Tribal People Taste Test Dutch Stroopwafels
About this video
In this Tribal People Try episode it's european food. The tribe look it over, ask the questions anyone would, and then taste it and give the honest answer.
What is european food?
European food outside Italy and Britain: French cheese and pastries, German sausages and pretzels, Spanish paella and tapas, Greek gyros and feta, Swiss fondue, Scandinavian fish. Dairy-heavy, pork-heavy in places, and mostly mild.
What to watch for
Anything with melted cheese passes; anything fermented or cured — aged cheese, pickled herring, surströmming — does not. Paella is judged as a plain pulao; gyros as a kebab with yogurt sauce, which is high praise.
The comparison they always make
The tribe eat halal, so pork dishes are swapped for beef or chicken versions in the videos. Cured, cold, or sour foods have no village precedent and get the most cautious reactions.
