What? No original content?! Yeah but this is too good not to link up. You don’t get a lot of petite people in competitive eating - the only obvious one that comes to mind is Sonya Thomas @ “The Black Widow” of the USA. Though, the current world hot-dog eating champion (~54 hot-dogs in 12 minutes) Takeru “The Tsunami” Kobayashi is not that big either.

Now there’s a new competitor on the scene. A 21-year old from Japan who’s learning to be a chef called Natsuko Sone. Her vital statistics?


Natsuko Sone
162cm, 43kg.

In this video, she scarfs down 7kg of curry, rice and noodles from a gigantic bowl in about an hour. And she enjoys it. You don’t even need to understand Japanese to know it. All you skinny women who think you eat too much? Well, you don’t. Not when compared to Natsuko.

If you read Japanese, she also has a blog. Natch. :)
