Not because there wasn\u2019t enough food to go around. But because the member of the family who\u2019d become the most dominant competitive eater of all time could consume seven servings on his own before anyone else even lifted a fork.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/jacksonvillemovingnews.com\/?p=2701\">Spain routs Austria to advance in World Cup, to meet winner of Portugal-Croatia<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone in my family knew I was the biggest eater,\u201d Chestnut told NBC Local prior to his quest for an 18<sup>th<\/sup> victory in the Nathan\u2019s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest on the Fourth of July. \u201cBefore dinner started, they would yell at me, like, \u2018Hey! Don\u2019t eat fast, leave some for everybody else!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chestnut never leaves leftovers &#8212; or much chance of someone eating more than him.<\/p>\n<p>He ate his way into the record books, holding more than 50 world records, according to Major League Eating. That includes 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes during the 2021 Nathan\u2019s Hot Dog Eating Contest, a record the 42-year-old king of consumption intends to gobble up. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m putting together a plan for a new record, and I feel like things are going to work out,\u201d Chestnut said. \u201dI\u2019m gonna be pushing hard. I\u2019m hungry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just as he was at those family dinners in Vallejo, California \u2013 with his parents, three brothers and two sisters \u2013 in what essentially were his earliest eating contests. At the time, having the reputation of being a fast eater left a bad taste in Chestnut\u2019s mouth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrowing up,\u201d he said, \u201cI was a little bit self-conscious of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t fully ingest it until college, when he was pursuing a civil engineering degree at San Jose State University. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy friends realized like, \u2018Oh my God! He can eat fast!\u2019\u201d Chestnut recalled. \u201cSo, they made me do my first contest, I didn\u2019t even really want to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was a lobster-eating contest at a casino in Reno, Nevada \u2013 and a 21-year-old Chestnut agreed to enter when he was offered a free hotel room. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen when I got on stage for the first time I was like, \u2018Oh my God, I love this. I don\u2019t have to hold back at all.\u2019 It\u2019s crazy, they\u2019re yelling at you to keep eating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But\u2026he bit off more than he can chew. He was a rookie and ate like one, finishing third.<\/p>\n<p>He earned his seat at the table in his second contest, eating 6.3 pounds of deep-fried asparagus to win a contest at the Stockton Asparagus Festival in California &#8212; the same contest that, years later, he\u2019d set a world record in by eating more than 12 pounds. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt became my favorite thing in life, competitive eating and beating people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He developed an appetite for a new career path.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was doing everything right\u2026pretty much,\u201d he said. \u201cI was getting my civil engineer degree finished, working construction management. Then the eating was, like, a lot more fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not so much for his parents who had put food on the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy mom wasn\u2019t thrilled,\u201d Chestnut said. \u201cOne of her things was, \u2018As long as you\u2019re healthy, you can do it.\u2019 So, I put a lot into my health. I eat really clean in between, so on the weekends I can go have a really, really good time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The man known as \u201cJaws\u201d \u2013 who has won 17 of the 20 Nathan&#8217;s contests he&#8217;s competed in and consumed 1,289 hot dogs while doing so \u2013 regularly follows a low-carb, high-protein diet.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s had some cheat days of late while competing in food-eating competitions at Diamond Baseball Holdings minor league baseball games across the country &#8212; a tour in which he ate 10 cheeseburger dogs in 83 seconds in Reading, Pennsylvania, and 10 cinnamon rolls and 10 bowls of chili in three minutes and 36 seconds in Wichita, Kansas.<\/p>\n<p>They are appetizers for his main course: the Nathan&#8217;s Hot Dog Eating Contest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Get the reps in,&#8221; he said, &#8220;and my body will just be a hot-dog-eating machine by the Fourth of July.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chestnut talks more about hot dogs, his favorite and most hated foods, his career and other topics in a Q&amp;A&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/jacksonvillemovingnews.com\/?p=2699\">Congo coach surprised to share news of his father\u2019s death after World Cup game<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>This is a milestone Fourth of July for the country with the 250th anniversary, do you have anything special planned for the hot dog eating contest?<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;Oh my gosh, I&#8217;m gonna be pushing hard. I&#8217;m hungry. Im doing everything I can to try to get high, high numbers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Do you ever crave hot dogs or eat them just for pleasure?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cEven if it\u2019s midweek, no matter what, there\u2019s always a reason for me to have a hot dog. I always have hot dogs, at least the meats, in the house. The buns, sometimes I wrap them in a cheese tortilla.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How many hot dogs do you eat in a normal serving if you\u2019re at a barbecue or baseball game?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cSometimes I can limit myself to one. But that\u2019s rare. In Toledo [while attending a minor league baseball game] it was three. It was pretty quick. It just looks better on the plate. You can\u2019t have a plate with one.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What condiments do you normally put on your hot dogs?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIf I can get \u2018em, raw onions and mustard. They\u2019re pretty simple. If no raw onions, mustard is fine with me. Sometimes I\u2019m craving a full-on Chicago dog with all the toppings. There\u2019s a couple places in Indiana that do really good, drag it through the sink and they top it.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s your diet normally like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a fairly green diet. Lots of greens, good protein, stay away from carbs, sugar during the week completely. I don\u2019t have bread in my house unless it\u2019s a practice or something. I try to do coffee in the morning, not too much breakfast. I like to have one larger meal a day and then a couple little protein supplements.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s something people would be surprised to learn about you?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI love to have a garden\u2026I love good tomatoes. Cucumbers. Gardening. I\u2019m just a goofy dude.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s your favorite food?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re married to one woman and that\u2019s fine, but you don\u2019t have to be married to one food. I get cravings. I love prime rib some days\u2026Or I love good Mexican food\u2026tacos and burritos, it makes me happy. I get a craving for a good pasta, good pasta with a pesto sauce. It\u2019s like a cheat day for me if I eat pasta. When I eat it, oh my God, it sticks on me. If I eat like six pounds of pasta, the next day I\u2019m like six pounds heavier.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s your most hated food?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been done dirty sometimes by a couple sponsors. There&#8217;s this zombie pub crawl in Minnesota. It was cow brain tacos.\u00a0They pitched it to me, they were gonna really cook them like gourmet style. They sent me the recipe, so I made them at home. Then when I got to the event they were like boiled brains. They were rough, there were purple veins sticking out. That was gnarly. I won\u2019t be doing cow brain tacos again.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What food would you most like to try in an eating competition that you haven\u2019t done yet?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI would love to do a little bit more overseas.\u00a0It would be really cool to do some pasta in Italy. That would give me a reason or really have a cheat day. Or do sushi in Japan.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What do you remember most about your first eating contest?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt was lobster. I just turned 21 and it was at a casino in Reno, Nevada. So, they offered me a free hotel room if I did the contest, and I was like I\u2019ll do it. And so, I did it and it was such a pleasant surprise how much I loved it. It\u2019s my favorite thing in life, competitive eating and beating people.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s your advice to new competitive eaters?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t forget to breathe. A lot of people, they\u2019re eating in front of people for the first time and they keep stuffing their mouth and they forget to breathe, and they\u2019re like a deer in headlights and panic. Stay calm, swallow, breathe and wiggle it down.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What do you do to prepare for the hot dog eating contest?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cHopefully when I\u2019m doing really well, I\u2019m working out, I can recover and do a practice every fifth, sixth, if I\u2019m not recovering fast, every seventh day. Hopefully I\u2019ll be able to do a good number of practices, get the reps in and my body will just be a hot dog eating machine by the Fourth of July.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are the practices like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cOh baby, they\u2019re full-on simulated contests. I videotape them, I have a couple of friends yelling at me. It gets intense. Sometimes I\u2019m slowing down and it\u2019s like no you gotta keep on going. Then I watch the video and try to simulate eating later in the week. A lot of trial and error over the years I\u2019ve kept a lot of notes of what works and what doesn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What\u2019s your gameday routine for eating competitions?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll do my fast the day of, probably 24 hours no solid food. Make sure I\u2019m empty and it\u2019s an easy highway to digest. It\u2019s a clean highway, there\u2019s no traffic jams. So, that\u2019s the way I do it, even if it\u2019s a smaller event, my body, I prep it so it\u2019s easy to get it in, get it down and recover.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are you most proud of in your career?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe hot dogs on the Fourth of July. Consistency, a lot of people can win something once or twice, but being able to do it over and over again. Consistency and longevity, I\u2019ve been able to really make my body work for me for a long term.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What does it feel like to be the undisputed GOAT of something?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s wild. There are people who will still say [Takeru] Kobayashi, I love those people because they keep me pushing hard. I don\u2019t think anybody goes in wanting to be the GOAT of anything, but you just find something you\u2019re absolutely obsessed with. I\u2019m obsessed, and I love it and I got lucky and it\u2019s been such a fun ride.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Who better to end this national debate than Joey Chestnut himself\u2026is a hot dog a sandwich?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;No, a hot dog is a hot dog. It\u2019s pretty simple. You don\u2019t go to sandwich shops looking for a hot dog. And you don\u2019t go to a hot dog shop looking for an Italian sub.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/jacksonvillemovingnews.com\/?p=2697\">Top Twins prospect, nicknamed \u2018Captain America,\u2019 helps fainting child on field<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCompetitive eating legend Joey Chestnut won the world burrito eating championship in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Thursday\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joey Chestnut will look to get his 18th win in the Nathan&#8217;s Hot Dog Eating Contest on the Fourth of July.
