Ridiculous. I mean, seriously. A seven and a half pound burger, plus side dishes? And he just swallows it on down in less than an hour. What a beast!
I don’t know how many of you watch the show “Man v. Food“, but the shows host Adam is seriously a food guy. He can simply put stuff away. From monster burgers to six and a half pound milkshakes; crazy. You have to wonder though, mainly because the Travel Channel never shows it, what happens when he gets “too” full? That’s all off camera stuff I guess, but I can’t imagine all that food sitting well. Especially the hot stuff.
The hot stuff is a tricky thing. From challenges with six wings to others with twelve. As much as he can put some of them down, there are some he just can’t handle. The tears pour down his face. The sweat more than beads up. It’s all that capsaicin building up to critical levels. Really, we aren’t supposed to eat that stuff.
That’s the deal. We aren’t supposed to be putting those things into our bodies. It’s too hot. It hurts too much. Over time, we will eventually either cause ourselves to callous, or worse, end up with holes everywhere inside.
1 Corinthians 6:18 // 2 Timothy 2:22
The things we are supposed to stay away from are sometimes the things we are attracted to the most, and it’s these things that can end up hurting us more than anything else.
So instead of putting ourselves into a position to get burned, let’s just stay away from the things that will end up calloused, and full of holes.
