    my old house mate and I are both quite health & fitness focussed, but we LOVED watching MvF!!! It was like out guilty pleasure - and I feel like I was see the food look delicious, and then see it get gross so I didn't want to eat it!

    same with Epic Meal Time... has anyone seen these webisodes? I love teh calorie counter they have on these!

    This is one of my favourite "Epic Meal Time" videos, http://goo.gl/AyhAl .
  • I love that show! I'm all like "SOOOOO GOING TO AMERICA TO DO THESE CHALLENGES.... and spending the other 23 hours a day in the gym".

    Seriously though, I want to try some of those food challenges.

    Some of it looks freaking delicious, but then as he's eating it turns to a disgust feeling. lol.

    But Just one day Id love to consume greasy fatty gross food so lovingly with no guilt. *sigh*

    I watch it occasionally, quite like seeing some of the challenges.

    Does anyone know if there's anywhere online that has the recipes for what's on the show? My bf loves ManVFood and is trying to gain weight as well so he loves stuff like that.

    My hubby's staying in a hotel for the next 6 weeks for military training and he's loving the cable TV... he said man vs. food is one of his new favorite shows! He also said I wouldn't like it. :laugh:

    I watch Man v. Food and think to myself "I can do that, and eat dessert" <_<

    Search for furiouspete on youtube. He makes Mr Richmond look like a total amature. I do enjoy mVf, but there are so many repeats now it's hard to find a new one to watch

    agreed :)

    I love Man V Food! He's such a character.

    Furious Pete is awesome! I saw him eat a whole jar of vegemite. What a looney LOL

    Does anyone know if Adam was told he needed to stop the extreme eating by his doctor or something?

    He started to look bad as the last episodes were aired... then they changed it to "Food vs Nation" so he doesn't eat the food anymore, but people around the country take the challenges instead or something. Seems like maybe he had health problems or something from the binges??

    If you watched it starting in season 1 you can see he is getting a lot fatter as the show progresses!

    I love this show, adam is very funny..but it does have a very dangerous undertone to it in terms of good nutritional habits...not so much from adam's gluttony but from those morons cheering him on!!!

    I know a guy in the states who saw him eat a (5lb?) breakfast as a challenge, and it turned out the place was right around the corner from him.

    So he went there and knew he could easily finish the challenge he saw from the show.

    However, the ACTUAL amount of food was about 4x what they gave the guy on man vs. food (he had comparison pictures of the episode vs what he got) and I don't think he ate half.

    Innnnnnteresting....

    Great show! I would love that job, but I don't see it as a 30 year career.

    I have never actually seen the show. I watched his show Amazing Eats yesterday. I could watch Travel channel, Food Network, and the Cooking channel all day though! I rarely watch TV, but if I had the time I would be watching those three stations for sure.
