What is the Iron Nun Stomach?

M. The Iron Nun Stomach is a challenge where warned people will have to try weird food combinations to get points and prove to everyone they have the toughest stomach.

R. The name is Inspired by the Iron Nun Run, this is a challenge from Jul 8 to Aug 4 to find the Halo Bearer with the toughest stomach. The community gets to vote for a weird food combination for participants to eat. We calculate points and find out who is the winner by the end.

How did the idea happen?

M. It started as a joke. We were discussing weird food combinations with friends on Discord and a friend made a joke about having a contest on it because we are doing one for sleep. Rollercoaster proposed a first set of rules (still as a joke). I remember saying "It's a terrible idea". But I'm too curious so I asked how it could work for real (aka how to get points, how to submit food recipes, etc), we discussed more in detail about it and suddenly we were too invested in it to just not do it.

R. A friend from Discord was sharing her weird food combination and we made a joke about a weird food contest. I was thinking about how it could work with no intention of it being a real thing. Morgane came along, made a Discord thread and the rest is history.

What is the goal of the Iron Nun Stomach?

M. First goal is to create chaos which will create engagement. A secondary role would probably be to try new things.

R. I needed more fun and chaos in my life cause I support #TeamFruity. But also I wanted to allow the fandom to interact too even if they aren’t participating in the challenge.
