Man vs Food

Adam Richman


Man vs Food is one of my favourite shows and the main reason I want to visit America. The programme is hosted by the lovable and charismatic Adam Richman who loves food more than anything. On his journey around America he makes pit stops at the best diners, restaurants and fast food deli's around and samples their dishes. From steaks to ice cream Adam eats them all, but they must be SUPER SIZE.

My trips to Harvester pale in comparison to the meals served up to Adam. Yet, it is the challenge at the end that demonstrates who is the victor, Man or Food.

Pizzas the size of car wheels, nachos weighing more than a new born baby and cakes that would give you a heart attack. Adam loves em' all. Not once does he say, 'Yuck, pass me a salad!'.
My favourite challenges however are the spicy, hot, ghost chilli laden meals where Adam must eat it all without passing out.  He is regularly seen sweating and crying his way through the wings or burger, yet it is great viewing!

But who does win, man or food? Well, if Adam's weight after several seasons is anything to go by food is definitely winning. But, I bet Adam loves it.

Promise Blog Revisited

So, have I kept my promise blog?

Errrm yes and no.

I have been applying for jobs since the last blog. But is it my fault that nothing has come through yet?
I need some more time to visit another country I think!
Uh Oh no books have yet been read, but I have purchased more to add to my massive pile.
I have brought a one sentence a day book and have filled it out. I'm rather proud!
Major fail on the clothes front. A shopping bag is glaring at me as I type.
I have being saying yes more. I've met new people and have been to a festival. Get Me. But I have also been assertive. No means no people!!
I am most proud of this one. I have cooked more for my family. A quiche and a pasta bake. Move over Nigella.
I am also easting slightly healthier. Well, I had three salads last week. That counts.

I'd give myself a B- . Must try harder!
