The legend of Kaucasian Kobayashi

I accomplished a great feat the other day, one which my co-workers didn't think I'd be able to do.

If you saw me compete in the 1st Annual Thanksgiving turkey pot pie eating contest, then you will remember that I jumped out to an early lead, but failed down the stretch, much like Dwyne Philippin would say my Bengals do every season. I still contend that I would have won had I not encountered a cold pie. Have you ever eaten a half frozen turkey pot pie? I think I'm gonna puke just thinking about it.

Anyway, Chris Chester was flabbergasted a few weeks ago when I housed a double Angry Whopper. See, I'm a relatively small guy. I'm like 5'7" and weigh around 145 lbs. I work out, play tennis and basketball and for the most part, eat nothing but South Beach diet bars here at the office and I get plenty of crap for it. So when I devoured that burger, many were surprised.

When I came into work the other day, Chester asked if I would be willing to try a triple Angry Whopper. I had to think twice about it. For one, I didn't know if I'd be able to keep myself awake after eating such a behemoth. I also wasn't interested in all the exercise I'd have to put in. Why so much exercise? Well here's the lowdown:

A triple Angry Whopper is 1,360 calories, has 91 grams of fat, 59 grams of carbs and more sodium than the Great Salt Lake. It's three patties of beef, a ton of bacon and cheese, some sort of sauce, lettuce, tomato and french fried onions. Basically, it's enough food to feed a Somalian refugee camp.

Xavi claimed one of his friends was unable to tackle a standard triple Whopper and after some thought, I decided against the challenge.

That didn't matter. Chester went to BK to grab his lunch and after I specifically told him not to get me a triple Angry Whopper, he came back and put it on my desk. I swear to you, you could use the thing as a door stop for a bank vault.

I couldn't let the thing go to waste. That would have been $5 worth of heaven thrown in the trash. I can always eat a burger. ALWAYS! Put it in front of me and it's go time.

So after grabbing a cup of water, I went to work.

Chester got a little carried away and put on "Eye of the Tiger" as I tackled the giant beast. But before he and Xavi could blink, I had destroyed half of the sandwich.

 

Xavi and Chester were in shock and soon, it was time to finish this thing off. I LAUGH IN THE FACE OF THE ANGRY WHOPPER! And at myself for being such a lunatic. Seriously, ALMOST 1,400 CALORIES AND 91 GRAMS OF FAT. I'm lucky the thing didn't lodge itself in one of my arteries.

Soon, it was all over. I had devoured the triple Angry Whopper and did it before "Eye of the Tiger" had even finished playing. We estimate that I ate it in about four minutes.

 

So there you have it. The legend of the Kaucasian Kobayashi. I challege anyone to eat a triple Angry Whopper in less than four minutes. I'm sure that I will outdue myself at some point down the road, but for now, you can catch me on the toilet as the triple Angry Whopper is having it's revenge.

Love it? Hate it? Sign up and sound off!

This was hilarious wil. I just found it and have had a laugh at last. It seems to be so popular too. I have a renal stent in my artery and after many BK Whoppers and Big Macs I regret. Please do not do it again! ROFL I must suggest a nice salad and some fruits from one who has been in bed nearly 6 years after too small a stent was put in. The medicines are horrible believe me.

In my younger, foolish days I took the $8 or $9 Dollar Menu Challenge. I didn't win anything, but like Will was challenged and had to step up to the task at hand. Off to Wendy's I went and I got two bacon cheeseburgers, two nuggets, one french fries and two chicken sandwiches. As I drove away I realized i was short and worried my friends woulnd't give me the one dollar slide, I proceeded to Taco Hell and got two soft tacos.

All I have to say is a food coma like no other. But, I did manage to eat it all.

A triple and a single? That sounds like too much. I like that I've become the guy in the office who will eat anything. hahaha

Danggggggggggggg. I can't believe you were able to eat that. I just watched that "Pie" eating contest. You almost had it man. So close. And John.......... I don't know what to say about that. But congrats Mr. Kobayashi.
