Um, beer is like food, right?

If you're going to binge and want an excuse, wouldn't you rather do it on something other than potential pig testicles and other lovely animal "bi products" that are in the disgusting pieces of "meat" known as hot dogs?
I love the occasional hot dog.

I also love deep fried bull balls.

*raises an eyebrow* Deep fried bull balls? *pukes*

How about a baby carrot eating contest...or..

an angel food cake eating contest.

I remember when I went to a camp when I was a teen and they had a contest to see who could stick the most large marshmellows in their mouth and say "Fluffy bunny"....I didn't win..*pouts*

I'd be down for... a CHINESE FOOD EATING CONTEST! Mmmm... I know it's so anti-nutritious, but it's just so DELICIOUS! A Mexican food eating contest might be good, too, unless I had to eat sour cream. I hate sour cream. And after I participated in a contest like that, I'd probably feel so gross afterwards that I'd never want to eat Chinese or Mexican again... SCORE!

A salad eating contest would also be amazing, as would a fruit eating contest.

I've seen interviews with the gal who wins a lot --and they have lots of contests, not just hotdogs....Anyway she does say she is in a fair bit of pain for a day or so afterwards. Most of the winners are skinny as a rail, I dont think alot of the food actually gets processed. They dont chew it at all.

Icecream is good, but cant have a contest with that, can you imagine the brainfreeze?

I was in a pie eating contest once, but it was one of those stupid college things, and it was only one pie....I was better at the beer chug. But ahhhh lawsuits, by my senior year it was "near beer" and that's just gross.

I saw a show about competitve eaters a couple of months ago. The Japanese man who holds the previous record was one of the featured "eaters".

The all spend a significant amount of time training before contests - and none of them appear to be obese. As far as the puking goes - the japanese man doesn't puke - or so he claims. apparently its a huge insult to vomit after a meal. He went into a restaurant where they knew who he was(he's a huge celebrity in Japan) The owner produced enough food to feed an army. He ate every bite - it was an honor thing.

The show was freakish - but intriguing!

Imagine "training" to binge! LOL

It just blows my freakin' MIND! HOW can these COMPETITIVE EATERS be skinny and/or ripped when they *train* to binge.

"A FAIR bit of pain"? I'd imagine she felt like death. I honestly don't know how these people do it.
