i honestly don't know how he can complete some of those challenges..some of that food is so damn hot/in large amounts

he seems like a really guinine guy tho, every place he ever visits the people seem to love him and he's got a great attitude

anyone from boston been to that place he visited with the worlds hottest pasta? My friend wants to try it but apparently they only serve once a year or somethin

yeah he seems like a legit guy. you would think that for the amount of food he eats he would be waaay fatter. i wonder if he gets ripped before he tries the food challenges

I love that show! It is destroying him though, in the first season he wasn't even fat. He finds the most amazing food though I wish I could travel around with him and eat all his left overs.

i try and remember the restaurants so next time im in that city i will go there, but i probably would eat the biggest thing on the menu like he usually does. the other stuff must be good too. kinda like anthony bourdain no reservations, if i ever go to that country i try and see what food he ate there, because anthony eats all the real authentic food the country has, not some tourist shit.

dude i used to watch that show so much. then stopped for like a year. just a few days ago saw him and he was like 100 lbs heavier hahaha. My predictions is that he is going to either die of choking or a heart attack within 10 yrs.

im sure he goes easy on food whenever he doesn't have to do the show, so its a pretty uneven diet but its not like he eats like that for breakfast lunch and dinner every day. i say hell make it to 70 because that show will end eventually and then hw wont have to stuf his face any more.

It's a complete shame that [lack of] "food culture" in America has evolved into shit like this.  Adam or whatever his name is, is a fucking moron and always thinks he's some culinary genius. His typical "I've held every job in the restaurant industry," is just  bunch of shit.  What he means is "I've cooked burgers, sandwiches AND pizzas".

Anthony Bourdain FTW!!!

No idea what you're talkin about man. Visit some small towns in the south. Southern food is life.

He came and talked at my college. He was really funny just like he is on the show, but has quite the mouth. He exercises twice a day in order to make an attempt to keep his body in check. I actually got to talk to him 1 on 1 for a minute after and he seemed real cool

This guy was a huge asshole. We saw them filming at Rutgers one night at the greasetrucks. One of my friends was kind of calling him out, in a friendly manner, for not being able to finish the sandwich. He then became irate, and just in general, an asshole.

wow, you mean he got pissed off because someone was heckling him while he was trying to film his show?! Shit!



I don't like the show because it disgusts me. When I have watched it, he annoys me with his habits. He comes within 2 bites of finishing this gigantic steak, and suddenly can't do it. Yea, he's just eaten 12lbs of beef, yet 2 tiny bites is whats going to do him in? Nonsense.

No, they werent filming at the time. We werent heckling him either. It was more a playful poke at him, but you would think he would have a sense of humor about it.

I say that eventually, his bones will begin to rot and whatnot, and then the first time he hucks a cliff skiing, he kinda melts... Anyway, the best thing about this guy is hes always creeping on the local fat chick bartender... Whatever, at least he lived a long, fulfilling life, right?

Legit met this guy, and idk what your talking about but he was wicked nice. I was new in town and he told me where it was good to eat and just super nice and helpful. Loves food and loves his job (who wouldnt though)

I'm sure he's nice, or that's what I've heard.  I mean it's pretty apparent that he just gets really stoned before his job.

he may be a big guy, but the fact that he's not unbelievably obese is incredible. i read somewhere that when he's going around the country he works out multiple times a day to not end up that way. and i can only imagine that when the show's not filming, he probably eats really light, healthy foods, to at the very least ease up on his bowels
