Tracy "Mmm Mmm" Goode has compiled for Rake & Herald a list of his top 10 competitive eating moments of 2015. (I would have included Molly Schuyler eating 3 Big Texan 72 ounce steaks in 20 minutes).

    I would have included Team USA’s narrow victory over Team Japan in the Battle of the Big Eaters 3.

    Also Molly Schuyler’s first matchup with Kobayashi in the Taco Trough Challenge, where she lost to him.

    And Bob Shoudt’s leaving MLE.

    Randy Santel’s 300th food challenge win and Ramsey Hilton’s 200th challenge win.

    The weakening of APE vs MLE, with a substantial drop in contests offered.

    The return of Rich and Carlene Lefevre, and Ron Koch.

    Didn’t eaters like Brian Subich, Jeff Butler, and Tracy Goode retire?

    And the ascension of eaters like Gideon Oji, Geoff Esper, Nate Figueroa, Michael Jenkins, Nela Zisser, Erik Lamkin, Kate Ovens

    I definitely agree with Molly and the steaks since that was such as high profile challenge, and the feat was actually “Trending” all over Facebook for a few days, but also in the world of food challenges, yes Ramsey getting wins in all 50 states is a pretty cool feat!

    I would have added Molly with the steaks, but I thought it was in 2014. My Bad!!! Much love to Molly!!!

    I really love seeing the conversation on here, and not just petty bitching and insults as per usual. Even if you don’t agree with me I hope you enjoyed the article.

    and whoever mentioned my retirement: yea…not newsworthy one bit but thanks 🙂

    Cut the fuckin crap anonymous asshole aka midget shit stein. Gavonne never has or ever will threaten to kick Seiken ass . Whatever distorted view you got from the video is in your fucked up mind just to start shit. Seiken came this close to shoving that piece of shit camera in his face while gavooone was backpeddling for fear of his life . Gavonne was also very lucky that Menchetti was not feeling well when he tried starting shit with him at a dumpling contest. If you havent read lately, Menchetti was scalping tickets a few months ago and someone snatched a ticket out of his hand. Menchetti chased him down slammed him into a fence and nearly busted the kids jaw. Word to the wise try playing with someone in the heat of the moment and you might get what exactly what you asked for

    Didn’t some eaters threaten Seiken and try to initiate a throwdown? I think he sought out Eater X’s help to make the number even.

    i think the greatest comp eating moment was when midget goldshit was making out with a chick who looked 30yrs older than her picture at the Nathans after party to impress the Nathans finalists at the restaurant that there is actually someone on this planet that finds that repulsive looking horseface attractive. Lets us not forget how his faithful cuz reported the info immed to Mr Smelkin so he could post it on his website . Classic

    Afterparties are closed to “press” because of statements like above. It wasn’t cuz who reported what should have stayed private but BS. There’s a reason some people are not liked.

    Stop lying it was. Actually joint effort by two parties. And if you want to keep things private, maybe some people shouldn’t be exhibitionists and do their thing behind closed doors instead of doing it in public.
