Mission, aren't you a vegetarian?

Apologies if this question was answered somewhere between pages 7-46, I did not have time to skim the whole thread.

I don't believe the question was answered. I used to be a vegetarian, but I gave that up in either April or May of this year.

Yum. Goes best with the antifreeze dipping sauce.

Delicious!

I don't think it's anti-freeze, because anti-freeze has a sweet taste. I watched a documentary about a woman who offed her husband that way, flu-like symptoms until death, took quite some time, but she kept spiking his iced tea with anti-freeze.

Heres my understanding.
Dec 21 Saturday at THE D downtown 3PM.
Ive actually agreed to videotape. Got a 32gb SD card on order from ebay so I can video the whole 1 hour challenge and 10 min keep it down finish in 1 shot.
Plan on placing my tablet next to Mission146 with a big clock showing the time so its on the videotape.
My flight arrives Vegas 11:30 am that day so hopefully will have no problem with Delta switching in Atlanta.
If everything goes according to schedule with Delta, I'll be there.

Get Together 6pm Main Street Station brew pub

Well, he's obviously no fool, so he wouldn't even be putting this out there if he didn't believe he could do it.

He's probably doing everything he can think of to make this go smoothly.

I got a visual of him jogging up hundreds of steps wearing a hoody and "Eye of the Tiger" blaring in the background like Stallone in Rocky.

I can't even eat ten of the damn things, but that's me. I'm thinking he needs some carbonation with it to help cut the grease and make him burp.

Get someone in his corner rubbing his belly and massaging the throat and maybe choke it closed once the last one passes?

It might be helpful to know what time they change out the cooking oil, when it's fresh it's lighter.


Just trying to help......What fun. Only in America would competitive eating be considered a sport

If the Wizard isn't taking anymore bets on the "no, he can't do it", I will take some of that action.

That sounds good. I'm not thinking big money, just $100. (If I lose, I'll send it to you via snail mail) Terms will be exactly the same as the Wizard's bet. Deal? :)

Nice, I've decided not to order all 100 at once, anyway, they get a bit too firm. Probably 40-40-20.

80, twenty-six minutes, yesterday.

I could have probably busted out the full 100, but I want there to at least be a little doubt in my mind come the event, lest I get too confident, screw around, and lose.

Ugg..... I really wish you would have kept that information to yourself, that just killed all the side action. and possibly some fun. If we know you can already get close then it wont be as fun. Then again maybe the fix is in and you will go down on number 90

It stayed down, I've hardly eaten today, but it stayed down. I'm 95% sure I could have done 20 more.

there are so many variables that could make this fail.

jet lag, getting hicups for eating too fast and then out they come, broken tooth on a hard piece of fake food, burn his mouth on a piece that he thought was cooled just too name a few.

The only chicken-nugget specific preparation I will do is probably to eat 25 four days before the event and 25 two days before the event just to get used to them. Any competitive eater will tell you he has to be used to what he is eating or it's hopeless.

Yes, the McNuggets from the other day are it until the event. I've actually gained a couple pounds since I first accepted the challenge, so I'm hoping to get back to the weight I was at that time.

In honor of the Mission Challenge, today I ordered 20 McNuggets for lunch. The first 12 went down easily but I was only able to eat 4 more after that. On a good day I might be able to eat 20 but I would be miserable afterwards.

They hit your gut like lead and just lay there.
That's because they're so dense. They start
out as a thick sludge, then get solidified and
fried. They take up a lot of room in your
stomach and take a long time to digest.
