Wait, Tribal People Try Nutella?!
About this video
Tribal People Try sits the tribe down with Nutella chocolate. It's filmed in the village, not a studio, and what you see is what happened on the day.
What is chocolate?
Chocolate from the shops: Cadbury, Hershey's, Lindt, Kinder, Toblerone, Ferrero Rocher, and spreads like Nutella. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate and white chocolate each get a different reaction, and dark is the hardest sell.
Nutella comes from Alba in northern Italy, where Pietro Ferrero stretched scarce post-war cocoa with local hazelnuts; the jar as we know it dates from 1964.
What to watch for
Milk chocolate is liked at once. Dark chocolate — bitter, drying — is where the faces come from, and eighty-per-cent bars are treated as a prank. Nutella is the runaway favourite in almost every chocolate video.
The comparison they always make
Chocolate is available everywhere in Pakistan, but as a small bar for children, not something adults eat. Older participants often say they have not had it since they were young.

It's the tribe's 3rd chocolate video out of 25. They first tried it in October 2020 ("Tribal People Try The Ferrero Rocher Challenge"). With 1.4M views it's the most-watched chocolate episode on the channel. The video runs about 8 minutes, went up in November 2020 and has 34.2K likes.
