.

This food review show is raw at its core

Genuinely some of THE best cultural content on KZread hands down, not just cultural food content, but cultural content in general. Absolutely incredibly good work

A tad over twelve years, retired in the Philippines. I have done lizard and python cooked in coconut milk with a few hot peppers to add some kick. We have also enjoyed native chicken cooked several ways. One time, when my friend's bird won, he brought home the looser and made "fighting cock adobo" for our evening meal. Recently, we had a bit more of a mundane meal when our hostess at a resort prepared some ducks from the pond using her "secret recipe" and shared a portion with us as we shared what we had brought to the camp. The Filipino way, friends, food and fun!

There is one topic that continues to repeat.Education is really one of the most important things to have in society.Thanks B.E.F.R.S

Love your work, Sonny Side!!

This channel is so well produced.

To show even more of the local culture, it would be nice to have extra clips, or add in content interacting or interviewing some locals! Then we can get even more of the feeling of travelling there ;)
