She’s frankly the best.
Miki Sudo refused to let go of her coveted Mustard Belt after scarfing down an incredible 33 glizzies at the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, which took place on Saturday morning.
Sudo also inhaled 33 to win last year’s competition, which was a far cry away from the record-breaking 51 she ingested in 2024.
Despite winning her 11th Mustard Belt in 2025, Sudo said at the time she felt like she “let the fans down a little” because she didn’t break her own record.
Sudo, 40, has been the eater-to-beat in the women’s bracket since she first competed back in 2014, winning every competition she’s been in.
The Florida woman is graduate of the state’s Hillsborough College and has a dental hygiene degree.
Sudo partner, Nick Wehry, is also a competitive eater. “When they’re not racking up records on the professional competitive eating circuit or searching for America’s Next Best Food Challenge, The Hungry Couple aids in restaurant promotions and enjoys an active lifestyle in their home state of Florida with their infant son Max and American Bully, Dennis,” they say on their website.
The only one she missed was in 2021 when she was pregnant, paving the way for Michelle Lesco to claim the win, with 30.75 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes that year.
Lesco landed in second place with 22.
The 42-year-old from Tucson, AZ, who earned the nickname “Cardboard Shell,” is a senior manager of Youth Services at the Volunteer Center of Southern Arizona.
