I had three friends when I lived in the village I came from (I had more, but these three are the ones to do woth my bet).
They were *** and nephews of the baker in our street, and we once made a bet I could eat a whole chocolate pie, it was called 'Herrentorte' (~Gentlemens's Pie) was about half as big as an original cream pie (Ha ha, not what we call that way, dudes ^^ ) and heavy on chocolate, nuts, and Marzipan. Price: 20 Deutschmarks
I made it about 2 thirds through, then had to give up.
It was worth it - but I learned all you can eat or food contest are not for me
