Kobayashi eats Christmas cake, eggnog

Takeru Kobayashi is one of the most fascinating athletes of our time–mainly because the man can eat massive amounts of different foods in a matter of minutes. From hot dogs to turkey, the list of foods Kobayashi has scarfed down over the years is endless–which is why he decided to participate in a holiday-themed contest for the Christmas season. As you can see in the video above, Kobayashi made a stop at the offices of Sports Illustrated and participated in a contest that involved eating a five-pound Christmas cake. Not only did Kobayashi end up eating over half of the cake, but he topped the competition off by chugging one gallon of eggnog. I don’t know how he does it, but it’s unbelievable how Kobayashi is able to eat massive portions of certain foods in such a short period of time. Thanks to Sports Illustrated for the video above.
