Would You Eat Everything In This Vending Machine for $750?

My friend Prasanth is going to try… His co-workers bet him that he could not eat everything in this vending machine (pictured above) for $750 during the course of a normal workday (9am to 4pm). They agreed to give him incremental payments: $100 for the first two rows, and then $100 for each row after that. If he chews all of the gum and eats all of the mints, he gets $750. At first glance it seems easy enough, but he has to consume over 6,000 calories in 7 hours – approximately 1 item every 11.5 minutes. Oh yeh, there are some other rules: he can only throw up once, and he can use the bathroom as many times as he wants. Our other friend Kavitha said “Duuude, thats sooo easy. I can do it, no problem” – so Prasanth said he’d give her $750 if she could finish one of each item from 9:30am to 4pm (all or nothing). I’m going to be sick just thinking about it… Anyways, it all goes down today. I’ll let you know how it goes once I get the update. *Side Note*: I like how there are healthy choices in green… haha.
