Can someone please explain food tubers to me?

I can understand watching recipes on youtube, and I can understand watching videos of talented chefs doing crazy things, but what exactly is the appeal of just watching someone eat food?

>Hey youtube, I'm in a Mexican restaurant in California and I'm gonna eat a taco!
>eats a taco
>"Mmmmmm! So delicious!"

>Hey youtube, I'm in Thailand and I'm going to eat some Thai food
>eats food
>"Mmmmm! So delicious!"
Is there something I'm missing? What's the appeal?

I find that tubers are pretty versatile.... boil them, mash them, they even work in stews

if you specifically mean ones that eat in restaurants across the globe it is life lived vicariously

if you mean people sharing recipes and how-tos then you're a dumb bebe

I kinda like Aden Films fly on the wall serial killer-esque videos where he just shows the preparation and no commentary. The sounds of the markets and restaurants are great on their own. Just wish he'd take some classes on film making. He's still very amateurish and like I said the videos can come off kinda.. creepy.
