if you haven't seen these yet- it's basically people eating (usually) large amounts of fattening food on their webcam and streaming it for other people to watch :lol:

i used to watch these all the time when i was on a waaay too strict diet (because i was miserable and had constant cravings lmao)

but yeah i wanna know people's thoughts on these haha. i don't watch them anymore but i can see the appeal if someone's not eating enough and needs to live through other people eating lol

    Never watched these but I know when I have cravings I'll tell myself "you're going on a trip with your boyfriend in two weeks, you can eat something *kitten* then" and for two weeks I'll plan our trip and constantly look at food lol

    I can't really relate to the pics above. The food is unfamiliar and the eaters are all rail thin. Show me some hefty folk eating corned beef sandwiches and a few cans of Spaghettios and a box or two of Ring Dings with a pitcher of Kool Aid and I'll maybe watch for 2 minutes or so. And then go eat.

    :joy::joy::joy:

    Now that's a Mukbang photo I can really dig.

    And is that Anna Nicole back in the day without makeup? Love it.

    I remember the first season of her reality show when she was languished on the couch, propped up on pillows enjoing a few bottles of Yoo Hoo and a large bag of Cheez Curls. She was so dainty about it, the crunching and the sipping. And then she told her young guests, "Eat up, I don't give a kitten." I mean, I always loved her before, but after that I was transfixed.

    Lol too funny. I'm also amazed at how well some can really "paint the barn" and make them self look like a completely different person.

    I follow a yt account for quangtran who basically cooks food from scratch and then eats it. The dude is super talented when he cooks, a lot of people comment on how he eats though haha
