Kobayashi sets Twinkie-eating record on “The Wendy Williams Show”

Wendy Williams has embarked on a quest to “Save the Twinkie” (I didn’t know the Hostess treat was in danger of extinction; in fact, if rumors are to be believed, it will be around long after the nuclear holocaust, but whatever). As part of this quest, on today’s Wendy Williams Show, Wendy invited competitive eater Takeru Kobayashi to try to set an official record for the most Twinkies eaten within a minute. On hand was an official representative from the Guinness World Records organization to monitor the proceedings, and here’s what went down — including 14 Twinkies into Kobayashi’s gullet.
