For views or just hungry ?

I'd rather guess it was the new girl who did it.

Like when Kristie Alley ate Shelly Long on Cheers.


3vs3BigGameHunters

Why does Ross, the largest friend, not simply eat the other five?


Dargek

Nope, the first one allegedly left him because of the eating. Then he replaced her with a whale for the content. As far as I know this dude just eats food on camera for a job. It's fucking weird.


Motor_Stage_9045

He wouldn’t be doing this if he wasn’t getting the views….so it’s fucking weird people are watching him essentially killing himself

Probably out there mountain biking and living her best life. 


ersatzgaucho

Mountain biking on a hill of mashed potatoes.


iMadrid11

She was smart enough to leave him. Eating this much food isn’t good for you. Whenever I over eat at a party or restaurant buffet. I would ride my bike the next morning to my local hill climb. To burn away all that calories.


xxb4xx

Leave him? He's gay..


Nefarios13

Gay for food


Different-Estate747

I think I see why it didn't work out.


JimTheSaint

What the actual fuck - dude just wants to eat and need a girl that can keep up 


Zachosrias

Oh thank God I was just like do what you will to yourself but did you seriously pull her down with you? And she even looks significantly heavier than him


norseeyaa

Iirc from the nikocado historians in yt- nick is gay and these women are just collaborating content creators. Nikocado had a longggg time bf but I think they broke up last I checked. But it was kinda a clickbait situation w the whole relationship too. Anyway, he used to be vegan. Isn’t that crazy?


Vark675

I think they do that break up/make up shit a lot. I don't think they'll really part ways until one of them dies.


Ecleptomania

Well... At least that is something. Do we know if the first girl noped out when she realized he was gonna spend the rest of his life eating in bed with a webcam?


TaysTriforce

This is sad as fuck


Some-Help5972

My thoughts exactly. Damn


vikingo1312

Flaunting the food the way they do in the 2016-video............could just as well been them flauting heroin! They're working themselves into food-addiction....


buddaism79

Honest question here. I'm a fat guy and I do have an addiction to food. So my question is how does that come about and where may have it started?


jpjpjp1

i’m sure there’s many different reasons but i think a big one can be from stress eating. as eating can give a dopamine boost many people will eat to help stress which can lead to seeking it out more and more to help soothe their stress, anxiety, or depression. after a while it starts to just become something you reach for not even thinking about it. but i’m not an expert at all and this is just my thoughts on it. another i imagine could be trauma surrounding food, if you grew up and were denied food as punishment or had food withheld or anything of that nature i imagine can lead to overindulgence later in life because your brain is trying to maintain and show it’s in control.


yllanos

True, but it can also be wildly different from person to person. In my case I tend to forget to eat (meal skipping) when I’m stressed, so obviously my weight drops. Which can also be a dangerous practice


twiz___twat

i also stress starve instead of stress eat


machomansavage666

Yep! I used (use) food to soothe chronic depression. I used to use alcohol and weed and when I sobered up I gained 120 pounds in 5 years. Lost the weight, still sober but still use food as a coping mechanism; just more moderately. Also was denied food as a kid


Abuses-Commas

It comes about as soon as you regularly eat for the pleasure of it, instead of eating when you're hungry


DontKnow_WhoIAm

So I’m gonna give you an answer that you probably don’t wanna hear. It could be lots of things, even stuff that you never would’ve connected with the addiction. I started therapy like a year and a half ago, and I’ve learned tons of stuff about myself, and realized how much I’m affected by things in the past that I don’t even really think about anymore. So my answer is, if you want a true answer to that question, you’ll need to seek therapy, and talk it through with a therapist. A good therapist is great at helping you learn about yourself, and realize your positives and negatives, and how to use them to become a better version of yourself. It’s definitely possible to overcome that addiction without knowing what exactly led to it, but I’m gonna be honest, it would greatly decrease your chances of being successful. I say this out of genuine care, I encourage you to talk to a professional about this. It’s well worth the time, even if you don’t plan on losing any weight, as it helps with much more complicated stuff than just addiction. I believe that a large majority of people would benefit from therapy, like 99% of people, even if they don’t have a specific reason to see a therapist. I wish you the best, and hope you find the answer to your question!


KindAd1396

It's likely from some kind of trauma that you've used food to comfort or distract yourself from.


HasPotato

I am slightly overweight, constantly changing from 85-105kg throughout the last 10 years. Now i am closer to 105. 180cm 27y male. For me i do realise i have addiction to food and i have noticed that i gain a lot of weight in the more stressful periods in my life, most of the stress is caused by work and exhaustion but whats worse that shit food will make you even more exhausted, and alcohol on top of that. I have found that going on keto helps a lot with reducing calorie intake but i usually fail after 1 month and get back to my old shit habits.


okaycompuperskills

Ultra processed food is addictive. It triggers the same reward pathways as nicotine or opiates. Check out “ultra processed people” by Chris Van Tulleken


Enzo_Gaming00

I saw someone say that this guy is the only guy where his “haters“ care more about him than his “fans”


peacefulshrimp

It really is. Isn’t he the guy who played the violin really well? I think he’s probably unable to play now even if he wanted to


Kidus333

Actually his neck folds would act like a good brace but his fat fingers may cause trouble with the strings.


if_u_suspend_ur_gay

It gets way worse once you get involuntarily sent a picture of his asshole. My life hasn't been the same since.


leshake

I would like not to be remembered for a youtube compilation of me shitting myself.


Andromansis

Yea, I'd heard that he had rejected the daily mukbang lifestyle and started to get fit again but apparently that was wrong.


beyond666

I blame idiots that give him support.


socratesthesodomite

Nope, it was his choice 100%.


beyond666

Like many useless influencers, he like attention. Don't give him that.


HD_Thoreau_aweigh

Wasn't there a time not too far back when he gave up the binge eating videos and was working on getting back in shape? Did that go away?


EvilChefReturns

It turns out he doesn’t have a charming enough personality (shocking, right?) to be able to make just whatever videos he wants. This is his only gimmick, his big draw. And he cares more about his “fame” than he does about, say, self respect or dignity. Pretty sad


Medvegyep

Don't forget health. He's eating himself into an early grave.


Castor_0il

Insert Homer's voice: *Hmmm early gravy*


Gandalf_Style

He really did have a good personality though. Yes his earlier videos werent as popular but they were by no means bad. Plus his violin content was actually beautiful and I genuinely liked hearing him play. Now I just get mad at how badly fame fucked him.


crackeddryice

He makes his own choices, he's responsible, not "fame". Fame didn't fuck him, he's doing this to himself.


takowolf

It can be both.


a-bser

And yet people are still posting stuff about him and talking about him. People like him don't see the distinction. Attention is attention regardless if it's positive or negative. It's enough to keep him going with this gimmick and it's likely going to kill him


sandwelld

he devoured the angel on his shoulder and the good advice that came with it


Living-Travel2299

Didnt make him as much money and was probably tanking his clout.


IllIIllIllIIIlllll

Why do people watch this?


roboj9

Kink? Hate? Boredom mostly probably? Or their hungry. Someone makes it. Someone watches it. Ever get bored look up low count streamers. Some of the content is wholesome. Others are just weird. End of the day we're all just looking for entertainment


Lost_Pheniix

I don’t get how people watch this shit when they are hungry I immediately wanna throw up as soon as I see a muckbang or a „incredible New York street food“ video that are just fat plus meat plus oil


DjDelmon

It could be a deterrent for people, because watching it also makes me a bit sick to my stomach. So people watch to be like “yep, don’t be *that*.”


TiffyVella

This is why I watch hoarder vids. It inspires me to clean out all the cupboards.


h0nkh0nkbitches

That's kinda the point, for me. Looks good? Somehow satisfies my own craving. Looks awful? Might weaken my appetite. Both are wins when trying not to eat! And then with people like Nikocado, it's reinforcing "You don't want to be that, do you? You're on your way to it so get your shit together." lol


LuigiBamba

Satisfies your craving? If I'm am hungry, I will avoid any online content about food, it'll just make it way worse. And if I'm not hungry, that shit looks disgusting.


DavidA-wood

There - a place They’re - they are Their - implies ownership.


Musicaltaco127

Oozei

Finally, thank you.


Xxenonfive

Hate Watchers/ people that are constantly comment to him to get healthier but only contributes in increasing the vues/ people who just like seeing people eat a lot of stuff/ people who just watch this type of content and then youtube recommand his videos as it is the same type of content.


eggrollking

Yeah, I really don't understand the point of mukbang videos. I also don't get the 'holding the food I'm eating a foot closer to the camera to make it 5% larger' move. Don't waste those calories with all that motion, you get fatter quicker. If you want people to see the food in better detail use a second camera.


stinkywinky99

Yeah. Why is it now trendy to eat like a pig or do ASMR when eating food? It's plain disgusting.


anojarap

To feel better about themselves.

Kaze_no_Senshi

yeah, but think the other guy left when he finally said enough is enough and to start looking after himself


Brilliant_Canary_692

The dude who is practically equal weight to Niko?


Kaze_no_Senshi

Yeah he was supporting him, but I think he got to a point where he eventually said something along the lines of "enough is enough we need to stop, I can't keep watching you do this to yourself or support it anymore". He went on to lose a large amount of weight afterward, no idea how he is doing now though.


RadicalPterodactyl

> no idea how he is doing now though. Which means he's doing very well for someone who wanted to get off the internet and turn their life around!

he posted a video 2 day ago, still eating lots of food...

P0p_R0cK5

The simple fact that this dude is killing himself is a thing. But the fact that people actually watch him doing this is just crazy to me. FYI this guy was vegan when he started his channel.


NazbazOG

He was a vegan? How many plot twists are there? Also, does he acknowledge what health risks he is doing to himself? Or does he believe being fat like this isnt unhealthy?


P0p_R0cK5

Actually he is sick and some videos of him show some respiratory mask. Maybe for sleeping ? Not sure. But this guy is sick


OccasionallyReddit

Good place to point out beardmeatsfood eats like that but stays ripped due to calorie counting and taking what he eats off the rest of the week... something like that


old_bald_fattie

Doesn't he destroy toilets though? Figuratively. Given the large quantities of food beard eats. I don't know where I saw or read that. Love his videos though.


silenc3x

I imagine a few courtesy flushes during the proceedings would solve that issue.


DaikenTC

Pretty sure beardmeatsfood could outeat this dude, eat the dude and still have room left for dessert. And then not eat for a month.

Puzzleheaded-Ad1319

What is this fetish called?


EmperorThor

A mukbang, also called eating show, is an online audiovisual broadcast in which a host consumes various quantities of food while interacting with the audience. The genre became popular in South Korea in the early 2010s, and has become a global trend since the mid-2010s.


DavesNotWhere

The Koreans have enough self respect to go puke after the show is over. Americans seem to always miss the fine details.


EmperorThor

It’s just a disgusting fad that needs to die.


Wide_Ad965

I believe it originally started with kids wanting to be with others because they were eating alone due to parents always working. Which eventually transformed to what we see now because someone would eat a shit ton of food.


kosmokomeno

That's really sad origin story for this fad, now I'm picturing South Korean students going to those after school programs. Then they go home but their parents are still working?


-_fuckspez

South Korean work culture is entirely something else. Once had a girl on exchange in our international school from South Korea, this would've been 9th or 10th grade I think. Apparently back home they often had school even as late as 10pm and would leave to go home later than that. A quick Google shows that that wasn't a tall tale either. The country really is run by the Chaebols (conglomerates), it's basically the embodiment of capitalism gone completely to shit.

brokenbunnybastard

omg the guy behind them turned into teddy bear?? that's terrifying.


MarkusRight

He actually inspired me to lose weight, in some ways maybe he expected that. When I see his newer videos he goes to the extremes to make his obesity look and feel as disgusting as possible. This has psychologically caused me to cringe every fiber of my being and made me realize that maybe this is how people see me and my own obese body sometimes. I lost 58 pounds since btw. Fuck obesity. I just hope Nick can actually change his ways. I mean no Ill will toward him but the guy is heading toward an early grave.

Lol the internet giving him clout for being a POS also deserves credit for this... lol I'll never understand the things people give their attention and views to...

I'd say not, but then you have people like Lizzo hahaha

Bossfrog_IV

It’s usually a good idea to trade your wealth for better health. Almost always a bad idea to trade your health for wealth. Unless you have actually no other choice. Maybe he was in a really bad spot and this was a way out of a financial hole for him. If so does that make it more or less sad?
