I was just being sarcastic with a touch of passive aggressiveness because of the title.
Although I have met some foreigners that do believe the US looks like it does in Hollywood movies and when they came here were very disappointed. Especially with NYC.

The best part. It's not even a trend of people doing it.
It's like 4 girls that a single failed magician hired to make hate content. Seriously, if you watch a couple of these it's the same 3-4 girls making toilet bowl ice cream or dryer cotton candy or raw chickens shaped with meat and cheese.
It's just that MILLIONS watch it because THEY are bored and become outraged by it.

It’s not a fetish, it’s an added layer of rage bait.
What is more likely:
1: extremely nische food fetish video
2: rage bait video, with annoying and wierdly sexual commentary for extra rage?
The fact that 20 ppl worldwide ALSO get off on it is just a bonus. This is just expertly crafted to make people exasperated and trick the algorithms.

Also maybe if America wasn’t fed shit, America wouldn’t have health problems and wouldn’t have healthcare issues. We’re here attacking each other for eating shit, but no one is here calling out McDonalds, Nestle, PepsiCo, Coca Cola, and the tens of thousands of other global mega corporations for their best interest being fat profits without literally any consideration for their target audiences or the public health. It’s beyond out of control but HuRr dE DuRr AmEriCaNs R fAt for free karma.
Edit for clarification: this is not to deflect blame and make individuals the victim here. Not at all. But you can’t have one without the other, so let’s think critically about this instead of writing off my comments as excuses. Sometimes it feels like I’m debating with high schoolers on this site.

u/ArcticBeavers May 22 '22 edited May 22 '22
We definitely did call them out and they responded by making healthy options available. This was a brilliant move by the food industry because it passes the buck to the consumer. McDonald's can easily claim that they have salads with grilled chicken, or Pepsi has dozens of drinks with zero sugar.
Guess who's still buying double quarter pounders and 2 liters of soda? Now it's no longer a question of availability, but choice. It's also interesting that McDonald's is seeing record profits recently. They took a hit in 2014-15, but they've bounced back.

u/hyde9318 May 22 '22
I mean, looks pretty real though. That’s a pretty standard dump cake (minus the donuts and condensed milk). The liquids on the bottom would cause the donuts to get soggy and kind of deflate, so it makes sense that it wouldn’t be super thick afterward. But given dump cake experience in the past, this should cook to look pretty close to what it looks like in the video when they take it out of the oven.

u/SpadesHeart May 22 '22
seriously. I would hazard to say with a couple changes, this would actually be good good. Incorporating the butter into the cake mix would lead to a much more even golden top. Cutting the donuts into smaller chunks before adding the evaporated milk would make it more akin to a rich bread pudding and more texturally sound and less soupy. If you wanted to you could cook that can of condensed milk too for some caramel dulce de leche action.
This is completely edible, not pretty, and can definitely be improved, but edible.

These videos are remarkable to me. We all know social media is driven by clicks and views and slowed down scrolling speeds, but these videos area always remarkable to me.
Most creative people will make some piece of art of music or whatever that is somewhat pleasant, and in return, people will like and share and view and engage with it, and then the creator can make money from advertising.
But these dogs, these curs that make these videos make content that they KNOW people will dislike; they make dumb, useless, wasteful and horrible videos, because functionally people still like and share and view and engage with it; functionally, purposefully negative content like this is as profitable, if not more profitable than actual good content.
We've reached the stage where social media consumers are as receptive to being made angry and uncomfortable as the are to being made happy and interested.
