Man v. Food Nation

Adam is in Jackson, MS, for a true taste of home-style Southern cooking: from fall-off-the-bone BBQ to a comfort food buffet. He also coaches a vegetarian through a three-patty hamburger and fries called the Whammy Challenge.

Adam is in Charlotte, NC, to taste of a four-tier cheeseburger and glistening fried chicken. Then he coaches a college freshman in taking down the Big Eats challenge: 25 pulled pork sliders and fries adding up to five pounds.
