The fact that y’all threw her in the deep end with the first dish as raw crab is crazy lmao
If you start at the deep end, the shallow waters feel like nothing!
Yeah I love seafood and even I would hesitate with gejang just bc I've never had raw crab before. It was a definite risk
she took it like a champ tbh a lot of picky eats I know start gagging and throwing up
Gotta give Lizzie kudos for trying. I've seen people barely taking nibbles of food, and stop. Lizzie went back for a second bite without prompts. Good job!
Yeah, props to the folks that go for a second bite! Always! 😅
Lizzie is actually quite hilarious. Props to her for trying even though she didnt like it. Great sport.
She did a really good job. She didnt say mean things, she tried her best and really tried to swallow everything. Thats what trying new things is all about. It makes me feel a bit better about wanting to try marinated crab.
Definitely. Hope you go for it and try sometime! Quite a rewarding food!
So glad that Lizzie found something that she liked in the end! As someone who also isn't the biggest fan of seafood, props to her for trying them all haha
"baby elephant dying" LMFAO
Good on Lizzie for trying. I'll eat almost anything but I do understand people who are like "not for me". Whoever can talk themselves into it tho, should try.
She's a trooper
Agree! Stepping into the unknown leads to all kinds of good possibilities and memorable experiences 😅. I'm glad I rolled the dice and started trying the (supposedly) more "exotic" Korean foods years ago, because I've learned to love just about all of it!
@@watcherthis is sad
@@watcherhow much is a budget for overseas shows? compared to domestic shows. no one came here for this content
@@user-nc8kg8nl7lvery sad of you to still be fixated on something that happened 3 months ago, yeah
So impressed that Lizzie tried all those dishes. I love seafood and thought they all looked amazing but I can’t imagine someone who doesn’t like seafood trying some of those dishes. Definitely some challenging dishes. Now if I was there, nothing would be left on those dishes 😂😂😂.
As a picky eater myself, this was an impressive showing from Lizzie. It's expected that the raw items would give her more issues since it seemed like texture was such a big hurdle for her and it's not surprising that the chili lobster would have been her "favourite"
Huge props to Lizzie what a trooper
She's a real one for real
@@watcher haha does she pay 6 bucks a month to be a real one or if not thanks for kicking it haha
@@user-nc8kg8nl7l every single comment you’ve made on this channel has been a diss. Are you getting enough attention and love at home? :)
@@James-pk2ei no
Considering how overfished the oceans are, it's more for us. I'm not side-eyeing people who don't have a palate for seafood; just means more for seafood lovers.
Exactly. This is the take!
It's a little evil thought but yes 100% agree
@@threvorpaul I didn't overfish the oceans. It's a hard fact but I'm not evil for bringing it up. Maybe more of us need to watch documentaries about environmental degradation and bring it up more often. Our children deserve it.
Learn to read and with context. Especially here with your own comment as the origin. And me saying "I agree with you" 🤔
Nowhere did I say YOU are evil or YOU overfished the ocean 🤦🏽♂️
The evil is related to you feeling gleeful/happy that others don't like seafood but you do and you feel happy about their "misery".
@@KimJayViet are u stupid? genuinely?
The flow of this episode is so natural and the intro is stellar. Proud of Lizzie for going outside her comfort zone ☺️
I'm proud of her and sympathise with her, as I myself have eating difficulties (for reasons of texture and health problems) but I'm also a bit jealous because I love seafood and fish. It's probably the only thing I can always eat without difficulty (unless it's not fresh or the person is a terrible cook).
Didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I did 😂 She's such a trooper, but Lizzie's reactions are hilarious
Appreciate Lizzie tried, but not sure how I felt about this episode. As a foodie, I love seeing people enjoy and the food that they're eating!
I love seeing folks enjoy a variety of foods that I personally wouldn't try (some sort of vicarious living, I suppose), but as a fellow picky eater who has had a rocky past with seafood, I love episodes like this where I can see other people going out of their comfort zones, and I'm inspired by their courage. It's also just nice to feel seen, especially with things like textures bogging down certain dining experiences and food styles.
This has been my favorite episode. I moved from New Orleans to Chicago, and have been baffled by the midwestern "I don't like seafood" crowd.
To be fair to the Midwest, I was always told "don't buy seafood if you can't see the sea." And I think that the people who said that are right, because the difference in the quality of seafood between a landlocked state and a state with a coastline is HUGE.
I love Lizzie so much, her mom also seems like a REAL character
her ending was the best part. haha great episode
Love this episode concept. Lizzie is great. Awesome to include another member of the production team. It's also great seeing a woman featured the whole episode. Really enjoying Travel Season. Great job, so far. 👍🏾
The oysters made me think of Andrew saying “They’re basically just snot rocks”
One, Steven please come sit across from me while I try all the foods that scare me. Two, Lizzziiiiieeeeeeee I love you. This was such a good time, thank you!
This episode was absolutely priceless, my wife and I were almost crying laughing! My wife is a texture girl as well! Loved it!🔥🔥👏🏻👏🏻
Lizzie's emotional support glass of water is working overtime😂
I don’t usually like or comment videos but because Lizzy tried these dishes I gotta give this video a round of applause 👏👏👏❤
Lizzie you're so real for this. They straight up tortured you and you took it so willingly.
Raw shrimp and oyster on basically her first go at seafood is a lot to ask! 👏 Good on Liz plus it's not like every Korean person will like oysters or even seafood as a whole either 😂 all g
as someone who struggles with food textures a lot, i definitely feel for lizzie but appreciate her trying all this all the same! i'd love to be able to do something like this with friends but sometimes that gag reflex with whatever my brain registers as a "wrong" texture is a beast to deal with
She powered through and we love her for it. Also s-tier handle kugrash4life.
@watcher LETS GOOOOO WATCHER CONFIRMED KUGRASH FANS
I’m right there with you my gag reflex is SO sensitive to some stuff like I’m trying man but my body is rejecting this
Big ups Lizzie!!! You did it! I've had string cheese and an apple for breakfast too! Don't let him hate on you! LOL
Omg as a seafood texture hater, I totally related to Lizzie and I appreciate her trying it damn
she's awesome. please have her try more foods. i'm loving her genuine journey
As someone who is not a big fan of sea bugs, I felt her pain.
Props to her for pushing through to the end though!
Lizzie is adorable
This is what I like to see in people -- the willingness to try despite the preconceived notions of how they'll experience the food. Obviously, it can pain some people to see other people not enjoy the food that they love, but it's such a good thing to not say no but that you're willing to try it once.
THE FAMED LIZZIE EP
i think steven's math analogy was basically him trying to induce a ratatouille-taste-fireworks moment for lizzie.
Lizzie nation rise up!!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Huge props to Lizzie for trying the food but this is so hard to watch. That poor girl. I feel so anxious watching her struggle. 🥲
Lizzie as a person who doesn't like seafood myself, I understand you!
Go Lizzie for being a good sport b/c I would’ve puked that oyster up! But loving this series you guys nailed it yet again! Love to see how you’re focusing on the places!
More Lizzy! She's brave and open!
Lizzie is truly happening the most in here
Hearing Lizzy say she'd rather skydive again instead of eating the raw crab and then taking that big bite full of roe is so funny to me 😂 Mad respect to Lizzy for jumping in, this was a cute video
Massive props to Lizzie 👏👏👏 What an absolute champ
She is so hilarious
If someone doesn’t like certain food this is the last thing I would do to try to get them to like it…this is on the extreme end
Thank you so much for bringing this series back (in a way) and improving upon it. Thank you!
I hope they let the restaurants know what was up so they didn't think they messed up. 😂 Lizzie, you were so brave! Proud of you!
More Lizzy content. Love seeing more girls on the channel and she’s funny even if she doesn’t know how to enjoy good food 😂
Taking notes ✍
that's a clean shell
Understand Lizzy completely. I have expanded my horizons during my college experience and beyond but sometimes still struggle 😅 felt when she said “they have faces” 😂
LIZZIES UNITE!
Oh yeah, the faces can really set some people back 😂 I applaud her bravery, big time!
You have not lived until your food has fought back.
Good on Lizzie for trying. Most people just don’t eat what they don’t like.
Ive always had a bad time with oysters but i still hold out hope that one day someone will introduce me to an oyster that doesnt make me gag
fried oyster my be a good way to enjoy them if its the slimey texture that makes you gag
@@MegaMike3443ooo that might be it
@@LadyWoot Fried oyster is one of the few seafood dishes I actually enjoy.
A much smaller one, they're sweeter. The big ones taste like sea snot. I'll eat them but...the small ones are delicious
Kumamotos are a great gateway oyster! They're smaller, sweeter and firmer in a good way
raw marinaded crab is one of my FAVORITE things but it's so hard to find in america.
I'm also cracking up watching her eat this crab. this poor girl 😂😂😂
Definitely. It's just one of those Korean foods that are really hard to find over there, especially with matching quality. But it makes coming to Korea all the more special I guess!
You can find them at Korean market like h-mart, etc
A lot of Korean restaurants actually have them on their menu now!
@@kennykim4783 like premarinated? before I even tried them from a restaurant I bought some frozen blue crabs from h mart and used a recipe for the marinade and made my own during quarantine. when I finally tried it at a restaurant I was surprised I was spot on with it and it tasted just as good. I'm too scared to get the live ones from h mart and make them more fresh but one day I'll try to do it from the live fresh ones they have out in the bucket 😅
@@callmecynthiaa I've found some spots recently that specialize in them so I've been able to enjoy them at restaurants more now!
Love her! Add more of her to the show!!
As a semi picky eater, love this show idea!!!!
As a fellow sea food hater, I resonated with all of her reactions and comments 😭😂
I think maybe you did the equivalent of throwing someone who can barely doggy paddle into the deep end of the pool, I feel like she needed to be eased in. That is so funny the whole thing about all seafood being creamy in texture, I never thought about it. Great video!
Hot take- I realize everyone meant well but this was insufferable.
Watching a friend struggle through food she is not enjoying for a laugh I suppose. I felt bad for Lizzie. Sorry but no.
As someone with very very extreme food aversions, I know exactly how she feels. I would absolutely never.... Poor Lizzie. She better have gotten hazard pay for that. I hope she's enjoying her BTS fantasies in Korean.
Lizzie is so strong for this! Love her and Steven's dynamic in this one.
Love this series!
3:09 💀💀💀💀 man that genuine Lizzie expression LOL! She's a trooper, love her! I think Steven's onto something though.. great job Steven.
Kudos to Lizzie for popping that seafood in her "soft, sweet body" lmao
Lizzie is so cute! Loved the episode
Lobster gang rise up! 🦞
that's a Watcher TV Roundtable reference 😅❤
😂 love it
Omg Lizzie’s Midwest accent. Wonder where she is from
The show is finally picking up steam. More personalities, please!
Love yall but plz stop these food and game shit.. back to paranormal and scary stories
god i love ganjang gaejang its cold, creamy a little sweet. its like such a pure delicious flavor. so so good with hot rice and a spoonful of the marinade. thanks lizzie for trying!
Completely. It's such a uniquely pleasurable food 😑 I wish everyone would try it once or twice in their life!
There’s a difference between actually putting a “whole piece” of new food in your mouth and just giving it a nibble. Lizzie is an abso-f&$!ing-lute champ at actually trying smth new throughout the whole video. Like the amount of positivity she’s trying to endure with something that scares her especially to put in your mouth takes an insane amount of courage. Huge kudos, wow!
IMO most of our food preferences get imprinted in our very early childhood which is why I am immensely grateful for being born into a Korean family. I don't see Lizzie ever truly loving raw marinated crabs 😂.
We talk about mother tongue in regards to languages but it definitely applies to food preferences.
I am fascinated with this topic honestly 😂 As someone that didn't like certain Korean foods at first but now loves some of those very same foods, I'm a big believer that some folks can adapt and enjoy new flavors/textures. But there are all kinds of eaters out there 🙂
@@FlavorofMind I believe that biology plays a greater role than psychology. During my early developmental years I was exposed to fermented foods (kimchi, Korean miso), seafood with different textures (sashimi, dried squid) and spicy food. So as an adult my body does not perceive, for instance, stinky cheese, durian, fermented skate or Buldak ramen to be a physical threat. Of course psychology/cultural conditioning over time has also made me appreciate these foods/delicacies.
@drdanyu I definitely agree that biology is a big part of it, no doubt. But I also know people that have made some big changes in what they will or won't eat, and I have to believe some of that is a mix of sensory and psychological. I used to detest cilantro, for example, and now I enjoy eating it by the handful. I can't explain why exactly 🙂 but I believe there are plenty of others out there who are capable of such a shift.
That intro music hits different 👌
Yeah, love it! I'm here for the food, but there are so many little production twists to enjoy in these videos!
Anyone know the song? Shazam returns nothing :(
It doesn't sound anything like it but it gives me Anthony Bourdain no reservation vibes
@@veryclaro looking at the description looks like it was made for the show so idk if its released anywhere
im autistic so Lizzie's struggle hits VERY close to home lmao i have such an issue w texture (and smell) when it comes to A LOT of foods
I love when people don't eat things I enjoy. More for me, and I never have to worry about them eating something I've bought for myself. Me and my whole family love avocados and when I was living at home I had to fight for every single one I ate, now I'm married and grown and my husband hates avocados so every one I buy I also get to eat.
Lizzie! You're an angel!🤘❤️
She's so real for all of that. Most relatable thing I ever saw, except she tried more than I ever would, kudos!
from Lizzie's pov those lobster tanks in the beginning are kinda scary lol 🦞 #LobsterGangRiseUp
omgg i lovee this so muchh, best best best !!!
I have a couple of mates who are picky eaters and it’s mostly down to texture or a hardwired belief that they will hate something before even trying it.
One of them was a picky eater as a kid and their mum took the path of least resistance and just fed them processed beige foods until they were old enough to move out. At that point it will go one of two ways, either continuing in the same manner, or throwing yourself into a whole new world of culinary wonders.
That being said, the same mate also sits somewhere on the spectrum and has a few sensory issues going on, one of which revolves around the texture of food. He’s trying to expand his palate, but he has an almost supernatural ability to be able to order a cheeseburger no matter where we go to eat. Honestly, it’s impressive.
All that drama for this content... hell of a tv show
On that "few months later" third oyster she was definitely a few drinks deep lol , but good on you Lizzie, we're proud of you for going on that seafood journey !
I kind of like how this is turning into How I Met Your Mother vibes. Great intro, but now inviting friends. This is an episode where Ted, Marshall, and Barney bring Robin to try seafood. Ooo, maybe this is why Lily and Robin love Korean massages!
Jesting aside, great work, y’all. We love the work you do behind the scenes to make this possible. Thank you for the hard work!
i really love how the show is so elevated from what it used to be before , the intro is top tier ♥ sadly no big bite Adam this episode hhh
Totally... so well done. They're stepping up their game!
who do you think ate all those crabs off camera lol
As a Korean who is also very picky about seafood (my main issue is certain smells and textures), I don't blame her 😁
i'm so proud of Lizzie! great sport!
Kudos to her for being such a good sport about it all. It’s hard to try new things.
As a seafood lover, this was an extremely frustrating episode to watch because i would have eaten everything 😅. Prompts for trying though.
Haha, me too... I say try everything if you can, when it comes to food. But in the end I realize not everyone will think the same way 😂
Normally I like watching people enjoy their food but this was so funny because she has such a good personality.
No money to remain on youtube, but enough money to fly to Korea for a meal. Sure.
Yeah I cant lie, after the drama these videos just dont hit the same. Its like they tried to kick us out of the car with the paywall shit, only so they can create content the grand majority of their viewers do not want to see. If they could not afford to create their content pre paywall, they simply were not being wise with their financials. Of course they will argue that as creators they want to create stuff they personally want, but they built audience of viewers with free content that was a completely different genre then this. We loved the idea of watcher because it was straying away from BuzzFeed style videos, and allowed them a platform to continue the unsolved, history and paranormal video format. This shit doesnt fit the Watcher brand (this shit feels like a buzzfeed video which i cannot stand)
Lizzie is awesome! More Lizzie content please! 🙏🏼
Lizzie my beloved 🖤
😍
A dish she may like is godueneo gui (grilled mackerel). Another dish she may like is kkotgetang (spicy crab soup). She doesn't have to eat the crab (I actually don't like the way the crab turns out in the soup, but she may like it), but the crab enhances the flavor of the soup. She should also try grilled eel, but spicy and non spicy versions.
Steven: "Raw Marinated Crab"
Me instantly: "Oh, THAT particular Worth It Episode"
As someone who doesn’t like seafood as well, kudos to Lizzie for trying everything and not really creating a fuss.
As someone who also does not eat seafood and has gone skydiving, Lizzie is a girl after my own heart
I love Korean style raw marinated crab but starting with that is pretty advanced for someone who says they don't like seafood. Ahaha.
I love this cause my friend groupe isn’t adventurous at all so I introduce them to seafood and now they love it.❤❤❤❤
Good on you for trying Lizzy… they really threw you in the deep end with all the raw stuff! Just happy you tried and were respectful about it. Thank you!
I'm 100% here for Lizzie content.
Is this old content.. no. It's different., buy It's not bad
