I don’t think the people of Vietnam understand the meaning of good food.
Creativity is the best tool to use when roasting a particular person or persons. In this case, the roast is targeted at a Vietnamese because of the reference to its territory.
It passes comments on the taste of the food cooked by the people of Vietnam, it ridicules the food made there which could upset a Vietnamese person big time.
- I don’t think good food is served in Vietnam.
- Vietnamese people should not be chefs, they should try other occupations.
Summer in Vietnam is the same as living in a volcano.
This is a hilarious form of comparison that describes the hotness of summer in Vietnam, likening it to living in a volcano which is a smart way of exaggerating a time period.
The comic tone and context should be put into consideration to make this witty hot jab burn like it should.
- Living in the volcano is better than summer time in Vietnam.
- I would rather live in a volcano than stay in Vietnam during summer time.
I thought banh was supposed to have all sorts of rich ingredients, but yours tastes like pig feet.
Criticizing someone’s cultural dish by comparing it unfavorably to a specific ingredient may be perceived as disrespectful and dismissive of their culinary traditions.
Vietnamese cuisine, including banh mi, is known for its diverse flavors but this expression completely bashes that fact which could set a Vietnamese person off.
- How come your banh tastes like pig feet?
- I would have made a comment about that banh you made but I don’t know how to tell you that it tastes like pig feet.
Vietnamese make good spring rolls, it literally tastes like snacks that are rolled on the ground during spring.
Sarcastic expressions can be funny if put in the right way. An example of one is this statement.
Comparing Vietnamese spring rolls to something on the ground during spring might be interpreted as disrespectful, as it implies a negative association with the taste or quality.
This is why this expression is a typical example of a funny roast for a Vietnamese.
- Your spring rolls must have rolled on the ground during spring.
- Vietnamese love spring rolls, especially the ones that get rolled on the ground.
The only thing you light up as a Vietnamese is the kitchen stove.
Associating a nationality with a stereotype about lighting up a kitchen stove can be seen as a funny roast as it oversimplifies and generalizes an entire group of people.
Vietnamese are known to have a lot of lantern festivals that require light which makes it more ridiculous to limit that aspect to lighting a stove.
- The stove is the only thing you can light up as a Vietnamese my friend.
- How can I say this nicely? Your light should first be useful for my stove.
A Hanoi street vendor makes more money than you earn as a banker.
I think that anyone that this expression is used on should probably see a therapist.
A Hanoi street vendor is a person who sells food on the street of Hanoi, the capital city of Vietnam, to imply that someone who is a banker makes less money than a street vendor is a funny way of describing how low their financial status is.
- Hanoi vendors have more chances of making millions than you do as a banker.
- You are the most poor banker in this country, even Hanoi vendors are multimillionaires next to you.
Is your name Useless? Because you have nothing you’re doing ‘pho’ me.
This is a brilliant use of pun to create a funny roast for a Vietnamese person.
This comment uses a play on words with “pho,” a popular Vietnamese noodle soup, and “for.” While it might be intended as a joke, it can also be perceived as a dismissive roast.
- Your name must be useless because you never have anything ‘pho’ me.
- You always have a problem ‘pho’ me to solve.
I began to change my thoughts about coffee when a Vietnamese person made me one, it was attempted murder.
This could get any group of people to laugh hysterically. This is an exaggerated manner of saying that a Vietnamese person made bad coffee.
‘’Attempted murder’’ as used in the expression is a form of symbolism that represents the horrifying taste of the coffee made by the Vietnamese person.
- Not all coffees are great, have you tried one made by a Vietnamese?
- I don’t think you should make coffee anymore, people might think you’re trying to murder them.
I heard that Vietnamese people are usually jovial, what happened to your soul?
Rhetorical questions that are constructed in a creative way hit the hardest in roast battle. In this case, the question is directed to prove a point that the individual is soulless and lacks any form of jovial behavior.
Asking what happened to the person’s soul is definitely going to make the roast hit harder than it should, which is what we want.
- Vietnamese people are so jovial, on the other hand,I wonder if you have a soul.
- Having no soul must have nothing to do with being a Vietnamese, you are just cruel.
Nobody can ruin the taste of rice like a Vietnamese. Wonderful!
Rice is a popular dish served in Asia which applies to Vietnam, the southern part of Asia.
This kind of expression would be perfect for a Vietnamese person that you might know that’s into the culinary world, this would be a brutal roast because you’re targeting what they care about the most, the taste of their food ( rice)
- How can rice taste this horrible? The answer is a Vietnamese person cooked it.
- If a Vietnamese person prepared rice for you, please don’t eat it.
If you survive the Saigon traffic then you can conquer the world.
Saigon also known as Ho chi Minh is the largest city in Vietnam which creates a link to how this expression is a funny roast to a Vietnamese person.
It emphasizes the chaotic and challenging nature of traffic in Saigon in a light-hearted joke by exaggerating that if a person survives traffic in Saigon the person has conquered the world.
- If you survive the Saigon traffic then you can conquer the world, that’s a fact!
- After beating the traffic in Saigon, I realized that I could conquer the world.
I went to karaoke night in Ho Chi Minh City once, let’s just say I am lucky to still have my ears.
Ho Chi Minh city is the largest city in Vietnam so it’s obvious that there would be a lot of Karaoke places.
This expression becomes a roast by mocking the lack of comportment in a karaoke bar in Vietnam that the noise could literally damage a person’s ears.
- I went to Karaoke night in Ho Chi Minh and I don’t think my ears have ever remained the same.
- Karaoke nights in Ho Chi Minh are not healthy for your ears in any way.
The Dong is a currency that will make your pocket go ding-dong.
‘Dong’ is the name of the currency spent in Vietnam. It’s used in this expression as a light hearted roast to mean that a person rich in Doing currency is loaded in true riches.
The use of the word ‘ ding – dong’ is a funny use of play on words as it makes the roast line funny all together.
- The Dong is a currency that will surely get your doorbell to ring ding-dong.
- Do you think that the currency spent in Vietnam is little? It’s a good old ding-dong type.
I went on a romantic boat ride date with my Bae in Ha Long Bay, my bae decided to break up with me at Ha Long Bay.
The play on words of the word ‘bay’ and ‘bae’ makes this expression hilarious and a creative roast.
Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Vietnam known for its stunning natural beauty, in the context of a breakup might evoke mixed emotions.

You would find more combat training skills with a knife in a Vietnamese kitchen than in any training center in the universe.
This statement seems to make a lighthearted comparison between combat training skills with a knife in a Vietnamese kitchen and those in a training center.
It could exaggerate the skills of Vietnamese chefs with the usage of knives in the kitchen. It could be like combat training.
- If you’re seeking to train in combat with a knife then visit a Vietnamese restaurant.
- I don’t think anyone has more connection with a knife than a Vietnamese.
Have you ever seen an ao- dai tailor? They turn your misery into a dress.
This statement uses a play on words, referring to an ao dai tailor turning “misery into a dress.”
Associating a cultural garment with the concept of turning misery into something tangible might be viewed as insensitive especially to a Vietnamese.
- I asked a tailor to sew a dress but instead she sewed my misery.
- I was not trying to look good until I put the dress on and discovered that I wanted to look normal.
Lanterns during Tet shine less bright than your so-called spotlight.
This statement appears to be a playful comparison between lanterns during Tet (Vietnamese New Year) and a metaphorical spotlight.
It could be perceived as diminishing the cultural significance of Tet lanterns. No Vietnamese person would be cool with this expression.
- Your spotlight shines brighter than the lanterns during Tet.
- You can’t shine as bright as the lanterns during Tet.
If you desire to see weird people in one place at the same time, go to Vietnam.
This statement generalizes and labels people in Vietnam as “weird,” which can be considered as a hot jab or diss to a Vietnamese person.

- You don’t have to look too far for weird people, they are I. Vietnam.
- Weird people are predominant in the region of Vietnam.
Is it because Vietnamese people are from South Asia that everything goes south for them?
This statement perpetuates a stereotype about things “going south,” associating it with being from South Asia.
There’s an element of play on words in the use of the word ‘south’ which figuratively means ‘bad’ in this context.
- I know you’re from the south region but you don’t have to always go south.
- Please let’s not go south again, being Vietnam is not all about going south.
You’re the reason why I don’t believe that Vietnamese people have self respect.
An expression like this completely roast the people of Vietnam like corn. This statement insinuates that a certain individual ( a Vietnamese person) lacks self respect which is ridiculing.
An expression like this must be used in the right context and with the right comic tone to get the best reaction.
- You’re the only reason I still believe that Vietnamese don’t have any shade of self respect.
- I don’t think you realize that your level of self respect is low, I hope it has nothing to do with being a Vietnamese person.
