Daymon Patterson (aka Daym Drops) really likes to eat food. The YouTube vlogger’s most popular video has him enthusiastically chowing down on a Five Guys burger. His exuberance was so evident and ripe for celebration that The Gregory Brothers even created an auto-tune remix of the video
. Now, Patterson will share his passion for food on the Travel Channel, where he will be the face of a new show, Best Daym Takeout.Best Daym Takeout will feature Patterson as he travels across the country and eats a delicious smorgasbord of food wherever he goes. The show sounds similar to the Food Network’s Diners Drive-Ins, and Dives, except Patterson is far less spiky than Guy Fieri and is much less likely to receive a hilariously scathing review in the New York Times.
Here’s a video of the YouTube-to-TV personality expressing his excitement.
Patterson has also offered a quote:
“YouTube is my home and how we all grew together, so do not rent out my room anytime soon because I am here to STAY! I will do my very best to drop more reviews when I am not around the country filming for the show and again, sincerely everyone…..!!! THANK YOU !!! Let us show the world what YouTube Talent can REALLY do!!!!”
I like his attitude. Man, not bad for a guy whose main strength is an infectious joy for Five Guys and fast food.
