Geez, I thought gluttony was a sin. Well, the bought-and-paid-for pope just said homos are ok too.

When I was courting my future wife, I was telling her the story of how I took the college bus to the Winchester (VA) Mall after lunch, and came upon a Subway speed eating contest, and easily beat the West Virginian plaid shirt guys in the same contest. Fastest foot long consumed won. I won Subway free coupons, movie tickets, a tea set and other things I don’t remember.

She was not impressed.

To me, the most impressive thing someone can do is eat a large plate of something.

Pathetic ...

As someone with a somewhat high regard of myself and my abilities, I thought signing up for an eating competition would be just what I needed to prove to the world what I've always suspected: I'm worth something.

It just gets worse ...

Competitive eaters are the backbone of this country.

This woman is deranged. Seriously.

I think this was supposed to be funny. Maybe.

Well, she did marry you.

My mother in law told me about the time my husband, after a school shooting match, downed two party pizzas (18 inchers), a pitcher of root beer and then came home and ate a full dinner.

I was impressed. :)

You weren’t thinking, “I am not cooking that much.”

Guys, RUN, don't walk away from this one.

Not for a challenge or competition, but years ago I took my Grandmother out of a nursing home for a meal where ever she wanted.

She opted to stay local vs going to San Angelo or Abilene to eat.

At the local cafe, we accidentally ordered KC For Two…twice (five pounds of sirloin total) plus baked potatoes and sides.

Took us just over a hour but we ate it all.
