Taiwan student dies during fast food binge

Fri Oct 24, 1:55 am ET

TAIPEI (Reuters Life!) – A man died just as he was about to win a university binge eating contest in Taiwan, scoffing down two buns filled with rice and cheese as well as some of his teammate's food, the college said on Friday.

The 23-year-old, described as tall and strong, vomited relentlessly, passed out and died on Thursday during the "Big Stomach King" contest at Dayeh University in central Taiwan. He had pulled ahead of 30 other teams.

"I can't say why he died," said Huang Te-hsiang, the university's dean of student affairs. "He had been in the contest before. He was a strong guy."

The graduate student, surnamed Chen, may have eaten too fast rather than too much, a campus publicist said. Chen was on course to win the five-year-old annual competition, she said. He would have won T$2,000 ($60).

Taiwan's education ministry has halted campus-based eating contests while an investigation is launched.

Speaking of ramen, I grubbed at Santouka Ramen again...and had their Toroniku Shio Ramen (Salt Flavored Ramen w/ Special Pork). I am so enamored with their pork I did a little research to determine why it's so melt in your mouth delicious. Apparently the "toroniku" is actually pork cheeks which accounts for why it's so delicuously soft and tender. It has certainly won me over. :bonk:

I will say this Nasu-san...the meat is so soft your molars will hardly break a sweat. :mrgreen:

Oh my. That certainly looks delicious. :drooling: What cheeks are those though? Top or bottom? :hehe:

Now that you provided that link...I can see those tasty, sweet desserts.

I picked these up at Mitsuwa the other day. "R rated" Wasabi Mayo Cheetos...they are a serious kick to the head...with that sharp heat typical of Wasabi...pretty good if you like that sort of thing :)
