TUNICA, Miss., - Competitive eating champion Joey Chestnut added another record to his total by downing 121 Twinkies in 6 minutes at a Mississippi event.
Chestnut came in first during the weekend at the Major League Eating-sanctioned inaugural World Twinkie-Eating Championship at Bally's Casino in Tunica.
His closest competitor, Matt "The Megatoad" Stonie, downed 111 of the cream-filled cakes in the time allowed, the Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel reported Tuesday.
Miki Sudo, the only woman in the competition, came in third with 71 Twinkies.
Chestnut's record-setting feast amounts to 10.2 pounds of Twinkies, containing 18,150 calories, the Sentinel said.
Reminds me of COOL HAND LUKE with Paul "blue eyes" Newman. He stuffed down hard boiled eggs.
I’ve compared the contents label of the boxes- old-vs-new and there are different ingredients. The spongecake has been made denser and vitamins have been added that affect the taste. The overall product is not as light and airy as the old version. It’s chewier ‘spongecake’. So yes, the recipe has been changed a bit.
Oh yeah, BTW I'm texting this from my flight and the stewardess took a photo of the aisle for me. Can you guess where I am?
Sounds like someone’s working up a “twinky defense”.
Seems like gluttony to me.
My Mom told me that was a sin.
:-)
And the other plus is Mayor Bloomturd wet his panties.
Michael Moore haz a sad. :-(
Hey Joey leggo my twinks.
lol.
i consider it a contest he won. ;)
Best movie in the history of mankind.....
I thought so. They taste more like home made sponge cake than the old airy cake.
Dats my boy!
No way the picture is real!
Oh my gosh. Delta just charged me $25 for ONE bag (not an extra one). And this guy paid for one seat? He should have paid for three!
Most people could stand to shed a few pounds in our sitting-at-our-desk-8-hours-per-day job, but I see little reason why people allow themselves to get obese, let alone morbidly obese.
Wow.
Maître d’: “Ah, good afternoon, sir; and how are we today?”
Mr. Chesnut: “Better.”
Maître d’: “Better?”
Mr. Chestnut: “Better get a bucket, I’m gonna throw up.”

Maitre D: And finally, monsieur, a wafer-thin mint.
Mr Chesnut: No.
Maitre D: Oh sir! It’s only a tiny little thin one.
Mr Chesnut: No. F-— off - I’m full...
Maitre D: Oh sir... it’s only wafer thin.
Mr Chesnut: Look - I couldn’t eat another thing. I’m absolutely stuffed. Bugger off.
Maitre D: Oh sir, just... just one...
Mr Chesnut: Oh all right. Just one.
