  • This one has been on my bucket list for a while. You know what isn't on there? Getting absolutely stitched up...
    This challenge consists of one 3lb slice of cake, a burger, onion rings, fried pickle and a portion of fries...or that's usually what it consists of...I think I just got lucky...
    Finish inside thirty minutes (from the moment the food hits your table) and you win the $60 meal for free, along with a winner's t-shirt. Fail and you get to just sit there and lament your life choices.

    @BreakingBreadPD - A good old fashioned chin wag with my co-host Josh Gudgeon, in a studio that looks so plush it makes it look like we know what we're doing.

    ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS & ADDITIONAL INFO:
    Q: How come you don’t get fat?
    A: I eat like this for 1 hour of a 168 hour long week. In simple terms, I eat at caloric maintenance over the course of time, meaning I don’t gain weight. If you're interested in learning more, see the ‘But How Come You're Not Fat' and 'It Was Just A Normal Day...' videos available on my channel.
    Q: Don’t you worry about your health?
    A: Not in particular. I’m active. I eat nutrient dense foods five days a week. And, I get quarterly bloods done, amongst other health checks.

    It might be a bit of a swindle, but it sure makes for an entertaining video!
    Thanks for joining me for the eighth and final part of the Florida series folks! I hope you enjoyed watching it as much as I enjoyed filming it, thanks for your always dedicated support and it won’t be long until the next one!
    There’ll be no video on Sunday, since I took a bit of time off to recuperate after arriving home, but I’ll be back with another episode on Thursday; back home in good old Blighty! Catch you then :)

      Other than the fact that Beard was treated poorly, why would you plan to go to Florida to eat at a chain restaurant that already exists in the UK? Edited to add: I don't know if you're from the UK - I'm just guessing it based on the punctuation and use of the word "holiday." In any case, Wikipedia says that there are 185 Hard Rock Cafés in 74 countries. No matter where you're from, I'm still not sure why you'd plan to eat at a chain restaurant that exists all over the world while you're in Florida.

      ​@@zips112 Obviously, anyone can go do what they want to do on vacation and buy what they want to buy. I lived in Florida for years and have lived in other tourist destinations since then. There are lots of great local restaurants and local chains to check out. Even before seeing how poorly Beard appeared to have been treated, Hard Rock Cafés and similar restaurants targeted at tourists never seemed to have a reputation for having great food or wonderful staff - the staff knows that most visitors will never come back a second time. I think the Hard Rock Café souvenir t-shirts are a great way for the business to make money, but in general, I'm not into paying $30 or so for a t-shirt so I can serve as a walking advertisement for someone else's business. You're welcome to spend your hard-earned money however you want, though. Have a great trip! (PS - I'm not up on the best local burgers in Orlando since things have changed a lot, but whenever I'm in Florida, I always have to get a chicken tender sub from a Publix supermarket - headquarters in Lakeland - and eat it at the beach. I also like to try to make it to Tijuana Flats, which has its headquarters in Maitland. My partner always has to try the newest seasonal beer from Cigar City, which is from Tampa. Korean barbecue has exploded in the US in the past few years, so once you get to the US, I'd ask for recommendations for that, too. There's a ton of cattle in Florida, so the quality of beef is generally pretty good. If we're there in February/ March, we try to make it to Plant City for some strawberries. If you can find a good dive bar, the thing to try is alligator nuggets.)

We've done all the big restaurants out there and the Hard Rock and Planet Hollywood were the worst, the latter especially. Very mediocre food and expensive too ($170 for 2 adults and 2 kids 15 years ago for nothing special!), plus it took an HOUR to get our starters and it was only half full of people. Then, to cap it all they expect to get a 20% tip at the end! Well I begrudgingly gave 10% because that's the max in the UK, and the waitress should have been grateful to get that!

Losing $60 is a much bigger deal than losing tens of thousands in future trade, so how can we conspire to screw him out of a handful of change that will be easily compensated for in less than an hour of ad revenue?

    That's so wrong. It makes people from the uk think that we here in the US are dishonest. The people in charge of the kitchen should be ashamed of such bs behavior.

    The cake looks hard as f**k and I'm really not gonna comment on the fries. Pretty obvious they wanted no one be able to complete this challenge. Huge kudos to you, mate!

    I agree...the fix was in. This isn't the only time when a person of any kind of fame attempted a contest, it was made harder. It's happened a couple of times on Man Vs Food.

    I think it's a real shame that in the face of defeat, Hard Rock decided that the house always wins by stacking the odds so ridiculously, and obviously, in their favour.

    A years worth of fries, a cake you need to cut with a chainsaw and a deep fried pickle... Beard was sabotaged from the start. Especially with the time starting as soon as the food hit the table.
