Reigning hot dog eating champion Joey Chestnut has gone on to even greater renown by setting a new world record for gobbling down slices of pizza. Joey downed 45 slices of pizza in 10 minutes at the Famous Famiglia pizza-eating contest in Times Square last week. During his $5,000 prize-winning performance, Chestnut consumed about 11,700 calories and 450 grams of fat. “He is truly a god among eaters,” said one of his competitor’s. “He could probably put an entire work boot in his mouth.” (New York Daily News)
