Sonya Thomas hits a new record!
I saw this woman at Bratwurst Days here in Sheboygan win the brat-eating contest.

100-Pound Woman Wins Turkey-Eating Contest
Thursday, November 24, 2005

NEW YORK

America's Thanksgiving holiday is known for massive feasts that produce bloated bellies. But one group of serious eaters took it a step farther, engaging in a pre-Thanksgiving turkey-eating contest that challenged all to shove as much bird into their mouths as they could manage in 12 minutes.

This group of America's finest eaters assembled at Artie's Deli in New York on Wednesday to eat 10-pound roast turkeys in a contest sponsored by the gambling site GoldenPalace.com.

As the contest progressed and the meat became moister in the drumsticks and shoulders, Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas, Chip Simpson and Tim Janus gained speed.

(snip)

How much turkey did Thomas have to eat in order to claim victory? It was 4 pounds, 3.1 ounces, all in a mere 12 minutes.

2. Especially the "fast ones,"
Like this one in the article.
Yup, stuff yer face with as much food as possible as fast as possible.

I mean, 4+ pounds of turkey in 12 minutes? Blech.
