People left 'terrified after woman accepts 45 minute 'monster' burrito challenge

Aprofessional eater has made chins hit the floor as she became the first person to ever succeed to finish the 45 minute 'monster' burrito challenge, making some 'terrified' in the process.

Professional eater Katina documented her journey as she travelled to Van Buren in Arkansas, US, to attempt a 'monster' 32 inch burritochallenge which is offered at Las Fresas Mexican Grill. Having successfully won several other eating challenges, including beating burger-eating records and often going viral online for eating large amounts of food at once, this dish proved to be no challenge for Katina.

"Now, this bad boy is undefeated right now, and it is undefeated for a reason," Katina said in her TikTokvideo. "This baby weighs in at right about eight pounds and is absolutely loaded with da meats. There is steak, chicken, chorizo, and then on top as you can see there's a bunch of their scrimps.

"It is also loaded with a pound of rice, a pound of refried beans, and two pounds of French fries. Everything is then topped with a bunch of guacamole, sour cream, and then on the side, I do have a big bowl of their queso and some sides of their chilli Colorado and chilli verde," she added, explaining she had to finish all the sauces as well within the 45 minute challenge and win her free meal along with a T-shirt and the first spot of their Wall of Fame.

She quickly started on the challenge, deciding to start with the decorative shrimp on top.

"Oh, those are nice," she said after devouring the first one and quickly eating a second one. She then went on to dip one into the bowl of queso next to her, before saying it was just as good.

After finishing off the scrimps, she shared her planned strategy, which was to start by cutting up a slice of each corner first, in order for the burrito to still have some support when eating it. She quickly devoured her first chunk of the burrito, before moving on to the other folded side, adding sauces to her bites as she went along.

"So, delicious flavour aside, this was one of the more intimidating things that I've ever witnessed being built as a food challenge," Katina shared. "The more they kept piling inside this burrito, the more nervous I got and I began to realise exactly why this thing was undefeated. This thing was an absolute monster."

However, Katina didn't have to go through the challenge alone, as the other people inn the restaurant kept cheering her on as she continued to finish her second cut of the burrito, marking she was half way through the challenge. However, the second half proved to be more difficult as the burrito now had open holes on both sides, leading to more of the fillings falling onto the plate below her.

The longer she went on, the more sauce she added to her bites as she realised just how much of it she still had left. But she soon finished the last bites of the burrito, and moved on to pour the last of the queso out over the fallout bits on her plate to finish with a knife and fork.

And with an impressive 15 minutes to spare, Katina finished the 'monster burrito' challenge, marking her the first to ever beat the challenge.

While several people were impressed, with many cheering for her in the restaurant, some of the 29 million TikTok viewers took to the comments to express their thoughts.

"Knowing the size of the human stomach this is terrifying," one person commented. A second person asked what happens after Katina finished a challenge, writing: "Serious question: do you have to wait a couple days to be able to feel hungry again?"

Another person pointed out: "An 8lb burrito and 3 sauces in 29 minutes is like a pound consumed every 3 minutes."

"You lost me at fries. I feel like they added those to fail people. No upstanding Mexican chef would add fries… maybe in a BREAKFAST burrito but not a dinner burrito," a fourth person wrote.
