The Whale of Ignorance
Saturday, October 25, 2003
 
I just ate 10 hot dogs in 12 minutes. It's something to do on Friday night if you've given up on partiality.

It wasn't competitive eating, since only my roommate was present and she wasn't eating, but it shared the format of the most popular eating event: Nathan's 12-minute hot dog eating contest. The circumstances were less than ideal, though, since I'd eaten dinner only a few hours before.

The poorest decision, other than attempting to stuff myself with hot dogs, was buying the cheapest hot dogs available - Zacky Farms Chicken Dogs. As seen on tv, I separated the dogs from the buns and dipped the latter in water. I found that I only had to supress my gag reflex when I was eating the dogs (holding my nose helped), and that when I ate the buns my stomach calmed down. I didn't feel an urge to vomit afterwards, either, which leads me to think that I could have eaten 12 or 13 quality hot dogs.
