Culture Buzz The world champ goes in to taste test some coffee and ends up drinking 42 cups. More shocking, however, is the total disregard in mentioning Kobayashi's incredible peep feat in their graphic. Snub city.
Culture Buzz And he kicks BuzzFeed's ass. Just in time for Easter, here's competitive eating legend Takeru Kobayashi (Kobe to his friends) mopping the floor with me in the Marshmallow Peep Thunderdome. The previous world record for Peeps in 30 seconds is 7. Kobayashi does slightly better. I do not.

The Washington Post has a yearly Peeps diorama contest, and here are this year's winners! With over 1,100 submissions, it makes me glad to think Peeps are being used for something better than just inflating in the microwave. Can we stop talking about Peeps now?
