what in the fuck
>>343241079
Is it like /ck/ but with live video?
>>343241174
why would anyone want to watch someone do this
Probably some ASMR bullshit or a classification for "I'm about to start playing some games but first I have to eat this entire pizza"
>>343241401
people are dedicating whole streams to eating
>>343241479
Then I'm going with ASMR bullshit or the facecam/friend simulator concept taken to its natural conclusion
I streamed on this shot today. Got 45 viewers just watching me eat popcorn. Got $5 bucks bb
>>343241079
yeah that's weird. I've heard koreans do it but I guess it made its way to america.
The millennial generation is doomed.
>>343242542
koreans use twitch too...
>>343241079

>>343241079

>hey guys look at what's happening on twitch
>>343243235
Just because it is a thing doesn't make it less fucking stupid. I hate my people. This is decadency taken to its extreme.

this shit gets me hard
OH BOY I LOVE WATCHING PEOPLE EAT! THANKS TWITCH!
I feel as if this is some sort of fetish
muk-bang comes to the west I see
I'm eating chicken nuggets.
Would anybody watch?
>>343243984
yeah mang link
As a Korean, I know why Mukbang is so popular in Korea and why they love watching somebody eating foods. Because they temporarily forget sufferings of life. Because the desire for food is the most powerful thing that can give humans pleasure. So, they could forget some mental sufferings for some time. It's not shocking that South Korea has recorded the world's highest suicide rate. They need some substitutions for mental sufferings.

It's like those food shows on travel channel. But without getting to see the culture of a different country and all the factoids that go with it.
So actually I'm not sure what the big attraction is
>>343244679
a factoid by definition is not actually true
factoid means a little nugget of information that seems true but actually is false
>>343241079
Its a Korean thing
>>343244218
thanks bb
they're getting that Korean DOSH son
>>343244206
isn't it also the east asian obsession with thinness + south korean vanity + modern western trashy food culture?
like the ideal person is a thin attractive korean woman who can eat 12 hamburgers without gaining weight. she gets to participate in eating poorly while maintaining herself. so you have two choices: eat bad food and get fat, OR, eat healthy / nothing and vicariously enjoy the hamburger through the pretty girl who never gains weight
girlfriend simulator INC
oh and we can also watch an obese guy eat an entire box of pizza rolls
If you were a good looking girl, you could eat chicken nuggets in front of a webcam and make money.
But you weren't born that way, so you actually have to work for a living.
>>343244491
This.
>>343245682
as I've understood it that's also a major part of it
also I think in the culture they greatly enjoy when a person can 'eat well'
>>343243235
>a young woman named Park Seo Yeon, nicknamed “The Diva” is known for feasting on extra-large plates of rich fare every night, from whipped-cream-covered cakes to fried chicken.
Kek strikes again

>some people pay to watch people eat
