When YouTube Ruins Your Day
The YouTube Shorts algorithm decided this was “relevant content” about choripán. No, thanks algorithm.
The Horror Short
Forensic Analysis of the Disaster
Watch this video and tell me:
- Is that real chorizo?
- Does that bread look French?
- Do you see chimichurri anywhere?
Obvious problems:
- ❌ [Whatever is wrong in the video]
- ❌ [Another visible error]
- ❌ [More atrocities]
Why Does This Go Viral?
Because the world doesn’t know what a real choripán is.
People see:
- Something in bread
- That could be meat
- With something green (lettuce? what?)
And think: “Ah, must be Argentine choripán”
WRONG.
How YouTube Is Destroying Choripán Culture
- Viral “choripán” video → 1 million views
- People worldwide watch it
- They think THAT is choripán
- They go to Argentina expecting THIS
- They’re disappointed when given the real thing
- “It’s not like the TikTok one” 🤦
We’re in a choripán existential crisis.

An authentic Argentine choripán:
