I'm glad he mentioned that there is so much diversity in Thanksgiving meals. I doubt that any two homes have the same menu.

JOLLY ...thank you for bringing David back! Starting the petition for a collab between David and the British High Schoolers ✍

I feel like David is a really great representative of what an American is like and how to share our culture. He’s honest that his cooking is obviously from the perspective of a southern boy and that things will vary depending on region and family (for example, we could never have Thanksgiving without rolls and mashed potatoes in my family up north.) He’s also so kind and a real gentleman, it seems. I’ve really enjoyed seeing both videos he’s been in. ❤

David seems like the nicest guy, and his food looked great. Some of the more creative side dishes are new to me, but that's the beauty of the holiday. Make what makes you happy!

[TheWelschman]

David cooks such rustic AND elevated American food. This is the way to showcase classic American dishes. Absolutely killed it!

"Is Thanksgiving, is it a chaotic meal?" The most spot on of spot on things said

[LoraHauschildt]

😂😂😂😂Josh complaining about Ollie's fingers on his cornbread....when you always share bites off the same sandwich made me spit out my coffee😂😂😂😂

[jae]

When he said “I’m feeling the lack of sugar, it would be better if there was butter and sugar” dudes becoming a true American now🫡😂 12:28

[SpecialKseZ]

19:09 You can tell David sincerely appreciated that compliment. Hats off to you, David. You deserve all the accolades!

[simonecook]

Olly chugging that bourbon pumpkin spice latte when Josh went mad about the cornbread 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[Alucardd-tteb]

“We would eat the Brussels sprouts as fast as possible so we didn’t have to thank God for them” that’s probably one the most innocently funny things you can remember from your childhood. Love it! Had me laughing

[quietwaterz]

Thanksgiving is a notoriously chaotic holiday. Especially if you are the cook/cooks. Add a little more chaos per guest present and double that for every kid present. 😂
It's at the perfect time of the year. The cold weather, the warm food. A fireplace going. It's so cozy. I love it!

[jakealden]

They still need to have a full Thanksgiving experience...watching the parade on TV while cooking, playing football in the backyard before dinner, sleeping on the sofa with the football game on TV, going back for a 2nd or 3rd round of food, sitting around a bonfire in the evening, and making turkey sandwiches for a nighttime snack.

Josh and Ollie—one thing that is interesting about Thanksgiving food is that many people in America don’t eat much of these dishes at any other time but at Thanksgiving, which is part of why the meal is so special and part of why typically there are so many different dishes prepared. And, most families eat the leftovers for a week after, either as more helpings of the food as is, or repurposed in turkey soup, turkey sandwiches, turkey pot pie, etc.

I don't ever really comment, I just wanted to say thank you to Josh and Ollie. A few years ago I had a change in life circumstances, and became homeless, unmedicated, and suicidal. I was looking for reasons to stay alive. Literally, I was going to kill myself that day. But out of the blue, totally unexpectedly, I clicked on a video, and tried something new. I thought I'd lose interest in literal seconds. I saw some British highschoolers try some Korean food on YouTube. Seeing their eyes light up in new and wonderful way was heartwarming to me. Reminded me of my son. Anyway, I grew to love the channel(s) Josh and Ollie appear in, and now I'm in a house, with fulfilling work, and purpose in life. And I would have killed myself if that fateful day, I hadn't had a moment of levity and wholesome 'niceness' like Josh and Ollie provide. Thank you both for existing. Thank you both for being yourselves. It may sound strange or over the top, but I would not be here if it weren't for you guys. So this year - I'm thankful for YOU. (And hey - come to California and I'll show ya some insane and cool places to eat in Joshua Tree.) All my love. Always. Josh and Ollie - thank you for my life. It's a pretty good one now ❤️. I look forward to your next video, as always.

So great that David explained the menu variation according to region. Even family to family.

[alex]

Big W to that viewer that shared their family’s pie recipe

[Ojisan]

David is a great ambassador for American food. No bullshit, he’s doing a great job. So many “American” in England videos seem like it’s done by someone who has never been to America, or read about it in a book. David is real, this food looks authentic.

[yivo]

This guy took Green Bean Casserole, Corn Casserole, Cranberry Sauce to a whole nother level. Everything looks amazing.

[NexusVR]

Cranberry sauce with Turkey has to be one of the best food combos! 🦃
