Emmy you are always so pleasant, even with something disgusting. Never is it "omg this is effing disgusting" it's always "it's quite pungent, a bit reminiscent of vomit, with woody seeds. (Takes another bite)"
kkh369 Korean pop music. Fairly popular over the internet, with ‘BTS’ being quite well known. And if you decide to search it up, I promise that the fans are not all insane.
You ain't lyin'! The other night I was having some anxiety and couldn't fall asleep, so I decided to binge a few Emmy videos. I slept like a happy baby after that.
I agree. It's a nightly ritual to You Tube after 11pm. Hubby goes to sleep and I watch videos. I'm a night person, and dontdo well in the am until at least 9 am.
So true... she's my new go to, right b4 bed; problem is I binge her and end up staying up much later then I expected to. Oh, well... I love her. Gotta stick to good things/people, not too much out there, nowadays. 😑
"CHOW-DAH, today we will working on a very....special recipe." "OO OO! What's it called, Mung? Can I taste test it afterwards?" "No, Chowdah! We'll be making a dish that's so exquisitely excruciating amongst the world of chefs that only one person has been able to stomach the very creation of it. Today, we're going to be making...TROPICAL FONDUE!" "Tropical Fondue? But, Mung, people make fondue all the time-" "Oh, this isn't just any fondue, Chowdah... We're going to be working with the most putrid ingredient that has befallen on this cursed land: THE PUUUUUKE FRUUUUIIIIIT!!"
The thing that I love about you and your channel is that no matter how gross something is, you don't do these whole theatrical and over-dramatic reactions to things. Your knowledgeable calmness and inquisitiveness to new things is so refreshing in a sea of annoying YT click bait dramatics.
I've been watching her from the very beginning. She has always been full of wonder and delight no matter what she is doing. Other YTs could learn a lot from her. Leaving in the bloopers sends a clear message. She is genuine and embraces life with all of it's ups and downs. I look forward to many more years of entertainment and information from Emmy!!
It's sounds just awful but Emmy eats it likes it's an apple and doesn't look disturbed at all 😂 imagine any other youtuber eating this fruit. "I ALMOST DIED FROM EATING CHEESE FRUIT!!!!" While Emmy's like "This is horribly pungent and totally digusting with vile seeds and taste like actual vomit" *takes three bites and continues to smile* I love Emmy 😂❤
Emmy is a brave supertaster, and appreciates lots of flavors and textures most Americans won't tolerate. I learned that Asian cultures appreciate a "slimy" food texture like natto or cooked okra. I really appreciate how she is great at describing the experience for those of us who'd never even bother, and I've picked up some ingredient and cooking tips from her.
Hey Emmy! thought you might find it interesting that the reason why your tongue felt so tingly/numb is because of a digestive enzyme present in the fruit called bromelain. This enzyme is actually somewhat flesh-eating, because it breaks down and consumes the proteins it comes into contact with ( in this case, your mouth's proteins! ) causing the tingly sensation. bromelain can be found in pineapple too! you bite the fruit, the fruit bites back!
Island Vibe Cooking oh my goodness yes, my grandmother took Noni juice when she was sick ( did absolutely nothing and she passed in less than three months) and it stunk like diesel fuel with diarrhea.
y'know in my town these fruits would get too ripe and fall off the trees and noone would ever bother to pick them up yet they would cost that much overseas😂 maybe i should sell some stinky fruits to foreigners
These grow in my country Belize. I Know someone with like 6 or 7 of these trees lined up in a row in front of their house. Idk how they even can stand it... I hate that smell🤢🤢😱
Dima Mironovs Is that a bad thing that a person is entertained easily? The many people who say that must have sad lives judging those who have something called “a good sense of humor” or “joy.” The sarcasm wasn’t necessary.
@@mansing Yes, and the smelly part is just like onions and garlic, not vomit. I never had a durian before, but I'm sure onion-y custard is a lot better than cheesy vomit(I have tasted a noni).
I pretty much love those flavors... Well I have never tasted poop but if it tastes anything like it smells it could very well ruin the party. I'd still try it though... The fruit not the poop.
When you try your best not to describe the smell as vomit; “a but like dill pickle has that vinegary tang...a bit like a pungent cheese... and... a bit like excrement” 😂
Emmy: It smells very pungent, it reminds me a little bit of fish sauce, it’s sometimes called the vomit fruit. Emmy: let’s give our noni a taste! Itadakimasu. Only you, Emmy. You are a unique personality.
I love her! “It’s not a pleasant taste “ *proceeds to take two more bites* She is always so calm, I come to watch her mainly when I can’t sleep. She is calming to me.
In capitalism, things that are so common that no one cares about it in one place is expensive somewhere else. Enter trade. Win-win for all. It is what us humans have been doing for thousands of years.
omg listen idk how fast that fruit will ferment but PLEASE remember to burp the jar occasionally. esp. if it's not a fermentation grade jar. depending on how much gas it produces, the jar could crack
I wish I had known that you wanted to taste this fruit. I live on St John in the US Virgin Islands and this stuff grows wild here. It is never eaten by anyone so they rot on the ground all the time. We have wild donkeys and iguanas that eat almost anything plant related but neither of them will touch the noni fruit. If you decide you want more of them to possibly torture people with, let me know and I will happily send you as much as you want for the cost of shipping. I almost choked when I heard how much you had to pay for them.
Back when i used to live in Dominican Republic there was a big tree of nonis and they were actually really big compared to this but this just gave me such an emotional throwback to my childhood
I drank noni juice after my spinal cord injury and it helped me while I weaned off many medications and it's been 10 year's. Thanks I love Noni maybe we're supposed to use just the juice idk but it works.
My grandmother used to sell the juice because she said it had medicinal purposes and can actually cure cancer. I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it did help my brother with a very bad gastritis that he had.
omfg my friends mom consumed quite a bit of Noni juice while pregnant with her and she has minor birth defects 😭😭😭 (nothing severe, just a weird ear and eye)
Hi, Emmy! Can I first start by saying just how delightfully adorable the intro song was? 😂😂😂👌🏼 Side note: We don't eat the seeds. We cut it much like how you'd cut corn with a knife or apple (around the hard center). We then slice the flesh thinly and soak it in salt and water, mainly to remove some of the pungent odour and bitterness. The elders take it raw as a side dish to be eaten with rice and other dishes. Fun fact: The Noni Tree leaves are eaten too and often used as a herbal remedy among the elders due to the wide belief of its diabetes-combating properties. We boil it with some salt for quite a long time to make sure we remove all the sap, slice them thinly and mix them with a bunch of things like coconut milk, fish (that's been boiled, de-boned and shredded), shrimps, chillies, lime, sugar, salt, onions and shallots. In Malaysia, this dish is called "Kerabu Pucuk Mengkudu". (Pucuk/poo-chook/= Shoots/Leaves, Mengkudu /mung-koo-doo/ = Noni, Kerabu /kur-ah-boo/ = Salad). You can also add the thinly sliced Noni fruit flesh into this dish too. It's perhaps best described as a South-east Asian Salad of sorts. 😊 Also, please do keep in mind that much like most traditional dishes, there are many variations of the dish.
you must of missed the noni juice faze of the health community i beleive it was always a scam and never claimed to do anything since fruit and juice isnt curing anything.
I lived around noni for so many years and never never never had enough nerves to bite into one. You are so brave my dear. :) My aunt would put them in a jar like you did and set 'em on top of shelves and on top of her fridge. She'd make a hand full all the time and I believed it's what helped her live and enjoyed life to the fullest. When she passed at 106 drinking that stuff.
I love that when she's smelling something disgusting her expression doesn't really change and she's practically shoving the thing up her nose to get a good wiff XD
She’s not lying, it literally tastes like that after taste you get after throwing up. I tried the juice and would not wish that upon anyone lol, never again.
Why would anyone in the past look at that, smell that and think "it probably tastes really good." I've come to the conclusion that our ancestors were all high at least 23 hours of the day. It looks like a big, swollen Caterpillar, probably poisonous from its ghostly colour. Just.... no.... Please keep us updated on all of this. Maybe you can try baking with it too!
@@DramaisFunny I'm mostly talking about the first person to do any of that. It's all good after you find out it's not poisonous and totally edible, but before.... that person had to be ballsy
Shadé Palmer maybe they were just really hungry. She said it was eaten during hard times. And ppl still serve it today so it’s prob an acquired thing. Like how pretty much only Americans eat peanut butter. Or jackfruit 🤷🏼♀️
There is actually a quite established method in which herbalists and foragers of old tested new plants and herbs- for edibility as well as medicine. It involves applying on patches of skin, diluting with water, holding it in the mouth without ingesting etc. If our ancestors were not so precautionary we would not have made it very far.
@@sassora Again, I'm talking about the very first person to do all of these things. Not people who have obviously had methods to figure them out. The first person to drink milk probably didnt think to test if it was ok. The first person to taste cheese or yogurt most definitely was a bit screwed in the head, especially since those foods take a bit actually be made. I'm not just talking about this food, but all foods in general from the first inkling of humans. You can't tell me cavemen had a fool proof way of testing every plant that the gatherers picked up.
Abbarane Arts this fruit is known to have numbing effects. also, an allergic reaction cannot occur if she has not had a prior interaction with the fruit.
I swear, Emmy could try something made of literal feces and she'd find the classiest way to describe the flavor, meanwhile I would be gagging 😂💀 (Edit) love you Emmy
we have tons of Noni trees here in Puerto Rico :) , we use it for medicinal purposes, for example, blood pressure and heart treatments... also, for soap!
My late grandma used to boil the ripe ones to make a juice, apparently as a remedy for high blood pressure. It actually works! And the young leaves of the tree is eaten raw with rice and sambal.
At home in Sri Lanka, we have a tree and i have never eaten any of it. It stinks and looks like a smashed dragon fruit. But it is used as a traditional medicine in our country. Anyway thank you for educating about this.
Currently in hospital using the last of my data to watch this! Missing the fact that I always watch your vids now with my near one year old girl (who I haven’t seen for w few days being unwell 😢)... can’t wait to show her this one! She always smiles when she sees you and I say, “yay! It’s Emmy!” Hehe
when she related it to fish sauce i knew it smelled bad. we accidentally poured fish sauce in a hot pan (we didn't know you couldn't do that) and the smell in the kitchen was horrendous. my family ended up not being able to eat what we cooked cause we were so disgusted.
We had this in front of my grandma's house when I was a kid. My grandma would boil them and use them as herbal medicine(not sure what for). I hated when I would step in the fallen fruits. It was like stepping in dog poop.
