Supersized Japanese meals (in regular sized bowls)
A clip from a program about supersized entrees served by Japanese restaurants is available on youtube. Some meals are served in conventionally sized bowls with messy results. The construction of a Japanese megaburger weighing 2.7 kg (6 lb) and costing 3675 Yen ($31) is displayed. Natsuko “Gal” Sone, Nobuyuki “the Giant” Shirota and Takako Akasaka make a cameo in which they attempt a large bowl of noodles.
Updated R Suzuki has a blog entry about the telecast, which was apparently part of a quiz show. The Monster Cafe is the restaurant where the BIG baga can be purchased.
Shirota impressed with Kobayashi’s KSO III performance.
Nobuyuki “the Giant” Shirota has a blog entry about the Krystal Square Off and is impressed with Kobayashi’s performance, calculating that it is less than 5 seconds per burger. He watched the youtube videos of the contest uploaded by Brian Seiken.
Gal Sone takes the mike for Food Battle Stadiums 3
Food Battle Stadiums #3 was held this weekend in Japan. Gal Sone did not eat at that event, but served as the contest MC. She was late which resulted in the entire program being delayed 30 minutes. Nobuyuki Shirota and Tomoko Miyake ate in exhibitions but did not participate in the main contest.
Shirota vs. 13 girl group in cake eating contest
The singing group Morning Musume, consisting of 13 girls, had a cake eating contest against Nobuyuki “the Giant” Shirota in their Christmas special. The totals of all 13 girls were combined and Shirota only ate for about 5 minutes of the 10 minute contest. (I hope Shirota got paid well for his appearance)
