The debate over Thanksgiving during a pandemic has revealed the true nature of the holiday. It's never been about family or American heritage: It's always been about food. People enjoy food year-round, but Thanksgiving is a true celebration of it.
Another celebration of food can be found on YouTube, home of the cooking show "Binging With Babish," hosted by Andrew Rea. Rea's production values, elaborate recreations of fictional foods and soothing voice have made him a YouTube superstar and regular feature in memes that are perfect for watching to ease into your post-Thanksgiving-dinner food coma.
