[QUOTE=jubjubrsx;1318520291]to each their own, tbh I kind of wish they had a 1lb butterfinger bar.[/QUOTE]Was thinking this too, would wreck a Butterfinger.
Also on the 1 pound candy topic, saw a 1 pound Russel Stover's Chocolate Bar- was unaware they made one. It was only $5.99 too which is a few dollars cheaper than the rest. Didn't bother getting it since don't care for that much plain chocolate but may get it later...
A 1 pound Reese's Crunch, Kit Kat, or (and this one would blow my mind) a White Chocolate Reese's Cup would be great to see.

oh man I would so destroy a 1lb kit kat, although since its mostly wafer could you imagine how big that would be? either have to be so tall you couldnt get it in your mouth or the size of that 5lb hershey bar. you have seen the 2lb rice crispy treats though right?

you could also make reese cups at home for much cheaper than in the store too... Mostly anything out there you can do. It just comes down to "Convenience"

Did the same for NSCA National con every year its out in Vegas. This is my go to spot for gym training while in town. Talked to a few of the newer pros every time, the most humble and down to earth athletes you will ever meet IMO. The overseas guys more so. I think they still just humbled to be in US competing on US soil where BBing is more adaptable and accepted.

[B]Final Thoughts:[/B]
Tonight I took on Citizen Kitchen & Bar’s “24 Sliders in 24 Minutes” Challenge!
The challenge was to eat 24 hour of the restaurants sliders in 24 minutes, and I would get my name on the wall of fame (only four previous winners) and I would get the meal free. If I failed the challenge? I’d have to fork over $40 and I’d be put on the wall of shame!
[b][u] Let me just start by saying this was by FAR my hardest challenge yet..[/b][/u]
I came into this challenge knowing that the BREAD would be tough.. and oh it was! I watched “Furious Pete’s” video this morning of himself taking down the challenge in 19 minutes flat.. and I wanted to beat that. Unfortuantely, I wasn’t able to beat his time due to not preparing properly and after a night of light drinking.
After seeing pete struggle with this challenge on video this morning, I contemplated even doing it.. but I figured I was IN LAS VEGAS! It was time to do something epic, and “push my limits”.
The bread came out hard and VERY tough. It was WAY too doughy and thick and was like eating wall plaster. The patties were the opposite, absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. On the other hand, EACH slider came with an obsene amount of pickles and onions.. (which I despise). The HARDEST part of the challenge was having to do ALL of this in ONLY 24 minutes (as I am NOT a speed eater).
Proud to say that I powered through, and I managed to end up being the [b][u]FIFTH person to ever complete the challenge out of dozens! Time was just shy of 23 minutes! And I earned my way up on the wall of fame! [/b][/u]. Again, this was my hardest challenge I’ve ever done. I’d estimate that it was between 5-6lbs of food.. within a 24 minute period! Other than the time limit, I definitely think I could’ve done it quicker if I had paced myself at the beginning I took down WAY too much bread, way too fast at the start of the challenge. Which filled me up very quickly!
[color=red][b]Looking forward to the next one! [/b][/color]

Congrats man!!! Not saying that you are little or anything, but I bet the employees there were like "Yeah right, like this skinny guy is going to put back this much food in this amount of time." NICE WORK!!!!! ;)

No, literally the owner said those exact words. "It was cool seeing pete do it! You're definitely the smallest guy out of all of them".
Still makes me chuckle when people try to base ones stomach capacity on their body size.
nice job. do you enjoy them for the challenge more than the food?
[QUOTE=Domicron;1319558771]nice job. do you enjoy them for the challenge more than the food?[/QUOTE]
Not really sure how to answer this, I'll just say I enjoy both. :)
