A person who spends a lot of time at home cooking and baking, and has achieved a pleasant amount of chubbiness. New York-based comedian/writer Tony Atamanuik mentioned this term on a Twitch gaming stream on October 19th, describing himself as “a fat, bread-baking little f-ing house cherub”. The image is especially humorous when applied to someone who isn’t babylike (the “putto” depicted in Renaissance artwork), but a well-built middle-aged man.
This is especially relevant to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic, when many people found themselves housebound and turned to the kitchen to pass the time (and compensate for the difficulty in obtaining goods like bread and cakes after many retailers and restaurants shut down). With access to gym facilities restricted, bicycles and exercise equipment at a premium, and some areas imposing curfews or shelter-in-place orders due to rising infections, the “Corona 20” weight gain was widely discussed on social media.
