"Epic Meal Time" is the name of a blog. It's also now the name of a book. Both are extreme. Both take food to the edge. Only the blog has I think this book and the blog that started it all had to have been a product of a heavy night of drinking in a house full of guys with insatiable appetites. It reminds me a lot of what my husband and his group of guy friends might come up with after a late night. While I would probably not try any of the recipes in these pages, it's still a very fun read.

If you're familiar with the Epic Meal Time internet videos, you know what this book is all about. If you're not, picture ridiculous food, like absolutely ridiculous food (like food that has thousands and thousands of calories) and you have what this book is. It is ridiculous! While I wish the book had music like the videos do, this book was not too shabby! Get it for the epic male or lady in your life that likes massive quantities of crazy food!
