On January 9th Eli Mielke created an Instagram account called peanutbuttereater16, with the idea of eating small amounts of peanut butter after getting a certain amount of followers. However, that …

“I was expecting it kind of as a joke to get you know maybe a couple hundred, but then once it got in the thousands it kept going. And I thought it was funny at first and then when I realized how much peanut butter I had to eat then it wasn’t much of a joke anymore and it was a lot of peanut butter,” said Eli.

Internet lesson learned..

“So I decided every 10,000 followers I’ll eat one cup of peanut butter,” said Eli.
However, that rule change didn’t save Eli from consuming large amounts of peanut butter much to his dismay.

Just call it quits.. You don't have to.

Eli made a goal on January 14th to cover himself in peanut butter once he reached 100,000 followers which he did a few days ago. Since starting the account the Mielke household has gone through seven jars of peanut butter.

“I’ve spent pretty close to $150 on peanut butter to support this venture for him,” said Angela.

Stop encouraging. Mass peanut butter consumption cannot be to great for you.

If he's got 100,000 followers he's making a ton of cash. His mom should let the $150 thing go.

Personally, I find it slightly concerning that that many people are willing to follow someone for this reason.

Not surprising though.

I'm still watching that woman groom dogs. I find it soothing.

Watching someone perform a repetitive task can be oddly relaxing, now that you mention it.

Awhile back I was getting offered various videos of someone cleaning rugs on YT shorts, I kept ending up watching them until I told YT to not recommend them.

Although shorts are deviously addicting by default.
It's probably good I have not yet created a tiktok account, I'd be lost.
