Worth It, launched in September of 2016, is [=BuzzFeed=]'s "flagship food show", starring [=BuzzFeed=] video producers Steven Lim and Andrew Ilnyckyj (Keith Habersberger of WebVideo/TheTryGuys originally co-hosted the program with Steven, but was replaced by Andrew after two episodes due to scheduling conflicts). The program also features video producer Adam Bianchi, who serves as the show's cinematographer and sometimes sound tech.

It also has a UK spin-off as well.

* ArcWords [=/=] CatchPhrase: At the beginning of every episode ("Today on Worth It, we are going to try three different [name of food] at three drastically different price points to find out which one is the most worth it at its price.") and at the end when one of them asks the others which meal was their Worth It Winner. This is usually asked by Steven, going so far that he interrupted Andrew once he started saying it.

* BigEater[=/=] RunningGag: Adam eats a bite of every tried food after Steven and Andrew did. He usually takes the largest bites or eats the leftovers, sometimes even receiving his own dish that is bigger than the others's servings. This is also constantly noted on throughout the show.

* ComfortFood[=/=] TrademarkFavouriteFood: Andrew's favourite food is pizza, with the show currently featuring two Pizza Episodes (one in Los Angeles and one in New York). The Los Angeles Episode is Andrew's debut episode. In the New York Episode Andrew even returns to his Worth It Winner of the episode and their first stop (Joe's Pizza) after saying he wants a "dessert pizza". Steven's food of choice is Sushi and Worth It's first episode naturally revolved around it.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Steven's been host of the show since the beginning, but Andrew only joined in the third episode of the first season.

* SirSwearsALot[=/=] ObligatorySwearing: Andrew curses plenty on the show, especially when something tastes really good, while Steven tries not to. He only swore on a few occasions, for example the Wine Episode when trying the meat at the second stop.

Each episode follows the "Worth It boys" as they try three iterations of a type of food or beverage (e.g. pizza, donuts, cocktails) at three price points (affordable, middle-tier, and luxury) to decide which is "the most worth it at its given price". Most of the featured restaurants have been located in the greater Los Angeles area, where BuzzFeed is based, although the gang has taken single- and multi-episode trips to other locations, such as their consecutive three-episode trips to Australia and Japan at the end of the third season.
