MMMM SPINACH!

Click on any picture to see these faces properly.
Popeye Spinach-Eating Contest at the Labor Day weekend Tugboat Race & Contest. Yep, back to that now! This was the childrens' division. Then things got UGLY.

I wonder which is worse for you - eating a bowl of spinach in 30 seconds or 68 hot dogs in ten minutes?

Blech! No contest! The spinach may be cold (yuck), and canned (double yuck), but 68 hot dogs?

I suspect that if I ever entered the spinach-eating contest, I'd come down in the same corner as the cute little girl in the 2nd and 4th pictures - I LOVED the face she made at the winner (seated beside her) donned his bowl. I seriously think she took one bite and decided this was all just too yucky for her. But I can sort of imagine entering it on a dare or something (sort of like I entered a regional version of the Miss Italia contest several eons ago). You couldn't pay me enough to go in a hot-dog eating contest!
