5 TikTokers To Follow If Watching Cooking Videos Relaxes You

TikTok really is that girl. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re looking for fashion advice, new makeup products to try, or relaxing content meant to chill you out when you’re stressed and need to decompress. There’s no shame in loving a good scroll and protecting your peace through the phone. Some people love ASMR, others prefer coloring videos, but for many that source of tranquility is watching food videos. It’s not surprising the low sizzle of a hot grill or the crisp slice of a loaf of bread is calming enough to loosen up the nerves.

In a recent poll of 2,000 Americans who cook regularly, conducted by OnePoll on behalf of Noom, 65% of respondents said they find food-related social media content soothing — and a third of the responders either “always” or “often” consume this content before bed as a mode of relaxation. According to the survey, the average person sees 13 food-related videos during any given week.
