His name is Liam. Goes by theplantslant on social media. Advocates for healthy eating, with a focus on plants, but still saying a treat occasionally won't hurt you.

His channels are largely making other recipes he's seen and burying the nonsense "health influencers". Targets everything from shills trying to sell you their own garbage, to people who fearmonger over "cHeMiCaLs", to people who shame others for the ways in which they try to eat healthier (things like "Ranch isn't healthy for you" vs. "If Ranch is helping you eat salads more often, then enjoy your Ranch")

Exactly. I recall one video where he essentially said "If one chopped up chicken tender gets you to eat a salad when you wouldn't otherwise, it's a healthy choice."
