Bob Shoudt, a competitive eater from Royersford, won third place in the Hands-Free World Pumpkin Pie Eating Contest, writes Dale Anderson for The Buffalo News.

Shoudt managed to out-eat the eight other competitors for a prize of $250.

Bob holds several eating records.

This includes consuming 23.4 pounds or 312 fluid ounces of salmon chowder in 6 minutes to set the record for the most food ever eaten by weight and/or volume.

Bob says he’s a guy that loves food and “can probably eat more of it than anyone you know.”

He likes to try out different local restaurants, especially buffets, and can eat “upwards of 17 pounds (7.7 kg) of food” while he reviews the restaurant. He’ll then share his review online and tell you “what you should be eating.”

Molly Schuyler set a world record in the contest last year by consuming 48 pieces of pumpkin pie, and this year took home to Sacramento, California, a top prize of $1000 and a trophy.

2nd place winner Dan Kennedy from West Decatur, PA, took home $500.
