Each year on Independence Day, hungry patriots gather for two mouthy matches of who can devour a quintessential summer food of America—hamburgers! Nobody knows the thrill of the chomp better than reigning champion and mother of four, Molly Schuyler, who traveled from California to our nation’s Capitol to chow down on some burgers at the Annual Independence Burger Eating Championship, presented by Z-Burger. Schuyler faced off against 13 of America’s top eaters in Friday’s competition, including her meat nemesis, Dan ‘Killer’ Kennedy, who ultimately tied her for first place after both competitors scarfed down 34 burgers in 10 minutes—just one shy of her record-breaking 35.
