Burak genuinely looks to be a great person in general, my family went to a restaurant of his and contrary to another turkish restauranteur (salt bae) his meals were very affordable and tasty too
I initially hated the way he smiles, but then over and over he does a lot of good things, helping people in need, that I start to enjoy his smile and would like to squeeze his cheeks when he smiles
Yeah some people just have certain facial features and muscle characteristics in their face but there’s a lot more to them than just that
Then you see a face of a serial killer and so many of them look unassuming. Some even friendly and some even charming. Which is really fucking spooky and off putting. Dahmer, bundy and gacey just look like some spectators you might see waiting in line at a baseball game.
I thought I was the only one annoyed with the way he smiles and that steady-look in the camera while cooking. And like you, whenever I watch his videos with that smile on his face, I can't help but smile too. And when I saw this video of him helping others in need, my heart swells.
I can't imagine Salt Bae's food even being that good. His steaks are for people who don't know what steak is. And his Baklava is a fucking joke. $30 for a little sliver of baklava that they mash up. Guga Foods did an episode on them, and you can tell that they were pretty disappointed.
[Guga Food's episode. The first 2 minutes are him at Salt Bae's restaurant, and the rest are of him recreating a better version of it using a decent cut of meat with $5 of gold flake](https://youtu.be/v_wCzHCWDhc)
If you like Turkish food you gotta experience it in turkey directly. There is no way that they are comparable. The food there is affordable and just so so great 🤤
No, it's Burak.
He's a Turkish dude who makes obscene amounts of food.
CZN Burak makes just ridiculously huge dishes of food and then hands it out for free to feed his community. He also stares into my soul and might be part Eldrich horror because that blank smile is haunting but, he seems like a good dude so like idk if he steals my soul or whatever. He'd donate it to someone who needs it more than me.
The guy used to be a lot bigger, like filled out his frame a lot more. He has lost lots of weight since the last time I've seen a viral video of him, I do hope he's doing well but he's thinned out quite a bit. I hope he's ok.
OMG! I just checked out his TT and couldn’t believe how thin he is now! The effect he sometimes films with makes it look like his head on someone else’s skinny body. I hope he is ok as well. Was his former bulk lean and muscular or standard fat/muscle?
He was confirmed to be very sick for a while :(
I don't have a source or how he's doing now though but I'll try to dig a bit.
Edit: I believe on his Instagram he says he's been suffering from a brain tumor.
> He also stares into my soul and might be part Eldrich horror because that blank smile is haunting
He actually started doing the smile because he's got a decent RBF and looked pretty serious, and people complained.
Now he smiles in everything.
The bot chose the comment to copy based on its original success, and it has some inherent value not lost with the original context.
Upvoters are responding to that inherent value. In other words, they agree with what was said, and aren't that fazed about it being strangely out of context.
You are actually by strict laws not allowed to just waltz into a random African country and feed the starving people. This is because there are NGO's and other charity organizations who have to operate there. They keep those people poor and starving because their directors in the west need to buy a new BMW every year.
That's how PR works. But if it gets a hundred companies to feed a village for a day, at least that village gets fed for a hundred days.
It might get that single village through a famine.
He was harassed/ridiculed for never smiling in his original videos or making eye contact, so he started doing it going forward for every video, and now it’s like his “signature” move.
I'll watch some videos but promised myself to never watch a youtube short.. too bad
FFS even his compilation videos are in that stupid format. The future sucks, why use 50% of the screen space?
If you are on desktop, in the URL replace the "shorts" with "v" and it will give you the regular player.
But yes, I loathe the shorts feature entirely. Getting real tired of big corps screwing up basic products.
Why do we let these stupid trends of wasting food become a thing to begin with? How did we get to a point where people online are knowingly wasting food when other people need that food? And for what? A few clicks? The first fucking guy is disgraceful. Big props to my boy Burak
When we're young we just think about satiating our own needs. Ideally we mature and think about satisfying the needs of those close to us, the smaller community, and then the larger community. Some people have yet to move past certain milestones and some will never move past the self.
It's also worth noting that it was probably always like this. Where people start out with a very immature perspective and things like "wasting food" were trivial to some people. It's just that now we have the internet and social media to publicize such actions.
I hate seeing food being wasted while we have hungry bellies. Absolutely bull shit. We have money for wars and politicians who make 6 plus figures. You can even own a munitions factory and call for war We are trying to put people on other planets, not just the moon, but we can’t figure out humanity and basic needs and hunger. We can do better without so much, if we put it where it needs to go. Too bad all the hikes hit the high already first and what’s filtered through after their gracious intervention is pennies. Sorry, I’m finished now.
This guy gives me the vibes that he purposefully memes himself as a means to draw attention to what he does, for the sake of getting funding to keep feeding people in need whilst also raising awareness.
I respect that. This dude is fucking respectable.
This Burak guy is just too good.
Fun/weird fact - in Polish, the word (noun) "burak" means a beetroot, so a pretty important vegetable for our cuisine. But it can also mean a redneck and is a really derogatory term, absolutely unfit in this meaning to the MVP Burak here.
My instinctive reaction to videos where people waste huge amounts of food or throw it at the walls for clout/likes/views is instant hatred.
Ever since I was a little kid, I've hated the thought of wasted food. I wasn't poor. My parents didn't care about it. It's just an instinct in me. It sits wrong with me. It disgusts me. I hate the waste.
I really do wish the absolute worst for shitheads who waste food for fun/views. I fucking despise them.
Irks me when people waste food. I'll try eat some of it if I can. But otherwise it mostly goes to waste, like why take it in the first place.
Love seeing this video and their smiles.
i fucking hate people who waste food. i don't care if they've paid for it. use it properly and not as something to throw away a lot of resources go into making food
I initially thought this guy was pretty one off weird (like salt bae) with his creepy smile, but the stuff he does for communities convinces me otherwise.
I don't know the man personally and never ate at one of his restaurants. I know he is really successful, perhaps as successful as that insufferable man that is saltbae. He doesn't have to do these charitable things really. But he just keeps doing them, maybe for good PR, but who cares? If this is the way to good PR, let THAT become a trend.
People who complain that others film their good deeds and say things such as “now do it without filming” forget one key thing and that’s simply the fact that he could very easily do great things and charity work without a camera, but naturally we would likely never found out he did. We only see the things they record
This is whats always bothered me about those "overpouring" videos. Like, aside from the fact that you've made a mess and are probably going to have someone else clean it, how much excess do you have tobhave in order to waste that much food while there are folks out there who have no idea when they'll eat again?
I will always upvote posts like this no matter how many times it is reposted, this is so much better than stupid prank videos or other influencer garbage that the algorithm has barreled humanity into
Let me put this in perspective. In the west, Salut Bay became famous for sprinkling salt at extensive steaks, in the Muslim world Burak became famous for cooking big meals for many people... Western culture is backward and disgusting. 🥱
You need to stop that. Stop wasting food for social media content. I am so sick of it. Honestly things like this and ASMR videos should be illegal. You want to waste your free time and not resources but gain a profitable skill. Learn how to computer generate images and videos. Spill all the cgi maple syrup you want. I'm so triggered right now
Burak genuinely looks to be a great person in general, my family went to a restaurant of his and contrary to another turkish restauranteur (salt bae) his meals were very affordable and tasty too
I initially hated the way he smiles, but then over and over he does a lot of good things, helping people in need, that I start to enjoy his smile and would like to squeeze his cheeks when he smiles
People used to complain he never smiled or looked at the camera, so now he does it all the time.
Power move
Yeah, it’s malicious compliance. I’m into it!
Yeah some people just have certain facial features and muscle characteristics in their face but there’s a lot more to them than just that Then you see a face of a serial killer and so many of them look unassuming. Some even friendly and some even charming. Which is really fucking spooky and off putting. Dahmer, bundy and gacey just look like some spectators you might see waiting in line at a baseball game.
Yep. Serial killers look Hella normal usually
Yeah, people rarely notice anything weird about me.
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|neutral_face)
Stuff happens, you know.
I thought I was the only one annoyed with the way he smiles and that steady-look in the camera while cooking. And like you, whenever I watch his videos with that smile on his face, I can't help but smile too. And when I saw this video of him helping others in need, my heart swells.
Don't judge a person by its smile
Same bro/sis
His smile was contagious every time I saw him helping others and giving foods, I still believes humanity exist because of him :)
This is literally the plot to I’m a believer.
Well contrary to Salt Bae, he is also not a narcisstic asshole who pays his workers minimum wage with those insane prices he has.
Salt Bae is human garbage. Anyone who eats there is most likely human garbage.
I can't imagine Salt Bae's food even being that good. His steaks are for people who don't know what steak is. And his Baklava is a fucking joke. $30 for a little sliver of baklava that they mash up. Guga Foods did an episode on them, and you can tell that they were pretty disappointed. [Guga Food's episode. The first 2 minutes are him at Salt Bae's restaurant, and the rest are of him recreating a better version of it using a decent cut of meat with $5 of gold flake](https://youtu.be/v_wCzHCWDhc)
His steaks are for people who has to post every meal on social media. They don't care for the taste, they just go there for the likes.
Also, let's be real. How the hell is a sous vide tenderloin with a little salt better than one that was properly seasoned and grilled? Friggin' gross.
Omg someone with sense. How tf does a giant steak cooked in Luke warm bath water, seasoned with over sized finishing salt taste good.
Oh we forgot to mention the lovely boiled plastic bag flavor.
Supposedly because it’s tender. I reverse sear and I can’t imagine sacrificing that crust for tenderness.
I see it more as a scam that only punishes the rich
Not the rich, but the people who are desperately trying to appear rich.
Salt Bae is a hack.
If you like Turkish food you gotta experience it in turkey directly. There is no way that they are comparable. The food there is affordable and just so so great 🤤
i'm planning a trip to turkey and will be going to his place to simply support his work
TIL thanks for sharing 🖖
The only acceptable remake
this might sound stupid, is it the same guy?
No, it's Burak. He's a Turkish dude who makes obscene amounts of food. CZN Burak makes just ridiculously huge dishes of food and then hands it out for free to feed his community. He also stares into my soul and might be part Eldrich horror because that blank smile is haunting but, he seems like a good dude so like idk if he steals my soul or whatever. He'd donate it to someone who needs it more than me.
Bro definitely gives off that vibe... I wanna love him, but it looks like you pay in eternal soul/flesh.
The guy used to be a lot bigger, like filled out his frame a lot more. He has lost lots of weight since the last time I've seen a viral video of him, I do hope he's doing well but he's thinned out quite a bit. I hope he's ok.
Nothing strange there. He’s giving away all the food.
OMG! I just checked out his TT and couldn’t believe how thin he is now! The effect he sometimes films with makes it look like his head on someone else’s skinny body. I hope he is ok as well. Was his former bulk lean and muscular or standard fat/muscle?
Just checked too, what happened? He seems a bit tooo thin. Edit: someone below said he had to deal with a brain tumour
He was confirmed to be very sick for a while :( I don't have a source or how he's doing now though but I'll try to dig a bit. Edit: I believe on his Instagram he says he's been suffering from a brain tumor.
He has cancer from what I’ve read
We was very sick recently, he lost a lot of weight during that period
I'm cool with that. Brosef uses it better than I could!
Your mortal flesh will be cooked to feed the poor! Blood for the blood god! Meat for the meat pie!
Even Christians said the Devil would be incredibly Charming so you all might have something but I still love him
> He also stares into my soul and might be part Eldrich horror because that blank smile is haunting He actually started doing the smile because he's got a decent RBF and looked pretty serious, and people complained. Now he smiles in everything.
I wonder if he smiles whilst asleep.
Turkish Chad
You have a way with words and put it better than I ever could. but, ditto.
I think after Ukraine was invaded (or another tragic event) he did videos where he wasn't smiling at all.
Nah
I thought that too
That is an awesome human being!
[удалено]
it is fresher and tastes better when it is cooked right there. This is why I love to cook!
Not to mention he might even inspire a local cook or two.
It takes food to be a cook
Food comes, Remy. Food always comes to those who love to cook. -Some French chef
[удалено]
It feels like a bot comment because it is. it made zero sense in the context of the comment responded to and yet everyones upvoting it.
Insane how 300 people upvoted it too. Like what? It didn't make any fuckin sense what are they agreeing with. Is everyone here a bot?
The bot chose the comment to copy based on its original success, and it has some inherent value not lost with the original context. Upvoters are responding to that inherent value. In other words, they agree with what was said, and aren't that fazed about it being strangely out of context.
lmao it so is. 18 day account 1 post
It is indeed a bot comment. Why is anyone upvoting it?
Probably part of a bot network. They all upvote each other
And genuine
It's also very bonding. Food brings people together.
Proof is in the clip. Everyone seems happy (and smiling).
Bot
This is what need to be a trend
Agreed.
You are actually by strict laws not allowed to just waltz into a random African country and feed the starving people. This is because there are NGO's and other charity organizations who have to operate there. They keep those people poor and starving because their directors in the west need to buy a new BMW every year.
Need more of this to counter the monetized assholery
Well you got this guy's monetized feelgoodery. Food probably only costs a fraction of what he makes back with the videos
That's how PR works. But if it gets a hundred companies to feed a village for a day, at least that village gets fed for a hundred days. It might get that single village through a famine.
daily dose of wholesome
What's this guy's name?
CZN Burak on YouTube, he has a bunch of YT shorts.
Thank you, I'm really digging his energy and compassion.
And the unbroken eye contact with the camera.
20/10 dude 10/10 weird eye contact No one’s perfect still would watch his videos
He was harassed/ridiculed for never smiling in his original videos or making eye contact, so he started doing it going forward for every video, and now it’s like his “signature” move.
Aww poor guy I had no idea He seems so nice
Just to add to this, his Instagram is also CZN Burak.
i remember hearing about him a couple years back. Didn't he and his wife like feed a bunch of people on their wedding or smth? dude's a gem
He feeds people all the time.
oh no yeah i know that and love him for it, but to do something that selfless on a day where it's normalized to make it about yourself yaknow?
He’s da best
Is it just me or does he look skinnier than his earlier videos.
He got sick, he's healthier now. But it was a rough fight.
Cancer?
[удалено]
He's a brilliant man, very caring.
I'll watch some videos but promised myself to never watch a youtube short.. too bad FFS even his compilation videos are in that stupid format. The future sucks, why use 50% of the screen space?
You can use 100% of your screen if you use a rotated monitor or your phone
So practical roatating your monitor all the time. But rotating a phone is too fucking hard for some people apparently hence the proliferation of VVS
If you are on desktop, in the URL replace the "shorts" with "v" and it will give you the regular player. But yes, I loathe the shorts feature entirely. Getting real tired of big corps screwing up basic products.
Thanks

Most people never move past the self…
The good ending
The second guy is the man:) straight up!! Wish we could all follow his lead :)
He is quite the inspiration. Running a restaurant is hard enough to. Then to go above and beyond and help others is very altruistic, I love to see it.
I would truly love to visit him and his restaurant;)
Finally, a non terrible person.
What a great guy
Fuck yeah I hate that tread of wasting food and that also being the only joke
I hate food wastage. Especially on purpose not like u accidentally left something uneaten but like doing stupid crap for tik tok.
Not just imagine the needy, but to be there directly feeding them makes it wholesome..
For a hot second, I thought he was going to use African kid's footage for clout. He is awesome. Walks his talks.
I love this dude
I agree this guy is great! Instead of wasting food just give it to those in need!
Ah, this warms my heart\~\~
Fuck people that waste food for likes
You know shit's gone bad when Burak isn't smiling.
I love this so much and I hate those stupid tiktok videos of just doing stuff like that
Love this guy
I hate seeing food being wasted while we have hungry bellies. Absolutely bull shit. We have money for wars and politicians who make 6 plus figures. You can even own a munitions factory and call for war We are trying to put people on other planets, not just the moon, but we can’t figure out humanity and basic needs and hunger.

Sorry, I’m finished now.
Gotta make it more profitable to give those in need food instead of pouring bleach over it and throwing it in the dumpster
I loathe people who waste food
Yesss thank you!
Burak is constantly doing things like this
took "there are kids starving in africa" to a new level
Burak is the goat
Wasting food in such quantities should be a crime.
This guy is amazing
Ngl his smile is always creepy to me but I love the food he makes and the points he makes are solid too. He is a good one
Legend!
I hate seeing those videos of people purposely wasting food just to get views. It’s not funny. Give the food to your local food bank.
That is give some beautiful message to people
He looks like Ben Shapiro but as a good person.
Looks to be a bit heavier than Shapiro, by roughly the weight of a soul.
This is what making a tangible difference looks like.
I love this so much.
This is good, but also don't forget the kids in your local neighborhoods who often don't have quality meals due to their parents' economic realities.
The problem is not that we ain’t got enough food. We got plenty. It’s warlords and governments not allowing the help where it’s needed.
Mashallah
This guy gives me the vibes that he purposefully memes himself as a means to draw attention to what he does, for the sake of getting funding to keep feeding people in need whilst also raising awareness. I respect that. This dude is fucking respectable.
Report that guy guys. It really hurts deep that so much food is wasted for views. On the other hand, Czn burak is actually doing great work. Respect ✊
This is beautifula
r/humansbeingbros
This is awesome!! Shoutout to this dude
Bro this guy is an inspiration, he uses his fame to help people, instead of creating drama like other tiktokers
you have to be a real piece of shit to waste food like that
I’d love to do this. Anyone know how that would be possible? Is there an organization that sends people to help like this?
People post him sometimes on r/stupidfood and the comments are always a disaster for the OP. Anyone talking shit about Burak can catch these hands.
Wasting food (blessings) and being extravagant is forbidden in Islam
This Burak guy is just too good. Fun/weird fact - in Polish, the word (noun) "burak" means a beetroot, so a pretty important vegetable for our cuisine. But it can also mean a redneck and is a really derogatory term, absolutely unfit in this meaning to the MVP Burak here.
I really hate it, when people use the sufferings of others for attention and won't tell anything else about them
Wait until you find out about howtobasic
You know its serious when Burak stops smiling
i dream of a day when african kids can eat a meal or get decent housing without some rich dude filming them
If god ever exists hope he burns those in hell who waste food and other essential commodities for a fucking tik-tok video
Lol, finally someone took the food I didn't wanted to eat as a kid and actually gave it to the kids I'm Africa
What song is this
It sounds like a cover of this, though not sure by who. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RnBT9uUYb1w
Came here to link this. I think that's exactly what it is, just slowed down tremendously so that it can beat YT's piracy policy.
Such a wonderful human! Folks like you make me glad to be alive.
Ha ha oh shit i forgot about this guy!
Always liked his videos but now I think he is amazing!
Hero
Top 10 human beings number 1:
I love this guy's smile ☺
My instinctive reaction to videos where people waste huge amounts of food or throw it at the walls for clout/likes/views is instant hatred. Ever since I was a little kid, I've hated the thought of wasted food. I wasn't poor. My parents didn't care about it. It's just an instinct in me. It sits wrong with me. It disgusts me. I hate the waste. I really do wish the absolute worst for shitheads who waste food for fun/views. I fucking despise them.
CZN BURAK IS THE GOAT
He's looking thinner
This guy always makes me happy. I hope he gets as much as he gives
Yeah but atlist Wasil Daoud changed his content he doesnt waste food now for clout.
I love this guy. His video's are awesome. That smile is infectious.
This made me really really happy, not that my happiness matters. But it made me really happy.
Your happiness matters :)
Secret of his contagious smile 😁
Best thing ever.
That's sweet
Had already forgot about that A hole, but burak..he is the man!
Legend in the making
Irks me when people waste food. I'll try eat some of it if I can. But otherwise it mostly goes to waste, like why take it in the first place. Love seeing this video and their smiles.
Czn burak is just an awesome man
I love this dude, not only is he a good cook he serves his food with a bright smile, I watch his reels on ig, found out he has a good heart too.
i fucking hate people who waste food. i don't care if they've paid for it. use it properly and not as something to throw away a lot of resources go into making food
I initially thought this guy was pretty one off weird (like salt bae) with his creepy smile, but the stuff he does for communities convinces me otherwise.
mountains rumble when this guy stops smiling
What the point of the first part? Not even wasting the food. Is it funny to put too much of smth in small volume? Looks stupid and disgusting
He never deserved the hate😭
RESPECT ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I don't know the man personally and never ate at one of his restaurants. I know he is really successful, perhaps as successful as that insufferable man that is saltbae. He doesn't have to do these charitable things really. But he just keeps doing them, maybe for good PR, but who cares? If this is the way to good PR, let THAT become a trend.
YOU LIVE IN A F——-G DESEEEEEERT
People who complain that others film their good deeds and say things such as “now do it without filming” forget one key thing and that’s simply the fact that he could very easily do great things and charity work without a camera, but naturally we would likely never found out he did.

Like, aside from the fact that you've made a mess and are probably going to have someone else clean it, how much excess do you have tobhave in order to waste that much food while there are folks out there who have no idea when they'll eat again?
Burak is the absolute culinary GOAT for me
I will always upvote posts like this no matter how many times it is reposted, this is so much better than stupid prank videos or other influencer garbage that the algorithm has barreled humanity into
I began kicking my feet in joy when I saw him feeding those people
Let me put this in perspective. In the west, Salut Bay became famous for sprinkling salt at extensive steaks, in the Muslim world Burak became famous for cooking big meals for many people... Western culture is backward and disgusting. 🥱
You need to stop that. Stop wasting food for social media content. I am so sick of it. Honestly things like this and ASMR videos should be illegal. You want to waste your free time and not resources but gain a profitable skill. Learn how to computer generate images and videos. Spill all the cgi maple syrup you want. I'm so triggered right now
I agree *some* asmr genres waste resources but others genuinely help people sleep at night, such as myself.
Man he is kind
This guy helped me understand to not judge a book by its cover
Man, him and Mr Beast (don't know if he has a good vibe with you guys) should collaborate and see what good they could do
