i've considered bringing in some ripe Durian.. but decided against it.

Curry is never bad. ;) The stinky tofu isn't as stinky when covered in sauce. It's still sticks, but not as much. :hehe:

Eater Swallows 67 Hamburgers In 8 Minutes
Winner Nets $10,000 Prize

POSTED: 8:41 am EST November 21, 2005

CHATANOOGA, Tenn. -- Competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi swallowed 67 hamburgers in eight minutes to win $10,000 and retain his title as Krystal Square Off World Hamburger Eating Champion.

The Japanese contender fended off San Diego State University engineering student Joey Chestnut, who was tied with Kobayashi at 60 burgers with 37 seconds left.

"If I didn't have Chestnut pushing me, I wouldn't have eaten so much this year," the 172-pound Kobayashi said through a translator. "My arms weren't moving as fast as I wanted them to."

Chestnut, 21, said his failure to dunk one of the 2.5-square-inch burgers in water slowed him.


"His experience carried him," Chestnut said of his rival.

Kobayashi finished 69 Krystals in the 2004 contest. He also holds the title of hot dog-eating champion, after eating 49 hot dogs in 12 minutes at the Nathan's Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog-Eating Contest at Coney Island, N.Y.

Saturday's event was sanctioned by the International Federation of Competitive Eating.
