YouTuber and competitive eater ErikTheElectric has taken on some outrageous food challenges before, but his latest TikTok might be one of his most jaw-dropping yet.
In a recent viral TikTok, he attempts to eat like Samantha Mason, the My 600-lb Life star who once weighed 950 pounds.
Erik explains that the idea came from a Reddit thread that analyzed Mason’s on-screen meals.
Using that as a guide, he recreated her daily diet and filmed the entire stomach-churning process.
YouTuber takes on Samantha Mason’s extreme meal plan
The day began with a mountain of breakfast burritos (six in total) all topped with a little salsa.
That was followed by multiple breakfast sandwiches and a frappe “to wash it all down.”
But the caffeine boost didn’t stop there.
After polishing off the first frappe, he opened a second one to help him tackle a Big Mac and 20 chicken McNuggets. For dessert? An entire box of cookies.
“Believe it or not, after the cookies, I was decently full,” Erik admitted, before reminding viewers that the day was only just beginning.
Next up came a grocery run to Walmart for “meal two,” which he warned featured one of the worst foods ever made.
The second round started with a pint of Ben & Jerry’s, a large frappuccino, and two candy bars.
Then came the real challenge: a massive carrot cake he described as “disgusting” and nearly impossible to eat.
From breakfast burritos to cake ‘popsicles’
“My strategy was to get down as much of the frosting as I could,” he said in the clip.
“But eventually, there was no way around it. I had to eat the inside.”
Struggling to stomach it, Erik came up with a desperate plan: he put the cake in the freezer, hoping it would harden into a popsicle.
While he waited, he cooked up a Hot Pocket (or tried to, at least).
“They’re ice cold,” he joked. “I can’t even cook a Hot Pocket.”
He then moved on to a full bag of Chex Mix, followed by an entire bag of chicken nuggets, complete with his signature “wow sauce.”
When it came time to return to the carrot cake, his plan had failed miserably.
“It’s not even frozen at all,” he groaned before taking another reluctant bite.
“This tastes like regret wrapped in cream cheese frosting.”
“I feel like I’m about to give birth to a baby”
By the end, Erik said he felt like he was “about to give birth to three babies.”
Still, with the help of a little peanut butter, he managed to get through three-quarters of the cake, though he immediately questioned whether it was worth it.
“Probably not,” he concluded. “But hey, at least I got my serving of vegetables in for the day.”
The video quickly gained traction across social media, with fans both horrified and impressed by his dedication to recreating Mason’s calorie-heavy meal plan.
One thing’s for sure, it’s a challenge even ErikTheElectric admits he’ll never attempt again.
