YouTube stars visit KC Finns for food challenge
JACKSON, Tenn.—Professional food eaters head into West Tennessee for a tasty challenge.
Popular food influencers Katina Eats Kilos and Randy Santel are here visiting West Tennessee for the KC Finn’s food challenge. This competition was open to the public.
Participants must finish six pounds of beef along with a pound and a half of fries plus a couple of sodas. The winners get their meal for free, a t-shirt and their name and photo on the hall of fame.
“Back in December of 2018, I came here and actually beat the Base Big Burger Challenge here and my fiancé Katina Eats Kilos does food challenges for YouTube as well, so she had never been here and I love the burgers here,” Santel said.
“It was a lot of fun but I was really really nervous because I’m not that great at eating burgers, surprisingly. They’re kind of a tricky one for me but this one was really really delicious. The cheese was awesome on it. There was like 16 pieces of cheese on eight smash patties so it went down really really easy. And the diet coke was really refreshing at the end. At the end, I think I shed a tear it was so beautiful,” Katina said.
Both competitors have eaten food professionally for years with their social media posts amazing over 3 million fans across the country.
Katina Eats Kilos and Randy Santel both won at this weekend’s challenge.
