That video isn't this years competition. It's a few years ago when the
record was set at 53.5 hotdogs. This year, the winner (USA)downed 66
hotdogs in 12 minutes. I'm not sure that's a record the USA should be
proud of. LOL

Are you kidding me? It was a national disgrace having the record in
Japan.

Well, of course it was, but I was thinking about the irony of the most
overweight country in the world having a record involving stuffing a
hotdog and bun down your throat every 11 seconds for 12 minutes. LOL I
watched it live on the 4th and was rooting for the USA, but it still
seems a bit strange to me. Only in the USA.

You think that's bad?

The Swiss have won the America's Cup.

I did not calculate the time... Maybe I should have my BIL enter?
I watched him snarf down a chili-dog the other day in 3 bites, maybe 5
seconds total!

The question is tho' could he keep that up at a sustained rate for 12
minutes and not kill himself. ;-)

I proceeded to gently lecture him that one of the many secrets to weight
loss and eating less was taking your time and chewing your food. At the
last party I attended, they served grilled hot dogs.

I was able to eat exactly 1 and 1/2 with a bun, ketchup and a light
sprinkling of grated cheese, and that stuffed me for a good 6 hours. :-P

Never again. I'd not eaten a hot dog for at least 6 years... I never buy
them. Too high in sodium.

I hate to tell ya, sweetheart, sodium is the least of your worries when it
comes to hot dogs!

someone on one of the blogs pointed out that sixty-six hot dogs is
more than most people eat in a year.
