Joey Chestnut’s Competitive Eating Records
October 28, 2008
Joey Chestnut from San Jose, California added one more record to his competitive eating career after he ate 45 pizza slices in 10 minutes at a contest in New York City last Sunday.
The International Federation of Competitive Eating (IFCE) ranks Chestnut #1 worldwide, followed by #2 Patrick Bertoletti (previous pizza eating record holder with 22 slices in 10 minutes) and #3 Takeru Kobayashi.
Chestnut won the 4th July Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs and Buns contest eating 66 in 12 minutes in 2007 and recently won a contest in Tennessee last month by eating 93 Krystal hamburgers in 8 minutes, beating Kobayashi.
Among his achievements are eating 182 chicken wings in 30 minutes, 47 grilled cheese sandwiches in 10 minutes and drinking a gallon of milk in 41 seconds.
