Does anyone watch Man vs Food?



Recommended Posts

Its a show on the Travel Channel that stars Adam, a food challenger that travels the US taking food challenges. Like. 4 lbs buger with 2 lbs of fries that he has to finish in 30 minutes. Or finishing 50 super hot wings in 30 minutes. Ot how bout the 6 lbs of deep fried turkey nuts he eats in 60 minutes?

Today I saw him finish a 9 lb steak platter in 1 sitting. He's successful in about 90% of the challenges. It grosses me out, makes my tummy hurt, but at the same time it pulls me in. He's a little chubby but by@no means obese. Not sure if he eats at any other time.

I ate about 2 oz too much last nite and paid for it on the toilet (sorry, tmi). I can't imagine finishing 9 lbs of food. Can u imagine? Toward the end of any challenge, u see him getting a little sick, mouth start watering, sweating. Not sure if he ever vomits (of course it never shows that part).

I think my tummy would rupture at about 1/10th of his challenges. And I'm being totally serious when I say RUPTURE.

Anyone else watch this show? Like I said, it makes me cringe, sometimes making my stomach turn but it always pulls me in....

I used to watch it.

I hope the tv networks pay for his medications & eventual wls.

I know that they recently changed the focus of the show to him coaching others & not doing the challenges himself.

He's actually looks really good right now. He was on THE Soup a few weeks ago. I like that show because I love his personality. He lost weight. I think he's doing a different show now though.

I can't watch it at all - none of those shows where they eat massive portions of food. They make me feel incredibly ill.

I hope that Man Vs. food guy looks better. I caught part of an episode more than a year ago and watched him red-faced and sweating while he ate enough food for six people and had the sad thought that one day he was going to die of a heart attack while eating a sandwich the size of a bus.

I used to watch it and enjoyed it. Today and I can't watch it because it nauseates me just to watch him eat that much food. Then I think about his arteries! I did actually see him go outside a restaurant and throw up one time. I have to say my favorite thing on that show was the ginormous donut they always showed!!
