Tim Janus defeats Joey Chestnut in CP Biggest Eater Melbourne

November 19, 2011 at 9:24 am by ojrifkin · More posts about:Australia, Contest Results, CP Biggest Eater, Joey Chestnut, Juliet Lee, Tim "Eater X" Janus

The Herald Sun reports that Tim Janus ate the most wontons, 310 in 8 minutes, at the pro exhibition at the Melbourne qualifier for the CP Biggest Eater. Joey Chestnut ate 297, 83 less than his record last year, and Juliet Lee ate 175 to break her female record of 160. Final results for the Australians competing have not been posted.

update The MLE facebook reports that Felix Ariga and Brad Stokes tied for 1st place in the contest for Australian males with a total of 105 wontons, less than the 109 Helen Tan ate to win the Singaporean women’s contest. Milly Chow was the best Australian female with a total of 75 wontons.

According to the eatfeats database, this is Tim’s first victory over Joey since the 2009 grits contest in Bossier City, LA. (All of Tim’s previous three victories over Joey Chestnut were in grits contests.) This is also Joey’s first loss in a contest for a food other than chicken wings in over a year.

    Actually, Seiken being invited would have made a great headline: “Seiken Goes Down, Down Under.”

    Love the stats, Good for Janus and Juliet! There must be some story or reason as to why Joey ate so many fewer than last year.

    Joey was just playing around. This is like eating 30 some HDB in a qualifier only to eat 65+ in the finals.
