Here’s an idea for a future episode: does the temperature of your drinks actually change how it satisfies your thirst or is it all a psychological trick?
Edit: Also does temperature have a flavor? (Water wants to have a conversation)
Ooohh thats goddamn brilliant
He did this with beer I think
@@WorldMania03 We can't.
The best you can do is report them and hope CZcams does something or Matpat deletes them himself
ooh yeah he should do this one
@@mrs.oleary5265 hi
Your conclusion was weirdly uplifting. Godspeed to the kid who's going to make it to 87 dogs.
I feel like low to zero percent carbonated acidic drinks like coffee, lemonade, or flat soda would be the best dunking option to water. As someone who has eaten a lot of burgers in my life, i know coffee and flat soda can make a bun soft enough to swallow with no chewing with one sip, and help the stomach break down the food faster. But, i think we would need a competitive eater to try using those to see if it would really work.
I went to a local fair just because I was driving by. They had a hot dog eating contest and it was $5 to enter. My wife and I entered just to get a few for lunch and support the town. There was one guy that didn't want a chair to sit in, and wanted 6.cups of water. He ate the meat first then the buns, dipping them in water. I simply ate at my normal (for me) speed (which is a little fast). After the second plate I realized I might be able to win. I ate 16 hot dogs in 6 mins and won. Then went on to win a contest where you only have to eat 1 donut, but it's hanging by a string, and you can't use your hands. I still look at my little trophy and smile some days. 😂
Despite the copious amount of bots, that’s really cool 👍
I myself and my child and early college Years was a competitive eater. The entry fee was very cheap, and I got to fill up on a very limited budget. I actually won quite a few number of competitions too. It wasn't so much about the prize, I just wanted to not starve. I once entered a last person standing all you can eat hot dog competition. For over 8 hours I continued to eat hot dogs continuously. I just didn't realize that one of my competitors was consuming these hot dogs hands over fist. Unfortunately they ran out of hot dogs, and had to declare a winner prematurely. Of course they blew me out of the water, almost consuming two times the amount of hot dogs I ate. I consumed an ungodly amount of hot dogs, but just wasn't enough. And this is all because I was tall and skinny. In fact, I was well below my standard minimum weight for a guy.
The absolute hero the world didn’t know it needed 👌.
thats actually really cool, you have earned a seal of approval from this theorist fan.
Wow that's hilarious and amazing. You were just hungry and ended up winning a trophy. 😁
Out of curiousity, has the concept from the food shrinkage theory been applied to the records? Have the hotdogs always been the same size, or are they shrinking every so often? Maybe 74 hotdogs of last year is the same volume as 50 hotdogs from 10-15 years ago.
I think the rules require a standardized length and volume for the hot dogs
@@zackbuildit88 yeah that would make sense
They manufacture the dogs and buns
It's actually a really good point... So many companies nowadays are shrinking their product and even lying about shrinking their product look at Cadbury eggs it's not the egg that's getting smaller it's we're getting bigger lol
MatPat has even made a video on that on this channel. Surely he should know about that problem.
I can finally die peacefully knowing I heard MatPat utter the words “throat lubricant”
Hey matpat!! I have a question. Lets say our fav blue blur Sonic entered a hot dog eating contest. How much could he eat in ten minutes (assuming he did the same training). Would he 💀 in the process or is he walking away a little pudgy hedgehog as well?
Its sonic, he's already been filmed (unlogically) eating much more hotdogs (chili dogs) then what our limit right now allows
The other huge factor is genetic defects/modification. Kobayashi had a distended stomach, which gave him more room to store food. I saw this in the episode: True Life, I'm a Competitive Eater.
I remember that episode too, he would go to a buffet & have all these plates next to him, it was like his stomach was bottomless 😵
Yeah, he also ate a huge mountain of shaved ice that was chili mango flavored.
Reminds me of Terare
I find it so funny that MatPat can find the weirdest studies when I couldn’t even find a website about why leggings aren’t allowed in most schools
thats bc: bs
Were leggings made to be worn as "active" wear not to just walk around in normally?.
Leggings show too much. They're indecent.
@@myheartsopen5698 yes but here's the thing: it doesn't matter
Well now you can find out with Style Theory
Video idea: I'm sure you've seen some of the lists making the rounds on social media recently of the number of food processing disasters and poultry cullings in the US from the last year or so. Would you consider making a meta video about these lists? Obviously the poultry cullings are probably due to the bird flu outbreak, but the rest of the list does make for a chilling read (even if official sources say nearly all the disasters are accidents, it's still creepy). Has there been an increase of industrial accidents in food production/processing/storage etc recently? Was there some regulation change, or side effects from losing workers to isolation policies? Or is it "business as usual" and people are just suddenly more aware of supply chain issues now that there are bare spots on the shelves and are making up theories out of boredom or something like that?
I've heard rumors about that! I would love for MatPat to do a video on this!!
post it on the reddit it's more likely gonna be discovered there if people upvote it enough they'll see it and do it
@@zykegabrielmarchinoilagan3316 I'd rather die than make a reddit account

Hmm
Solid video!

This doesn't have anything to do with food theory but I just wanna thank matpat coz since my physics teacher sucks so my class once wrote a test with questions that we were not taught about and the only reason that I passed that test is because I watched a game theory about mario and that's how I learned to calculate the gravitational force of a planet using the mass of an object's so thank you matpat and I love being a theorist💚

@@mr.regular589 Do you have a dirty mind? Or are you pure?
I love that you mentioned and used an actual research paper. I think some people underestimate how nice it is to not have to always perform your own experiment.
Please keep in mind that the top CZcams food challenge channel creators, like Erik the Electric, Beard Meats Food, Joel Hansen, Leah Shutkever, and the Takedown Twins all eat incredibly healthy and low-calorie diets outside of their challenges, even fasting sometimes, and lead very athletic lifestyles to balance out the effects of eating so much at once. Stay healthy everybody ❤

future episode idea: if marie antoinette’s famous saying of “let them eat cake” had actually been executed (the rulers actually gave the people cake and they ate it), how much cake would have needed to be made to feed the starving people of france? (france had a population of around 26 million, though not all were starving, just most.) would the cake have helped? would a certain type of cake been more filling/more nutritional?
edit: yes. i know that she actually said bread. the point is that if she did say cake, what would be the best thing.
It's a mistranslation, she said bread
@@Nonyah123 "what if" who cares about reality.
this
cake actually just means good bread that they were suposed to only eat on Sundays because of church so they'd just be handing out bread lol
@@sampepper7682 yeah, that’s the actual course of events. All they had left was “ the good bread” so she said “ then, let them eat that!”
But we know how the masses always twists people’s words to mean something they didn’t actually say.
I can't help but be weirdly shocked and happy that yuka got mentioned, I've loved her for a long time it's nice to see her getting recognition.
I did cross country for the scholarship deals my junior year. That’s some of the most pain in such long intervals I’ve felt in my life. I have so much respect for runners, especially ones that have a lot of endurance
Other food ideas related to this:
1) what food can be eaten fastest/ best for competitive eaters? As is a hotdog, and cupcakes or whatever? Also the worst food used in contests
2) what is the best routine for a competitive eater? Like are there myths or similar?
3) which CZcamsr is the best competitive eater. Not Matt or pros
B
yes
2) One thing I know is that starving yourself before is actually counterproductive. When you dont eat, your body goes into fasting mode and isn't ready digest large amounts of food. Therefore competitive eaters usually have small bites throughout the day to keep their metabolism going.
You should make a video covering the "conasupo case" how contaminated milk from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster caused child cancer rates in Mexico to go up by 300%

Food Theory Idea: how did salt and pepper become the go-to dining table seasonings?
Two Interesting Facts: In 2018, consumers spent more than $3 billion on hot dogs in U.S. supermarkets, and franks and wieners were the original names for the Americanized hot dogs.

I feel like the drink they'd make for this is one that'd take away your sense of taste because from what I've heard the reason why you can eat so many cheetos in one sitting is because they realized the less they put flavor in the more your body trys to fulfill the amount of flavor it wants
That's one of the reasons that a close second to water has been (don't know if it still is, but probably) lemonade. Usually a tart one. The sourness helps to overpower the food's tatest and plays some with the brain and what it does autonomicly over the body.
It needs to be slippery and not prone to soak the bread with water and add mass. The answer is okra slime.
I don't know if it was my comment or others on the last video or if you had just been planning to add them, but thank you for adding subtitles to your videos. It means a lot.
Thank you for posting the video.
Currently in the hospital for a couple weeks I look forward to these videos even more than getting out. Thank you matpat and the whole team for providing me and so many people with something to look forward too and brighten their day. We all appreciate you

idea for a episode: explore which is more effective for cooling you down: hot beverages vs cold beverages, since both are capable of this, one by making you sweat, and one just by being cold
Obviously cold liquids as you need to waste energy to heat the liquid to body temperature. The other by removing liquid by evaporation
@@inteallsviktigt yo for a second I thought you meant the heating up of the hot beverage using a kettle or whatever was the waste of energy and I typed an entire post about how fridges also use energy to make ice cubes or cold drinks, im so glad I read that twice!
this is so random but mat i think you’d be awesome at consulting scientific research or research start ups for creative directions, guest speaking at research conferences, or something like that in your off time. the fun way you approach learning about something, and also learning about HOW to learn about something, is so refreshing
I am so thankful you make these videos. I'm going on holiday soon and I'm not allowed to read any of my books incase I finish them and have nothing to read while I'm there and these videos entertain me while I'm waiting.😁😁
I remember in 2009, my high school had a competitive eating contest with hamburgers. The burgers were like Big Macs. I had 7.5 of them in a 32 minute lunch period. Apparently, according to a friends little brother, my record still stands and the only person to get close threw up at 5
When i did it, i remember my metabolism just kicking into high gear after like 3 of them. It was like my stomach was burning them off just as fast as I was eating them. I remember that not even a class period later, I was hungry like I didn't each lunch at all.
Edit: noticed a typo that said my lunch period was 22 minutes, it was 32
bro has the worlds fastest metabolism gg
That challenge of MatPat VS Safiya is so cool! Safiya totally out-maneuvered MatPat by taking the lead via dowsing them ketchup to mitigate against the dryness of the dogs
Safiya definitely had an advantage! When she worked at Buzzfeed, she took part in a hot dog eating contest, learning how to consume so many hot dogs. And she won, so really, Matt had ZERO chances against her! Lol
Well I can't claim to know what would be optimal, but improving on water would not be hard. Just adding sugar would increase effectiveness because sugar relaxes the stomach lining making it more elastic. There is definitely a lot of room for improvement there. The question is how harmful to the athletes it will be.

Bust myths one by one shape, size, greenness, yellowness, field spot, stem condition
The drink at 10:58 should be orange juice....
My mum accidentally found a cool hack for buffets, drink orange juice becuase of how acudic it is it will break down the food faster. I thought it was bs but I tried it one time having churrasco and I could eat twice the amount I can usually stomach. Probably with that in mind 114 could be doable for someone of average build. Maybe... I'd have to test it to be sure. It just wouldn't taste very nice.
I'm sure anyone eating competitively are not thinking much about the taste, After 20 hotdogs you wouldn't want to look at another hotdog but then you eat another 20 hotdogs and then you decide to just eat another 20 for good measure
The problem here is that the acid in orange juice can also cause acid indigestion. Perhaps a bit of orange juice could be used to increase the rate of absorption of the food but the question was “what liquid doesn’t add volume while improving viscosity of the bun?”
For a 10 min challenge it's probably not going to make a difference in terms of digestion. What orange juice COULD do though is trick your brain into thinking it can eat more than it actually can through your taste receptor.
@@rogerdodger4212 maybe vinegar? Idk. They could maybe take it further and make it carbonated vinegar? And then have water as a palette cleanser? Would that work? Idk
Good job on the vid :D
Matt stonie is an such CZcamsr legend and amazing video man :]
4:09 I remember hearing cabbage is another choice for expanding the stomach, but I guess fruits containing a large volume of liquid would also suffice.
Lettuce is 98.5% water, cabbage is close at I think 97%, so still a lot of fluid
The gas would be epic

But imagine 2 Food Theorists contesting in the same Hot Dog Eating Challenge... Who wins?
Hey matpat, I just had a question while watching this, could someone with a higher metabolism eat more hotdogs than someone with a lower metabolism, or would your metabolism need to be so high that isnt not possible to have an effect on a contest?
MatPat is a brain burner!(Правдивое видео🇷🇺):..
czcams.com/video/eMvZPV5acww/video.html
I don't think that 10 minutes would be long enough for your metabolism to factor in much. It might help you practice without gaining a bunch of weight, though.
10 minutes isn't even enough for digestion to factor into the equation
Maybe it would help stave off the long term repercussions of eating so much food but it certainly wouldn't affect the actual competition
I'd assume unless you have the metabolism of a small car engine, metabolism probably wouldn't be much of a factor.
4:48 my favourite type of dunks, from the three point line
If a competitive eater used something that makes food move more quickly through the digestive system (like a laxative or something spicy they could add to the water or hot dogs) would it help to free up enough space fast enough for them to be able to eat more in the time frame they are given?
That's not how laxatives work. A laxative adds water to your poop to help it move out of your intestine faster; it doesn't do jack squat to the contents of your stomach. Also I don't know how spicy water would work at all ...? If anything it would actively make it worse by irritating your throat and stomach lining, which would make you significantly more likely to throw up (and iirc in eating contests, throwing up = instant disqualification).
Even if there was such a thing, promoting the abuse of drugs/medication as a means to set a new record is not acceptable. It would make using said drug into a hard requirement for competing at all, and that would destroy the bodies of competitors very quickly. (Look up laxative abuse; it literally kills people.) With competitions like this, either you do it clean or you don't do it at all.
What if they created a beverage that wasn’t quite a beverage, one that doesn’t soak the bun, but is dense enough to crush the bun into the hotdog? Would they have to make rules around what beverages are allowed, or would they allow it to keep the interest in the sport?

It'll only *sound* old for sure lol
I actually think diet Coke may be a good aid, as long as it's flat. The stomach swells by sweetness but the lack of sugar should make it easier to stuff in hot dogs
Remember the Megas XLR hotdog eating contest: use melted butter
its likely to be a liquid less dense than water, not more dense. ethanol would probably be great if it was allowed.
@@jonathanodude6660 that would very quickly get very toxic and cause you to vomit or die, depending on how fast you eat...

*What about personality?*
4:33 feeling called out right now, because at the exact moment I was doing just that
9:02 that line terrifies me because I can only imagine how teenagers will be 200 years from now. The Michael Phelps and Usain Bolts of the worlds will be something obtainable by high schoolers.

A strange idea my family stumbled across in a conversation recently: how much weed would an animal need to have in its bloodstream to register in yours after you eat it? For example, how much weed would a chicken have to ingest for you to get high from eating chicken? Is it possible? Can it even register in your bloodstream? Pretty hard to find info on that one. I'm definitely curious!
definitely a funny thought
Eating raw weed wont get anyone high. Raw weed contain only THCA. to get high the THCA need to be transformed in THC using heat so no matter how many weed the animal ingest, you will never get high from the meat
@@marc-antoinequessy5388 Could have the animal consume some edibles and then eat the animal
I feel like you would need to use a foie gras type strategy to get the animals to consume enough weed.

Great Video Matpat!
Finally! Closed Captions! Thank you matpat!
Here’s an idea for a future episode: does the temperature of your drinks actually change how it satisfies your thirst or is it all a psychological trick?
Ohhh that sound like a good idea like how hot doctor pepper different that normal doctor pepper
Haven't even seen it and already love it
10:30 i think some variation of edible oil could be a great replacement. oil is much lighter then water and would lubricate the hot dogs much easier
Use oil idea on top of my separate idea. Swing some oil to lube your throat. Chew and swallow a bunch of dogs. All while the buns sit in some acid (water, citrus (fruit), acetic (vinegar)). Drink the mush. All done. Fit more in and go faster.
ive been training for this
Oh yes, just the thing I needed.
Thank you for making these videos! I've had a tough past couple of years, and I'm sure everyone has. You really make everyone's day! We love you!

Have you thought about thick water? It's thicker to help with swallowing but it also should be less likely to be absorbed into something.
I just love this guy so enjoyable❤
I'm legitimately amazed that MattPat knows about Yuka Kinoshita!
3:42 and how much energy they’ll use up to do all of that
And how quickly their muscles move because they also need to move their hands into their mouths fast enough to get it all in there even though this variable might be completely useless if the speed of eating is too slow for human hands to need to move faster
I think the obvious first step towards that magical water replacer to give an extra edge would be, collecting your excess saliva prior to a competition so it'd be breaking down the bun not just "much like saliva" but exactly like! Maybe even dissovling some extra enzymes or something.
future episode idea: what is the healthiest food/drink
Hi mat it’s is love for South Africa 🇿🇦 I love your videos I can see all the research congrats you are my fav theroy CZcamsr thank you I’m second to see your video (thx for 7 likes)

What a coincidense, im literally eating hotdogs right now. Amazing content on the right time
Hotdog! A brand new food theory!
Merch idea
Food theory plates, bowls, silverware, and things like that
I’m curious if weight also plays a factor into it. I work at a hot dog restaurant, something specific we do is we steam our buns. When grabbing buns you can certainly feel a weight different on top of the steamed ones are softer. The toppings also factor into the weight too. We stack them in bags, typically those with cheese and sauce go on bottom as they are the densest.
We have been asked a lot about hot dog eating contests and the owner is against them just due to he doesn’t want a choking issue to occur with his company name on the contest.
