One time they had a hot dog contest. Hot dogs were way too hot. Like not just warm, actually burning hot. First bite burned the roof of my mouth right away. There was steam coming off them and nobody thought to wait or anything. Just started the contest like that was normal.
After that it was just bad. Every bite kept hitting the same burned spot and it got worse and worse. The buns kept the heat in so it didn’t help at all. Water didn’t fix it either. Just had to keep going while your mouth was already messed up.
Whole thing turned into trying to eat through pain instead of actually competing. Mouth was wrecked after and stayed like that for a couple days.
Honestly should have just let them cool down first. Would have fixed the whole problem. Had to go through insurance.
