The Saltine Challenge

When MamaPea attempted the Saltine Challenge – 6 saltines in 60 seconds – I knew I wanted to try it as well. I love saltines!!

What a perfect opportunity than meeting MamaPea herself at Foodbuzz this weekend. Ashley, Allie and I joined her in a rematch attempt.

See who the master chewers are!

Flying home!

      I was smiling like that because my cheeks were STUFFED with Saltines. I got them all in but they weren’t going anywhere.

    Finally! I have been checking your and Mama Pea’s blogs everyday (not that I don’t anyway) to see who was victorious in the Saltine Challenge. My brothers and I used to do 10 saltines in 1:30 for ours. Only one of us was ever successful. Ah, good times…

    That’s awesome.

    I somehow talked my boyfriend into doing a “Parmesan cheese” challenge… We had like 5 cheese packets from Dominos and I said “I bet you can’t eat all of these packets of cheese in 60 seconds”… He was SURE it would be easy, he barely got two before he had to quit. It’s even on video. 🙂
