I used to skate at this rink in Rochester that had a snack bar.
This wasn’t your average rink snack bar though. At this snack bar the guy made eggplant parmesan, filet mignon, amazing soups, and anything else you’d want.
When I would go there, the cook would made portions for me specifically so that I wouldn’t be able to finish them. It was sorta like a contest. Sometimes he would win and I wouldn’t be able to finish it, and sometimes I’d win when I ate everything.

LIAR! The dubious record of most hotdogs eaten belongs to Takeru Kobayashi and he ate 53.5 dogs in 12 minutes. However, your attempt is admirable.[/quote]
Takeru Kobayashi is really impressive for a competitive eater, and damn a human being. While all his competition are untrainted fat guys who are in horrible health, Kobayashi’s metabolism allows him to eat huge quantities with little weight gain.
In recent years he has added a great deal of muscle mass to his frame, he did this to counteract any weight gain, with more muscle mass he is able to eat larger quantities of food without the over turning of fat. If anyone catches his MTV True Life it is impressive, he is a definite athlete, whose mentality is pretty surprising.
In the documentary you will see him doing deadlifts and other compound lifts.
"Physically Kobayashi has undergone drastic change from his earlier appearances on the competitive eating circuit (weighing in at a mere 110 lb in his beginning competitions and then 144 lb in later events.) This is due in large part to his more recent endeavors in weight training. By training with weights and working out Kobayashi has increased his metabolism, which in turn has helped him to burn more calories. This training is used by Kobayashi to maintain his overall health as well as helping him to elude excess calories from being stored as fat.
Kobayashi’s official web site gives his height as 5 feet 7 inches and his weight as 165 pounds, but in a June 29, 2006, entry on his blog, he says that his weight grew to over 196 pounds during 2006, still being under 10 percent bodyfat."
After failing miserably on a keto diet I resorted to a cheat day.

Hmmm… The most I’ve ever eaten and accurately recorded was when my lifting buddies and I used to have contests at buffets in the early 90’s. For accuracy, we would pick a place next to a Publix (this is a grocery store chain whose trademark is having very accurate scales in the front of their stores), weigh ourselves and write down exactly what each person weighed. We would then go next door to the buffet, pack away as much as we could, the re-weigh ourselves to see how much we had gained. As of our last contest held back in '93 sometime, I held the record at 5.5 lbs gained.

I gained 6 lbs after my four lbs of watermelon and quart of milk. I wasn’t even trying.

Try it with mostly solid food. Much different story.
Forgot one, anyone that knows of Jimmy John’s Gargantuans might know. I got 30 bucks to try and eat 3 of those in 20 minutes. And I did, and i smelled like cold cuts for 3 days after.
A pound and a half of cold cuts including genoa salami, capicola, smoked ham, roast beef, turkey breast, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, italian dressing. Imagine eating 3 of those damn things, makes me want vomit.

I like to call that move a "poo and rally I had to do that (twice) at one of those brazilian steakhouses (where the waiters walk around with big slabs of meat and slice off pieces for you). I went about 2 hours after a squat workout, had two platefuls of black beans and then ate meat for 90 minutes. The other 8 people at my table sat around for about half an hour watching me eat, at which point the bastard waiters stopped coming by, which is horseshit considering it cost about $45 per head. Also, to be fair, the portions they give you each time 'round are fairly small, and I had to spend a good bit of time waiting for my favorite meats to come by, so I don’t know how significant my total actually was.[/quote]
Rei do Gado! haha that place is good but expensive.

On two occasions I have eaten a 5lb steak in a restaurant in order to get it for free ( it was like 45.00 if you failed to finish it) When I ordered the steak, I had a mental vision of what a 5lb steak would look like-I had grown up on a farm and had helped butcher cows, so I thought I had a pretty good idea. The steak was at least twice the size of what I had envisioned. I managed to finish it within the 90 minute time that was allowed.
The real pain was about two days later when it was ready to leave my body. It got so bad I almost had to call in a mid-wife. I was sitting on the toilet trying to do Lamaze breathing exercises.
I also once ate 35 eggs on a bet.

A five pound steak is damn impressive. You definetely need a heavy dose of fiber to pass that sucker.

If anyone lives in the bay area, California there is a resaurant in walnut creek called McCovey’s. it is named after the great willie mccovey and is decked out with SF Giants gear and other baseball memerobelia.
gettin to the point here, they have a 521 burger to honor the number of HR willie had, it is a 44 oz angus patty on a whole bread role and is stacked with all the toppings. if you can finish it, it’s free, only one person has done it. Im not the one who did, although i did try, i got about 3/4 of the way through and just couldnt move. i challenge anyone to eat that much meat and then all the bread that goes with it.
do you have to eat all of the fries and shit too, or just the burger?
i’ve eaten there a few times … that place is pretty decent for a sportspub
i could totally own that burger[/quote]
everything that comes with it, i think its a large stack of fries and a side salad or something, but you gotta do it all son, go big or go home…
