"We are excited to bring The Fung Brothers' huge energy and unique sense of humor to FYI to cover food in a fresh and youthful way," said Jana Bennett, President of FYI and LMN.
Seattle born, and now Los Angeles-based, The Fung Brothers have always had a passion for comedy, hip-hop and food. After college, they decided to share these passions by making original sketches, rap songs and food videos. Today, their YouTube fan base is nearly one million strong.
