From bizarre to banal, there’s barely any category of content the Internet can’t shock us with. And yet food and fitness stand out among groupings. So, when American gym nut Henry Clarisey tasted some oven-roasted beef by Kibbles ‘n Bits — dog food with bistro-style flavours — viewers showered him with over two million likes. Were they influenced? Or, just curiously surprised? With the way digital trends have been going, a “yes” for the former seems possible. Clarisey was found gagging in the video. He later said the dog food was hard to chew down and felt like bits of rock inside his mouth. The 21-year-old might not do it again for more pronounced muscles, but will other fitness freaks learn from his mistake?
