Eating champion wins dumpling contest
A Japanese champion eater fended off 30 challengers to win a dumpling eating contest in Hong Kong today, downing 83 steamed dumplings in eight minutes.
In his first contest in Hong Kong, Takeru Kobayashi, 27, picked up the vegetarian dumplings with chopsticks and swallowed many of them almost effortlessly. The professional competitive eater even flaunted his abdominal muscle after he finished eating.
