Hey Joe Show: Does ‘kinamot’ style work in America?
YouTube's 'Hey Joe Show' shows what happens when you try to eat different kinds of food with your hands in the United States


MANILA, Philippines – Pwede ba magkinamot sa America? (Can you eat with your hands in America?) The Hey Joe Show boys are at it again!

Kinamot (in Bisaya) or kamayan (in Tagalog) is a style in which Filipinos eat with their hands. When there are no utensils around, all you do is wash your hands and eat! Around the Philippines, you can find many restaurants that offer only this style of eating by serving rice and a main dish on a banana leaf plate. 

But when you leave the Philippines, how well does it work? 

The stars of the show, Sumner, Connor, Jake, Tylan, and Davis, said they were “tired of washing dishes” and wanted to try eating food with their hands in the US. They experiment in this video by eating different kinds of foods with their hands including cereal, banana, ketchup, marshmallows and peanut butter. 

Watch this hilarious video and find out what happened:

Unsa-y nakaton-on namo?” (What did we learn?), the boys asked at the end of their video. “Bisa’g asa ta sa kalibutan, pwede ra gihapon magkinamot!” (Wherever we are in the world, we can still eat with our hands!) – Rappler.com
