Adam Richman with the guys from Kuby's Sausage House.
​ Adam Richman, the Travel Channel's Food Coma Correspondent, spent some time in Dallas recently, stuffing his face at Kuby's Sausage House (which we profiled a while back), Sonny Bryan's Smokehouse and Sprouts SpringRoll & Pho.

It's at that last locale where someone (but not Richman? Isn't that the whole point of the show?) takes on the restaurant's Pho Challenge: "30 minutes to complete over 5 pounds of a Vietnamese soup filled with meat, noodles, and broth," according to the Travel Channel.

The episode airs Wednesday at 8 p.m.

It's because Richman is ashen and dying from the shit he's eaten over the last two years. He's lucky if he makes 49.

I Think they wanted to evolve the show. It could be possible that Adam Richman encouraged the idea of doing this although he does stuff before during and after the show to avoid this risk.

The current version of the show is called "Man v. Food Nation" and has locals, not the host, doing the crazy challenges. Since "Man v. Food" was never intended to be a battle to the death for host Adam Richman, this change is probably for the best.

The show is actually been re-titled Man vs Food Nation for this season. This will be the 6th or 7th episode. Way to stay on top of the story Joe.

Why the fuuuuck is he at Sonny Bryan's?!?!??! How embarrassing for Dallas that he didn't go to Pecan Lodge (AT LEAST)

Totally agree. Sony Bryan's has been on several food shows, and I just don't get it. SB's is to BBQ what Olive Garden is to Italian. *sigh*

One word: publicist.  SB's clearly has one, Pecan Lodge (and other local BBQ's) clearly don't.
