Man vs. Food - (2008 TV Series)


In Man vs. Food, we follow the Travel Channel's Adam Richmond as he travels from town to town, city to city and takes on their food challenges.

Confession: I dig this show. I haven't watched it as much as I used to, but I still watch whenever I come across it. Every challenge is different, and its eye opening when you consider how many different restaurants offer these type of challenges.

Examples include:
-A bucket of 50BBQ wings.
-A 16oz burrito
-4 16oz milkshakes
-A bowl of the hottest curry
-1 giant burger that was actually made up of 6 patties + fries

And nearly every challenge comes with both a time limit and a wall of shame for the losers.

Adam Richmond is a fat man and he does what fat men do. Eat. This show is awesome for that reason alone. There is a variety of food challenges presented to him and he is more than willing to tackle them. As a bonus, watching this show gives you an idea of where to go and what to eat if you should ever travel to these
places.

 
Mmm...Sweet Gluttony Goodness


Man Vs. Food airs on the Travel Channel. You can also find it on Netflix Instant Watch.
Man vs Food. Watch. Eat. Live.

Violence? Only in the way he assaults his food.
Explosions? Probably plenty after filming.
Nudity? Naked burgers perhaps.

Food Wars


One of the best shows you're not watching? Maybe not. But Food Wars is pretty entertaining and Camile Ford is not only hot she's actually kind of entertaining.


The Food Wars are often fought between neighboring restaurants who just happen to serve the the same specialty food and they both claim to have the best version. More often than not, these rivalries are the result of family disputes. In the Chicago Pizza battle, 2 brothers made Jumbo Slices of pizza, 1 changed the recipe against the others wishes and opened his own spot, and thus a food rivalry was born.

Again, its not the best show, and its still admittedly finding its legs, but if you're a foodie or if you like to travel, this show will definitely give you a few ideas on where to go and what to eat.
