Tribal Kids vs Adults Eating Challenge | Food vs Kids
About this video
A challenge episode from Tribal People Try: vegetables, the tribe, and a fair fight. Watch who reaches for the water first.
What is vegetables?
Vegetables the village has never seen: avocado, asparagus, artichokes, kale, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, beetroot, and western ways of cooking familiar ones — raw, steamed or roasted rather than cooked down in a bhujia.
What to watch for
Raw or steamed vegetables taste unfinished to people who cook every sabzi with onion, tomato and spices until soft. Avocado is the recurring mystery: not sweet, not sharp, buttery. Brussels sprouts are declared to be small cabbages, correctly.
The comparison they always make
Aloo gobi, bhindi, karela, saag — vegetables are half of village eating, but always spiced and cooked through. The western habit of leaving a vegetable to taste of itself is the difference.
