Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Thailand Might Have the BEST KFC in the World

What do Jimi Jackson's viewers watch when he posts nothing new? Fried chicken, mostly. "Thailand Might Have the BEST KFC in the World" went up nearly five months ago and is still the video drawing the most daily views, already past 300,000 in total.

Right behind it sits another food verdict, "Gourmet VS Bakery Pies… Which is Better?", half a year old. Its description signs off the way Jimi usually does, calling his viewers homies and asking them to suggest the next video. For a channel built on the eager taste test, it is fitting that two old comparisons are doing the work.

The newest of the three is something different: "Going to my first ever NFL game 🏈", posted nine days ago. It is a far smaller video so far, but it is the one people keep finding among his recent uploads, a first-timer's day at the stadium rather than a plate of food.

Across the seven days the channel took in a little over 150,000 views, running somewhat above its usual daily level even without anything new. Subscribers held steady.

Among the cooking and food channels near his size, the big weeks belong to others: Chef Thomson's daily views are running at more than twice their usual level, and The Grumps and Ethan Rode are well up too. ChefSteps and The Stay At Home Chef are on a steadier footing, much like Jimi, whose KFC trip keeps turning up on viewers' screens.
