The 'Binging With Babish' meme series stems from the wildly popular YouTube channel hosted by Andrew Rea, where he recreates iconic dishes from movies and television. Known for his soothing voice, high production value, and signature 'tiny whisk,' Babish became a meme icon through his perfectionism and recurring tropes. Fans often use his image to joke about their own lack of culinary skills compared to his professional techniques, or to highlight the absurdity of spending days making ingredients from scratch. The memes celebrate the 'Babish Culinary Universe' (BCU) while poking fun at the high standards of modern foodie culture and the satisfying nature of his ASMR-adjacent cooking style.
