How much food are you willing to stuff down your throat to be a part owner of this restaurant? Mexican restaurant Don Chingon is holding a contest that challenges diners to finish a 30-pound-burrito in exchange for a 10% stake of the restaurant.
It's massive. Owner Victor Robey says, 'If you're going to eat a massive amount of food in a single-sitting, you deserve real compensation.'
Created by chef German Villatoro, it is called the Gran Chingon, and it is stuffed with four meats - steak, chicken, carnitas, and chorizo, and has rice, beans, cheese and salsa.
Those who want to partake will have to pay $150 to enter and one hour to finish the 30-pound monster. Bathroom breaks, and vomiting, means immediate disqualification.
The restaurant said it will not be responsible for "death or illness,' which might just happen to some. That's a lot of food!

The best wellness properties now split into distinct styles. Pick what actually matches your needs instead of accepting whatever standard package gets thrown at you. Here are some ideas to focus your holiday around. Read more
