A few times on here he eats over 8 lbs. of food. A unprepared box of Mac and Cheese is 7.25 oz. Is my math right in thinking that it is a touch over 22 boxes of mac and cheese? I have no problem with one box, but after that…
JC is a true American treasure and well worthy to be named as a Celebrity Grubber.
2JC = the great white hope. The only thing we have against the japanese…
3I had never heard of a kolache before, now I want to try one! Also 4.82 lbs of p’zone sounds horrific.
4Holy cow… this guy must have the metabolism of a hummingbird…
5Dang, Where’s the Pepto? (urp)
6Someone needs to get him up to here to Oshkosh, Wisconsin to win the Polito’s Monster Pizza contest! A tw0-person team must eat the 12-pound Monter Pizza in one hour or less. Apparently nobody has done it yet. This man would be able to do it himself and win the $500 cash prize!
Call him now! haha
7I forgot to include a link to the contest: http://www.politospizza.com/monsterpizzacontest.asp
812 pounds in an hour? 6 pounds each…sheesh. I like pizza but not that much. Yeah, I’m sure Joey could handle it though.
