You really do offer a lot of fun and interesting tales of your adventures that have nothing to do with any problems you may be experiencing. I apologize if you took it that way, buddy. L loves to watch Tagalog "dramas" or the Kardashians... I actually do watch some of the food shows and take notes for some things that I believe I can create for our future cafe or just to enjoy... But I am so tired of the formula "reality" TV... Don’t need to apologise you said nothing wrong at all, and I am happy if I can give someone a smile and also a tut sometimes . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tukaram (Tim) Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 The mukbang (pronounced "mook-bong")videos started in Korea. I never understood the appeal but they seem to be popular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts when I read your posts Steve are......... been there wore the T-shirt, Your popularity Steve shows that people can relate to your everyday comments, I would rather read your threads than watch the muck on TV........... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poverty on the one hand and gluttony on the other, used for so called intertainment. Sorry folks, just how I feel about it. Pretty sure it started in Korea, but I don't have proof. They seem to have been pioneers of the whole posting pictures of food craze, which really took off in China. 5 years ago when I would visit there on business, just couldn't believe the amount of selfies and food pics people would post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was directed to one which was a guy eating everything off the Wotherspoon (UK pub chain) menu. Just cannot see how anyone would do this, less still watch someone doing it.

Has anyone truly decided to change the way they cook by watching these programs? The food looks good yes. Would I go through the trouble to cook it like they do? HELL NO. Just something to watch. I'd rather have Spam Tapsi! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Peterson Posted January 23, 2020 Posted January 23, 2020 No Internet then but on TV in the late 50's and early 60's + we had our UK TV Cooks, One couple in Particular was Fanny Cradock and her Husband John, Household names then for Recipes. anyone Remember them. Gordon Ramsay was a Football apprentice then I would guess 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
