Who dares: frikandel-eating competition
Are you a huge frikandel fan? And up for a challenge and a trip to Brussels? Then sign up as soon as possible for the frikandel-eating championship, which will be held on October 7, 2023. The jury is strict: no vomiting until an hour after the competition, otherwise you will be disqualified.
Strangely enough, the Belgian frikandel championship is organized by… a dating site. However attractive that brown stick of pleasure – as Snackspert always affectionately and respectfully calls the frikandel – may be, it’s not exactly sexy when your date for the evening watches you fold one snack after another into your face. But still, every opportunity to eat unlimited frikandellen is an opportunity worth taking, so seize your chance. The site hasn’t said that Dutch people aren’t allowed to participate, so it will be an international championship. Maybe you’ll soon be the Benelux frikandel-eating champion!
23 pieces
Want to know what you should be working toward during your training for this championship? The Dutch frikandel-eating champion, Aart van de Streek from ’t Harde, managed to eat 23 of them. He got a little stuck at number 19, but fortunately he was able to deploy his secret weapon: applesauce. Mayonnaise didn’t go down well, but thanks to the sauce he mashed down those 23rd ones in no time.
Smoke and perseverance
The competition will be held on October 7 and 8, 2023, in Brussels; you can register via Funky Net’s Facebook page. You still have some time to train, so get started. Build up gradually, make that fryer smoke every day and persevere, because you mainly win a competition like this with the right mindset. Watch Kamp Koningsbrugge often and apply those wise life lessons to your own journey: down as many frikandellen as possible, as quickly as possible. No, Snackspert, you’re not allowed to participate.
