Just a quick update. Unfortunately there won’t be a challenge video dropping this week. Sorry to those of you who were looking forward to one!
That said, there’s plenty happening behind the scenes right now. I’ve been spending a lot of time working with businesses, helping to develop new food challenges, putting together collaboration opportunities, and creating plenty of exciting food challenge content for the channel.
There’s also a lot more in the pipeline, with some great projects and challenges already being planned for the rest of 2026 and beyond.
I really appreciate all of you sticking with me and being patient while everything comes together. Your support genuinely means a lot, and I promise I’ll continue bringing you content as regularly as I possibly can.
There’ll be a new upload next Sunday, and I’m excited to share what’s coming up over the next few months. I hope you’ll stick around for the journey!
🌍🍕🌮 LIVE Eating Challenge & Q&A – YOU CHOOSE! 🍔🇬🇷🇪🇸
Friday 5th June 📅
I’m thinking about hosting a live eating challenge and Q&A right here on YouTube, where the menu is chosen by YOU!
The stream would likely run from 5–6 PM GMT and be exclusive to YouTube.
🔥 If this post gets 200 likes, I’ll make it happen!
Here’s where it gets interesting…
👇 YOU CHOOSE THE THEME 👇
Maybe: 🇮🇹 Italian food? 🇬🇧 Traditional British classics? 🇲🇽 Mexican favourites? 🇪🇸 Spanish tapas and treats? 🇬🇷 Greek specialities? 🌎 Or something completely different from where you live?
Comment below with: ✅ A country ✅ A food theme ✅ Specific foods you’d like included
The most popular, creative, or interesting suggestion wins, and I’ll do my best to make it happen for the live stream!
Would you: 👍 Join the challenge? 💬 Watch the Q&A? 🔥 Do both?
When you think of afternoon tea, you imagine a calm, sophisticated affair…
Neatly cut finger sandwiches, dainty little cakes, and a relaxed catch-up with friends.
It’s all very elegant. Very civilised. Very… controlled.
Or… you could completely ignore all of that and take on an afternoon tea designed for FOUR people… by yourself.
Because what starts as “just a nice little tea” very quickly turns into a full-blown race against the clock, a table covered in crumbs, and absolute chaos!
And just when I thought it couldn’t get more intense… if I wasn’t already terrified of the challenge, I then had owner Aly watching over me the whole time… 🫣
She scared me 😅… but she also makes a pretty banging scone — and this thing is still undefeated 👀🔥
Afternoon tea… but make it competitive ☕🍰🔥
The ‘Sip Happens’ Afternoon Tea Challenge - 4 x Ham and cheese Rolls - 4 x Tuna Mayonnaise Rolls - 4 x Egg Mayonnaise Rolls - 4 x Sausage Rolls - 4 x Scones - 8 x Mini Quiches - 8 x HUGE Wedges Of Cake
After a challenge, I don’t always stop eating there… 😅
More often than not, I carry on for the rest of the day. It’s my chance to give in to any cravings, get it out of my system, and reset before jumping back into my usual routine for the next challenge.
Let’s just say… things can get a little out of control 👀
So why not bring you along for the ride and show you what really happens once the challenges end and the cameras stop rolling?
Let me know if you’d like to see it 🤗
This will be exclusively on TikTok 🎥
Going LIVE tonight from 4:30pm GMT (TBC)
Following today’s Pie Eating Contest LIVE with British Eating League at 2PM GMT
I’m not saying I manifested this… but I’m also not not saying that 😅
This challenge has been on my to do list for the longest time, but it hasn’t been available as an actual challenge for ages. Still on the menu, just not something you could officially take on as a challenge
I messaged Beefy Boys and made my case. One message turned into a few… which turned into “okay, fine you can do it” 😂
And just like that, a long-awaited challenge became very real. Trust me… this one was worth the wait!
The Phat Boy Platter - 2 x Signature Burgers - 2 x Loaded Fries (Pastrami/Garlic Parmesan) - 3 x Chicken Tenders (Garlic Parmesan) - 6 x Chicken Wings (BBQ & Ranch) - 10 x Mega Mac’n’Cheese Balls - Coleslaw
PLUS - Kinder Bueno Shake (Optional)
The Rules: ⏱️ 30mins time limit
🏆 WIN and the meal is FREE + MUG & T-SHIRT
💵 FAIL…. You Pay Double! 👀
NOTE - Sadly, The Phat Boy platter is no longer offered for FREE if completed, however it remains on the menu and is available at all times as a pay to play challenge
It’s fair to say the UK isn’t world famous for its cuisine… but there’s one thing that’s absolutely legendary
The traditional Full English fry-up 🇬🇧
A true British institution. Crispy bacon, sizzling sausages, eggs, hash browns… and yes! baked beans (because without beans, is it even a proper fry-up?! 👀).
Maybe not the healthiest way to start your day, but a guaranteed cure for any hangover… or so I’m told 😅
Attempted by many. Failed by competitive eaters. Only completed by TWO
@oneillscafeandcoffeeshop
The ONEILL’S “Super 6 Breakfast Challenge”
- 2 x Eggy Bread - 2 x Fried Bread - 2 x Toast - 3 x Square Sausage - 3 x Lincolnshire Sausage - 3 x Fried Eggs - 3 x Scrambled Eggs - 6 x Tattie Scones (potato cakes) - 6 x Hash Browns - 6 x Back Bacon - 6 x Black Pudding - 1 x Large Chips - 1 x Large Baked Beans - 1 x Tinned Tomatoes
I’d heard nothing but hype about @GhettoGrubUk so I went in ready to tackle one of their existing menu challenges…
But Fin, the owner, had other ideas 👀
Instead, I got the chance to help create and take on a brand new, totally unique, fully customised challenge built around my favourite flavours and tastes!
Honestly, what a privilege 🙌
Fin’s energy for this was unreal! Between us we put together what I can only be described as an absolute masterpiece
We started with their famous Ghetto Muffin and turned it into the ultimate sweet and savoury breakfast of champions, we’re talking waffles, pancakes, Biscoff spread and even a glazed Belgian bun
It sounds ridiculous… In the best possible way!
The Rules: ⏱️ 45min time limit
🏆 WIN and the meal is FREE + MERCH
💵 FAIL…. £35
The ‘LiftingWeightsCleaningPlates Muffin-Mega-Set’
On paper, this challenge looked unbeatable! A full English fry-up loaded with all the classics, bacon, sausages, eggs, hash browns PLUS a stack of pancakes just to raise the stakes
Joining me was @Josh-The-Goat over in the UK during his August tour. With only one winner ever, we came in fully focused on becoming the second and third to take this one down
But challenges don’t always go to plan An unexpected and very real obstacle flipped everything on its head, putting victory in serious doubt
Did we rise to the challenge… or did breakfast win?
The Rules: ⏱️ 45min time limit
🏆 WIN and the meal is FREE
💵 FAIL…. £50
The ‘Fry Hard Challenge’ - 12 x Eggs - 6 x Hash Browns - 6 x Black Pudding - 6 x Back Bacon - 6 x Streaky Bacon - 6 x Sausages - 3 x Toast - 2 x Pancakes - 2 x Tomatoes - 2 x Beans
