Seafood is one of the easiest things to digest - a bratwurst is really hard on the body.

My birthday is always around Thanksgiving, and I always had to have turkey on my birthday. My mom was always, 'Let's celebrate your birthday on Thanksgiving.' My other siblings got to have special dinners they liked. I resented turkey. For a long time, I hated turkey. I've kind of gotten over it.

I think food brings people together, and it makes people happy.

You need to stay calm the day of the contest. Not let the weather bother me and just relax.

I have the craziest dreams when I'm digesting a massive amount. It feels so real, it's psychedelic.

That's one reason I like hot dogs. Nice and clean. And you can count them as they're going down.

It's pretty rare for me to be someplace that serves hot dogs and not eat one.

The crowd loves a record, and if they're gonna be standing out there in crazy, blistering heat on the 4th of July, I mean, if they're doing it, I may as well try and give them a record.

I think my body was built to eat 68 hot dogs. It's natural.
