Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What is the name of the TV show where the host, Adam Richman, travels to different US cities taking food challenges? He tries to eat an enormous amount of food in a short period of time.

Answer: Man v. Food

The Layover and No Reservations are both hosted by Anthony Bourdain. Bizarre Foods is hosted by Andrew Zimmern.

2. Which food listed below will Andrew Zimmern, host of Bizarre Foods, NOT eat?

Answer: Durian fruit

Andrew Zimmern tried to eat Durian fruit on a couple episodes of Bizarre Foods, but had to spit it out due to the foul odor. Durian is native to Southeast Asia and really does smell bad in my opinion. My favorite hotel in Thailand will not allow guests to bring durian on their property if that is an indication of the smell.

3. What brand of hot dogs are used in the annual hot dog eating contest held July 4th at Coney Island, New York? Think of the sponsor of the contest.

Answer: Nathan's

This contest has been an annual event since 1972 and is held at the original Nathan's Hotdog location in Coney Island, New York. The contest is aired on TV and has had over 40,000 spectators attend the event.

4. It is Thanksgiving time. I ate too much. What should I do?

Answer: Wait and allow the stomach discomfort to lessen

Rest a while. If the discomfort is unbearable, seek medical attention. Now once your discomfort is gone, it's time for a second helping and dessert.

5. Remember the 1970's commercial where the sickly looking guy sitting on the edge of the bed says, "I can't believe I ate the whole thing?" That's a classic commercial, but for which product?

Answer: Alka-Seltzer

I love that commercial. It aired in 1972 and is in the CLIO Hall of Fame. This commercial was remade in 2005 with Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts from the TV show, "Everybody Loves Raymond". Alka-Seltzer had another memorable commercial that first aired in 1971. Remember the catchy phrase, "try it, you'll like it"? That's from another classic Alka-Seltze commercial that is in the CLIO Hall of Fame too.

6. Which product has the slogan "betcha can't eat just one"?

Answer: Lay's potato chips

The H.W. Lay & Company (makers of Lay's potato chips) merged with Frito Company (makers of Fritos corn chips) in 1961 to form Frito-Lay. Lay's signature slogan is "Betcha can't eat just one." As of 2012, Frito-Lay makes up 59% of the US snack chip market.

7. What is the name of the guy (character name) who says "I can't believe I ate the whole thing" in the famous 1972 commercial?

Answer: Ralph

His name is Ralph. He's sitting on the side of the bed and his wife is laying in bed with her back to him. Ralph moans "I can't believe I ate the whole thing. I can't believe I ate the whole thing." His wife responds "You ate it Ralph". Ralph promptly feels so much better after taking the advertised Alka-Seltzer.

8. What animated (cartoon) character quoted in his yearbook, "I can't believe I ate the whole thing"?

Answer: Homer Simpson

In "The Simpsons" 12th episode of season 2, "The Way We Was", Marge and Homer reminisce about how they they met and fell in love in high school. In their yearbook under Homer's picture is the quote "I can't believe I ate the whole thing". This episode aired in 1991 and had the highest Neilsen rating for that week on the Fox network.

9. How many hot dogs and buns did Joey Chestnut eat in 2012 to win the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest?

Answer: 68

Joey Chestnut ate 68 hot dogs and buns in ten minutes. Joey has won the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest six consecutive years, from 2007 to 2012. He trains by fasting and stretching his stomach by consuming large amounts of water and milk.

10. Who set a women's record by eating 45 hot dogs and buns during the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in 2012?

Answer: Sonya Thomas

Sonya Thomas ate 40 hot dogs and buns in the contest in 2011. She has won numerous competitive eating contests, including the 2011 and 2012 Women's Compeition Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in 2012.
