    Wow, Adrian Morgan came really close to Sonya though the judging may have been difficult with such small differences between many of the eaters. No matter, Bertoletti clearly smoked it in sweets as usual and the rest looked like they had a good fun, Sonya still took home $1000. Those cakes looked really difficult to eat.

    I expected the #1 and #2 finishers to place where they did, but I didn’t expect Adrian to do as well as he did, finishing in front of Bob by over 3/4 of a cake for third place.

    Pat is just about unbeatable in sweets, as he has been for about the last four years. If Joey were a sweets eater he’d make it very, very close; he doesn’t seem to care for sugary foods.

    Larell, again, you express a wonderful attitude. 🙂

    Not only did Adrian do very well, but Pretty Boy beat out the other heavy hitters- Booker, Flash, & Kong

    It’s no longer an upset or a surprise when Adrian does really well at a contest. He’s become a top level eater!
