TOP 10! Favorite Food Feats
COUPLE’S RECORD! 88 HOT DOGS in 10 MIN.
Despite all the curve balls of 2020, Miki and Nick set personal bests in the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest (Miki, with a Women’s World Record!), following their first season as a couple and training together.
Their combined 88 hot dogs beat out the Couple’s Record, previously held by MLE #1 Joey Chestnut and his then girlfriend.
2+ GALLONS of ICE CREAM in 6 MIN. WORLD RECORD
There’s always room for ice cream! Miki Sudo proved she “still had room” till the very end of the 6 minute contest, as she methodically scooped her way to sweet, sweet victory.
50 Hard Boiled Eggs in 3:02!
WORLD RECORD
On April 25th, 2021, Nick Wehry downed 50 eggs in just over 3 minutes to claim another World Record. Take that, Cool Hand Luke! He then dropped to one knee and proposed to Miki!
WORLD’S BIGGEST PEANUT BUTTER CUP!
Is it more impressive that Nick MADE a perfect 5-POUND Reese’s replica, or that he ATE the whole thing? You decide!
Fun fact: Miki deleted the footage while editing, so Nick made (and ATE) a 5-pound peanut butter cup… TWICE.
8.5 POUNDS KIMCHI,
8 min!
WORLD RECORD
For the uninitiated, kimchi is a spicy Korean pickle dish, often made by fermenting cabbage. Miki LOVES it so much, she inhaled OVER A GALLON in just 8 minutes!
223 Chicken wings,
10 min!
When it come to wings, the only thing that gets Nick fired up even more than the “Flat vs. Drum” debate is a high-stakes Wing Eating Contest. In the 2019 Hooters Wing Eating Championship, he tore through 223 wings in 10 minutes, edging out Sudo (who ate just 214).
46 Moon Pies in 8 minutes!
In his first contest ever, Nick dominated a Paczi-eating contest, and in 2018, he returned to his dessert contest roots and inhaled 46 Moon Pies in 8 minutes at the World Moon Pie Eating Championship.
105-pound burger
(Yes, ONE-OH-FIVE.)
A few days shy of Thanksgiving 2018, Nick convinced 9 of his friends to join him in New Jersey to devour a burger the size of a 2-month-old horse.
Fun Fact:
What was to be The Hungry Couple was barely acquainted with each other, and Miki was the LAST PERSON Team Captain Nick would invite onto the Team of Ten, and it was only at the suggestion of a mutual friend and fellow competitive eater. The two sat on opposite ends of the table and socialized with practically everyone but one another… but were living together and very much in love by next Thanksgiving.
Couple’s Record! 41+ POUNDS of poutine in 10 min.
Going for Eating Contest Gold is an individual pursuit, but Miki and Nick’s combined consumption often sets a jaw-dropping couple’s record.
At the 2019 World Poutine Eating Championship, The Hungry Couple ate a combined 41.375 POUNDS of the French delicacy in just 10 minutes!
36.5 Bratwursts in 10 minutes!
To no one’s surprise, Nick likes meat. But at 4 ounces apiece, that’s over 9 POUNDS of thick, chewy, juicy brats… in 10 minutes!
Fun Fact: Nick beat Miki by just half a brat (2 ounces!) in the 2019 World Championship.
48.5 hot dogs, 10 min.
WORLD RECORD.
