South Africa has hands down the best food across Africa. Even many leading restaurants in Kenya are south African owned and run . And we love them 🇰🇪💕🇿🇦
Kenyans are Loved here in Southy 🇿🇦❤️🇰🇪
@@zncincigoniwe222 true Kenyans are truly our newly found friends I hope this gets stronger with time. We felt the same for Ghana but lately I feel there is some animosity brewing can't put my finger on it,,🤞I might be wrong.🇿🇦🇿🇦🇰🇪🇰🇪!!

Probably the greatest couple on youtube I've seen, very respectful, very intelligent, they're open minded and understanding, i can just feel the love being here 🤎🇿🇦
The most strange thing is, Alex is a walking distance from a wealthy suburb Sandton. 😢 The contrast still blows my mind.
I love how you guys view and celebrate South Africa🇿🇦 and Africa as a whole. Keep doing what youre doing.
Kota is pronounced “Quarter” because its a quarter of a loaf
We never use the word "Slums" in South Africa. At first I didn't even know what it meant, I had to look it up.
We use "Townships" instead.
We didn't know. It's the original title.. No disrespect intended.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT No offense taken 😅, just addressing the video and clarifying for anyone who might be interested in knowing.
it was my first time also to had slum i know the words township and ghetto
But in Cpt we definitely talk about the hood too, I've heard about slums bt never used it
Slum and townships are very different
30 years isn't enough time honestly 🤞 i agree with ya. But bit by bit we'll get there
Some townships are not as dangerous as they say, some people build mansions in townships not because they cant afford to stay in surburbs but because they are comfortable. You would swear some of the townships are surburbs .not all townships are shacks.luv from SA
Good afternoon The Demouchets, I have finally subscribed after watching your videos for some time. I love your personalities and content. I am a Patriotic South African who believes strongly in the emancipation of South Africa and Africa at large. Despite the challenges we face, AFRICA is the best! Lots of love from South Africa.
Much love! Welcome to the family!
Watching from cape Town south Africa as a Capetownian townshipper who stays in township all her life I still stay in township by my family house
Yeah we call them townships or "kasis", this slums term is very foreign to us and sounds very derogatory.
Love your commentary. You're both so down to earth...
😊 We're glad you enjoy it!
Soweto ( South Western Townships) also people were divided according to Ethnic groups...Like they basically wanted Tswanas in one section, Zulus in another section etc.. The old divide and rule concept....it did not work though, people found a way to get together...
Commonly, South Africans identify themselves by ethnic group, but so often people from Soweto identify merely as Sowetans, because there, it would not be considered strange for one grandparent to be Zulu, another Sotho, another Coloured and another Zimbabwean.

@@ianbeddowes5362 not so much Zimbabwean but I get you.

Schools were integrated in 1990 in South Africa. I was one of very few none white kids in my Primary School and I started school in '99. The older kids would use racist slurs. I, personally felt unable to complain to my Parents coz I was given the gift of a good education... I hope our kids get it better
As a South African I appreciate you said about the Healing Time... I've been painfully awaiting it since I was born in the 50s , I like to experience it before I leave this World, at least The Kotha is a true African and Indian collaboration and celebration of our Country...In Food we Unite.
I have Samoan and Rarotongan family and alot of our cultural food is asian incluenced.. back from when alot of Asian immigrants came to farm pearls on the islands and its just natural that cultures share ideas and ingredients.. ❤
Although there are many people still living in Shacks, the South African government is busy building FREE housing for people being moved from the shacks and for military veterans
So true. 30 years is not enough time to be over everything and re building and correcting everything will take longer than that.
We have done a lot.
That's why we don't compete with anyone.
We just want to be better than yesterday.
If you know our country you know we have gone very far.
In love with this page 😅😅😅😅, the excitement when I wake up to a new episode especially if it’s African.
There's still an awful amount of pain and suffering amongst our Indigenous population in Australia. It took roughly 200 years for things to really start getting better from Colonisation in 1788 on. Until the 70's they weren't even acknowledged as human by the government. The Australian Government has been doing a lot to help, but it's an ongoing thing including National Sorry Day. When Queen Elizabeth II died I became aware of the demands our Indigenous population had been putting on her. They wanted either an apology or at least an acknowledgement of the past atrocities committed by Britain and our government. Unfortunately She wouldn't do it, so I think that's continuing with King Charles III. I'm starting another comment.
That give me hope for our country, because we gain freedom in 1994 so we still have a long way to go
@@sizakelediya3872 yeah no the Atrocities from the Apartheid regime will take long to heal...there is still a lot of work to do...
Abuse on indigenous people across the world from Africa, America, Aborigines, South America is enormous and culprits don't want to account nor refurbish. This continue to breed dispaired family units, hostility among ethnics, imbalanced governance and conflicts among international communities. As colonies are set up differently subject to imperial obligations and friendship circulate within. This threatens and disparage world peace
The atrocious ammunition used is socio-economics apportionment stratified on race factor, then on services delivery, opportunities and social security system inter alia
Worst part is the fact that abuser doesn't see anything wrong by incapacitating others of not of their own, in fact they reckon that they execute their mandatory
Thank you for loving my country South Africa and with you respectful commemnts and content you have my support.
Theres also white squatercamps and townships in SA.most beautiful country and my heart belongs to South Africa. Best people ever. Xx
There is a lot food in south Africa.....and they know how to cook delicious food♥️♥️ and drink alcohol well well😄😄🍷
We don't call them slums either, we call them townships. That's a term we're just not familiar with. An average SAn, especially the older generation have never even heard of that word.
I just like how they're like a young couple that recently started out dating, the way they communicate and how respectful they are of each others opinions
❤️❤️ That is a beautiful compliment. Thank you!
Just saw your page today. I'm from South Africa , nice and smart couple.
Your reactions make us learn so much about our country and continent as well. And also this guy's content is dope...thanks for reacting to him,he's so unique.❤
Its actually 28 years compared to 300 years plus of segregation.
and an ongoing socio economic war and deprivation towards the natives
Love your videos 🤘🏼😁
Much love!
I love your content so much. Your take on exploring South African culture is a breath of fresh air. I also love your chemistry in the videos. If you ever do come to this great land, I would love to meet you.
Ur comments are soo reassuring....
I repeat, black people across the world have a similar palate especially the more older generations. Food types, spices etc
Was it Peter Tosh who sang no matter where you come from as long as you're a black man you're an African
really been enjoying the videos!
I love yal honesty on these reactions and truly appreciate how you always make your opinions and perceptions known. When learning about a different culture some people tend to feel intimidated which clouds their judgement..not forgetting how the culture they are reacting to may some times be overwhelming with their critique. Much respect to you guys.
Love Dem 🔥
❤️❤️ Thank you for seeing US, fam.
We don’t fake a facade around here. Much love!
Beautiful video fam
We don't have slums in SA. That's a term used by westerners. We have townships or squatter camps, those are our hoods. Please refrain from using the word slums to define any South African residential area. Danko means Thank you!!!

Thus a slum it's not a hood
@@injaye-game9014 You probably don't even comprehend what you just heard.
Do you even know what a slum is?
@@leomamofokeng5104 How do you define a slum and township?
I have fallen in love with your channel 💕 ❤ 🎉
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦I love you guys ...your very honest , I am enjoying watching you..
You guys just gained a new subscriber from southie 🥳. Loved it!
Much love! Welcome to the family!
I really enjoyed this video😍
Great video guys. I like it. Soweto is an abbreviation for South Western Townships. So all the townships in the south west of Johannesburg were renamed to collective name "Soweto" after 1994 when Nelson Mandela was president and the ANC came into power.
Nchoo you have a special place in our hearts too. I am glad you highlighted the time frame. Yes we have a lot of issues to deal with as a country but we have come a long way. We have government schools and health care facilities that are free to the public. Our health care is the best in Africa. We have Nsfas(National Student financial aid scheme) taking people who to higher education who wouldn't have afforded University. Yes we can cry about the negatives and we are not there yet but there are a lots of positives we can still pride ourselves with as a country. Not there but we are getting there.
The food in this video makes me go hungry instantly.
❤❤
You guys are doing well 😍😍
Enjoyed this ❤❤
Georgia sells white clay to it, they get it at gas stations it’s white in color!
I think a series of the similarities of south african and american struggles would be very successfull!
I wouldn't mind taking you to the spots. #cometosouthafrica🇿🇦❤
The painfull thing is Alex is right next to Sandton, the righest square mile in Africa.
Ohk Cece we don't use the word slums here we just call it informal settlements, also what you call Hood we call it townships. It's the guy tasting the food who kept on with the word slums
I agree the projects thing is very similar.
yeah the clay is an iron supplement. must not eat too much.
for women preggies and those on their periods
Even in Nigeria it's used for Same purpose
I see you ( from avatar). Love you guys youve dug yourselves a space in my heart.
I understand being born in poverty
but it's better being a country where there is still opportunity. whereby you can work hard and move yourself out of poverty.
With good infrastructure, and employment opportunities.
South Africa it's even difficult to find a job , infrastructure is falling apart and starting a business is extremely difficult with no money.
it's irritating because we got potential if government really focused on those three things.
Job opportunities ( Good investmenst)
Ease of creating Businesses ( funding schemes)
improving and maintaining infrastructure.
that's all we ask for so we can work our way out.
I really frustrates me
The one we elected he hasn't done anything, we need to choose a better president ANC is fucked up
Yes I'm frustrated by the current Government.
I love seeing People from abroad looking at our country and seeing it's beauty and potential.
South Africa is a beautiful country.
If only we could manage it well.
just get the basics correct that's all we ask.
Electricity
Infrastructure maintenance
safety.
that's all.
we are wonderful nation
But it's like that in most parts of the world unless you want to try Scandinavian countries...Lol...They "seem" to be doing well...U.K,U.S all kinda going through the same thing...
Please come to our beautiful beloved country and see our beauty. We have lots to offer we are so diverse and beautiful people.
Upens that's the stew name in xhosa language I love it
alexandra's sly is called dagwood in my township.
So you guys are from Louisiana? One of the best singer Joshua Ledet is from there...I heard that Louisiana people love craw fish
Yes. I met him before. & we do!😅
Slums is like Alexander typa place the hoods/townships here in south africa
Kota is like a million calories.. eat that and gym for 1 week.
Growing up in Zambia I get what you mean about people looking out for the kids.. coz I swear down if I misbehaved outside and one auntie saw that she'd smack me, take me home tell my mum and I'd get smacked at home too and the auntie isn't a relative just a someone in the neighbourhood... The new generations will never know that kind of love its a bit sad still ❤️ love you guys
There's a difference between the slums and the hood.... Slums is like the informal settlements within the hood.
The clay can be addictive...most pregnant women love it🙈
THE HOOD IS DIFFERENT HERE EXAMPLE IN THE CAPE ITS YOUR MITCHELLS PLAIN,MANENBERG,HANOVER PARK ETC
So it is Mabopane and Ga-Rankuwa a township like Alexander and Soweto because they don’t look the same.
❤
My hood🤙✨️
They always say is the most dangerous because is the townships but ppl who stays there they are used to it and trying by all means to be better
My hood❤️
U can also react to schools under siege In South Africa
My 50 year old father matriculation before segregation in schools ended I'm namibia
Matrixulated* whew chil', it's too early😂
It’s eaten by pregnant women yes for iron deficiency! I never ate it though! I preferred to try mopani worms 🐛 amacimbi because they are crunchy lol when fried.
That soil will literally render you iron deficient... the worst thing that can happen to you... I always tell people it's not safe to do that... but hey...
Coloured communities is definitely the hood
ure right! when i was pregnant, i ate that clay everyday 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹i hate it now
The Robots(Traffic lights) not working in the background perfectly potrays the current state of the county🤣🤣🤣😭😭💔
More than 8 hours of no power a day🚮
I would really love for you guys to watch a documentary on apartheid very detailed. it would nice to see your guys reaction to a newer racial injustice apart from slavery. xx
My favorite channel
Much love!
You are so humble 💕 love you channel from Durban 🇿🇦
❤❤ We appreciate you!
React to the favelas of Brazil.
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦👍🏿👍🏿
Southern Africa we didn’t really eat pork like that coz it’s a Christian part. I never grew up eating pork except maybe bacon 🥓. So we have never eaten pork intestines. But goat , beef , sheep ones.
I love Alex ❤❤❤❤ 😂😂😂😂
3:11 into this video, respect.
Much love!
Well at least when it came to roughly half of those dishes I didn't want to throw up. I can't handle hot spicy foods, unfortunately I can't handle Coleslaw. It hurts my mouth to eat it and then it gives me a heck of a sore stomach. I'd be looking at the person doing the cooking with my big almond shaped eyes and begging to know what's in those sauces first. I'd be asking them to please leave the Coleslaw off my dish with those hamburger patties for my mouth and stomach's sake. But I would be willing to try them, possibly splitting them with someone else. I probably wouldn't be hungry for the rest of the day though. Except to eat something light with a nice salad 🥗. I would also would want to wait for at least a couple of days between trying them.
Slums isn’t really the hood, its informal housing the hood is better than the slums.
You Missed the chicken feet braai in Alex
Funny story my first day working in Alexander I got robbed 😂😂😂
I would say the hood equivalent is our Townships not necessarily the slums
I would say the "hood" is more the coloured areas, as to the townships. Like people in the townships are good people who dont even have the opportunity to do anything. In the coloured community, youll see a situation more similar in culture to the hood, as the coloured community adopted a lot of hiphop influences into the culture, and maxe it coloured. Like, for example, no self-respecting coloured boy wears a pants that isnt 3 sizes too big. No coloured boy hates hiphop music and they only listen to rnb for the toxic kings like brent and breezy. The car pimping, gang affiliation and illegal substance dealings. That story about your granny, might apply to the township as well, but in the coloured community, its out of necessity. We look out for each others kids, because of the gang activities and the fact that it takes a community to battle it.
The girl looks like she could be south african.
Bro I thought I was the only one who saw it lol lol... looks like a girl from a SA hood
I eat it, in Angola 🇦🇴 and in DRC we have grey clay, I eat it and love it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.... pregnant women eat too much of it
Think he said kalabash chalk. Isnt kalabash a vegetable like a squash
Yes you are right a lot of pregnant women suck on the clay here
You guys should react to the gangs of cape Town.
Mhmm we'll have to pass on that one, fam.
@@TheDemouchetsREACTgood on you for skipping that ✊🏾
@@TheDemouchetsREACT sure bru, i respect that 👍
Next react to Kenya
30 years is not enough to make change but it's enough to make progress but we are not
Steamed bread, idombolo
28 years Vs 300 years plus
Pls react to white slums of South Africa
I just love their reaction 😂 🤭❤
It's good for pregnant women (clay)
Not that you're missing much in this one, but there's usually extra content after these videos appear to end. Bloopers and outtakes and shit. Might be worth it to stick around sometimes.
React to Dave Black, you will cry
