I’m all for gluttony (as can be seen in this photo) when there’s good reason behind it but agreeing to eat 6000 calories in one day without justification, and without a guarantee of good food, that just seems absurd. Then again I’m not a male journalist for the Vancouver Sun named Pete McMartin. Perhaps he’s a little less picky about his gluttonous escapades.  If I ever agree to eat 6000 calories in one day I’d at least like to know the restaurants ahead of time, and being the curious sort that I am I think I’d also need to know why I was doing it.  By no means am I against this kind of human experiment, but if I were to be the subject there'd be a few parameters.

...and why is The Keg being so secretive about what their ribs look like? Very curious.
