Takeru Kobayashi polished off 83 of the steamed vegetarian dumplings in eight minutes, easily beating Hong Kong's Johnny Wu into second place with 76. Mr Kobayashi will take on the best six competitors in a final pork bun eating race on Sunday.

"Food fight" got a lot of popularity in Japan because of those amazing "food fighters"(surprisingly and interestingly, great food fighters are all "thin"(50-60kg) and those who look like sumo wrestlers(more than 100kg) don't eat as much.), and they got on a lot of food fighting shows until one junior high student tried to copy them and choked on food and died. Ever since then, we haven't seen them on TV. I really miss the food fighting show...
