If you and your friends are looking for a great way to bond and show off your abilities, then you may want to look into challenges to do together. You can find everything from simple ones to adventurous dares. Just remember to always make safety a priority when trying out these challenges with friends. All of the following dares can be done safely as long as you know what you are doing.
Crazy and Fun Food Challenges to Do With Friends
Some of the most popular challenges involve food. Some will only need ingredients you probably already have at home while others might require a trip to a specialty store.
1. Pickle Challenge
Don't be fooled by your love of pickles. This challenge is incredibly disg
usting, even for those who could eat pickles for every meal. It involves eating an entire jar of pickles and drinking all the juice. Have everyone race to see who can complete the challenge first or set up a time limit.
2. Oreo Games with Higher Difficulty
If you want food challenges that don't involve eating as much as possible, Oreo games are good and delicious options. You twist the Oreo into two pieces then lick the side with the white filling. You then stick the Oreo onto your forehead and have to eat it without any help from your hands.
3. Here Comes Cinnamon
You've probably heard of the cinnamon challenge, which is one of the most entertaining challenges to do with friends. The idea is to have a full tablespoon of the spice without washing it down in a minute. This is hard because cinnamon's dryness instantly gets rid of the saliva from your mouth. Just be sure to take extra care and keep back-up water nearby if you try this as some people have had lung damage.
4. Gallon Milk Challenge
Gallon milk challenge is also pretty popular and deceptively hard. The goal is to drink a full gallon of milk within an hour without throwing up. It seems simple in theory, but our bodies aren't designed to digest that quantity of dairy that quickly. This means it almost always leads to throwing up. Try it with several friends, and take interesting pictures.
5. Saltine Challenge
Another challenge that you thought should be easy but is hard is the saltine challenge. The goal is to eat six saltines within a minute. The problem is that the crackers are dry and salty, making it hard to swallow them down that fast.
6. Other Food Challenges
- Chubby bunny: The idea is to put as many marshmallows in your mouth as possible until you can't say "chubby bunny" anymore. Be careful with this challenge since choking is a risk.
- Beans and chopsticks: Dumb a can of baked beans into a bowl and try to take as many as you can out, one at a time, with chopsticks in a minute. Make it a race among friends.
- Watermelon: Try to eat the most watermelon without hands in two minutes. Just remember to take pictures.
