It was random, it took about three weeks. They filmed me for my first real competition as a competitive eater.

I start training two weeks before a competition, every other day. I'll drink a gallon of water and eat cottage cheese while at I'm at work.

I knew I could eat a lot. I just needed to learn how to eat faster.

I don't get crazy with it. The competitive eating thing is a weekend hobby.

I don't think there's strong competition at the moment, but it's certainly coming.

While the prices (of acquisitions) are going up, the competition is actually lessening.
