Joey Chestnut Returns to Nathan’s Hot Dog Contest After Year Hiatus
Joey Chestnut is widely regarded as the greatest competitive eater in history, particularly known for his dominance in Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, where he has won 17 titles out of 18 appearances. After a one-year absence in 2024 due to a sponsorship dispute involving Impossible Foods and Major League Eating, Chestnut returned in 2025 to reclaim his title by consuming 70.5 hot dogs in 10 minutes, surpassing his competitors by a wide margin. Chestnut holds over 50 world records across various eating disciplines and has set multiple hot dog records, including the current world record of 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes. His career totals include eating more than 1,200 hot dogs at Nathan's contest alone, and he is recognized not only for his eating prowess but also for pushing human limits in competitive eating. Despite challenges such as age and physical toll, Chestnut remains a larger-than-life figure and a symbol of American tradition and competitive spirit. His rivalry with past contenders like Takeru Kobayashi and recent champions like Patrick Bertoletti highlights the global and evolving nature of the sport.
