Hey guys! In today’s video, I decided to do a deep dive into the interesting world of mukbang content. I discuss the origins of modern food content we see today and how that affects social media. I analyze and make parallels to shows such as Man vs Food and content such as Julia eats everything on delish. I also talk about why people find this content appealing and how it became as popular as it has in recent years. lastly, I highlight some mukbang channels that I personally believe are ruining the wholesome content.
