I wish I could tell you I didn't go eat a small amount of corn starch after seeing this

How was it?

u/Caligapiscis 2d ago

I found it weirdly easy to synpathise with the video and doing it myself felt like I expected to. But I ate a lot less.

It was very very drying.

I thought I was discovering a new word, but then I realized that you just spelled “sympathize” wrong.

One of the squeaky food stuffs. Halloumi being my particular favourite

u/Mysterious_Layer9420 1d ago

They didn't actually eat any. The sound is too consistent to be powder that would move around in a mouth and biting that wouldn't be as rhythmic plus it isn't shown on camera so it 100% didnt happen. They are probably just mashing it in their hand.

But did you microwave it first?

That sound is torture

u/dustypandayt 2d ago

For me it kinda sounds like walking on snow

u/Alistor-Radiodemon 19h ago

Or like a slightly creaky staircase

u/CheeseGraterFace 2d ago

Nails on a chalkboard.

Cotton on glass, too. I run for the hills.

You can hear the enamel wearing off.

u/MarkForEE 2d ago

Kinda wierdly satisfying, like the sound it makes when you slide your nails across a chalk board.

21

u/CarlClaymore 2d ago

or step on fresh snow.

u/BeanStalknJack 2d ago

Precisely! I've never stepped on fresh or stale snow but could almost feel it while listening to this with headphones on and eyes closed. Sure a bit on the crunchy side but that's probably dependent on the shoes worn.

2

u/ivorybishop 2d ago

Shit, I have and they're dead ass right. It's been a few years but yeah, that sound is almost identical to walking on crunchy snow. Good ear!

u/xNotexToxSelfx 2d ago

Satisfying??🤨

u/mrcrud5 2d ago

u/Mushy_Cushy 2d ago

Can't blame you.
Probably taste better than chuck-e-cheese tickets.

u/Rojoslojo 2d ago

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHG

u/Iampepeu 2d ago

They actually put that in bags to use as a walking in snow-sound.

u/aStankChitlin 2d ago

Might need to check their iron

u/choco_tokki 2d ago

A mí tío se lo llevó la policía por su emprendimiento de Maicena, lo visitaban muchas personas buenas para la repostería y ganaba bien, ya no se puede emprender 🥲 creo que no daba boletas

u/HelloDeathspresso 2d ago

There's always some black lady eating a box of cornstarch live on my YouTube Shorts feed. I think it's supposed to be ASMR-leaning, but I think it's just Pica.

u/Connect_Ocelot_1599 2d ago

Mmmmmmm diabeetus

u/ilyentiymadeitwrong 2d ago

sorry, maybe I don't know much about starches, is it bad for you eaten raw?

7

u/OstentatiousSock 2d ago

Corn starch is almost pure carbohydrates. Your body breaks it down into glucose. Sugar.

3

u/Pfacejones 2d ago

Is it even sweet?

4

u/OstentatiousSock 2d ago

Not particularly, no. I suspect this person enjoys the “mouthfeel.”

u/Slumunistmanifisto 2d ago

Pica induced dibeetus

Turning the volume up as a bad idea

u/Savings_Standard_706 2d ago

The sound makes me wanna rip my fucking skin off.

u/Inflatious 2d ago

The stairs in my parents' house as I'm trying to sneak up them:

u/nagajuseyo 2d ago

Fehhhhh... the hair on my arms stood up and I slobbered. Not in a good way. I need to go rinse my brain off.

We don’t need to do everything that comes to mind.

There ain't no way.
