i would like to try if ever. eating 9 donuts in a minute for a normal person is impossible but it would be really cool to try it. if i put my whole self into it maybe i can possibly win the contest hehehe. but i should try it at home first. :)

I would not even attempt it as much as love to eat and love hot fresh donuts. If I eat more than one donut it seems to grow into 9 anyway within an hour, so I can't imagine eating that many!

There is no way that I could eat that many doughnuts in that short period of time. I would have gotten sick after two or three I think. I really do not understand why people participate in these eating contests as they are not healthy for a person. It is disgusting I think. There is the Wingbowl around here and there is a hot dog eating contest and probably other ones out there as well.

donut - yummy looking donut!
wow.. that's really amazing. although i haven't really tried eating 9 donuts, or timing my speed in eating them, i don't think i can do it. lol.. i think the farthest i can go is a donut in 1 minute.. i might try it one of these days.. lol..=D

Nope I couldnt do it. I love donuts but not that much. I might be able to win a shrimp eating contest. I do love my shrimp.

I don't think I could win a eating contest at all..I don't even see the need for it..its kinda gross to me, I watched the hot dog eating contest and found myself taking something to settle my stomach...truthfully, the big girl that lives inside of me probably can do 9 doughnuts in 9 minutes..that about the best I could do..lol
