Woman Eats 35 Bratwursts in 10 Minutes
Edited on Sun Aug-07-05 06:32 PM by Placebo


Sonya Thomas, at 99 pounds, gobbled her way to another speed-eating title over the weekend by attacking a Wisconsin staple — the bratwurst.

The woman known as The Black Widow on the competitive-eating circuit downed 35 brats in 10 minutes to win the first Johnsonville Brat-Eating World Championship. She edged out her nearest competitor by half a brat to win.

"I don't know where she puts it," spectator Sue Van De Kreeke said. "I got sick watching her."

The previous bratwurst-eating record was 19 1/2 brats in 10 minutes.

2. How can someone that small
have a stomach large enough to handle all that?
Geez, you'd think she'd be 400 lbs. I've seen these eating contests where the smaller contestant will win.

11. Binger
would be my guess. I weigh 108, there's no way my stomach could handle that much food.

14. I weigh substantially more than that
and there's no way I could eat that. I remember trying to eat one of those king-sized steaks one time at one of those grill-your-own places. I didn't touch food for three days afterwards.

4. The Black Widow rocks at competitive food eating
She's won Wing Bowl a few times in Philly and she's up against some massive size eaters!

6. I've heard that the smaller sized
competitive eaters have an advantage over larger people. They don't have as much pressure on their stomach as large people due to fat.

7. I saw her win a grilled cheese sandwich
contest the other day. I just wonder what her digestion is like. I know a lot of small people with huge appetites-an uncle of mine could out eat anyone I knew but always remained very thin. A friend of ours, who weighs just a little more than the Black Widow, always wins the 48oz steak at a Texas restaurant by eating it (and all the trimmings) within an hour.

I eat a bowl of ice cream and gain 20 pounds. Go figure.

10. I'm the same way as you
I went on a diet and started working out. I only consume about 1700 calories a day. I have just started to lose significant weight after being on the healthy regimin for 2.5 weeks.

13. Meanwhile, children are starving.
Just thought I'd be the wet blanket in this thread!

It's disgusting that people eat so much food just for kicks.

And they always LOOK disgusting too. Yuck!

20. There is absolutely NO WAY I could do that.
I could probably down three or four bunless brats if I were properly hungry and motivated by something like a contest. 35? I'm amazed.
