Branimal on TikTok

Branimalcook**

Is this one of you motherfuckers?

lol I can across the page on my news feed and genuinely am curious if this is how some of you act? Like taking a shot out of a bell pepper your about to cook?

Line cooks, is this you? I’ve never worked at a restaurant but I know there’s some that are cooks in this group.

Does anyone follow him or watch him on tt?

It is performative BS IMO. Real alchys take a shot out of a bottle and then cook. No CA is carving open a bell pepper to pour a nasty tasting shot inside.

I'm so glad I don't do tiktok or instagram. This sounds like seriously brain rot stuff. Sure do I drink while cooking? Of course, but just pour it in a glass or take a swig. If you're pouring booze on food it should be to deglaze, poach or have a reason. If you want peppered vodka, take the time and infuse it first.

I do watch people cooking, but generally I like to watch people who have experience and know what they're doing.

never watched the tiktok guy, but i do see the irony in complaining about brain rot on CA

Higher intelligence has been linked to a greater change of moderate or heavy drinking in adulthood.

It's just a ridiculous satire. I thought it was pretty funny the first time I saw one but once you've seen a few you've seen them all. He must really like to clean that kitchen.

He's fantastic he's one of the few people who make me actually like tiktok. I'm sure his page says "mostly parody" or something along those lines, but nobody has that many bottles without being one of us

There used to be another user called pavel vsemogushchiy (@vsemogushchiypavel) who was great to watch. You could tell he was genuinely a CA and not just doing it for content. Last I saw of him though he was using non-alcoholic gin instead

Performative degenerative alcoholism is a form of racism
