San Antonio Review

Watch a man in a hot dog eating contest:He soaks the bun in water and bringsit soggy to his mouth. Small quick bitesof the pink naked dog. Just last month, the skinnyCalifornia kid ate 76 hot dogs in 12 minutes. He also holds the records in waffles,chicken wings, Krystal hamburgers anddeep-fried asparagus. Deep fried! Asparagus!Last night, I couldn’t even finish the pad-see-ewfrom the Thai place. Laura saysthe portions in American restaurantsare too big anyway. In Amarillo,they sell a 72-ounce steak.
