anyone else addicted to this? or are we (dh, dd & I) just sad old losers....great prog' although hard at times as i have high cholesterol and eat a 'safe' (boring) supper usually whilst watching adam putting away a pound of cheese, bacon, fries & burgers......it's so bad that it is good if you get my meaning

Ooooh I love this programme, it's definitely so good it's bad :)

bitofcheese · 27/06/2012 16:55

i'm just on the net reading a Guardian journ' interview. there is something cute & clever about adam, so likeable. i love the way he cuddles the chef after taking a bite of something he particularly loved, really funny. also, the background audience going mental trying to encourage him to eat the food, lunatics :D

We love it in our house too! I still can't believe how much foods he puts away.

kittybloom · 27/06/2012 17:18

DH introduced me to it and we love it! Although I can't help thinking that the challenges may have caught up with Adam recently in the waistline dept. But I still heart him anyway.

CherryBlossom27 · 27/06/2012 17:19

I love this programme :) I told DH Adam is going to be dh2

fat sweaty americans encouraging gluttoney and obesity, yep fascinating entertainment

slothprincess · 27/06/2012 17:27

I love love love this programme too. But me and DH are puzzled by the fact that Adam always seems to wear a jacket, even when he's sweating buckets at some improbably hot chilli challenge!

NettoSuperstar · 27/06/2012 17:29

We love this too, but Man v Food nation isn't as good.
Apparently Adam had to stop doing the challenges as food was winning!

We also like Diners, Drive ins and Dives.

I love Adam and Guy Fierri of triple D but it really makes me hungry sometimes

RedBlanket · 27/06/2012 17:38

He's my latest Wierd crush.
Love man vs food, seeing him eat so much is completely gross yet strangely compelling. And yes by the end of the series the food definitely won.

WarriorQueen · 27/06/2012 17:39

I love that show.

Love love love it. But I love American food and it makes me drool watching it

NettoSuperstar · 27/06/2012 17:41

I have one of the Triple D recipe books, and have tried a few dishes from it.

WarriorQueen · 27/06/2012 17:43

I have the Guy Fieri books too his double cooked fries are lush - making myself hungry

GwendolineMaryLacey · 27/06/2012 17:56

Love it. Funnily, the challenges were my least favourite bit. I'm just a pig who is on a diet and Adam is troughing all my favourite foods (pizza, burgers, great big lumps of meat etc) so it's porn to me :o

RedBlanket · 27/06/2012 18:00

Is it bad that the DCs can recite his opening speech word perfect?

bitofcheese · 27/06/2012 18:03

the food always looks so good as i naturally gravitate towards loving shite food as opposed to healthy stuff (which is what i eat due to health reasons) but it is so hard, the site of the mounds of melted cheese, ribs, fries, bacon etc. a veggie's nightmare. adam seems to cuddly but cute and so passionate/genuine, just a nice guy. i have only just started watching it so no idea where we are up to series wise, we see it most evenings on Dave between 8 & 9pm (two episodes), i must add that he is beginning to look somewhat larger than the first few episodes we saw a couple of weeks ago.

Almost everything he eats on that show looks so unappealing, the sweet stuff looks nice and he sees a few italian and seafood places but for the most part it's one burger drowning in a tonne of fake cheese after another.

bitofcheese · 27/06/2012 18:04

DS1 and I love it. I'm on a diet and keep drooling though.

ginmakesitallok · 27/06/2012 18:15

I love the programme and adam too - but the food mostly looks absolutely gross. I've only been to the US once - and the food was shite.

HandMadeTail · 27/06/2012 18:19

I hate this show!

I think it's obscene to make a show about eating too much when some people haven't got enough to eat, and conversley there are such huge problems with obesity in the developed world.

I know, I know, I'm a sanctimonious prig, but sorry, I just don't get it.

Victoria3012 · 27/06/2012 18:20

Another fan of man v food, I love it Smile

fivegomadindorset · 27/06/2012 18:21

I physically feel sick when I watch it, and think no wonder the Americans are so fat.
