Anyone else watching it? And am I very strange if I admit that I am slightly disgusted... it's like watching a car crash, you know you should move on but you keep starring

    At the moment I am watching him stuffing his face with some meassive calzone like pizza... all I can say is bloody hell. I think prior to that he was eating cornisch oasty with chilly and cheese... I can't even eat a cornish pasty lol

    I feel bad for that guy.... glad they changed the format of the show a bit to save him from killing himself after another couple years of that.

    Personally I love it, also my guilty pleasure

    I wouldnt dream of putting that food down my throat but some stuff looks so nice I enjoy watching him eat instead of me and putting on the weight haha...

    Always makes me think of how he never seems to put on weight surely someone eating that much should be watching the weight increase at sometime !

    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.

    Crazy show anyway, pretty entertaining.

    I wish his jackets fit better tho.

    I love this show!! It's only used to be on pay tv, but they have now moved it to the normal channels (Dave, for the UK'ers)!

    I think we are still on the very early series, but it's quite addictive viewing, but sometimes quite disturbing :laugh:

    I love watching MvF, Adam is so charismatic and the food always looks delicious. Now Bizarre Foods...that's another story. Lol!

    The show has caused him to gain so much weight though, comparing Season 1 to the more recent episodes, so good thing he has MvF Nation so he doesn't have to take all the challenges. Lol!

    The show allows me to look at all that salty, fatty, greasy deliciousness without me shoving that food down my mouth.

    He came to my school once and did the challenge! I got an autograph from him! :)

    Oooh the Hot Wings look the best! I love eating anything with Chilli so hot that it feels like the inside of your stomach walls are being burnt! :laugh:

    I too love the show, and the food looks sooooo good. But I couldn't 2 pounds of food, let alone the amounts he eats. Now the spicy challenges, I would give them a shot for sure.

    Hahaha, I have to admit, there are a couple of things I would give a try, it's just the sheer amount of food that I find weird - although I probably would have done the ice cream challenge ^^

    I love that show, only because I think Adam Richman is damn sexy. I wanna find a guy who looks like him. :love:

    Ever since seeing a specific episode, my goal in life is to complete the grilled cheese challange.
