The research from the University of Michigan ranked nearly 6000 foods based on their impact on human health. That research did not serve the hot dog justice, which could not have been good news for the world record holder in hot dogs eaten in 10 minutes. At the most recent Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island, Joey Chestnut ate 76 hot dogs. That’s already about 45 hours taken off his life according to this study’s findings. The internet then went wild with memes surrounding the hot dog eating champ.
Joey Chestnut was trending on twitter and eventually the immortal man himself responded to the study. Looks like he’s going to be eating more nuts.
