Why I Will Stop Rating Food..

[DHVF]

Blink twice if you are being hostage by the Dutch for trashing their breakfast

While I never thought of it negatively, I really love this approach. Much love

I enjoy your ratings which have encouraged us to try new foods/dishes from around the world.

I actually really like the food rating vids but not for the ratings. To me it was a fun way to recreate new recipes when I was in a rut. I’m glad you kept the things that actually kept the core of what I thought was the most important; great tasting food.

It´s authentic growth, my guy. People may be sad about it, but I say, go for it. I will stay a fan.
How about country features instead? Like a special for a certain country or so, making a lot of german christmas food or the like. More representation, no ratings?
You could also involve the community. "Hey folks, what foods from Indonesia should I make for the Indonesia special?" etc

It’s better for mental health if people stop doing things that make them feel icky. No matter what it is. But your reasons for the change are really decent too. So much respect for you Kevin ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟

As a Dutch person i can confirm Hagelslag on bread is dissapointing.

[lilmeowmeow]

He seems super sweet but I don't think it's that deep, still it's up to him and whatever he makes. He seems like a real genuine guy and has my support

[tacozilla]

I liked your rating videos, but I do agree with you reasonings and I'll keep watching no matter what you make! Can't wait for your future vids.

Thank you for being so thoughtful!
I feel a lot of mindfulness and respect to other cultures in your words.

Polarization is a legit issue right now. In America, especially, people take competition extremely seriously - like beyond being laughable. I enjoyed the videos light-heartedly, and I also applaud your recognition that it might feel cringy to "rank" countries. Love your takes on things, and your videos do make me happy. Thanks so much!

I think this is a great choice, with a lot of thought and care put into it, not many YouTubers would drastically change their most popular series for the betterment of doing what’s right. Huge respect to you!

[a.a.]

You're genuinely so kind and respectful, will support all you do and thank you for introducing us to so many dishes❤❤

[Jonno]

I never thought about the rating system like that, but having explained it, makes perfect sense, personally I would like to see more of the cultural history (when possible) around whatever dish your trying, the more everyone knows the closer we can all be. Love your work mate!

[Ok-dfuz]

Appreciate both the content and the sensitivity, most of all the integrity with regard to what you put out into the world. That's admirable.

[chloejarvis]

I never viewed what you were doing before negatively, but I really respect this decision.
I think there’s a lot of things that people back away from unnecessarily, cause they’re being hyper-aware, but I really see where you’re coming with this one.
I appreciate your thought and you sharing with all of us, thanks my guy

Can’t wait to hear your personal stars :)

I am here for you and your content. Do what you feel right for you and do not overwork yourself please.

[quietestkitten]

I totally respect this! You're being reflexive and thoughtful. 😊
