    These are the good challenges. They actually use real flavour and heat, not just flavourless extract that anybody can do.

    Dude, I really do miss this show with Adam hosting it!!!... I have spent many nights eating dinner and watching this show.... Also many nights watching reruns cuddled on the couch and eating leftovers... Always made a challenge out of whatever it was I was eating to kind of compete with Adam haha... He was the best host and personally for this by far... Actually Adam is the O.G. of this type of thing... seems like after he retired that’s when all the you tubers started to come out because there was a huge hole in that thriving market... would be awesome to see him come back!!! I would bet he would have even more success today if he did 👍👍
