NEW Butter Eating World Record (15 Year Old Record Broken) ( Graphic)
Back in 2002, when Competitive Eating was still relatively unknown, there was a man named Don "Moses" Lerman who was rampaging through the competitive eating circuit like an absolute loose cannon. At one point he was the Baked Beans, Jalapeno Pepper, Matzoh Balls, Cloud Burger and Butter Eating World Champion. Fast forward to 2011....When the L.A. BEAST was first introduced to Competitive Eating....As a history major in college, the L.A. BEAST did his research on the pioneers of the sport and that is when he first came across Don Lerman. Focusing on YouTube Challenges back in 2012, The L.A. BEAST came across an article of Gross and Disgusting food records that were said to be unbreakable. Don Lerman's BUTTER RECORD of 7 quarter pound sticks of SALTED Butter in 5 minutes was #7 on the list and as of that point, no one had beaten the record in 10 years. (The record was set on February 21, 2002 for Fox's 2 hour special called "Glutton Bowl") Inspired, the L.A. BEAST put 8 sticks of Salted Butter onto a plate, set his timer to 5 minutes and gave it everything he had to try and achieve BUTTER EATING GLORY. On that day however, the BEAST fell short...only gobbling down 5 sticks of butter in 5 minutes, but he vowed to get his revenge.
Today, because he could not think of any other YouTube ideas, The L.A. BEAST has decided to try and tackle the now 15 year Standing BUTTER EATING WORLD RECORD and finally earn that redemption he vowed to get 5 years ago....
8 sticks of Salted Butter contains roughly 6400 calories of straight up fat. Eating just 1 stick of butter will have your body telling you that something isn't right. So if you decide to eat sticks of butter like an absolute boss, make sure you have excellent health insurance and 911 on speed dial.
Sit Back, Relax, And Enjoy!!
