A while ago we did a write up on "The Ramen Challenge", Komachi Japanese Restaurant, Sydney, Australia. Well Vincent decided to give it a shot, and blog his experience!

you have to finish the bowl by yourself in 1 hour. The reward? you get the food for free plus a 50 dollar voucher. And your photo on the wall. 7 people have succeeded so far out of 55.

It's Mega Mac time! These guys rocked up to a Japanese McDonalds and ordered a whole bunch of cheeseburgers, stuck them all together, and this is what was created. The 22 patty MegaMac! (not sure exactly what they called it, it didn't translate too well, so if you can read it, please let me know!)

One of our members, ExtraMSG, has opened a weekend deli with a chef friend in Portland, OR. What would you expect from a Supersized Member? A Supersized Menu Item of course! They've got a pastrami sandwich called "The Last Supper", a 1lb pastrami sandwich... Looks fantastic!!! (although I think a 2lb'er would be better!)

...But the most grand sandwich is The Last Supper, "A full pound...Drive one home today, or share with 12 of your friends." We got our first order for one recently, and they even added cheese.

You've got Giant Burritos, and you've got Super Giant Burritos!!! This 2ft monster is legendary around Davis. Finish the 2ft Super Giant Burrito by yourself, and you get on the wall of fame! Donny and a few of his friends thought they'd give it a shot and blog the experience

From: http://hkn.berkeley.edu/bridge/sp06/retreat/

The super giant burrito is the legendary too-huge-to-be-for-real $10 burrito served at Taqueria Guadalajara. Each half of the super giant burrito is about the size of a super burrito. They are most commonly shared by 2-3 people on a budget. If you finish this monster they'll take your picture and put it on the wall. They keep a polaroid camera behind the counter. The people who note their finishing times list 15 minutes on average.

These fine sized slices come from a place in New Jersey. Haven't been able to find out the pizza shop name, so if you know, please let everyone know in the comments!

Actually, this is in New Jersey. And I don't think this is typical New Jersey pizza. I think we just ordered from an odd pizza place. It was damn good, though.

Continuing our "Supersized New York" series, ojrifkin from eatfeats.com tells us in the forums about the famous 76oz Steak Challenge in suburban NYC. At 3 different locations, Stony Brook, Rocky Point and Calverton, you too can try and demolish the 76oz'er for $59.99. And if you manage to finish it in less than an hour, it's yours free! And I thought the 72oz Big Texan was big! (I feel another "Burger Wars" type battle coming on!)

There's a place called "The Counter" in Palo Alto, CA, that lets you make the burger your way. They give you a sheet with a bunch of check boxes, 54 to be exact, and you mark out what you'd like on your burger. Tim thought he'd see what a burger with every option would look like. And just to make things interesting, his buddy dared him to eat it in 30 minutes. Crazy!

This past Saturday, a few friends and I went to check out this new burger place called The Counter in Palo Alto. Their whole pitch is that you get to build your own burger: pick your meat, size, cheese, toppings, sauce, and bun type, and you're good to go. Their website claims that there are over 312,120 different burger combinations. But as you'll soon see, as far as I'm now concerned, there's only one combination worth getting. Here's the story...

I found this today... didn't realise they released a video of this historic burger creation!
