Joey Chestnut out of hotdog eating contest. Thanks Libs

"MLE said in a statement: “We are devastated to learn that Joey Chestnut has chosen to represent a rival brand that sells plant-based hot dogs rather than competing in the 2024 Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest."

Wow! The wiener wars are heating up. Sad to see an innocent wiener man like Joey get caught up in the carnage...
 
I feel like you should be blaming capitalism instead of the libs. The man chose to go with who is more than likely paying him more. #followthemoney
Yep, for sure a money thing and Joey Chestnut is my favorite wiener eater but MLE is in the right here. Eating fake meat in a hot dog eating contest is about as UnAmerican as it comes. Don't be a pussy, Joey.
 
Not clicking on the artcile, but what is the deal here?

He's not going to compete because they use a brand of hot dog that he doesn't endorse?
 
Who would win an eat a hotdog and run 100m race between Joey chestnut and Usain Bolt? I think chestnut would smoke him.
Are you saying they eat a set number of hot dogs then run 100m? (or vice versa. Doesn't matter)

Of course Chestnut would win. In a straight up 100m race, Bolt would win by 5 or 6 seconds. In any contest eating 20 or more hot dogs, Chestnut would beat Bolt by way more than 5 or 6 seconds.
 
Very sad to see Joey want to stuff vegan wieners in his mouth. That's only one step removed from stuffing other dudes' wieners in your mouth.
To be fair, the non-vegan wieners are much closer to a real dick since they’re both actual meat. So using logic, you’re the gay one for eating real meat in phallic form, not Joey.

Enjoy your dicks and buns.

I haven't ever had a vegan hot dog before, but it's gotta be better quality than most of hot dogs I've eaten in my life.

Give me the Chicago Dog toppings and it's alright alright alright

Eat one hotdog then run 100m.

Nathan's hotdogs sponsors the event and Joey took some kind of deal with a vegan hotdog maker. It makes sense Nathan's wouldn't want him competing in their contest. It's a similar reason Nebraska athletes can only wear Adidas apparel.
