Haven’t watched The Menu yet, I’ll definitely check it out. Seems right up my alley.
I think the issue with YouTubers is that at some point, you’ll run out of ‘actual’ recipes. The algorithm needs to be fed every week or every few days by uploading a video that people will click on and watch long enough. After you’ve made all of the traditional dishes, you’ll have to look for something else interesting. The point you make about it being just entertainment I haven’t thought of before but I think it is very true.
What helped bring me back to earth a bit is realizing all of these big chefs or names in the retaurant world eat just like I do. A simple burger is good enough. Grilled cheese late at night. Dried pasta is perfectly fine, maybe even better than fresh. Watching Anthony Bourdain and Kenji Lopez-Alt, for example, really changed my perspective.
