2021-02-07 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 1 hr 14 min

Chantal goes live to defend YouTuber Eugenia Cooney against petitions seeking to de-platform her for being very thin and possibly having an eating disorder. Chantal (Foodie Beauty) explains why removing someone's channel for an illness is discriminatory and counterproductive, relates the situation to her own struggles with an eating disorder and recovery, and discusses mukbangs, intuitive eating, therapy, and moderation. She answers viewer questions, mentions specific foods and brands (Starbucks refresher, HelloFresh, Chipotle, McDonald's), and closes by thanking viewers and saying she will post an edited video later.
