We like to think our very best Scouts are the kind of stache-sporting, curious characters on the hunt for a new adventure. Especially when that adventure involves food. Two weeks ago, Chris was just a regular ol' dude who loved the Atlanta food scene. Now, he is passionately embarking on a journey to answer the age-old question "seriously, WHO eats that stuff?” (The answer? Him.)
His blog, WhoEatsThatStuff, will require dedicating his stomach to eating at least one new thing for each of the 365 days this year, along with committing to update his blog daily with each new bite.
His lifestyle as a musician is already pretty unpredictable, and if that means going into questionable fast-food joints, sketchy grocery stores in Bumblef*#k USA in order to keep his commitment, then by-golly he’s the man to do it.
And like any proper challenge, there are some basic ground rules. He is only counting solid foods. He can’t just throw on a new sauce to spruce up normal foods. He’ll be scouring Buford Highway, unique restaurants, farmer’s markets and your internet recommendations to find new, tasty, uncharted food territories. Whether it's weird, foreign, or just sounds intriguing, it just has to be new to his tastebuds.
Give him some love and feel free to leave your two cents and suggestions on his blog and follow him on Twitter.
May the weird food force be with you, Chris.
