Food Challenge Fail

I've hardly blogged since moving to the Philadelphia area and starting my new job, and bemoaning that fact recently inspired me to eat something I shouldn't have.

3 pancakes!




I know - three pancakes doesn't sound like a big deal, but at a little diner in Royersford, PA they have a challenge on the menu. If you can eat 3, you don't pay, otherwise it's just $5.50. So, I figured I could take 3 pancakes.


I was so wrong.

I know some strategies - don't drink too much, don't eat other things, stay in training...





After a little while I felt pretty good. I thought to myself, "I can manage this." "Should be no problem."


I've eaten plenty of big things in the past:

• 2 cheese steaks
  

a really big burger


• this thing
  


• and of course - The El Gigante
  

I even won a donut eating contest once.


To my shame this time it was not to be.
