How Long To Gobble Down An 8 Incher?

I found out about this from Eyal, who found out from Jil:

Bob’s BBQ has a standing offer for anyone interested, called The Wagon Wheel Challenge. If you can eat one of Bob’s Wagon Wheel Burgers (about 3 pounds total weight, price range 400 to 500 baht depending on toppings) including the french fries in under 45 minutes, Bob will put your name on the Wagon Wheel Hall of fame (a plaque on the wall of his restaurant), put your picture on his website, and knock half the price off your burger.

What’s funny here is clicking through to the website and seeing the list of people who have attempted to eat the 8 inch burger, and succeeded. There’s a Korean there. A Scotsman. Lot s of Chubby people, but some not so chubby. The longest time was 45 minutes.

45 minutes to eat a burger. Man….

But for some strange reason, it’s tempting. I do love a good burger. And it doesn’t look that big.

Americans, in their typical style, have gone one better.
