Thursday, Jan. 23: Food Fanatics

Jeremy Selwyn and Keith Shaw are on a mission. It doesn't involve dragons, or damsels in distress. Their quest: taste every snack food known to humankind, from Chinese turkey-flavored chips to Japanese hot chocolate Cheetos.

They are among the area's food fanatics featured tonight, people whose obsessive appetites lead them to unusual tastes. We'll also meet a New Hampshire chocoholic who's taken the fat out of brownies, watch competitive eater Jason "Crazy Legs" Conti in action, and see how the fine art of pickling continues in a Worcester factory.
