Fans React to Mukbang YouTuber’s Dramatic Weight Loss
From Vegan Vlogger to Mukbang Master
Nikocado Avocado’s rise to fame has been accompanied by significant controversy. His content often includes exaggerated emotional outbursts, fights with other YouTubers, and discussions about his rapidly deteriorating health, both physical and mental. His shift from a relatively healthy vegan diet to consuming massive amounts of fast food has led to weight gain and frequent discussions about his health, with many viewers expressing concern over the long-term effects of his lifestyle choices.
No One Saw This Coming
Perry recently shocked his followers when he posted his latest video in early September. The video began with a male figure wearing a panda head and speaking very softly. The man in the video continues to go on an incoherent rant where he calls himself a "villain" and mentions that followers will continue to follow his story for years. The character then removes the head covering and reveals that it is indeed Perry who lost a whopping 250 pounds!

Perry has openly discussed his battles with depression, anxiety, and binge eating, but many critics argue that he sensationalizes his struggles for views. His persona often blurs the line between reality and performance, leading to questions about how much of his online behavior is genuine and how much is an act.
Reveal Was Years in the Making
Obviously Perry didn't lose all of that weight overnight, leading his followers to speculate wildly about how he managed such an extreme makeover. Youtuber @katiemosq commented, "the fact he was able to keep this entirely private, with no one in the world telling his secret, while actively creating rumors of heart attacks and failed weight loss is so complex I can’t even wrap my head around it." User @naszrp added, "gaining as much weight as possible to see what people say then losing all of the weight is wild."
Despite the controversies, Nikocado Avocado remains one of the most prominent figures in the mukbang community. His content draws millions of views, making him both a subject of fascination and concern. His success showcases the complex relationship between social media fame and the impact it has on creators' well-being.
