I like the show, not so much for the food challenges rather just to see some family owned places and their specialties.

I would really like to do the bucket of wings in 30 mins...I think it was somewhere in Colorado. Although it wasn't the challenge, I took down the Thurmanator in Cbus.

I like the show... I love eat and try new things so I like it overall, and I can throw down some groceries pretty well... but I get half sick watching him gorge himself. There are many very, very cool restaraunts out there to explore.

Definitely enjoy the show. I'm not really that interested in the actual challenges either. I just like to see the various restaurants and their specialties.

Sometimes I think Adam is pretty funny, but he can be annoying at times too. Doesn't really bother me enough to stop watching though. I've seen every episode except the one in New Orleans during Season 1.

People I work with rave about this place. One of the owners took his wife there close to Thanksgiving and they had a grilled cheese with turkey, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce and some other stuff in between two pieces of bread.

As far as Man v Food, my girlfriend and I are waiting for Adam to drop dead during a challenge. Dude has almost doubled in size (ala Tyler Florence, Rachel Ray, Guy Fieri, etc) since he started this show.

Several of the Food Network personalities have actually lost weight recently. I'm sure it has to be hard...there's the chef/food aspect but there's also the amount of work and traveling they do. Makes it difficult to exercise on a regular basis.

Oh, I'm sure it is but I just thought it very odd that as soon as a lot of them got a taste of success they ballooned up. I've heard that a few of them have dropped weight but Guy Fieri and Adam (not Food Network) are going to be needing their own zip codes soon. They need to buy some bands, a pullup bar and P90X. ;) It travels well.

I've been to Melt a couple times, very good food. I'm looking forward to watching this one to see what other local places he decides to hit up.

My family was just talking about him putting on the lbs over the weekend. They brought up the gourge factor, but Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi don't seem to have a problem staying reasonable.
