This article on competitive eater Sonya Thomas is very interesting! The International Federation of Competitive Eating ranks her 2nd in the world, and she's the most likely person to beat Takeru Kobayashi at the famed Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest (who holds the world record at 50). A few years ago we considered going - but 20,000 people crammed in Coney Island on the 4th of July didn't sound like a good idea.Her recent records include:
March 20, 2005 -- 46 dozen (552) oysters in 10 minutes.
Feb. 12, 2005 -- 25 grilled cheese sandwiches in 10 minutes.
Jan. 22, 2005 -- one 9-pound burger with cheese in 48 minutes, 10 seconds.
Nov. 27, 2004 -- 52 hard-boiled eggs in five minutes.
Sept. 29, 2004 -- 48 soft-shell chicken tacos in 11 minutes.
Sept. 5, 2004 -- 5.09 pounds of buffalo wings (162 wings) in 12 minutes
Aug. 21, 2004 -- 9.76 pounds of lobster meat (38 soft-shell lobsters) in 12 minutes.
July 4, 2004 -- 32 Nathan's hot dogs and buns in 12 minutes, a new women's world record (and American record)
Keep in mind Sonya is 99 pounds! Go Asian American women!
