Guga is probably the worst popular food YouTuber. Pure gimmick with absolutely no substance or soul.

I skip a lot of the B-roll but I do find that some of his wacky experiments have piqued my interests. As a home cook, I've been trying to be more open minded about flavor combinations and have learned to not judge something before I actually try it myself.

Hard disagree.

I like what he does because while he makes shock content on GugaFoods, Sous Vide Everything is his real food channel.

Also... Most of his insane food experiments are ever things he recommends.

There's a very rare moment where he stumbled upon something that works well, and then he'll reccomend it.

Also his side dishes are absolute fire.

Remember: he's a chef, he doesn't actually serve this food to customers.

He's just making content for fun/shits and giggles, or at the request of viewers.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree because to me what you just described is what I criticized his channel for but saying it as a positive. So it's definitely not what I consider good content.
