    Let’s get these out of the way now:
    Random Commenter: Sonny, what the heck are you doing shooting at a time like this?
    Sonny: We’re not shooting. Our team is all safe, healthy and staying home, working from home in Vietnam where we’re based.
    Random Commenter: This type of food is exactly why we have a Corona Virus Pandemic now!
    Sonny: No. No, it’s not. Pork, duck and seafood are not related to corona viruses.
    Random Commenter: Yeah, but you filming exotic videos make other people want to eat that food!
    Sonny: Really? Did seeing me eat a bat make you want to eat a bat? I didn’t think so. I’m pretty sure it wasn’t luring anyone else in either.
    We’re documenting cultural reality that’s existed in parts of the world for thousands of years. I don’t say if it’s right or wrong. You can decide that on your own.
    Random Commenter: Well I think we should Nuke those people! (A comment I’ve sadly seen more than once)
    Sonny: It’s ok to not agree with the customs of other cultures, but don’t be hateful, ugly and spiteful. I know some of you are going through unimaginably difficult times right now. You have friends and loved ones effected by this virus, you can’t work and you might not be sure how you’re gonna pay rent in the coming months. I feel you. You’re frustrated. This situation has been thrust on all of us and none of us asked for it. Are you gonna be bitter and spiteful? Or are you gonna get out of this even stronger and more compassionate on the other side?
    Random Commenter:Your bandana is still fucking dumb though!
    Sonny: Fair.
    Random Commenter: But really, is everything going to be ok? How long can this go on for?
    Sonny: I can’t tell you when this will end. What I know, especially after traveling so much of the world is that human beings are fierce in the face of adversity. Survival is in our DNA. You are strong. You’re stronger than you think and if we cooperate together, nothing can defeat us.
    God bless. Enjoy the vid. Another one coming at you next week.

    The best thing about Sonny's videos is he himself. I've rarely seen the host of the show is both funny and equally intriqued about the food.Sonny's way of presenting and the entire team's work is clearly visible in every video. That's why I watch and rewatch ...

    To be honest, only Americans are freaked out or surprised that all the parts of an animal (eg chicken or fowl legs, or most parts of the pig, or things like the tongue or the brain) are consumed - and that they are tasty. I am European, and I grew up delighting in these - because when you grow and slaughter your own animals, you will hardly throw out things, unless actually inedible - and over the centuries people developed tasty recipes for all these.
    The one part of the animal I would never touch, though, is the nugget.
