Questioning the Battle Review of Food Vloggers, Here’s the Message from Mother Anne Avantie: Your Tongue Cannot Represent My Tongue

Kapanlagi.com - The names Ci Mehong and Codeblu are becoming widely known as both sell layer cakes. However, what has caught the attention of netizens more is the feud between them. This conflict began when Codeblu reviewed Ci Mehong's layer cake. Feeling that the criticism was not aligned with the facts and was detrimental to her business, Ci Mehong, who is experienced in the culinary world, could not accept the review.

The feud between these two influencers eventually sparked the curiosity of many food vloggers. They also attempted to assess and compare the quality of the layer cakes made by Ci Mehong and Codeblu. The issue became even more heated and dragged in Codeblu, who had previously been involved in controversies with several other culinary business owners due to her sharp reviews, such as her dispute with CT cake shop.

This viral issue also received a response from the famous fashion designer in the country, Anne Avantie. The woman commonly referred to as 'mother' provided a calming statement on her Instagram account.

"Mother advises that your tongue cannot represent my tongue, so your taste is your taste, and my taste is my taste. You cannot make others like what you like, and vice versa. Is a speech something that can be represented?"

1. Critical Comments on Mother Anne Avantie

In her other post, Bunda Anne also responded to her followers' comments regarding this issue. It's only natural for her to be quite vocal about this, considering Bunda Anne also has a culinary business.

"I don’t know who started this. In Indonesia, Pak Bondan, who is now in heaven, set a good example, doing things the right way. I’m also confused. So what’s the point of reviewing? And for whom? If it’s criticism, I feel like we also need it for our progress and goodness." And to advance other people's businesses is indeed worship, so the purpose of helping food bloggers to help them progress is actually very much needed, but why has it become a profession like this?"

"Not all food bloggers pursue this profession to make money; many do not justify any means. They operate in the right way, and those who fear God are usually reminded by their parents or family about the law of sowing and reaping."

"If there are problems, discuss them privately so as not to jeopardize the livelihoods of many people. In a business, those who struggle, who are in debt to banks, who have motorcycle payments, who owe loan sharks, then get reviewed. They pass away, and suddenly their lives are shattered."

"In fact, if given input, they still have time to improve. Who agrees with the suggestion of someone: Food Vloggers who want to review should be prohibited from entering, except for food bloggers who are willing to invest."
