Seems that nugget challenges have been getting quite a bit of attention recently, with The McNugget McMaster, the McNugget Challenge, the Nugget Off 2004, and the Nugget Off 2005 Promo Video.... Huzzah! We've found another! While I thought the "Nugget-Off 2005" didn't exist, alas I was wrong! So without further adieu, may I present the sequel to the ongoing Nugget Off Saga, the Nugget Off 2005!

Yes folks, we have a new category! It's called, "Food Porn"... dirty, dirty food porn...

You might associate the word "porn" with other activities, however "Food Porn" is where your food is downright dirty, greasy, sometimes big, other times small, but always attractive. No, it's not vegetables having sex, it's sloppy, greasy treats... meals that make your heart skip a beat (sometimes literally!).

A quote by Aussie comedian Dave Hughes comes to mind that helps describe Food Porn,

"Having KFC is like porn. It feels good while you do it, but you feel dirty afterwards, and your hands are all sticky".

That's kinda like what this new section will be like. Pictures of food that you wouldn't want your mother to see you eat ;)

So enjoy as we delve into the dark underbelly of the food world, the world of Food Porn!

[via EatFeats] Pat Bertoletti does it again! This time it's the 4lb (of meat, 7lb totat!) "Sasquatch" Burger at the Big Foot Lodge, Memphis, TN. Apparently no one had successfully completed the challenge before, that is until now. We've written about the Sasquatch before, and now we've got pics of the sole successful finisher! Not only did he finish the burger in only 11.5 minutes, the next day he set the house record at the Acme Oyster House by finishing 53.5 dozen (!) oysters! I wonder if Pat will try and finish The Yeti... :)

When Big Foot Lodge opened in 2005, it presented its customers with an unusual challenge: finish the four-pound Sasquatch burger in less than an hour and get the $19.99 cost back and your picture on the restaurant's hall of fame. On January 2nd, after 679 attempts, someone did it. Patrick Bertoletti of Chicago finished the burger in 11 minutes and 5 seconds. Bertoletti, who's ranked number three in the International Federation of Competative Eaters, set a record the following day in Louisiana by eating 53.5 dozen (!) oysters at the Acme Oyster House in Metarie.

Here's a quick Supersized math lesson.... take 4 x 1/4 pound beef pattys, and what do you get? The McDonalds "Pounder" of course! 1lb of McGreasy goodness in the one convenient package!

Too many leftovers after Superbowl? The guys over at StuffMagazine.com decided to be creative, and make a few different delicacies with the leftovers. This one, a Nacho Burrito on a Pizza!

BJ's Wholesale Club gave us way too much food for our Super Bowl party, so we took what was left over and made it into some heart-punishingly delicious recipes.

Inspired by one of our earlier articles on The McNugget McMaster, this anonymous poster put us onto a video of a guy downing 60 McNuggets in one sitting. Mia still holds the title to this day. (there's even a trophy!)
Warning: There's a reversal by an unsuccessful entrant at the end, but the rest of the vid was too good not to post it!

Another mystery burger, although this time it may be a little harder to track its origin. No response from the photo owner, but worth a mention anyway...
