Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

My baby tries exotic fruit

Joshua Weissman's newest international taste test has a rather different companion: "My baby tries exotic fruit." The family-centered upload has drawn nearly six million views, making it the week's most-watched new release and the channel's busiest video right now.

The contrast is very Josh: an appetite for unfamiliar food, with a more personal reason to serve it. Viewers are talking about the shift from chef to dad, and about hearing him call his child "my baby." It also gives an older upload, "I Cook For a Baby," some thematic company. That video remains among the channel's most active uploads almost three months after publication.

The other new release, "I Tried Exotic Food From Every Country," takes the curiosity further afield. Its description asks what unusual foods around the world taste like, while its tags point toward blue lobster, geoduck and Japanese foods. It had already attracted roughly 736,000 views in its first fourteen hours. For a creator whose archive includes a food tour of every American state, the international premise is a natural extension.

Across the channel, daily views are running at more than twice their usual level, though the subscriber count finished the week unchanged. Weekly viewing sits in a similar range to Mark Wiens and Bobby Parrish, while Max the Meat Guy had a substantially larger week. For Weissman, the distinctive pairing is closer to home: worldwide food curiosity alongside another installment of cooking and tasting as a parent.

Ngl, hearing a dad say "my baby" is so wholesome, I don't hear that too often where I'm from, I hear my kid, or my son/daughter.
