Brother. Are you the kind of person that puts chamoy on
00:03
everything? A lot of fruit veggies?
00:07
So it is bomb salsa chamoy.
00:10
It's the best. It's on fruit.
00:15
On yo. My potato chips,
00:18
dude on my hot Cheetos mother is like Turin and even on
00:24
drinks, it's sweet sour spicy.
00:33
Just everything. Just in one sister.
00:38
It's 10 in the morning.
00:40
I'm Mexican. What can you expect?
00:42
No. Yeah. And funny enough while Chamoy is a Mexican
00:45
tradition, do you know that?
00:46
It's has Chinese origins?
00:50
Oh OK. Tell me more.
00:52
Chamoy may have arrived to Mexico in the 16 hundreds with Chinese
00:56
immigrants. They brought a delicacy called Sea Moi which is a
01:00
salty dried apricot with a licorice flavor.
01:04
Chamoy does sound like you know,
01:06
it came from Chinese origins,
01:08
the word chamoy. Meanwhile today's chamoy is similar traditionally made from
01:14
like salted pickled fruit such as plums.
01:18
Well, Sea moin eventually turned into chamoy in Mexico and locals
01:23
added chile to it for some spice.
01:25
You know, we'd be adding chile to everything.
01:27
Everything, bro. We see something we're like,
01:34
you know, the Chinese coming in being like,
01:36
look, what do we have for y'all?
01:40
is there a spicy chile?
01:41
You know, it's the same thing like in other places we
01:46
fucking at our shit.
01:49
it's a fusion. Yeah.
01:51
Yeah. But it's actually a similar in Japan and it's called
01:54
ume Bosi, sorry if I mispronounced that and it's like
01:57
also kind of made from a similar plum like chamoy.
02:00
So again, the Chinese have their own kind of chamoy,
02:03
Mexicans and even Japanese,
02:06
Dang. Ok. That's awesome.
02:08
I didn't know that I'm learning.
02:10
Chamoy is worldwide or it's worldwide.
