A buddy has thrown down the gauntlet and claims that he can eat a fully stocked vending machine over the course of a business day (7:30 am till Midnight).
A small syndicate has put together a sizeable stash for the effort.
With many sidebets on the line, my question to the big eaters on the forum: Should I take the yay or nay side of the action? Over/Under of 9:00 p.m.?
Two rows of chips, 3 rows of assorted candy, 1 row of cookies and 1 row of chewing gum and breath mints.
Sounds like an easy eat.
That's a Hell of a business day! Sounds like graduate school to me.Quote:

amazing :rolleyes:
I think its duable, however I would not want to be the one doing it... I take it he can't puke right? I would bet he does it if his diet consists of fried greasy things, if he eats healthy I think he will puke......
O get him to eat the breathmints first, that should be interesting..
Does he have to eat the gum or can he just chew it and spit it out?
I would do it. As long as the syndicate paid for all the food...
Anyone who comes to my neck of the Alps (wherever that is and whenever I make it back) is welcome to challenge me to a tartiflette or raclette eating contest. I may not win a speed test but quantity - good luck if you think you can beat me (unless your name is Telepath...)
We did something similar at work. But the guy had to eat a 2 lb. summer sausage (smoked hickory flavor) in 2 hours. There was $1000 on the line if he could do it.
There were some other rules... No puking, no utensils, had to be done in a public place (Hooters), etc.
Here are the photos... http://photos.yahoo.com/motosausage2
Needless to say, he ate 11 out of 17 inches worth of sausage.
Edit: There's also a pic of a guy drinking a bottle of Hooters hot sauce in 17 seconds. He got $60 for it.
A guy I worked with at a camp ate 22 ice cream sandwiches in about 15-20 min. Didn't puke... he stopped cause we ran out em.
I say he can do it.
Take the under. Should be no problem finishing that over the course of the day.
I gave a work study student in my office a Chipotle gift certificate for drinking a quart of soy sauce in 15 minutes. He didn't get sick, but his stomach wasn't right for about a day.
Spanky, For a grand your friend could'nt finish the sausage. damn I'd bet I could do it in an hour.
edit: I'm sure teh vending machine can be done in that time frame.
This thing was nasty. I wanted to give it a try, but I'm known as a big eater and nobody would let me do it. I took a taste afterwards and realized I probably couldn't have stomached it either.Quote:

Note the exponential pay scale in the photos. He did get some money (we wound up giving him $500 for the pain and suffering).
I recently won high honors in an eating competition, and this bet is way too easy. If he doesn't complete the task, he is throwing the contest on purpose or is a 95 pound girl.
Mulletizer, I wouldn't toss that bravdo around lightly. Dare we ever showdown in the Alps, I'd bet they have to truck in so much more racelette from surrounding villages that there will be shortages and rioting.
Spanky, I can eat that whole sausage, faster and for just $500. Set it up, you can earn the side action and provide the defribulator.
I am an eating champion.
No fuggen way will he do that. Just one row of chips, assuming the machine is full, has to be what? Six wide and eight deep? 48 bags times two rows = 96 bags of chips before he's even started to work on the candy. It's unpossible. The cookies will finish him.
If he did have to eat the gum, it would make for some interested flatulence.
I once ate a box oo 16 Ring Dings in 15 minutes - with everyone in my company watching. The sales guys were standing around chanting "Puke! Puke! Puke!"
I didn't quite puke, but it was one of the least pleasant things I've ever done.
I say no way can he do it.
i once took an entire red-pepper-flake shaker (the big parmesan-cheese-sized ones) as a shot. for free. it was ok unitl i realized that the powdered aspect meant i wouldn't be able to swallow it all at once and had to chew all the flakes.
follow your dreams. anything is possible. i'm living proof. beefcake. beefcake! BEEFCAKE!!!!!
i say bet on him, as that will allow you greater heckling rights. half the fun of having friends is heckling them while they do stuff that will potentially make them puke/get them injured/arrested.
It's not as bad as Roo describes, but he's gotta go three deep, six wide and seven down.
126 items in 16.5 hours.
I love food bets.
In college there was a guy named 'buddah.' he was a portly asian fellow. I forget the economics of the bet, but you know those logs that get sliced into cold cuts? we bet him that he couldn't eat the entire meat log in once sitting.
he got himself a knife, fork, and a huge bottle of mustard and destroyed an entire turkey cold cut log in a few hours. one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
In high school, this guy Adam ate a foot long meatball subway in seven bites.
I say the food won't be a problem, but swallowing the glass/metal case and power cord should prove difficult.
will there be any puff-puff-give involved? methinks that'd alter the bet.
it seems like a pretty tall order. realistically, there've got to be pounds upon pounds of chocolate between all of those candy bars and more grease in the bags of chips than on the faces of a thousand pimply teenagers.
i'd say he can't do it, and i'm a huge fan of bulk eating.
anyone ever been to that breakfast place in gunnison that serves the huge pancakes? my roomate ate a full stack one morning, and the cook said that he'd only seen six other people eat a full stack.
Does he actually get anything if he does it, or just the adulation of everyone who witnesses it?
The candy will definitely screw him. Bet against the home team, there's no way.

Food dares are cool! When I was an 11 year old girl my friend (another 11 year old girl) and I consumed this special mongo-massive ice-cream sundae between the 2 of us at a local ice cream shop on a dare from some friends. It consisted of like 5 gallons of ice cream, huge glops of hot fudge, caramel, chocolate chips, nuts, whipped cream, sprinkles, cherries, strawberry sauce and maybe 7 bananas cut up. I'm telling ya, this thing was huuuge. It was like the size of a bucket. It took almost 2 hrs but we did it...no puking or anything. We even drank the sauce-y mixed-up junk left on the bottom. The bowl was bone dry when we finished. We could barely walk home though. I think we rolled.
Some business folks sitting nearby having lunch were so impressed that they picked up the tab for us! It was really easy to do, they didn't understand that for me ice cream is its own food group. :D
