Bloke claims world record for downing Jaffa Cakes in three minutes – could you beat him?

A bloke reckons he’s smashed a world record by devouring an incredible 102 Jaffa Cakes in a gut-busting eating competition.

With a pint of warm water in hand Max Stanford, 35, shoved two of the tasty treats down his gob at a time, chomping past his own record of 88.

Also known as Max vs Food, he now claims that he’s set a new world record following his efforts last week.

Max and fellow contestants whiled away the minutes gulping the sweet treats down as quickly as possible – Max’s closest competitor, Food and the Beast, only managed 66.

Competitive scoffer Max managed to chow down 38 more Cakes than third-placed Kyle V Food who managed 64.

Meanwhile, in fourth, was Tunnysvsfood who still managed to eat a respectable 50 of the chocolate orange sweets.

Max’s total intake saw him ingest a whopping 4,692 calories in the process, making his recommended calorie intake for the day of 2.500 just a dot in his rearview mirror.

The competition at The George Pub and Grill in Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham isn’t his first victory though.

Max, from Brixton, southwest London, has also managed to put away a very impressive whole kilogram of popular children’s cereal Frosties in six minutes.

Max, said: “It went very, very well, I surprised myself. I beat my record from last year of 88.

“It wasn’t too bad eating that many. My tactic was eating and then using a lot of water and getting into a rhythm.

“Live events are so much better. I did a lot better because of that, with people cheering and you get to see the other competitors as well.”

“I really do like Jaffa Cakes. I’ve got some leftover that I’ll have with a cup of tea later.”

Craig Harker, founder of the British Eating League said: “What an event and what a start to the season with the first in-person eating contest.”
