Although Mukbang videos are no longer the hot trend they once were, they have maintained a certain appeal over the past year. Especially as YouTuber Mukbang creators strive to reinvent themselves and explore unusual themes. While this is a positive move, it also poses numerous dangers, particularly with distorted clips. A prime example is the case of the YouTuber below.

Recently, the online community was stirred when they witnessed a clip featuring a female YouTuber eating an unpeeled young pineapple, dipped in a bowl of thick red chili sauce. It’s important to emphasize that this was a whole pineapple with skin and hadn’t been processed beforehand, and everyone understands how tough and sharp pineapple skin can be. Nevertheless, the YouTuber disregarded all of this and created a Mukbang that left a lasting impression on viewers. She herself recognized the dangerous nature of what she was about to do and shared moments of concern with her audience. However, perhaps driven by views and engagement, she was determined to go through with it.


After a lengthy introduction, the YouTuber surprised everyone by bringing the whole pineapple to dip in the chili sauce and then eating it with gusto. Witnessing this segment, many viewers likely felt “cringed” for the protagonist. However, this YouTuber seemed to enjoy it very much.


While many believe that the skin of a young pineapple is softer than that of a ripe one, it still has a certain roughness. Eating it raw, as this YouTuber did, can easily cause throat injuries, posing health risks to herself. This is also why she is currently facing numerous criticisms.
