mukbangs originated in south korea, for people to deal with the loneliness they felt. this is what happens when you take away the loneliness, and add some capitalism
@euryvices Exactly. I have very low appetite due to some health problems, but watching people eat often helps me feel hungry and actually have the drive to eat.
Nah the loneliness is still there, and the capitalism. It’s never a good idea to use unhealthy habits as a coping mechanism for loneliness. That’s how people get addicted to stuff like this whether that’s in Korea or America.
God, he's such a dorky little edgelord. He sounds like he finished a semester of a psych degree, decided he knew everything, dropped out, and then decided he was Heath Ledger's Joker.
The thing is junk food is addictive, not any food. If you don't have the habit of eating junk food it's easier to not get in the addiction. Anyway I really don't understand this stuff, even the least crazy...there must be a social study on this because this is very absurd and dangerous
i hate that people are calling him a genius bc of this ☠️ like?? his cringe villain monologue, the "social experiment" excuse? the fact that he shat himself on camera multiple times and traumatized stephanie soo ??? are people forgetting that? he is not a good person.
I’m still struggling with my ED (I‘ll feel bad for eating), and watching Mukbangs with people eating regular sizes helps me feel normal while eating too. Hearing the sentence at the end 'Food is not a punishment' made me tear up, I think I really had to hear that
I'm tired of people being assholes on the internet and then saying it was a "sOcIaL eXpErImEnT". Buddy the real social experiment here is seeing whether you have basic human empathy or not.
Dopamine vs serotonin. Consuming is dopamine, not serotonin. Had a WHOLE convo with my therapist about it this week. Lol. Dopamine is very short term gains easy to get addicted to that can worsen depression and other issues. Serotonin is long term joy and does not come from overdoing dopamine.
A great way to conceptualize it is dopamine is the motivation/desire brain chemical and serotonin is the happy chemical, they can be separate but they are usually linked because our brains like to be happy and are motivated to want that
It honestly annoyed me so much when he said it was all a social experiment and all the people commending him for fooling the internet. Like what do you mean it was a social experiment, you still did the things you did and got paid for it, he’s still one of the biggest catalysts that escalated mukbangs to what they are today. I don’t understand the point of his supposed “social experiment” but to me it just seems like he was always capable of controlling his actions and not hurting the people he’s hurt but just chose not to so he could come years later to say “SIKE now you’re all the idiots for talking about the things I did for attention”
Exactly. What the hell was he trying to prove? That people will laugh at someone who makes a scene on the internet? As if these self-humiliation publicity stunts havent been a thing since the dawn of humanity?
I'm thrilled that someone in his life finally got through to him and said 'hey, you are going to quite literally ruin your future, even more, if you keep up with this'. Sure he has gotten to a smaller body size, but the damage he did to his liver, heart, spleen, and immune system!?!?!! He has no clue what can be waiting for him around the corner in his 40s and 50s. I hope he made enough in order to cover all of his medical bills, because he's going to use majority of that, finding ways to stick around for as long as he can despite the damage he did to his body. Our gut is called our second brain for a reason; our immune system and nervous system are tied into what we eat. 😰
it’s not necessarily bc jellybean is a plus sized creator, it’s bc she was normally eating and then started eating similarly to niko. she was also caught making feeder content around the time her content changed.
Completely agree. People came out with receipts to basically prove she was doing the feeder content. Jellybean sweets wasn't plus-sized and still isn't. People are genuinely concerned about her and her health.
It’s also because how nick use to be vegan and then started eating meat, she similarly used to be vegetarian and then started eating meat again as content.
Hey, Salem. I understand that you don't personally believe Jellybean Sweets is doing anything harmful other than eating, but she has actually been proven to be working with feeders. These people pay to see someone consume something in a particularly messy manner, and in extreme excess. She is essentially in a fetish where people desire to feed someone so much food that they die. I think thats why her content is so controversial
I think a LOT of mukbang creators are producing feederism content. I have believed from the beginning that’s what Nik’s content was, and I think a lot of people have followed in his footsteps. I tend to think they know exactly what they’re doing, and it’s so strange to not see anyone calling this out. So thank you for being the one comment I’ve seen about it!
@@NKC228I don’t think he was just playing tho. Maybe playing it up. But I legit think there’s something. Doesn’t make it a pass. But I can’t imagine a well person behaving this way and harming Stephanie and others.
@@PacificallyYours Oh yeah I think he's weird af irl, what he did doesn't suddenly disappear just bc he said his online persona was for an experiment lol. I'm just saying how his personal was clearly fake and dramatic for attention and views
Guys don’t be scared of him, it’s literally all an act. If you keep watching the two steps ahead video it gets funnier and funnier 😂😂😂 I just can NOT take him serious
it’s actually so crazy how you can see someone eating like that on tiktok and within a couple of scrolls see another creator asking for donations so they can stop their family from starving to death. the world feels so beyond dystopian rn
Is it just me or is frying something in your car a dangerous idea? Imagine someone isn't paying attention and they clip your car. Even if the fryer is stable and doesn't move the oil will.
I used to be 240lbs, and super struggled w/ binge eating because it sparked those neurons to help stop the feelings I didnt wanna feel!! When I was binge eating I wasnt sad. I didnt have to think about the things that stressed me out. Im under 190 now, and doing so much better. I haven't binged in 4 years, I go to the gym and go outside more. I make healthier choices and just feel better overall.
I 100% know what you mean by that. I've had a binge eating disorder almost ever since I have memory, tbh. I was probably 14 yo when I started to develop worrying binge eating patterns. At times I've managed to keep that itch at bay more steadily and others it has gone out of control. When it goes out of control, it's exactly how you describe it. When you're eating those foods that trigger your itch, your brain numbs all the stress and worries that haunt you. Work, school, friends, family, life, self issues, etc. They are numbed. And it's difficult to break that pattern because the first steps are DIFFICULT. But if anyone struggling with this is reading my post, I promise it gets considerably easier the longer you stick with it. And a slow process will always be more sustainable and easier to maintain than pretending to fix all those issues in two months. It takes time, but it's so worth it.
6:16 thank you so much for saying this. I can’t believe no one I’ve seen is mentioning how cruel he was to Stephanie Soo. I vividly remember either in part one two she said Nikacado made her feel like she didn’t have the power to say no. And she then said she hadn’t felt like that since she was S A’ed. I also feel like the remakes he made later were an attack of Stephanie’s character.
The only time I've seen people mention Stephanie is when they're talking about his panda mask being a not-so-subtle dig at her husband because she respects him wanting privacy and uses a panda emoji or mask when he's on screen.
@@chibiusa4072 Exactly. He’s not good people. He was horrible to Stephanie and abusive to his partner. Idc if he’s some kind of evil genius in his mind, because the evil is much louder than the genius part.
Me too. But it’s not just that they’re gorging themselves, but that it’s so performative that it often feels like it’s going to fetish territory. And I never OPT to see these clips. They just somehow pop up in other videos, and I just feel so icky to see it, feeling as if I’ve been touched without my consent, like “MY EYES DONT WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN WHATEVER THIS IS!!! 😭”
And thats the thing thats so crazy because originally, mukbangs originated in Korea to make people feel less lonely as if they were eating together. And now its turned into... this
So the main issue with JellyBeanSweets is that what she does is "feeder" content. Kiki Chanel has a video on it and it really brings into light how dangerous it is.
The reason why mukbangers do all this is because they know people will watch for shock value. We have got to learn how to stop giving the wrong people any views, not write comments, not share their content. They can only go viral and make money off of it because of most people’s inability to just ignore absurd videos.
I say this because i love you and your content: please reconsider your sponsorship. I have seen a lot of people talk about this lately, and its very dangerous to inhale essential oils. Again no hate to you, cause maybe you didn't know, but please look into it❤
The issue folks have with JellybeanSweets is the alleged feeder content she was making. It got called out with receipts that she was taking "orders" to do alleged feeder content, and getting paid thru a wish list account as opposed to cash transactions. Once it got called out, she's backed off a bit on the gross over the top indulgence. She was chugging cups of sauces, putting time limits of how fast she ate giant quantities of food, etc. I also feel that people were genuinely concerned about her health, as she was making videos eating fast food hauls for every meal. But I do understand how you don't feel that she can be compared to Nickacado Avocado, i do agree. I think it is slightly inspired, though.
These types of Mukbangs scare me as someone who is trying to be healthier but has struggled with binge eating and using food as a coping mechanism for anxiety. Thank you for speaking on this topic with respect and empathy ❤
I don't watch mukbangs, & as it turns out, I can't watch videos _about_ mukbangs either. I made it thru the intro, & thought "Now MY cup runneth over," & I could not continue. I find them disgusting. I can't even hate-watch them. Still, a thumbs up & a comment for all of the watching of them that _you_ must have done in order to make this video!
Even when I was at my worst and binge eating like crazy, I could never watch these videos. It was like looking in the mirror, just so upsetting to be stuffing that much food into your body. Yikes
I believe the overconsumption started on TH-cam but became a Monster on TikTok. I deleted the app because everyone was trying to sell me something or begging me for money. I prefer long form content anyway!!!
@@wasabee8228the grifters on Instagram are getting so bad I swear every other post is someone trying to peddle a course or something like not everyone can earn 5k a week from peddling this crap
The issue many people had with jellybean sweets was how she seemed to be eating her food, it seemed weird. And it was found that she was making private eater content for people on instagram (if you get what I mean) then also posting the video on TikTok.
Its not even the fact that people are eating the food that makes my stomach churn, it just seems like a gigantic waste of food. It feels like the ultimate form of selfish content.
My biggest problem with nick is the waste of food AND the way he treated Stephanie. Straight up gross. Yeah he’s an evil genius. But he’s an absolutely horrible person.
@@reyennarhel2505 exactly, people are acting like this hasn’t been done before, that a TH-camr took a break and uploaded old content and came back a “different person”, it’s nothing revolutionary. He wasn’t “two steps ahead” or tricked anyone, it’s called deception and being fake. Just like a lot of these TH-camrs that do this, being fake for views, clickbaiting, nothing new here at all.
@@allisonovo Yeeep, and also, something only counts as a social experiment if it proves something. Nothing was proven here. We already know people like trainwrecks and that algorithms feed into that. There's nothing more to say.
jelly bean got exposed for engaging in feederism on her tiktoks because she gets money from people paying her to eat the way she does. there’s videos about it.
Tbh I saw someone say this and I agreed like ok it's impressive and nobody expected it, also he knew how to make money and clout by creating a character and doing rage bait but this so called experiment is like so ??? Like ok yea you did that but it affected you and no one else. He got all the damage, his body and his reputation bc negative attention is still negative. Idk what his like I'm two steps ahead stuff is but it's so unclimactic and unprovoked.
Mukbangs originated in South Korea for lonely people to share a meal… when I was single, I used to watch normal ones… average people eating normal amounts of food.. that’s what it’s supposed to be…
The piece about overconsumption definitely hit a nerve with me. As a recovered functioning alcoholic, when I stopped drinking, I felt great for awhile. But then when I started to get depressed again, I started to fill my body with empty calories. When I had a meltdown, I pivoted to obsessively working out until I was severely underweight. My now husband encouraged me to get therapy. Once I found a great therapist, I realized that in my overconsumption, I was trying to drown out the pain of multiple past traumatic events. During the time I spent (three years)with my phenomenal therapist, I unpacked a LOT, mainly that I can’t out run, out drink or out eat my problems. I adopted healthy habits, and was good for awhile, but after I lost my therapists, I tried to cope as best as I could with love notes to myself, affirmations, resting myself, crying and purging when I need to, and treating myself. It wasn’t until this video that I realized, I have more Bath and Body Works lotions and fragrances than the actual store. Not quite back at square one, but $hit, is it humbling ❤
No, because JellybeanSweets was making feeder content. Her wishlist was a bunch of lingerie and DMs were leaked between someone who agreed to pay her for a speciric video (and her agreeing and doing said video). It isnt "just a girl who enjoys fast food."
The fact that mukbangs started with normal people eating normal food to keep viewers company while they were eating their food, cut to now the "face" of mukbangs is this creep stuffing his face with all the food he can find.. I'm quite sad about it.
So does anyone here remember EpicMealTime? If you've been on here since the good old days, you might remember them.. To me the foods in these mukbangs resemble foods those guys used to make. Gotta love it when America "appropriates" content with a little sprinkle of ~capitalism~ . Hopefully mukbangers will stop (doubt it) , since the content was originally meant for lonely people.
Food is such a difficult topic tbh... You can starve yourself to death, you can also kill yourself by overeating. Just like you said, it's hard to admit to oneself to have eating problems - especially if it's overeating, because food is necessary to live. If you go to food for comfort you usually don't see a problem with it until you get mentally better, or notice your body changing. It's one thing to enjoy your food and eat as much as you want, and another to force yourself to finish ungodly amounts of junk to feel better
🦆 I had to listen through most of this, because the visuals made me want to vomit my dinner. I get that people enjoy consuming mukbang content (pun intended), but just seeing that amount of excess triggered something within me. I agree with what you said about the damage already being done “social experiment” or not. I pray for healing for everyone. And trust me, this is coming from someone that eats their feelings at times.
There are only a handful of American mukbangers that I watch (ASMR Phan, ASMR Bro) because American mukbangers have a tendency to just be unnecessarily gross. The girl wasting all that damn ranch for no reason at all and Tiktok are the main reason I prefer foreign mukbangers. It just annoys me to see sloppy wasteful eating.
The social experiment angle makes him sound like the 2016 TH-cam pranksters trying to weasel their way out of having to take responsibility for their bad behaviour. 🦆
Im SO GLAD you brought up the double standard thing, most people who do these kinds of videos dont even mention this and just have a really sensasionalist take on things. Really refreshing to see someone adressing all of the points that ticked me off
Consumption is like one of 4 or 5 false idols that is causing our entire society and cultures to unravel. This is a good essay, it is broader than the title and thumbnail suggested. That's kind of rare on here. Personally the only thing I want to consume is substance. 10/10 essay.
What I can’t get behind is endorsing huffing of any kind of substance? I at least expected a “if you are addicted to your vape, this can be a healthier alternative” but no? Like what?

Even when I was at my worst and binge eating like crazy, I could never watch these videos. It was like looking in the mirror, just so upsetting to be stuffing that much food into your body. Yikes
@@blkcat-art I have switched to listening to this video like a podcast.
Omg same. It’s so gross
I WAS WONDERING IF YOUD POST A VIDEO ABOUT THIS!!
🦆!!
He literally picked up an ozempic from a local pharmacy when he was in Palm Springs earlier this year ☠️
I believe the overconsumption started on TH-cam but became a Monster on TikTok. I deleted the app because everyone was trying to sell me something or begging me for money. I prefer long form content anyway!!!
Don’t forget instagram 😂
@@wasabee8228the grifters on Instagram are getting so bad I swear every other post is someone trying to peddle a course or something like not everyone can earn 5k a week from peddling this crap
The issue many people had with jellybean sweets was how she seemed to be eating her food, it seemed weird. And it was found that she was making private eater content for people on instagram (if you get what I mean) then also posting the video on TikTok.
I don’t get what you mean
@@Maksim-rv1qb She was making feeder content and posting it on TikTok
I can't watch Mukbangs. I hate the sound of people eating and feel like I'm choking with the amount of food they swallow.
Same here. Totally grossed out.
The sad part is that didn't mukbangs started in Korea as a way for lonely people to not feell so alone?
Yes that was the origin.
the origin of it was such a cute and sweet idea, but what it turned into is quite the opposite, quite disgusting. 😔😔
Bruh I’m sorry but the OCD joke still makes me cackle. 😂
same
I honestly think he just called it a "social experiment" just to excuse all the horrible things he did. That man is unhinged.
Omfg when you did your lil Mariah Carrey impression my puppy was playing and stopped dead in her tracks and looked at me like wtf was that mom!? 😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly, I don't see how they aren't almost getting sick in these videos ??? This is out of hand, hopefully this will change, wonderful video Salem !
I can't eat fried food for some reason, it makes me sick. So watching people gorge themselves on this food makes me feel physically ill
Its not even the fact that people are eating the food that makes my stomach churn, it just seems like a gigantic waste of food. It feels like the ultimate form of selfish content.
It's giving *medieval nobles* wasting food because they can😂
I love that you mentioned Light Yagami!! That was all I could think when I saw his Two Steps Ahead video. 😂
My biggest problem with nick is the waste of food AND the way he treated Stephanie. Straight up gross. Yeah he’s an evil genius. But he’s an absolutely horrible person.
Filming videos in advance and staying out of the public eye for two years isn't genius, it's just planning. He's no genius, he's just an asshole.
@@reyennarhel2505 exactly, people are acting like this hasn’t been done before, that a TH-camr took a break and uploaded old content and came back a “different person”, it’s nothing revolutionary. He wasn’t “two steps ahead” or tricked anyone, it’s called deception and being fake. Just like a lot of these TH-camrs that do this, being fake for views, clickbaiting, nothing new here at all.
@@allisonovo Yeeep, and also, something only counts as a social experiment if it proves something. Nothing was proven here. We already know people like trainwrecks and that algorithms feed into that. There's nothing more to say.
The Krabby Patty bit 💀💀 I was cackling in the laundromat parking lot girl.
3:43 Bro I thought the SHEIN chicken was just a meme from TikTok?!
i wish it was cuz wtf even is that
@@itzz_mikaelaaxx I dunno. Maybe crabs? 🤷🏾♀️
@@silent_dreamer_ either way it shouldn't have ever existed on this planet
@@silent_dreamer_the person eating that is probably carrying a new virus
I remember waaaaaay back when he was a thin vegan dude (when Freelee the Banana girl was super popular). He was weird as hell back then too.
People that can eat mukbangs in their car are a whole other kind of person.
Like gorl are you not stressed?!
1:29 that was beautiful Salem omg
I know this video is really serious, but all that was going through my head was
"you mean OBCD!"
Nikocado's monologue was pretentious 😀
he's not a villain, just a creep.
NAH that last clip in the intro with the girl pouring ranch on the SAME spot pissed me off 😭
jelly bean got exposed for engaging in feederism on her tiktoks because she gets money from people paying her to eat the way she does. there’s videos about it.
I’m SO glad you made a video on this 😭
Tbh I saw someone say this and I agreed like ok it's impressive and nobody expected it, also he knew how to make money and clout by creating a character and doing rage bait but this so called experiment is like so ??? Like ok yea you did that but it affected you and no one else. He got all the damage, his body and his reputation bc negative attention is still negative. Idk what his like I'm two steps ahead stuff is but it's so unclimactic and unprovoked.
Mukbangs originated in South Korea for lonely people to share a meal… when I was single, I used to watch normal ones… average people eating normal amounts of food.. that’s what it’s supposed to be…
1:03 WTF is this girl doing? I genuinely don't understand how these people are ok with just wasting food.
Totally off topic, but Salem you look so good! You ate so hard with this look.
WAKE UP SALEM’S POSTING AGAIN
wake UPPPPP
@@_salemtovar_ I'M AWAKE!
The piece about overconsumption definitely hit a nerve with me. As a recovered functioning alcoholic, when I stopped drinking, I felt great for awhile. But then when I started to get depressed again, I started to fill my body with empty calories. When I had a meltdown, I pivoted to obsessively working out until I was severely underweight. My now husband encouraged me to get therapy. Once I found a great therapist, I realized that in my overconsumption, I was trying to drown out the pain of multiple past traumatic events. During the time I spent (three years)with my phenomenal therapist, I unpacked a LOT, mainly that I can’t out run, out drink or out eat my problems. I adopted healthy habits, and was good for awhile, but after I lost my therapists, I tried to cope as best as I could with love notes to myself, affirmations, resting myself, crying and purging when I need to, and treating myself.
It wasn’t until this video that I realized, I have more Bath and Body Works lotions and fragrances than the actual store. Not quite back at square one, but $hit, is it humbling ❤
No, because JellybeanSweets was making feeder content. Her wishlist was a bunch of lingerie and DMs were leaked between someone who agreed to pay her for a speciric video (and her agreeing and doing said video). It isnt "just a girl who enjoys fast food."
The fact that mukbangs started with normal people eating normal food to keep viewers company while they were eating their food, cut to now the "face" of mukbangs is this creep stuffing his face with all the food he can find.. I'm quite sad about it.
So does anyone here remember EpicMealTime? If you've been on here since the good old days, you might remember them.. To me the foods in these mukbangs resemble foods those guys used to make.
Gotta love it when America "appropriates" content with a little sprinkle of ~capitalism~ . Hopefully mukbangers will stop (doubt it) , since the content was originally meant for lonely people.
Yes!! Making huge lasagnas out of layering pizzas and burgers! Not thought about that in at least a decade thank you for the memory 🥹
What a good time to get off work 🥰🥰🥰
Food is such a difficult topic tbh... You can starve yourself to death, you can also kill yourself by overeating.
Just like you said, it's hard to admit to oneself to have eating problems - especially if it's overeating, because food is necessary to live. If you go to food for comfort you usually don't see a problem with it until you get mentally better, or notice your body changing.
It's one thing to enjoy your food and eat as much as you want, and another to force yourself to finish ungodly amounts of junk to feel better
🦆 I had to listen through most of this, because the visuals made me want to vomit my dinner. I get that people enjoy consuming mukbang content (pun intended), but just seeing that amount of excess triggered something within me. I agree with what you said about the damage already being done “social experiment” or not. I pray for healing for everyone. And trust me, this is coming from someone that eats their feelings at times.
I’ve been watching you since 2020 and can I just say you are GLOWING girl, you look amazing & you sound happy
The Trixie Mattel joke has me rolling
There are only a handful of American mukbangers that I watch (ASMR Phan, ASMR Bro) because American mukbangers have a tendency to just be unnecessarily gross. The girl wasting all that damn ranch for no reason at all and Tiktok are the main reason I prefer foreign mukbangers. It just annoys me to see sloppy wasteful eating.
The social experiment angle makes him sound like the 2016 TH-cam pranksters trying to weasel their way out of having to take responsibility for their bad behaviour. 🦆
AAH SALEM IS SO BACK!!
When you said pause I sat there for a minute and then realised my phone actually paused. Anyways love the vids and ur so pretty ✨️💅🏻
Omg the whistle tones and the “that was good” in the beginning had me deaddddd 🤣🤣🤣
Girl your editing is so good! I’m crying
6:09 perioddd!! Say it for the people in the back
“That's Trixie Mattel” 😭😭
I agree with most everything you said but i heard that the "mukbanger dying on live stream" story was fake
Omg those whistle notes at the beginning were giving the most, you ate that and left no crumbs sis.😌🎶✨
1:08 Ladies and gentlemen, what the hell is that thing in her hand? 🤯😱😰 Is it some kind of food or what? It's giving me goosebumps...
@@PlacebkaValo it's chicharron (fried pork skin) but idk what she's doing with all that ranch on it🤢
omg the makeup, the hair, the nails, salem you’re glowing 🤧✨!!
As someone with an eating disorder these people DONT help
Im SO GLAD you brought up the double standard thing, most people who do these kinds of videos dont even mention this and just have a really sensasionalist take on things. Really refreshing to see someone adressing all of the points that ticked me off
so ready for this video!! love you girl🫶🏼🦆
Consumption is like one of 4 or 5 false idols that is causing our entire society and cultures to unravel. This is a good essay, it is broader than the title and thumbnail suggested. That's kind of rare on here. Personally the only thing I want to consume is substance. 10/10 essay.
“girl…that’s trixie mattel” 😂😂 i died bc i kept thinking he looks like someone…Salem read my mind 😂😂😂
EARLYY!! Thank you so much for all your videos, I was waiting for you to talk about this :3
oh god, thanks for taking a non fatphobic aproach to this!
Loving that u are back!
NO WAY I JUST RAN OUT OF CONTENT TO WATCH 😻
Love you Salem !!!!❤❤❤ Been following the channel for soooo long 🥹 saw u change so much !
You’re literally so pretty
Thank you for returning when we need you most!!
I kneeeew you’d make a video about him after your first one
🦆 great to see you're back, loved the krabby patty painting
🦆 favorite food is italian and im SO grateful you've blessed us with content this week, thank you 🖤💖
I love how you talk about important issues with multiple communities ❤
The way she slayed that high note at the beginning
What I can’t get behind is endorsing huffing of any kind of substance? I at least expected a “if you are addicted to your vape, this can be a healthier alternative” but no? Like what?
0:08 oh, that's Trixie Mattel!
5:00 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
