An email request was received for a list of notable eating challenges which have never been completed by women. The Kookamonga (formerly Sasquatch) challenge at the Kooky Canuck in Memphis is probably the most famous challenge which has only been completed by males. The woman who came closest to finishing the Kookamonga, Brittany Albrecht, wrote a blog entry in February about her attempt.
The Wing King Challenge in Boulder probably has the longest all-male online finishers list (34 men) The Walls of Fame for the Mac Daddy Pancake challenge in Honolulu and the Manimal Challenge in Maine (the upcoming Man vs. Food challenge) also consist solely of men.
I am unaware of any female finishers of the Kitchen Sink sundae in Walnut Creek, CA, Tony Luke’s Ultimate cheesesteak in Philadelphia and the R U Hungry 5 sandwich challenge in New Jersey, but cannot verify this as these challenges lack online finishers lists.
