    I was getting on Lyle’s case for quite some time only because i didnt like the organization he belonged to but these numbers he just put up are quite impressive. He has gotten alot better . A hell of a lot better. If he were a MLE i would have to say he would be right there with some of the big guns. Try eating 8lbs of chilli

    Liz,

    Thanks for write-up regarding the Pickle contest. Brian Seikan’s participation (as well as other IFOCE Eaters) was based on their fear that they would have gotten beaten by Independent Eaters thus exposing the myth of IFOCE dominance. Q. How come the same IFOCE guys who participated (with the exception of Kevin L) in 2004 decided not to participate in 2006? Their hatred for Independent Eaters movement was no different in 2004 than it is now….You mentioned that some IFOCE indentured Servants (my definition) think that the term rival does not apply because we are not good enough to be their rivals. However, They had the perfect opportunity to prove that we are inferior but decided to punk out. (Especially considering that according to most reports the Shea’s would not have punished them) If their real reason was that they were obliging the Shea’s then their reasoning reflects an even higher level of cowardice. Why is it that we allow them to enter our contest but they prevent us from entering their contests (even contests we have already entered and they get involved in the last minute)?

    What’s also interesting is that the IFOCE guys who are poor Eaters seem to have the biggest mouths. Most of the top IFOCE guys (Who are great Eaters and good guys) seem to have the least to say.

    I suggest that those pathetic has-been (or never-been) IFOCE Eaters shut-up and prove their self worth at the table and either take AICE up on our challenges or go back to ballet class. It’s absurd to complain when you were AWOL from the Pickle contest. It’s going to be fun watching some of you NY based IFOCE has-beens acting like the idiots that you are when the spot light is no longer on you. Keep the focus on your masters (George & Dick Shea) who have found better Eaters and stop blaming AICE for your pathetic decline.

    So, OJ (or is it Shea, Nerz or one of your ivy league prankster friends) how long will it be before you remove my comments? Why don’t you admit your connection to the IFOCE and stop pretending that this is an objective blog and that it’s not stealth marketing?

    Mark Lyle today is as good as any eater in the IFOCE’s top three. Had he been at the CCF contest today he probqbly would have beaten everybody. Just look at the anemic totals from CCF. They are pathetic.

    “Bad” food is rarely an excuse. Does 4 dozen eggs taste good? Did Leman’s dog food taste good? (except maybe to him) Do 100 + Jalapeno’s tatse good? Does a gallon or 2 of water taste good? NO!

    Frankly, its an almost rare treat when the food in a contest does taste good. Nathans Suck, same w/Krystals, Pickles,

    By the way, you may want to stop trashing the food in a contest featuring food from a sponsor. Contest wise, its almost better that the food tastes bad. When it tastes good its a shame that we don’t have the time to enjoy it, or we’re mixing it with water insted of milk,(sweets) beer,(pizza) wine, etc.

    Congrats Mark, stop yelling at all of us, & sorry to all who now, in the past, or in the future have anything wrong with themselves or there families.

    THE ONLY PERSON I EVER RECALL YELLING AT DURING/AFTER A CONTEST AND EVEN IN MY OWN MIND WHILE POSTING ON THIS SITE IS THE PRICK AT EGGS WHO COULDN’T COUNT TO 21 UNLESS HE WAS NAKED. JUST BECAUSE I WRITE IN CAPS DOESNT MEAN I AM YELLING.

    AS FAR AS MY FOOD QUALITY COMENT. I WOULD BE WELL WITHIN MY RIGHTS TO BASH THE CCF TOTALS. I AM POSITIVE THE FOOD WAS BAD BUT THAT HASNT STOPPED OTHERS FROM BASHING AICE EATERS IN THE PAST WHEN THEY HAVE EATEN “SUB PAR” FOOD ITEMS. I AM NOT A VENGEFUL PERSON OR I COULD EASILY SLAM THE CCF TOTALS.

    ALL SHOULD BE IN AGREEMENT ABOUT FOOD QUALITY EFFECTING TOTALS OF A CONTEST. FLAVOR, TEMPERATURE, TEXTURE ALL HAVE AN IMPACT AT WHAT HAPPENS AT THE TABLE. ANY REALISTIC PERSON SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THAT.

    THANKS ALL (IFOCE AND AICE) WHO HAD GOOD THINGS TO SAY. IS NICE TO NOT GET BROW BEATEN FOR A CHANGE.

    GL ALL AND GOOD EATS

    I saw those stupid remarks regarding the pickle contest last year and i hesitated on commenting because the comments are not worth responding to considering the source is a clown. He fails to mention that two days prior to the contest i get an email from that same clown practically begging me to compete and when i told him to take a hike he sent a follow up email calling me a closet case homo along with some other names i wont bother repeating. Ed Jarvis became the second victim of his demented anger only Jarvis doesnt do emails just phone calls. Most of the conversation from what i heard was about me anyhow. To sum it up , one pitiful prick!

    The Chowhound/Human Vac Chili record can NOT be compared. Chowhound & I ate out of styrofoam bowls that you could not tip w/out spilling all over. We used small plastic spoons. After seeing pictures from the recent event, i’m sure you could pick up the Wendy’s cups & just “drink” the chili. How do I know this? Because I eat 2-3 of the .99 chili while driving, that way. Having not been at, or seen a good description of LeFevre’s record I can’t comment on that.

    It would be like comparing oysters in the shell & oysters in a cup. No comparison.

    Styrofoam bowls were used in the 2003 chili contest according to the picture in this article:

    I would love to have a showdown with Mark in a ten minute chili contest. He has obviously gotten much better in the past year and seems like a straight up guy. It would also be great to be in a contest that didn’t involve chewing extremely tough foods for a change. Set it up and I’ll be there (if MLE would approve it).

    MLE wont approve anything unless its their idea. Lyle being AICE forget it .

    How anemic 8.3 lbs Carlene ate more pasole than that several years ago and pasole is harder than chili any day. Alright you almost passed a two year old record set by a women who is now retired congratulations.

    the aice contest was 5 minutes right. ifoce events are 10 or 12 yes? do the math, 8.3 in 5 mins is quite good.

    You do have a problem with math, don’t you, Huey? Carlene ate 109.75 ounces of posole, which is 6.86 lbs. When you can step up and beat these guys, then you can complain… for now, shut up!
