Didn't expect Poha to be the first dish! I was watching this while having it for breakfast and I burst out laughing

Just brilliant how Ben had to mention this might not be the version Kush’ mother-in-law would make. 😂

Mike making the Trinidad-joke made me realise that he definitely has found the dad joke territory now that he’s a dad. 😂

I've recently realised that every country has a version of a dumpling. You should do a similar format by having the normals guess where the dumplings come from. :D

Gujarat is actually adjacent to Maharashtra. Both those states used to be one state at one point. So you were actually quite spot on with the region too. Good job.

It is awesome to see an attempt at a Ghanaian dish on this channel :)
Waakye which is pronounced more like "wah-chay" and is a Hausa word, not Nigerian. It originates from Northern Ghana which has a lot of Hausa people. Waakye tends to be little more reddish brown and black-eyed peas are used most often and the rice and beans are most often cooked in water with some salt. It is served with SO many things like a tomato stew, a pepper sauce known as shito, some spaghetti, some gari (cassava flakes), meat or fish or egg or all of them, and a side of plantain. It is the combination of all these that make waakye one of the most sought-after dishes for breakfast or lunch or dinner.

As a Turkish, I suspected if it was "Simit" because it is generally braided in Turkey. Simit is everyone's favourite, cheap and on-to-go kind of breakfast. We have lots of common food with Greece so I learned now Simit is one of them.

It’s really neat to learn so much about your international community through these presentations. The more we learn the better we become.

As a Greek, I spent the whole round looking at the koulouria like...these are too thick but so similar to ours, they have to be from a neighbouring country like Turkey lmao! I've also literally never had them with butter and honey, or even feta and olives...they're a very common snack plain, and sometimes they're sliced horizontally and filled with cheese and maybe ham, then toasted. Either way they're delicious! Used to get them all the time at school.

Ben: “time to put down the chopsticks and pick up the pen”
Jamie: “it’s going to be much harder to eat with a pen”
😂😂😂😂

I am from Greece and I live in Thessaloniki. I was so excited when I saw the traditional koulouri! The original version of koulouri is a little bit thinner and crispier. Another very common breakfast here are pies (like tyropita-cheese fyllo pie or spanakopita-spinach fyllo pie). However, the most common breakfast here in Thessaloniki is mpougatsa which is something like a puff pastry and can have so many filling options! You should try to make it! Good job guys!

I love the fact that even after all these years the boys still clink spoons or whatever together and "Cheers!" before they try something.

As a Czech citizen I want to thank Jamie for acknowledging our existence 😂

Congratulations on Mike getting the win! Also, a bigger shoutout to Chef Kush for creating one great dish after another.

I've never seen Poha on any non-indian YouTube channel. It's such a humble day to day dish with no fanfair. You can also make awesome chiwda/chevda with the same flattened rice (Poha). It's a crunchy snack that tastes bomb with a strong cup of tea.

[IncoherentSchizo]

I'm really surprised neither of the guys guessed Vietnam for that last one given how strikingly similar it looks to Pho.

[littlemissshank]

I love this video! My goal for next year at uni is to try and have one breakfast a week from a different country, this is great inspiration!

[ungultig]

I am currently watching this video in Ghana, while enjoying a bowl of Waakye. Very convenient of my favorite dish here (next to Red-Red) to appear in this video!

Really hope you'll feature tosilog and longsilog from the PH! Their names are portmanteaus of the different components in the dish; "silog" refers to "sinangag" (garlic fried rice) and "itlog" (fried egg). So "tosilog" is a dish served with fried rice, fried egg, and tocino (Filipino cured pork), while "longsilog" is served with the same elements but with longganisa (Filipino sausage). They're some of the most popular breakfasts in the country. Joshua Weissman featured a great recipe for both dishes in his channel, but you can easily find other excellent recipes on the web.

This might be the first time Jamie did NOT put his glasses over the blindfold 😂
