What Parents Need to Know
About Man v. Food
Parents need to know that while this reality series -- which follows host Adam Richman as he travels the country trying local cuisines and participating in eating challenges -- is pretty mild overall, its focus on overindulging in large portions of food highlights some unhealthy eating habits. There's also some very mild sexual innuendo, as well as some alcohol (mostly beer) consumption during meals.
