What the fuck is the fascination with this guy eating himself to death? Who watches it? Why do they watch it? He seems popular enough to be a pretty damn big YouTuber. But it seems really…gross and upsetting.

You ever heard that phrase that it's hard to look away from a trainwreck?

It isn't even just him. Mukbangs or however they're spelled are huge on social media. I don't get it, I love food and watch street food videos often as background but I don't understand wanting to watch someone else eat insane amounts of food. At least with street food videos you're only watching as someone prepares some good looking food, and for me, I use it to get new recipes or ideas for stuff to cook.
