today I'm the best ever food review show
we're eating duck blood soup in Vietnam
it's October and Halloween is upon us
and there's no better way to get the
kids in the mood for Halloween than by
serving up some soup with animal blood
in it Deacon Deacon Deacon big gun big
gun deep gun okay Brett was that really
right yeah said again today we're eating
duck blood soup also known as dick gun
which is not the right pronunciation but
that's how I say it because I don't know
how to put my mouth in that way so the
duck blood I'm gonna be eating today how
fresh is it they did just get it trying
in the early morning this duck was
drained of its blood this morning how is
it doing is it okay now okay and it
sounds like you made a full recovery
assembling the duck blood soup is a
multi-step process that starts by
pouring the fresh blood into a bowl and
allowing it to set kind of like jello or
a tasty scab I've been given to find
this all wallstreet blended spirit but
if you zoom in on that you'll notice
that this is actually this bottles been
repurposed a few hundred times what's
inside it here actually is homemade rice
wine this is usually two things that are
had together right like beer and
pretzels or like I don't know you think
of two other things
okay what about to do everything here so
I just poured a shot um my buddy over
here told me it was too much but it's
wine okay how I've never gotten drunk
off a shot of wine I think I'll be funny
it's not wide like you think it would be
wine it's different this strong wine
once the blood has thickened we add some
of the ducks organ meat fresh greens
peanuts and onions with a side of rice
cracker first of all we've got some
vegetables here that looks good I'm
gonna start with this good the blood is
become kind of solid here we go
blood soup to us it's a pleasant brunch
item but to a duck it's a nightmare in a
bowl I'm really pleasantly surprised
it's not blood tasting it's not irony a
lot of the flavor depends on how many
herbs you put in right now this is very
aromatic it's very urban and might I say
even aromatic one more time because I
can't think of a third word it's uh it's
one of those shocking foods because
there's blood in it and people aren't
used to eating blood but really it's not
that weird country is from all around
the world I have dishes that contain
blood including blood sausage or Betamax
in the Philippines it's like half spongy
half machine you know what not bad aside
from being tasty blood is packed with
iron protein and electrolytes
that's right Gatorade there's a new
drink in town duck blood mmm BAM
here's what I would recommend I'd say
definitely try it this is gonna be sweet
on Instagram you're gonna get mmm 90
hearts that's pretty good and you're
gonna get two new followers
is this a popular dish in Vietnam 2 out
of 10 people do it a young generation
now today they're quite scared of this
kind of thing is it true that you are a
young Vietnamese person suddenly I'm
look young right now and have you ever
tried dick gun no I haven't don't you
feel sad that this tradition of eating
the soup from the blood of a donkey that
tradition is kind of going away actually
in day I don't think is yeah but right
like to the younger generation I have
this plea
put down your snapchat glasses and your
bodies and pick up a bowl of deep gun
right now I'm more determined than ever
I'm wasting their time I'm not catching
fish it's time to get serious no God the
fish are always going to be by the most
creepy areas where the fish man oh yeah
buddy look at that
