    stop playing the damn model card…… also you don’t taste the food when you eat really…… Depending on how the food taste you can intake more or less of it. Like warm fresh pizza vs cold pizza thats been sitting out for a long time…. That fresh pizza will taste better and you will most likely consume more. Also theirs such a thing as flavor fatigue thats why people bring beverages either than water to contest….. Get out of here you rank amateur so called “model”

    She is a top-notch model and an excellent competitive eater. This makes her unique. She brings much needed positive publicity to our field.

    Some media foul up that she was Miss Earth, but she was just the NZ rep. But she wasn’t the Miss Earth NZ winner (2013) in the first place, the true winner had schedule complications. Not sure she was “second place” and moved up though, I think they just hand-picked her, probably with backroom connections. But in the end Miss Zisser got food poisoning and missed the Miss Earth finals anyway. Their alibi is that beauty paegant contestants often get food poisoning, due to diet in strange realms.

    You can read her modelling brief at http://www.starnow.co.nz/nelazisser
    I don’t know the business enough, but I don’t think she is exactly a name-brand model, even in NZ. Maybe her parents pushed her into it at a younger age, and now she’s branching out.

    Artificial intelligence is a bogus field. Just a bunch of pie-in-sky boffins who never come up to anything. Just talk big and reap in the grant money.
