"Why couldn't you make 50 lbs. of hot dogs?"
I burst out laughing!!
"they have hard time breathing, that's how you know the Russians are done" HAHAHAHA this is funny!!!!!
But I'm not sure if you know that he wasn't joking. That's the way you let go your guest from your home, because there is no such humiliation to a host as a feeling that his guest has gone out of his doors still slightly hungry. It's a big shame to a host (no exaggerations).
Brilliant. I guess I ve been doing it right all the years. I get upset when people don't eat well at my home
I'd like to add that in Russia (or any ex-USSR country) when you come to somebody's house unexpectedly, most often you are being almost forced to sit down and eat without even being asked whether you're hungry or not :)
:)
thats true and we bring the same mentality to whatever country we move too, i moved to canada when i was 8 years old and my mother overfeed all my friends..lol
Shifftee sounds like my family. And if a guest stops eating the host encourages them to eat more. Death by overeating. 😂👍
@LovelyChip ! Same goes for Kazakhs
Same for Greeks! Number 1 rule in Greece: 1. If you visit some Greeks house, prepare for yiayia to stuff you with truck load of gyros, meat and spanakopita! If you so no you officially pissed her off and will be offended for a bit maybe...but will still over feed. 2. If you quiet...DONT go to greek party unless you wanna be greekified! If you vegan...Stavros and his pork will change you!👍 3. If you are at greek gatherings prepare for the aunties and millions of generations to start hours long chat and if you refuse toulas hundred years chat then family feud happen for next hundred generations..also if you wanna not get hurt then get fat or harden up because the aunties will surely call you underfed.😂
Tea is lubricant for the soul! ☺️☺️☺️
isn't it?! :)

@@CrazyRussianDad Brilliant metaphor Sir уважать
One thing I always notice is that in America, a person can come over and no food or drink will be offered. Most of the time, in a Russian home, even if you are uninvited, tea will be served and some kind of sweet will be on the table, whether it is cookies or some candies or varenye. In an American home, it's completely fine to not offer anything. Some may offer water. Also, this is not an etiquette thing, but a food thing - in America, every beverage is cold and served with ice on top of it. In Russia, it's always hot tea, no matter if it's winter or summer. Majority of Russians still cook from scratch, unless they have been spoiled by America. Most Americans will serve a composition of warmed up packaged and/or canned (store bought) processed food. Just some of the reasons I am thankful to have grown up in a Russian culture and in a Russian family - it was just better etiquette wise, not communism wise.
ServeGod33 a
ServeGod33
ServeGod33 Fr every time some one comes over to my house, my mom always puts tea and some sweets
I have never been to the MidWest - but have always wanted to - I felt there was a reason I have wanted to visited that area now that you have shared this with me. :)
ServeGod33 In Brazil we ALWAYS offer coffee, juice or milk if the guest doesn't like it and whatever we have to eat.
I absolutely love Russian food; I would go with my Russian friends after church and I would always eat at their house or family gatherings, I can't remember any of the names of the dishes but they were so good.
So true about the full table. One thing you missed about dinners with Russian family - so many toasts!
Are you hungry? You suppose to refuse! I am laughing my head off! Cause it's true!!!
yes!
Actually it is not that difficult to be a guest in Russia, at least not if you are a foreigner :-) And once you have experienced the warmth, hospitality and generosity in a Russian home or datsha, you'll always want to come back.
Amen, brother!
just simply.. dacha...:). Accent on first syllable.
I call it "countryside house"
@@mmcblk05studio How about "country house"?
@@Plusle843 yeah neat
Хахаха , как всё в точку . Живу в Бельгии , когда приглашаю в гости местных , они поражаются с количества еды за столом )
haha
Tea is lubricant for the soul....words of wisdom my friend!!!
thank you! ;)
Bit different with Serbs. Tea is only drank if you are sick. We drink coffee like mad and smoke like chimneys.
And if someone offers you to eat with them, you must say yes, its an offense to say no. But it depends how its asked. If you are asked 'are you hungry' in a passing somewhat manner, than you would say no. But if you are told, 'Come come, eat with us comrade" then its v impolite to say no. Hard to explain.
But everything else is the same.
Americans like tea and coffee. But coffee in the morning, tea before bed.
I was shocked in a good way seeing how close Azerbaijani traditions are to Russians :)) Everything you said is exactly the same here. it made me smile a lot seeing the hospitality and kindness of Russian people. I love you guys, big big love from a post-soviet country 🇦🇿❤❤
In English, the loaded party table you describe is called the groaning board.
Thank you for your super duper-tutorial on Russian food etiquette. I think Russians are like many other cultures that have a philosophy of hospitality!
I believe Russians are great. I am a big fan of the honey layer cake and sweets. Russian's make uniquely awesome cakes
... the best ones are basically French-influenced sweets: napoleon, eclair, and variations thereof... Some are Czech (torte Pragah..) Very good Hungarian natives.... Most Russian authentic baked goods have savoury fillings, like fish...Bliny are probably Russian originals (the ones made with yeast...). Blinchiki, those are crepes....Though cabbage fillings are definitely Russian invention; as well as sour cherry ones. IMO...
Rich cakes with poppy-seeds-ground-with-honey... Eastern European, I think; very rich yeast dough. It was the desert my mother always made for our family birthdays; in the shape of krendel. I think the recipe is in that Stalin-era food-bible, 'книга о вкусной и здоровой пище'....I still have it in my basement...
I've live in US for almost 39 years, but one never forgets the childhood.. Oh nostalgia for one;s youth...;)
2:00 Yep, that is exactly right - you got a plate in one hand, a can of coke in another and have f..ing clue what to do with it and how to eat.
Most shocking is bringing your own alcohol to a party in North America. In Russia if you host a party you buy alcohol ahead for all! And also if you invite people to a cafe for your birthday in Russia you pay for all your guests. In North America if you are invited to a cafe or restaraunt does not mean they pay for you, usually you pay for yourself.
Elizaveta Fedo I need to go to more Russian parties then
lol, awesome :) I hate when my kids friends go through our fridge :/ stay out of it . ha ha
Lena Maylov I agree. I was raised that it was bad manners. I would ask my grandmother for permission to go in the fridge until she got annoyed with me. LOL I would never do that at my friends' parents' houses. You have to respect a person's home.
The best cultural differences pep talk I've ever heard :D Laconic, true, humorous ;) Thanks!
I'm in an apartment in Parnas in St Petersburg, and I introduced my neighbors and Russian friends to American southern buttermilk biscuits, and to pulled pork barbecue. They loved it!
Very Cool snippets of wisdom.. delivered with a healthy dose of Russian type humour and self-deprecation. Thank you.
LOL Sounds like my Southern grandmother and mom. No room on the table.
I am loving your videos. I did not know my great-grandmother was Russian until after she died. I am really enjoying learning that SO many things that were common in our family was Russian tradition.
OMG smb had posted one of your videos in FB group "Рускоговорящий Chilliwack" and now I can't stop watching lol, SO TRUE about opening the fridge....when smb opened my fridge (I'm in Canada) at my place I WAS SHOCKED didn't even know how to freaking react on that!!! but got used to it slowly :))))) Wish you millions of subscribers
thank you! :)
Wow, do you know people who, if you invite them to your house, open your refrigurator without even asking?
I would kick them out the moment I saw that.
Marcel Bruinsma in our family, the first time you visit you are a guest. The second time you visit you are family. Guess it's just a Midwestern thing.
was about to say this.
This guy is awesome
thank you!!
Americans soup в банках едят
А мы борщик кушаем
Hey Crazy Russian Dad - you are the best!
well THANK YOU!! :)
I haven't stopped laughing yet. This was excellent....soooooo funny. By the way, I consume lots of tea so my soul must be in pretty good shape:)
Excellent video! You had me laughing throughout the whole video but I learned a lot, Thank you!
you made my day! от смеха чуть под стол не упали я и муж , хотя не знаю от чего, все сказанное Вами -правда )))) будете в Хьюстоне -заходите в гости !
The refusal of food as a guest is the same in Iranian culture called ‘tarov’. You could be on the brink of starvation, dehydration and fighting for your last breath, but you must refuse 2 times, then accept the third...
Great culture, I love Russia
man, i wish these videos were available when i was training to live in russia for 2 years.... so what do you do when they offer vodka, and you are in the countryside and then they ask you to teach 3rd grade?
Please make more videos like this. Its very enjoying
Thank you for this entertaining and enlightening lesson on Russian food etiquette! I have a question: if you sit down to eat at a Russian friend's house and everything is good until they offer you a dish that has something you are allergic to, what do you do then? Is it culturally acceptable to decline certain foods for health reasons?
i would certainly decline! but then again, Russians do not believe in allergies, so you are in trouble either way.
@@CrazyRussianDad Just great! Death or dishonor? Hmm... I'm afraid I'll have to go with dishonor. 🤣
@@lc3207 He is joking )))
Wow this explains a lot that I wish I had known sooner. Thanks, Russian Dad.
Thank u for the good advice :)
Like you described Serbia acsept tea part. We are coffee lovers. :)
I love it, I am planning to go to Russia next year so I need all the advice I can get
First I Love😘 your channel. I'm from Ohio. I thought my heritage was Mom Polish and Dad German but I'm thinking I might be Russian, which I would love.😘 Third generation in America that's me. My Mom and both Grandma's filled the table like you said. 😂😋 We needed a bigger table for food and people, So my Mom put 2 tables together with very nice long tablecloth. She would have roasters of food as well. The hotdog comments had me rolling laughing because my Mom said you never run out of food. Now sadly Mom has past on to heaven. Now I fill the table. Love to you and young boy.😘 wishing your whole family good health.😀
Awesome channel, brother!!! Learned loads.
This is brilliant !
4:45 Ok. But what happens when all the person has is caviar, pickled herring and pickles? Because if that is the case I’m saying bye and won’t even bat a glance next time I see that person. I can live with rejection and also rejecting others. In fact I’m too good at it.
I💓 love Russian people I'm from India 🙏🇮🇳
same in southern Italy, they get offended if you don't eat until you can't breathe. If you're a Northern Italy guy and have a Southern Italy girlfriend you'll be part of the family, so it's even harder. The opposite happens with alcohol in Northern italy, especially north-east.
overfeeding your guests is simply normal! I laugh, but it's all true!
3:38 Hahah
7th comment!!!!!! To me, everyone has their own attitude towards things, no matter their nationality.
Make a video explaining how was life in the USSR
What do Russians eat in summer since most of the year it is cold there and they eat rich and heavy foods???
неплохо лечишь отец))
omg i’m literally drooling and my stomach hurts 😂😂😂
Pretty good!
Fork in the third hand 😂 😂 😂
It seems Italians are somewhere in between on most points.
If you can see the tabletop the host was lazy. 😅
The table like struggling 😘😘😘 you are so sweet
"For the Russian, it's an impossible question. They might even pass out."
Straight to the point👍
I wonder if it's your real accent or you just mock? )))
Whenever my American friend comes over, she always sits on the table to eat, then my Russian and Ukrainian parents talk to me, and they say shes weird, does that have to do with Russians?
The “are you hungry “ thing is the same in New Zealand :) it’s rude to interrupt a meal and eat there food
Priceless!!! :-)
+Lorik Golden Canvas thank you!! :)
Starting to think I might have been raised Russian by my grandmother. It's really funny because she was an American raised Scott/Englishwoman. Also, I do not think it is possible for me to refuse tea. That, and she always filled the table, every meal, not just gatherings. No wonder I was a fat kid lol.
Здравствйте из Канзас! Мне нравятся ваши видео. Молодец!
CRD Southern ppl will never take no for answer when asking if you are hungry. They will stuff you full of food then make you eat more😂 then comes dessert and yes you better eat all of that too or granny will be offended 😂😂😂
Karen West my gran would stuff us, we'd sit around the table visiting and then she'd stuff us some more. If we weren't waddling she would guilt us into eating more.
You look really good
I love it 😄😄😄😄
Similar to Asian etiquette.
Parts of this remind me of Life Of Boris,
Ya lyublyu chai!!❤
lol loved it....
You look good when you shave ;)
I believe the Russian method and the US South are identical in this respect
I love that Russians go all out and cook and put out tons and tons of food so guests can have how much they want. We’re so stingy here it’s sad. My mom would get annoyed if I wanted to put out more stuff because we shouldn’t give people all our food....meh whatever I think it’s a good thing! Now I know Russians are better hosts!
I honesty don't like fast food BUT I looove ketchup. And French fries
french fries are a must!!!
Кэн ю спик визаут рашн акцент?
After watching this, I'm pretty sure my mom is a Russian. (Hello from сша!)
Вот чувствую и я скоро так говорить буду, а дети на чистом английском
Здорово!👍🏼
Спасибо!!! :)
Ю ар грейт мен! 👍
Your inglish speaking 😂😂😂
same in India as in Russia.
People are always pushing boundaries and breaking traditions in America. If someone breaks a norm it may be that they are from a different culture and every family has it's own culture or that they are just testing the boundaries. We tend to just let things slide if it is not a big deal. Those that don't are viewed as jerks. It is important to look beyond the external etiquette and give people the benefit of the doubt.
That’s because the US is full of self important jerks who think “bucking tradition” makes them cool and edgy. They are also so overcome with individualism that we don’t have much in the way of “American” culture anymore other than just being known for being loud and everything being excessive.
funny
Пиздец! У мужика английский!!! Ржунимагу)))))))))
I LOVE AMERICA SO MUCH MORE THAN RUSSIA! Thank you Jesus for saving me! I love you CRD i'm glad you're in America, but are you glad you're in America?
Акцент у вас такой, русский)
You make very useful content. If f**king teachers in Russian schools understood how to teach English, I probably would not have had so many mistakes in this sentence. If you are editing a video - it would be useful to use subtitles: Russian for Russian, English for Americans. Many thanks
thank you!
Zdrastvete ya shevu v India nu ya s Crimea , Simferopol ochen panravilsya vash kanal unas doma vapshe americansav ne na veedet 😂😂😂 ruski lyudi same lutsheye! 💪🇷🇺

American tea is плохо
:)
I think Russia 🇷🇺 has the best food. God bless.
😂😂
You have outdated info about how much russians prepare food nowadays, you quite often can see table. Our generation is more free and feel comfortable when guest is hungry, and you just sit in front of him and eat your sandwich :) muaahaha
fair enough - it has been awhile for me! I like the nuvo-Russian then!!!!
😂😂😂You need a disclaimer 😂 It is a joke people!!! 🙄
