Needless to say, the amount of raw sugar I had had alone was enough to make me have to have a garbage can next to me for most of the day. I literally had to keep going at IRI, ready to ralph. A few times it got bad, and I had to sit down.

When it was all said and done, I forfeited due to my sinuses burning, my gut full, and my knowledge of Dave's endless tummy renewed. Mr. Lavery, you have won your bet.

"C'mon Amanda, this eating doughnuts, not rocket science."
"He's better than me at both!"
Miss Morrison, you are most gracious in defeat. Well played. You did very well, and with a little off-season work on an appropriate training program, you will be ready for the next IRI Challenge (we will do it again with a quart of milk as a chaser ). (and thanks, Brandon, for the great video!) My only regret is that when I went back for some more Twinkies a little later, they were all gone (Tytus got to them first!).

All Krispy-Kreme-related teasing aside, Amanda did a FANTASTIC job with the talent show and other elements of IRI, and has my complete respect. She may not be able to consume way-too-many pieces of fat-fried dough as quickly as some, but she can organize, align, cajole, prod, and direct a massive group of misfit performers (and judges) better than anyone I know!
