When ol boy chased his pork chop with a swig of gumbo, he instantly became an honorary citizen of Louisiana💀

[tedberhane]

“They’ve done something revolutionary, they spiced the batter” 😂

[tarek]

As a Black American, thank you for showing REAL American food to these guys. Unlike everyone else in the media and news where they only depict American food as only burgers, ultra processed and heavily dyed snacks, high sugar desserts, and deep fried everything. And this video is for other foreigners that say we don’t have traditional cuisine 💯

[donnaw]

I was *screaming* NO, JOSH! when he dumped all that hot sauce in. Just a few drops, especially if you're not used to spicy. 😂

[TheWingus]

Ollie has such a unique ability to simultaneously find the dumbest comparisons while making the most perfect metaphors. You guys are a delight

[trith]

As a lifelong Louisiana resident who cooks all the things you guys had himself regularly, I'm so glad you got to eat it from an authentic hotspot, and not a chain restaurant. Lot's of places make "gumbo"....but very few make "real gumbo"....

Visited New Orleans this year all the way from Australia and when I say I miss their food every day. I mean I miss their food EVERY! DAMN! DAY! YALL! Hahaha
This made me so so jealous but also super happy for you at the same time. 🤣 Louisiana (NOLA especially though) was my favourite state in all of the US- West AND East coast!!

[louisem]

Such nice boys, no swearing, funny, articulate, intelligent and authentic. Just found this channel and I’m really enjoying it.

[shawnmoore]

That "America" when eating the fried chicken was awesome. Im a 37 year old American but I think good food is universal language for all humans. You guys are wonderful.

[tylerpals]

I genuinely appreciate y’all sharing what actual American food is. I feel like most of the world just thinks it’s burgers and such but there’s so much more here. Granted, it has influences from many different cultures but they have become a staple in our regional cultures and part of our identity

[SunKing]

Soul food is the best cuisine in the world. I truly believe nothing can beat it.

[sophiaaldous]

“God save their gracious queen.” 😆 You guys are a blast to watch and make me want to go to this restaurant so I can experience the joy of Southern food for the first time.

[williamnavarro]

The faces these Brits have when they eat American food is like “I know WHY you fought for your independence!”😂😂😂

[Veeeeee]

As a New Orleanian, I’ve been waiting for y’all to try our food.

Y’all gotta try po-boy, étouffée, crawfish, beignets, and muffaletta.

I can also confirm that I practically drink Louisiana hot sauce, I absolutely love that stuff.

[michalsextion]

As a native Nola girl, this episode just brings a big smile to my face. If you want to get a bigger range, head down to New Iberia. Louisiana on its own is filled with multiple cultures with multiple versions of similar foods.

[SolCrown]

I love that you're trying all the REAL American food. I feel like a lot of people associate the US with fast food because places like McDonald's and KFC have such a long reach. But we have so many great and unique food traditions here, and Louisiana cajun and creole is one of the best and most unique. It's a fantastic mashup on every level, with afro-latin, African American, French, Southern, indigenous, and other influences, land with sea, spicy and sharp with soft and comforting. New Orleans is one of my absolute favorite cities anywhere and I've visited several times, and the food is no small part of that (the other parts being the people and the music. The cocktails are good too :))

[akareject]

New Orleans is the pinnacle of American cuisine. People vacation there just for the food. So glad you have made the trip to experience it for yourselves!

[patrickbrowder]

Having lived abroad for years and constantly, usually derogatorily hearing American food is only fast food hamburgers and hot dogs, Bravo to Jolly for your American tours! Welcome back fellas!

[matthewthibodoux]

They tried Creole...now they need to try Cajun!

[gojewla]

I have never been to New Orleans, but EVERYONE says the food there is absolutely amazing. There is no way it isn’t great.
