They both use the most annoying ideas for the quality of food too, key offender is THE CHEESE PULL.

It doesn’t mean a bloody thing in any context other than visual advertising to get you to buy the product, and often times it’s done by adding glue to the sodding cheese for marketing purposes. Are they eating glue, or are have we been sniffing it to sit through this tripe?
Don’t forget the snap of a sausage! No idea what that even means.

The more cringe and embarrassing he gets, the more I can’t watch it 🙈 fair enough, everyone has different takes on it. I do however think it’s not moral to plaster unsuspecting workers ,over the internet for click bait.

Indeed. He was in my husband's suggested list waaaay back when, when he had about 1k if that subs - it was kind of meteoric and a bit mesmerising to watch the vids and see it climb and climb. I remember saying to my husband that this must be an offshoot channel. The production shots were there from the off, which as we now know is entirely down to his son. As has been said on this thread - Gary is a useless food reviewer - there's a lot he doesn't like and he ran out of words a long time ago.
I think it was because in the beginning he was down to earth and was just showing people some good food that was around, then came the fast food, the 100 fish and chip shops, the clickbait slop and dumb thumbnails, and acting like billy big bollocks thinking he's a professional food reviewer, then everything went down hill

I've reflected on this overnight and I'm convinced that this was performative BS to deflect (even stop) any legitimate criticism. You cannot put any old BS out there and not expect to be challenged. "My truth' as opposed to THE truth doesn't exist. The fakery and hypocrisy has to stop and that is their modus operandi. They think we're all malleable to any old thing they say-if your mental health is so fragile take yourself off social media and live a quiet life. Interesting there's no evidence of any of what's been alleged which is extraordinary when you consider that they put their whole lives out there-i'm surprised they haven't done a 'join me for when I cut my toenails' vlog. Absolute nonsense.

I see that vlog where he went to that house has done over 750000 views.
That's gotta be over £2k in the bank.

Monday I'm buying a camping table and chair. 🤯

Exactly - why would anyone have a problem that he shopped in Waitrose when it's clear that he's making money from YouTube and his channel is all about spending money on eating out :LOL:

What a pest this man is, swanning into a business that’s been open for a long time like he’s saving the day. How did they get so far in their lives before Gary rocked up with £500?

What did bringing this bootlicker on and returning so soon to do a victory lap over a paltry sum do exactly besides feeding his ego? Random YouTube man says Gary is busy saving small businesses? Why do they all speak without any thought?

It does seem like anyone can knock about with a camera, describe food as beautiful [insert texture, flavour, smell or appearance] and you’re off to the races.

Please, please, please stop the “walking away” joke, it’s fucking dead. Also, we see you snatching all of random YouTubers food, passed off as banter or marking territory? Gary does seem to deal with the big green monster quite a lot. And I’m not talking about Greeno.
He thinks he's the next best thing since sliced bread (no pun intended). The whole lot of them are like Middle Aged Men Inc-they have this unassailable (erroneous) belief about themselves-Men on a White Charger syndrome. I'm not sure any of them could get up on the horse at this stage.

I think there's something very off about the impact these people think they're having on 'the public' and what standing they have (none)-it's giving delusions of grandeur. They make my skin crawl.

He was rambling on how he does his shopping in Sainsbury’s actually and was only getting a few essentials in Waitrose 🥴
It’s hardly like doing your weekly shop at Fortnums or Selfridges is it 🙈 the whole video was bonkers really

I have found that Greeno Eats knows much more about food and wine etc than Gary.
Greeno gives very good reviews over all. And he doesn't pretend he isn't making any money from youtube the way Gary does.
If only he would stop pushing up his glasses all the time - it's really irritating!

Just had a look and it has had 780 000 views, and your man Greeno is in the comments crying as well. Sick of this lot, totally up themselves.

Remember the look on the Chef’s face in Harvester.. when Gary requested a special word to “commend” him on a job well done 👏 Then plastered the guys face on it, with an “I approached the chef” angle.
Omg yes that poor chef looked mortified
I wouldnt be happy if I was out for dinner and the next day I found myself on YouTube

This bit from the latest video was hilarious. Gary seems disconcerted someone would imagine he was on a date with a man

I hate this dynamic they're trying to create like Danny is a stupid child and Gary is The Adult who rolls his eyes and corrects him or indulges him
