These days, we’re all pretty familiar with the often-disgusting TV Show Man Vs Wild, with recently-sacked host, Bear Grylls…

But there’s another show, in a similar vein, that’s recently taken my fancy.

It’s Man Vs Food, on Monday nights on 7mate, is a travel/food show with a bloke called Adam, who roams the USA looking for the most incredibly tasty (ie: unhealthy) food creations – and of course, colossal food challenges!

This mostly ends in me being torn between thinking “that looks awesome/tasty” and “I’m having a heart attack just looking at it”… like we see here.

Well, this morning I had a little man vs food/wild moment of my own, when pouring out my cereal…

I was expecting something like this:

Instead, I got an unexpected visitor, in the form of a large bug (ie cockroach) in the top of my cereal! Must have been having a snooze in the top of the box.

This left me in a bit of a pickle, because a) this was the last of the cereal, so i couldn’t clear out the bowl and pour some “fresh” flakes in…  b) there were no other breakfast foods in the house… and, c) I was really, really hungry!!

So, having recently been watching a bit of the above shows, I figured “if those guys are still alive, I can make this happen”… so I sloshed the milk on and went to town.

Now, a little while later, I’m thinking maybe I should have listened to those disclaimers that tell you “Don’t Try This at home”…

What do you think, should i have gone the chew on the “tainted” cereal??
