Man v Food Nation is in full swing and this week we got to see a guy take on a monster ice cream sundae. If you haven’t watched the episode yet I’m going to ruin it for  you, sorry. This guy was extremely impressive in his attempt to take down 15 scoops of ice cream, plus toppings, in an hour. He was so impressive in fact, that the only reason he failed is because he was too fast. If you’ve ever heard that saying that you can’t drink a gallon of milk in an hour, well this is the same idea. There’s just too much dairy there to consume in under an hour, but he would have had it had he not eaten 90% of the sundae in 15 minutes. Either way it was an impressive showing and I have no doubt that if he tried it again and paced himself he’d have no problem finishing it off.

This may be one of the most recognized burger challenges in the country if only for the picture above of the gentlemen getting ready to devour the Fat Teddy Burger. I remember when I first saw that picture I thought that there is no way that is real, it must have been photoshopped, but boy was I wrong. The Fat Teddy is indeed real and you too can attempt this 5 lb burger challenge by heading out to Jeffersontown, KY to Chubby Ray’s Original Louisville Pizza Co.
