Some may think I wish to talk about the programme, in a since yes but not from a TV point of view.
If anyone has never seen or heard of this show, its about This guy travels across USA looking for epic and unique "big food"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_v._Food
Has anyone seen any epic or Unique big food in there local area? Or special creations that were made just for the area?

I've seen Man v Food on some satellite channel or other, which consists of a fat American eating large portions of unhealthy food.
Reality TV I think they call it.

It's made by The Food Network (edit: oops it's actually The Travel Network!) in America, but it's on UKTV's Good Food Channel and not Food Network UK.
He tackles different types of food - not necessarily OTT-sized ones, but different types of spicyness, hotness etc. Mondays at 9pm, but it's on during the day as well. Quite interesting but I get the feeling it's more of an entertainment show and not a serious show about food.
If he manages to tackle a food, or a challenge set by the restaurant he visits that makes the dish he's been talking about during the programme, then it's another point to man. If he loses it's another point to food.
