If you think that only a large man can become a record holder for speed eating, then you are deeply mistaken.

It turns out that even petite women can win “gastronomic” competitions.

For example, Sonya Thomas from the USA. Her height is 152 centimeters, and her weight is 47.5 kilograms.

Despite her apparent fragility, the American woman has set many records related to eating food at speed.

Back in the last century, an American woman set a record for the fastest time she ate boiled eggs: 65 in 400 seconds.

In the summer of 2000, Thomas managed to eat 35 sausages in 10 minutes. At that time, this figure was also a world record.

And a few months later, the woman managed to consume more than four dozen lobsters in 12 minutes.

In the fall of 2010, Thomas won a chicken wing-eating competition, eating 181 wings in 12 minutes.

It is worth noting that the American managed to beat a 104-kilogram, 188-centimeter man who consumed “only” 169 chicken wings.
