Uncle Roger Slams Ranveer Brar's Take On Ajinomoto: 'Why Giving Fake News?'
Last Updated: Chef Ranveer while preparing fried rice warned against using Ajinomoto (MSG), saying it is unhealthy for children and may cause "memory loss". Chef Ranveer Brar, one of India's most celebrated culinary personalities, is admired not only for his exceptional cooking skills but also for mentoring aspiring chefs and creating food-centric films that celebrate his passion for cuisine. Recently, he caught the attention of popular content creator Nigel Ng, better known as Uncle Roger, who reviewed Ranveer's Indian-style fried rice in his trademark humorous and light-hearted style. While the video was full of jokes and entertaining commentary, one particular moment stood out and is now getting a lot of attention online. In the clip, Chef Ranveer is seen preparing fried rice and warns against using Ajinomoto (MSG), saying it is unhealthy for children and may cause memory loss. MSG, or Monosodium Glutamate, is a common flavour enhancer often used in Chinese cuisine. He even joked further, 'Who need therapy when you can just forget your trauma?" The video was captioned, 'Memory loss not always bad thing." Watch the video here: The video gained traction online and accumulated over two million views. The comments section was filled with mixed reactions. One user jokingly wrote, 'I've been eating MSG since I was kid and still remember my childhood traumas." Another added, 'One guy 'expert' that went to a Chinese restaurant said he had a headache the day after—and after that, MSG has been vilified." On the other hand, some users still expressed concern. 'Yes, it does. Unfortunately, it's toxic and it builds up in your brain. It even kills brain cells, and it's harmful in different ways," one comment read. An individual shared, 'See, I love you, Uncle Roger, but believe me, I would still hesitate to add MSG in my daily cooking. I'm okay consuming it in small portions outside in hotels. This is due to decades of MSG being looked down on in India. Not sure where it started, but it's something we've all grown up hearing." Towards the end of the review, Uncle Roger praised Chef Ranveer's dish and called it well-made and flavourful. He also shared his thoughts on Indian-Chinese cuisine, saying that he finds it 'interesting" because it brings together Chinese techniques and Indian ingredients in a unique fusion.

Sabio Celebrates Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month with Creator Television®
TORONTO, May 13, 2025 /CNW/ -- Sabio Holdings (TSXV: SBIO) (OTCQB: SABOF) (the " Company" or " Sabio"), a Los Angeles-based ad-tech company specializing in helping top global brands reach, engage, and validate (R.E.V.) streaming TV audiences, announced today special monthlong programming, and recognition of members from its leadership team celebrating Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month on Creator Television ® (Creator TV). Creator TV is the first creator-led streaming network and content studio dedicated to bringing the authenticity and energy of social media storytelling to TV. AANHPI Heritage Month, an annual observance since 1992, celebrates the contributions of the AANHPI community to American history, culture, and society. Throughout the month of May, Creator TV network's Free Ad-Supported Streaming Television (FAST) channel will feature some of the world's most entertaining social stars, including Malaysia's Uncle Roger, The Fake Food Show with Evan Yee (Chinese American content creator), and QPark (South Korean American content creator), along with other tentpole content creators Jenny Lorenzo, Trey Kennedy, Lenarr Young, and Julie Nolke. Additionally, the month is a time to recognize leaders from the AANHPI community behind the scenes of Sabio and Creator TV. Led by CEO and Co-Founder Aziz Rahimtoola, Sabio is National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC)-certified, which requires that a business be at least 51% owned, managed, and controlled by minority group members. Sabio is also one of the advertising technology industry's fastest growing companies. "Our mission is to build a more inclusive and diverse media ecosystem where all voices are represented," said Rahimtoola. Reflecting on his own background, he added, "I'm a proud first generation Muslim Indian American and father. To bring Creator TV to life for my daughter to see faces like hers and others is a dream achieved. At Creator TV, we welcome inclusive and authentic voices." Creator TV's General Manager Joe Ochoa said, "As a Filipino American, I grew up not seeing myself on screen. When I started working in TV nearly 20 years ago, I didn't see anyone who looked like me in the executive ranks. Today, I'm proud to be part of an organization that embraces diversity of thought at the leadership level, and all levels. At Creator TV, we lean into our nuances, our lived experiences, our unique sensibilities. This is seen throughout our network and the content we provide. I love that I can help make space for the next generation of great storytellers." Ochoa continued, "It's important to celebrate the achievements of today's leaders and encourage younger generations to go beyond what they think is possible. This month is also an opportunity to share our culture and stories with other communities. It creates conversations that promote understanding and appreciation, not just in May, but all year round." Creator TV's Head of Operations Kristi Chiou said, "AANHPI Heritage Month is a time of reflection and pride. I grew up in a traditional Taiwanese American home where success meant becoming a doctor or a lawyer, but I followed my passion for music, which led me to a creative career in media." Chiou explained further, "Early on, I saw how few women and people of color held leadership roles. As an AANHPI executive at Creator TV, I'm proud to be part of that shift. I take pride in being part of the change in front of and behind the camera — helping shape stories and opportunities that reflect the real diversity of the world we live in." Creator Television® (Creator TV) is the first creator-led streaming network and content studio dedicated to bringing the authenticity and energy of social media storytelling to TV. We are redefining television by producing and distributing original TV shows led by the world's most entertaining social stars.

(Video) 'Honestly, Not Bad': Uncle Roger Eats Exotic Rats In Thailand With Mark Wiens
Exotic food is one of the things Thailand is best known for. A stroll through the streets of any Thai city offers visitors an array of unique snacks and local delicacies, from crispy crickets to deep-fried cockroaches. Recently, Uncle Roger, the popular YouTuber and comedian, took his taste buds on a truly unforgettable adventure in Thailand, joined by renowned food vlogger Mark Wiens. In a video that has quickly gained traction online, Uncle Roger, whose real name is Nigel Ng, stepped well outside his culinary comfort zone. Together with Mark, they ventured to a local restaurant specialising in jungle food and exotic meats. The feast included eel curry and fried garlic frog, but the most jaw-dropping item on the menu was undoubtedly the rat. Mark explained that the rats served were not the type found on the streets of Bangkok. Known as 'núana,' these rats are found in rice paddy fields and are considered clean. Initially hesitant, Uncle Roger was encouraged by the vlogger to give the dish a try. With a mix of curiosity and dread, he took a bite and was pleasantly surprised. 'Honestly, not bad,' he remarked, adding that if someone had told him it was chicken, he would have believed them. The video quickly drew thousands of reactions, with fans applauding Uncle Roger's adventurous spirit. Many viewers were fascinated by the insight into a lesser-known aspect of Thai cuisine, while some Thai netizens commented that such dishes are not commonly enjoyed by the general population; rather, they are more niche and region-specific. Others also commented on how hilarious this duo are. This jungle food adventure highlights not only the diversity of Thai cuisine but also the importance of respecting local culinary traditions. Uncle Roger's collaboration with Mark Wiens was seen by fans as a long-awaited moment, bringing together two icons in the world of food who have each made a name for themselves over the years.
