How America Got Obsessed With Protein https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/podcasts/the-daily/protein-bars-america.html

The macronutrient is the latest fad in dietary culture.

Seemingly overnight, Americans have become obsessed with pumping as much protein as possible into every drink, snack and meal.

Elizabeth Dunn, a writer and contributor to The Times, explains the origins of this latest nutrition craze.

There's literally no meltdown in this video.

Why did the title have to be a lie? Why not just be honest about the content? Do they think this will get them viewers? Because personally, when I see videos like this it just makes me hide the channel, dislike the video, downvote the post, and ignore all future posts by the person who submitted it.

Maybe there are more definitions of meltdown than you think.

Wild thing to just verbatim include an unedited AI overview in your video. Just downright unprocessed slop injected mid-stream

It's not my video, it's by Natalie Fulton (a vegan activist). I didn't notice any AI overview, but I probably just listened to the video in the background. Can you point to a timecode?
