Tribal People Try Weird Internet Products for the First Time
About this video
Unusual foods, tried for the first time by villagers from rural Punjab, Pakistan. Nobody tells them what to say. Some like it, some don't, and in the Tribal People Try way they explain exactly why.
What is unusual foods?
The strange end of the menu: century eggs, surströmming, insects, balut, natto, haggis, cheese with maggots, durian, sea urchin. Foods that are ordinary somewhere and shocking almost everywhere else.
What to watch for
These are the videos people watch for the faces, and the faces are honest. The tribe are polite about other people's food and firm about not swallowing it. Smell is the deciding factor more often than taste.
The comparison they always make
The village eats paya (trotters), brain, kidneys and liver without a second thought, so they are not squeamish about offal. Fermentation and rot are the lines they will not cross.
