Man v. Food . . .mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I think I may have missed my calling, well maybe half my calling. The new Travel Channel show (yes, I've now begun watching the Travel Channel - so long are the days of sticking below 50 on the cable box) Man v. Food pits Adam Richman against mighty portions. While I could maybe come close to eating half of what he eats, it wouldn't be a bad job to have - eat unhealthy crap while traveling around the country.

I stumbled upon this show and have watched several episodes: 1)The Sasquatch Burger, essentially a burger the size of a tire and 2) Gino's Deep Dish in Chicago. In each episode Adam checks out the local eats then tries to dominate an enormous amount of food - he's batted .500 since I began watching. Def a must watch for people who enjoy eating food, television, and saying "Sasquatch."

Various locations include Pittsburgh, Columbus, Austin, and Atlanta.

Check it out on Wednesdays at 10 PM

Top Chef Season 5

So, I started watching Top Chef a couple seasons ago and was hooked. Who doesn't love chef's creating whacked out food, fighting, and then being told who's good and who's bad? Well, I just saw that the next season is approaching (Nov) and that Foo Fighters (of Paul Brown Stadium Fame) will be one of the guests, along with much disliked and embroiled Martha Stewart and Rocco DiSpirito.
