7 saltines in 1 minute

This eating test of strength really surprised me last week.

I was in Chicago at a work meeting last week. During dinner on Thursday, I was told that it was impossible to eat 7 saltine crackers in 1 minute.

I've heard a lot of these tests before but not one so seemingly easy. After a couple of sips of my Hurricane and some support of my coworkers, I was ready to put this to a challenge.

As you can see, it's easier said than done. After 2 crackers, all of the moisture in your mouth is gone. The trick here is to eat and swallow the crackers one at a time. This is what happens when you try the "shove them all in" method.

you can barely see the cracker dust being sprayed out as I try to contain my laughter.
