Man vs. Food (Chris Nolan vs. The Fresser) – Natick Edition
It takes up the entire baseket!
As many of you know, Chris Nolan, Nasuni’s resident food destroyer, has set numerous records for beef and beans consumed at Chipotle. He’s been known to tackle double and even triple meat burritos without batting an eye. I once saw him threaten a small child who dared take the last of the precious barbacoa for his feast. Suffice it to say he is not to be trifled with.
If you still question his abilities or haven’t seen him eat in person, I suggest you watch this video. You are warned however – this is not for the faint of heart!
Today however, the stakes were raised. No more are we trifling with mere triples. We have moved into the range of 5x. On Thursday December 3rd, 2009 at 12:51 PM a challenge was issued that will resonate through the halls of history. Seconds later, Chris agreed to take on “The Fresser.”
The Fresser is a sandwich. It is a sandwich in the same way that Woodstock was a simple concert. This author has heard stories of The Fresser defeating countless numbers of eating contest champions. Legend has it that Kobayashi himself only finished 80% of the beast. I believe Chris has the potential, but the real question is whether or not he will be mentally prepared. We’ve all see what happens when competitors aren’t mentally prepared.
For those of you that are interested in witnessing this amazing feat (or pitiful failure), you are lucky enough to have the opportunity of a lifetime. On Thursday December 10th 2009 at 11:45 AM at Joan & Ed’s Deli in Natick, MA you will bear witness to Chris as he tackles his greatest eating challenge yet.
Personally, I’m rooting for the sandwich.
