Hello Internet!
And Welcome to Behind The Meme!
Where we take a look at the meaning and the origin of your favorite memes and trends!
Today we have a look at Salt Bae!
Thank you all so very much for suggesting this topic!
This one blew up and got pretty big this past week but When I first saw it I thought It
may be too late to make a video on the subject but then I saw that I still had people requesting
it in my comments section so I knew that I had to get it done.
You guys wanted it, now you have it!
Here We GO!!!!!!
So what exactly is Salt Bae…well, before I can explain I must ask you a couple questions
to make sure you want to proceed with this video.
Question 1…Do you like food?
I’m pretty sure the answer is yes.I mean unless you’re anorexic or something, In
which case you should call this number seriously Question 2…Do you like porn?
Now I know damn well the answer to that is a definite yes!
Well lucky for you if you said yes to those two questions you are going to love salt bae.
Let me show you why….Whoa whoa whoa whoa Wrong video, this isn’t that type of channel.
I meant to play this clip right here.
Sorry vegetarians….Salt bae refers to the nickname given to a Turkish chef named, Nurset
Gokce… gokce.You know what?
I’m sorry I tried..
Nurset became famous after he posted a video of himself preparing a steak and sprinkling
salt on it in a very unique manner on January 7th 2017.
that video captivated the world and caused #saltbae to trend worldwide.
Within a few days of posting the video it had amassed over 2 million views!
That’s a lot of views!
Now earlier in the video when I was talking about porn, you may have thought to yourself
that I was taking it a bit too far and over exaggerating.
It’s like how is salt bae similar to porn?
Because he’s filmed more than just the original video.
Have a look at this video right here.
Cmon…
I can’t be the only one who sees the connections.
He is taking it to the brink of porn without it being considered porn. being extra sensual
with that big thick meat of his….
damn it that came out the wrong way.I meant to say with his juicy slab of beef…damn
that didn’t sound good either…uhh with his non sexual steak.
There.
Penis.
Damn it!
After the popularity of the initial videos, saltbae began to appear in various memes that
often utilized his attractiveness or the way he sprinkled the salt in comedic ways.
Not only did he appear in memes but people also created parody videos imitating saltbae’s
original video.
Now after all the excitement from his videos many people were left wanting to know more
information about nurset.
Well I learned a couple of interesting things while researching this topic.
he happens to be the owner of the Nusr-et steakhouse restaurants in turkey and dubai.
sorry ladies this image was posted to his instagram account with him and what appears
to be his 9 children…yes I said 9 children.
The rough translation to the text accompanied with the image is “the man who does not
spend time with his family is not a real man”.so I’m guessing that at least one of these
kids is his, maybe not all 9 of them.
Maybe theres a few nieces and nephews but at least one of these kids is his.
The point that I’m trying to make is he’s doing a lot more with his meat than cooking
it.
Ehhh?
Anybody?
You get it?you know Meat… you know kids…you .. no?
So there you have it!
