Yuka Kinoshita began posting on her eating-focused YouTube channel since 2014, five years after her debut in Japanese competitive eating competitions.[2]
Kinoshita uploads daily videos in which she eats anywhere between 5,000 to 23,000 calorie meals. Usually Kinoshita edits her videos into 5 to 7 minute vlogs, but occasionally she uploads longer "live eating" videos in the tradition of mukbang. As of June 2020, her videos have garnered more than 2 billion views.[3]
Kinoshita's videos are particularly in Japanese and are accessible to English-speaking viewers because they are accompanied by English subtitles. Partly for this reason, she has attracted attention from English-language news sources.[4] She has also been featured in the Japanese television programme, Ōgui (大食い).[5]
Since the start of 2024, Kinoshita went on a hiatus after being cyberbullied and fell into depression.[6]
