Malt Milkshake Challenge at Crown Candy Kitchen

In season 1 of Man v. Food theĀ  Malt Milkshake Challenge at Crown Candy Kitchen did not go over well with Adam. 5- 24 oz milkshakes in 30 minutes is quite a bit of dairy to be taking in. Have you ever tried to drink a gallon of milk in an hour? Well, if you haven’t I’m sure you still know the outcome, it’s not good. Not to mention the brain freeze you’re going to get from chugging ice cold milkshakes as fast as you can. My stomach is getting queasy just thinking about it. So if you’re not lactose intolerant and want a good ice cream challenge head on down to Crown Candy Kitchen in St. Louis and give the MaltĀ  Milkshake Challenge a run for it’s money.
