Man v. Food (Vending Machine Edition) – Update #2

Haha… here’s the second update to Prasanth’s quest to eat 1 of each item in the vending machine. You can see the previous update here.

As of 1:33pm this afternoon:

Prasanth: “So now I’m at 3 kcal and roughly 3 g’s of sodium in 3.5 hours. Here’s my dilemma: I have 3 more hours to go, but I’m not sure I could get through the entire next row in that amount of time. Should I even try? I don’t want to get 1/2 way through and then get nothing.”

Amar: “Go big, or go home.”

Kavitha: “I agree with Amar…”

Prasanth: : “Thanks coach; that’s all I needed to hear. Also, this is far and away the most disgusting thing I’ve ever done. And keep in mind that I’ve been to Mexico with Roshan…”


As of 3:30 this afternoon:

Prasanth: Little over an hour to go… I feel bad for whoever has to sleep next to me tonight.”

As of 4:00 this afternoon:

And that is all folks… Looks like he made it through 3.5 rows at 3,920 calories. Haha. I believe he made like $200. Ranvy heard from him via text message:

Ranvy Singh: “Are you alive?”

Prasanth: “Barely. Or extremely. Depends on your definition.”

Prasanth: “Let me just say, of all the humbling experiences I’ve had in my life – bowling, being forced to take anger management classes, bowling, losing to TJ at anything, bowling – this was by far the humbling-est thing I’ve ever done. I don’t know what feels worse, the 4 lbs of salt and sugar and corn by-products rotting in my gut, or the dark specter of defeat looming over my head (but probably the 4 lbs of crap).”
