Momma needs her own show. I so miss your parents.

Zach, keep having your mom Kelly Jo on your cooking show. She really adds to it and it’s so much fun to see you to cook together and talk together. It’s your best videos.

Mama B is GORGEOUS!! (Inside❤ and out) and Zack is Such a Good example of what men should be to their wife, children and family in Christ and Whitney is Beautiful!....thank you and God Bless and Protect the Beautiful Bates Families. We Still don't understand how they will put out shows and movies that cater to the world, but took away a show that showed how a Christian family with 19 children does life in Christ and all the natural zaney, hilarious and heartwarming and miraculous things that can happen with Jesus at the Center and just how Christians handle the day to day. That was ministry and it encouraged us out here and gave us something that we knew our children and Grandchildren and grandparents could watch all together as cussing, no drinking or drunkeness, no filth or anything you might see on a current PG or R rated show or movie not to mention the commercials and talk shows that pretty much show the same things.😢 Just sayin...when did quality stop being good enough so they could pump out meaningless quantity. Thankful that you do your youtube channels so we Still get to be a part of your Lovely families....Thank you!!❤

If there was ever a perfect family it’s the Bates. You can feel the love and admiration coming right out of all their YouTube channels.

The only thing that can possibly compete with watching you do your magic in the kitchen is learning more about your family in a sit down discussion like this. Thanks for letting us be a part of the conversation.

The way of love Zack looks at his mama is melting my mama heart

[nancyoliver]

I love the bond that Mama B has but each of her children. I love when she’s on your show.

[aliyahabdul]

What a beautiful relationship you have with your mom! She is an absolute gem. May the lord bless her abundantly.

As a mom of 5 young boys (and one girl) Warms my heart to see healthy adult mom-son relationships ❤️

[Texan_Gal]

This is one of the few women that seems to be so 100% happy and content with life and marriage. WOW. I’m literally in awe because my childhood was very dysfunctional and very toxic. I never saw my mother happy. I never had a birthday party. I never saw my parents love each other. I am just in awe of this family from day one.
I’m literally traumatized after all these years.

Can you please encourage her to write a book please???

[Cari-fu]

Sounds like you need to do a Bates family cookbook ❤

[bethwhitworth]

❤Awe I love mama Bates! She is a lady who is grateful and happily loves on her family ❤

[michellepoe]

I love when momma Bates is cooking with Zach. It’s so fun to watch them. I also love the Q&A. Even though I watched Bring up Bates it’s still fun to hear all of the stories momma Bates tells. 💜

[carolynmurphy]

Loved this! You two have such a sweet relationship and it definitely shines through. Still hoping that Mama B get's her own Youtube channel one of these days! 🥰

[skhephner]

Zach, you & Momma B together are awesome! I also love when Whitney or one of kids comes on- her fruit pizza rocked.

[Ldeb]

Oh I love mama B!! She is amazing and so are her children! Gil is awesome too we can’t leave him out!!❤❤❤

[donnasmallwood]

[cathykilpinen]

Yes, my mother had quite a few of the jellied salad recipies, not really my favorite, but there were a few that I didn't mind..a very simple one was can of fruit cocktail and cherry jelloand another was lime jello and apple, celery, ...oh those childhood memories..

Cooking as a hobby is great, you end up with a finished product. The same for those who sew, crochet, do craft work - the hobbies end up with a finished product, That is fun. I also like other hobbies like reading and that provides relaxation and knowledge.
