Christina Handy ate 2.51 pounds of crawfish in 10 minutes to win the first prize of $1000 in today's eating contest at the Crawfish Mambo in New Orleans. Russell Callais, winner of the contest in 2016 when it was sanctioned by MLE, was runner up.

    At least MLE didn’t throw a hissy fit when they lost the contest, like All Pro did when they lost the mushroom contest and Todd instructed all his eaters to boycott the new indy mushrooms contest, to which they all sheepishly agreed.

    With the MLE contract, there is no need to explicitly demand a contest boycott.

    Yep, MLE vs. mostly independent All Pro.

    Well, just about every competitive eater has some kind of mental illness, especially eating disorders, and some have physical issues related to that, like heart problems. Many probably have other physical problems too, like with their cholesterol, blood pressure, lipid count, etc. Do you think reversing on a regular basis is good for the body? It is healthier than being fat? [Hint: most doctors, when pressed, say it is better to be fat, even obese, than to reverse on a fairly regular basis. You can cause too many problems by regularly reversing, such as electrolyte imbalances, which are sometimes fatal, heart attacks, stroke, esophageal scarring, asphyxiation by aspiration, etc.).

    And why do you comment on her weight, 8:24? Don’t you think she already knows she is obese? What does this add to the conversation other than displaying your hatred of her, and probably all kinds of other people in CE? A lot of the MLE or All Pro Eaters are also fat. It happens. Many of those not involved in CE are fat.

    Not all CE reverse. I have my blood tested every year and it’s always where it needs to be.

    Where are your sources that document about most CE having some sort of mental illness or eating disorder?
