Nuggets are plain and cost more per nugget, the fewer you buy.

I imagine this would come under this rule:

No inflated pricing McDs (airports)

Solid idea though, was all for it until I saw that rule.

Since drinks don't count, would it be smart to buy ice cream, let it melt and drink it?

Trying to fit what an average American eats in a week into just 36 hours will be tough.

So many comments like this. $15 seems like a lot, but it needs to scale properly. Do you think any human can eat 67 sponge cakes in 36 hours? Assuming no, it's a net negative in terms of money spent per food gotten.

Nice job, Dick!

He can only puke once? One of many mistakes in the bet.

He's going to ruin his health, probably long term too.

This $890.80 burger seemed promising for a minute, until a pricing error was corrected. The accurate charge is only $24.89:

The line of $1k is just so ****ing far from reality of what can be done with ACTUAL FOOD ITEMS from the menu

Except for this rule from the bet

At least $300 on hot foods (fries, burgers, chicken). At least $50 of that has to be burgers!

And wtf is Noori thinking. Just donate to charity or something when going in and you have no chance. At least that way you get a tax deductible receipt.

I was thinking it was a much smaller bet and an easy fold.

Strange prop indeed.

He's gonna eat $30 of items in two hours, then be full for six hours straight and realize he completely ****ing goofed. If the bet ever even happens

This is what happens when people have no real concept of caloric intakes and food voulme

how much do they charge for a single tomato slice or a side of lettuce? i know the a la carte add-ons would be the most expensive calories just not sure if only eating al la carte add ons is within the confines of the rules or the spirit of the proposition.
