- This is honestly probably the best episode ever.
- I anoint you the Dim Sum King. - I always wanna just play
with the food.
- Legend tells of a legendary warrior whose kung fu skills
were the stuff of legends! - Is he a panda?
- No way! Is it Kung Fu Panda? - Kung Fu Pandaaaa!
- I was him for Halloween one year just 'cause I was that obsessed.
- (PvF) We're dong a Try Not to Eat: Kung Fu Panda.
And you better believe we've got some secret ingredients
up our sleeves. - Man, this is gonna be a tough one
just considering food is such a big part of that story!
- There's such good food. - I wanna eat some dumplings.
- Dumpling. - Keith is an MMA fighter
out of Las Vegas. He's also a HUGE TikToker.
He posted something that just took my breath away.
- I didn't know this was a thing that was gonna make people interested.
This is on my bucket list of things to do is to get
on People vs. Food for at least one episode.
I watch every single episode of this.
Sharon is my favorite reactor. - I contacted React and I said,
"Is there anything?" And then, their magic
just went BOOM! And more privilege.
- I'm literally trying to stop myself from crying, like legit trying
to stop myself from crying. - You want me to hit you?
Punch you? Kra! - I'm literally trying to stop myself
from crying. - (Mantis) How is he doing that
with his face?! - We're starting with a good one.
(chuckles) - I love bean buns.
- I forgot Seth Rogen was in this. Oh my god.
Angelina Jolie was also in this! - It was a big cast.
- They could not have picked a better voice for the panda.
- I feel like I could put 40 in my mouth.
- Can you actually? Oh. Oh no, I love these.
Wait, hold on. (laughs) - (Jack) Yes.
- Now, a lot of people will let Nicole sit down first,
but I always figure, why? - I sat down!
(buzzer)
Sharon, you're a bad influence. - Mm-mm!
- Mm-mm. - (PvF) Think you could stuff
40 of these sweet red bean buns in your mouth just like Panda?
- These are red bean buns? Oh my god. That's so good.
- Oh. That's really good. - This part of it too is soft.
- I'll eat these all the time. (buzzer)
- No, it's really good. - Yeah?
- Yeah. - It's not super sweet,
but that red bean in the middle. - Mm-hmm!
- Red bean. Oh my-- I love red bean.
- Yeah? (buzzer)
- It's that nice sweetness, but it's not too much.
- Anything bread is honestly a party. - The aroma is so strong.
- Mm-hmm. - Oh, it's so good.
- Mm-hmm. - I didn't expect it to taste
like that, though. - It's sweet.
- I've actually never had these. These are good.
I would love to try and fit 40 in my mouth. (laughs)
- Yeah, it looks like a nice...butt.
- Nice butt? - Mm-hmm.
- It looks good. You just wanna...
- I'm a texture person. I don't really like soft things
or anything you could eat without teeth.
- Okay. - But the bread adds, like--
- Did you say anything you can eat without teeth?
- Mm-hmm. - I've lost so many lately. So many.
So many horror stories. - Pudding, jello,
anything custardy, soft. - What about mashed potatoes?
- Mm-mm. - Dude, it is so soft.
Just look at that texture. - What about soup?
- It has to have chunks in it like potatoes or bacon.
- It's like a cloud. - We need to move on!
- I eat everything with chopsticks. - I need two hands to hold it.
It's so heavy. - And I didn't know if you were
prepared for today's Try Not to Eat, so I got you a little something.
- The gift was just being next to you,
which you actually got me. Yeah! (laughs)
- And it's all washed... - Yeah!
- ...so that you could use it today. - No! How do-- okay.
- I mean, that works. - Thank you.
This is the best job ever, honestly. Really.
- This is fire.
- (both laugh) - That's me just trying to hide
the fact that I'm stuffing my face. Oh my gosh.
- This is such a great scene. - Food is the motivation for panda
and Sharon. - Bring it to the cookie jar.
- That's the cookies. - Oh, okay.
- Me at 3 AM eating in the dark. I'm like... (laughs)
- I know you don't like sweets, so let me try it
and tell you if it's super sweet. - Rate it on a scale of 1-10,
10 being the sweetest thing you ever had.
- (PvF) Maybe these delicious homemade almond cookies
can inspire your untapped kung fu moves just like Po!
- Three. Three or four. (buzzer)
- They feel so cool. (buzzer)
- Dude, these are so good. - Oh, they smell so good!
- If I touch it, do I lose? (buzzer)
I already lost anyway, so why not?
- Mmmm! - It's delicious.
- Oh, see? - That's delicious.
That's not sweet at all. - These cookies are underrated.
- Yeah, but these would not lead to kung fu moves.
This would just lead into me eating everything on the couch.
- (PvF) Where are your secret kung fu moves?
- I don't know! - You're like...
- I'm like, ah! - Hwa! (gasps) That was new!
- Mmm! (buzzer)
- Mmm. - Whoa.
- Mm-hmm. - Wait.
- It's so flaky. And it's kind of buttery
at the same time. - Okay, this is my favorite episode.
- See, I was right, huh? Short bread. That's right.
That's what I was thinking. - I always wanna just play
with the food.
- You must let go of the illusion of control.
- Uh-huh. Hilarious with you eating all those.
- Okay, I'ma really try this time. - (Li) These are your cousins,
Dim and Sum. - Oh, is this from the third one?
- Dim and Sum! - Dimsum!
- I want that necklace. - (sighs)
- Look at that, a snacklace. - Ooh.
- Oh my god, it is a snacklace. - Oh!
- This is exactly what I was just talking about!
- (PvF) We all know the dragon warrior loves dumplings.
But even more so when it's in snacklace form.
- We have to put it on.
Oh! - I don you the Dim Sum Queen.
- I am the kung fu panda. - I anoint you the Dim Sum King.
- Yeah. - You remember the candy necklace?
This one's way better. - it makes me feel so secure.
(buzzer)
- Already? - Already.
- Is it good? - Mm-hmm.
- Should I try it? (buzzer)
- How is it? - [Censored] me up!
- Dude. (buzzer)
- If you ever need a snack, just put your food as a necklace.
Then you can just eat whenever you want.
We should go for it right now.
(buzzer) - (Jaime) Ooh!
(buzzer) - And on a necklace,
it's so convenient.
- No, that's insane! - This is really good.
Bah, bah, bah! (laughs) - Oh my god.
It's like a sweet pork. - It was worth it.
- How good are our chefs? - Dude, the pork...
- And I can smell that, and it's very good.
And I'm gonna be very angry. Take it away from me!
- This is all I wanted for Christmas. Merry Christmas, everybody.
- It's all over my hair. (laughs) - This prize food better
be worth it, Nicole. This is so upse--
I don't think I've seen this much food come out
for the regular rounds. - We've got a cleanup
on aisle Kung Fu Panda. - I started doing food reviews
on TikTok specifically because I knew I was coming here.
- Oh, really?! - And the pork is so rich.
It just melts in your mouth. The sauce is really good.
I live for the sauce. This is the one I always get.
I know they have different kinds, but the pork one?
- (PvF) Mm-hmm. - Just drink the whole thing.
- Yeah. - (chuckles)
- Hot and sour soup, tom yum-- but that's-- it's tom yum?!
- Oh, jeez! - Oh my god! Are you gonna bring
the whole experience here? I can't. I can't.
- Oh my god. - Oh, there's a candle!
- Ooh, it looks so good! I love soup.
- (PvF) From the Kung Fu Panda holiday special, we've got
one of the many food offerings, a fiery tom yum soup
that does include a secret ingredient. - Dude, nothing beats
a nice tom yum soup. - Oh, wait, there's shrimp!
(buzzer) (whispers) Oh my gosh.
- Mmm. - I'm allergic to shellfish.
- (PvF) You are? - Yeah. (laughs)
- (PvF) Oh, you should not eat this. - Yeah, I won't.
- I'm not. I'll eat it for you. - Yeah, I'm not a soup person.
I could pass on that. - I do really wanna try this.
This one looks so good. I've never had this one before.
- Oh yeah! And it's spicy. - I love tom yum goong.
- Yeah? - Soup.
- Look! Discipline. - That's good.
- I'ma act like I actually like soup... - Wait a minute.
- ...and I really want to try it. - Wait a minute. Whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.
- This is honestly probably the best episode ever.
- You're allergic to what's in here. That is not discipline!
That's just being safe. - We could act like I can't eat it
and I really want to, but I'm not going to.
- I love how you're like, "Don't even use the bowl.
Just eat out of this." - Ooh.
- The quality of everything on this show is always great.
But this episode is crazy. - (PvF) Have you ever had
a tom yum soup? - I've never.
- Lemongrass with a kick. It's, like, sour and spicy. Mmm!
- A marching band's going across. And they're like (imitates trumpet).
- Is it really that spicy? - For me, it is.
- Go for it. Go for it. (gasps)
- Mmm. - (Jack) That's the right way
to eat soup. - Yeah, I'm not a soup person.
I could pass on it. - You know why?
- That's easy. - Because you can eat it without teeth.
- Exactly. - (laughs)
- (voice-over) Shifu found him...
- You're feeding us baby panther? - Look at the wittle baby!
- Aww. - Are we getting porridge?
- (gasps) Ooh. - Ooh.
- It's okay. - Ow!
- You've never had porridge?! - I've never had porridge!
- You've never had anything! - No, I know!
- Oh, is this porridge? - Oh, porridge!
- (PvF) Tai Lung loves this warm and comforting porridge
made by Master.Shifu, and so will you.
- It's kind of scaring me, not gonna lie! (laughs)
- I understand completely, but... - It's giving the Coraline punishment.
- Like a rice pudding. - Oh, no. I could pass on that texture.
- I really do. - Oh yeah.
- I'm just gonna eat it, right? - I was gonna say, at this point,
what do you have to lose? - I wasn't anticipating that.
Wow! What is that? Garlic? - It's just comforting.
- It is. - This is my comfort food.
- But see, I like trying new things. - Same. Same, same, same, same.
- Oh, really? - Same.
- But that's not new. I know I'm not gonna like that.
- You've had that before? - I've had that-- no. (laughs)
- I always eat porridge when I'm sick.
- Really? - It's like my soup.
- Zero crunch. That's gonna be a pass for me.
(laughs) - (PvF) It is not crunchy.
- It's not crunchy at all. - No, there's no crun--
it's like crunchy oatmeal. - I need crunch.
- You just had like a six-course meal.
- I'm happy. - Yeah.
- My brother used to take pudding cups,
like full vanilla pudding cups, and just squeeze 'em in his mouth.
And it used to make me wanna throw up.
Just the sight of it. - So, maybe it's that.
- Maybe. It might be PTSD. - Pudding PTSD?
- Every time it gets in my mouth, I can't do it.
It literally gives me shivers. I get goosebumps.
- Would that be PPTSD? Pudding...
- Pudding post trauma? - (both laugh)
- (PvF) Well, that is it. That is our challenge.
You guys have very much failed. - Gladly.
- (PVF) Congratulations, Daniel!
- Nice! - (PvF) You were able to avoid
these delicious dishes. And for that,
we've got a holiday feast. - A holiday feast?
- Oh no! - I'm not mad. You are. It's okay.
- Oh, I'm so excited for this. - Is that the secret ingredient
noodle soup? - So good.
- (Po) Needs... - (both) Garlic!
- Garlic! - Of course it does.
- Oh yeah. I love garlic! - I'm a garlic fiend. Oh my god.
I'm a garlic fiend. - Ugh. My gosh.
I wish I would make food this way. It'd be so fun.
- Oh. How beautiful. - Oh, so beautiful!
- Throw it in the air, and just let it...
rest on there. - I can smell those spices right now.
- (gasps) - I'm so excited.
Oh, look at-- this is a feast.
- Oh my god! Look at that little...
- Look at the little panda! - ...little panda!
- Yeah. - (PvF) For our winners,
we have a trio of Mr. Ping's Secret Ingredient Noodle Soups,
which are special because you're special.
- Watch us cry in two seconds. - Right now?
- (PvF) You don't want to dig into your prize?
- I do, but I wanna enjoy it while she's also
enjoying her punishment food. - Those are fighting words.
- (laughs) - This is what I wanna--
no, don't take it away! - (PvF) Unfortunately,
Sharon, Keith, Jack, Jaime, and Izzy...
- Wow! - You know what?
10 out of 10 experience. - (Mr. Ping) Went out to the back,
where my vegetables... - No, whatever it is, absolutely not.
- Oh, no. - I like vegetables.
- Yeah, but I bet they're rotten or something.
- Am I gonna eat a panda?! - (both laugh)
- Are we eating Po? (laughs) - It's a be-- (laughs)
- Oh my god, what a baby! Is it radish?
- (gasps) - Oh.
- First of all, why the heck is there dirt on there?
- And it's dirty! - (PvF) One of baby Po's favorites,
a fresh from the garden and perhaps still a little dirty
raw turnip. - Nicole, how am I supposed
to bite into this?! - Okay.
- I don't hate it at all. I hate that you make me eat dirt.
- I'm sorry. I'm gonna clean that off.
- (PvF) Nope. - (gasps) The dis-- ugh!
The dis-- ughhhh! - Ew! I hate this so much.
- You don't hate that? - Mm-mm.
- This is not it. How are you okay with this?
- It's just crunchy. - (gags) I'm gonna throw up.
- I don't hate it. - I don't like that at all.
- You gotta take good apple bites out of that.
- Oh! - I mean, you really need teeth
to eat this. - I will say this panda bread thing
is great. I'm loving this one.
- You are crazy. - Catch up.
- It's the bites for me. It's like ASMR.
- It has such an earthy-- - Do you think it's 'cause
it's covered in dirt... - It's so bitter.
- ...that it might be earthy?
- Oh, that's-- - (chuckles) Gonna break my jaw!
- I've already done this before. - It's like a spicy apple.
- She did get a lot to take home. But you know what?
I got the dish with love in it. - You did. You got Mr.--
You got Daddy's, uh... - Oh, god. Don't say that.
- ...hot soup. - Okay.
- Oh my god. It's almost like eating perfume.
I'm gonna scream. - (PvF) Well, that does it for to--
- Ugh! I regret that. I regret every bit of that.
- ♪ (hums) ♪
- Look at him slurp that secret ingredient
that Zaddy made. - You can leave now.
Door's that way. - I'm gonna throw up. Oh my god.
