- (gasps) What? This is art.
- That's not oddly satisfying. That's extremely satisfying.
♪ (rock intro) ♪
(sizzling)
- Ooh. Yum. - What are they making?
Oh, that's cool. - This is gonna make me so hungry.
- So, it's food. Ooh, is this oddly satisfying?
Yeah. - That looks...
Why don't my omelets turn out like that?
It never cooks that way. - Twisty eggs?
I love twisty eggs! I've never had twisty eggs.
- What is that? Looks like a flower now.
- It's like a little volcano, but eggs and rice.
- Yum. That looks so good. Excuse me. Where is that?
I need to go. - That was very satisfying.
Everything that was done to that egg was exactly
like what was supposed to be done to it.
That was always its destiny.
- Ooh, slap that ass. Sorry! I'm so sorry.
- When I see people playing with dough,
I get so jealous, 'cause I'm like,
"I wanna touch it too." - This is as much fascinating
as it is satisfying. Actually, I lied.
Okay, that is very satisfying. - Are they making doughnuts?
Is this a type of doughnut or a churro?
- Ooh. Whoa! See that trick? That was--
try spinning. That's a good trick.
- Why do they all look so perfectly twisted?
They did them so quickly. - Bam.
Oh, wow. - Those things look fat. (chuckles)
The churros I'm used to are nowhere near that fat.
- Gimme!
It's like a fried dough beignet churro looking thing.
- Oh my gosh. okay. I need to know where that is from,
because it looks so good. - It has a style very close
to a churro, but it also kind of looks like a doughnut.
Maybe it's a churrona, you know? - (FBE) We have some more
delicious videos to show you in a second, but those were
some videos from a subcategory on YouTube called
oddly satisfying street food. - Street food.
You can't beat street food. There's just something about it
that is so satisfying to eat. - Comparatively to how I cook food,
that's a work of art. That's Picasso,
and I'm like a toddler finger painting.
- (FBE) So, we've covered some oddly satisfying food videos
in the past that are baking or cooking videos that we've shown,
and they can be considered oddly satisfying.
So, today, we thought it would be fun to watch some food versions
of these satisfying videos, but also for you to try some of them.
- Ooh! I was gonna say, it's gonna be really hard
to get through this whole thing without eating anything,
but now you've just changed my whole life.
- And there's no punishment? - (FBE) No.
- Wow. You guys are so generous today. Wow. Thank you.
- (FBE) So first, we're gonna have you try the twisted doughnuts
that you just saw on that last video. - My god.
They look so pretty. - It smells really good too.
- You got the cinnamon. You got the-- it's cooked perfectly.
I can't talk anymore. I have to... (crunch)
- It tastes exactly like a churro, except without the little...
pleats in it? I don't know what you would call those.
- This tastes amazing! I like the texture.
It's almost like a pretzel. - The cinnamon sugar just coating
your tongue, your mouth, and it's like you're descending
on a cloud and you're going to cloud nine,
and you're in heaven, and I'm in heaven,
and this is great. Thank you. (chuckles)
I can't believe this is real.
- It's so pretty! It's going up so smoothly.
- I'm intrigued to see what that's gonna look li--
It's a little pancake! - Yo, I've wanted to try these so bad.
I'm sure they just taste like normal pancakes,
but look at how fluffy they are. - My mouth is watering!
This looks so perfect. - Everything looks so good.
That's just straight-up sugar. Interesting. You'd think they'd put
the sugar in the gla-- oh! Oh, that's-- (chuckles)
Wow. - No! Don't caramelize that sugar.
You bad bitch. - Bomb. My mouth is literally
drooling right now. - That is satisfying.
Those blobs, they're so easy for you to be uneven,
to make them uneven. But he has consistency.
I have to give them that.
- It's crazy the amount of street foods that you find
all across the world to be honest. I'm just stuck comparing them
to, say, Mexican street foods and being like, "What do we have
that can compete with this?"
(sizzling)
- Ooh. What is that goo?
- What's gonna happen here? - (gasps) What?
That is-- this is art! Straight up art.
- Oh, wow. Yo, that's satisfying.
It's like little glass.
- Okay, that is so satisfying, peeling all that off.
- Oh, that color's so nice. - Whoa! It looks like lava.
- Oh!
- (man speaking foreign language) - Oh my goodness. Can I do that?
That looks so fun. - That looks like a workout.
Oh my god. Look at how silky and pretty that looks!
(gasps)
What?! - Whoa! That's not oddly satisfying.
That's extremely satisfying. - People just don't know how artistic
the process of really making homemade candy is like.
That was beautiful. - That sound just makes me
wanna bite it or squeeze it, like crunch it up.
That one was probably the most satisfying too, I think.
- Yum. I don't even know what it is yet, but it looks yum.
- Those little bowls look pretty cool. I'm not gonna lie.
- Oh, wow! That's cool. - It just looks so good.
I think this is also Japan. - That's beautiful.
Look at those eggs too. - What are you?
Throw some cheese? [Bleep] yeah. Throw that in the oven.
Get some bacon? Yes! Yes. (chuckles)
I'm getting way too excited about this.
- That's so cute! Oh my god!
And they have a little oven to fit their little pans.
- The presentation just makes it so much more appetizing.
- That's like a baked breakfast sandwich type thing.
That looks so good. - That looks like a great
breakfast get up and go kind of thing.
- (FBE) For this round, we want you to try
this egg bread dish. - Oh my gosh.
This looks so good. (gasps)
- Split it in half, do a little cross section, right?
It's a lot of bread and then you have a little egg,
cheese thing here. - Oh my god.
It feels so dense. I-- oh, okay.
I'm just gonna shut the [bleep] up and bite it.
- Oh my gosh. That's so good.
- I'm having a hard time deciding if this is a dessert
or if this is a breakfast sandwich. It's savory, but it's also
still kind of sweet. - I don't know. The egginess
of the bread and the cheese and the bacon on it
really kind of help break through just that sweetness.
It just tastes like breakfast. - It's like salty from the egg,
but then the core bread's kind of sweet.
I could eat this whole thing. - And honestly, I'm mad
that I'm probably never gonna ever find this again too,
'cause it's really good. But I'ma try to look up
how to make it, 'cause it's so good.
(loud whirring) - What is that? Rice?
- I guess it loosens it up.
Nope, it does the exact opposite.
(chuckles) Okay. - It does not look like rice at all.
I mean, it is oddly satisfying though, for sure.
- Oh, I just wanna just bite into it.
It just looks so squishy and fun. - Wow. That's pretty.
No, I like this one. I wanna eat 'em.
- Oh, cheese. - Just the things that people
come up with are so clever and creative.
- And rice with cheese. And then is it fried?
Oh my gosh. Bomb! (sizzling)
- Anything you put-- deep fry anything in oil,
and I love it. I just love it. Oh, wow. That looks real good, though.
- Yeah! Throw a little sauce on that bad bitch.
(whispers) Yes. Yes!
I get so excited about food. I could totally be a chef
in another life.
(sizzling) - Strawberry Japanese crepe
and black charcoal crepe. - I'm dead! This looks amazing.
- Crepes are so satisfying to watch too, them being made.
It's like an art. - Putting Oreos into it.
I'm an Oreo fiend. - Ooh, Oreos. I love Oreos.
- I was in France, and I was watching the guy
make these crepes, and I was also mesmerized.
- This almost reminds me of the process of when they make
rolled ice cream too.
- And then it's just gonna come out perfectly,
because this is what he does all the time,
and he's good at it. - This is bad.
I was supposed to be dieting, and you guys just [bleep] ruined it
in a seven-minute span. - That was really satisfying to watch.
It's always fun to see them pour just a little bit
of whatever the mixture is and then watch 'em
roll it out super thin. - It's very satisfying.
You can't help but admire their expertise.
- (FBE) Finally, we are going to have you try one of those crepes.
- Stop. I don't wanna eat it! It looks so pretty!
- You could already see the Oreos in it.
Oh Mylanta.
- Ah! Mm. And it's warm.
Ah. Mm. - Really good.
It is the best crepe I've had, I think, ever.
- This is the kind of eater I am. I like to close my eyes
and just really experience the food. I see, like...
swirls, swirls of color. - Mmmm!
I just got the center of the Oreo. Like I said, it's gonna be
a good day, guys. A very good day.
- (FBE) Some of these oddly satisfying street foods
have millions of views, and many would agree
that oddly satisfying videos in general are still pretty popular
on YouTube. - Yeah. Oh yeah.
How can they not be? Anything that just makes you
feel satisfied is gonna succeed, you know? It's gonna be popular.
- (FBE) There are various subgenres of oddly satisfying, like slime,
crushing things... - Soap cutting.
- (FBE) ...ASMR, or, as you saw today, street food production.
- I've never heard of street food oddly satisfying videos.
That's so cool. - (FBE) So, after experiencing this,
what would you say your favorite subcategory
of oddly satisfying videos would be? - I think right now it's just food,
because I'm just really happy with that whole experience.
That was really fun to watch. - I'd say probably this is
my favorite subcategory is the oddly satisfying foods.
- It has to be either food or ice cutting.
- Kind of slime, but I think anything
that cuts things perfectly or smushes things and has the crunch,
I think that's my favorite. - I'm a big fan of the paint ones,
where people will glide paint across a palette.
I don't like when they mix them, 'cause I think the satisfying thing
about it is just seeing paint get thinned out.
- (FBE) Finally, after watching some of these oddly satisfying
street foods and trying some, do you think that they were
more satisfying to watch or eat? - For sure eat, right?
I mean, when you're watching it, what do you want?
You wanna eat it, obviously. - Watching the process
of how it's made, I think, to me, is more satisfying,
'cause I'm just like, whoa. Then you get to appreciate--
I feel like when you do eat it, you get to appreciate it,
'cause you're like, they went through all that to do this.
- Watching it and then eating, that's the home run.
That's the end of the marathon. We did it. It's great.
- Oh, eat. Eat by far. If you guys think just watching it
is satisfying, just wait till you eat it. Just wait. (chuckles)
