*I've always thought this online food #trend was extremely #unhealthy & #dangerous. I wonder how many folks, who aren't well known, have died or become seriously sick from attempting this #overeating internet trend.*

A popular #Chinese #mukbang #streamer named Pan Xiaoting passed away on July 14, 2024, while she was doing an #EatingChallenge in a #livestream. The 24-year-old #ContentCreator is known for doing extreme challenges online, consuming vast amounts of food for long periods, sometimes 10 hours and more.

According to Hankyung, the autopsy revealed that Xiaoting died due to overeating. Her abdomen was found to be deformed, and her stomach contained an excessive amount of undigested food. The streamer reportedly consumed about 22 lbs of food in individual meals.

Pan Xiaoting's death has sparked a lot of debate on #SocialMedia. However, it must be noted that the incident comes 3 years after #China #outlawed mukbang and #BingeEating content in the country. The Chinese government passed an #AntiFoodWaste #law in 2021 that outlawed citizens from ordering too much food from restaurants and other eateries in an attempt to curb waste. Mukbang has been staple food content in #Asian countries such as #SouthKorea for some time. Usually #liveStreamed or uploaded to platforms like YouTube, such videos feature content creators eating various types of foods for entertainment.

How can the principles of mindfulness and compassion support a transition away from overeating and food addiction? I had the good luck of exploring this topic with Karen Steiner in conversation for the Vegan Family Kitchen Podcast.

You can find the Vegan Family Kitchen podcast on all platforms.

I hope this finds someone who needs to hear it.
