    Ok, Kobayashi is conservatively one of the top 2 speedeaters in the world. But them weren’t tacos. Those are the tacos that they serve you when they advertise 10 cent tacos, and you have to order a beverage. (well it happened me to me at a taco place, big promotion and they claimed they were selling 10 cent tacos, the shells were about the size of a 50 cent peice).

    The fact that it only takes about 3 to 4 handfuls for Kobayashi tells me the tacos were kind of small.

    Thanks for the video Matt. And good job in the contest, I heard you were right there with Kevin Ross.

    Yeah, there’s no way he ate 30 regular sized tacos in one minute. Still, 30 mini tacos is pretty damn impressive.

    These are whats refered to as a “tijuana street taco” consisting of 2oz chicken, a pinch of cheese and a 3inch corn tortilla. The “silver dollar taco” is even smaller than a “street taco”. As small as they are the corn tortilla quickly turns to corn meal in the mouth making them kinda hard to swallow. @cutter- Thanks, I had a pretty good pace going and kept up well with Kevin this day but he wasnt feeling 100%. I look forward to the finals first week of August!

    Oh Pat, we all know that clits are Kobayashi worst food to eat. That is one world record he will never own.
