Why it worked
The video works due to its engaging and competitive nature, combined with the visual appeal of the pastries being 'destroyed'. The playful arguments and reactions of the friends create humor and relatability, making viewers want to see who wins and how the pastries end up. The 'mukbang' aspect and the use of a popular game like rock-paper-scissors make it easily digestible and shareable.
