She had to eat the other stuff to finish the challenge.

See rules here. She did so after the filming, and won the challenge. There are apparently other restaurants that have this challenge. Here's another. My usual steak order at a good steakhouse is a 6 to 8 ounce filet mignon.

It’s binge eating as a sport. Gluttony for public amusement.

And I have one question. How can that skinny little girl put away that much food and not gain weight?

Actually, I have two questions. Where the hell is Canadia?
