I think I need to start getting my brows done rainbow-style for now on.

Those goggles are strangely hypnotizing.

4. And wears donut hats.

I got a donut on my head, but don’t call me a donut head.

5. Sometimes the food is so good he throws his hands up in praise, as we all should.

Praise the lawd for PB&J!

“Wow, my face looks delicious.”

I wonder if he can hook me up with the guy who invented shake shack?

Insert food here, in my mouth.

9. He’s brutally honest when he doesn’t like something.

Not a fan of that Número Uno Deep Dish #Pizza at #PizzeriaUno. Also, yes, we tried Pequod’s, Lou Malnati’s and Giordano’s (listed in order of goodness) #foodbeast #eeeeeats #foodbabynytochicago A photo posted by Food Baby (@foodbabyny) on Apr 6, 2015 at 9:33pm PDT

Just feed me some Nutella Peanut Butter Lava Cake and I’ll be good.

10. But isn’t afraid to scream when food is just THAT GOOD.
