>>16602060

Apparently he was a huge dick to be around, and was drunk through most episodes

>>16602060
will u ethnics please get in the background of my organic photo pls

>>16602060
>ITT: Overrated celebrity chefs
He was barely a chef. He was a writer, primarily.

>>16602236
>Apparently he was a huge dick to be around, and was drunk through most episodes
Untrue. Quite the opposite.

>>16602236
Like your mom.

>>16602262
Dude. He was a fucking drug addict. Literally insufferable people.

>>16602060
Was he even a chef? Thought he was just a alcoholic depressed socialist.

>>16602356
>He was a fucking drug addict.

>was

you didn't even know him, incel

>>16602356
If you drink coffee or alcohol on a regular basis you are literally a drug addict too anon.

>>16602515
>If you drink coffee or alcohol on a regular basis you are literally a drug addict too anon.
yeah but not really. Barely the same thing. Nice try though

>>16602060
The complete list of celebrity chefs that aren't overrated:

>>16602528
>my drugs are okay because I do them but other drugs are bad because I don't do them

>>16602530
will smith

>>16602533
they are technically "like drugs" but they're nothing alike in the end of the day. Don't get people that think they're savvy by saying "sugar and coffee is a drug too lol"

>>16602528
copium
>i can stop anytime!
he actually did stop tho
what a chad

>>16602540
They literally are though. Caffeine and sugar addictions are the most prevalent o earth and some of the hardest to kick.

Could he actually cook or was he just a tv celebrity larping as a chef?

>>16602606
>Caffeine and sugar addictions are the most prevalent o earth
Because it's relatively harmless compared with actual drugs and nobody gives a shit if you consume them. Again, they are "addictive" but they are not "drugs" in the traditional sense

>>16602060
OP do you have a list of shitty meme threads and you just cycle through them and post periodically?

>>16602606
>>16602635
Also how do you even measure "sugar addiction?" Almost everyone on earth eats sugar and it's hard to properly survey something like that. Sounds like some half-assed sensationalist study for the news for me. Also most people are forced to drink caffeine because they wake up early for work and are tired. Being forced to drink caffeine isn't really an addiction in my opinion.

>>16602654
>guys it's not my fault I'm addicted, I'm LITERALLY forced to take a stimulant every day by society because I don't take care of my sleep routine properly

lmao

>>16602610
>Could he actually cook or was he just a tv celebrity larping as a chef?
Yes, he could really cook. He grew up silver spoon with highly educated parents, attended ivy league education himself. He idolized musicians, bohemians, edgy new york punk rock area scene and did some stupid things, but a lot of people did the same in his circule at that time in history. If you went to clubs, you saw it everywhere, it was the era of miami vice before it was cracktime in the world.

He was an intellectual and was too smart to be in food service. His career was not launched as a chef, but as an author first. He just worked for someone kind who let him go on sabbatical until it lasted forever.

Bourdain was fantastic in person, says literally everyone who spent time with him. The people who hated him were mocked by him, typically in social media or within his show, vegans, hacks, rachel ray, conservatives, and the list goes on and on. But, in person he was pretty generously thoughtful to people he was showing on the show. Exception, he didn't like Iceland, like wtf funk happened to his brain in the dark of winter near the Arctic circle.

>>16602654
If you are a fatty because you can't stop gorging yourself on fastfood and junkfood you have a sugar addiction.

>>16602665
well it's not an addiction

>>16602671
okay, I'm just saying the sensationalist "sugar addiction epidemic" headlines are hard to back up/substatiate

>>16602635
>Relatively harmless
Apart from obesity, heart problems, diabetes, being more prone to hear exhaustion, etc.

>>16602666
>vassar
>Ivy League
Ohnonononono

>>16602356
Druggies are chill as fuck.
I briefly met Bourdain, he seemed like a timid on edge teenager waiting to tell a story.

>>16602753
everything is okay in moderation, something you can't do with actual drugs. Also it's not that bad compared with actual drugs. You can still live many years with obesity unlike drugs

>>16602777
>you can't do actually drugs in moderation

Yes you can if you have impulse control.

>>16602786
But is it easier to do drugs in moderation, or eat sugar in moderation? My point is that saying sugar is 1 to 1 equal to any other drug is sensationalist and false

>>16602796
Saying any drug is 1 to 1 equal to any other drug is false

>>16602807
okay let's rephrase because I was too specific for my own good:

Saying sugar is just as addictive and unhealthy as other "traditional" drugs is sensationalist and false coping

>>16602812
>my drug isn't a drug cuz I say so and admitting so would hurt my ego!!!1

>>16602812
I dunno anon, seems like beetus and obesity are kind of a problem

>>16602796
Well let's look at the facts, how many obese fuckers are currently running around vs drug addicts?

>>16602824
those are only extreme cases where you eat a ton of sugar for many years, and it's not the average for sugar eaters (basically most of population). Worse effects can be easily had with actual drugs.

TL;DR Shit health is the average for drug takers, not sugar consumers.

>>16602823
What drugs do you take that you have to cope this much?

>>16602528
>alcohol isn't a drug

>>16602830
1. Sugar is only part of the diet. Little did we know that people get fat primarily from carbs and fats

2. It takes many years of dedication to get very unhealthy from sugar consumption. It's way more forgiving and less addicting than actual drugs. They are nothing alike.

3. Drug addicts die early, so that statistics are going to be unfair for sure. I think it's called "survivorship bias"

>>16602851
Alcohol is addicting and unhealthy in large amounts. I'm just arguing against drug takers that cope by saying that eating sugar and drinking alcohol is just as bad as taking drugs. It's easily not.

>>16602768
So, a gigantic fag

>>16602876
Alcohol is literally worse for you than smoking weed.

>>16602666
guy fieri is the true culinary icon. bourdain was a drugged out cuck

>>16602859
Obese people die early. Also, it really doesn't take long to become obese from sugar, which is a carb, which is the primary problem people have with food addiction. You see it in those "coffee" milkshakes, breads, dips, you name it. Sugar makes everything much more addictive. More so than fat and salt, but combine all three and it's unstoppable. I watched my vegetarian friend balloon up to 200+ lbs in about 3 to 5 years since all she ate was carbs and fat and has tried quitting the shit but can't.

>>16602841
>What drugs do you take that you have to cope this much?
I don't do any drugs because I'm not a sick cretin

>>16602914
Okay I was waiting for someone to mention weed. I do not consider weed to be a traditional "drug." I am talking about harder drugs.

There are still controversy about the health impacts of weed (most current debate is on the neurological impact of regular marijuana use), but so far besides that one study on testicular cancer I do not see much significant negative physical impacts on weed. Carry on.

>>16602931
I do not disagree with anything you said. Sugar is a drug. I'm just saying it's not as bad as harder drugs.

>>16602936
good for you then

>>16602954
I would argue it's just as bad, if not worse because it's disregarded like what you're doing, which has led to multiple nations with a gigantic portion of it's citizens being obese and ultimately in need of care

>>16602666
good bait

>>16602964
1 to 1, sugar is not as bad as drug use. People have to eat a shit ton of sugar for years to get very unhealthy. However, if we ignore the health issues and everyone eats a shit ton of sugar (e.g. serious obesity becomes the average among sugar consumers), then yes sugar is just as bad as drugs.

Feels like we're splitting hairs now.

>>16602886
Pretty much, but not a douche...

>>16602060
Thank you, chef. (everyone say this)

>>16603000
But it's already like that in multiple countries. The us is over 35%? Adult obesity rates. UK is up there, mexico, parts of the middle east, Germany, the list could go on...

>>16603022
So my point of contention was that 1-to-1, an average sugar eater is better off than an average drug user. I am looking at micro level

Meanwhile, you're more looking at a macro-level collective: the sugar-led obesity epidemic globally is negatively impacting humanity more than harder drugs.

We're talking about different things, and both are generally true.

>>16603037
Fair

>>16603038
okay have a nice day

>>16603000
Sugar, and by extension, obesity, is literally the number one killer in the united states.

>>16603045
Thanks I'm going to bed. You too buddy

>>16603037
Oh so you were just being pedantic

>>16603061
yeah we're splitting hairs

>>16602375
What's the difference?

I'm both of those things.

>>16602356
Are you some kind of youth counsellor?

>>16602635
>Relatively harmless

They directly contribute to the single most common cause of death in the world.

>>16602060
They all are overrated. Even the good ones with great technical skills are still just chefs. Food preparation can be an art, but the goal is to just eat something. Just because you take 6 hours and use expensive ingredients to make a hamburger, doesn't make anything more than the cook at the diner making me a smash burger.

>>16602973
If you are actually from any of the places he visits you know the show is 110% fucking bullshit.

>>16602060
If you consider Mexicans cooking steak and chips for him being a chef.

>>16603102
Diarrhea?

>>16602060
I don't even think of him as a chef. I think of him as a foodie travel vlogger.

>>16602060
I think the dudes a mega troll. Netflix made him a celebrity, but his experiments with microwaves make him legendary.

>>16604394
>David Chang

>>16602385
Yeah, WAS cuz hes fucking dead you retard.

>>16602060
I still don't understand how you can be a food blogger and don't be fat

he's probably a nice guy tho

>>16602666
>guy fieri
>grew up dirt poor
>self made man
>idolized The Offspring and limp biskit
>has a family, monry, fame, restaurants and inner peace
>can also piss on bourdain's grave because he did not kill himself like a cuck

Gonna go with my guy Guy

>>16602915
Guy Fieri is the Antichrist

>>16604513
>Guy Fieri is the Antichrist

>>16604408
Redpill me on david chang, is he worth watching?

>>16602060
Whys the menu in english lol. Also dubs to dab on this pedo.

>>16603251
You misspelled giant cucked faggot who peddled an unsustainable dangerous druggy lifestyle at the height of the heroin epidemic to young stupid naïve dipshits who were not born with a silver spoon stuck up their ass like him

The only good thing he ever did in this world was become an hero.

>>16604993
He is a giant faggot, is asspained by imagined attacks on asian food culture by White ppl.
He literally cannot cook anything decent, he is just an attention whore and a Peking Kike

>>16602385
>incel

Funny, because non addicts can actually enjoy sex because we didn’t burn out our dopamine receptors. That’s why Bourdain had to strangle himself to get off and died doing it lol.

>>16602515
>>16602533
>ITS THE SAME AS DOING HEROIN GUISE

soccer mom logic

>>16602768
>>16603093
Drug addicts are human scum, and if you think drugs are cool past your teenage years everyone around you sees you as a bum and you should commit suicide.
