The girls having opposite tastes and the dude lovin them both is actually hilarious

[saraw]

Jeremiah was the best part of this whole episode. His demeanor and appreciation for all the food was just good.

[cantplaywitmyyoyo]

Jeremiah's vibe is unmatched. Please bring him back. Would love to see him and Thomas do a video together. Jeremiah's laid back and Thomas' on go energy would be prime TV.

As a Jamaican, I think they should've gotten a different Jamaican who doesn't dislike ripe plantains... 😅 Green plantain and ripe plantain are 2 separate flavors and textures! Big up Jeremiah, his vibes for the win! 🎉🎉🎉

[trupti.marolia]

Jeremiah was just there to have a great time and I love that 😊

[krissy.]

Jeremiah won PERIOD. Cause he wasn’t a hater and had the best attitude and vibe which is rare with these videos. They should do a video with just the positive people they’ve had that would be amazing.

"I don't know how people mess up plantain"
Girl, if you ever take your eyes off the pot for 1 second, you'll surely find out!😂 Ripe plantain is the easiest thing to burn.

Her: “it’s Plan - tin…not plan - tain”
Him right after her saying that : “……if you’re speaking English then it’s plan - tain”😂😂😂

[MacJWitDaCheese]

This is probably one of the most fair reviews I've seen, ppl actually judging and acknowledging palette preference and not just shittin on other ppls dish for the sake of winning

Jeremiah came into this contest in good faith. He was ready to enjoy what he ate. Not look for reasons to not like it. Shout out to the Brother, his vibe absolutely made and saved this video.

Pls bring Jeremiah back he definitely brings positive vibes he’s having a blast ! 😎

[xoxo.niki.b]

Please have Jeremiah back. He has great energy

[lttlbrds]

Jeremiah is a real positive person, his energy is awesome! Big up Trini! Plantain don’t need anything, just fry real good 😊

[dereklegendre]

I love the super sweet ones with slightly burnt edges 🇹🇹

[leahnole]

Jeremiah is mad cool!!! He also was neither overly critical nor cocky. So, bring him back.

I feel like camisha was intimidated by Bethany’s dish which is why she gave her a 5 and gave them garlicky a$$ plantains a 7 🤣. And she said she gave Bethany’s dish a 5 because it’s not what she’s used to, but if they’re all repping different places they shouldn’t expect something their used to and definitely shouldn’t judge based on which is more familiar . Definitely needed a 4th opinion for a more fair score for everyone

[YourWaveyness]

Jeremiah was cool asf, he was definitely reasonable with his ratings. Bro is for sure invited to the cookout 💯💯

[vanessavelez]

Best plantain is when it’s crispy like a toston but it’s starting to ripen so it’s sweet and sprinkled with salt 🤤

[sarahwilson]

Big up 🇹🇹 I like mine a little more caramelized and sprinkled with salt as well. Brings out the sweetness.

I love that jamaica came through and represented classy, they usually like to make us look ratchet. But this woman showed out! Jamaica to di worl
