Piranha Feast (also known as Hungry for Love and Pig Out) is a recurring challenge that originated in Survivor: The Amazon.
Rules
Using only their mouths, the castaways must rip pieces of meat off a large roast animal and place them into a basket. The tribe (or, in Fiji, individuals) with the most meat (by weight) in the basket after a given amount of time wins.
History
The challenge debuted in Survivor: The Amazon as Piranha Feast, where the tribes tore off pieces of beef with their mouths. Tambaqui won the challenge and immunity.
The challenge returned in Survivor: Fiji. This usage would be an individual challenge wherein the top three would go on a river rafting trip. The person with the most meat by weight would also receive an advantage in the upcoming Immunity Challenge. Boo Bernis easily came in first place in the challenge and received the advantage. Yau-Man Chan and Dreamz Herd came in second and third respectively and joined Boo on the reward.
In Survivor: South Pacific, the challenge reappeared with a slab of pork. Upolu won the challenge, receiving immunity and the meat in their basket, vegetables, and spices as a bonus reward. Several contestants noted receiving injuries during the challenge, including cuts to the mouth and chipped teeth.
