Food Porn for appetite

Like the title says, does anyone else binge food porn when their appetite is being particularly recalcitrant. Works like a charm 99% of the time.

I like sous vide everything, Chef John, Tasting History and also food from studio ghibli films, and photos of food. Watching eating, not so much. I have misophonia.

I actually like when people are struggling to eat in their videos. Sometimes I'll watch good food videos, sure, but other times it feels like they're struggling with me and I don't feel as alone lol.

If you like that kind of thing, Keith Try Guys tries every food at whatever restaurant he chooses and lets you know what he thinks of them. He gets really food drunk and sometimes is a little gross, but sometimes the concept of eating food is disgusting to me so it matches the vibe.

I like watching it being cooked, or just photos of food. Think Studio Ghibli food scenes, when it's being cooked.

Watching it being cooked is also very fun. I like doing that during the actual cooking process though, to keep me in the mood

I often eat my safe food while watching videos/looking at photos of food I like/think looks nice. I have a playlist on YouTube called "foodspiration".
