From my hometown newspaper:

An October challenge issued by the Animal Rescue League (ARL) of Marshalltown culminated in a hilarious Facebook live stream on Thursday.
The challenge issued by Executive Director Austin Gillis was to raise $100,000 by Dec. 31. If the public was able to do that, he would eat a can of pet food on live stream. The final total of money raised was $102,416.35, $10,000 of which was raised in the final three days.
....
Gillis then stabbed a significantly larger chunk of beef, getting some of the gravy in his beard. His hand covered his mouth and told the viewers the chunk was too big to swallow. Gillis shook his head.
“I do not recommend,” he said. “I do not. I do not, at all, recommend this to anyone.”
The dog food may have been chunky, but that's a nice chunk of change to help animals, wouldn't you say?

I'd probably hate it, but it wouldn't hurt me.
