🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

Hi
2:39 come on Sonny... You wasn't always married n you travel for a living 😂 lol
Congrats .. 10 million subs..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Love how you handle tough discussion around a culture, taking it from culinary pov and just trying to understand the situation and leave audience to make their own opinions about it. Kudos on achieving that fine balance.
100% agree
I used to love Bizzare Foods show, but this show superpasses it.
I hate how he does that! Me though I'll be as detailed and even out of topic plus make it awkward as possible while force my politics into this 😬😬😬😬😈😈😈😈😈
Well said sir
@@GregKhar-NU-Metalhead2000 Thanks for being honest. Much appreciated. 🙂👍🙏
Sonny & Oro is my favorite together...their chemistry is on point and it's really fun to watch!
sonny said in the beginning they are good friends.
They keep me laughing 😅
this channels co-host game is amazing. all of them are great!
Completely agree when these two are together it's magic!
Almost as good a sonny and Calvin
The Amazon dolphins will never learn how lucky they are. 😂
😅😅😅😅😅😅 yeap
"Dolphins are humans from a previous life" Continues to chop and eat primates 💀
💀
im no monkey so im fine.
🙊🙉🙈💀
Hey primates just those who hadn’t become human yet
i dont think they believe that humans came from monkeys
Its funny when people go to a poor country and then think people care what animals are endangered. A love of animals only goes so far when you or your family are hungry.
Lol that's a bullshit logic. All these people are just greedy and nothing else. There literally many tribal people who hunts certain animals in limitation so that they don't over kill and make them endangered.
Yea maybe care about the people as much as they do animals and maybe they would have enough assistance to not have to eat whatever you can hunt!!!
I support ANY hunting for food, doesn't matter what it is. But if you going to kill it you BETTER be eating it. Also for most species hunting is needed for conservation.
Amen
So true. They have to save their babies.
The fact that we get free videos on KZhead by Sonny is truly a gift. 👍👍👍
For real!
He reminds me of the awesome Bourdain
He'd charge us if he could
Absolutely. His videos are high standard and the production is elite!
Only if you knew how much money he's making from us watching his videos! He has 10 million subscribers!!!!!
His content is so much better than any of the food shows on TV
I love not only how he's trying different things and explaining them but that he asks questions about their cultures and how they navigate and explain concerning questions. For example endangered species, and why they eat them and how things might or might not change.... And why. It's very informative. Being in the United States I have zero clue about their cultures and why they do what they do so it's easy to form an opinion without facts, so I find this very informational and eye opening; not just for my own opinions but the the facts and way of life for locals. Thank you.
Just an educational comment for anyone reading, the egg is not in the intestine, it is in the oviduct, part of the chickens reproductive tract, somewhat comparable would be the mammalian fallopian tubes (but huge differences). In the oviduct the egg white is first formed, then the protein membrane then the egg shell in the shell gland or uterus. The yolk comes from the ovary in the hen. The reproductive tract, urinary tract, and GI tract all empty out of the same hole in the avian body. The intestines are a separate tube that connects to the cloaca.
Gi is intestines it litterily means the gastrointestinal tract
true in my country they call it tripa poedeira and it is very clean I always use when I kill the chickens
@@pedro2716enjoy your poo eggs
@@GoldenBoy-et6of reading comprehension is important, I never said the intestines were not the GI tract, I further simplified how the intestines would appear in the body of the chicken at the very end. The GI tract of the chicken also includes the beak/oral cavity, the gizzard, and the stomach.
And now you know and knowing is half the battle GI Joooooe
I must say, I’ve watched Sonny for a couple years now and his knowledge of food and culture has increased dramatically over time. You can really see that he is a world traveler now. Awesome work!!
Lies again? Amazon Fire Grab Jeep
I just saw this video while looking for documentaries. Well, I saw it amazing. I really appreciated how you equate the culture difference without mentioning and evaluating their kind of living. It's very educational about how people live depending to the availability of their nature. Hoping to see more about these kind of things around the world. Kuddos!
Man I love to see all the people working, the variety of food, the colors! Looks so alive. Great place Peru. Much love from Mexico!
For me it all looks dead, not alive. What’s the reason to kill anything what moves, come on
Nasty
Please have a moment to appreciate Sonny's team for the video quality. The music, edits ... overall great production team.
I know! As a Photography and Video editor crazy.. I really appreciate the Quality of production of Footage they make!😩💯
I agree man, it can be footage butchered by someone else how Sonny loves Indian food in India.
He is getting better and better everyday this channel is so precious ❤️
Exactly.
*He's Getting Better And Better Eating Endangered Species* 🤗
Love Sonny and Oro when they team up!
We need more of that!!!!!
🐣 CHISH 🐟…chicken & fish 😂🤣😂🤣
Man.....I truly appreciate your hard work and dedication! Thanks for this great show Sonny rocks 🎉 and Oro is cool 😅
I love the communities and the way they interact and live together making the best of their circumstances.
You say “circumstances” as if they know anything different. This is their life and they’re happy. Just sayin’
I saw a chimpanzee smoking on a grill. The baby was tied to the smoker. It was waiting it's turn on the grill.
I love how Sonny's video quality have gone better and better with every year. He puts so much care into each and everyone of them, and he's not putting out content half-heartedly like a lot of others. Quality over quantity and it is so worth it. Thank you Mark! I hope I can visit all these places you go to one day.
i recently tried watching one of his beginning videos and could not believe the quality change
This channel gives us quality AND quantity. He puts out like 2-3 videos per week!
Hope that you learn how English works one day
Makes me so happy seeing the amount of views and appreciation Sonny gets, so well deserved!!
The production quality of these videos are getting soooo good man. This is a programme now!
Whenever i feel like travelling... i check this channel out. You are making millions of us travel the and see the world through your eyes. Appreciated
You and Oro are a great team. You can see the actual friendship, and it's a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work, Sonny!!
@@RayaneDassouli can't even translate properly 💀
Can’t believe I have been following the channel since it had 100k+. Truely amazing where it got to right now and I am not surprised as well ❤️
No existe en el mundo un lugar más impresionante que la selva del Perú!! La comida es variada y te sorprenderías lo rico que es probar cada plato!
Quando tengo la plata, voy a visitar. Quería ir por Venezuela (Amazonia), pero la politica y porque no más alla.. Unico que no voy a lo comer es los bichos pequeños. Puede ser, si voy a vivir con alguno tribu, debo que encontrar mis miedos tambíen. Ay de tribus parecido a Amazonia centtal, no? Saludos desde Europa del Este (Lettonia)!
I LOVE PERU! Peru is my favorite country in Latin America! I recommend visiting the country, the experience with "ayahuasca" was the best! we saw pink dolphins! We fished for piranhas and reached the boiling river! a fascinating country
Thanks for investigating the monkey thing rather than overly shaming the locals. Sure, express your disagreement with the practice, but try to convince and win the person over rather than shaming and pushing them further away. Really, you toed a fine line and succeeded, as always. Wonderful show!
It's really amazing how you managed to be so funny, while being so educative. Well done guys
Oh I watch alot of your videos and this is the first time I've seen one with Oro, the new guy. I really love his personality and you two have great chemistry. Love him on the show with you!
I'm Peruvian! And if you think that Peru is only Lima and the Andes (Machu Picchu) you don't even know 30% of Peru, the AMAZON was born in Peru, the Peruvian Amazonian culture is much larger than countries like Brazil, more than 60% of the territory of the Peru is a huge jungle and the Peruvians on the coast don't know anything about that other world! the true Peruvian culture is in the huge jungles! A fascinating country. 🇵🇪
Así es... mi hogar de la Selva es Pucallpa la Tierra Colorado... hogar de Juaneco y Su Combo!!!
Never bro, the Brazilian culture is greater
@@samuelpinheiro5045nah
Proud of eating endangered spices??? Peru????
👍
The most fascinating perspective on preserving the rain forest balanced with peoples needs I have ever seen. Maybe people wouldn't get so upset about the trees if they had a more nuanced understanding of the people. Another excellent job Sonny
Honestly, I'd rather them hunt in the wild than have no wild for the animals to live in. At least then it doesn't genocide species.
@DhaliaLegacy Exactly. As long as there are virgin forests, there is an ecosystem, which cannot be killed by ancestral way of living. Machines and Oil-palm corporations with logging equipement are the real diversity genocide.
Once the trees are gone, we will excuse it with our "nuanced views" - all good, 👍🏿
This is an extremely dumb justification for destroying the rain forest.
@@001HK0 you lack that nuanced understanding. It's ok. Thee are social services you can turn to
I love how you take us into your journeys where we probably won't go to. But I think I don't have the stomach even to try some of these foods.
biggot
I love seeing the people of the different locations, so many fiery souls out there
Hands down literally the best ever food channel. No disrespect to Bourdain, but this Sonny is better in his own way. This guy is going places..... literally.
I'm so glad Sonny is doing this and we have the opportunity to almost visit different places and see how they live and what they eat and it makes me hungry watching this show and makes me want to travel and try some of the foods Sonny is lucky enough to have on his travels
It is disturbing but fascinating at the same time… I Love that you are so open towards all cultures and traditions! The world definitely needs more people like you and it’s a blessing for society to be able to see your content and the love and effort you put in!
Why is it disturbing? Americans eat meat that is raised in a 10x10 cage for its whole life, and chickens try to peck themselves to death in these cages, and they have to clip its beak so it cannot commit suicide. Enjoy your mcdonalds hypocrite.
Thank you for sharing your videos. Kind of interesting...the "armored catfish" that you showed is a Plecostomus. We use the babies as algae eaters in freshwater aquariums.
When I was in costa rica, one of the hostels we stayed at was right against the jungle. Around 6pm howler monkeys started screaming like crazy. Then in the middle of the night we heard pots and pans getting thrown around in the kitchen. The owners said they will sneak in and steal food, and if theres no food then they get real mad and just throw everything around lmao.
Sounds like my ex wife
@@umbro12 your ex wife is black?
@@EstradaDuran-sg6coget tf out of here 😂😂😂😂 hell naw boa, you bold.
@@barmayneg what did i say? 🤷♂
I could feel Oro's nervousness looking at the monkeys. I fully understand why. Monkeys are so close to human. Never could understand why anyone would eat a monkey. You need to have Oro on your adventures more often. The two of you are great together.
Poor monkeys
Monkeys are pests in a lot of places so it makes sense to eat them, but it sounds like they don't really have the agriculture there for monkeys to be a valid menu item in order to protect crops, yeah.
The fingers look just like human fingers
@@grapicusdrinktus Yes, however, the Red Howler Monkey and many of the popular ones to eat across cultures just so happen to be endangered species. Unfortunately.
@@Hiddenone995 I don't know if it just so happens to be that way lol, probably endangered because everyone is eating them.
Educational yet stressful to watch at the same time for some reason.
I love this show! You really respect both sides of the process, I’m no foodie but I am binging this show!!
Different between tht armoured cat fish in peru and our countries we call them pleco and keeps them asa algae cleaner in the aquariums and then in the peru they calling it armord catfish and they uses it as a food which comes with a very tasty head☠️
Oro is so great to have as a guest. He brings a very new kind of cheer and joy when watching these videos. Great work Sonny, and, Oro!
Oro is officially my new fav co-host. this man is a genius.
I'm really impressed by the camera angle and music. My God, You have the best team!! They are so talented!!
Your tour guide answered all of your questions candidly with honesty and with great choice of words. He is he remarkable and is well informed of everything in PERU. I believe he is very educated even with his English. His mannerism, speech and appearance reminds me of my handyman in the U.S. 😅 Sonny thank you for opening our eyes. Your videos are very educational and I am less ignorant. All I can say is that that Peruvians are utilizing what is available to them in the rich Amazon. And you are correct- is it right for people from the outside and say cut down the forest to make way for breeding livestock so that the people won't rely on eating monkeys and such? Right or wrong, the people there need to survive. AMEN.
I love this channel, it’s everything I want in a food show. Oro is Sunny’s best friend and it shows in their videos together. Thanks Sunny we appreciate you and the videos you bring to us 👍🏻👍🏻
Food is one of those things that bring the world together. We all eat and enjoy food. Love seeing different cultures and people and getting a glimpse of how they happily live their lives. And you a fire guy
One of the best episodes ❤ u two made this informative and funny sometimes more is more
Fantastic mix of different culture types of food it all lools so appetizing an you i respect the traditional ways cultures get down on some smackn ass food i love this show
Thank you so much Sonny for taking us around the world. Love watching your amazing videos🙂
Peru is the most amazing country in the world! Peru is the Southwest Asia of the Americas, absolutely no other country in the American continent, will offer you the great experiences that Peru offers you from hiking in the great mountains, first class gastronomy in Lima and the "ayahuasca tour" in the "giant tropical Peruvian Jungle", Peru is the 4th country with the most tropical areas in the world, only behind Brazil, Indonesia and the Congo. ¡Viva Peru!
Gastronomy my ass. Nature looks enviable, though.
Peru is also one of the only countries in the Americas where people have more indigenous ancestry than European. I think theres like 4, and Peru is easily the largest. So thats one reason for cultural differences.
dude, back from long time. I forgot how amazing your video was. It is not food review, it is a Netflix quality documentary
Love this episode, I'm from south Texas and as far south as you can go , I'm about 10 miles to the river that devides Mexico from the u.s and yes I live in a small town we consider country, been watching all your episodes and I love you sharing the history of where your from , thanks , I'll keep supporting and seeing all your episodes, your to far but hopefully some day i will have the pleasure of meeting you , and yes w also BBQ out here , mesquite is what we use , Country style baby !!
As an Australian, it was hard to watch these animals being used for food, but I also understand that it is their way of life, Sonny thank you for sharing how people eat and live in parts of the world I'll never see in person, cheers from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
So you guys don't eat your kangaroos or Koala's??
@Marshall Blessings Hove we eat kangaroos, but it's not so popular
@@marshybee heard that koalas taste like sh*t. They only eat eucalyptus which tastes like gasoline, so .m
@@fayazfarihi8861es igual en la selva peruana así como en Brasil, Colombia, países con selva son muy pocas personas que comen
These people are savages. Eating endangered species is absolutely pathetic.
Great video! Talking about security, you hide your security team so well. I don't even know you had security until you mentioned it in your Lagos video. Great work and thank you for showing us the world
You present content in a great way. It's very eye opening to me. Before watching this channel I would think these people are terrible for eating some of these animals but now I see they do it to survive, it's their culture. Thank you for making these videos.
the co hosts are so fun and match your energy and humour
You are amazing Sonny. I love watching your videos. Everytime I wish I was with you enjoying the experiences of learning about foods you come in contact with. Love ya 👍
Dang such a great video as always! I miss Peru so much! 🙏🏻
chris were is Gladys?
This episode was dope it had me laughing from start to finish!
yoooo, thumbs up for both of u, that's some very intelligent/aware man
One of the very few channels I check every day for content. Love it. Gave up meat 4 years ago so I live vicariously through this content now
Why would you sacrifice your own health like that? You vegans not a very smart bunch
South American rain forest could basically be its own planet its so diverse and astonishing.
I always love Oro and Sonny together ❤
I love to see these. It's a great insight to how others survive around the world.
between this show and Kurt Caz i have really been picking up on so much spanish in recent days! ive actually started to learn deeper on my own as well. thanks for encouraging me to learn a language i can speak to so many other people !
Such a diverse amount of food. Loving this series!!
Sonny takes such a good realistic approach to the problem at hand. For the better part of two years I lived in South America, and small communities are very much this way. Some of the best people in the world, but their struggles are different than other populations around the world. There is no easy fix.
probably the best ep i ever watch cross the entire youtube food channels
This really is a comfort channel. Watching these videos just instantly cheers me up, even if the subject of the video may be a bit taboo, like this one.
Absolutely love Oro, take him with you everywhere!
Cool! Been to Iquitos several times. Went up the MARANON river for 100 km for environmental work. Love Peru!
Great video. Awesome conversation about a difficult issue.
Being half Peruvian, born out of Peru, I had a hard time connecting with actual Peruvians until I lived there for a year and a half. It's very easy to pass judgment at first glance at lifestyles, but then the more you learn about the people and how really everyone is just trying to live their life, and help their family it's harder to pass judgement. And to find a solution is even harder....especially with all the government issues Peruvians have. 🙄
Cierto, como hace poco, que estuvimos a punto de caer en una dictadura, fué un golpe fatal hasta para la economia. Pero poco a poco nos estamos recuperando, aunque hay complices de la corrupcion, queriendo recuperar el poder que perdieron, tras el faIIido golpe de estado.
Hi I was born in Peru but raised in America, how were you able to move back to Peru to live there for a year? I would love to connect to my roots more as well?
@Melanie Rojas I was using a temporary religious worker visa from my church, but I know a basic tourist visa can get you there for about 6 months
@@melanierojas6614 i would not recommend you to do that at this period of time we having really big issues with venezuelan migratory crime and there is a huge problem around that, Peru isnt safe nowadays atleast not lima, you can go other citys and it feels like a diferent country bc is much safer but yeah this couple years its been crisis after crisis so i wont recomend it i live here all my life i preciate the fact that you wanna connect with your roots but this days is very dangerous
to everyone, pls keep pushing in life and never give up. can't wait to see you successful one day and May God Bless You! 🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love this channel so much, wish I could meet all the wonderful people!! Such nice people!❤✌
I love Oro 😂 We need to see him more often.
Also I find it funny how Oro will still translate Sonny Spanish into a better phrase when he tries to speak it to the locals, or how he will do the same for the guide. Even when the guide speaks English, Oro still says the same thing to Sonny just for clarity.
This is nice. This video is soo good and informative. Love it.
It’s hilarious that anytime I watch this KZhead channel I get all kinds of ads for impossible meat and vegan stuff. LOL I could be further from that. I am a carnivore through and through. And getting those on this KZhead channel it’s just comedic.
I appreciate you highlighting the difficulties of these people and their world. I only wish things could be better for them.
I love how Oro kept repeating English to Sonny as if he was somehow translating.
Love your video. They are fun and very educational
I love Peruvian food. Ceviche and seafood soup omg amazing
This has been the best episode so far. can't belive we get this for free.
Oro translating that man's English is hilarious to me for some reason. I think it's a habit when he's with Sonny and someone who is Latino.
I love the duo of you and the guy in the dreads! He is so funny!
One of your best videos! Lupet!!!
Sonny - the work of you & your team is AMAZING (as usual)! National Geographic should be funding your work!🎖🎖🎖💞💞💞😎😎😎 P.S.: Loving that your local host has ‘Australia’ written on the front of his red & white top! (As a true Australian myself!)😊😊😊
I love Peru I been many times this was a cool video
Can’t believe we get such high quality content on KZhead which is as good as National Geographic!
Very beautiful animals. Sad that they are endangered and yet are being hunted, sold and eaten. But it's a tough reality because this is food for this people. They need to eat and make money and so this what it is for now.
Quite concerning but I understand why this is happening. People will do anything to have food in the table. Not everyone is privileged enough to have or afford commercially raised livestock that is why they rely on wild game. Makes me really thankful on the life I was given.
But nature is a beautiful thing and we must preserve it.
@@gabbycarter965 go help these ppl then.
@@susmitasubedi7179 I would if I was able to do so!
Most of these people shown were overweight. I dont know what you people are talking about "help" them?? Theres nomadic African tribes that have like 30 cows in the desert and can find enough food and water for them, Im pretty sure these chunky lads can get their hands on a pair of cows, chicken and pigs and substantially farm them like every other culture instead of them wiping out the native animal species. These people arnt like aboriginals in Australia where they can hunt native species but because of the fact they keep amazing track of their kills and have an specific number allowed. These are lazy humans being greedy.
@@gabbycarter965the stfu...dont judge them if u cant help them
Any video you do with Oro, No pun intended, its Gold.
I always like the way you mention Tanzania in your videos.
Oro is a trooper and you love tormenting him! Haha 🍻
Thanks, Sonny for making this video! I realize that Peru is at another level regarding wildlife trafficking. I'm so shocked and sad to see this.
You guys never disappoint. Well done
This is Funny! When he ask are we eating shit? And the guide answers " ahh! Sometime, more and more' 🤭 Lol
“I will finish my Chish….chicken and fish” 😅👍🏾 Very creative
