The Salt Bae Cake Video Featured Our Comment Of The Week

If you've been on the internet over the past month or so I probably don't need to tell you about 'Salt Bae'.

It initially stemmed from a video uploaded to social media of Turkish chef Nusret Gökçe carving a steak and sprinkling salt over it. Since the video was uploaded, Nusret has become something of an online sensation. In fact, I'm going to put it out there and say that so far it's the best meme of 2017.

Clearly we weren't the only ones thinking that, as we managed to track down a cake maker who was equally appreciative. In fact, they'd decided to ply their craft and create a cake that commemorated the moment Salt Bae first sprinkled that salt.

We posted a video of it being made on our Facebook page and I probably don't need to tell you that that shit went off.

If you didn't see the clip the first time, take a look at it here...

Now, it's one thing making a great video, but everyone knows that as great as the content may be, anything we post to Facebook is doubly as good when the comments add to the hilarity.

Here are some of the best responses we got to the post...

Abbie was pretty serious about getting some cake.

Akash pointed out what made the video so great.

Scott sounded like he should be in charge of planning the wedding.

But there was only one possible comment of the week as far as we were concerned and that came from a man named Ashley Parry.

It rightly had received 1,677 Facebook likes at the time of writing, although perhaps it would have been more reflective of its content had it received 420.

A parody of the initial Salt Bae meme, photoshopped in the place of Nusret Gökçe, is 45-year-old hip-hop star Snoop Dogg. In case you aren't aware, Snoop publicly admits he smokes 81 blunts a day. Hilarious.
