Trying to eat a WEEK’S worth of food in ONE MEAL!

Imagine slamming a full week’s calories in a single meal on your cheat day!
That was our exact goal for this week’s INSANE food challenge.
As you’ll see, we may have followed the USDA’s calorie recommendation for a 29 year old male but we most certainly did not abide by any nutritional advise seeing, to get all those calories in, we had to call on some heavy hitters like pizza, burgers, edible cookie dough and cream pie to get the job done.
This was a big, ambitious challenge for us so please be sure to give the video a ‘LIKE’ while you’re here and subscribe if you’re new for plenty more epic food challenges, mukbangs, and general eating entertainment!
Much love,
-Pete & Nate

FAQ’s:
Most of your questions were probably answered in this video:
• The Longest Mukbang Ch...
Extremely insightful video into how it works:
• How Matt Stonie stays ...
Q: How do you not gain weight?
Well, we currently are but here’s a quick answer as to how we managed to do weekly food challenges for a year and a half without gaining much it:
A: Endurance sports (primarily running, cycling and some resistance training tossed in) and extreme discipline & sacrifice with our daily diets is how we manage not to gain weight. We eat mostly vegetables, fruits, some whole grains and low fat dairy on the days outside these challenges. The calories consumed in a food challenge are the only calories consumed that day and sometimes the day following as well seeing our appetites are typically shot from so much food and the thought of eating is very off putting. Two days out we are back to large amounts of vegetables and increase to maintenance from there. We also often eat most of our days calories in a smaller eating window (we frequently bounce between intermittent fasting & OMAD diet as it just seems to work with our lifestyles and eating preferences). Anyone with a larger than normal stomach capacity like us, the drive to push through the discomfort of a challenge like this, and a basic understanding of energy balance (calories in vs calories out) can do it with enough disciple and intention (not that we recommend it).
Also worth mentioning is that we do not exercise to burn the calories consumed in a challenge but rather we are able to consume higher calorie diets due to our love for endurance sports and said discipline with our daily diets.
Q: Can you make a “What I eat in a day” / fitness focused video?
A: While we’re sure that type of video will eventually make its way out there, this channel is intended primarily for food entertainment. We’re still in the very early stages of establishing ourselves within this genre and we’re constantly experimenting and trying to improve upon our style to make our channel a unique experience. Food is our passion while fitness is our discipline so, while we currently only have the availability to produce one quality piece of content a week, food-centered videos is where we’ll be focusing our attention (and trust us, it’s more fun for all of us this way). Thats not to say it will never happen - it’s just not a top priority for us.

I gotta try that Pizza/Cream cheese combo! Looked LEGENDARY!

[@TheTakedownTwins]

Dude, MASSIVE pizza upgrade 🤩🔥

[@bernardgervais611]

Yo Erik, you should hook these bros up with a collab! THAT would be legen-dairy!!

never get tired of watching through your uploads! the challenges you guys take on are crazier than so many others I've seen on youtube lol

[@TheTakedownTwins]

We sure do go big in a lot of these 😁 So glad you’re enjoying the videos!

[@justjordan2478]

If they’re basing their calorie intake off the average persons diet, they are a weeks worth of food like 10 minutes into the video

[@lineeylol]

Their edit is just 🔥, every second is very enjoyable, and that's a real effort right there, hope they soon reach 100k, they will truly deserve it.

[@dottywhl5335]

Insane :p Never seen this video idea before, you guys are always so refreshing with your content! thanks for another awesome upload!

Creamy peanut butter superior. Don’t quit making my peanut butter halfway thru the process.

Ohh genius video this week guys, just when I thought it couldn't get any better you come up with this! So many of my favourite foods feature here, and your combos are epic! 🤩 Love the graphics on the screen too, great content and editing 👌 looked like so much fun to do, I'm loving this one! 😀 much love to you both ❤️

[@TheTakedownTwins]

So glad you enjoyed it and really appreciate the love on the idea and editing! It sure was a bit of fun until the end there 😅 Much love!

[@Caroline.martin]

@@TheTakedownTwins yeah I bet it seemed like a good idea to start with lol, but you guys never do things by halves 😂

[@HKim0072]

Calories is one thing. That sugar crash, yikes.

[@deecohen1383]

Before I stopped eating peanut butter. Skippy extra crunchy honey peanut butter. This is what I did before I stopped. put the peanut butter in the freezer. Then drizzle chocolate syrup on top. And then put either regular or strawberry marshmallow fluff on top of that and then more chocolate syrup. Marshmallow fluff should also be stored in the freezer. Then get a spoon and go to town

[@zayden0077]

I loved this video! It's such a fantastic idea. It's still pretty shocking to see how easy it is to eat the recommended amount of calories with processed food though. 1. I'd easily let Nutella go since I'm not really a chocolate fan, but I've never had Biscoff before. 2. Having never had any of the cream pies before, I feel like I can't go wrong with peanut butter. 3. I would let either Burger King or McDonald's go.

[@TheTakedownTwins]

So glad you enjoyed! That’s a great point about how easy it can be to overdue it with these kinds of foods! You’ll have to try Biscoff some day and you’re right - can’t go wrong with a PB Pie! 🔥

[@markusliebscher5185]

You have to try Biscoff. It's pure heaven. I really enjoyed Nutella until i tried Biscoff 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@juliendoyle6213]

that's nuts! how many calories do yall eat on your off days? - or do you eat anything haha (also- yall should start a fitness/behind the scenes channel!)

I actually do like both crunchy and creamy pb. It depends on what I use it for on which I want. Like for waffles I love crunchy but for sammiches I prefer creamy

[@LynnButterfly]

Team crunchy (though I like both) Team corn chips (as a kid I was potato)

[@jadelynn1703]

Is it weird that I sometimes like crunchy PB and sometimes smooth? I Cannot pick a side because I love both at different times.

Crunchy for sure!

Creamy!!! If I’m gonna have crunchy pb I may as well just have a handful of peanuts

creamy and corn for sure

[@chanie97wolf]

Crunchy all the way !!!! Totally unrelated but do you guys have a twin tattoo??? You guys should get one !!

[@moes3948]

Great Video as always! You guys should do a healthy food calorie challenge with fruits and vegetables to switch it up!

[@sdtngo]

10:10 i would say C cos there’s plenty of better pb brands, but for the other two they’re kinda ‘what they are’.

A croissant crust pizza? That is something I have never even heard of. Sounds phenomenal. Love the small subtitles editing phrases: Eating another cupcake 😂 I would remove Burger King, there recently was a massive scandal in Germany, they lost their Vegan labels among other things. I would try the Banana Cream Pie. Potato / Corn chips is a 50/50 for me, but my favorite chips are Pommels sold by Lorenz.

I will have to chime in and say that I might actually love cream cheese as much as you guys do I don’t consume as much of it as you do but I will eat it plain with a spoon and some crack black pepper heated up or cold anytime of day any day all day basically I love cream cheese as much as you guys too I think

[@alisachamoy225]

OMG an entire tub of cream cheese on Pizza! You guys made my day.

[@kiannadariooshbonnet4200]

Very ambitious challenge! Good effort! I am always learning new ways to use cream cheese from you both. Maybe you will be sponsored by Philadelphia soon enough. 😂 To be honest, I like crunchy and smooth PB equally. It depends on my mood and what I am using it for, for which I’d like at that time. For the chips, I guess maybe potato. I don’t really like chips too much. 1) I would choose either the chocolate chip or PB Cookie Monster! 2) Sorry but I have to say the biscoff spread. I really like it, but it gets a bit too sweet for me. That, and the PB Nutella combination is my all time favorite, so I can’t let either of those go. 3) I am probably going to be the minority here and choose Wendy’s for the burgers, but only because I’ve never had a burger from there. I only had the nuggets and was not a fan. Anyway, thanks for another amazing video. Best of wishes from France!
