"Wes the Mess" and the Baby Food Eating Challenge

June 30, 2006

How hard can this be?
It's only 20 4-oz jars of baby food.

Troy D, Ellerbe and Allen Thomas salute "Wes the Mess" at the console.

Troy D, Ellerbe, Allen Thomas and Wes Hines discuss the ground rules for the imminent gastronomic competition.

While projecting a calm demeanor, just as a Thoroughbred eager to respond to the whip, Wes Hines is a coil spring of energy awaiting the command from Allen Thomas to "EAT!"

The race against the clock begins!

The first jar is always easy.

Only a pro would attempt this without a bib.

Wes wishes he had a bigger spoon.

Wes makes steady progress toward a new world record.

Ten down the hatch, ten to go!

Official Timekeeper Allen Thomas keeps Wes apprised of the remaining time.

Wes glares at jar Number 13.
The spirit was willing, but Wes couldn't continue.

Wes is still a champion in our book!
"Good Job", Wes!
