    A few days ago me and some friends had just finished eating at Nandos and a few of the guys got deserts. For those that dont know, the nandos deserts are like these cheesecake kinda things that come in a plate about 1 inch deep and about 4 inches in diameter.

    BET 1
    One of them starts complaining that the desert is too rich and filling.....anyways to cut a long story short one of my friends is willing to give me £100 if i can eat 10 of the deserts, which i have to buy myself (£3 each), so if i can do it i make £70.

    BET 2
    Carrying on from that convo we were messing around with different things on the menu when the same guy who wants to bet me says me can consume a whole double platters!!! Thats 2 whole chickens and 5 large sides (which we agreed whoudl have to be 3 fries and 2 Rice. I said that there was no way he could do it and that i'd lay him the same bet as he gave me.

    ABOUT US
    Me 5"11 170lbs not much of an eater but have a really sweet tooth on account of growing up in a sweet shop
    Friend 6"2 185lbs can eat most things in half the time of normal people, pretty big appetite.

    So OT what do you think of the bets?? surely i'm safe in betting on the fact that he cant eat 2 whole chickens and 5 sides.

    Your friend should have to pay for the deserts plus 100.

    size has nothing to do with how much u can eat. If he gets water you should to, seems fair. the desert sounds a bit easier. it will be moist which makes it easier to swallow then fries or chicken.

    while discussing the hot dog eating contest lastnight, me and my buddy started arguing about the number of hot dogs i could eat. I claimed i could eat 14 dogs in 12 minutes. The bet was my 50 to his 75, im not sure if these are terrible odds or not. I decided to do a trial today and ate 6 dogs in about 6.5 minutes. I ate these as regular, and did not soak the buns and eat them seperate. After the 6 i was feeling a little bit full. what type of numbers do you think, or have you put up.

    Rhetorical question...

    Am I the only one who quickly scanned OT and thought I read "Eating Poop Bet"?

    back when I trained for competitive eating.(damn my wife not letting me go!! I could have been somebody) I could push mid 20s which is good enough to Q in most Quilifiers.
    14 hot dogs wont even get close to filling the stomach up. Your main prob will be jaw strength, and your will/gag reflex. Your body tells you , you are full way before the stomach gets close to being full.
    how long till u try this? chew alot of gum I mean 6-10 pieces at a time, then the day before dont chew to give the jaw a chance to rest. Work on taking small fast bites. want to chew as little as possible. Eat hotdog then bun. Doesnt matter if you dunk bun or not, but take a swig after each hotdog/bun to help keep mouth moist and to help swallow.
    need to try to get your first 6 down in under 4 minutes, You will slow after that. when i use to train I would shoot for 6 in 2 minutes, then slow to a 1 every 30 seconds for as long as I could. The main thing was trying to go as fast as I could on 6 then try and maintain pace.

    honestly if u can do 14 with out much training. you might do well on the curcuit lol. 20 is still good enough to get close to Qing at most stops before nathans.

    Baughman from a your trained point of view, on a scale of 1-10, how hard is it to eat 2 whole chickens + 3 sides of chips and 2 sides of rice?

    plus if it came down to it i'd gladly accept that i cant have any water with my deserts if he cant with his chicken, as i think eating 2 chickens without fluids is HARD!
