Food got the best of us!
So for our second installment of Man V Food we went to Quaker Steak and lube for my birthday dinner. We started out with the second two hottest wing flavor and some delish BBQ ribs. The wings were probably the best ever. We then ordered the Atomic hot wings. The waitress brought out the release forms that we actually hat to sign before they could bring them out! We then got the measly 5 wings looking very innocent in their cute egg carton dish. Being the wimp I am I made Dave try them first and he got through 2 bites without appearing affected so I figured it was my turn. I took one bite and about died. 15 Min. and 2 glasses of water later I conviced myself it wasnt so bad and took one more bite. This one almost made me cry. Only after 2 giant glasses of milk, multiple ice cubes and another 15 min was I actually able to breathe again. Funny enough all the liquid served to negate the goodness of the original dinner by making me severely nauseus. Despite getting sick it was a wonderful birthday because I actually got to see my husband :D

Man v Food
So it's 11:00 at night and Dave and I are watching the Man v. Food show on the travel channel. Watching all the good food made us extremely hungry so we decide to do our own Man v. Food adventure. We looked up where this guy went when he was in Pittsburgh (Quaker Steak and Lube and Primanti Brothers) and decided we were going to go for the Atomic hot wings challenge at Quaker where the hot wings are made with Habanero peppers and register 150,000 Scoville units (I dont really know what that means except hot) so at almost midnight we hop in the truck to challenge the food. Sadly the kitchen part of the resturant was closed. We went to plan B, the Primanti Brothers where they put french fries and coleslaw on their sandwiches (also in the episode) and had a strangely delicious midnight dinner. But no worries there will be another episode of Strain v. Food when for my birthday Friday we will take on the Atomic hot wings. This is what the menu says about them! Notice that to order these you have to sign a release form! Wish us luck!
