How Fast Could You Eat An Entire Grocery Store Of Food?

Video summary

Press to jump

1:15The contestants inventory the store, and Joe calculates the scale of the eating task.
3:53The spoilage rule emerges: every calorie that goes bad takes a dollar from the prize pool.
15:06Ten bodybuilders offer eating assistance, prompting Joe to question the contestants' food choices.
25:37A food safety inspection finds vegetables that must be discarded, triggering a cash deduction.
45:36Family members join the contestants inside the store for a day and help eat the groceries.
52:29A treadmill challenge offers a way to remove a large quantity of food; its outcome comes at 59:05.

"SkinnyPop popcorn! That's what we picked?!" Joe Bartolozzi asks as ten bodybuilders arrive to help clear a grocery store of food. With that much eating assistance available, the choice of snack seems to him like a wasted opportunity.

In "How Fast Could You Eat An Entire Grocery Store Of Food?", Joe watches and pauses MrBeast's challenge rather than attempting it himself. Juan, Jackson, Rayhan and Alden must work through a store containing more than four million calories for a million-dollar prize pool.

The catch makes fresh produce more urgent than the shelves of snacks: every calorie that spoils costs them a dollar. Joe repeats the rule in disbelief. Later, a food safety specialist's inspection turns discarded vegetables into an actual deduction from the cash pile. This isn't simply a matter of eating whatever looks good.

MrBeast supplies gym equipment and a trainer so the contestants can burn energy and keep eating. Visiting bodybuilders, football players and family members offer extra appetites. Joe scrutinizes those opportunities, including the cart choices that leave him protesting about popcorn. A later treadmill challenge offers another route to removing calories from the store without eating them.

Viewers are devising their own approaches, too. Some picture the free food and gym as a vacation; one proposes walking laps while eating cookies and ice cream. Joe's own reaction is less settled when he sees family members waiting beyond the boundary contestants cannot cross: the temptation to step over it, he says, would be hard to resist.
