2012-02-01: Thanks again to my
dear fan Mia de Vega from the Philippines, who set up my Facebook page (http://tinyurl.com/SonyaTBW). I enjoy the questions, many of which are very thoughtful.
Recently, fan Peter Ferm asked what
is my favorite food. Actually, I have so many favorites, but the three that first came to mind are Sushi, Korean
Hot Pot Soup, and Burger King French Fries! Now I'm hungry! Thanks Peter.
I'm often asked about
my next contest (most recently by fan Brian Hennessey). As a rule, out of superstition, I don't usually discuss
upcoming events. However, I will be competing in the CP Biggest Eater Finals, Feb 12, in Bangkok, Thailand, eating Shrimp
Wontons. (Oh, I love Shrimp Wontons, and I'll be trying to put up a decent number.) A handful of us
Major League Eating eaters will participate, but the focus is primarily on local male and female qualifier winners throughout
Asia--Singapore, Austrailia, Hong Kong, and Bangkok, who will meet each other in the finals. It will be fun.
