Riley Merry, now known in the community as “Potato Salad Guy,” is now something of a Halifax legend after his antics over the weekend drew a crowd to watch him devour a five-pound tub of potato salad. But why did he do it?

“I realized it [the tub] was going to expire, I didn’t have time to reasonably eat it, so I looked at it, saw the expiry date, and said, ‘That’s a challenge. I can do it,'” he told Global News Morning.

Merry joined the Halifax morning show to share the details of how the idea began stewing, if he ever completed the challenge, and to explore why the internet became so enthralled with a man eating potato salad in the rain.
