Guilty Pleasure

About a year ago, after a decade of satellite service, we allowed cable television into our lives. Not surprising is that a number of programs we watch now are on channels we never got before. Our remote frequently stops at the Food Channel (aka food porn) and, believe it or not, the Travel Channel. One program in particular, ‘Man v. Food’, we find especially engrossing. In it, host Adam Richman takes on any number of eating challenges at famous eateries across the nation. I’m not sure what his fight record is, but it seems whenever I tune in he’s getting walloped by overindulging in something too spicy, too starchy or just plain impossible to finish in the time allotted.
