I couldn't do it, not even for a million dollars!

For a chance at a million dollars? I would eat last weeks leftover fishsticks from my kids school cafeteria lunch.

Yeah, I could handle that. I always liked the fish at my school (back in the day), and since it's only Sunday and they serve the fish on Friday... no problem! Wanna race?

I would try. I probably could not keep it down though. That looked gross!

Well, now after watching it it really didn't look that bad, and there wasn't as much of it as I thought there would be. Of course, I would have taken my time watching the dancers so the FF would not have been that much of a benefit to me.

Just knowing what it was would make my stomach turn, regardless of what it looked like. You can have it,I'll still say no thanks! There was more than enough there to make me hurl! By the way... now I know you're a guy if you would have spent your time watching the dancers insteadof concentrating on the race at hand!

I was really impressed by Sarah, Starr, and Nick. I thought Starr would have trouble with the challenge, but she is constantly suprising me. She has a positive attitude, a can do spirit, and that compettive nature that makes them the team to beat!

I think it's one thing to say you would be able to eat it, another thing to say you would be able to eat it FASTER than another team! Remember, Terence & Sarah were racing against Nick & Starr so they couldnt just take their time and eat... they had to do it FAST!!

I recently caught a bunch of slugs with beer in my garden. I showed them to my husband and commented that they would have been a great challenge in Survivor or The Amazing Race.Would I eat them for a million? No way!I wish the fast forwards were more a game of skill and not the fear factor. I am tiring of it all. Come on CBS! Appeal to the intellect and not the shock factor.

I thought this was lame, becase CBS KNEW he was a vegetarian! So it wasn't because they weren't fast enough... or smart enough... it was because of something casting KNEW when they chose him! Stupid challenge where one team went in with a disadvantage. UGH Why make a challenge that you know one team can't do? I hate this show now, the remaining teams are boooooring

I don’t know bq, I think the food challenges on TAR while gross at times to some of us, are at least a local custom to where they take place. Eating slugs might be a custom somewhere, but I sure wouldn’t eat one just to eat one.Something a little closer to home for me is lutefisk. South Dakota, Minnesota, and Iowa is home to a large population who are descended from Norwegian and Swedish immigrants, myself included—my ancestors came from Norway.Every year there is a local celebration called Nordland Fest, and one of the activities is seeing who can eat the most Lutefisk. And for those of you who wonder what it is, well, it’s not something that you will ever see at a fast-food joint.Lutefisk is cod that has been soaked in lye for days, weeks or months, and then boiled. Mmmm-mmmmmm. I remember my Great-Grandmother Olga (really) making it in her house when I was little. The smell is something I can never escape.Would I eat it now? Not a chance. But if it was a challenge on TAR to help further myself in the race? Only if I had no other choice.
