Move over, food porn. Competitive eating is about slamming as many calories as possible, and there’s a massive YouTube community around it. Erik the Electric’s food challenge videos have been viewed 80 million times.
This week on 2 Girls 1 Podcast, Alli and Jen (actors who perform weird internet stuff on stage) talk to Erik about approaching this extreme lifestyle in a healthy way and his personal battle with anorexia.
Everything you think you know about food is about to go out the window.
