Shoot. Reminds me of the guy who opened a resto and offered an all
you can eat baked stuffed shrimp dinner for x dollars. The biggest
guy in town waddled in ( we're talking over 400 lbs here) in and
downed 28 shrimp. Needless to say, THAT offer was deleted from the
menu.

83 restaurants that give you the meal, if you can eat it.

The only one that interests me in the least is #72.
But I'm unlikely to ever be in Tennessee.

No way I could even eat one pound of meat without
a major gout attack.

I only read the first few, but some of those don't look too hard. A
28" pizza between 2 people in a half hour? And then the next one on
the list is the same size pizza to be eaten by one person.

I think I'll go for #1 first.

So what is the Professional Eaters Strategy the day before the event?
I know you're not supposed to attempt anything with an empty stomach.
Do you pig out 8-12 hours before the event to stretch out the stomach?
Or limit yourself to certain kinds of foods?

And can make a living off of being a "Professional Eater"? Sure would
save on groceries, but I assume there's an entry fee for many the
contests, and travel expenses. Not to mention hiring and agent and
publicist. Maybe it's an overlooked "profession" for a reason. Right
down there with "Professional Slot Machine Gambler".

What's a 'baked stuffed shrimp dinner' consist of?

And downing 28 shrimp/prawns is no biggie...... 28 single prawns anyway!!

must have been a small town. I've gone to the most expensive buffet
in town a couple times only to get their spicy kimchi soup when i have
a cold. Both times when I asked for the check the waiters look at me
in astonishment, "Soup. That all!?!?!?!?". And then I ask for some
to go and they happily give me a quart-size take-out container.

I was criticized for calling a Chinese dish, "lied Lice" here a while
ago and the Chinese have just as many harmless stereotypes about White
people as we do about them.

The Chinese possibly have a lot more stereotypes about us, there's a

No thanks, none of them interest me. Maybe 30 years ago I may have tried
one or two, but not now. The portions are just plain ridiculous to try.

Agreed. But #72 is doesn't require eating tons of food and I love hot
peppers contests, that for sure is the one I wouldn't miss
