Dutch Monkey Doughnut’s 6th annual doughnut eating contest

The 2011 DMD doughnut eating champion

Dutch Monkey Doughnut’s annual doughnut eating contest, the premier competitive eating contest for our area, is tomorrow. My son has entered the kid contest this year and is determined to win. Then again, this is the only chance he has each year to face plant into an extra gooey doughnut. What fun! My daughter refuses to attend after she witnessed a very young competitor have a roman incident last year.

The adult contest is all about speed, endurance and gluttony. We’re told three-time winner The Guru of Glaze has retired from the contest so a new champion will be crowned.

Where: Dutch Monkey Doughnuts, 3075 Ronald Reagan Pkwy, across from The Avenue Forsyth The Collection at Forsyth
