When the New Year is coming, I want to go to China. Oh! You can trust me. This is good. You said a salamu nishma. You somehow you can see many many the synagogue. It's tradition. Jewish culture. Maintain their culture and heritage. Last time we did a Jewish food crawl with Liam in the lower east side, we were able to check out a lot of stuff that tourists might visit. This time we're taking it to the next level to check out other Jewish spots you might not have been exposed to. Whether they're orthodox, ascetic, hipster, and we even hit up a Chinese kosher restaurant where the owner speaks Hebrew. Our first location on this traditional Jewish food crawl part two, we are in Brooklyn, outside of Gottlieb's, and we are in the middle of the biggest Hasidic Jewish community in New York City. Yo, Liam, tell us more. One of the most densely populated Hasidic communities, you know, probably anywhere you'll find, closely here, around here, you know the Hasidics are probably the most strict Jews within all of Jewish culture, and they're varied to themselves, but this was a good reason.  Right, right, right. Came here to check it out, check out Gottlieb's. Hey, I'm trying to try some of this food, man, because, you know, this is not a community that, you know, we come to often, so I'm really excited, Gottlieb's. I think it is important to note that he is eating orange chicken. As you guys are going to see throughout this video, Chinese food is very, very popular amongst the Jewish community, even here at an Orthodox spot. They still have food that looks like chow mein, okay, the fried noodles. They have egg rolls, and they have their kosher orange chicken here. So, really interesting stuff. All right, Liam, we are in Williamsburg right now. We're at Gottlieb's restaurant, right across the bridge. What are we looking at? All right, we're looking at some Hungarian, some American, and actually some Chinese food, if you want to be surprised. What's the story behind Gottlieb's restaurant? Gottlieb's has been here for almost 60 years. It was opened by Hungarian, actually, Holocaust survivors that serve food in concentration camps. Yo, so when it comes to Jewish food, I'm seeing a lot of dishes that I didn't initially expect, right? I'm seeing like grilled chicken with peppers and onions. You got some form of orange chicken. You got a beef stew. Coming into New York City, you have a lot of diversity in the food, and as long as it's kosher, it's cool. All right. Let's get into it. Grilled chicken. That was immediately the thing that caught my eye. Grilled chicken. Mmm, homemade tasting. So that's kind of how you'd expect a pepper and onion grilled chicken to taste. It's hard to identify exactly, like, what those spices are based off of, but it does taste like something you would get at the mall or some to-go spot. This is warm. It can be sort of cold and warm. You can see the cold right here. You know, it can be, you know, sweet or it can be savory. These are these potatoes, right? Yeah, potatoes. Yo, I never had this before. This is really good. It's made out of pasta. If you can imagine a sweet onion pasta, this is kind of what it tastes like. I've never had it in this form, though. Tell me what's your personal story about this one, because you were saying we have to get the apple crew. Yeah, 100%.  And, you know, it's just something that's eating at all types of Jewish holidays.  Oh, no, that's good. It's almost like a bread pudding, but less decadent, but in a good way.  It's not as sweet, but I'm actually enjoying this a lot, man. I could see why you said we had to get the apple crew one. Liam, what do we have? Those are just a beef stew. It's like, you know, Eastern Europe, Ukraine, Poland.  This is like your quintessential beef and potato stew. Hitchu, where you need is beefy. Beef is falling apart. It's juicy. It's like a soul food, almost. You know, it's definitely something you'd see eating, you know, 56 years ago. Oh, man. I would like it a lot. All right, so moving on to our last two dishes here. We got Chinese dishes, and this is one of the themes of this video, as you're gonna see, is the relationship between the Jewish community and the Chinese community. So what do we got? Maybe it seems like an egg roll right here, and just some sesame chicken. You know, definitely Chinese specialty, but you see it as a acidic Jewish spot, and it really highlights the relationship, you know, between Jews and Chinese people. For Chinese and Jews to kind of have this like, you know, a pretty chill relationship with each other, it's pretty interesting. Yeah, it originates from this Lower East Side community and just living in such close proximity. All right, man, go for it. Let's try the Chinese food here at Gotlips, bro. This is Chinese food at a Jewish deli. I'm going in on the sesame chicken, man. Sesame chicken. All right, this is the veggie egg roll. I won't go. I would say this is actually one of the better ones I've had of this version, one of the best ones. All right, you guys, we had to get the gefilte fish. It's a combination of just a specific fish, and you know, it's not crazy in the way it is. Oh, so it's a fish patty? Yeah, almost it. I mean, it's a Jewish staple. It's, you know, it's exclusive to Askenazi Jews. So let's have the gefilte fish with the beets, the cucumbers, and the pickles. Let's do it. Gefilte fish. Ooh. Back up. Old sweet shrimp patty. Very interesting. I'm going to get the cucumber, the beets, the gefilte fish, and the pickle on one bite. Mmm. Balancing everything else. Yeah. I think Gotlips is clearly always adapting and updating their food and recipes, and I think that's really cool. Yo, let's try this. What are we looking at, man? Yeah, we've got a pastami knish. You know, we've had, we've had knishes before. We've got a pastami sandwich, but it's really interesting to see the two come together. But this is fried, too, which is different. Pastami knish. It tastes like a pastami potato croquette. I was feeling these beets heavy. Wow. I like the cucumbers, man. I don't like the cucumbers. Yeah. I don't know what it tastes like. Taking the pastami knish, I'm going to dip it into this beef stew. Oh, no. Oh, no. Well, adds a little sauce to it. All right, you guys, we're nearing our end of the meal here at Gotlips restaurant. Originally, I was going to say my favorite was the grilled chicken with the onions and the peppers, but actually I'm going to have to just pull a little audible. I'm going to say the gefilte fish, but you've got to get it with these beets that are almost like some wasabi beets with some dill and the cucumbers. It actually kind of reminds me of pretty much like Asian food. Liam, what was your favorite? The thing that I have the most memories with and I connect with them all, something my grandma used to make is the apple prugle. And it's, again, it's something that you look at and you're like, I don't know about that, but once you get into it, it's delicious. Yeah, it was good. It was healthier bread pudding. My favorite was the thing I never had had before. It looked completely new to me. It was the warm onion prugle. All right, this is like brown sauteed caramelized onions with these square pasta pieces. Like, I'm not going to lie. It was good. All right, you guys, that was really dope, man. This is just our first spot in the Hasidic community because we are headed to a kosher supermarket. I'm just saying, it's just around the corner. You know, that's something that I think everyone in the community is going to is kosher, but it maintains what the lifestyle is needed and it's cheap. So, we'll see you there. I always feel like like Chinese people and Jewish people even like hundreds of years back, they had like a pretty decent relationship.  Even when America wasn't even taking them in, you know? Right, right, right. There's a story about that, Andrew, and that is actually why John Stewart, the comedian, his grandfather was born in China. Chinese is such a humongous group that kind of went across the world in a huge diaspora, and for different reasons, so did Jewish people. I mean, that's why there's Jewish people from so many different countries. A lot of the branding in here isn't what you'd see in a normal grocery store. It's got a couple of brands here, you know, these are certified kosher, and they'll have to be slaughtered or something like that. All right, you guys, we're in the Jewish deli right now. Of course, all kosher if you're gonna give them the smoke brisket. Yeah, can I get a little bit of all that? The beans, the potato cake, and the meat and potato cake. Is that kugel? Yeah, they call it kugel. Yeah, can I get one of the kugels too? Yeah.  All right, young Liam, broski, I got something for you, bro. From a different recipe, a hot kugel. Wow. A hot kugel. Yeah. So those are the little pastas that are stacked on top of each other. And you guys are sweet. Go for it, go for it, bro. Yeah, see, I didn't know. I just copped it from the meat market, the kosher meat market. I was excited to try this too. It's steaming. Look at that.  Wow, it's very jiggly. This is more like, what my grandma would make. It looks a little bit more traditional. Yo, that's not bad. That's pretty good. I like this. This is a potato. This looks like it's almost like a smoked potato mash. Have you had this before? No, never. It's really good. It has that smokiness to it. Yeah, don't worry. Let me try that. It just did. Oh, but check this out, guys. I secured the kosher smoked brisket as well as stewed brisket. Kosher brisket. Man, it's falling apart. This is good. I can tell. Mmm, bro. Yo, listen. Whoa. Sometimes with kosher food, because you have to follow such strict kind of guidelines on how you prepare it, sometimes I feel like they put more care into the cooking too, because this is hella good. Some of the best brisket I have. Yo, how do some of the best smoked brisket ever? That is a bang of five out of five. Wow. That's crazy. Shout out to Sat Mar Meats. Sat Mar Meats. Wow, we're saving this. Dan, behind the camera, you're definitely trying that. All right, so this is the potato thing that we had, but with meat, I think with brisket chopped into it. And then over here, we've got a, why don't you try that? That is baked beans and brisket. Wow. Kosher barbecue. Old school vibe. All right. Old school vibe. That potato and beef one, it actually tastes kind of good, but it feels weird because it's all mashed up. Yo, can I get the classic craze from Jewish food crawl number one? Ah, tradition. It's tradition. It's tradition. Tradition. Yo, the smoked brisket was crazy. I gotta do it. Listen, straight up, Sat Mar Meats kosher meat market in Williamsburg. Best brisket I ever had in my life. This is a platinum triple chocolate, real kosher. All right, you guys, I've selected my item. All right. I'm gonna get the kosher high chews with these burritos. They got kosher high chews? All right, not really high chews. Kosher snacks. There is an expense that comes with staying and maintaining a kosher lifestyle. Yo, I gotta say, kosher products are not cheap, but you can taste the quality. The quality is there. Absolutely. Higher than non-kocher. When we're talking about soda or candy, why there is even a kosher version?  Right. This is good. I like this. Liebermans, I'm messing with this chocolate rice cake. I prefer the kosher treats to straight up American treats. I would prefer the kosher ones. Wow. Right now in this community, do you see any parallels with Chinatown in the sense that maybe people seem a little bit more within themselves? Whereas they're less outwardly emotional, right? 100%. You know, it's very to the community, to themselves.  And that's a lot like Chinatown, that they go to their places because they know their places and they know what they're getting and they know the people around them. You have to be very accepting to who they are and they will be accepting to you. You know, this community gets a lot of, you know, a lot of flag for being not the most exposed and not the most, you know, well-coming. But once you get to know them, once you have a better personality with the community and better, understanding the community, they'll fit in just fine, no matter who you are. I could see that making a lot of sense why come into this community and try to tell them how to be because we're here and they're not trying to tell us how to be. Exactly. How come for this is the first time that I've ever seen or heard about kosher burgers and kosher steaks?  And it's cut, this is the whole idea of not having the animal and its product. Like you can't have chicken and egg, you can't have good cow with the milk and the cow with the cheese. It's crazy to see a burger like that, especially with lamb, bacon, baked cheese and a burger.  If you're a Jewish person and you're just going to break kosher law for that meal, you're just going to go to whatever burgers find anyways instead of trying to find this compromise that's like a kosher burger. And like, this is a classic in America and just having that experience is great. Gottlieb's and the people in Brooklyn that we were just around, how are they different? Like those are two different cuisine. They will be surprised. They're not really, you know, accustomed to some of the stuff that is made here. Ashkenazi or people from Eastern Europe hold to their culture a little bit more and they try to, you know, not change things because it's worked for so long and it's been such a classic in their heritage just, you know, to buy kosher law. What if we brought this food over to Brooklyn, man? What do you think they would say? I mean, they might be skeptical but if it's by kosher law, I mean, I'm sure they'll go for it. Now it falls within kosher law, man. Looks delicious. Fried onions, you have your slaw.  Kosher smoker burger. Talk about flavor. A lot of flavor in this baby right here. It's crazy how it's a burger spot in Manhattan and it's kosher and Jewish people can eat here but it tastes like Texas. It's crazy to think like something kosher is something that Jewish law is tasting like something from Texas. Tell us, what made this steak kosher? How? Has to be dead when you slaughter it. Kosher ribeye. Right. Liam, have you ever had a kosher steak before in your life? Never. It's not something I've ever think of. It comes to my head. So it's not even something that people have tried before that you know of. You can go to the store and get it but that's crazy because you're walking to an establishment to take out some steak. Maybe everybody did not think about selling them. For now on, if it ain't a kosher steak, I don't want it. Bring it back. That's all I'm gonna say. Alright, so to wrap it up here at Mocha Burger what are some thoughts that come to mind, Liam? Looking at this food is like a new era to being kosher. Like it is not something you'd see like 20 years ago and it's crazy to have this and be able to consume it with kosher. It's like a new style and it's really, really good for a person who was never exposed to it. The market is here. You can have like a kosher version of a lot of things. We're gonna check all of them out. Liam, on the menu you gotta tell us which dishes you think would be the most popular.  It caters to four different groups. Buddhist, Jewish people, even Orthodox, Muslims and it even caters to vegans. Hey, these are all people who feel very passionately about their diets. Okay, we're gonna get the vegan soup dumplings. It's very good. It's very good. It's very good. It's really good. It's really good. It's really good. He showed it. He said, Hey, he just gave a peek. Low-peak. He said, hey, we got more on the back. Wait guys, you didn't actually win with the Italians either. That's a good point. Alright, we're talking about a vegan Chinese spot. I do not know if they have any Italian. I might be the only one. Alright, Liam, you do have something to tell all the Mandarin speakers out there. In the New Year, there were some young people eating Chinese food. On Christmas, people like to eat Chinese food. Alright. Well, that's why we're, you know, it's not Christmas, but we're eating Chinese food. Marco, did you know that? I did not know that. Yeah, did not know that. Jews live in tenements in this neighborhood right next to Chinatown. And on Christmas, Jews are like, where are we gonna go? Like, where are we, there's nowhere open. Back in the day, everything closed on Christmas except Chinatown. Right, so it's an American collaboration. Even in Seattle, I knew that Jewish people went to go eat Chinese food on Christmas. But I didn't know most Jewish people in America that are like fifth gen like you can trace their roots back to New York, right? 100%. New York was the place for Jewish people and has the most Jewish people in America, so I wouldn't be surprised. I don't know. This is a vegan Shalom Bao, guys, a vegan soup dumpling. This is the pork jellyfish fat, obviously. It does have some of the vibe though. And this is kosher. Everything here is not only vegan, but it's kosher. Was that like soy sauce in there? It was good. That was vinegar. What you got to go in, go in on the general, the vegan general soul was this kosher. Marco got you beat on the chopsticks there with the chopsticks. Good. It ain't bad. It ain't bad. She said when the Orthodox Jews come, that's the number one dish they give. They clearly focus on that item. Oh my goodness, yo. Yo, grab one.  Vegan Shalom. Oh. Oh wow. That's good. Whoa. That bao is so fresh, super fluffy. Oh. The bread is actually better than a lot of spots. The bread is one of the best char siu bao breads I've actually had in New York Shattetown. It was like crispy cream. It was great. That's good. Marco, I wanted you to be the judge. I know you are a roast meat guy. Kosher char siu. Yo. Oh man. That's pretty good. This is real solid guys. It has the same taste. The texture is a little off obviously, but it's really, really good though. Oh my God. I'm hopping on the vegan train wagon. I'm hopping on it. It's like a train wagon. Yeah. It's not even a thing it's made of. It's a train wagon. Yo let me try these spring rolls man. Yo dip it in the sauce. Let's go. You know I felt like Jewish parents and Chinese parents are kind of similar in the way like they don't care if their kids are like kind of nerdy or more like I guess introverted as long as they're like doing good in school. You know all about like what's coming next. I think it's both groups do not focus on partying in the conventional way. They want success for their kids. They want the best tickets. They want similarities but one's the biggest group on earth and one's like the smallest group on earth. Let's try these shrimp rolls guys. So I've never had vegan shrimp. Yo it's pretty fire. I don't know if it tastes like shrimp and it doesn't look like shrimp but it tastes good. Mmm. I'm a fan of this man. So it looks more like chicken but it tastes just like shrimp. I'm going with this. The vegan Buddhist kosher halal shrimp. I don't see the yamaka. It's the new yamaka. There's different levels. There's different levels. Okay. So. What's your password? I always get out. Celebrate with my family of his own. A little unconventional but it's just one. Did you learn to speak any Yiddish or Hebrew since you have so many customers? We have rabbi. We have rabbi. We have masgeek. Masgeek is the person who check the food. This is the kosher certificate. Did you say something in Hebrew to him when you walked up to the table? He said, Assalamu alaikum. The answer is burkhosham. That's a thank God. Yo, he's changed some Mandarin though. This dude speaks Chinese. I don't need to say Yiddish. That's great. I'm from Beijing. You don't have to say it. Can you tell us the history? Because during World War II there was a lot of Yotai and then moved to China, right? A thousand years ago. A thousand years ago. Henan province still have the synagogue there. Chinese government accept that the refugees which are from America. America has done some reviews. They want to China, Shanghai. Shanghai. Shanghai you can see many, many the synagogue. Still there. Still there. Still there. Okay. What's like your favorite dish that you had here? I have to say I like that one, honestly. The egg roll is so good. That was crazy. I'm actually going with the shrimp. I gotta have another one right now. Wow. This was good. A little chili oil. A little shrimp. Get it in. Crazy. Marco, what was your favorite? Definitely the roast pork. I mean, there wasn't much of a difference from the roast pork that I get in, you know, or street that's not kosher and not vegetarian. This was amazing. I got to go with the chashu bao. That bread was so fluffy. I would eat that bread alone. Hey, shout out to the owner for shedding some light. The very long relationship between Jewish people and Chinese people, especially in China. We're venturing out there. We're going deep. On this Jewish food crawl through New York part two, B&H Dairy. It's been almost open for 100 years and it's located in the East Village. 1938. This place has been serving Ashkenazi Jewish Eastern European food. It is kosher. It's in the Yiddish Broadway. It used to be called the Yiddish Broadway. There's tenements all over it with Jewish guys growing up. You know? When you said that it serves more of like the Ashkenazi, like Jewish American type food, it makes sense because East Village traditionally has a lot of like Europeans and Eastern Europeans. Are we in the Ukrainian Village? Yes, though. Yeah, we are in the Ukrainian Village. All right. I think you have ancestors from Ukraine? Oh, Poland. Okay. We're getting into some history here. B&H Dairy. You have it? Okay. What else need? The boots. Oh, cheese. Yeah, the cheese one is more traditional, right? Okay, get the cheese one. Two sour crowd and two potato. Okay. Right? Which one's better? Fried. Let's do fried. The fried fish pierogies are amazing. Yeah, pierogies are amazing. Lots of balls, too. Lots of balls. Let's get one lots of balls. Here's Jewish background cake. All right. You heard it from the store. You can trust me. This is bad. Richard? Yes. Are you Jewish? You're from New York City? Yes. How long have you been eating here for? About 76, 1975, 1976. It's inexpensive. It's good food. Do you think the younger generation should come here more? I think they do come here. All right, you guys. The spread is arriving here at B&H Dairy. And I got to say, we are joined by Italian Marco. Yo, what's going on everybody? Yo, I just want to say one thing. We're making history today. We got a Chinese guy, a Jewish guy, Italian guy. This is what the community should have looked like. Liam, what are we looking at? We've got an amazing spread. We've got some blitz. We've got pierogi. We've got matzobo, borscht, tuna melt, and latkes. Yo! This looks like the elevated version. This, there's a lot going on in that district. As an Italian, you're not very familiar with kosher food, right? No, I'm not. To be honest, the only thing that I know on this table is pierogi, matzobo, and the holla bread. Liam, you were saying earlier this is Jewish food, but it's not, you could just call it Eastern European food as well. Yeah, you should. It just comes from Poland, Ukraine, Russia, just that whole little area. But it's safe to say that your great-grandfather ate these foods. The holla bread. All right, real quick. Holla bread. I know holla bread is being used a lot. Very light. I like it better. It's better than regular bread. The holla bread, now what? Now go for latkes, man. Cheers. Okay, this is tradition. Latkes. Just slide it right out. I like this, because it was way healthier chasing than a hash brown. It's probably not just potato that's in there, but look. Yo, you know I'm looking at what it looks like, pot stickers. Broggy's it. We have a mushroom sauerkraut one, and then we're going to have the potato ones. Broggy's. Sauerkraut and mushroom one. Mmm. Potatoes, I'd say is probably the most, you know, to the point one, to the culture. We are on to our gravy sauce dishes here at B&H. We got a canis. We got some stuffed cabbage, both Polish and Ukrainian glasses. Okay. Gravy canis. It's almost like a mashed potato ball, because it has that wrapping on it. So do you guys call this sauce or gravy? Gravy. See, this is gravy, not sauce. Stuffed cabbage is one of actually a dish that I've had before. What's going on this one? Stuffed cabbage. That was all veggie. It was very herbaceous. All the parsley and all the other herbs are coming through real strong. This tuna sandwich actually looks fire. Tuna melt. Tuna melt on holla bread. That holla bread is like nice and toasted with a little butter. This was like the best thing in 1938. That was really good.  Aren't you guys, we are down to our last three items here at B&H. We've got matzo ball soup. We've got this kind of like a crepe almost. It's usually more sweet. You know, you can have that savory taste. Yo, maybe is that why Jewish people like egg rolls and Chinese food? Because this kind of looks like a big egg roll. I thought it was a cannoli at first. Everybody's just referencing what they know from their culture. Cheese Blitz. Damn, is this more like a breakfast food? A little after dinner or even during dinner, you know? This is really delightful. Yo, that cheese is sweet. I didn't expect that. So it was like a crepe. They rolled it up and then fried it. This might have been the sleeper. That's really good. Blinks was the sleeper. Yo, the texture and the crispiness of this blinks top notch, man. With closer foods, like, you get something that is so specific that it's almost hard to find. That's why places like these are so special because back then they needed something cheap and they needed something that would follow their religion. So they all came in with lots of... Matzo ball soup. All right. That has a lot of dill and it tastes supernatural. It's not as salty. It's not as... Yeah. I'm not going to feel it later. Yeah, I agree. So this is pretty good. Not bad. Go for it, Liam. You got to try this, man. I'm assuming this recipe is unchanged for hundreds of years. 100% man. This is borscht. Great, great, great. Grandfather's probably in this back in Poland. I got to say something. This borscht is very red versus I've seen borscht that are a little bit more purple. Yeah. You know what I mean? I'm just going to dip my jala bread in it. There I go.  The finish is all with an egg cream. You know what my takeaway in these aged areas is that it's actually really healthy. The food was high quality and you don't stick around since 1938 being successful without a quality product. Like it's adapted over the years and it's just it's a testament to the neighborhood. You know? I would definitely give this a five out of five out of two in a moment. I'm definitely coming back probably tomorrow while I'm working. Now our next spot is called Orchard Grocer. It's here on Orchard Street over in the Lower East Side. It's started by two Jewish sisters that are vegan and they serve some kosher items not all kosher. It's definitely nice to see like a newer place representing like a more older culture, you know but it's enlightening, you know? I'm definitely gonna probably come in here once or twice. Pretty dope to see a modern kosher spot open up and the soft serve I'm already trying. Let's go in. This is not a Jewish grocery store but they have some Jewish items so let's find them. Tell us about this. Matzo Balsu in the inbox, you know? So this is how you make Matzo Balsu? I mean if you want it quick at home I guess so. It's straight to the point. So this is the inbox, right? Yeah, that makes sense. Okay. Now I'm not saying that this is a Jewish item but it is a pig-less pork rind. Why have to get these? They're getting old. Hella hot. So Liam, what do we got over here? We got Matzo. This is probably if not the most famous Jewish cuisine in America across the world. It's eaten on every holiday.  Jewish people love appetizers we put a little bit of fish on it a little bit of anything but really I like it plain honestly I'm a pretty plain person.  I don't know if it's kosher though. Alright you guys these are the sandwiches from Orchard Grocery. They're all vegan there's no meat although that looks very realistic there's no salmon in there and it's they're from Jewish sisters and it's deli food it's something that's within the history of Jewish culture. I definitely think the kosher thing it kind of goes along with the vegan trend they coincide with each other. What kind of tree is this fake salmon off of like carrots? I think it's just tomato bro. Oh wow it's tomato that looks like salmon locks this is a vegan salmon locks bagel vegan and kosher it's almost like the mixture of an old trend and a new trend so we got the tuna fish made out of chickpea this is the healthiest thing I've ever ate in years I'm deciding it's for oh my god what kind of bread is this you guys know it's rye I think it's rye the rubin here is interesting because this is supposed to imitate corn beef here it's super bright this is the rubin vegan they did an incredible job visually imitating the meat hold on man I gotta eat this salmon locks by itself yeah it's kind of salty like salmon locks too what the hell this rubin kind of tastes like meat I think this cream cheese is made out of coconut milk instead of regular milk oh that's why you taste the coconut in this alright we're gonna try these vegan pork rinds you guys have had the barbecue fritos? yeah just like that the vegan? it does taste like me a little bit what did you guys think was the most impressive straight up flavor wise I have never had a vegan rubin I did not know they were gonna do vegan pastrami they tasted that much like it I was very impressed because pastrami has like that very like true meaty flavor it's very salty and usually you get a lot of pastrami when you eat a sandwich but man that being vegan is mind blowing now you guys got a modernized grocery Chinese are the only ones they don't have a modern grocery a modern hipster one we don't have a prediction by the end of this year you will have one alright you guys that does it for our Jewish food crawl part 2 we did a lot of dope stuff we saw some old stuff some new stuff we talked about the relationship between Chinese people and Jewish people we talked about the different types of Jewish people it just shows the evolution and culture cuisine and culture foods and Jewish food and we see how something from 60 years ago can transition into a mocha burger which is serving American style food people shouldn't come out of their comfort zone go to a Jewish spot really indulge maybe I think down the line I'm going to end up eating more kosher food just because there's going to be more good kosher restaurants than I want to go to shout out to Marco Lombardi for being in the video like we said Jewish, Chinese, Italian we've been living in the Lower East side together for 100 years we all get to see all the cuisines progressing it's cool to see all of us hang out in one video and until next time we're out peace checking out new neighborhoods interacting people and I think the more you see the more you realize that we're more similar than different and little things like understanding each other ultimately can go a long way there was some comments about the last video that was like oh maybe he didn't really talk about the different levels of kosher because there's kosher like level one and then I feel like there's 10 so like kosher it has a line that you can cross or don't cross you know I am what you call a humanistic Jew so there's levels of Judaism so I don't practice Judaism I don't have that culture and I'm indulged with this heritage so when you talk to someone that may be kosher in the sense that they want to celebrate their history they might be kosher on the holiday they might be kosher situationally but maybe not their entire life is kosher because it's expensive to keep up it's just a lot to get done it's kind of inconvenient exactly but if you have like aesthetics or orthodox Jews 100% kosher everything they buy is kosher and that's why they're in these communities that


Hey guys, welcome back. Up next we have Skyler Tanner. He is one of the top high-intensity trainers in the country currently. He is also the youngest super slow certified personal trainer in history and he's currently one of the general managers at Efficient Exercise in Austin, Texas. His speech today will be called Great Expectations, Training Over a Lifetime, and here he is. Now normally if you all have been sitting here for an incredibly long time I would have pulled the priest and asked you all to sit up, shake hands with your neighbor, talk to someone, stretch your legs out, but you all just came in so we'll we'll get right over that to the good stuff. I'm gonna start off with a story. Anthony as you know or maybe if you follow his blog last summer he was couchsurfing across America and it came through Austin and he had a couple workouts, one with myself and one with Keith, our genetic freak whom y'all will listen to later on over the course of this weekend and it came through for a couple workouts and Austin in the summer is like Orlando, super humid plus about 10 degrees and he goes through a workout and having met Anthony he always kind of has a look of kind of staring off slightly squinty eyes a little bit on his face. So imagine after a workout in which he effectively got sucker punched metabolically he's really looking like this. He's going I'm gonna walk to Whole Foods from your studio and then that's like seven miles in the heat there's no shade there's no sidewalks in my in the town in which I train that rooms for big trucks were in Texas. So I put him in my car and we go to Whole Foods now in Austin you go to Whole Foods because it's 88,000 square feet of grocery store it would be like if you cared so much about Publix to take people there for events for wine tastings for cheese tastings 88,000 feet of all sorts of wonderful things hippie girls possibly wearing bras or maybe not in the salad section sleeve tattoos of all sorts crazy hair that makes Fuji's look tame and you have to you park in a parking garage you go up three flights of escalator so we're going towards the grilled meats area and Anthony's kind of walk in and we're talking about something and he goes stops full stop and he goes wait are you libertarian and I'm like I'm taking it back and going we're just talking about fitness women Austin yeah yeah yeah okay and he went boom right back into what he was talking about before to get his whole chicken that's what he was really there for that he's gonna eat with his bare hands so that that's the first time I ever met Anthony and here we are a year later at this event so he asked me to speak after I did a blog post that I called the six-year itch was it all a waste I'm a personal trainer and as introduced I've been a personal trainer since I was 16 years old as the first time I took money for training I was certified a year later as the super the youngest super slow instructor in the known universe at the time as my old boss used to say and I've been doing it ever since something I kind of fell into and now I'm working on a on a master's degree in exercise science maybe I'll go get a PhD I don't know if that's just for my ego calling myself doctor I really don't know I'm just being honest there but the point is I really like the stuff and so I've tried everything and you're seeing me here I'm tall I'm lanky I'm not muscular what am I going to tell you all about proper exercise I think I got a few things to tell you about but mostly I'm gonna be a buzzkill I'm gonna tell you that there are limits and I'm gonna ask you to explore personally what you are going to do when you reach them the blog post I wrote was sort of a long-form version of that what have I done over the course of my training career I've done super slow I have done high hypertrophy specific to training I've done conjugate periodization I've done waveloading techniques I've done pendulase hormonal manipulation technique in which you bring yourself to the verge of breaking you back off and you hope your testosterone ends up a little higher than when you started I've done in German volume training I've done super brief heavy-duty training everything in between and at my heaviest I was much fatter and I was 220 I was bull strong I could pull 455 on a deadlift for five repetitions and I felt awful it was just too heavy for my body and so now as I stand here I'm about 180 pounds and so the question is if you're the my goal was to get supremely muscular superhero muscular I grew up drawing superheroes that was my shtick comics and superheroes and I could never achieve that well hell what the hell are you supposed to do after that if if if you can't quite get to your goal if all the puritanical work ethic in the world isn't gonna get you there what the hell else are you supposed to do that was kind of an exploration of that and as it turns out as it turns out there are limits and there's some good science behind those limits that play out again and again and again no matter how intense and advanced our training techniques become these limits are structural they're biological and that's the extent of what I'm going to talk about first in this talk


xis at the likelihood of which and the enthusiasm for is possibly less in total now in these circumstances that doesn't happen what then happens to my constituents mortgages go through the roof right that's that's that's helpful to have clarification I mean do you agree with that Mr Armstrong well I'm not sure they would go through the roof I think what would happen is without those changes people would question this is before you've actually created this new currency so in this tricky interim period people would start to question this you'd have a question mark of what would happen to the biggest mortgage lenders where would they be incorporated and if they were not incorporated in Scotland would they provide branch banking into the rest of into Scotland into this independent country when they do this branch banking they're going to have to make a guess about what's going to happen to the riskiness of this country and that's going to depend on what's going to happen to the new exchange rate now if this is done in a way generating fiscal surfaces perhaps they have confidence that that exchange rate can be maintained at a reasonable level if they don't and the deficits remain large then presumably they won't have so much confidence and they will build as Ronny said a risk premium into this and then they would be high presumably the rational position for any mortgage provider based in England is not to touch the Scottish market with a barge pole on the basis that it's all risk and no guarantees well if you if you pay for this risk so people do offer cross border mortgages but they if it's going to be in a separate currency then you have to wear this person is going to take a lot of risk on and you when you give the mortgage you know it's quite tough to get a mortgage these days already without thinking about this person might actually have their wages and so on paid in a different currency is that going to work the same value so this is a through the roof observation that Professor McDonald made is that correct well I guess I just don't use terms like to the roof I use terms like this will be a risk that the lender would have to price in when thinking about the mortgage that they would offer right and if you people if you behave very credibly and have run fiscal circuits and so on then there's you know over a sustained period of time then I think that the idea of introducing your own currency if you have that sort of background of proven fiscal conservatism then I think that that background then it is a possibility without all these things happening but if you don't have that if you're going to introduce your own currency you continue to run big fiscal deficit you don't really have any meaningful effects of reserves then clearly there's a risk then it would translate into higher interest rates Owen you wanted to come in on that yes just very very briefly on the sort of practicalities of new of new currency creation and the point about you know sort of doing it quickly and any kind of transition I completely agree and I mean all the all the kind of analysis everybody also would agree that temporary currency arrangements don't work for obvious reasons I mean we do have some relatively recent experience of contemplating the creation of a new currency and that was that was Greece when it was you know possibly bowing out of the eurozone but practicalities around that were worked through by lots of big international banks when there was a time it's passed now but there was a time where it looked as if you know the drachma might be recreated in some form but of course that's a different situation to the creation of the euro itself where there was no remaining currency everything was becoming the euro and the great difficulty with one of the one of the issues with creating a currency sort of out of sterling is that the option will be there certainly during any transition to stay to stay with sterling in terms of the point you're making about our members not not speaking out and so on I mean our industry as I say has said a lot on this issue it may not have come through statements by companies sort of in our membership nonetheless there is a lot of thinking out there Bank of America Merrill Lynch Climal Benson there's a whole long list and they are all very clear in what they say that the currency union is not going to happen and that a new currency is the likely outcome but to your question would it be sensible for this committee to say well look the 18 month time scale isn't isn't practical I know I'm stating the obvious but I think it's worth restating the 18 month timetable is entirely predicated on the belief assertion whatever you want to call it that there will be a currency union and I am reasonably sure that if the committee makes that kind of call then the answer will be but because there'll be a currency union it will be achievable within 18 months so I think there's a difficulty in the obviously politically pitched statements made on either side of the debate and distinguishing between them and the sort of empirical rational analysis that you see through financial analysis and the kind of analysis I think you're you're seeing here so I'm not trying to tip toe round anything but I just think the position of the Scottish Government is that on their 18 month time scale it's predicated on a set of beliefs and one of them is that there will be a currency union. Now can I actually can I just come back if I could I think the five the five points that you you made that you sought clarification on um you wanted to have clarification about what currency could be used well like you haven't got that um under what terms could Scotland be a member of the EU you haven't really got that either um what would be the effect of independence in the current single market for financial services in the UK? We've made progress with that we know that there would have to be a separate regulator we know that there'd be a separate tax system I suppose that's always been obvious uh of course what happens to the the market the market has to divide effectively for jurisdictional purposes into two there is an overlay there around the currency if you if you think there would be a currency union then maybe there'll be some kind of common regulatory framework at the prudential level but at the conduct level that is what do what should companies do day to day and how do they deal with customers that would have to be done separately introducing compliance costs separately but also the need for separate services and products you can't sell the same pension into Ireland for example as you sell it into the UK because they have different tax systems and different regulatory frameworks so there would be a fragmentation of the current UK single market for most financial services at the retail level into two markets and we know that that's a consequence so that's half a tick is it or a complete tick uh well it's it's not I mean the Scottish you know I make a general point I mean I think what the Scottish the Scottish Government isn't at the moment in a position to tell us all that much about what would happen most of independence because obviously they don't know who'll be in government and we don't know the outcome of the negotiations that have sort of sat you know behind most of the conversation this morning but if you look at what they say on these issues they do say that there would remain a single market for financial services I saw in the letter that or in the article published yesterday in the FT that there was reference to a common regulatory framework I'm not sure what that really means unless you say there is a currency even and there be a common banking prudential regulation but as I say conduct regulation I think it's now accepted on all sides and by the Scottish Government even by the Scottish Government that there would be a separate conduct regulator so it's it's the Scottish Government continues to refer to the possibility of some sort of common regulatory structure but I think we and certainly everybody else has concluded that they would to all intents and purposes be separate marketplaces for financial services I think the fourth point that you had with them how long would the transition to independence take and how would the process be managed feel you get satisfactory answers on that well there's so many unknowns we've as I say made the effort to contact people who are not you know involved in the political debate here I think as I said earlier the the 18 month timescale is predicated on a whole a whole set of assumptions and beliefs which you know I guess are genuinely held but which are not necessarily held by others who would be party to that process certainly the EU aspects of the transition it is clear that they would take a good while I think it's impossible to put a date on it or a period of time the intervention of the UK general election is clearly going to slow things down as well so our kind of estimate would be you know at the upper end of three four five years I mean I can't it's all very very vague nobody knows so and ask your question no we haven't learned all that much more but we have learned you know for example that accession or the the approval of all the other EU member states of whatever arrangement takes about two years and the fifth point would what would be the requirement what would be the requirements for financial regulation yeah so we've made some progress on that as I say I think it has always been clear that under EU and other international obligations you have to have your own financial regulatory frameworks if you're looking at a new currency which I think you know those of us not already you know politically committed on either side would say is in the long term at least the most likely outcome you would need all the regulatory structures obviously including central bank and everything else if one posits a currency union you might envisage some very unusual arrangement if you could get away with negotiating it in the EU but certainly a the creation of a separate regulatory jurisdiction seems inescapable the we did touch earlier on in the question of line lender of last resort are the issues related to that that people feel we haven't covered only to say that the ultimate lender of last resort is always the state unless you want to go to the IMF it's always your own country the central bank carries that for you but the people who stand behind the central bank is the government of the country and in these in the present circumstances that we are discussing the the Scottish government would be in a weak position since it would be unable effectively to to meet the financial costs of being a lender of last resort in any sort of turmoil or economic chaos either in Scotland or across the world is that a fair set of assumptions so the for Scottish incorporated banks the lender of last resort would ultimately be the Scottish government because of the amount of debt whether the Scotland takes a fair share of the debt then its capacity to do that is going to be necessarily limited and in those circumstances the rational thing for Scottish registered banks would be to move that would be a factor persuading them to consider locating into the rest of the UK so lender of last resort sorry was that a yes it was yeah it was a I think that well first of all I don't I don't run any bank in fact and mind one of the two big ones which is probably a good thing it would be their commercial decision but one of the serious issues would be first of all we have to remember that lender of last resort offers a menu of options from day to day transactions which international banks from all around the world can access so Scottish banks will be able to access that day to day transactions no problem as an independent country the tricky bit is when you get towards financial distress and you want to have accept emergency lending assistance which is where for emergency lending assistance the decision according to the memorandum of understanding between the bank of england and the treasury that decision is made by the chance of the exchequer the chance of exchequer will make that decision presumably based on the institute the interest of his constituents which is the UK taxpayers which is why ultimately when things get difficult it's the state that stands behind the central bank as the lender of last resort and when banks decide where they're going to base themselves that will not be a small matter in their deliberation but I mean just to cut across that if I could I mean in as much as I understand it it would be rational in these circumstances for any bank to to move to have a bigger umbrella over them or armed around them or whatever metaphor you know you want to use because presumably the danger for anybody in Scotland running a financial institution would be that the Scottish state would not be able to step in and support them in their hour of crisis should an hour arrive and therefore the sense would be just to make sure you switched them is that is that not seems perfectly reasonable it seems it seems like a reasonable factor in their location I think that the where you're incorporated so where you would be able to first of all where you'd be located where you'd be regulated and where the government would be much more prepared because of course they don't always offer emergency assistance to all banks whereas much more likely to do it is within its own border because this is taxpayers money and so clearly that is a strong pull to be located behind a government with strong resources and it's no surprise when you look around the world look at small states with big banking sectors Hong Kong huge reserves Singapore huge reserves well is it Switzerland not as big as those two but you know physically very sound that's not an accident right fine so I mean yes okay the the the consequences of moving I mean I understand the point you make about bank some banks being the distinction between deserving and undeserving in the event of who'd be bailed out but I mean coming back just to clarify then am I right in thinking that there would be substantial job implications for people deciding to relocate in order to have the protection unless you know comes back to the point that we were touching on earlier on and the rational thing for banks to do to obtain the protections to relocate and the way in which the system operates means that this couldn't just simply be brass plating it would mean substantial number of jobs moving as well the exact number of which am in determined at the moment and when we seek further clarification on that but that would be the direction of travel so the incorporation of the registered office for registered purposes the scenario I've been talking about would move to the rest of the United Kingdom that doesn't mean to say you've stopped doing banking in Scotland obviously no you then create a subsidiary or a branch to do this banking now an important question which Mr Kelly might shed some light on is how institutions will consider to do banking with branches rather than hut offices they're different animals they've got different legal sanding so it's not just a simple case of well just move the brass plate and everything will be okay everything stays the same it's not quite as simple as that so as far as you know I'm no banking industry expert all I'm saying is that your lender of last resort is always your government and where you are registered or incorporated at the same term according to company's house will determine which is the institution that does the regulations and if one has got deep pockets and can print its own money then that's clearly got an advantage against one that doesn't David I'm not absolutely sure about this but it seems to me that the employment issue is is is a difficult one to pin down we do have lots of institutions working in the in the financial sector in Scotland who aren't brass plated in Scotland but on the other hand my understanding and I could be wrong is that one of the key points will be that where the brass plate is is where the liability for corporation tax resides and that would be very important for the Scottish public finances just very briefly following up I think in general terms if one is asking if there is a yes phone Scotland becomes an independent country how would large either banks or others insurers how would they sort of view it as as a market I think the decision on whether to branch into the market or to have a subsidiary is it's hard to generalize it depends on the nature of the business depends on the volume of the business and other things it also depends on whether it's a business that requires or or has an important part of the regulatory approval capital sort of adequacy and other things because then different regulatory requirements come in and of course we can make some assumptions about the regulatory requirements of an independent Scotland as a separate jurisdiction on the basis that they will be complying with EU frameworks and other things but nonetheless there's quite a lot of scope within jurisdictions to to decide those things there's usually a controversy in in the UK about whether a Chinese bank should be allowed to be a branch or a subsidiary for example so there's you know there's issues there but in general terms I think some in our industry have indeed made it clear that if there was a yes phone they would examine Scotland as a market and they would then reach a decision on whether and how they should service that market and I think that's that that point's been made made made clearly by a number of a number of a number of companies so it's difficult to generalize but I think it will be very much driven by the size of the market I think it's reasonable to make a comparison again with Ireland we have a number of members who operate on the basis of a UK and Ireland business unit so they look at Ireland as a market they look at the opportunities there and they look at the costs and then they decide how they will be active in that market but in that case they have to comply separately with Irish requirements not only on regulation of conduct and other things but also capital adequacy and other things so I come back to my point about the difference between serving one jurisdiction and the difference between serving a number of jurisdictions just to go back a bit in essence what you're seeing is that Scotland had been independent because in the need we didn't have an RBS I suppose that's directed me so well you'd have to give me more information so if people had known in 2000 that Scotland was about to be independent in 2008 then presumably RBS would have never been the size or made some of those decisions by taking over ABN Amro in 2007 presumably the Scots would be much wiser not to have made those daft decisions so it's kind of hypothetical if you said you had an institution the size and the weakness of RBS in 2008 and then Scotland was an independent country then clearly it wouldn't have enough wouldn't have been able to stand behind it so what would have happened is then the well actually we're now seriously the role of a sort of imagination but presumably in that circumstance it would have involved a number of other countries perhaps including well we have an example it's called Ireland they had a very large financial system which got into very serious trouble that they couldn't afford to support oh and the SMP leader at that time was in favour of lighter touch regulation if you recall the witness shrunk I mean she's the reasonable way of submitting that oh and you wanted to add anything um not really no I mean I think that's I think that's right yeah um I just like to add the point about competitiveness and it's really trying to get at the question you're asking about whether firms would move I think it's important to remember and this isn't often brought out if at all in the debate that even if we were able to achieve a formal sterling zone post independence and remove all of the uncertainty surrounding that still at the heart of that you would have the oil issue and um you would have important changes in competitiveness because of that and basically irrespective therefore of the regime that you have you're always going to have this tension and competitiveness and my prediction would be that any company be at a financial institution or a non-financial institution the proportion of trade it does with the rest of the UK I believe that it will move it's uh you know that proportion of its business at least to the rest of the UK because of these competitiveness changes I mean you want to internalise these changes you don't want oil to be affecting your business costs in Scotland as it would if Scotland became independent so I believe that in itself would indicate that it would be rational for firms to move at least a proportion of their trade with our UK to our UK to internalise that effect right can I just put one one final point to you if I could I mean the I mean this has hardly been an occasion for for lightness and joy has it I mean it's it's been all rather gloomy in terms of the prospect I mean how would you respond to somebody that says look you're all you're doing is just talking Scotland down and a bit like the shipbuilding industry that you know we are so good that people would you know give us money and orders and everything would be fine and you know you're just looking in the gloomy side and you know all this is just unilaterated negativism and scaremongering and everything will be fine I mean how do you respond to that argument because presumably that's an argument that's going to be put well if I can say something outspoken as I've said before I believe at the moment the Scottish public are being deceived I've used the word ddupt by telling them that they can have a currency arrangement which no economist that I'm aware of who studied currency arrangements would propose that is that is a fact and therefore it's not talking Scotland down it's basically wanting what would be best for Scotland if Scotland were to become independent it's very clear from all of the evidence all the economic evidence that a currency union is is not the way to go and I don't think that's talking Scotland down I think that's being realistic and being honest I think it's really important for a for every country to be able to be clear eyed and realistic about things I think it's it's dangerous to be too polyanna about how about what any on any subject actually and our industry is it's in the nature of what we do to try and be dispassionate and to look at numbers and often people you know criticise us for that for being sort of unimagined or lacking in poetic imagination or whatever it might be but I come back to all the analysis that's been published by our industry it is very clear that a currency union is not going to happen it is very clear that joining the EU from independent Scotland will not be straightforward if some go further there's some you know very colourful language and some of this stuff and they are very clear as well about the impacts on credit rating and other things so just trying to distinguish between the things that might be said by a body like SFE in terms of representing its members in what is a pretty uncomfortable political process and what the cold eyed analysis of large financial institutions who do this stuff all the time for markets all around the world they'll be doing the same thing for the impacts on I don't know the Russian economy of the Ukraine crisis or whatever it might be and I think I tend to look to those sources for guidance rather than those which are clearly on either side of an attempt to win a particular referendum outcome. Well I think the debate union needs to be carried out in a rational way with the analysis of the various factors being carried out in committees such as this and you've heard from experts here. I think that is what is important so that the public out there have got a good set of evidence from which they can form their own judgments. Now if there are business and elsewhere who have genuine concerns about the currency, about Europe, about the costs of operating across two jurisdictions are very genuine then you know I don't think that that is talking Scotland down. I think that's expressing very real concerns into the debate but at the end of the day it's for the people of Scotland to make up their mind by weighing the evidence that they've had. Just before I came in I was looking at the statue of Adam Smith across the street here, one of Scotland's greatest economists but I would go to possibly a more famous other one David Hume who's great, one of whom's great insights was let's look at the evidence which seems kind of obvious now but at a time when kings thought that they were ruled by divine right and there were huge religious influences on on the way that people thought maybe was quite an insight. Anyway it seems to me that we've tried as far as we can to look at the evidence and the evidence is based on the history of our own country and other countries around the world. Now that's not to say there's not a chance that the Scottish economy post independence would would be radically different and maybe much more productive. I think the evidence on that sort of thing is that reorientation of an economy such as Ireland for example takes a very long time and there's a lot of political and economic difficulty along the way. So I'm not trying to talk Scotland down in this at all but as far as I can see what we've been doing is looking at the evidence and trying to draw as clear conclusions as we can from that evidence. I would imagine that the independence debate a lot of things other than economics matter to people and we're just looking at one part of the economics debate which is the currency options and I think pointing out that one currency option looks inferior to another one. Having some sort of informal currency union does not look as good as having your own currency as a way of achieving the outcome you want. I personally think that's my professional responsibility to point that out and that's all that we seek to do. In terms of other people's views well there have been surveys of international economists. There was one published last month I think by the Centre for Macroeconomics which is available on the website and people can see what they think about the broader economic and the currency actually context. So there are other people's views. I think most of those economists in that survey or half of them at least are non-UK nationals so you can see an international perspective on this as well from the Centre for Macroeconomics. My only angle is to look at the currency and debt issues and on those alone that's the only issue that I'm giving evidence here. Colleagues are there any observations that you wish to make? Any any answers un-given to questions that we haven't covered? I mean we've learned I think that Adam Smith and David Hume are both no voters and Pollyanna is a yes voter. That has been valuable but any final points that you want to make there? If there's anything that you think of that you wish on the way home that you said perhaps you could let us have something in writing I mean you've been denounced in the financial times today as an unbalanced panel I'm not quite sure what that means since he seemed to have been reasonably balanced to me but and but not in the sense of deranged I mean though possibly well I don't know actually what was meant by the colliders of me in the financial times but can I thank you very much? I think it'd be fair to say that we've not been engaging in project fear but project reality and the focus and evidence is very helpful. No I think this has been very helpful for us today we hope to have this um out streamed at some time tomorrow so hopefully a wider audience will be aware of the sort of discussions we've had and the points we've made.

When you're out in the woods for a nice weekend, you oftentimes bring along a tent for protection against the elements. These caterpillars are doing the same thing. There are many species of tent caterpillars and some other types of insects that also produce tents. The most common and damaging in Wyoming is the western tent caterpillar, which can be seen in May and June. If you've seen tent producing caterpillars in the fall, it is most likely the fall webworm. Tent caterpillars rarely cause plant damage other than some defoliation. The western tent caterpillar is the most destructive and sometimes produces a widespread outbreak, which at its highest level can kill stands of aspen. Caterpillars lay their eggs on stems which overwinter. In the spring, they emerge as caterpillars. The caterpillars construct a silk intent for shelter where they rest during the day and venture out to feed mostly at night. They expand the tent as they grow. When they are fully grown, they leave the tent and spend a silk cocoon where they pupate into moths. They only have one life cycle per year. Tent caterpillars serve as a food source for birds, predacious bugs, hunting wasps, and many other animals. Although a nuisance in the backyard, tent caterpillars rarely reach high populations in our western forests. From the University of Wyoming Extension, I'm Mae Smith, Exploring the Nature of Wyoming.
