If food takes were a red flag, I would DEFINITELY not be watching this channel
I mean they weren’t for Syndey otherwise Garnt wouldn’t be married right now
Slap some marmite on it
I like trash taste but I don't want to date trash taste
Accurate
My girlfriend has childhood traumas linked to certain foods. The taste of onion in particular causes her to automatically gag and feel nauseous for the rest of the meal.
This has caused her to be extremely cautious when trying new foods
Some people grow up, some people don't.
@@shlankbankWith trauma that's a bit different because you associate the taste with a bad memory, and thus it tastes bad by "default" now. Dunno if that's something you can necessarily grow out of because that's not as much preference as much as it is psychological weirdness.
Active in Trash taste subreddit = Red flag
I am a picky eater, but I *am* willing to try stuff. But not always. First I *do* need to know what it is I'm eating (in case there's something in it that is just an automatic no, like peanuts). And sometimes I'm not willing to try because I'm tired and trying new stuff *does* take energy, so sometimes I can't be arsed.
Ok, that’s all valid, but why do you NEED to know what’s in something? What does that get you other than another potential reason to decide you won’t like it before trying it?
If someone tells me beforehand that there’s a dish with ground up maggots in it, I’m gonna psych myself out and go “eh…I’d rather not” as opposed to someone telling me after I ate it.
And even if it’s like “omg, there was maggots in there! Why didn’t you tell me!” If I enjoyed the flavor up until I was told, then who cares? At that point, you’ve just discovered that there’s a dish that uses maggots that you enjoyed that flavor of. That’s COOL that you can say you tried and enjoyed something with that in it.
@@spiderdude2099 I assume you don't have any allergies... Sometimes knowing what's a dish made of can be literally a life or death information. Also some people are just very sensitive about food, for example people with autism. I'm not even autistic and i'd definitely vomit if you told me i ate maggots, even if they tasted delicious - that's just how some people's brains work.
@@CaptainDock44 I thought I included it in this comment, but I left several other ones on this comment section where I put “non-neurotypical texture or taste aversion” as an acceptable exception.
Regardless, unless you have a deep psychological or physiological reason not to, there really isn’t an excuse. My older brother has autism and will still try new foods. If he doesn’t like it, he doesn’t ever have to eat it again.
Yeah. And sometimes when you're pressured into eating something you feel like you're not gonna like and if you do ended up disliking it anyway, you end up wasting a lot- unless they're just picking a piece for you to try from their meal. It's just not fun forcing someone to, especially when you have allergies and you gotta check if their utensils or the food itself has anything that can upset your body.
I will try anything there is little I found I don't like, dark chocolate, black licorice... I don't mind them now but still not top picks. But seeing someone REFUSE food when they have never even tried is a HUGE pet peeve.
I remember growing up, family dinners were around the TV watching Food Network, Gordon Ramsey, and Anthony Bourdaine. As a 12-year old, I was always under the impression that trying new foods was the best thing.
I came to love stuff like Shrimp paste and fish sauce. Capers, olives, and anchovies much to my mothers chagrin. Ironically, I was and still am, to this day, the one who pushes my parents into eating new things. lol.
Its funny to me that Joey has been the thumbnail for both the red flag videos so far
With not being on social media, there's a difference between having been on it and left, than never having been on at all.
What's the difference to you?
There is no difference other than they were there at one point. It means nothing.
I like those shrimp flavored chips from Japan. My best friend bought them as a joke to do a Japanese snack taste test. She hated them, but I loved them, so she gave me the whole bag and I ate them all. 😂
I definitely need to know everything that's in something I'm eating. I'm picky, but that's because I know what I like and I know what I don't like. I'm willing to try new things, but it I need to know what it is and if it has any of the things I'm unwilling to eat in it.
Aside from allergies and religious reasons, why do you need to know the ingredients before eating?
@keifer7813the comment already answered your question
I've actually experience the food topic in a relationship. I'm not a picky eater at all and I also love to cook. So I'll try new things without a issue. My ex was an extremely picky eater for sensory & texture reasons. Her being a picky eater didn't bother me at all, but funny enough me being open to food was something she constantly was critical of. She would comment and judge me for the things I ate and thought it was "weird" I liked everything. Which isn't true, there's a bunch of foods I dislike, but I know I disliked them because I tried them first.
I'm guessing that's the reason you aren't together anymore?
I'd understand it if you were critical of what someone eats because of dietary reasons, but judging someone for being open to new things sounds kinda scummy to me.
My thing is, when I eat a meal, I want to actually enjoy the food. If I spend a large some of money on food, and it's something I've never had before, no idea if I'll like it, and I don't enjoy it, my meal is ruined. I'm probably still gonna eat it, unless it's making me sick, because I already paid for it, and I'm gonna get full off of food I hate, and the best part of my day, meal time, has just been ruined.
I definitely don't mind trying new foods. But when something isn't good, I feel like I've wasted my money, and I've thrown away having a good experience. When food is cheap and I can order a few things where I know I'm getting at least one thing I like, it's a much better experience even if I don't like much of anything else. But throwing away like $20 on a meal that isn't that great really really sucks.
5:15 As a Wisconsinite, there is a stereotype about us that does involve cheese. Though frankly, I see it as more of an issue with other areas that DON'T have a good cheese selection. My cousin moved to a different state, and was saddened by only having a tiny cheese section in the local grocery store. The normal, big grocery stores here have 2-3 sections dedicated to cheese. There's the deli (for cheeses sliced to order), the artisan cheese section (which has better quality, and often small producers cheeses), and the mass production section (which has the big brand stuff).
The only reason someone would think it's a red flag that your significant other is not on social media, is because you lose the capacity to go around their back and spy on them constantly with fake accounts and stuff.
Red flag. But just for me.
I like to try lots of different restaurants and cuisines and sometimes that involves sharing food or trying dishes we might not be familiar with. It would be incredibly difficult for me to date someone with lots of food restrictions
I'm just not a food guy. I don't find going out just to eat to be fun. Trying new foods is not a thrill I seek.
I used to be the same. The idea of going out just to eat seemed never appealed to me. But watching this channel has made me very curious about foods lol and now I wanna try a bunch of stuff. If that means going out just to try something for the first time, I might be down. Although i might just order online lmao
I know some people who only eat chicken nuggets. And no vegetables, because it "makes them feel like a bunny"
I thought my allergy to social media was bad, but then the boys made a joke about getting incinerated every time you get a peek of someone else's phone. XD
food takes are one thing but the social media thing is way more important
With food, it takes a lot of effort to convince my brain to try new things (this extends to other things as well, but this is the most annoying part). Sometimes i can't bring myself to try something new, and getting shit for it every time makes me not want to try something new even more.
Texture and smell are also a huge thing for me. Doesn't matter if something tastes good, if it smells bad or has a texture i don't like I can't eat it and will gag if I try, so I don't usually try. Not fun when my brain randomly decides one day that a texture is actually icky now.
All this to say, picky eaters have enough struggles without everyone judging them every time they eat in public
(On another note, I finally tried strawberries the other day and confirmed i do not like eating fresh strawberries 🥲)
Any popular meals that you won't eat?
Forcing others to try out new food would be a red flag for me lol
If you have no good reason other than “I don’t feel like it” to not want to even TRY a food, that’s a red flag. Be more open minded. A single bite…SOMETHING.
The only times it is excusable is allergies and something like a non-neurotypical person having specific and triggering texture and taste aversions. If there isn’t some deep psychological hindrance or medical reason not to, personally…..not acceptable.
My wife eats 7 things
Bread
Cheese
Eggs
Pasta
Fried meats
Canned curry veggies
Plain tomato salad
She thinks she's not a picky eater and that other things are simply not agreable to her taste or system..
When we cook we compromise by her taking her plain shit and I'll cook on further with sauces and other flavors that she outright boycots.. is ut annoying yes did i get over it sort off but also wtf still lingers in my head
I'd rather not poison myself
For the first question, I would say red flag. The only downside is finding out you don't like the food. Like if I am going to try something new from a friend, we would be both sharing what they wanted me to try so that there isn't any wasted food. Anyways, being able to share your significant other's family's food is always a good way to build a bond between with them too.
my problem with trying new food is that there is always a risk that you waste money, so you either have to force it down or if it is so disgusting that you have to throw it away.
also when eating in a restaurant or something then you have to wait again for the next order to come and then everyone is already done with their food.
trying new food just comes with a lot of risks if you cant tolerate some type of tastes.
I'm actually not a huge fan of food in general. I don't get any enjoyment out of eating, so I can basically eat whatever.
You see food more as fuel huh
@@keifer7813 Pretty much, I eat only for the sake of nutrition.
@@darius5066 Busy life? It be like that
@@keifer7813 I used to be super fat. Eventually, I got tired of it and sick of eating everything and being miserable. I lost the weight and when I did I stopped caring about food too. Now I just eat to maintain my health.
@@darius5066 Well done on the weight loss 👏
I myself am one to rarely try new foods. But that comes from not knowing the texture of it, which is a major thing for me. Like if something has onion in it, even to like a small diced up degree, unless I swallow it while I can’t eat it cause I hate the texture of onion. This applies to all fruits and vegetables, I don’t like their texture, so I order very basic food and stay within a wheelhouse of foods because I know I can eat it without gagging at the texture
Actually, supertasters, people with high concentrations of tastebuds, struggle more with extreme spicy foods and bitter foods. So, it is a bit of a genetic thing as some people have much lower concentrations of taste buds than others and can therefore handle spicy foods better.
In germany we say: "Was der Bauer nicht kennt, das isst er nicht"
I will try pretty much anything except spicy food. & I don't trust people when they say "it's not spicy".
I stopped trying after the 3rd time I was lied to.
Sure, it's not spicy when you've already burned away your taste buds.
But for those of us who are still able to taste subtle flavour, it is.
I'm not going to build a tolerance to something I don't enjoy anyway & think becomes a crutch for some cultures that ruin a lot of food with it.
Yeah and for some reason, we should build tolerance. But why? Why should I go out of my way to bring myself to enjoy something? We don't do that with music or fashion or anything else lol
"too much flavor" lol
wtf
As for partner being on social media. They talkin about sharing amd enjoying memes together. They can just show them meme via text or if they in the same room they can just show them the meme.
For me im a picky eater but also because its safe and i know im not wasting money on something i wont eat. I can try new food but gotta ask why take the risk of wasting money and food. I also just dont like sauce and like 99% of food i see had a variation of sauce on or in it.
Why does having a pallet of a 12 year old automatically mean your autistic, Im 22 and I still love eating chicken nuggets! 😢
Im not opposed to eating anything else like seafood, vegetables, and other things. But you can't go wrong with eating childhood classics like pop tarts, french toast sticks, and tater tots.
I think it’s more of the sense of people who only eat nuggets. I’ve known few people who have siblings like that. They refused to eat anything other than nuggets, tenders, or McDonald’s as a meal
4:04 At one place I worked at we had this 1 GUY that had a 12y/o taste. We would all get together to order lunch ($15 per person budget) and this guy would ALWAYS say. Hey can we just get burgers?? When you have a $15 budget You Can Eat Almost Any Where and at Any Restraunt!!!!! BUT NO!!! This guy just wants your standard McD's.
I think it depends on the reason for having certain food preferences.
If a person has a more limited diet and/or palette because they just refuse to try new things and are close minded about things they haven't even experienced for themselves, then yeah, I would agree that is cringe.
However, if a person has a more limited diet and/or palette due to other things like neurodivergent sensory issues with textures, food allergies, food sensitivities (like sensitivities to gluten or spice/capsaicin), or struggles with eating disorders (like ARFID), then I think they are more justified. At that point, dunking on them for having a more limited range of comfortable foods would just seem harsh and mean.
Im allergic to gluten. Not intolerant straight up allergic.
I dont try new foods very often ESPECIALLY at resturants because theres always the paranoia of what if they fucked up and the rest of my night/day is completely hell. Even when I do go out to eat somewhere ,I tend to eat lightly for that extra reason.
I mean I’m terminally on and consume UA-cam and get most of my news from UA-cam
I don’t know if that’s considered social media
It is
Connor dissing picky eaters bro. I cant. Man only eats vanilla ice cream and tiramisu for dessert and man is calling out picky eaters😂
Being off social media is the LEAST try hard thing you can do. That's the whole point, Joey. There's zero clout chasing. There's no posting of pictures to show off your last vacation or meal at some expensive restaurant. What the fuck do you mean? You can look at memes all over the internet without being on social media. It's the internet! You dont have to know or understand EVERY damn meme out there. Thats a YOU problem.
As silly as it sounds, i think my pickyness is a big reason im a bit hesitant to get into the dating scene again lol.
Ive gotten better than when i was younger for sure, like im not out here ONLY eating Chicken tenders and Pizza (though still love those lol) but idk, ive got like, a mental block that is hard to break on trying some foods.
And ive found its mostly texture based. Most foods that are goopy, slathered in some sauce or liquid, or IS mostly liquid, its hard to bring myself to try. So things covered in gravy, beans, pastas, soups, i gravitate away from lol
And i want to get better at it, i hate feeling like im holding myself back from being around new people from something silly like food, but it isnt easy and i really dont know why.
Not only food allergies but religion is also an exception. Muslims can't eat meat unless it's Halal, for example. Anything with pork is also a no-no.
Maybe it is just me, but I don't use social media to socialize? Just see funny video, don't comment on it at all...Is UA-cam Social Media? It is the only website I use...
I recall Connor wanting to eat Penguin meat. :p
That was ai generated
Man, eating with either connor or joey must have been the most stressful thing. Imagine you just wanna enjoy the meal that you know you consistently liked and then you just get peer-pressured.
Just let people eat whatever they like.
i mean its just trying food lol
@@MLGCOD07Can't say about other picky eaters but for me, that's betting on chance whether i will or will not vomit in public area. If i try something and i don't like it, my gag reflex will just kicks in. I'm not taking chance.
You make it sound like they're going to force you to eat something every time they go out to eat
Do you even get the question..They are talking about a partner not normal people .. Normal adult would definitely not like a partner who "always" wants to eat burgers and pizza when they go out..I mean sure you want it everyday ..Do it..But most people don't want a partner like that..
You would never appreciate any food culture if you have " palette of 12 year old"
Call it a red flag if you will but even as a 22 year old man, if I go out to a restaurant I’m ordering chicken tenders 90% of the time🗿
that's gonna be part of my order for sure lol you 🤝 me
It's the perfect tester sample food for 90% of restaurants, especially themed ones. If they fuck up *tenders* they probably fuck up other stuff, especially more expensive stuff.
@@Valanwaynot true lol. Almost all restaurants that will have chicken tenders, that doesn’t focus on chicken, use premade chicken tenders bought from their wholesale provider. They’re just frozen tendies that they fry and put on a plate.
It gives no indicator of how good a restaurant is at making their cuisines.
Let’s judge a restaurant how how well they make their mandatory kids meal😂
People say that "having the palette/diet of a 12-year old" is a bad thing, forgetting that things like supertasters, those with sensitive stomachs, and/or mental disabilities like Autism and ADHD exist.
Like, bruh. There's legit justifiable reasons for having a limited palette/diet and yet people overlook them just for the sake of clowning on others.
That's why it will never be a Red Flag for me - because there's legitimately justifiable reasons for it. Those who disagree, feel free to make it rain dislikes.
And that’s a red flag. Why would I want to date someone that has issues to deal with. It’s a solid opinionated take
@@yinyang2971EVERYONE has issues to deal with, it’s just if you can accept them or not.
I lost my taste buds once and every thing i ate tasted disgusting so pls try all the food you can maybe you will find a new favourite food
can agree, never would have thought nettle soup is great
100% agree. You. MUST. Try. It.
You can hate it, post about how traumatizing it was afterwards, whatever you need to. But you MUST try it. You’ll be better for it.
Only exceptions are allergies and non-neurotypical people having texture and taste aversions. But literally only those two exceptions.
Palette of a 12-year old=Red flag
Autistic people:😐
Not all autistic people are insufferable like they explained. You know they're not all socially retarded, right?
Well that obviously doesn't fall under the red flag lol it's the same for like having allergies, it's something you cannot help so I don't think that will apply to autistic people
The guys also aren't discussing every possible scenario or type of person under the sun sooo yeah
Unless you count group chats on discord, I don't really use social media either but that's cause I find it boring.
7:11 100% disagree with Joey here.
What I'm getting from this is that neither Connor nor Joey have spent much time taking care of children.
If this were a 5 year old's or even a 10 year old's palette, I might agree, but, unless the kid is just insanely spoiled, a 12 year old's palette should finally be open to trying most foods.
Spice has flavor
as an autistic person y'all takes about the food is triggering 😅
For me I'd rather eat the same things I normally eat then try something new and potentially end up wasting the whole meal if I don't like it.
With that logic, you Will never discover the wonders that trying stuff Will give you.
@@paulovinasrocha6166 I'll gladly try a bit of someone else's meal, that I know will end up being eaten and not wasted anyway, and if I like it, I'll order it for myself. But I'm not going to order something I've never tried before if I'm going to risk wasting food and money.
Don’t order a whole meal that is unknown to you. Literally NO PART of the hypothetical the boys were discussing stated you had to do that. But let someone else order it and try a bite. That’s what most people mean when they say “try it”. they’re offering some of what they ordered, not that they’re making you order an entire unfamiliar meal.
Joey: I hate people that think they understand Japanese culture by watching anime.
Also Joey: I love using social media to understand cultural references
u just cant take spice joey take the L
Joey stays based tho
Joey speaks facts. Could you imagine traveling with someone who could only eat McDonald's
Most of your guys red flag reasons are red flags for me lol😂 so judgy. I don't like most foods, i dont care to try it but if you judge me for it im cool on you 😂 I've ruined whole weeks "trying" stf
