Thanks to a viral video showing off his unusually stylish meat slicing technique and now legendary salt sprinkle, the Turkish butcher and restauranteur Nusret Gökçe shot to fame as "Salt Bae." But thanks to a series of mistakes, missteps, and plain old bad decisions, the internet's love affair with Gökçe proved short-lived. In this episode of Weird History Food, we're peeling back the hype to take a look at the bizarre rise and fall of the world’s most dramatic chef.
