Competitive eating - which food would you choose?

[TastyReuben]

Bacon…pounds and pounds of streaky bacon.

 

[badjak]

Spicy small meatballs....
I make them in quite large amounts with the idea of freezing them. Then I eat one, just to check if they came out OK. Next thing I know, they are all gone

Freshly roasted peanuts or borrelnootjes* is another weak point. Once I start eating them, I just gotta finish them.

Chocolate... obvious vegan and very good quality, nutty definitely chocolate.

Failing that, raspberries!

 

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

Baby plum or on the vine cherry tomatoes. Once I start on those I can’t stop.

Raw oysters. (Period)

Yep. I could probably join you on that one.
There's an island just off the north-east coast of Venezuela called Margarita. Incredible mangrove swamps, and therefore, incredible oysters. They're not big - about half the size of oysters I've eaten in the US and England, but they're really yummy.
One day, there were 3 of us sitting on the beach, and the oyster man came by. 24 dozen later...

Well, we have a three way oyster eating competition lined up then!

I reckon raspberries is a good choice: low calorie, low fat and not going to fill you up too quickly.

4 way...
I'll join

Sushi.. As I will never do this IRL it doesn't matter that you'll probably not be having a very happy stomach after. But it's definitely the food I can devour the most of in one session! Really good doughnuts from a bakery are also a contender..

Sea food for sure, I need all the Omega-3 food I can get.

And it tastes better than all the other proteins! I'm with you. I'd say lobster maybe.

Oh well then, that’s another kettle of fish entirely…but I’m passing on a kettle of fish.

In my heyday, pizza. We used to have a place near us in Minnesota that served 24-inch round pizzas. I could easily eat a whole one myself. Measure that out. It’s impressive.

Certain sweets, like Twizzlers, I can eat until I puke (and have done). Potato chips/crisps, same thing (and same on the puking).

French fries, fried potatoes. Eggs - I’d never eat six eggs in a sitting, but slap a dozen deviled egg halves in front of me and POOF! they’re gone before you can say Cool Hand Luke.

Do you remember that pizza buffet place CiCi's?

What might eating large quantities do to the digestive tract?

I guess eating large quantities of anything is going to wreak havoc...

Yes I've changed my mind from lobster to sushi.

Lol, hard pass for me.

I'm with Gone Hiking I'll pass. Especially with my Diverticulitis. Overeating is a pretty big trigger for me. Lets say I didn't have any health problems and I was 25. I would probably choose cheeseburgers. Simply because I absolutely love a good burger!!! lol

Yup - I went once.

Yup - I went once.

We took the kids when they were young. It wasn't the worst I'd ever eaten.
