Kobayashi wins again
So this may not be very ethnic, or all that cool... but this humble blogger just has a thing for competitive eating... On sunday, relatively little, 132 lbs Takeru "Tsunami" Kobayashi of Japan won his forth straight hot dog eating title with 53 hotdogs in 12 minutes. That's about one hot dog, bun included, per 13 seconds! Finishing second and third, are both sub 130lb competitors, another Japanese dude, and a woman. Who says you got to be big (or american for that matter?) to be a symbol of over consumptive Americanism?
Um... I wasn't serious about that symbol of over consumptive Americanism thing... you know, seriously, it is OKAY sometimes to just have a sense of humor about eating a ridiculous amount of hot dogs.
Japan's Kobayashi still top dog of competitive eating [Yahoo! News, thanks Laure]
53 hot dogs x 14g of fat per hot dog = 742g of fat consumed in 12mins
Normal fat consumption in a day = 20g
That's messed up yo'. He probably shortened his lifespan a couple years right there, unless they have some purging technique for after.
