Randy Santel hoping to bring Man v. Food back to KC

Man v. Food understands something about America — we are a nation of eaters. As such, they’ve invented the Man v. Food Nation challenge — wherein the show will come to one city to film an aspiring (or current) competitive eater take down a monster plate of food.

Randy Santel is Kansas City’s hopeful, one of five finalists left in the challenge — and he’s got his eyes set on a 55-ounce burger called The Super Flea at the Westport Flea Market. The winner will be determined by online voting that ends on Thursday, August 11, with Man v. Food filming an episode in the winner’s hometown.Â
