    As a kid my best friend was Chinese and going to her house for dinner was seriously one of my fondest memories. Her mum was an INCREDIBLE cook and food was so ingrained into their family’s celebrations. There would be piles of noodles, different rice dishes, homemade dumplings and hot pot night. She put so much love into everything and I got to try so many new dishes that were made by someone I knew very well. I’ve tried to recreate her dishes as an adult but I have a lot of work to do with my cooking skills lol.

    I used to hate being black at a very young age. I went to a predominately white elementary school so I felt as though I should have been born white. I wanted to be like almost every white girl in my class. Now as I've grown up I appreciate being black and enjoying Soul food and the culture/history behind it. I also used to hate my body. When I started hitting puberty and gaining weight I felt insecure because some girls were slim and had the "best" bodies. During the pandemic and being virtual I tried losing weight. Although I yo-yoed a lot. I am now happy to say that I am in high school and loving my body. I still struggle with trying not to restrict food and not sucking in my stomach 24/7 but I am learning and growing. I encourage any one who struggles with this to be yourself and love your body. Your body was designed for you. You can't hate your home!! its how you get around how you live. Your body is special!!

    Aww Linda, it's so nice to see you reconnecting to your roots. As a second generation Chinese-Canadian, I've noticed the heightened visibility of our community in AAPI heritage month given the stop asian hate movement gaining momentum last year, and I am so happy that you're becoming a diversity trailblazer! I've also been super into your recipes as I try to constantly replicate them as part of my college meals, but I never have enough time to do so. It seems like you're constantly cooking complex recipes and editing heavy 20-minute videos on top of the heaps of homework that you probably do in Business School -- I don't know how you're managing time. If you're reading this, good luck in your final year of college!

    "I miss you = did you eat " i totally agree with that. My parents calls me everyday while i'm at my doom, they just ask "did you had your food on time" rather than asking how do feel? And just hang up after asking and getting the answer. The fruit bowl in between; while at home busy studying & stressing out for finals. Making hot coffee at night while studing and skipping sleep. I already miss home. Omg i still hesitate to eat all my culture food because eating it feels fatty in my body. I still looking at mirror seeing my belly even after working out early in the mrng for 3years straight while my frds laying on bed watching yt and muching of snacks. But i feels so strong and confident to carry me around after working out, that making me wanting to get up in the mrng and sweat myself.

    I loved this video- I loved the clips of your mom cooking. My mom cooks a lot of Korean food, but it was my grandmother that this video most reminded me of. We lost her this year in January and when I think of all the Korean food I ate growing up, it was hers- every type of imaginable kimchi; dumplings; beef; pork; maki rolls; stews; soups; noodles. Every bite was infused not only with culture, but with love and with my childhood. I resonate with what you said about diet culture teaching us that ethnic foods are "unhealthy" or "bad"-- and now that my grandmother is gone, I regret all the times I didn't cherish the meals she made for me and my family. Thank you for sweetly reminding me of my grandmother.

    I love that I can live vicariously through you with the foods you shared in this video especially. my Chinese side (maternal grandfather) disowned my mom and my maternal grandma's family and kids after my grandfather passed. so unfortunately, I never got a chance to grow up learning the language or my family heritage from my Chinese side. I loved learning all these recipes and experiencing a small semblance of culture through your video. thank you for making content like this and your other videos. I appreciate you so much.

    Thank you for continuing to show up and highlight being Chinese while working out and staying healthy and fit. I recently started keeping track of what I eat on My Fitness Pal and I thought it might not allow me to have my former sense of freedom with food in general, treats, and Asian cuisine... but I've been pleasantly surprised by how many bar codes from the supermarket in Japan show up in the app, and also how eating fewer calories doesn't have to mean less flavor, or less authentic to who I am as an Taiwanese American. Much love from Japan!

    I am going to be honest, I would literally give EVERYTHING to eat those foods, especially when they are made by mother sun. Linda you can be so proud of your culture (not only because of the food even though that reason would be enough for me haha)
