I just don't find it amusing or interesting. The rest of the show is great though.
Since the late nineties there have been dozens of shows on the food network in which people dine out. Man vs Food is the Travel Channel's highest rated show, the challenge works...

Yep. I don't need or want a sideshow when I'm out for a meal.

I do enjoy the show, and seeing what different cities have to offer when it comes to unique food specialties.

I can (but usually don't) eat insane amounts and actually considered seriously going on a show like this, I would take some beating. If there is a show like this downunder I would be interested in hearing about it.
