The influencer that was disrespectful towards a food truck in Japan is now facing massive backlash. He has now issued an apology for his actions. Let’s recap, he messaged a food truck in Japan and asked to do a review. He arrived two days early, brought a friend unannounced and then proceeded to spit out his food after he claimed he didn’t like it. I can’t help but feel that this is scripted and feels forced to me. I’ve watched his videos many times, back when he was first starting out I think he was genuine, he gave his honest opinion good or bad, but he did it respectfully. I feel as he got bigger in followers, he had to create some shock value to differentiate himself from all the other people doing the same style of videos. That’s why I think he started being rude and disrespectful to others, is to create a buzz around his name. I’ve always felt that I am entitled to my opinion, however I think I can express my opinion and be true to myself without maliciously bringing down others as well. I know many of these people are doing these videos for the money, that has always been clear to me. However I feel it can still be done in such a way that is valuable to the viewers while being honest at the same time as well. I don’t think people like him would even be apologizing or regretting their actions if it wasn’t affecting their bottom line.

This influencer asked this Texas bbq food truck in Japan to do a collab. Not only did he arrive two days early but he even brought another influencer friend unannounced. He then proceeded to be disrespectful, and spit out the food. His bad review is making the food truck now struggle. I never liked the idea of someone who is expecting free food in exchange for publicity and exposure. It seems rather one sided to me. Many times, the influencer isn’t familiar with the culture and style of food. I feel if he wasn’t used to the flavors and he didn’t like it, he didn’t have to be over dramatic about it and spit it out. He could have just said it wasn’t to his liking. For me he lost all credibility when he said the pork ribs weren’t even Wagyu when earlier it was clear he didn’t know what Wagyu tasted like when he ate the brisket. Wagyu is a breed of cow not pig, so in a sense he was right, the pork rib isn’t Wagyu. I feel he owes them an apology for his entitled behavior. It’s a shame their business is now suffering because of someone like this.
