Some pepperoni brands use star anise, which is the original flavor of black liquorice. That's why you taste it

I genuinely, whole heartedly, love grapefruit

"I didn't like kissing a mermaid, not gonna lie" - quote of 2019😂

*Confused voice* "Am I faking that I like it?" Hey I wasn't ready for an existential crisis question

I actually genuinely love coconut water (it’s refreshing and sometimes sweet), grapefruits (I like how it’s so sour), and okra, but not by itself😊

I LOVE coconut water, here in Ecuador we have it all the time, specially at the beach, here it’s amazing.

“It taste like someone made it who never tasted lemon before “💀💀💀😂😂

Me, a person who actually eats celery on its own and really likes it

Honestly celery with some crunchy peanut butter slaps though 😂

Wow, must have been a very bad Grapefruit... Literally no Grapefruit on this earth does taste salty. Grapefruits doesn‘t taste salty! They should usually taste very sweet, sour and bitter.

I really do love candy corn, not even trying to be qUiRkY

10:21 "italian people didn't come up with pasta for us to do this to it" 😂😂😂😂

I love black liquorice! The first time I had it I was about 4, maybe less, and there was this giant candy shop across the supermarket where my family usually did groceries. One day and my mum took me there and I saw those black strings inside a box and asked for one piece and my mum thought "Well, why not?" assuming it would be a good laugh because apparently, no one likes that thing*, little did she know it was my all-time favourite. * I assume no one likes it because it was discontinued, you can't even find it in candy shops or supermarkets. When I was 20 I went on a trip to France and needed change for the metro tickets so I went to a newspaper stand and bought a tin of pure liquorice mints and the owner was like "That's terrible, don't buy it, I'll change your money without you having to purchase that, don't worry" and I was like "No no, I like it!". My classmates thought it was some fancy-ass type of gum and asked me for a piece and boy, was it fun to see their faces. And this is why the world keeps spinning! Imagine how boring it'd be if we all liked the same things xD

Grapefruit is one of my all time favorite things. If the taste is too strong try sprinkling a little sugar on it. I was also raised on fried okra as a side dish... Then I discovered dipping the fried okra in ranch dressing. I've also never eaten caviar on crackers but I enjoy it on california rolls and other types of sushi. Also I love pasta salad. You must have gotten one that just has oil and vinegar or something instead of a more flavorful one with nice dressing and parmesan cheese.

who eats a raw okra??? no ne... literally no one.... raphael: "I'll do it"

his existential expression when he keeps eating the circus peanuts is a mood

I genuinely enjoy quite a few of those foods..ie grapefruit, capers, celery etc... I also hate liquorice and spices with the same flavour (*which they put in peperont/salami) fennel seed, anise seed, star anise, cardamom seed etc

I absolutely love black liquorice, never tasted “American black liquorice” but liquorice from any of the Nordic countries, I absolutely love 😎

3:51Raphael after trying fish eggs: “I didn’t love kissing a mermaid I’m not gonna lie” 😂😂🤣

Honestly, black licorice is the true flavor of licorice. It’s like anise or fennel... not for everyone.

I honestly love coconut water, but its flavor can change from one brand to another, some can be really bad, so I only buy some specific brands. It's really refreshening in summer, I'm addicted to it. I love liquorice candy, whether plain like the snail shaped ones or those filled with fruity sugar paste (try the Haribo brand). I like grapefruit when freshly squeezed into juice. I'm in France by the way.

I had a mini heart attack when i saw him eating raw ocra

Drinking Monster to wash down caviar is probably the trashiest thing I’ve ever witnessed. Lmao

I have 3 coconut trees at home and i drink coconut water everyday. So, the point is. Coconut water tastes so good.

When he ate Okra raw: Every Indian/Asian erked 😵🤮

I am from Switzerland and at my school pretty much everyone eats pasta salad on a daily. It’s important to make by your own and not to buy it in a plastic container since this changes the taste. And a tip to eat grapefruit is to put on some sugar. It makes it much more enjoyable...

Pasta Salad is soo good (if its homemade) you almost have it at every party where i live

"it tastes kind of bland, but still more flavorful than La Croix" 😂

I eat grapefruit with a spoon and avoid eating the membrane. The membrane is the bitter part. Avoid that and the flesh is 👌

I actually love celery... I can also eat it without a dip lol

Coconut water is so so so so so good i dont know why people that not live in tropic hate it butbits so good for me im. not lieing

I was a bit shocked when I saw him eating raw okra (lady's finger we call it in Malaysia) 😄 Because we usually eat it stir fry or boil it and dip in some special sambal belacan. Lots of love from Malaysia!

“Oh my gosh. I think I have to swallow this now “. Hahaha. Grapefruit can be good but you have to peel it like an orange and eat it from the juicy end first. But it’s definitely an acquired taste. Everything else is spot on!

I love that he pushed the tray away after he tried the grapefruit 😂

"Fresh" coconut water is the best thing in the world , those store bought ones are awful, in order to enjoy fresh coconut water visit a coastal area.

Pasta salad made right with a good dressing is amazing.

Wow I love pasta salad. Everything about it is amazing.

hey dude actually just wanna tell you that you are seriously my lucky charm and i have many reasons to say this very confidently i am watching your videos like my whole youtube recommend me your videos and i just love it and watching your videos is my hobby now seriously you deserve 20M love you lot.....!

Fennel seeds taste like licorice and sometimes it is incorporated into pepperoni.

Him:*hates celery* Me: HOW? I love celery.. Him:*hates pasta salad* Me:IMPOSSIBLE

I KNEW OKRA WAS GONNA BE IN THERE!! I love okra it's literally one of my favorite foods..dunno why people hate it so much

I actually love fondant. I could eat a buttload of it. To me it just tastes amazing

Should have tried popular ASMR foods: honeycomb, seagrapes, aloe vera, salmon sashimi...

As soon as he was cutting the grapefruit I honestly lost it. Knowing he wouldn’t put sugar or anything on it. Lmao that was so cute.

I absolutely looooove red caviar... It's soooo good on bread with some butter. But it's gotta be the real thing. Fake caviar is gross. Also, loooove love grapefruit and I love celery.

My dad planted a coconut tree at home and we enjoyed drinking coconut water regularly.

"I was gonna say it tastes like medicine but I've had better medicine in my life" *BURRNNNNN*

Do a “trying foods people fake they DONT like” 👇🏻

Ocra is so good! I've had it picked and frayed pickled it the best!

i love la croix a lot. i’ve never had soda before so la croix is good to me since i’m not used to the sugary overly powerful taste.

My Indian soul cried when he chewed okra that way P.s.- Okra tastes good when crisp fried with some salt I m being honest

Honestly I think pasta salad is amazing 😂

I had one baker that made small fondant decorations that tasted like mint on a wedding cake. That was good. Like mint candy. However massive sheets of fondant will never taste good. No one can convince me otherwise.

My dad plant a coconut tree at my house so I drink it pretty often. I wouldn't say I really love it but totally I did not hate it at all but if we're talking about the flesh, I really love it. Not the grated or roasted one but the one you freshly scoop from the shell(?). It taste amazing.

I actually like candy corn, no one has bought me any in a while.

Nobody: Cake boss: FaWnDoNT

pasta salad is one of my favourite meals..... like when the pasta is cooked just enough and it's got little pieces of cheese, apple, pickle and of course it's mixed with sauce made from sour cream.... yum :p

The flavor in black licorice that people don’t like comes from the plant anise. Fennel is another plant that tastes similar and people oftentimes use it in Italian cuisine. If you want pepperoni or sausage just ask the pizza place if there’s fennel in the sausage.

The “black licorice in pepperoni” thing is the taste of anise. Some sausage has anise in it. It’s weird.

Fennel seed and sometimes anise are in pepperoni. Both taste like licorice.

Also, agreed on a lot of this, especially black licorice, but pasta salad i loooooveee :)

Aniseed or possibly fennel can be in pepperoni which has a black licorice taste. Also if you try grapefruit with a bit of sugar on it....SO GOOD!

The connection with black licorice and pepperoni is a spice called fennel.

I don’t think caviar is supposed to be eaten with a stainless steel spoon 😂

Pikelets with cream cheese, smoked salmon and capers on top is so yum

I love celery!!! I eat it as a snack. Sometimes with peanut butter on it. Yum yum.

People say it tastes like booger Raphael: I think i like it

"this is the real deal, it's a real coconut" pops off cap🤦‍♂️😂

also circus peanuts are so good i love them

I love pastasallad but I have a cold sauce on it to make it creamier 😋 You have to think about the textures you use so you get crunchy, soft and creamy 😉 I love salty black liqorice but I come from Denmark 😊

No one is faking that they like things. I hate coffee. I can’t understand people enjoying it but I know they do. I like cilantro - others hate it because to them it tastes like soap. I don’t find joy in the flavour of chocolate but others obsess over it. People just have difference tastes.

Try drinking the coconut as soon as it falls off the tree... even better😊

You’re probably tasting the fennel seeds in pepperoni. It’s also sometimes used in sausage and in pizza sauce :) So it’s not weird that you made the connection 😋

Grapefruit JUICE is sweet, I like it. And pasta salad is awesome but if you choose the ingredients.

Raphael: I've had grapefruit flavoured things before but it tasted good S U G A R

People have different tastes. Candy corn is my favorite candy, I love the crunch of celery, but you need to cut it into thinner strips. Pasta salad, depends how it’s made. Grapefruit you cannot eat the membrane like oranges, just the pulp, because the membrane is really bitter, but the pulp is delicious. Black licorice is a strong taste, but I genuinely like it.

I genuinely LOVE fondant. It is really nice

Nooo I actually love candy corn. Idk bout that other stuff though. 😂🖐🏻 And omg I laughed so hard when you tasted the grapefruit 😭😂 figuratively died! 💀 I was like “You’re not gonna like it!”

" I was going to say it tastes like medicine but i've had better medicine my life" -Raphael 2k19

I feel like people lie about loving sprinkles. They ruin the texture of the food for me.

I love all of those foods except for kapers, pasta salad, caviar, and fondant but that's because I've never had any of them

I genuinely love coconut water, fondant, and grapefruit. Thank you

Raphael: *Talks about his opinion and random stuff* Me: Can’t stop thinking about why he got the yellow iPhone 11. 😂

I like coconut water from an actual coconut not those bottles that say 100% coconut water

Re: Black Licorice - Its because of the Aniseed. Also known as Star Anise its a relatively common spice with roots in asian, and later Italian, cooking. Pepperoni uses a lot of spices to flavor it during the smoking process and its likely Anise is one of them. Anise is the main flavor in licorice and its very distinctive for its, almost numbing, semi-bitter notes. Star Anise actually has medicinal properties that are related to anesthetics.

i looooove celery ! a little ranch dip with celery and broccoli is so yummy!

“The flavor of pasta but with no soul” 😂

1: FONDANT IS NASTY 2: COCONUT WATER IS SO GOOD

I eat so much raw celery by itself and love the taste 😹👌

I LOVE la croix. I religiously drink it. I love candy corn and also a lot of other things in this vid.

Guys he wasn’t saying that it was a fact when he said “no one actually likes this food” people are getting all hurt and stuff but it’s just food lol

Coconut water tastes disgusting West indian people: am i a joke to you?

I really love celery but we get one that's been 'destringed' so there's none of the strings? I love celery and carrot sticks in a garlic dip, that kinda stuff is so good haha. I grew up loving vegetables though so that might be it?

This video is so relatable omll

Now I know I'm not the only one who doesn't like fondant

He speak so slowly that in 1.25x speed he sounds normal lol I love him by the way, I only think that this is funny to notice

I love candy corn :3 i especially like the pumpkin shaped ones you can find.

I love coconut water. It's also great post workouts and in smoothies.
