The Dangers of Competitive Eating

Taiwan Student Dies During Fast Food Eating Contest

Personally, I find it odd that Gluttony is celebrated in these circles. They had a guy recently eat the 15 lb hamburger with 5 lbs of toppings in a bar close to here. I mean imho, that is just nasty.

eating contests are gross.

pity he died though.

Yeah it's a shame. What a way to go. So I wonder what his excuse will be for dying while violating on of the seven deadly sins? Do you think God will say "Hey I told ya so"?

I can eat with the best of them, close to 4,000 calories day, but I'll never understand competitive eating.
