ASMR Mukbang?

[shutterguy]

I feel so . Had to lookup what a Mukbang is. Peeps really watch a video of other people eating? ASMR mixed in too? .

Yeah.. and a lot of them have millions of followers. It started in Korea and then the US picked it up. One of the biggest you tubers is Zach Choi, he has almost 10 million subscribers.

Honestly, I don’t know, lol. I think people watch for a variety of reasons. I watch them when I’m on a diet and I want to eat certain foods but I can’t so I’ll watch other people eat them, lol. It sounds weird but it works.

I don’t get it either.

I’ll admit I have Misophonia to the point I’ll turn off a podcast or a YouTube even if it’s valuable info once someone starts audibly eating.

Ugh, an asmr one sounds gross as fukk.

Asian tuber culture is weird. It eventually migrated to America and its usually just another way for some entertainers to do a podcast, just with a lot of food.

Some people like Matt Stoney focus on just eating an insane amount of food under a certain time limit.

It's like an interactive and more entertaining food network.

Lol... everyone has their quirks. Most people I tell that to look at me like I’ve lost my mind

But I don’t watch the sloppy eaters that let food drip down their chin and stuff.. that’s just gross.

One of my favorites was Eat with Boki




She recently got in a lot of trouble in Korea for not letting her subscribers know about her paid sponsorships and they also accused her of spitting out her food.


It’s a big deal there, lol.

 

[ScottyG]

It started as a form of virtual companionship for ppl who were eating alone

 

[King Poetic]

This is what people doing with their free time

Fam, I can't tell you how many times I have told peeps to call me back when they get done eating cause I can't stand that sound in my ear and can't understand them.
