nah, it was the one where they tried to jump a broken wooden ramp with THE red wagon, the ramp broke, wagon and bam/some other dude flew, he landed on the wagon wrong and broke his tailbone.
saw a special on that 6lb burger on the food network waay back and they do have contests for ppl to eat it and "try" to finish it in a time limit. That burger would last me the whole day.
damn...now i need a beer after a long grueling day at work...too bad my stomachs empty eh
Strange fad occuring in Japan... Earlier today, I was searching around for chocolate udon noodle dishes, which I happen to see in an episode of Hagure Keiji Junjoha 15. On the program, Detective Tazaki was introduced to what looked to be an ordinary bowl of udon noodles with the fixings. Instead, it turned out to be udon-style noodles made out of chocolate and flour, along with fishcake-looking pieces that were made of candy, and topped with whip cream.
In searching for a recipe to make the dessert dish, I stumbled across the following article... This is some FREAKY stuff!!!!
Chocolate-flavored potato chips not hard to swallow

Imagine chocolate sprinkled on a cup of steaming hot rice, or ice cream mixed with a sizzling bowl of udon noodles and you've got "parasite food," the latest food fad among Japan's young, according to Shukan Shincho (6/24).
"Parasite Foods" are the culinary concoctions that well and truly exceed the bounds of common sense, but are currently all the rage among Japan's hip set.
Take the mayora, the name being given to those who add mayonnaise to absolutely everything they eat. Then there's the pudding party, who show a preference for bread flavored with sticky custard pudding, or dumplings filled with the same dessert.
Adding chocolate to udon noodles seems a preposterous proposition, but just such a product is pulling in the punters.
So are chocolate flavored potato chips, which have prompted an enormous number of consumers to chomp away since Hokkaido-based confectioner Royce released them onto an unsuspecting but willing market last year.
"People seem to like the mix of salt and sweetness," a spokesman for Royce tells Shukan Shincho. "But we haven't done any research into products like hot rice covered in chocolate."
In Nagoya, where (sickly sweet) azuki beans on toast is a local delicacy, you can also find a cafe that is doing a roaring trade selling spaghetti with an azuki and sweetened whipped cream sauce.
Kyoto's Anba Sandwiches are getting brisk sales throughout the country of its revolting sandwiches with a filling that's a blend of coffee jelly, whipped cream and natto, a gooey, sticky paste created by fermented beans.
Writer Maruo Shioda is not surprised to see so many fans of fetid fare.
"Mayonnaise makes things taste a bit sweeter and chocolate, of course, has that effect," Shioda tells Shukan Shincho. "Japanese nowadays get used to eating sweet foods from childhood, so I suppose the sugary flavor people are now looking for suggests they're searching for something a little calming and therapeutic."

HAAAAAH??????
Do you actually make an ordinary bowl of ramen, then put mayo on top? Or, do you mix the mayo in with the ramen? Basically, mayonaise is whipped egg and oil, so I could see this combination turning out to be good.
Okay! I found the ep of the chocolate udon dish! I edited out the other parts and kept just the dessert parts. Besides the udon dish, there's also a pudding dish (looks like a mexican flan dish), mixed with shoyu... The girl says, "It tastes like sea urchin that way." UUUUUUUUUUGGGGH!!!!
Then later in the capture, Detective Tazaki introduces the dishes to her colleagues... You gotta see Yasuura's reaction -- it's classic!!!!!

Just put hot water in a bowl of cup-o-noodles then I put the mayonaise on top and tried it and it tasted good. I mixed it up a bit with the soup and it tasted pretty rich. Although it's quite anti-good for the health, however, for those people who want to try this and not gain too many calories, try using fat free mayonsaise :D Of course the regular mayo taste much better :hehe:

Would you happen to remember if in the scene the characters made a big deal out of the fact that she put the mayo in her ramen? Or, was it just something you saw her do and no one mentioned it (i.e. seeing someone putting ketchup on french fries is no big deal at all).
