In the first article listed, Rich Shea maintains that there will be “no dipping” (no dunking) in the contest, because the burritos would fall apart. That should really favor Sonya. I look for a new record, weight-wise, though I don’t know the weight of Booker’s record total.
I expect Tim to do very well too, because in 12 minutes stomach capacity will come in to play and Sonya’s and Tim’s capacity are better than the rest.
No dunking contests like this and the 3-Bros Pizza better reveal an eater’s talents–in many cases–because half the food substance is not left in the cups, or on the table / ground, or replaced by water, which GREATLY helps the eaters in speed.
This will be the real deal!

Rhonda,
Only a few cheaters leave food in the cups. Dunking isn’t a problem with almost everybody else. The floating debris is minimal.
