7 days
168 hours.
Fruit Only.
They said it couldn't be done.
I just ate very awesome food at MONTAGE (incredibly cliche late night eating spot in Portland that is actually secretly very good).
I believe I can fly.
Black Eye Pea Fritters
A beers
Spold Mac
Bread(!) with oil and vinegar!
Such a good challenge!
What have I done?
7vs7: Tempted from Mike Merrill on Vimeo.
If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Could you survive on it for a week? That was the conversation that sparked the 7vs7 Food Challenge. Seven days of eating just seven ingredients. The rules are harsh; Only water, salt, and pepper are free. Everything else must be one of your seven. How important is coffee to you? Can you cook without your olive oil?
To make things more interesting, everyone puts in $25, and whoever is left on day seven splits the pot. At what point is coffee worth $25? How about chocolate? What about pizza? Who will last seven days? Who will be the first eliminated?
