Did you enjoy seeing eight professional eaters from the MLE slobber down two pounds of bologna? If you want to see what round two has to bring, you’re in luck. It just happened, and we’re gonna talk about it.

The second round of the MLE’s Quarantine Eating Challenge was an intense one. Sure Oreos and milk sounds delicious, but you could almost see the pain on the eater’s faces as they pounded them down. Let’s take a more in-depth look at what happened last night.

If you missed Part One of this MLE Quarantine Challenge, watch it here.

The MLE professional eaters are at it again. After tackling two pounds of bologna on Friday, they are now taking things a bit on the sweeter side. In last night’s episode of the MLE Quarantine Eating Challenge, the professional eaters tackled 48 Oreos and a half-gallon of milk. Oh boy.

Of course, introductions were made and rules were set; those rules were:

  • Each competitor got 48 Oreo cookies and a 1/2 gallon of milk
  • The first competitor to finish was the winner
  • They were allowed extra beverages
  • Time penalties for spillage and being overly messy with it

Following the rules, they showed us how the brackets were working:

  • The #1 seed Gideon Oji was facing the #8 seed Badlands Booker
  • The #2 seed Joey Chestnut was facing the #7 seed Michelle Lesco
  • The #3 seed Miki Sudo was facing the #6 seed Nick Wehry
  • The #4 seed Matt Stonie was facing the #5 seed Darron Breeden

They set up the competitions so we could see two face-offs at a time. First up was Oji vs. Booker and Stonie vs. Breeden (the left side of the bracket).

The second set of face-offs that we saw was Chestnut vs. Lesco and Sudo vs. Wehry (the right side of the bracket).

I can’t imagine how these people did it. They were NOT allowed to dunk their Oreo cookies into their milk to make it softer. Some competitors had their 1/2 gallon of milk separated into respective glasses/containers, while others just drank it straight up from the 1/2 gallon itself.

Without giving too much away here, I’ll say that some favorites won and some favorites lost.
